Richard couldn't help but purse his lips, knowing that this might be the wisest choice, and opened his mouth to agree, but finally glanced at the coordinate system on the paper, suddenly remembered something, raised his hand lightly and said: "Wait a moment."
"Um?"
"I remember that a similar accident occurred last month when conducting experiment No. 4080, which is a 'sun in a bottle' test experiment with an energy level between 40-80. In that accident, the alpha energy indicator and beta The energy indicators all fluctuate abnormally, right?”
"Well..." Lorenz frowned, "But... wasn't it determined that the coolant in the cooling system was unstable?"
"It's true that the coolant is unstable, but logically it won't have such a big impact... At least it's an order of magnitude worse..." Richard looked at Lorenz, "Mr. Lorenz, please help me first. Find out the energy index data of that experiment."
"Okay." Lorenz walked out of the room in person this time. After a while, he returned with an old paper roll and put it on the table and unfolded it.
After unfolding, it is a similar coordinate system, with two curves, one red and one green, and similar abnormal fluctuations. However, compared with this time, the abnormal fluctuations appeared later and the amplitude was much smaller.
"The previous energy level was 40-80. When we brought it into the conversion formula we originally prescribed, the intensity impact coefficient was 3.9. This time the ability level was 300-400, and the intensity impact coefficient was... 7.0, which is nearly 1.8 times. Lower-level formulas... and then..." As Richard spoke, he waved his hand, and papers and pens from the corner of the table flew over. He started to calculate quickly with the pen in hand.
"Shashasha..."
Lines of numbers and characters were written out one after another, and one formula after another was substituted, and one new result after another was obtained.
The stewards such as Dirag and Brak gathered around Richard and watched the calculations with thoughtful expressions and frequent exchanges with their eyes.
"Swiss, swiss, swish... snap!"
Richard quickly wrote the last line and came up with a long formula with nearly ten characters, and then put the pen heavily on the table.
After taking a serious look at the formula, Richard asked the steward of the Castle of Light who was surrounding him: "This formula can perfectly include both experimental data. Do you agree with this?"
After a brief calm, several stewards gave the same answer: "Agree."
"And while I agree, don't you think this formula looks familiar?" Richard asked again.
Several stewards were slightly startled. Steward Brak, who had a tall nose, was the first to speak out: "This... seems a bit similar to the auxiliary formula in the ninth plan."
"Yes, it is the auxiliary formula in the ninth set of plans." Richard raised his voice and said, "You all should know that when we gathered to discuss the implementation of the 'Sun in a Bottle', we came up with a total of twelve sets of plans. The first set of plans The second plan had the greatest hope, but unfortunately, both failed. The third plan also had great hope, and we were lucky enough to advance to a position very close to success.
As for the ninth plan, after it was compiled, it was not favored, so it was ranked ninth. However, speaking of it, there is not much difference between the ninth plan and the third plan, or even very similar. The main difference is the addition of a supplementary auxiliary formula.
In the description of the ninth set of plans, as the energy level increases, abnormal fluctuations will occur at several 'solution' positions of the auxiliary formula. We must be alert to this fluctuation, but we can also take advantage of it. This is a relatively bold idea, somewhat dangerous, but it may also allow us to take a shortcut. "
"So, the ninth plan is the correct one?" Steward Dirag asked.
"It's not certain yet. More data needs to be collected to prove it." Richard said. After thinking for a while, he turned to Lorenz and asked, "Mr. Lorenz, I remember you just said that when you contacted Black Sun Castle, the other party Most people can’t tell the reason, so they recommend shutting down the machine for inspection, right?”
"Yes." Lorenz nodded without denying it.
"The vast majority of people...does that mean, or do some people have different opinions?"
"It's Osheimer. He told me that this accident might be consistent with reality..." Lorenz said, suddenly realizing something in the middle of the sentence, his eyebrows raised, "Hey, Osheimer seems to have been extremely..." A few people support the ninth package, right?”
"Actually, he proposed the ninth plan." Steward Brack recalled beside him. "He proposed a total of two plans, the ninth plan and the twelfth plan, but almost no one Support. Now it seems that maybe I should support him.”
"Then should we contact Osheimer again?" Dirag asked.
"No, I've already contacted you." Steward Schrodinger, who had been silent until now, stepped closer, holding a crystal ball in his hand.
Glancing at his colleagues, and then looking at Richard, Schrodinger said: "Lord Richard, Osheimer just told me that we should not shut down the machine for the time being and increase the energy level to the range of 800-1200. Test it and see the effect, maybe you will be surprised."
"800-1200." Richard pondered for a moment and said, "This range may indeed cause abnormal fluctuations to reappear, but if the ninth plan is really correct, the most suitable testing range should be between 2400-2800 energy levels. Time. Instead of trying a little bit, it is better to reveal the answer directly, then... let's increase the energy level to above 2400."
"This..." Lorenz was a little surprised, blinked and said, "Lord Richard, is this... a bit too risky? The energy level of more than 2400 is already close to a high level. In the event of an accident, the Light Castle will not be damaged. Small. In addition, although we are not close to the city of Atlanta, if there is an accident with an energy level above 2400, the city of Atlanta will also be implicated."
"Atlan City... This is indeed a bit troublesome..." Richard thought for a while and said, "Then I will give an order to let them turn on the defensive energy shield at full power."
After speaking, he glanced around the stewards of the Castle of Light, and said in a deep voice: "Anyway... everyone, don't worry about things outside of the Castle of Light. I will take care of them. Now you only need to focus on experiments." Just go up. Let’s start preparing for the experiment. There may be risks, but I believe it’s worth it.”
Looking at Richard's determined expression, the several stewards knew that Richard had made up his mind and could not be persuaded, so they had no choice but to nod and instruct the many assistants to operate.
"Shut down the backup cooling system..."
"Reduce formal cooling system power by half..."
"Connect the No. 1 energy supply line..."
“…”
When the steward of the Castle of Light was giving instructions, Richard took out a crystal ball and entered the information.
The latest lord order: Atlanta City will enter the first-level combat readiness state in the shortest possible time from now on, and be alert to the major changes that may occur next. In addition, the energy is fully deployed and the energy defense shield is turned on at full power...
