Alien paradise

Anthony stared out the window for a while before asking, "Is this all right? Why does it feel like nothing happened?"

"It is true that nothing will happen, because the absorption channel just opened is real-time and does not jump any time." Cui Zhenen explained, "We only have one chance, so we must wait until the moment of implementation before we jump."

"I understand, what we are practicing now is just the opening process, right?"

"Well, what was the result just now?" She looked at Lao Gao.

"The aperture appeared two seconds late, and you failed to catch the first wave of the explosion." Gao Wei shook his head, "In addition, the pilot also needs to practice. It is best to determine a fixed route, and the final distance is changed to a flat one." It’s more appropriate to fly.”

Anthony picked up the phone without saying a word, "Hey, I couldn't fly just now. Now go back and approach the coordinate point again. Then fix the direction and speed. In the end, you have to fly levelly!"

"Uh...ok boss!"

He hung up the phone and spread his hands slightly helplessly, "I used to fly fighter jets. I recruited them after I was fired from the army. It's easy to drive fast, but it's more difficult to drive slowly."

"The reason why he was expelled is..." Zhang Zhiyuan asked curiously.

"The officer above came to inspect the army and wanted to take some photos on a fighter jet. He looked very tough, but he ended up vomiting. Of course, this is not entirely the young man's fault. Who told that guy to say that he was a tough guy? Let’s fly in actual combat.”

The three of them were speechless.

"Speaking of which, I checked the 1961 nuclear test record when I went to the cockpit. It seems that the detonation point data is different from the coordinates on the note?" Anthony returned to business and asked, "Will this be effective? "

"It's indeed different, but this set of data was issued by the paradise." Gao Weili said with some surprise - he found that this person seemed to be rough, but in fact he also had a careful side.

"If you say that, then there shouldn't be any problem." Anthony didn't delve further.

However, Gao Wei still didn't say anything, that is, they also asked Paradise the same question, and the latter's answer was that this set of data came from a confidential military database of a neighboring country.

Next comes the practice of repetition.

Until Choi Jung-eun completely mastered the starting rhythm of Ouroboros.

…

On the other side, the Comprehensive Prevention and Control Center is also using supercomputers for final verification.

Various shock waves generated by super-large explosions appear repeatedly on the big screen, but there is an empty section below them, which seems to be blocked by something. The empty section is where the simulated Ouroboros absorbs the explosion energy. Effect. As the barrier moves up and down, the impact of the shock wave on the ground changes dramatically.

"Mr. Xue, this is the result of simulation calculation." A researcher handed the report to him, "Do you need me to explain it to you?"

"Sorry, I'm not very good at this." Xue Quan said politely.

"Assuming that this barrier can completely absorb the energy directed at it, then when it is close to the center of the explosion, the captured energy will be greater. When the distance is less than one meter, the maximum value given by the supercomputer is 46.7%, which is equivalent to the lower hemisphere Most of the energy will be absorbed. After that, every 100 meters away, the energy directed at it will drop by an order of magnitude. After more than 1,000 meters, you can only get 5-6% of the energy of the explosion at most."

"Can I simply understand that at the closest distance, an equivalent of 25 million tons will be absorbed?"

"You can understand it that way." The researcher smiled, "But it is more appropriate to use joules at this time."

"What about the target's damage effect?"

"If this part of the energy is released again, an area of ​​nearly 50 meters on the mountain will be vaporized, and the rocks in the range of 50 to 300 meters will be completely melted. However, the damage of the shock wave is much greater than the high temperature, which may cause this The hill completely disintegrated - after all, its parameters were given very strangely. The cone-shaped body with a height of 700 meters and a base diameter of more than 2.5 kilometers is really a bit... flat." The other party made a gesture of spreading his fingers, "You understand. Like a spread pancake, it easily breaks when faced with severe impact."

"What is the limit that cannot be destroyed?" Xue Quan asked while looking through the report.

"Page 6, if it exceeds four hundred meters, this part of the energy may not be able to shake the mountain - of course, this also depends on the geological composition of the mountain itself. If it is a granite site, then it will have to be reduced by another hundred meters. .”

