This Game Is Too Realistic

The "Champion" brand biomass anti-radiation agent project was launched quickly, with only one week from approval to project establishment.

Long before the project was officially approved, Yule had already followed the senior named Zhao Feiyu to the research institute in Jinhe City to report.

As Chu Guang expected, the research institute they came to was the "Champion" Biopharmaceutical Research Institute located in Jinhe City.

That's the coordinates the college gave him. At this time, Yule was still a somewhat dull young man, not very good at socializing, and he was completely focused on research.

Although the average working time per person in the People's Federation era is only one hour, this does not mean that this is the case for all positions. There are big differences in different industries.

Such as scientific research positions.

It is common to spend 24 hours a day in the laboratory.

However, Yule does not feel bored, nor does he have any anxiety of "everyone else is on vacation but I am working." After all, in this era, work is no longer a necessity for survival, but the realization of self-worth.

Repetitive and boring work has long been handed over to machines. Even if you don't work all your life, you can still live with a prosperous standard of living... This is something that people in the classical era could hardly imagine, or they only dared to think about it in film and television works.

Things that don't happen often are called miracles. It is precisely for this reason that this infinitely beautiful era was named the Era of Prosperity to distinguish it from the old era in the past.

For Yule, being able to enter a world-renowned company and engage in groundbreaking research right after graduation is an interesting and meaningful thing in itself.

Therefore, he almost lived in the laboratory and spent all the time of the day on his research except sleeping.

With such enthusiasm for research, he is just one member of a large research team.

And just the most plain and inconspicuous one.

Of course, although Yuer himself enjoyed it, Chu Guang, who was standing aside as a bystander, yawned.

Since this guy had never left the research institute once since he came to Jinhe City, Chu Guang couldn't go around outside the research institute while he was working on the laboratory. He could only watch from the sidelines. .

The images he could see were all made up of Yule's memory fragments.

If it is something that has been seen and forgotten, it may be possible to restore it, but if it is something that has not been seen at all, then it can only be made up out of thin air.

In the end, Chu Guang was really bored, so he simply snatched the remote control from Xiao Qi and jumped the fast forward speed to a hundred times, a thousand times, or even ten thousand times...

Then in a blink of an eye, four years passed and the year reached 2125.

Chu Guang suddenly remembered that this year seemed to be the three years of war, so he immediately canceled the fast forward.

What a coincidence was that at the same time when he adjusted the flow of time back to double the speed, the institute also experienced new changes.

Several soldiers wearing military exoskeletons stood at the door of the laboratory, and a serious-looking soldier was talking to the person in charge here.

The streets in the distance were visibly desolate. Most of the advertisements on the holographic screen were gone, and the only ones left were advertisements that broadcast war news and war mobilization in a loop.

Chu Guang couldn't hear their conversation, so he simply returned to Yuer's side. At this moment, he was talking with the senior named Zhao Feiyu.

After four years of growth, this young man has grown from the stupid young man to a reliable researcher.

For a moment, Chu Guang saw Yin Fang's shadow on him.

The two are actually very similar.

They are all relatively pure researchers. At least he is still like this now.

"Our laboratory has been incorporated and is now under the jurisdiction of the Central War Research Institute."

"...Incorporation?" Yuer glanced at Zhao Feiyu and asked in confusion, "We are not studying weapons here."

"That's right, so our job is not to research weapons... but to assist the Army in assessing biological disasters.

Risks and assisting relief departments in developing some low-cost drugs. "

Looking at Worry Yuer, Zhao Feiyu patted him on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, this is actually... a good thing. At this juncture, our needs are met first, and the college helped us get a large budget."

In the prosperous era, the academy was a loose academic organization, mainly composed of well-known figures in the academic world. Its nature was somewhat similar to a merchants' chamber of commerce and a workers' union.

Although it felt good to have someone taking care of him, there was no happy look on Zhao Feiyu's face when he said this.

War suddenly broke out.

There are no signs.

