Chapter 420 Fixed Closing Time
Chen Lin quickly set off after receiving Professor Yu’s reminder. Although there were not many flying equipment stored on top of the Skyfury aerospace aircraft carrier, they could allow them to quickly transfer aircraft. There were still some. While Xiao Wu was running behind, he received a message from the aerospace aircraft carrier, telling them where to go and that the Suzaku aircraft was ready for them.
Xiao Wu quickly followed up to remind Chen Lin. Before Chen Lin could ask for directions, the intelligent assistant had already given guidance signs.
The group of people rushed to the area where the aircraft was stored below in less than three minutes. Chen Lin did not even have any obstacles along the way. The two Suzaku aircraft had been launched at this time, and the small runway in front was also cleared. , as soon as the soldiers below saw their figures appearing, they immediately sent a message to the Hongshan Base. After seeing Chen Lin coming, a small group of soldiers suddenly saluted Chen Lin.
“Colonel Chen!”
However, Chen Lin waved his hand and jumped to the door of a Suzaku aircraft. "Time is urgent, no more nonsense, let's go!"
Xiao Wu jumped up immediately, and the group After hurriedly connecting with the people below, they all jumped on the Suzaku flying device. Immediately, Chen Lin urged the pilot in front to take off quickly.
"What's going on now?"
Chen Lin spoke up, Xiao Wu and others remained silent, but the Pioneer intelligent assistant that had been following Chen Lin lit up. , this gadget instantly projected the surrounding area into a three-dimensional image, and the main portal of Hongshan Base in Shanhai City immediately appeared inside.
The size of the main portal is actually doubled than before. The huge portal is surrounded by a large number of lines, train tracks and oil pipelines, and even ultra-high voltage transmission lines are erected in both sides.
At this time, the intelligent assistant used a holographic simulation screen to show Chen Lin and others the situation of the scene - the sudden closing of the portal cut off the connection on both sides, and all the lines and pipes in the portal part of Shanhai City were cut off. There was a freight train running. After realizing that something was wrong, the train accelerated to leave the portal. The closed portal still completely cut open the train car at the rear...
The explosion was due to a problem with the oil pipeline, the broken line. It directly caused a fire. After falling, it caused a chain reaction with the oil pipeline on the ground. Several controllers quickly exploded in the fire, and the flames shot into the sky.
However, the intelligent assistant quickly refreshed the situation on the scene. The portal area on the earth side was quickly controlled. The main control center immediately stopped all transportation operations and mobilized A large number of firefighters and emergency department staff went to the scene, and the fire was quickly extinguished. According to the situation at the scene, the number of casualties caused by this accident would not be too many.
The situation on the Origin Star is even better than here on Earth. The suddenly closed portal cut off pipes and lines. The outpost found it earlier than the Red Mountain Base, and it directly activated the emergency plan. , forced the closure of all transportation work on site, and some trucks were lost, but overall it was within the tolerable range.
Chen Lin and a group of guards arrived at the portal area of Hongshan Base in Shanhai City a few minutes later. The area was still under emergency martial law, and a large number of firefighters and staff were still dealing with the scene. Professor Yu and others settled the situation and hurried over to meet Chen Lin.
"What's going on?"
As soon as Chen Lin and Professor Yu met, they hurriedly asked, "Why did the portal suddenly close? What test are you doing that failed?"
Professor Yu had a depressed look on his face and shook his head after hearing Chen Lin's words.
“Our research on the portal has only been carried out with those small open doors. We have never done any research on the main portal. Who knows what happened, but the main portal suddenly closed. , many of us at the scene didn’t understand what was going on..."
"How much was the loss?"
"It's not that much, maybe a few million."
Professor Yu wiped the sweat from his forehead. After his legs and feet could run and jump, his work became busier than before. , as soon as today's accident happened, he arrived at the scene as soon as possible, but professionals do professional things, and those in the emergency response department are far more professional than him. After the firefighters extinguished the fire, the situation here was also Basically under control.
