Restarting the Blockade (Part 1)
When Bian Senlin and 30 arrived at the control center, they saw only a mess. Countless equipment had crashed from great heights. The huge control center was so empty that it was chilling.
Bian Senlin and 30 decided to check separately, and 30 found the news first.
"Someone! Still alive, but trapped underneath."
Bian Senlin hurried over: "It's Sister Cen Cen."
Bian Senlin and 30 dug out Lu Cen Cen, whose face was covered in blood, from the gap between a heavy object.
30 saw the vague transparency of Lu Cen Cen's arm and looked solemn: "She is disappearing too."
Bian Senlin found the first aid kit and gave Lu Cencen first aid, while 30 continued to search around in the control center.
Although Lu Cencen was also disappearing, she disappeared much slower than the people outside. In addition, the closer she got to the control center, the more normal the surrounding environment became, so there must be something special about the control center.
If we find this key point, we may be able to deal with the current situation.
"Selin, look here." At this time, Yuanyuan's voice sounded in 30's mind.
After they entered here, Yuanyuan tried to access the system of the central control center, but failed due to its complex prevention and control system. However, Yuanyuan still found the key thing.
"I discovered that the entire floor of the central control center is a large device. The device is powered by spacetime energy, and it is this device that forcibly stabilizes the entire spacetime base."
"So that's how it is. The closer you are to the control center, the more normal the surrounding environment will be." After hearing Yuanyuan's explanation, 30 was thoughtful.
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
"There seems to be something wrong with the energy converter of this device. The energy of the entire device is being consumed rapidly. It is only going out but not in. It won't last long like this."
Yuan Yuan checked his energy reserves and exclaimed, "Oh no! The energy is almost exhausted."
As if to verify Yuan Yuan's words, the environment in the control center began to distort, and Lu Cencen's body became more and more transparent.
30 turned around and shouted to Bian Senlin: "Try to wake up that girl and ask her if she has any solution."
"But... she is about to disappear..." Bian Senlin said sadly. People who are transparent to a certain extent cannot hear any sounds from the outside world.
30 sighed, "Yuanyuan, is there any solution?"
"I can try, but I need your help, Forest."
"Okay, go ahead."
Yuanyuan’s approach was very direct. Since the problem was with the converter, they just built another one.
Of course, it is not a converter in the true sense. After all, they do not have the time or ability to make a converter by hand on the spot.
Yuanyuan's method is to perform energy conversion by itself instead of the converter, but the problem with this is that Yuanyuan now shares a body with 30, and the energy it converts must rely on 30's body to be transmitted into the device.
When it passes through the human body, the tolerance limit of 30 must be taken into consideration. The converted energy cannot be too large, and the duration of life will not be too long.
At this moment, the central control center began to shake again due to the spatial distortion, and 30 barely managed to stand firm.
"There's no time left. Let's stabilize it first. If the energy conversion is insufficient, shrink the protective range first. Is that okay?"
"Can."
"Let's get started!"
With the actions of 30 and Yuanyuan, the originally swaying space began to stabilize, and Lu Cencen's body, which was originally half transparent, gradually solidified.
"Sister Cen Cen? Sister Cen Cen?"
"Hmm..." Lu Cencen, who had just woken up, sat up with her hands covering her forehead.
"Sister Cen Cen, how do you feel?"
Lu Cencen regained consciousness and looked around at the surroundings. She remembered something and struggled to walk towards the control panel.
Bian Senlin helped her up and followed her to the operating table: "Sister Cen Cen, what happened? Everyone in the base..."
Lu Cen Cen had already begun checking the operation of the various facilities at the base, and at the same time, he gave a quick explanation to Bian Senlin:
"Someone went back in time and destroyed the opportunity to discover space-time technology. Space-time technology no longer exists, and the existence of the entire space-time base has become a paradox. Therefore, many people have disappeared."
30 felt it was as ridiculous as a joke: "As the space-time base that understands space-time technology the most, shouldn't they be prepared for this kind of thing to happen?"
