48 Hours a Day

Chapter 1131: Chernobyl

The words of the rat make the doctor look sharp.

In fact, not only mice, but now almost all players can taste metal in their mouths, in addition to smelling a rich ozone, many people have tight temples, stinging eyelids, and burning sensations in their chests.

However, this copy is basically an old player, they are not in danger for the first time, no one will be surprised by such a small thing, besides, there has just been an explosion here, many places are still burning, of course people will not expect the air quality to be good, but some people do think of chemical materials and other things.

Until the doctor spit out a word, "Nuclear radiation!!! ”

“Hmm?” Grandpa Quinn frowned.

“We've just been exposed to high levels of nuclear radiation, no, more accurately, we're still exposed!” The doctor looked so nervous that his voice couldn't help but tremble.

“How can you be sure of that? ”

“The radioiodine, the radioiodine produced by nuclear radiation, is metallic, and in the recent Fukushima nuclear accident, many respondents mentioned that they had tasted metallic when exposed to radiation. ”

“Wait, we sl in the 20th century, could this be the context of the game...”

Although the mouse ultimately didn't say that name, it doesn't matter anymore because all the players present knew what he was going to say.

Chernobyl!

The shadow and nightmare of hundreds of thousands of human beings, the worst and most horrific nuclear accident in human history, was defined as the first nuclear incident in the seventh category, while the other was the Fukushima nuclear leak in 2011. The Chernobyl nuclear accident pushed the entire European continent even once into the abyss at its most dangerous time.

“We are in Chernobyl!!!” The mechanic's color also sank, “this ozone smell, the smell of high energy nuclear radiation ionizing the air, just like in thunderstorms, we're here, April 25, 1986, or the 26th, I can't remember, we're here anyway! Chernobyl Reactor 4, that's what just exploded. ”

And just as he spoke, there were two more explosions on the other side of the metal door, but the explosion was less violent than the previous one, and the corridor just swayed a little twice.

The rat was completely stupid, “Did we just get nuclear radiation? Still in the blast center. Are we going to die soon? ”

“I heard that after the Chernobyl 4 explosion, the radiation level was 30,000 roentgens an hour," and the repairman's face turned pale, "and no organism could withstand such a high level of radiation. ”

“It's not that bad. The 30,000 roentgens should be the total amount of radiation, and the exact amount of radiation will vary greatly depending on the area. Although we're close to the reactor, the explosion was in the building when it happened.” Instead, the doctor gradually settled down and continued to explain. “Concrete doesn't help us completely isolate radiation, but it does protect me from a significant amount of radiation. Dead we must be dead, but we should have some time. ”

“How long? ”

“I don't know exactly what time it is, and it has to do with everyone's physical condition.” Doctor said, "A few days, weeks, months, if we're lucky, we might live for a few years... and of course some people die after a few hours, we don't have the instruments, we can't detect the amount of radiation now, but surely the sooner we get out of here, the better. ”

“No wonder this copy is called Invisible Killer and has no mandate time limit.” Coconut's face is ugly.

Now people feel like they've got a time bomb embedded in their heart, and the numbers on the dial are ticking, representing the rest of their lives, and nobody knows when that pointer will go to zero.

And just a few minutes ago, most people thought it would be a relaxing and enjoyable experience tour, with Simon leading the team, it doesn't matter who the opponent is anymore, but nobody expected the situation to turn sharply.

They will face an invisible and deadly enemy. Under these circumstances, even if Simon is so powerful, there is no way to take such an enemy. So the player squad no longer had the same relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, but even with low morale, the players accepted reality in the shortest possible time.

Zhang Heng asked the doctor, "Is there any way to prolong our survival? ”

“I'm going to try to explain in as simple a language as I can, the nuclear radiation generated by the nuclear fission reaction, or, more precisely, ionizing radiation, which includes a variety of rays, such as alpha rays, beta rays, gamma rays, X-rays, and neutrons, which can be roughly divided into two categories, alpha rays, beta rays, high-speed particle streams dominated by neutrons, and high-energy electromagnetic waves, such as X-rays and gamma rays. ”

The doctor sped up the speech, “Whether it's high-speed particle flow or high-energy electromagnetic waves, the most fundamental cause of harm to the human body is energy transfer. Matter is made up of atoms, and of course our body is no exception. The energy carried by high-energy electromagnetism is absorbed by atoms when it enters the body and then released in kinetic form, destroying the structure of the molecule, and the high-speed particle flow is even more powerful because there is mass that can directly crash the molecular bonds.

“The stratum corneum and proteins are good to say that even if they are destroyed, they can be gradually restored, but the most deadly thing is that DNA is destroyed, because the genetic information it carries directs all the cellular activity of the human body, and if DNA is destroyed, our cells cannot function properly. Unfortunately, even in the 21st century, at our technological level, there is nothing we can do about this molecular level of harm, so hospital treatments can only help you to slow down some of your suffering at best, or extend some of your life through instrumentation, but..."

“But what? ”

“There's nothing we can do to avoid the high levels of radiation, but we can do something to reduce it. The metallic smell that we're now experiencing comes from iodine 131, which enters our bodies through breathing and food, and eventually is heavily enriched in the thyroid gland, and in order to solve this problem, we can inject some iodine early.” Doctor, “it's like going to a restaurant to eat, taking up the table first, so I'm going to suggest we go to the hospital first, find some iodine tablets, and it should work a little bit. ”