"The association also called to ask about the situation. I can only say that it was an unexpected situation..."
"It's easier to say now that you are here, hurry up and see what's going on. "
Chen Lin frowned slightly, but didn't say much, just followed Professor Yu and a scientific research team around him towards the portal.
The portal is currently closed, and a large number of workers are still busy at the scene. They are dismantling all the damaged lines and damaged facilities and throwing them aside, and cleaning up the area around the portal as much as possible.
Professor Yu whispered to Chen Lin: "The association speculates that someone used a special device to close the portal. Now the association is following this method to investigate..."
Chen Lin stepped forward and looked at the portal. He didn't find anything strange, but the current situation was still unclear. It was indeed inappropriate to open the main portal rashly. He turned to look at Professor Yu.
“Open a small test first?”
“This is the best!”
Professor Yu immediately agreed, and the two of them rushed to the experimental center not far away. There were more than a dozen small portals opened for testing. Now, as the main portal is closed, these things are all closed. , it is obviously not a single phenomenon.
Chen Lin directly took off his gloves, leaving only the door frame of the original portal. He touched the door frame with his left hand again, and with a slight tap, the green portal opened again.
"There seems to be no problem?"
He stared at the portal for several seconds, and then said to Professor Yu, "No other abnormalities were found. I will test closing it again. "How?"
Opening the left hand and closing it on the right, although Chen Lin had not worried about the portal for more than three months, his ability was still there. At this time, he directly touched the portal with his right hand, and immediately Just let the bright green light inside the portal dissipate.
But when it disappeared, the process was slow. Professor Yu noticed it after taking a look and reminded Chen Lin.
"If this is the case, then the inexplicable closure of these portals is not because of me."
After hearing this, Chen Lin said to Professor Yu, "I closed the teleportation There is a slow process when opening the portal. You just said that the green inner walls of those portals suddenly dissipated without even having time to react. This means that the closing has little to do with me."
Professor Yu Weiwei. Nodding, what Chen Lin said was true. "What's the reason? Is it really caused by our research?"
Chen Lin stared at the portal for a few seconds, and then asked Professor Yu: "How long has it been since the last time the portal was upgraded?"
Professor Yu hasn't even appeared yet. The intelligent assistant next to Chen Lin had already given him the answer in advance - as of last night, 1070 hours had actually passed. When converted, it was actually about forty-five days. By the time the portal was closed this morning , the time is exactly 1080 hours.
Converted to forty-five days.
“It’s been about forty-five days. Last time you came into contact with those special raw ores on the Omir continent and your abilities were upgraded. Then you used your abilities to upgrade all the portals. Maybe There is a sequence, but generally they are similar."
Professor Yu figured it out at this time. He stared at Chen Lin and said hesitantly: "You mean...there are also these upgraded portals. Time limit? ”
"These small transmission doors were opened behind me. We will know after investigating the monitoring and testing data in the laboratory and verifying the closing time."
After Chen Lin finished speaking, Professor Yu immediately personally He went to the console to adjust the data and monitoring screen. Some staff on site skillfully helped him pull out the data table. After comparison, they noticed that the small transmission doors were indeed closed one after another.
The order of closing time coincides with the order of time when Chen Lin opened it.
"Let's put it this way..."
Chen Lin touched his chin and clicked his tongue: "The closing of the portal may not be due to any external reasons, but just because the time has come for this thing."
Professor Yu was stunned for a moment, and then an indescribable look appeared on his face: "The upgraded portal also has such restrictions?"
"We couldn't have known this type of restrictions before, isn't this You won’t find out until after it appears.”
Chen Lin comforted him, “But it’s much better than before. At first, the portal could only be opened on one side, but after the upgrade, it became double-sided and you can pull the wire. Although there is a time limit, it won’t be a problem for the association after we figure it out.”
Professor Yu nodded slightly when he heard this, what Chen Lin said was very reasonable.