"Isn't it better that the error height should not exceed three hundred meters..." He finished flipping through the report and extended his hand to the researcher, "Thank you very much. This simulation test is quite useful."

"You're welcome, it's just work." The latter smiled and shook hands with him, "But this simulation is really strange. If I understand correctly, it is to use a super nuclear bomb to blow up a very small low mountain... detonate The height is still so low, in what scenarios can it be used?”

Xue Quan looked at him and didn't answer.

"Oh, it must be a confidentiality policy, right?" The other party immediately reacted, "Sorry, pretend I didn't ask."

Seeing that he was about to return to the office, Xue Quan stopped him again, "By the way, I have another question. If this wave of explosions was really intercepted by 46.7%, would outside observers notice this?"

"Well...it depends on how far away it is. After all, its upper shock wave is still intact. Observers on the horizon can still see the light and smoke columns produced when it exploded, and electronic equipment will also be affected by the EMP. . But it is missing the shock wave in the lower half, and no data will be obtained from seismic measurements. In addition, if there is a target on the ground, it will basically be preserved intact. In other words, this anomaly will be discovered sooner or later. .”

"I understand, thank you."

As Xue Quan turned to leave, an idea emerged in his mind. Naturally, the earth would not care whether a nuclear explosion was fifty million tons or twenty-five million tons of TNT. The animals and plants in Novaya Zemlya and the surrounding areas would definitely be grateful for this. Action, what about humans? At that time, the two superpowers were in a sharp cold confrontation. What kind of disturbance would an "invalid nuclear test" that would be noticed sooner or later cause?

He doesn't know the answer.

This is an area beyond the reach of past experience.

He could only hope from the bottom of his heart that the world would not deviate from this.

…

The next morning, 7:30.

After refueling at Serekova Airport, the Gulfstream G700 took off again for Novaya Zemlya.

Judging from the remaining time, they will be able to start implementing this plan around 9 o'clock, which is 4-5 hours earlier than the estimated deadline of the park.

At this time, the sun rose from the east and the weather gradually improved. Cui Zhenen could already see the dark green land below through the clouds. After another half an hour, the sea also emerged from the mist. It stretched all the way along the northwest mountains, as if it embraced the whole world in its arms. She knew that there were actually several seas, such as the Barents Sea, the Kara Sea, the Laptev Sea, the Norwegian Sea, etc... But without the dividing lines on the map, there was no difference between them, visually. They are all equally magnificent. Silver white, blue gray and dark green blend with each other to form the eternal theme color of this area.

"If you're sleepy, you can have a cup of coffee." Anthony said, "I can make any type of coffee here."

"Thank you, I'm actually fine." Cui Zhenen waved her hands and smiled, "Staying up late is a common occurrence for me, and this is nothing at all."

"Really, what about you two?"

"We don't need it either." Gao Wei and Zhang Zhiyuan shook their heads together.

"Are you being polite to me? Okay, I'll have a cup for myself." Anthony picked up the phone and was about to ask the private attendant to make a cup of coffee when the driver's urgent voice suddenly interrupted!

"Boss, we are in trouble!"

"Can there be trouble in the sky? What are you talking about?"

"I'll play it directly for you!"

As soon as the pilot finished speaking, a burst of noisy electrical interference came from the cabin speakers.

"Zizi... This is the Northern Fleet base on Novaya Zemlya. You have entered the air force exercise restricted area. Please change course and leave immediately."

"Repeat, you have entered the exercise restricted area, please leave immediately!"

"Fart!" Anthony yelled, "I just came here last night, why didn't I see him mention it? When I applied for the route before, I didn't mention that there was a no-air plan here!"

"I guess their radar is not turned on. They didn't detect us at all last night, but they only saw us directly today." The pilot switched back to the intercom channel, "Boss, what should we do now?"

Anthony returned to his seat and pulled out the seat belt from behind, "Have you forgotten all your previous skills?"

"No, I always remember it."

"Very good, don't worry about the bullshit warning, just rush in!" He said with a cold face, "From now on, this is a fighter jet!"
