Northern Alliance Area.
One of the few pure lands in the entire Pan-Asia region. The reason why it was called a pure land was only relative to the devastated ruins.
The survivors abandoned on the wasteland migrated north and established a survivor settlement with local survivors in the mountains south of Jincheng adjacent to the Yellow River. Before the war, the population base was not high, so the density of zombies was naturally relatively low. Without direct nuclear attack, the radiation level was far lower than in developed areas, and the mutant density was also extremely low. Other than the mutants that migrated from the north of Jincheng, there was almost no fatal danger here.
Stability naturally brought order and prosperity.
Although the environment was harsh and the soil was barren, they still opened up thousands of acres of "fertile land" on the wasteland. Even if the output was not high, it still fed tens of thousands of survivors who fled here.
Dictatorial, powerful, and stable.
These three words were enough to describe everything about this "empire."
Although it was flaunted as "joint rule," the military police that controlled the "security" of the survivor settlement had the power to kill all survivors. In the form of a military government, they controlled the production of food and ruled the entire Northern Alliance Area.
It was rumored that they were plotting against Wanghai and had been doing so for a long time.
Of course, Sun Xiaorou was not a member of the military police, but belonged to a religious organization active in the north – the Dusk Church.
They preached the coming of the apocalypse and believed in the fear of the apocalypse. But different from most people in despair, they also firmly believed that their spiritual leader, Bo Yu, could lead them out of the solar system and find the second sun – a new home that belonged to humanity.
Coincidentally, the purpose of their visit to Wanghai was for the buried in Fallout Shelter 005 to obtain the ability to establish a small biosphere in space.
In order to enter the Urban Construction Bureau in the city center and obtain the specific coordinates of Fallout Shelter 005, they did not hesitate to collude with the mutated humans in the Seventh Area. The mutated humans' munitions, as well as the password to the Kalman Corporation's security system, were all provided by them.
Unfortunately, they were destined to return empty-handed. Other than a pile of scrap metal, there was almost nothing left. When Jiang Chen wiped out the mutated creatures that broke into Fallout Shelter 005, he blew up the artificial intelligence server and emptied everything useful inside the facility.
As to the "metal box" that stored the Garden of Eden, after Lin Lin copied the data to the chip in her brain, he destroyed the original.
He wondered what Bo Yu's expression would be like when he finally arrived at Fallout Shelter 005 and saw the ground full of debris.
But regardless, even if Jiang Chen knew the current situation of Fallout Shelter 005, he couldn't stand in front of him and tell him: Fallout Shelter 005 was destroyed by me and everything inside was taken away by me.
Since that was the case, the conflict between the two sides was naturally unavoidable. Jiang Chen could not allow the mutated humans to enter Qingpu, and the leader of the Dusk, Bo Yu, would not give up on the city center. By sending his subordinates to assassinate him, he had already made it clear that he was hostile.
Sun Xiaorou had no memory of how the weapons were transported to Wanghai or how she joined the Dusk. After all, he had joined the church at a very young age, and according to the usual behavior of religious organizations, there was no way he could escape from brainwashing.
Also, there was the matter of crystals.
In the end, Sun Xiaorou, who was in a semi-conscious state, began to babble nonsense. From the scattered words, Jiang Chen could not summarize the information she said.
But she repeatedly emphasized a key word that caught his attention.
Klein particle.
It was the third time he heard this word.
…
"Ah!"
Just as he pushed open Lin Lin's door, he heard a short scream.
Jiang Chen looked confusedly at Lin Lin who was shivering.
"What's wrong?"
"No, nothing!"
The high-pitched voice seemed to be out of tune.
Did she receive some kind of shock?
Because Lin Lin often went crazy, Jiang Chen didn't bother to deal with her and asked directly.
"About what happened last night, I have something to ask."
Lin Lin gulped adorably and nodded like a chick pecking at grains.
It was rare for her to be so cooperative.
In the past, shouldn't he start his sentence with "Hmph, why must I help you?" or something like that?
Of course, he didn't know that Lin Lin, the disobedient girl, sneaked back after he closed the door and heard something bad at the door.
"… Then I'll ask, last night, was it Tingting who shot out red light from her eyes?"
When he mentioned the name Tingting, Jiang Chen's expression was a bit strange.
Although in the virtual world, she appeared as a human and became a couple with him, her original body was a "bug."
"Mhmm!" Lin Lin nodded her head vigorously.
"That ray, what was it?"