It is said that the cause was that the space station at the Lagrange point observed hostile behavior from the direction of Proxima Centauri. However, no one knew what the hostile behavior was and what the motives of the colonists were for launching the war.

Perhaps these things will only be made public after the war is over. In short, the scale of this sudden war exceeds everyone's imagination.

Especially for the vast majority of people in this era, war is a completely unfamiliar concept. It is rarely seen in film and television works, let alone in the news.

Of course, even so, the People's Federation still has great advantages.

Relying on their huge industrial power, talent reserves and mobilization capabilities, they built a huge army from scratch in just one month.

However, the situation is still not optimistic.

The traitors four light-years away used their trump card as soon as they came up and sent indescribable fungi to their home planet.

That is a creature that no one has ever seen. There are no similar examples in the Earth's ecosystem.

Obviously, it was a unique species on Nanmen 2. After discovering it, the colonial authorities did not report it to the People's Federation authorities, but kept it as a trump card.

This may be the obsession of a small group of people, or it may be a collective decision, but it is meaningless to think about these at this juncture.

The spores and fruiting bodies of slime mold spread everywhere in the intricate rail transit, and Qingquan City, 800 kilometers away, instantly became uninhabitable.

And the same thing didn't just happen in Qingquan City, almost all large cities suffered. On the contrary, lesser-known small cities like Jinhe City survived.

When all means are used to prevent it from continuing to expand, the authorities can only choose the last resort——

Use omnipotent neutron rays to purify it before it spreads to other urban agglomerations.

This would have minimal impact, both from an economic and other perspective, and even those buildings could be preserved by using a pure fusion hydrogen bomb with no radiation residue.

…In short, our job is to determine the impact of neutron rays on slime mold nests and assess the damage. They plan to design a weapon that can release neutron plumes in a directional and stable manner, so that there is no need for an explosion. The college contacted a physics institute to cooperate with us in this evaluation. "

"Does this kind of thing also require experiments?" Yule gave him a strange look.

Although he was not an expert in nuclear weapons, he knew that no living thing could survive neutron rays.

That thing will poke holes in nucleic acids, proteins, and enzymes, and all life activities based on these macromolecules will be suspended.

It is absolutely impossible for an organism to survive neutron rays——

No, not necessarily.

Such creatures actually exist.

Yule suddenly thought that the blue mushrooms in the laboratory's petri dishes had that kind of magical power.

Since the inner monologue is also part of the memory, Chu Guang standing next to him can not only see what he said, but also the thoughts he did not say.

"Some people are worried that a nuclear strike may mutate the mutant slime mold and make the situation worse." Zhao Feiyu looked at the soldiers with a complicated expression. "To be honest, that's what I judged...

Surely they knew we would use this method, would they be unprepared? "

Watching the conversation between the two, Chu Guang had a trace of doubt in his eyes.

If he remembered correctly, nuclear bombs should have been used in the early stages of the war, and the note with bloody handprints recorded the situation at that time.

Why is it different in Yule's memory? With such doubts, Chu Guang pressed fast forward and continued reading.

Just a month later, Yule, who was sitting in the cafeteria eating, saw a mushroom cloud blooming over Qingquan City on the news.

Although the news host said that residents in the city have been completely evacuated or entered shelters, the pale language is not convincing no matter how you listen to it.

It was a big city with a population of hundreds of millions. How can we evacuate all the people there?

And where would it need to be evacuated to accommodate so many people?

And where would it need to be evacuated to accommodate so many people?

At least in Jinhe City, he didn't see anyone from Qingquan City.

Yule sat dumbly on the chair, his hand shook, and the spoon fell onto the plate with a clang.

Awakened by the sound, he didn't pick it up. Instead, he pushed the chair away and stood up. He quickly walked to the senior's office, pushed open the door and walked in without even knocking.

"What's going on? A nuclear bomb? Aren't I still doing technical demonstrations? And why a nuclear bomb..."

Looking at the news on the holographic screen, Zhao Feiyu's expression was filled with solemnity.

"I have no idea……"

A trace of annoyance appeared on Yule's face.

