135 The Company I Can’t Leave (Thirteen)
Prometheus prepared it specifically for her.
Everything was distorted by the bomb.
The high temperature burned □□, and it was immediately burned to ashes. The giant sheep-headed man fell apart, and the powerful destructive force swept across everything.
The explosion was so fast that the scorching flames engulfed everything. Wang Qinqian felt a heat wave. She had never seen such a dazzling light.
In just a moment, those employees who shouted about the great cause were swallowed up, and the light, hope, cooperation and win-win were all melted. They could no longer utter any slogans.
The bomb started with Zhu Ning as the center, and the underground processing workshop quickly collapsed under the high temperature.
Wang Qinqian thought about her life in a short time. She grew up in the slums. In order to survive, she studied hard countless times, wrote many test papers, passed many assessments, and heard many words of suppression.
She was trapped in this company countless times and couldn't escape, and could only experience the repeated experience of being unable to live or die.
Wang Qinqian has been staying on her own track, and this is the only time she has deviated from it in her life.
The explosion brought about the grandest finale, far beyond anything she could have imagined.
She actually felt warmth. Her maximum distance of warmth used to be 40 centimeters, and she would huddle on the narrow heating pad in winter. Now, she had expanded the distance of warmth on another level.
It was warm all around, everything within sight was warm, not just warm, but extremely hot.
The heat wave was rolling, and the air around was squeezed and deformed.
Like a moth to a flame, like humans getting infinitely close to the sun.
You know there is destruction ahead, but you can't stop getting closer. Everything in the world will be shrouded in dazzling light, including herself.
She finally waited for her own death, letting everything return to dust, and she could not even feel the pain.
A life that should have died long ago has come to its end.
The explosion spread from the underground factory all the way to the basement, employee cafeteria, and cold storage room.
Then they blasted upwards layer by layer, the first, second, third floor, including the 19th floor where they had been working.
The mechanical design draft was engulfed in flames. The sheep-headed men who were typing away simply stopped what they were doing. The rectangular pupils of hundreds of sheep-headed men reflected the flames, like the shadows of surveillance screens.
When the explosion came, none of them even tried to run away. They just stood there in a daze, stunned.
Workstations, meeting rooms, tea rooms, and offices are all affected. Just like the rolling wheels, everything in the world is an ant, and the wheels will not even leave a trace after rolling over it.
All slogans, all great undertakings, all rules and regulations, and all inexplicable spiritual oppression disappeared in an instant.
The explosion started from underground. After the foundation was blown up, the entire building began to tilt and collapse. The scene of a demolition team blasting an unfinished building was no different.
There was a loud bang!
Building No. 3 in the middle of the Hang Seng Machinery Park collapsed with a loud bang, sending up dust hundreds of meters high and with continuous aftershocks. It was the sound of a huge object falling, like an avalanche.
…
Bang!
At the moment of the explosion, Zhu Ning opened the three-dimensional defense space. The system described her as immune to the damage caused by the bomb, but she had no idea what the range of immunity was.
After the three-dimensional defense space was opened, a space was created under the ruins. Zhu Ning leaned against the ruins, and her surroundings were charred black, but her body did not suffer any side effects.
Zhu Ningjing lay quietly under the ruins, the bloody smile on his helmet had faded, as if a crazy clown was calming down.
She used the bomb, which she had obtained from the fishman in the sewer a long time ago. It should be a new player gift package given to her by the system, and it has never given her such a good prop since then.
There are only three of them in total, which can blow up a building within fifteen seconds without consuming any health points and are immune to the host. Zhu Ning has always been reluctant to use them.
At that time, a dazzling light radiated out.
Zhu Ning felt a surge of heat. Just because she was immune to bomb damage didn't mean she couldn't feel it.
In her previous life, she was blown to death in the zombie world. The scorching heat wave swept across in an instant. The technology in this world was more powerful than Zhu Ning's, and its power was beyond her imagination.
The underground floor had been completely flattened, with ruins everywhere. Wang Qinqian had disappeared, and she couldn't even see a living person.
it's over?
Did Wang Qinqian get the peace she wanted?
Zhu Ning sat in the middle of the ruins, holding his head and was a little confused. The system panel was intact and the helmet was not broken.
What this system said about being immune to bombs turned out to be true.
She consumed too many system props. It turned out that being a madman has its price. This kind of desperate attempt to kill the opponent will make it very troublesome to clean up the mess later.
Zhu Ning stood up and brushed off the dust on herself. She was just about to find a way out when she suddenly stopped brushing off the dust.
The peripheral vision of the helmet caught a glimpse of something. She was not the only one in this three-dimensional defensive space.
A black crystal was lying quietly in the corner.
At that time, Zhu Ning directly applied explosives to the black crystal. After the explosion, Zhu Ning didn't care what happened at all. She drilled a hole with a dentist's electric drill and used a large explosive. Under the high-temperature bombardment, the thing was still there.
The description of the three-dimensional defense space is that all people and objects who want to enter must obtain Zhu Ning's consent.
No matter how confused she was at the time, she was sure that she had never invited it.
Because it was accidentally brought in while hanging on the crystal?
Or... this Class C contaminated item is completely ineffective against it?
It just cracked. The explosives created several cracks on the surface of the black crystal, like a potato roasting red in charcoal fire, with a fiery red light revealing from the cracks.
What the hell is this?
Zhu Ning felt as if he was hallucinating. It was very similar to the ending of a horror movie, where the protagonist went to great lengths to kill his companions and thought he had escaped, but when he turned around, he found a ghost hand behind him.
The evil spirit is still there, and all resistance is futile.
Zhu Ning felt a burning pain in her throat when she breathed. This was her first reaction to the side effects of radiation.
