Create a sandbox world
Chapter 29 The Destruction of the Empire
Whatever the price!
For some reason, while hearing this sentence, the chief scholar still felt a sudden cold in his hands and feet when the heating was turned on in the room.
"What are you going to do?" he asked, opening his mouth.
"Create a powerful super weapon and blast the border away!" The emperor waved his hand, "In my early years, I established a weapon research institute and a supporting military factory in Xizhou.
The firearms and artillery crafted are more sophisticated than the old army.
I plan to promote it to the Xizhou Special Research Institute, mobilize a group of top scientists, develop super weapons, and launch a new world. How do you... feel?"
"This……"
Hearing these words, the chief scholar Rao Shi has faintly guessed, and his heart is still shaken.
Blast the borders of the world!
What a crazy idea is this?It should be understood that in the Chi State period, since the discovery of the "border", although the emperors of the past dynasties have not stopped exploring, no one has ever made such a decision.
Maybe someone thought about it in their hearts, but after all, they didn't really order the implementation.
After all, this must be a costly and horrible project, and it is likely to fail. Moreover, there are always rumors among the people that outside the border is the residence of the gods.
And no emperor dared to risk the world's disgrace and break into the realm of God.
But the emperor of the new dynasty dare!
As for whether to accept... Whether as a top scientific worker or as a "favorite" of the emperor, he seems to have no reason to refuse.
"...Yes."
...
...
"boom!!"
Li Shanwu Hall, in the study.
As Lin Tuo knocked down the mouse, the last shot echoed in the headset.
On the screen, the last enemy fell neatly on the edge of the poison circle.
"Huh, is it helpful to improve your physical fitness to play games?" Lin Tuo leaned back in the chair, slowly taking off the headphones, muttering in his heart.
After working, he rarely played games, and he could play one or two games a month.
Marksmanship has also fallen sharply.
Unexpectedly, he won three games in a row easily.
Although there is also a low segment of his account, because of the fish pond bureau...
"Well, it should be ether tempered the body, which increased the speed of nerve response, and my concentration was more concentrated than before."
I got up, took out a can of Coke from the refrigerator in the next room, and just opened it, the alarm clock set by the phone rang again.
"It's time to collect ether again."
Lin Tuo was shocked. He ran back to the sand table and looked down. He found that on the sand table mainland, the scale of the city had expanded, and the architectural style of the houses had also been improved.
Many areas have changed.
The most obvious are the countless electric lights at night and public trams in the city. In addition to bicycles, there are also a few cars on the streets.
It's just still bulky and scarce, and it seems to be in the early stages of development.
"It's developing very fast..."
Lin Tuo sighed, then performed the "breathing method" again, inhaled hard, and then turned his head contentedly and ate lunch briefly.
Then I was immersed in the game again.
...
...
Within the sand table empire.
In a blink of an eye, it has been ten years since the establishment of the New Dynasty.
Compared with the rapidly changing Kyoto and many industrial cities.
The Xizhou Special Research Institute, which is far away in Daxizhou, hiding among the mountains, does not seem to have changed much.
From a distance, there are only a few more buildings and a lot of new equipment inside.
But the whole area is still deserted, with few people.
Especially at night, it is especially cold, and only the wolf howling is the company.
Only from the accounts of the Kyoto National Treasury, through a steady stream of scary cash inflows, can people notice this borderland.
"We are a group of pioneers who have a mission and must endure the bitter cold and loneliness."
For ten years, the chief scientist has always used such words to inspire others.
With the emperor’s extravagant investment and the dividends of the times, the research on super weapons has also been a pleasant surprise.
The levels were broken one by one, and the super weapon also evolved from the idea in the mind, the sketch on the drawing... and finally into a real entity.
And conducted several small-scale detonation experiments.
This time made the chief scientist very excited, however, as the level of research progressed, as the exploration and understanding of the "boundary" deepened, he began to waver.
Began to wonder, can the "boundary" really be broken?
then.
In a late autumn, when His Majesty the Emperor came here again to inspect, he finally plucked up the courage to express his worries.
"So, you want to tell me that the research failed?"
Research Institute, in a certain room.
The ten-year-old emperor asked with cold eyes.
Ten years have passed, probably because of national affairs. The high-spirited middle-aged people have already appeared old, with faint beards and hair, but their majesty has increased day by day.
This is especially true for officials in Kyoto.
When the country stabilized, the emperor began to extend his hand to the entire society, with a high degree of centralization, an iron-fist style of rule, tightening public opinion, and gradually deepening his control of the country.
In the first few years, at least he was able to listen to the opinions of his courtiers. Recently, it has become more arbitrary and the atmosphere in the court has become more tense.