"So what's the point of our experiment? They just wasted a month for no reason, and they didn't even plan to refer to our evaluation suggestions! In that case, why didn't you tell me from the beginning!"

"Sorry, I really don't know." Zhao Feiyu sighed, "Maybe...someone just needs us to do this to appease the vast majority of people who are confused."

"For example, nuclear bombs are used to eliminate evil biological weapons and are detonated by ourselves under the advice of professionals... Doesn't this statement sound more acceptable than the defense line of the Aerospace Forces being breached by the invasion force of the colonial star?" Some?"

Yule said blankly.

"The air force's defense line has been breached?" "I'm just talking nonsense, it's better if you don't take it seriously."

Seeing Yu Er's dull expression, Zhao Feiyu smiled relaxedly, but there was no relaxed expression on his face.

After a pause, he continued.

"Going back to the previous question, I think another way of saying it may be more conducive to unity. At least now is not the time to quarrel. We are experiencing a catastrophe that has not happened in hundreds of years. Even if we want to hold anyone accountable, we have to wait. After everything is over. At least for now, unity is more important than the truth."

"I hope I'm wrong, because that means a lot of people are already dead as we speak here."

As he spoke, he reached out and turned off the news. After a pause, he continued.

"But if the worst-case scenario, and my guess is correct... maybe we're being attacked by more than just biological weapons."

"You should know, right? In the Nanmen 2 system, in addition to yellow dwarfs such as Nanmen A and Nanmen ***, there are also red dwarfs such as Proxima Centauri. The amount of radiation released by its flare activity is that of the sun. Hundreds of times that, which is a fatal dose for living things on earth."

Yule nodded.

Alien creatures are not his specialty, but he has heard a little bit about the alien species in the colony. In short, it is a quite complex ecosystem.

If a war hadn't suddenly broken out, he would have planned to apply for academic exchange there after the conditions there improved.

Watching him nod, Zhao Feiyu continued.

Therefore, in the early inferences, the astronomical community speculated based on experience that it was impossible to have habitable planets in the Nanmen 2 system. It was not until later that our detectors did fly there and saw the world shrouded in aurora, and then we started To study an ecological environment we have never seen before.

You should have noticed that neutron rays are fatal to us, but not fatal to the alien species in the colony. They themselves evolved into what they are now in an ecological environment with frequent stellar flares. .

Pure biological weapons are not enough to produce immediate results. The traitors in the colony may intend to make the home planet no longer habitable, so it is difficult to achieve the goal simply by using biological weapons.

It is reasonable to suspect that the nuclear bomb had already detonated before we received the task. It is hard to say which one was the bonus, between it and the slime mold.

Yul swallowed.

Dirty bomb…

"With a high probability, yes," Zhao Feiyu nodded and said with a sigh, "For the alien species in the Nanmen II system, it may not be too dirty. They grew up in a radiation environment, but for the species on the earth, It's bad enough.

Why are they doing this? !

Yule did not ask this question out loud, but kept it in his heart.

He knew that he was not the only one who was confused, his predecessors were also confused at the moment, and they were confused by the rebellion of his brothers and sisters.

Why does it have to come to this point? Can't we just sit down and talk?

"In short, the project has changed. We have to continue the original topic, and in addition to anti-radiation agents, we also need to increase research on radiation elimination agents. The supply of medical nanorobots is not available, and the same is true for bionic organs. We can only hope Traditional medicine can solve our problems."

Yule raised his head.

"Is this an order from the Wartime Research Institute?" Zhao Feiyu shook his head.

"No, it's the suggestion of the academy and the opinion of the director of the institute... I think they are right. Instead of cooperating with the authorities to waste time on stabilizing people's emotions, it is better to do something truly meaningful. Prevention is not enough. We We still have to eliminate the radioactive damage that has been caused.”

In fact, just two days after the news was broadcast, they received an order from the Central War Research Institute to end their research on the "effect of neutron rays on the mother nest of slime mold."

Just as Yule's predecessors guessed, their research results themselves are not important, what is important is that someone has to do it.

