Earth Era

After Li Yunfan's familiar, somewhat lazy voice came out, Zhao Lan clearly noticed that Zhou Xiaoming, An Liya, and Cruz's breathing paused for a moment. The communication equipment returned to silence, and An Liya immediately screamed: "Boss, where have you been during this time? Why haven't you contacted us in several years?"

An Liya's words caused a ripple in Zhao Lan's heart: "Hey... yes, it has been several years since my Sylvia spaceship was stolen by Li Yunfan, and it has been several years since the first star disappeared abnormally. It’s time…”

After An Liya, Zhou Xiaoming and Cruise also shouted at the same time: "Boss, where have you been?"

After the communication delay, Li Yunfan's voice came over again. This time, there was a bitter smile in Li Yunfan's voice: "It's a long story...Some incredible things happened to me. "

Zhao Lan listened quietly, Zhou Xiaoming, An Liya, and Cruz also remained quiet, and Li Yunfan's words continued to come out from the communication equipment. Li Yunfan kept talking for more than half an hour before he finished telling what happened to him.

"That's what happened." Li Yunfan said, "I inexplicably entered another empty universe, and only with the help of the spatial fluctuations caused by cutting off the connection between Lobachevsky space and earth space, I could You can return to our universe from this empty universe. Therefore, saving the earth and human civilization is the same thing as helping me escape from this empty universe. I asked Zhao Lan to contact you because I want you to cooperate with Zhao Lan. Find a way to transport this black hole from the base to the space node."

It took Zhou Xiaoming and the other three several minutes to digest the information Li Yunfan told them. After finally sorting it all out, Cruise wiped his sweat and said: "Boss, I think Rodriguez, the head of the base, should be included in this operation. After all, he has always been in charge of things at the base and the black hole. Yes, he knows the situation of the base best."

Li Yunfan replied: "Yes. Before I fell into the empty universe, I had already decided to raise Rodriguez's trust level to A+ level. But before I had time to announce this matter, I felt that There was an accident.”

"Okay boss, I will contact Rodriguez right away. Ask him to come to this meeting." An Liya immediately took out a communication device and waited for a while. He said to the instrument: "Rodriguez, please come to the following coordinates quickly... I have important things to discuss with you about the boss."

"Okay, I'll be there soon." Rodriguez's voice was as calm as ever in the communication equipment.

Just like Rodriguez said, it took less than an hour for him to arrive here. Zhao Lan had long been accustomed to the vast magical powers of this group of people, so he didn't feel strange at all.

"Hello, Ms. Zhao Lan." Rodriguez greeted Zhao Lan politely after entering. Then he turned around and asked Zhou Xiaoming and the others: "Where is the boss?"

"Here." Zhou Xiaoming pointed to the communication device next to Zhao Lan, and Cruz took over the conversation: "Rodriguez, please sit down first. The matter is a bit complicated. I need to explain it to you first. one time."

An Liya said: "Rodriguez, the boss has just announced that your trust level has been raised to A+ level. From now on, you are the most trusted person by the boss besides the adventurer team."

Rodriguez's eyes widened a bit, then returned to normal. He nodded. He grabbed a chair and sat down: "I will not let the boss down. Now, please tell me what happened to the boss."

"Let me tell you." Cruz said, repeating Li Yunfan's words to Rodriguez.

Rodriguez's psychological quality seems to be better. After listening to Cruise's story. Rodriguez held his chin in his hand and thought quietly for a moment. Then he opened his mouth, and his voice was still as calm as ever: "So, boss, what's your plan? What should we do?"

An Liya said: "The pigs in the scientific research department insist that relying on the explosion of a large-yield hydrogen bomb is enough to completely cut off the connection between Lobachevsky space and the earth space, while the boss believes that the only way is to rely on the explosion of a black hole is enough to meet the energy needs. Whether the connection between Lobachevsky space and earth space can be cut off is related to whether the boss can successfully return to the normal universe. Therefore, what we need to do is to transfer the human government to Under the premise of concealing the past, reduce the mass of the black hole to about 100,000 tons, and then secretly transport it to that key space node. Rodriguez, the matter of the black hole and the base has always been your responsibility. I am in charge. So, do you have any suggestions on how to reduce the mass of the black hole to about 100,000 tons without attracting government attention?"

