Simulation: Great Power Technology

Weekends are easy for Ye Zhou. He spends most of his time in the simulator in the past two days. The talents in the mall have been updated, but he does not have the talents he needs. With 62 energy points out, I couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Is this the same feeling as having money and nowhere to spend?

It doesn’t seem to be the same. If you can’t spend it, it doesn’t mean that talents in the mall are useless. On the contrary, because talents will inherit attributes from reality, most talents appear to be very cost-effective. For example, the previous master of structural science, As well as the "absolute focus" with 30 energy points, the "quick response" with 60 energy points, and the "mathematician" with 300 energy points in the mall, all of them must be replaced after they have surplus energy points.

But now, the simulations Ye Zhou has experienced are still limited, and there are few sources of energy values, so he has to save the energy values ​​first to deal with problems that may not be solved in subsequent simulations.

This is like starting a business. When you have surplus funds in the early stage of your business, the first thing should not be personal enjoyment, but to prepare for the company's expansion. After the company has entered a stage of stable expansion, consider the use of the surplus funds. .

Ye Zhou put away his thoughts and re-entered the simulation.

[Dragon Heart Phase II plot simulation begins]

He opened his eyes, he was still above the Moho interface, and less than a kilometer down, he was about to enter the sphere of influence of the Pantiri cave effect.

Immediately, Ye Zhou turned on the intercom and shouted to the upper command:

"This is Tu Xingsun, here is Tu Xingsun, in an emergency, I need to stop sinking immediately! Repeat, I need to stop sinking immediately!"

A few seconds later, the reply from the command above came over.

"The Temple of the Earth has received it and agrees. Please report the situation."

"My mental state is currently unstable. I have mild hallucinations. I will restrain myself. Please take over the probe's remote control system!"

"Received. Do you need to return immediately? Please judge the danger level of the current situation. If it reaches the second-level risk, we will terminate the mission according to the plan."

Terminate the mission?

This was the first time Ye Zhou heard this option in the simulator, and his mind instantly became alive.

According to past experience, it is basically unconditional to complete a simulation in a simulation, unless it is faced with an extremely urgent situation like the first simulation.

But obviously, the Jiuyou plan this time is not urgent.

He can completely return to the ground first, report the situation to the expert group above, and then sink again!

Thinking of this, he opened his mouth and replied:

"I judged that I had lost my autonomy during the hallucination, and I had tried to perform a dangerous operation. The risk level has reached the second level and I need to return!"

"The Temple of the Earth has received it. Return immediately."

The command's voice fell, and all the operable interfaces in the detector were extinguished. Then, the thrust reverser started, and the detector disengaged from the safety hook lock and began to ascend rapidly.

Ye Zhou felt a huge overload, and the watch data of the load suit showed that the overload had reached 3 g at this time.

At a depth of 10 kilometers, for a thrust reverser running at full speed, it is only a distance of two minutes.

He gritted his teeth, constantly planning in his mind what to do when he got back to the ground.

First of all, of course, it is necessary to clarify the effect of the Pantiri cave in the ground, let the headquarters find experts, and start the formulation of the plan.

Secondly, I have to talk to the command about the details of the plan to see if it is possible to use artificial intelligence to replace myself into the underground - after all, this is the safest plan.

In 1 minute and 40 seconds, Ye Zhou saw the round hole through the detector's monitor screen.

It was like sitting in a well and looking at the sky. The entrance of the cave was only the size of a palm, but Ye Zhou knew that above the surface, it was actually a huge pit with a diameter of more than two kilometers, gradually shrinking.

At 1 minute and 50 seconds, the opening of the hole has expanded larger than the probe, and the thrust reverser has entered the terminal acceleration stage. The probe will squeeze out the last power to launch Ye Zhou into the sky at an altitude of 5 kilometers, and open it there. parachute.

This is because the probe's shackle has disengaged, and there is no other way to slow it down in the hole.

