"hiss……"

Suddenly there was a sound of gasping air in the room, and my teeth instantly itched, as if I had walked into a dentist's office wearing a white robe and a mask, and heard the sound of a grinding drill bit spinning.

Kay was calmer than me. He just stepped on his right foot with his left foot when he stood up, which did not provoke Newton to take off on the spot. He grinned in pain, but he was hesitant to say "hurt" or "swear" in the next sentence.

But Gray's expression is the most puzzling.

Because his small eyes were filled with huge doubts, and it was obvious that he could see the bottom with just one glance. His scientific literacy, which had been maintained at the level of prenatal education for many years, could not allow him to guess the word puzzle...

"Hiss...what are you surprised about?"

Gray pretended for a moment and finally expressed his doubts.

I glanced at him and expressed envy for his stable mentality. Sure enough, next to the isolated island of human cognition, the seabed is full of dangerous rocks and cunning sea beasts. We have to rely on the vast ocean of ignorance to pretend to be calm.

appearance.

If there are still some obstacles to understanding the circular particle accelerator, then the concept of weaponizing this technology must be able to demonstrate its power more intuitively...

Particle beam weapons!

The so-called particle beam weapon is a powerful weapon that uses a particle accelerator like this aircraft to make particles move at high speed and hit the target. It emits a highly concentrated strong atomic particle beam or subatomic particle beam at 0.6C~

A weapon that hits the target at a speed of 0.8C the speed of light.

When particles are accelerated to the speed of light, the particle beam is emitted into space. The ultra-high temperature is far better than that of a laser, and its penetrability can melt or destroy any target it encounters from the inside. Moreover, after hitting the target, it will also

The secondary magnetic field will completely destroy the target.

"Are you seriously ill?"

I struggled for a long time and couldn't help asking Mr. Rhodes this question.

Riding a huge circular particle accelerator, flying to a suspected nuclear weapons warehouse, and then telling us that we were going to blow it up, this is simply more outrageous than Archduke Ferdinand, who airdropped an entire regiment into the Balkans in 1914.

As a result of what he did, if he hadn't been sent to a military court for crimes against humanity, then he would have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize - and it had to be a 1939 limited edition.

"Marcus, you are calmer than I thought."

Mr. Rhodes pondered for a moment, and then he actually answered me, "I thought you would object to this plan passionately, or make furious remarks about parting ways on the spot."

I first freed Kai, who was still struggling with his left and right feet, and then pushed Gray, who had a (◎_◎) expression, back to a sitting position, and then sighed.

"It's hard to persuade a damned person with good words... Since you have used such a sinister plan, there must be some big problem, right?"

Mr. Rhodes nodded, and his eyes first fell on the copper ring on my hand.

"During the strange house incident in Norton Mine, I met Juan Romero. This long-lost ring from the Holy See was also obtained from him. I feel that its original owner is somewhat similar to you.

.”

I always accept compliments like this, "What do you say? Do you think he is as wise and powerful as me, and he does things without being alarmed?"

Mr. Rhodes shook his head.

"No, Juan Romero is a complete lunatic. He deliberately caused an explosion in the mine, caused a strange storm, and finally jumped into a cave of boiling lava in front of me."

I:"……"

Seeing my bad expression, Mr. Rhodes immediately explained, "Don't get me wrong - I mean you can still remain calm in the face of this kind of thing, but your mental state may need to be evaluated."

... Sir, I am very sure that I did not misunderstand what you meant, and I clearly felt the slander.

At this time, the steel wall of the central control room suddenly fell, revealing another layer of glass curtain wall outside the wall. Many staff wearing lab coats and military uniforms were debugging the equipment, and countless data streams quickly slid across the electronic screens.

, bringing out the extremely tense atmosphere in the audience.

"Gentlemen, particle beam weapons can destroy targets dozens of kilometers away in space, but their power is attenuated in the atmosphere and can only attack targets several kilometers away. As the chief engineer of this weapon, Mr. Sparrow is estimated to have already prepared the launch

Get ready, the first round of weapons testing will begin soon."

Following the announcement indoors, the aircraft quickly climbed high and arrived at the edge of a dark cloud layer. It began a slow but steady rotation. The buzzing sound of the electric current increased from weak to strong. Everyone was surprised to see the hair on other people's heads flying.

, and then, I found that the friction of my clothes would bring out a blue-purple electric spark.

"Mr. Rhodes, to be fair, I'm not very optimistic about your actions."

I cautiously expressed my doubts.

Mr. Rhodes' whole body seemed to be made of rock, and the scattered electric light from his body could not shake him in the slightest, because what was more obvious than the electric sparks was the sparks in his eyes.

"When the Wilmarth Foundation provided the technical blueprints, there was no confidence whatsoever. We once encountered a terrifying entity in the Norton Mines, and the two sides fought fiercely, although the Foundation understood its weaknesses and used a huge

An improved drill and a harpoon with an explosive tip, but its existence still caused huge casualties to the Foundation until this weapon was put into use..."