Lu Cencen already understood the current situation of the base, and naturally knew that it was 30 who helped stabilize the energy supply.
Hearing 30's question, Lu Cen Cen could only smile bitterly: "Of course there is. Otherwise, the base and we would have been completely destroyed by now, and we wouldn't even have had the time to survive now."
The protection of the base is multi-faceted. For this kind of destruction at the source, the existing technology has limited protection, and it is more about keeping the relevant information confidential.
Information related to time, space, and the foundation of the base is top secret. Apart from the parties involved, there are very few people inside the time and space base who can see this information.
But unfortunately, this time it was a senior veteran who rebelled, and this layer of defense was largely broken.
As for the technical protection level, although the base's protection system had made certain plans for similar situations when it was first established, this destructive behavior that directly addressed the source still exceeded the upper limit of the protection system.
"'Blockade' doesn't work either?" asked Bian Senlin.
Bian Senlin had received relevant training before participating in the space-time mission. He knew that the space-time base would generally activate a 'blockade' to temporarily isolate the impact of the changes in the previous space-time on the subsequent space-time in response to such situations.
Just like the 0920 incident, large-scale changes occurred between 2014 and 2024, but under the isolation of the "blockade", the 2034 space-time was temporarily unaffected, giving the space-time base time to deal with it calmly.
"The teacher initiated a lockdown immediately after the incident, but because much of the base's infrastructure was severely damaged in that instant, the lockdown was not successfully initiated."
Lu Cen Cen thought of all the efforts Bai Yan had made before she disappeared and couldn't help but close her eyes. "I was injured and unconscious at the time, so I don't know much about the subsequent situation... But based on what I've found so far, the 'blockade' still hasn't been fully activated, and remote control is completely ineffective. It seems that manual activation is the only option."
Lu Cen Cen placed a rectangular key device on the operating table and loaded the key. After completing all this, she turned around and bowed slightly to Bian Senlin and 30, her eyes filled with caution and determination.
"Thank you for saving me. I'm going to manually activate the 'lockdown' now. If I fail, you'd better leave as soon as possible."
Lu Cencen had read 30's information and knew that he had the ability to take Bian Senlin away to another time and space.
But in the end, she still sincerely pleaded with 30: "But before I completely fail, please hold on a little longer."
"Okay, but please be quick. I can only hold on for another half an hour at most." At this time, beads of sweat appeared on 30's forehead.
At this moment, a prompt sounded: "Ding! The key was loaded successfully."
"Thank you." Lu Cen Cen thanked him carefully, took out the secret key and walked out.
"careful!"
As soon as Lu Cencen stepped out of the control center, her body quickly became transparent and she almost disappeared on the spot. Fortunately, Bian Senlin, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, pulled her back.
As time goes by and the energy supply weakens, the base's protective effect and range have been reduced to a certain extent.
Even if 30 is maintained, it can only ensure that the protection effectiveness of the central control center will not be weakened.
Lu Cencen's face turned pale. If she couldn't even get out of the control center, how could she activate the 'lockdown'?
"I'll go." Bian Senlin took the secret key from Lu Cencen's hand and said softly.
"You..." Lu Cen Cen looked at Bian Senlin in surprise.
"Although 30 and I can leave 2034, we can't really stay in a certain time and space forever. As long as time continues to move forward, we will sooner or later have to face the impact of this incident." Looking at Lu Cen Cen's stunned expression, Bian Senlin explained with a smile.
"30 and I aren't affected much. 30 needs to stay here to maintain the protection system. It's the best option for me to initiate the 'lockdown' right now."
Bian Senlin's smile was still a little shy, but his expression was sincere and determined.
"It's just that I don't know how to activate the 'blockade', so I need you, Sister Cen Cen, to give me remote instructions."
Lu Cencen suddenly felt a little dazed. The reserved boy who was at a loss when he first arrived at the space-time base seemed to have grown a lot without him noticing.
"Okay, then... please."
