Chapter 157 A perfect experimental project, crisis breaks out!
Before I knew it, it was late at night.

The ancient forest seemed a little eerie in the darkness. The roars of unknown creatures kept ringing through the night sky, startling countless flying birds.

Although it was a little unsafe, Mo Ying and the others couldn't care less.

Yushan Secret Realm is a temporary secret realm, and time is very precious to them.

Huge lighting was set up, and the dazzling light illuminated the entire Hengjing mine as bright as day.

Soldiers armed with live ammunition are constantly patrolling nearby, and the major sentries take turns to shoot and kill any wild beasts that dare to break in.

And professors from various fields of Shenhua University, under Mo Ying's targeted arrangements, led the students to become busy.

Professor Zheng Huaguo, who has roots in the field of physics and mechanics, is responsible for the construction of the alloy support for energy conversion throughout the mine.

Cheng Guoqiang, a computer expert, worked with students including Gu Xiyue to write automatic programs for the mineral energy conversion project in a tense and orderly manner.

Professor Fan Liang of artificial intelligence is assembling dozens of disposable remote-controlled robots with his students, which are also essential items in the Moying project.

……

As for Mo Ying and Qi Sui, they climbed all the way to the top of the vein.

Using local materials, a series of preliminary experiments are carried out, such as selecting the best catalyst and determining the energy conversion process parameters.

Qi Sui kept moving his hands and asked, "Teacher, can our experiment... really work?"

The woman's experimental idea was too far-fetched and he had no idea what it was.

"do not know!"

Mo Ying spoke calmly, her beautiful eyes carefully checking each experimental parameter, and said calmly: "Scientific research experiments are like this, you can never predict the results in advance, it may succeed, or it may fail!"

"Success is great, but failure is not meaningless either. It can help us accumulate experience for our next experiment!"

Qi Sui nodded vigorously and said, "Well, it's better to succeed in one go!"

Then, he smiled and said, "If I succeed, I should be able to publish a lot of papers. Teacher, can you give me a few more first-author papers?"

He is not interested in things like academic reputation. What is important is the professional experience that comes from publishing a paper.

[Scholars] and [Chemical Researchers] are all counting on these things to be upgraded!

"You are so greedy, boy!"

Mo Ying waved her jade hands quickly and recorded another set of experimental data: "Focus first, there is no point in talking about this now, it won't be too late to discuss it after success!"

"Qi Sui, be careful, the reaction will be very violent this time, don't get burned by the high temperature steam!"

"Okay, teacher!"

Qi Sui instantly calmed down, stopped talking, and focused all his attention on the experiment.

……

Work from night to day, and from day to night.

Over thirty hours.

Apart from eating and defecating time, each of Mo Ying and the others only slept for about four hours at most.

Mo Ying, who was originally beautiful and cool, was now disheveled and had a greasy head. She lay in the mud without caring about her image, measuring the alloy bracket with a tape measure.

The clean and brand new sports suit was worn so dirty that it was hard to imagine that this was a young professor from a top university in the country.

"36cm, error within 0.01%, passed!"

Mo Ying stood up from the mud, and without even bothering to tidy up her clothes, she walked deeper into the support to measure the load-bearing point on the other side.

Workaholic!
This was not only Qi Sui's evaluation of her, but also the common thought of everyone present.

In the past two days, many professors and students were tired and slacked off for a while, but Mo Ying was like a tireless working machine.

Not only did he complete a lot of experimental work on his own, but he also took the initiative to help other professor teams.

Work the most and rest the least.

She doesn't treat herself as a woman at all, but more like an animal.

Many professors were moved: No wonder Mo Ying was so young, less than 30 years old, but was awarded the title of professor. He was hailed as the most dazzling new star of the young generation of scientific research in Xia Country. It is impossible not to accept it!
Cheng Guoqiang couldn't help but say, "Teacher Mo, even if young people are energetic, they still have to take care of their health. Take a break. There is still a lot of time!"

