Chapter 194 Crane Particles
Northern Union Area.
One of the few pure lands in the entire Pan-Asian region. The reason why it is said to be a pure land is only in comparison to those devastated ruins.
The survivors who were abandoned on this wasteland migrated northward, and established a survivor settlement together with the local survivors in the mountainous area south of Jincheng adjacent to the Yellow River. Before the war, the population base here was not high, so the density of zombies was naturally relatively low. It has not been directly hit by nuclear weapons, the radiation level is far lower than that in developed areas, and the density of alien species is also extremely low. Except for the alien species migrating from the north of Jincheng, there is almost no fatal danger here.
Naturally, stability brings order and prosperity.
Although the environment is harsh and the soil is barren, they still opened up tens of thousands of acres of "good land" on the wasteland. Even if the output is not high, it still feeds tens of thousands of survivors who fled here.
Autocratic, powerful, stable.
These three words are enough to sum up everything about this "empire".
Although advertised as "union rule", the Gendarmerie, which controls the "law and order" of this survivor's settlement, holds the power of life and death for all survivors. In the form of a military government, they control food production and rule the entire Union area.
It is said that they plotted against Wanghai City, and they have been doing so since a long time ago.
Of course, this Sun Xiaorou is not a member of the gendarmerie, but belongs to a religious organization that is active in the north - the Twilight Church.
They proclaim the coming of the end and believe in the fear of the end. But unlike the vast majority of desperate people, they also firmly believe that Boyu, the spiritual leader they believe in, can lead them to rush out of the solar system and find the second sun—the new home of mankind.
Coincidentally, the purpose of their coming to Wanghai City this time is for the "Eden Project" buried in the 005 shelter, to obtain the establishment of a small biosphere in space.
In order to be able to enter the Urban Construction Bureau in the city center and obtain the specific coordinates of the 005 shelter, they did not hesitate to collude with the mutants at No. 7. The munitions of the mutants, as well as the code for the security system of Kallman Corporation. All provided by them.
Unfortunately, however, they were doomed to return empty-handed. There was almost nothing left there except a pile of slag. When clearing out the mutated creatures that broke into 005's shelter, Jiang Chen conveniently blew up the artificial intelligence's server. And evacuated all useful things inside the facility.
As for the "iron box" that stored the "Eden Project", after Lin Ling copied all the data to the chip in her brain,
Jiang Chen also destroyed the original.
I don't know what that Boyu has been working so hard for, and finally arrived at the 005 shelter, facing a pile of debris. What a wonderful look on the face.
But no matter how you say it, even if Jiang Chen knows the current situation of the 005 shelter, he can't stand in front of him and tell him: I have penetrated the 005 shelter, and I have taken away all the things in it.
That being the case, the conflict between the two sides is naturally unavoidable. Jiang Chen couldn't let the mutants enter Qingpu, and Bo Yu, who led the Twilight Church, would not give up the city center either. He had already shown his hostility by sending his men to assassinate him.
Sun Xiaorou has no memories of how the ammunition was transported to Wanghai City, and how she herself joined the Twilight Church. After all, he joined the church at a very young age, and according to the consistent nature of religious organizations. Programs such as brainwashing will definitely not escape.
In addition, it is about sub-crystal.
Since Sun Xiaorou, who was in a half-absence state, had already started talking nonsense, Jiang Chen couldn't sum up the information she dictated from the fragmentary words.
However, a key word she repeatedly emphasized made him a little concerned.
Crane particles.
This seemed to be the third time he had heard the word.
…
"ah!"
As soon as Lin Ling's door was pushed open, a short mournful cry sounded.
Jiang Chen looked at the trembling Lin Ling in confusion.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"No, nothing!"
The high-pitched voice seemed to be out of tune.
Was it stimulated by something?
Since Lin Ling often lost her nerves intermittently, Jiang Chen didn't bother to care about her, and asked straight to the point.
"About last night. I have something to ask."
Lin Ling swallowed cutely, and the chick nodded like a pecking rice.
It's rare that she cooperates like this.
As usual, shouldn't it be the beginning of a sentence with something like "Humph. Why should I help you?"
Of course he didn't know that Lin Ling, a disobedient guy, sneaked back after he closed the door, and heard and saw something bad at the door.
"...Then I asked, last night, the one who shot red light from her eyes was Tingting?"
Said the name Tingting. Jiang Chen looked a little weird.
Although in that virtual world, she appeared as a human being and became a couple with him, her original body was probably a "bug".
"Yeah!" Lin Ling nodded vigorously.
"What the hell is that ray?"
Hearing this, Lin Ling's expression also became serious.
"That's what I just wanted to say...some unusual stuff found on the subcrystal."
After finishing speaking, Lin Ling ran to the experimental table, took off a sub-crystal polished to a flat mirror surface, and put it in the glass cover of a strangely shaped instrument.
