Build a game empire from scratch - Chapter 1275

“You mean…an unprecedented large-scale aurora occurred in northwest Daxia?”
Because of the time difference, it’s still broad daylight in America late at night in the summer.
In the office, an old professor with a gray beard asked in a subtle tone while holding the report sent by the students.
“Um…that’s what the data shows…right?” The student standing in front of him was a little afraid to look at the teacher’s expression.
“Think again.” The professor hated iron, but he still gave the student a second chance.
“This…” the student became even more nervous, “tornado?”
The professor was so angry that he blew his beard, “Why did I accept a student like you? What kind of tornado can affect half of East Asia?!”
The student blinked, “Super giant tornado?”
“Dong dong dong!!” The professor could no longer control his expression and knocked on the table angrily, “Do you think it’s possible?!!!”
“I don’t think it’s possible, but the data…” The student was submissive.
“Have you never thought that it might be radar interference?!” The professor finally gave up on testing the students.
“Interference?” The student looked suspicious, “Such a large scale? Impossible, right?”
“So, you think large-scale radar interference is impossible, but auroras and tornadoes of the same size are possible?”
“Um…can’t you?”
“Get out of here!!!”
Seeing the professor getting angry, the student quickly bowed his head and apologized, then turned around and ran away.
But as soon as he turned around, there was a knock on the office door.
He looked at the teacher and opened the door after the teacher nodded.
Outside the door was a man in a suit and two government workers in military uniforms, “Hello, we are looking for Professor Elena Cornell.”
While they were talking, they had already seen the professor, and when they got closer, they could see clearly the information in the professor’s hand.
“Hello, professor, it seems that you should know the reason for our visit.” The man in the suit said.
The old professor nodded, but did not give them the answer they wanted, “I know why you came, but this kind of data… It is indeed the first time in my life that I have seen…”
At this point, he suddenly stopped and looked at his student: “You go do your own thing first.”
Obviously, he doesn’t want his student to be involved in government affairs, especially when he can’t judge the seriousness of the matter and the student is obviously not very smart…
The young student left the office obediently, and the last words he heard before walking away were——
“Do you think it’s possible that… Daxia is testing some kind of special weapon? Especially… a weather weapon?”
Then the sound became lower and lower until it was inaudible.
…
This situation is not isolated, but occurs in top universities around the world.
Even in Daxia, this incident was a sensation—the only difference was that no government officials came to the door.
This is also something that can’t be helped.
Meteorological observation data has been open and shared globally since a long time ago. Its main function is to monitor global weather changes and conduct coordinated weather forecasting and meteorological research. There is no need to hide it.
Not to mention the world’s major meteorological laboratories and top meteorological universities, even ordinary people can see it through weather radar echo maps.
It’s just that most people won’t bother to look at this. They lack professional tools and cannot receive early warnings or perform analysis.
Therefore, such a large-scale radar anomaly cannot be covered up at all!

He Peng received the call and was so flustered when he got up from bed late at night!
It wasn’t like he hadn’t thought about the possibility of accidents in Lin You’s research – he had expected it since Lin You asked the place to be as remote as possible and all participants in the experiment to use robots.
But the most serious problem on his mind was a big explosion destroying a large laboratory.
Although this price is extremely high, if it is an experiment of the level of [Positron Reactor], the price is not unbearable.
But even if it was a laboratory explosion, it couldn’t possibly cause such a big noise, right?
Don’t let anything really go wrong that is irreversible!
He quickly dialed Lin You’s number, and the call was immediately connected.
“Hello? What’s wrong? I called you in the middle of the night. What’s the matter?” Lin You’s voice was very calm.
“What’s the matter?” He Peng’s heart immediately became restless after he had just settled down, “You have done such a big thing, and you still ask me what’s the matter?”
“Big deal?” Lin You’s voice was a little confused, “What big deal?”
“Nothing happened in the laboratory?” Lin You’s voice was so normal that He Peng couldn’t help but wonder if there was any misunderstanding.
But the next moment Lin You replied: “Yes.”
His voice was still calm, but what he said made He Peng unable to calm down: “The strong magnetic confinement field was broken down, and a micro gamma ray burst occurred, but the problem is not serious.”
“What did you say?!” He Peng’s voice and pupils instantly dilated, “Gamma ray burst?! Isn’t that an astronomical disaster? Do you call this a big problem?!”
“Micro! Micro!” Lin You emphasized repeatedly.
“Micro can interfere with the weather radar in half of the summer? Do I look so easy to deceive?”
“Radar?” Lin You’s voice paused, “It’s not a big problem! Look, the nearest county has not been affected in any way. Doesn’t this mean it’s not a big problem?”
Lin You’s words made He Peng calm down a little.
It seems…that’s really the case?
If only the radar captures the signal, although the range is very wide and exaggerated, the impact will be on public opinion, and the actual impact will not be large – at most it will affect the accuracy of weather forecasts for a short period of time.
“Okay, please give me a thorough explanation – considering the worst-case scenario, how much damage will your experiment cause?”
“Don’t worry, I’m very careful. At most, one-fifth of the equipment in the core test area will be damaged, and one-third of the accuracy will be damaged and need to be repaired – I have to reiterate again, the possibility of this is very low!”
“Huh, that’s good.” He Peng breathed a sigh of relief and even cared about Lin You’s health. “You should go to bed early and don’t stay up late working. Your health is important.”
After hanging up the phone, he started making urgent calls to organize a meeting, trying to find a way to make up a suitable excuse for Lin You’s “experimental accident”.
Three hours later, the reason was compiled—testing of new nuclear fusion technology routes.
Believe it or not, that’s your business. Anyway, at the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs after dawn, you just need to ask, and I will say this, believe it or not!
He Peng rubbed his red eyes and planned to take a nap and rest.
But as soon as he lay down and before he closed his eyes, his phone rang again.
——Just two minutes ago, a second large-scale weather radar interference broke out at the same location.
What’s even more troublesome is: after three hours of preparation, this big news has been published in the newspapers and made the front pages of many overseas media.
The radar interference map they processed was like a huge red-green disk covering the light-colored map of Daxia, covering most of Daxia in one breath.
The titles are also more sensational than the last——
[shock! A large-scale electromagnetic signal interference broke out in northwest Daxia, suspected of testing a new type of weapon of large-scale destruction! ]
[Professor Cornell: An unprecedented phenomenon! Do not rule out the possibility of large-scale weather weapons! ]
[Super Aurora in East Asia? Or a super bomb in the hands of a big country? ]
[The area of influence covers three thousand kilometers! A world-destroying weapon more powerful than nuclear weapons? ]
[Once again, a discontinuous new technology experiment without any foreshadowing! Has genius scientist Lin You started making weapons? ]
…
The radar interference picture looked so amazing that the propagation efficiency was also horribly high. By the time it dawned here in Daxia, the picture had already spread all over the world.
Coupled with the second outbreak in a very short period of time, the previous reasons no longer apply.
What’s even more outrageous is: Lin You actually took some time off from his busy schedule and posted a post in response——