"Teacher Cheng, if you feel tired, just go and rest first. Don't worry about me. Finish the work early and start the experiment early. If we fail, we will still have a chance to try it a second time." Mo Ying said without turning her head.

Seeing how hard she worked, the others felt embarrassed to take a break and joined in.

The final finishing touches were quickly completed.

"Very good, very good. We are almost a day ahead of schedule. Thank you all for your hard work!"

Mo Ying was breathing rapidly, and a slightly happy smile finally appeared on her pretty face which had been cold till now.

Qi Sui looked not far away.

The originally bare Hengjing Mine has now undergone a drastic change.

Densely packed alloy supports surround the entire mine, and a layer of translucent special material is affixed to the outside, covering the entire mine upside down.

"Teacher Mo, let's start the experiment!" Cheng Guoqiang's voice trembled a little nervously.

As a giant in the computer field, he has done all kinds of national and world-class scientific research projects.

But when facing this experiment that could change the destiny of a country, I couldn't help but feel nervous, as if I was back in my master's degree days, facing the first time the experimental results were about to be revealed.

Mo Ying took a deep breath, her fingers trembling with nervousness, and she managed to stay calm and said, "The first step is to create a vacuum environment for the mine!"

Boom——

Outside the mine sealing cover, the huge vacuum device started to work, and the pointer on the instrument began to move towards negative pressure at a slow speed.

A few minutes later.

Mo Ying said seriously: "Stop!"

The roar of the machine ended.

Everyone was staring at the pointer on the instrument, and after confirming that there was no sign of retreat, excited cheers suddenly broke out.

“The first step was successful!”

"The mine is still maintained at negative pressure!"

"Great, great, we can now conduct follow-up experiments!"

"Old Zheng, the support and sealing cover built by your team are really amazing. They can seal such a large mineral vein just by saying so. This is really amazing!"

"..."

Everyone had a smile on their face, except Mo Ying who had a cold expression on his face.

She knew very well that this was just the first step in the process.

"Step 2: Spread the Hengjing Conversion Reagent!"

Dozens of remote-controlled robots, in accordance with pre-set programs, spread a large amount of chemical reagents prepared by Qi Sui and his team on the mineral veins in a full-coverage manner.

Repeat this step three times.

Until the external detection equipment lights up green.

This means that the energy sensor buried deep inside the mine has been triggered by the transmutation reagent.

"Very good, the reagent has penetrated completely. According to our estimate, the coverage rate has reached more than 99%!" Qi Sui explained with a smile.

Mo Ying's expression remained grim, and she said calmly, "The third step..."

Every level is difficult, but every level is passed! The further they went, the louder the cheers from the crowd would be. Everyone's heart was in their throat, but Mo Ying did not let them down.

Finally, the first eleven steps of the engineering experiment were all successful!
Unlike the excited atmosphere in the air, Mo Ying's mental stress reached its peak at this moment.

The long hours of high-intensity work caused her to experience slight tinnitus in her ears and a slight feeling of dizziness in her brain. Her legs softened and she couldn't help but stagger back a few steps, eventually bumping into a broad and strong embrace.

"Teacher, come on, we all believe in you!" Qi Sui said seriously.

Mo Ying looked up at the young man's resolute face, as if she had found support. She held Qi Sui's strong waist with her palm to stand firm again, and said loudly: "Step 12, Hengjing Energy Transformation, Start!"

boom--

boom--

Boom boom——

Violent explosions sounded one after another, deep in the mine, and the ground was shaking slightly.

And those remote-controlled robots also reached the final stage, turning into energy boosters and falling into the energy conversion center area, just like adding fuel to the fire. The terrifying high temperature seemed to make the entire Hengjing mine burn.

But because there is no air, it is not true combustion.

Countless constant crystals embedded in the mud and rocky soil showed signs of vaporization.

Will it succeed?

Everyone held their breath and stared intently at every tiny change in the experimental area.

Qi Sui was also very curious whether the experiment would be successful.