Thanks to their busy work and cooperation with the media to stabilize the confidence of residents outside the war zone, the People's Federation was not defeated by their opponents in the first place.

Although the colony's raid caused huge losses to the home planet, the war had just begun, and the People's Federation still had a great chance of winning.

But Yule still felt a little discouraged. He worked in vain for a month.

If we had known that the results of the research would not be important from the beginning, why would we put so much effort into it? And no one knows whether it makes sense to do so.

As time passed, more and more materials were sent to the institute due to major breakthroughs in the research on radiation anti-radiation agents and radiation elimination agents.

The most recent time, the People's Alliance Army sent a batch of helium-III nuclear fuel, which was thousands of cubic meters, and everyone felt a little uneasy.

This is not a resource that a research institute can consume. This may mean that this war will become a protracted war.

Looking at the cans of nuclear fuel, Chu Guang, who was standing aside and peering at the screen, was greedy. However, this was just a memory. Even if he wanted to, he would have to wait until the mutants there were eliminated.

Anyway, he made a note of where the nuclear fuel was kept.

Players will then replace him

Recover these treasures.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

As the war continued to expand, the living environment on the surface continued to deteriorate, and the research position had to be moved from the ground to the underground.

Although Chu Guang did not see a real battle in the memory of Yu Er, it was not difficult to feel the suffocating atmosphere on the street outside the institute and the depression visible to the naked eye. The battle was brutal.

Unfortunately, after moving to the underground research facility, Yule never went out again, and the information from the outside was suddenly cut off.

At first there was news to read, but later there was no news at all. Only people who regularly delivered supplies occasionally brought some outside news.

In fact, it's not that someone locked him in here and didn't let him out. People were coming in and out of the elevator all the time, and the researchers here could come and go freely at any time.

Just seeing those heavy faces, and then thinking about the howling cold wind and radioactive dust outside, the whole scene is like the end of the world...

No one wants to go out.

Most people still want to retain some good impressions of that era.

And instead of facing the destroyed world, it is better to expend energy on the work at hand. At least the working environment under their feet is still relatively good, the supply of materials is also given priority, and they can even drink a cup of bionic man while busy. Beautiful woman brews coffee.

However, the work must be done one day.

Thanks to the efforts of countless people, the final products of radiation abatement and anti-radiation agents were finally developed, and the formula and production process were simplified - even evacuation settlements with poor conditions can be produced with limited equipment and resources.

What is intriguing is that this project was originally established by the Champion Group to make a fortune. However, no one thought that before they made a big fortune, the credit points themselves had lost their meaning.

In a situation where most people cannot guarantee that they will be alive tomorrow, credit becomes a nonsensical thing.

The formulas of radiation neutralizing agents and anti-radiation agents were made public to various settlements for free use, and the researchers in the institute finally breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, the person delivering supplies brought good news. The war that had lasted for nearly three years was finally coming to an end.

It is said that due to the fierce fighting of the frontline troops, the colonial defenders were retreating steadily, and the final resistance was exhausted.

This news is undoubtedly the best news in three years, and the atmosphere in the laboratory is as lively as a festival.

Although Chu Guang wants to tell them at this moment, it is too early for you to be happy. After the three years of war, there will be a wasteland era that lasts for two centuries and there are still no signs of ending.

Civilization will decline into an era of chaos at an unprecedented speed. Compared with those two centuries of darkness, the suffering of these short three years is nothing at all.

At least there was a beautiful android lady helping them bring tea and water, and at least the supplies never stopped.

But even if I could communicate with these people who were in the mood, I'm afraid they wouldn't believe what I said.

A celebration party was held in the laboratory, and Yule, who was not so gregarious, couldn't help but go outside the laboratory.

This big brother, who is no longer young, finally mustered up the courage to set foot on the surface again.

And when he saw this unrecognizable world, he was completely stunned. He opened his mouth but couldn't say a word.

At this time, a sigh came from behind him.

"As you can see, our world is over."