He glanced at the staff members who were of different compositions, and I'm afraid this had something to do with the "unpleasant cooperation" he mentioned before.

"It also caused the death of some... important companions. So this time the Wilmarth Foundation has the highest decision-making power, and we will directly use the most decisive weapon."

After a heart-stopping tremor in the soles of the feet, some horrific preparations seemed to have been completed. The center of the ring-shaped aircraft hidden by the clouds lit up with an astonishing light, as if a whole supernova was gestating in it.

Before we had time to marvel at this scene, the lights of the entire aircraft suddenly turned off, and the huge internal space fell into a moment of darkness. At this time, the afterimage of light in the retina had not faded, and darkness suddenly fell around us.

The power was depleted?!

The huge energy required by the particle accelerator may drain the energy core in an instant. The entire aircraft will slowly decline due to the impact of power. If it continues, it may become an unstoppable air crash.

Little Sparrow's voice roared, "What are you doing standing still? There's backup energy! Hurry up and connect it!"

Someone on the side immediately responded in a panic: "The accelerator caused an instant overload! There was a circuit fault and it couldn't start!"

Little Spyro was still angry, "Then use the third energy solution! The storm power system! Start it immediately!"

Under his command, the circular aircraft was artificially separated into a strange wing-shaped device, which seemed to be made up of countless moth wings. It was exposed like a thin film. It actually slowly stabilized the downward trend, and gradually began to have electrical equipment.

and the light fixtures started to flicker, partial power was restored!

"Humph, isn't it the sailing technology of the Nautical Brotherhood?"

Kay said disdainfully, but he could not simply deny and reject the accumulation of this kind of technical power to produce a qualitative change, and even felt a little envious.

With the help of this weird power system, the staff finally found time to repair the short-circuited wires. Especially with the support of a group of well-trained agents, the entire aircraft finally began to float in the sky again.

But before I could identify the figure of Agent E in the red dress in the crowd, I was shocked by the scene outside the window.

At the edge of Kuroshio Island, a shocking 100-meter giant crater appeared. The hateful water vapor floating out of this cave seemed to be staring at us through the air. Through its ever-changing faint light, I could

I could barely make out the rows of disgusting stone slabs, urns, pagodas and mausoleum buildings belonging to the suspects in the aftermath of the explosion.

The broken and grotesque altar and monolith seem to have a creepy personality - as if they are sentient.

"When did the island explode?"

My shock couldn't be greater. Logically speaking, an explosion of this scale would scatter smoke and dust at least several kilometers into the sky, forming a black mushroom cloud that shoots out of the sky. How could it end in a few minutes without even realizing it?

Already?!

Mr. Rhodes looked at this masterpiece with a gloomy face, but did not show any joy.

"As expected..."

I quickly asked: "What's true? Did you hit it or miss it? Why..."

I took another serious look at the state of Kuroshio Island and asked, "Why is this happening?!"

"General Morden studied this situation earlier and more thoroughly than we did. They were the first to unearth the Moro Stone Stele in the ancient civilization ruins on this island, and spread a terrible virus that would kill people.

The infection turned into a mindless walking zombie, and things started to get out of control from here..."

"Zombie virus?"

emmm...there's something wrong with the style of painting?

Why do nuclear explosions lead to zombie incidents? If you can relate it to the Pisces jade pendant, then I won’t be sleepy!

But Mr. Rhodes obviously doesn’t understand that the essence of conspiracy theories is that they are far-fetched and mysterious, and he gave us a straightforward explanation.

"But after we took over, we found that they were not walking corpses, but were forcibly dragged from the state of 'living' to the state of 'not dead', and fell into a desperate situation..."

"...Speak slowly. I have passed CET-6. Give me some time and I will understand!"

Kay seemed to know something and took the initiative to explain: "Marcus, I guess Mr. Rhodes means...these people are neither 'alive' nor 'dead', so they have become this weird state of existence.

?”

Mr. Rhodes finally nodded, "Yes, we found that the concept of 'death' was stolen from them..."

"No matter how they are dissected, it seems that as long as there is no functional damage, they can remain in a 'not dead' state and exist forever. The University of Michigan Medical School has stored their living cells in a vacuum environment, and they have not decayed or died until now. We

It is even suspected that as long as this cell is not cut into molecular structures, it will survive until the end of the world! The causal relationship between their existence has been completely transformed into a state of chaos!"

The concept of "death" was stolen!?

Cause and effect turned into chaos?!

This thing sounds a bit outrageous at first, but if you think about it carefully, it becomes more familiar...

There is a saying that goes well, if something looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and tastes like a duck, it must be a duck... Oh no, it could also be Brother Shuang.

But no matter what, looking at it now, what else could this be if it wasn’t a meme?!

I’ve even experienced memes like the “Death Star” that stare at someone’s death. Isn’t what Mr. Rhodes talking about a meme with a very special way of existence that has the ability to steal cause and effect?

But if this meme spreads, wouldn’t the whole world be in chaos?!