If this were reality now, she would only feel physically unwell after a month of exposure, but her body is being corroded.
And there are no contaminating spores around.
There was not a single particle, the ruins were all silent, even Wang Qinqian, the pollutant that could talk to herself, disappeared, and not even a monster came to attack her.
Quiet.
There was an eerie silence here. Zhu Ning and an unknown energy source were buried deep under the ruins. If no one came in, she might be completely forgotten.
How long could Zhu Ning hold out? What would she do after the three-dimensional defense space disappeared? Would she continue using it until her life was exhausted?
Puff——
A red tentacle squirmed out from the cracked black crystal. The moment Zhu Ning saw the tentacle, he felt something in his brain squirm.
"How much is this batch of goods?"
"10,000 Singapore dollars a ton, do you want it?"
"Forget it, load the car."
A memory suddenly flooded into Zhu Ning's mind, like the backflow of seawater without any warning.
She saw the past of this so-called new energy.
The background is a garbage dump with a huge mechanical gripper on it, which is grabbing the garbage to another area.
Next to it is an assembly line that automatically sorts out metals that can be reused.
The sorted garbage was reloaded and transported to the garbage disposal company in District 103.
Most companies in District 103 are engaged in this business. Backed by a garbage dump, they recycle useful metals, clean them and recreate them into raw materials, and then sell them to other machinery companies.
This is how the Hang Seng Machinery Company started out. They initially did waste recycling and later moved into mechanical design.
During the transition period, most of their income came from garbage disposal.
The garbage truck bumped all the way to the Hengsheng Machinery Park, where mountains of garbage were dumped onto an assembly line for re-sorting. This assembly line required workers to supervise.
"What is this?" An employee found something in the sorting machine, and the screen showed that it was a regular black cube.
It's very strange, square, with smooth edges, like an alien creation.
"I don't know. It looks black." The sorter used a metal arm to pick it out and carefully examined it. "Report it."
The sorter is just an employee. His job is to find the fish that have slipped through the net, and sometimes he really can find precious metals.
Their work is more streamlined and more efficient. It is because of the existence of these large companies that the returns from the defective products in the garbage dump are getting worse and worse, and the probability of them finding gold is getting lower and lower.
Nowadays, there are countless people competing for such a lowly job as garbage collecting.
The garbage department sent the stone to the appraisal department, and the appraiser checked it with various machines and used all kinds of equipment, and then put down the testing equipment in confusion.
"It doesn't match any of the metals we have," the inspector said. "It could be junk or a rare item."
The appraiser gave his judgment, and the stone was sent to the company's internal laboratory. They performed several routine tests on the strange stone, but it was motionless, like a dead object.
Until it was discovered that there was a powerful energy source in its core, "It's energy."
After knowing that it was an energy source, the department allocated funds to increase the experimental costs. The initial research results were all good news. This was more than just an energy source, it was a rich mine, and its energy far exceeded that of the contaminated spores.
The experimental team expanded, working overtime every day, and the researchers were crazy about it. Then came the bad news: "It can't be developed. There is radiation."
At this point, it has gone beyond the researcher's scope of work, and no one knows what to do with the stone.
So it was sent up layer by layer, and finally arrived at the board's desk. People looked at the black crystal locked in the protective shield.
There were many people gathered around the long conference table, but Zhu Ning's faces were blurry. "Is this a new energy source?"
"Are we going to get rich?"
"There's strong radiation," someone said. "It might kill us."
"I think it's very dangerous. We finally got rid of the old production line. From now on, we can just do mechanical design. We just received a large order for mechanical intelligent massage cabins. If we continue to pursue this business, we will definitely succeed. It is safer to be pragmatic."
"If this is new energy, it would be more valuable than contaminated spores," someone commented. "Do you know how valuable contaminated spores are? Our company can't even set up a production line to process them."
It is too expensive for them to participate and they can only watch the cleaning center make profits.
"Old Xu, the scariest thing in the world isn't ghosts," someone taunted. "It's watching others make money while you don't get a penny."
Big companies reap the benefits from upstream, while they can only deal with garbage downstream.
If capital is divided into high and low, they are the cheapest in the downstream.
They all looked towards the chairman's seat. At the far end of the long table sat a man who hadn't spoken a word.
Everyone was waiting for his opinion.
He put his hands down and said, "This is the future."
It’s a done deal. This is the future, not just the company’s future, but the future of humanity.
They want to develop new energy.
The faces of the people at the long table twisted, like a piece of paper being crumpled into a ball. Then the stone was sent to the development department, where only outstanding employees were allowed to touch it...
The source of the story is complete.
Zhu Ning woke up in an instant. She felt cold all over, and the pollutants in her brain were wriggling, forming a certain resonance with the black crystal.
She seemed to know what this new energy was. It was the same as what was in her own brain, that is, the brain of a scrapped experimental subject.
An experimental product carelessly discarded in a landfill can trigger a severe pollution incident and become the source of nightmares for countless people.
Why is this thing here?
The tasks pushed by the tomb post are all related to Zhu Ning’s secret. This contaminated area was specially prepared for her by Prometheus.
This company has been registered with the technical department of the cleaning center. Just like the dentist's office, Prometheus wants to make sure that Zhu Ning can take action before the demon hunters from the cleaning center enter.
Zhu Ning saw the red tentacles behind him wriggling, bringing out a bunch of mechanical parts. There were even wires wrapped around the surface of the tentacles. The machinery and pollutants were fused and regenerated. At first, it was only as small as a little finger, and then it expanded rapidly, getting bigger and bigger, and would eventually wrap around Zhu Ning's entire body.
