Earth Era

Large-scale protests broke out in tens of thousands of large space cities. Countless people, holding flags and shouting various slogans, left their homes or other places to join the parade, making the procession even larger. Protesters gathered in front of almost every government agency. The higher the level of government, the larger the number of people gathered in front of it.

The protestors remained rational at first, but a few hours after the protest began, perhaps because there was no response from government officials, the protest methods began to escalate. Angry crowds began to attack government institutions, and some people with ulterior motives also began to take the opportunity to smash and rob property. The situation has become increasingly chaotic. Any rational government will step in to calm the public's emotions at this time, but Shen Qingyuan's approach once again exceeded everyone's expectations.

A cold, extremely harsh order was issued from the government center to the government agencies in every area of ​​each spacecraft. Although reluctant, officials had to follow orders. As a result, a large number of police and security personnel left their stations and came to the front line of confrontation with the people. A large number of people who participated in the demonstrations were arrested, and a large number of criminals who took the opportunity to smash and rob were also arrested.

Shen Qingyuan almost suppressed the chaos by force without any skill. In this confrontation, Shen Qingyuan's tough attitude was once again exposed. But everyone knows that this is actually of no use. People's anger can be suppressed temporarily, but it will eventually break out again one day, and each outbreak will be more violent than the last one until it cannot be suppressed.

At that time, perhaps the entire civilization fell into chaos.

Countless rational people have made pessimistic predictions about the future, and even suppressed the joy that the planetary accelerator was successfully laid and that human civilization was about to escape from the Phoenix Galaxy. Public opinion is silent and everyone is waiting, but no one knows what will happen in the future.

At this time, Li Chengxian contacted Han Luochang again.

At this moment, Han Luochang had left the capital spacecraft and came to the main control room of the No. 1 planetary accelerator. The promotion plan is about to begin and the accelerator is about to be launched. At this time, Han Luochang, as the commander-in-chief of the project, must be stationed here.

This should be a matter that concerns everyone in the civilization, will affect everyone's heart, and should receive everyone's attention and attention. But because of the new policies promulgated by Shen Qingyuan and the recent turmoil within civilization, everyone's attention was drawn away, and not many people paid attention to this matter for a while.

"Hello, Commissioner Han."

At this critical juncture, which was about to change the fate of the entire civilization and determine the lives and deaths of countless people, Li Chengxian still had that calm and calm look on his face, with a pearl of wisdom in his grasp. His tone was unusually calm, and no emotion could be heard.

Han Luochang also said calmly: "The two planetary accelerators will be officially launched in three days. The advancement plan will officially begin."

"They don't stand a chance, right?"

Han Luochang was silent for a moment and said, "Can you tell me your plan?"

"My plan is very simple. In five hours, the members of the Freedom Corps who have been lurking at various key nodes will start to take action and secretly sabotage the accelerator. What you need to do is also very simple - just turn off the self-defense system of the accelerator. That's it. After the destruction is completed, you can issue the orbit adjustment command from the main control room. Once the command is issued, the two planetary accelerators will be split apart. Of the total two million acceleration segments, at least 170 Wan Duan will be destroyed by collision with each other, explosion on its own, or interaction with the magnetic field of the messenger star. By that time, our plan will be complete."

As major projects related to the fate of human civilization, the two accelerators have the most complete self-protection systems. It is not easy to destroy it, and this is where Han Luochang's value lies.

Destroying it is only possible by shutting down its self-defense system. For such an important operation, only Han Luochang, the commander-in-chief of the project, has the authority to issue instructions.

Decades of lurking and secret arrangements, millions of Free Army engineers scattered at key nodes of the accelerator, and the final instruction given by Han Luochang to shut down the accelerator's self-defense system. As long as one of them is missing, the plan to destroy the accelerator will be over. Impossible to succeed. Now, these conditions are met.

Han Luochang closed his eyes, took a deep breath, then opened his eyes and nodded heavily.

"After five hours, I will shut down the accelerator self-defense system."

"Very good, wish us success, Deputy Leader Han."

Li Chengxian smiled meaningfully and cut off the communication. Han Luochang keenly noticed that Li Chengxian had changed his name from Commissioner Han to Deputy Leader Han.