He personally took the video and pictures of the small portal, and then hurriedly called the association to talk about it. Chen Lin did some testing and data comparison at the scene. After confirming that there is a time limit for opening the portal, I settled down and prepared to wait for the notification to open the main portal again.
A few minutes later, Professor Yu Linyu hung up the phone.
"The association already knows what's going on. Let's test opening the main portal first. Some simple tests still need your help. We are currently just giving the most likely guess. If After the new round of upgrades, the portal can only be opened for forty-five days, so we may be able to control the opening and closing of the gate by artificially closing it."
Professor Yu spoke to Chen Lin, As a result, a staff member behind him raised his head and said to several people: "The data may not be right. The time we opened the portal before and the time we closed it this time are not the standard forty-five days..."
Chen Lin signaled him to move the time forward. Before the ability was upgraded, the portal was in a state of frequent opening and closing. If the current opening time and battery life were related to that time, they would Time needs to be recalculated.
The staff quickly pulled out the earlier data. There were detailed records of every time the door was opened. They compared it according to the time Chen Lin said and went through a lot of trouble. Afterwards, a data that was infinitely close to 1080 hours was indeed measured.
"There shouldn't be much difference in time. At that time, the time changed more frequently. At first it was three days, then it was six days, and then it was three or nine... I have almost forgotten the time rules for opening the door."
Chen Lin raised his eyebrows slightly, while Professor Yu in front of him stared at the data displayed on the computer for dozens of seconds. Finally, he raised his head after hearing Chen Lin's words: "It's a time limit. , it has been forty-five days since the last time you opened the portal. Due to something happening at the Red Mountain Base, you frequently traveled in and out of the two places. This time should not be counted in the closing time of the portal..."
He pointed at the data above and compared it carefully with Chen Lin. Chen Lin tried hard to recall it, and he vaguely remembered that he did frequently travel between the two planets in those days, and he knew exactly what he was doing. Can't remember.
The two finally confirmed one thing repeatedly - that is, the fixed closing time of the portal after the upgrade is 1080 hours, which is forty-five days.
This closing time is not affected by closing and opening in the middle. When the time is up, it will automatically close so that they must open the portal again...
Professor Yu pulled out the data and looked at it several times, and finally came to the conclusion that even the closing of the portal at this time was included in the calculation, but fortunately they had records of the time when the portal was closed this time, so they would not say the next time I was in a hurry when I forcibly closed the portal, and I ended up just like today.
“How come this problem didn’t occur during the one-sided portal before?”
Chen Lin saw that everyone was still busy looking at the data, and couldn’t help but ask Professor Yu. , he responded without raising his head: "It's just a new rule. Previously, the portal would be opened in rotation every three to five days, and no lines or other things could be connected in between. Even if it was closed, it would not have any impact on us. How big will it be?”
“After the upgrade, the portal is always open on both sides, and lines and transmission pipelines can be connected in the middle. Freight trains do not stop every day, which has a huge impact. "
Professor Yu closed his eyes and let himself rest as much as possible. He said to Chen Lin: "It is very likely that this restriction only came after the portal was opened on a regular basis. It did not exist before. This situation...but the subsequent impact will not be too great. Since we all know its operating rules, the association and the base should make corresponding preparations.”
"The lines and pipes connecting the two places should be changed into special interfaces to facilitate disconnection and reconnection at any time..."
"By the way, the most important thing is actually your side."< br>
Professor Yu opened his eyes and said tiredly to Chen Lin: "You will need to come back once every forty-five days. I understand what happened at the portal. I still can't do it without you. , Your boy’s task is still very heavy!”
Chen Lin smiled and said nothing. Now that the situation is like this, he has nothing to say.
I thought that the portal could continue like this forever, and he could just hang out leisurely in the following days. Who could have imagined that such an unexpected situation would occur, but Chen Lin's importance was once again revealed Sex taken to the highest level...