"No, your majesty, everything went smoothly, but the boundary is far stronger than we thought at the beginning, so that the shock wave we originally conceived of using a super warhead would be difficult to shake."
The chief scholar trembled and quickly explained.
"It's hard to shake?" After repeating the word, the emperor said with a faint gaze and a stern tone, "There is nothing in this world that cannot be destroyed.
If so, it can only show that the power of the weapon is not strong enough, and the determination to destroy it is not strong enough."
"Yes... I have no doubt about your determination. As for the power of the weapon... you can never increase it indefinitely. The power of a single warhead has a ceiling..."
"If one is not enough, then add a few more!" The emperor's eyes were firm, "one can't be blown, then make a thousand, ten thousand! If the funds are not enough, I will raise you from the empire."
"This is not a question of funding..." The chief scientist smiled bitterly, "We have also thought about this plan. In theory, it is indeed possible to increase destructive power through stacking.
But once the power caused by the explosion exceeds a certain value.
It will have a serious impact on the ecology of the entire continent... or even more serious, it may lead to the destruction of the world."
"Destroy?" Chewing the word, the emperor, who was already in his old age, suddenly looked very strange, his eyes were straight, as if some kind of madness was brewing.
The tone was extremely calm: "After this year, I will be sixty years old."
"Huh?" The chief scholar was a little dazed.
"Some time ago, the royal doctor told me that there was a tumor in my brain. With the current medical technology, it is very risky to have surgery, so I can't live long."
"Your Majesty...you don't have to be like this..."
As soon as the chief scholar spoke, he was stopped by the opponent raising his hand:
"In the first half of my life, I was an emperor, and I should be satisfied if I want to come, but I am not reconciled. I want to see with my own eyes what it looks like outside the border before I die."
After a pause, he continued:
"Do you remember what I said when I talked to you about this experiment for the first time that winter ten years ago? I said, I want to conquer it, no matter what the cost."
"This……"
"Well, you go out first, and help me call all the core leaders of this project. I want to have a meeting." The emperor suddenly changed his conversation and said.
"Ah... yes."
The chief scholar walked out in a daze, although vaguely felt that something was wrong, he did not dare to resist his orders.
Soon, he returned here with a dozen core leaders of the project.
Because the project is top-secret, most of the researchers below are not clear about the details of the plan, only these people know.
"Your Majesty? Everyone is there." When a group of people walked into the conference room, the chief scholar saw the old emperor sitting on the main seat of the conference room with his back to the crowd.
Hearing this, he slowly turned around.
In the right hand, but I don't know when, a square and simple, radiant seal appeared.
"Secret Seal?! Your Majesty..."
The chief scholar's face changed suddenly and he finally guessed something.
Immediately, he saw the old emperor activate the secret seal, unfold the power of hypnosis, and smiled to the people:
"Now, let us destroy the world together."
...
...
"Guru..."
Li Sanwukan.
When Lin Tuo finished the last game contentedly, there was a burst of hunger in his belly.
No way, I dealt with snacks at noon and didn't eat it seriously.
"It's all at this time." Looking at the time, it was almost evening, and Lin Tuo was startled.
Entertainment really kills time, it doesn't feel like it yet, it's almost night.
After exiting the game, turning off the computer, Lin Tuo glanced at the sand table again, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
I saw that at this moment, aircraft seemed to have begun to appear in the sand table.
Of course, it can only fly at low altitude.
"It's faster than I thought." Xiaoxiao exclaimed, Lin Tuo shook his head and switched the derivation sand table to the "observation mode."
The light and shadow changed, and in a blink of an eye, Yangcheng replaced the "Xin Dynasty" and stood before him.
"I have been busy for so long, let's have a good meal tonight, what to eat... Well, that's it." Lin Tuo looked down at Yangcheng, his eyes on a hot pot restaurant he had visited before.
Although it is a little strange to eat hot pot alone, there is no way.
Put his finger into the quiet place of the sand table, release the clone, then pose the main body in the chair, switch to realize the clone... He is already very familiar with this whole set of operations.
Compared to going down the mountain to eat for an hour or two, this way is much better.
In particular, if the body does not go out, if there is an "accident", it can be dealt with quickly.
"Accidents? What accidents can there be, you won't be able to eat a meal, and change the dynasty again?"
Walking out of a secluded alley in Yangcheng, Lin Tuo muttered in his heart.
Then he walked towards the net red hot pot restaurant in front of him in a good mood:
"Forgot to make an appointment, I don't know if I can get a seat..."
...
Yangcheng was calm and calm.
At the same time, inside Tucker's black box, inside the sand table empire.
The depths of Daxizhou.
An "experiment" that is crazy enough to destroy the world is about to begin.