Rodriguez thought silently for a moment, then shook his head and said: "I can't think of any way. We can't accomplish this without attracting the attention of the government. You have to know, changing the mass of a black hole from 100 million tons Reducing the level to 100,000 tons is not something that can be accomplished in a short time. We must turn the power of the instrument to the maximum and work with all our strength for at least more than a year to complete this. It is okay to hide it from the government for a day or two, Hiding it for more than a year...that's impossible."

"Because in the process of reducing the mass of the black hole, a large amount of energy will be emitted in the form of heat. This heat is so much that it may even completely change the ecological environment of a small area. According to my estimation, even in winter, in In areas with a radius of at least 100 kilometers around the base, the temperature will remain at about 30 degrees Celsius above zero. Vegetation will not wither, green will not turn yellow, there will be no snow, and animals will not hibernate... What, how is this? Possibly a hidden past?”

Zhao Lan also knew this. When Rodriguez was telling these things, Zhao Lan was also thinking about this issue. But like Rodriguez, Zhao Lan has not found any feasible solution. If it was during the feudal era, climate changes in a certain small area might be able to conceal the past, but in modern society where technology has developed to such an extent, this is impossible. Not to mention the satellites in the sky, even a flying car passing by by chance can detect something abnormal here when it sees that the plants on the ground that should be withered are still green.

Zhou Xiaoming and the other three looked at each other and nodded silently. Obviously, they also agree with what Rodriguez said. Since the human government will never tolerate the existence of a black hole, it will occupy the entire base once discovered. There is no way to transport a black hole with a mass of 100 million tons, and reducing the mass of the black hole will attract the attention of the government... This The problem seems to have become a dead end, and there is no way to solve it.

"Is it possible to channel this dissipated energy to other places?" Zhao Lan asked.

"This is an idea to solve the problem, but it is not feasible." Rodriguez shook his head. "This requires a lot of engineering construction and the most stringent diversion design. This will not take just ten or eight years. It’s something that can be accomplished. It’s something that can’t be done in time. And even if it’s possible in time, I don’t think it’s any less difficult than the current problem to hide such a large-scale project.”

"It is indeed like this." mechanical expert Cruz said, "I just made some calculations in my mind based on the intensity of the heat dissipated, local geology, and mountainous construction data. The conclusion is that the difficulty is It will only be higher than what Rodriguez said.”

"Then what should we do..." The atmosphere in the room suddenly became dull. This is a very difficult problem, but it is also the most basic. If this problem is not solved, everything in the future will be impossible.

"You have all entered a blind corner of your thinking." At this moment, Li Yunfan's voice came out through the communication equipment: "Our goal is to complete the process of slimming down the black hole without being constrained by the government or paying attention to it. Work. But you have to know that the way to avoid government constraints and attention is not just concealment... In addition to concealment, there is also deception."

"If your mother is watching TV in the living room, and the living room is the only way to get to the door, then obviously there is no way for you to hide your mother and then run out to date your girlfriend. But hiding is not the only way There is a way. You can tell your mother that you are going out to a friend's house to do homework, and then run out to see your little girlfriend." Li Yunfan said calmly, "The topic returns to the problem we are facing now... Don’t forget Zhao Lan’s special identity. Zhao Lan is the commander-in-chief of the space blockade plan. Zhao Lan was the first to discover Lobachevsky space and the first to propose a feasible plan to save the earth. Then Zhao Lan naturally has a high degree of trust. And this can bring us a lot of convenience."

"Zhao Lan, you can go and tell the executive committee that you want to borrow a secret experimental base of the military, report to the military and the Ministry of Security that a secret base of the Ministry of Science and Technology will conduct a large number of nuclear energy tests recently, and apply to the head of state to increase the number of nuclear energy tests. The security level of the secret base, for the Nuclear Energy Administration... for the Supervision Department... you can tell different accounts to different departments, but only you know the truth of the matter."
