The road sign core room is the heart of the entire road sign system.

Here, dozens of ultra-large quantum computers operate continuously, controlling the activities of hundreds of time-out entangled quantum pairs.

In order to ensure that the quantum pairs are not disturbed by any external influences, the core chamber is designed to be a perfectly closed structure - that is to say, there is not only no air, no magnetic field, but even observers are not allowed to exist.

If you want to enter the core room, the first thing to do is to interrupt all timeout communications to avoid collapse caused by observations while the computer is running.

Ye Zhou was going to check the core room, which meant that communication with Chengdu would be temporarily interrupted. But the problem was that without Chengdu's assistance, it would be difficult for him to discover problems with the road sign system.

His identity is indeed a relevant technical personnel, and the information flow has indeed provided him with sufficient knowledge. However, for a large system like this, it is absolutely impossible for one person to complete the inspection of all modules within a period of time.

However, he had no choice.

There are only 26 hours left for the life support system to work. If nothing is done, he will miss the last opportunity to function.

"Is there a list of problems? Judging from the current situation, which modules may have problems?"

Ye Zhou asked calmly.

"It's hard to say, we've never been in a situation like this."

"However, I suggest you check the positioning system first, followed by the frequency division system and timing system. If there are no problems with these three systems, then you can only take the last option."

"What way?"

"Completely shut down the road sign system of Shanghai Center and destroy all entangled quantum pairs."

"Are you sure this will get the other road signs back on?"

After hearing Ye Zhou's words, the woman was silent for a moment and then answered:

"It's unlikely... I suggest not to implement this plan until the last moment, because that will make us lose all our chips."

Ye Zhou nodded, thought for a long time, and then said in a low tone:

"But this is the only choice I can make."

"The life support system of this base is about to collapse. I am the only living person in the base."

"Even if the road sign is not closed, you will not be able to obtain any information from here after 26 hours."

"The potential of this base has been drained... If destruction can allow it to play its final role, then there is no need to hesitate."

The woman opposite let out a long sigh.

In fact, she understands better than Ye Zhou how to make the right choice, and she also knows that for Ye Zhou, life has already entered a countdown.

However, she really couldn't bear to tell the other party the final outcome clearly at this moment.

Listening to his voice, it seems that he is not too old.

Even if he slept in the dormant cabin for a long time, the years he had experienced in this world were actually only a few decades.

He deserves to have a better life - not just him, there are many people in the war in adjacent dimensions who deserve to have a better life.

"I see."

"Anyway, let's go check it out first."

"The protection level of the road sign core room is the highest among all road sign centers, especially Shanghai and Rongcheng, which are disaster recovery centers. Each quantum computer has independent armor protection."

"If you want to completely destroy the entangled quantum pairs, you need to do more than just cut off the power supply to the core chamber... The permanent magnet system will maintain the existence of the quantum pairs and wait for the next time the power is restored."

"So, you have to at least destroy the permanent magnet system."

"Can you understand what I mean?"

Of course Ye Zhou understood that, in fact, at the very beginning, the information integrated into the information flow had already allowed him to see the final outcome.

A gorgeous explosion is inevitable.

Of course, he can detonate after being far away from the core chamber, but the violent shock caused by the internal explosion, the large amount of oxygen consumption, the uncontrolled dust and the shock wave, each of which will accelerate the collapse of the already extremely fragile life-support system.

It is very likely that the moment he detonated the explosive was the moment his life came to an end.

But who cares?

He left the archives room resolutely. Outside the core room of the road sign system, he took off all electronic equipment as directed and put on a full set of protective clothing. Then, the communication with Chengdu was cut off, and his ears turned into

There was silence.

Ye Zhou took a deep breath. After passing the identity verification, door No. 1 of the core room slowly opened and then closed after he walked in.

The preparation cabin between Door 1 and Door 2 was quickly evacuated.

Immediately afterwards, door No. 2 opened, and a deep cave was exposed in front of Ye Zhou.

The length of this tunnel is more than five hundred meters.

Yes, although the core room is called a "room", it is actually a huge space hidden at the bottom of the center of the road sign. To enter this space, Ye Zhou must rely entirely on his own physical strength and walk while dragging a heavy protective suit.

Hundreds of meters.

Having just woken up from hibernation, his physical strength was completely unable to keep up. After walking less than a hundred meters, he was already out of breath.

The steaming mist of sweat filled the lenses of the protective suit. He pulled the rope of the exhaust port and manually discharged the exhaust gas into the air storage tank during the break.

This made him feel a little funny. In front of him was the entire human civilization, and even the most advanced equipment in the entire universe that could predict the future, but the equipment he wore was no different from that worn by divers in the 18th century.

The contradictions in technology are so absurd sometimes.

After resting for a while, Ye Zhou continued to trek forward. After half an hour, he finally saw the timeout quantum computer displayed on the ground and shrouded in heavy metal armor.

These computers have sent countless messages to the past and future, but it is very likely that they will all be destroyed soon.

The emergency maintenance console is on the left side of the computing hall. Ye Zhou quickly started the self-test program. In just two minutes, all self-tests were completed.

Apparently, no problems were found.

Later, he followed the previous woman's instructions and checked three major systems one by one that may affect the communication anchor point, only to find that the operating conditions of these three systems could be described as almost perfect.

So, what went wrong?

Ye Zhou slowly squatted down by the wall, constantly recalling the information the woman had mentioned to him in his mind.

The communication anchor points of the road sign system were messed up, and the communication that should have been directed to a fixed time was directed to other nodes.

The signposting system itself works perfectly well.

What caused all this should be the action of external forces.

It happened three hundred years ago, that is, after the disaster.

Rescue cannot be launched because the periphery of Shanghai Center is covered with entropy jump zones.

Ye Zhou suddenly stood up.

He suddenly understood what he should do.
Chapter completed!