"This is?"
"You don't understand, anyway, it's a very convenient instrument... I used to think that you were just collecting these shiny stones like magpies as currency, and at the same time acting as a substitute for fossil fuels product, but I studied it carefully yesterday, and it’s not that simple.”
In the glass cover, the emerald green sub-crystal began to change color.
"A little subcrystal burns completely and releases energy equivalent to 2.47KG standard coal. Then, it will become this state."
The sub-crystal has lost its luster and turned into a quartz-like state.
"And then?" Jiang Chen looked at the faded crystal with interest.
Lin Ling didn't answer Jiang Chen's question, but instead asked with a mysterious expression, "Have you heard of the fourth dimension?"
"Fourth dimension? The space-time that includes the time axis?" This Jiang Chen has heard of it, anyway, he is also a university student.
"Then let me ask another question, have you heard of the energy that exists in the fourth dimension?"
Jiang Chen was stunned. On the one hand, it was because this statement was too abstract, and on the other hand, it was because she was confused why she suddenly asked this question.
"Everything in this world, including you and me, can be simply summarized by the three parameters of length, width and height. This is the three-dimensional dimension. But if you add a time axis to it, such as the Jiang Chen that exists today, Jiang Chen and tomorrow's Jiang Chen are completely different existences in the sense of the fourth dimension. Just like Lin Ling who is 1.5 meters tall and Lin Ling who is 2 meters tall are two different existences in the third dimension."
"If you add a time axis to the energy. Imagine. This sub-crystal 'today's energy' is used up, but after tens of thousands of years, its energy is refilled..."
"Wait, what about the conservation of mass?" Jiang Chen couldn't help but interrupted.
"Of course it is conserved. Because from the beginning, Klein particles existed in the four-dimensional space. It's just that we are limited to a 'certain point' and cannot see it. However, at a specific point in time, Crane particles will partially fall to the three-dimensional space, and the intuitive performance in our eyes is 'full of energy'."
Because it was too sci-fi, even though Lin Ling spoke in detail and slowly, Jiang Chen still only vaguely understood.
"You can try this sub-crystal and use your ability to extract its energy. By the way, the previous energy value of this sub-crystal was 5." Lin Ling put the colorless sub-crystal on the Jiang Chen's hand.
Already empty.
No matter how you think about it, it can't be used to charge the jump bracelet, right?
Although thinking so, Jiang Chen still followed Lin Ling's instructions and held Yajing in his hand.
immediately. A shocked expression appeared on his face.
It was obviously an empty sub-crystal, but he actually extracted energy from it.
Moreover, the energy replenished by the bracelet is almost no less than that provided by 5 subcrystals!
"Is it energy residue?" Jiang Chen asked with difficulty.
Lin Ling shook her head.
"The energy that exists in the third dimension has been completely consumed. No matter which production equipment you take this sub-crystal, it cannot be used as an energy source. But is it really as I expected? Your transition The bracelet can directly extract the Crane particles located in the fourth dimension. In other words, you have consumed the energy that may appear in the future."
Jiang Chen stared at the lines on his right wrist with wide eyes.
"No, it can also be recharged to replenish energy. It takes about 100 degrees of electricity to fully charge, and only 10 points if you use sub-crystals. But according to what you said, 1 point of sub-crystals. The energy that has fallen to the third dimension alone is enough. It is equivalent to 2.47KG of standard coal. The energy of Crane particles at 10 points of subcrystal is dozens of times higher than that of 100 kilowatt-hours, right?"
Lin Ling sighed
"Think about it carefully, when you use electricity to charge the jump bracelet, is there any current flowing down your hand, flowing through your body to the ground?"
Jiang Chen frowned and recalled the previous charging scene, then shook his head.
"No."
"Of course not. If there was, you must have been electrocuted into coke." Lin Ling said maliciously.
"The electrical energy absorbed by your bracelet is not the energy generated when electrons flow through the negative electrode to the positive electrode in the usual sense, but directly consumes the electron itself. It is troublesome to explain, and you can directly understand it as a form of annihilation. Speaking of which, don't you think that you can travel through time and space with only 100 kilowatt-hours of electricity?" At the end, Lin Ling couldn't help but complain.
"That is to say, the subcrystal... this kind of biological crystal is the container of the Klein particle?"
"That's right. I haven't studied exactly how it contains the mysterious Crane particles. In short, the subcrystal is really not a simple thing. Including the female assassin who detonated the subcrystal, including Tingting's shot The red ray is a phenomenon produced by Crane particles decaying and releasing energy into three-dimensional space." Lin Ling said solemnly.

For example, Yuwang, can there be Time doesn't refer to that aspect at all, okay! Who on earth smugly equated Yuwang with Shibudama? You can't be drunk.) (To be continued.)