In 2 minutes and 15 seconds, the probe rushed out of the ground, and then continued to fly into the air at an astonishing speed.

After 3 minutes, the main parachute failed to open.

At 3 minutes and 15 seconds, the backup umbrella failed to open, and Ye Zhou was still 4,000 meters away from the ground.

At an altitude of 4,000 meters, considering the limit speed caused by air resistance, he had less than 80 seconds to fall to the ground.

Less than a minute and a half.

certain death.

Ye Zhou sighed, the communicator at this time was already full of anxious shouts.

"Tu Xingsun, emergency! Please keep your full attention!"

"Listen to my instructions! Super calculation team! Calculate the speed of the end of the fall immediately!"

"How much? Received!"

"Ye Zhou! The probe's thrust reverser still has the last 2% of fuel. Please restart the engine manually at the last moment of the fall to reduce the fall speed!"

"Your end speed will reach...forget it! Now start testing your reaction time! Hit the talker button as soon as you hear the siren!"

Ye Zhou listened to his instructions, and after a few seconds, the alarm sounded, and he immediately pressed the button.

At this point, there are 40 seconds left before falling to the ground.

"The reaction time is 176ms, and the supercomputing team will solve it immediately! I will send you the same alarm sound at a certain time, and in the next time, you must keep your full attention!"

"Put your hand on the console, and immediately start the reverse thrust engine manually after hearing the alarm!"

"Now count down 20 seconds, all radios are silent!"

The call was cut off abruptly.

In Ye Zhou's ears, there was only the sound of the mechanical countdown from the headquarters.

He took a deep breath.

10 seconds.

His fingers didn't tremble at all, which was the effect of his previously awakened "Courage" talent.

5 seconds.

Ye Zhou started to count down unconsciously.

1 second.

The probe has fallen to a distance of less than 50 meters from the ground.

The headquarters nervously commented on the probe in the sky. If it goes well, the speed of the probe's descent will be reduced to less than 30 meters per second by the thrust reverser.

At this speed, even if it falls straight down, it will not cause death.

The alarm sounded, and Ye Zhou pressed the button of the thrust reverser at the fastest speed.

The engine burst into flames.

The majestic reverse thrust came from below, Ye Zhou's load suit made a strange sound, and he even felt that his heart was compressed into a ball under the huge overload.

Are you going to succeed?

Ye Zhou couldn't help showing some incredible joy.

However, in the next second, the entire detector began to rotate rapidly.

The probe itself is prepared for the ground, and it does not have an attitude control system like other aircraft at all - the direction of the jet of the engine is shifted.

Turn around.

The last picture in Ye Zhou's eyes was that the probe slammed into the ground heavily, and then rolled over.

...

[The end of the second-stage plot simulation of Dragon Heart]

【Score for this simulation: e】

[Clue discovery: a journey with no return]

[Reward: 10 energy points (clue reward)]

[Go deep into the ground, but die in the sky, this is the fate of a hero]

Ye Zhou looked at the settlement interface, but he did not feel the loss of the simulation failure.

Instead, it's all emotion.

The headquarters called the Temple of the Earth, even at the last moment, never gave up on its rescue.

In a sudden emergency, they even developed a response strategy in less than two minutes, and even almost succeeded!

Turn the tide!

Ye Zhou wanted to know the name of the one who gave him the command, but the simulator didn't respond.

Probably not until the end of the simulation is completed, the answer will be revealed?

He rested for a moment in the void and began to think about the status quo.

First of all, it has been proved impossible to return to the ground. Because of the special design of the detector, this behemoth that goes deep into the ground cannot rise with a sling, but it is also an established fact that the parachute cannot be opened. The journey to the end was doomed to Ye Zhou----or to that researcher.

Therefore, all problems can only be solved underground.

Ye Zhou had to solve the problem of the Pantiri cave effect underground.

However, the life support system of the probe can only continue to operate for less than 8 hours, so it is impossible for him to wait for the remote technical support of the upper command.

Only on your own.

A possible solution was blocked again.