Hearing this, Lin Lin's expression also became serious.
"This is what I wanted to say … I found something unusual on the crystal."
Then, Lin Lin ran to the experiment table and took off a crystal polished into a mirror, then placed it into the glass cover of a strange-looking instrument.
"This is?"
"You wouldn't understand even if I told you. It's a very convenient instrument … I used to think you guys were just like magpies collecting these shiny stones as currency, and at the same time, as a substitute for fossil fuels. But yesterday, I studied it in detail, and this thing is not that simple."
In the glass cover, the green crystal began to change color.
"When one crystal is completely burned, it will release energy equivalent to 2.47 kg of standard coal. Then, it will turn into this state. "
The crystal lost its luster and turned into a quartz-like state.
"And then?" Jiang Chen looked at the faded crystal with interest.
Lin Lin didn't answer Jiang Chen's question, but instead asked with a mysterious expression, "Have you heard of the fourth dimension?"
"Fourth dimension? Space and time with a timeline? "Jiang Chen had heard of this before since he was 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. One reason was because the concept was too abstract, and the other was because he was confused as to why she suddenly asked this question.
"Everything in this world, including you and me, can be summarized by three parameters: length, width, and height. This is the third dimension. But if you add a timeline to it, the Jiang Chen that exists today and the Jiang Chen that exists tomorrow are two different existences in the fourth dimension. Just like Lin Lin who is 1.5 meters tall and Lin Lin who is two meters tall, they are two different existences in the third dimension. "
"If you add a timeline to the energy. Imagine this crystal's' energy for today 'is used up, but tens of thousands of years later, its energy is recharged … "
"Wait, what about the conservation of mass?" Jiang Chen interrupted.
"Of course it's conserved. Because from the beginning, Klein particles exist in the fourth dimension, it's just that we are limited to a 'certain point' and can't see it. But at a specific point in time, part of the Klein particles will fall into the third dimension, and in our eyes, it's' full of energy. '"
Because it was too sci-fi, even if Lin Lin explained in detail and slowly, Jiang Chen still didn't fully understand.
"You can try this crystal and use your ability to extract its energy. By the way, the previous energy value of this crystal was 5. "Lin Lin put the colorless crystal in Jiang Chen's hand.
It was already empty.
There was no way it could be used to charge the interdimensional bracelet, right?
Although Jiang Chen thought about it, he still followed Lin Lin's instructions and held the crystal in his hand.
Then, a shocked expression appeared on his face.
It was an empty crystal, but he was able to extract energy from it.
And the energy that the bracelet provided was no less than the five crystals!
"Is it the energy residue?" Jiang Chen asked with difficulty.
Lin Lin shook her head.
"The energy that exists in the third dimension has been completely used up. No matter which production equipment you take this crystal to, it can't be used as an energy source. But should I say it's just as I expected? Your interdimensional bracelet can directly extract the Klein particles in the fourth dimension. In other words, you used up all the energy that it might have in the future. "
Jiang Chen's eyes widened as he stared at his right wrist, at the lines.
"No, it can also be charged to replenish energy. If it's fully charged, it would require 100 kWh of electricity. If you use crystals, it would only require 10. But based on what you said, one crystal, just the energy that has fallen to the third dimension is equivalent to 2.47 kilograms of standard coal. The energy of 10 crystals of Klein particles is at least ten times more than 100 kWh of electricity, right? "
Lin Lin sighed.
"Think about it carefully. When you used electricity to charge the interdimensional bracelet, did the electricity flow from your hand to your body to the ground?"
Jiang Chen frowned as he recalled the time when he charged the bracelet before he shook his head.
"No."
"Of course not. If there was, your entire body would have been burnt to a crisp by now. "Lin Lin said with malice.
"The electricity that your bracelet absorbs is not the energy produced when the electrons flow from the negative electrode to the positive electrode, but it directly consumes the electrons themselves. It's troublesome to explain. You can think of it as a form of annihilation. Speaking of this, you wouldn't think that 100 kWh of electricity could do something like traveling through space and time, right? "Lin Lin couldn't help but ridicule him.
"So, the crystal … this biological crystal is the container for the Klein particles?"
"That's right. I still haven't figured out how it contains the mysterious Klein particles. All in all, the crystal is not something simple. Including the female assassin detonating the crystal, and the red ray shot by Tingting, they are all phenomena produced by the decay of the Klein particles into the third dimension, "Lin Lin said solemnly.