The main control room is the brain and core of the two accelerators. All data from the two million acceleration segments will be gathered here. The signals sent from here control every action of the accelerator. The main control room is very large, and there are many staff members in it. In addition to more than 300 scientific consultants, there are more than 1,000 related engineering and staff members. At this moment, everyone here is busy, busy carrying out the last inspection of the accelerator, and busy making various parameter adjustments. But this busyness does not include Han Luochang.

Han Luochang walked slowly in the main control room. Every staff member who met him would respectfully hide beside him and pay him attention. But Han Luochang didn't respond to anyone. He just walked quietly and watched quietly.

He knew that in just a few hours, everything here would change. Only then will people realize that all their busyness is meaningless. The fate of civilization will be rewritten, countless people will die, and countless people will be reborn. Only then can one's hatred be vented.

"If you dare to destroy my daughter, I will destroy you."

Time slipped away quietly, and five hours passed quietly. A message without the sender appearing inexplicably on Han Luochang's computer. The message was simple, only three words.

The meal is ready.

Then Han Luochang understood that the final moment had arrived. He took a deep breath and came to the main control room.

There are more than a dozen procedures for identity verification such as palm prints, fingerprints, iris, and DNA. Han Luochang kept an expressionless face and followed the system prompts meticulously, and passed the test after five minutes.

The virtual interface turned red at this moment, and a conspicuous warning sign appeared: "Are you sure to turn off the automatic defense system? Note that this may lead to some unpredictable consequences."

Han Luochang's finger gently touched the confirmed option.

"Second confirmation, are you really sure to turn off the automatic defense system? Note, this is the last confirmation."

Han Luochang had no expression on his face and once again clicked on the confirmed option.

"Okay, the automatic defense system has been turned off."

Han Luochang shook his head slightly and replied to the number without identifying information: "You can eat it."

After completing all these operations, Han Luochang turned around and left here.

Several scientists and engineers ran over in a panic. When they saw Han Luochang, they said anxiously: "Commander Han, the system detected that the automatic defense system was shut down a minute ago. What's going on?"

"Don't panic, I closed it."

"What?" People looked at each other and asked, "Why?"

"The Sixth Inspection Team needs to do some inspections on the accelerator self-defense system, and the application has been reviewed by the Engineering Command."

People breathed a sigh of relief: "That's it. It's really strange that the people from the Sixth Inspection Team didn't notify us in advance."

"Perhaps they have forgotten, and I will criticize them." Han Luochang waved his hand, "Let's all go to work. The thruster will be started in three days. Everyone must do a final test to ensure nothing goes wrong. You must always remember , the fate of human civilization now depends on us."

People's expressions immediately became serious: "Yes!"

The crowd dispersed, and Han Luochang returned to his office again.

In the past few decades, Han Luochang has not been without struggles and contradictions. I don’t know how many nights Han Luochang woke up from his dream, and then couldn’t sleep all night long. I don’t know how many times he looked at the countless spaceships shuttled through the accelerator construction base, as well as countless workers, engineers, and scientists. Han Luo often felt like he was being severely tortured in his heart.

Han Luochang also hesitated. But every time he hesitated, the image of his daughter losing all her dignity as a human being, covered in scars, with tears streaming down her face, crawling on the ground like a dog would appear in her mind, and all the hesitations and struggles would come to mind. All disappeared.

The initiators of all this were Shen Qingyuan and Zhao Yang, the psychiatrists from the Capital First Mental Hospital, Mo Xiangsheng and the scientists from the Scientific Planning Department who created the planetary accelerator. Only by overthrowing Shen Qingyuan's rule can he rescue his daughter and take revenge on these people.

Han Luochang once thought that when the final moment came and he really needed to personally destroy this great project that maintained the hope of the entire human race, he would hesitate, get entangled, and find it difficult to do it, but even he himself Unexpectedly, at the last moment, I didn't hesitate at all.

"Shen Qingyuan has gone crazy. Keeping him may not be a good thing for our civilization. Destroying the accelerator and staying in the Phoenix Galaxy to live a hopeless, but happy and materially sufficient life is not a good thing for us. It’s not necessarily a bad thing for our civilization.”