Suddenly, a fishy and disgusting smell rushed into my nostrils.

"Ok?"

Qi Sui's heart trembled and he immediately shifted his attention away from the experiment.

When he stepped into the Yushan Secret Realm, he did not smell the fishy odor similar to that in the Qingziling Secret Realm, but instead felt the freshness of forest grass.

It was precisely because of this that this faint smell aroused his vigilance.

"behind?"

Qi Sui suddenly turned his head and shouted a warning: "Everyone be careful, there is something going on in the forest!"

"What's going on? Is there any danger?"

"How could there be any danger here? There are always soldiers patrolling around us!"

"Where is it? Don't push!"

"..."

These scientific researchers, who had never experienced the baptism of blood and fire, were like frightened birds and instantly became frightened and became chaotic.

Only a dozen seconds passed and no unusual movement occurred.

The dense forest around was deathly silent, and the only sound was the rustling of leaves in the wind.

A girl who had recovered from her fear asked with a cold face: "Qi Sui, why are you yelling? The experiment is at a critical step, why are you causing trouble?"

Seeing this, an old professor stepped out to smooth things over, saying with a smile: "Student Qi Sui must be too nervous. This is your first time in the secret realm, right? Relax a little, it's okay. We have a special team patrolling nearby all day. If something happens, they will sound the alarm."

Mo Ying didn't say anything, but looked at him with a slightly puzzled look. There was no doubt in her eyes, she was just waiting for the boy's next explanation.

Among all the people present, only Gu Xiyue acted quickly.

She even used a tactical roll, rushed to the bag as soon as possible, took out a large alloy bow from it, put the arrow on it, entered combat mode, and looked around vigilantly for any movement.

Qi Sui frowned and remained silent, just staring at the darkness of the forest with cold eyes. The muscles all over his body swelled with blood, and the light and shadow of his internal energy flowed rapidly under his skin.

He smelled the fishy smell getting closer and stronger.

At this time, the captain of the patrol team noticed the situation here.

He came over and asked, "Professors and scholars, what happened?"

The female student who first raised the question rushed to describe the situation.

The young captain took a look at Qi Sui's blasting muscles and did not rush to question him. Instead, he asked in a low voice: "Classmate, did you notice anything unusual?"

"Do you think that this forest area is too quiet?" Qi Sui pointed forward and spoke slowly.

Quiet?

Many smart people suddenly changed color.

Yeah, it's so quiet!
It was so quiet that even the usually noisy chirping of insects, birds and animals could no longer be heard.

The young captain's face changed drastically, and he shouted to the communication watch: "Qin Wei, is there any situation over there? Qin Wei, Qin Wei, please reply, please reply!"

Seeing that there was no response, the young captain immediately took down his gun and rushed towards the forest in front: "Everyone, get ready for battle!"

More than twenty soldiers came over at the same time, forming a semicircular battle formation, protecting the teachers and students of Shenhua University behind them.

The atmosphere froze!

The fear of the unknown is spreading in everyone's heart.

Even Mo Ying, who had a strong mental state, had sweat on her palms. The survival instinct in her genes made her subconsciously move towards Qi Sui. It seemed that she could only feel safe when she was with this man.

"Teacher, don't run around, just hide behind me!"

Qi Sui gave an order in a low voice.

He doesn't have that much ability to protect everyone on the field, so he only cares about these two people.

Gu Xiyue has martial arts skills and has a certain ability to protect himself.

But Mo Ying is just an ordinary woman and needs his care even more.

At this moment, a rustling sound suddenly came from the forest, accompanied by a strange squeaking sound. Groups of dark shadows swung their long arms, constantly jumping with the help of branches, and pounced towards them.

Qi Sui's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, and he had already seen the appearance of these things clearly.

They were sturdy monkeys covered with red hair. Their eyes were filled with confusion and bloody madness, and their teeth were extremely sharp.

A rough estimate is that there are hundreds of them.

"shot!"

The young captain gave an order.

Fire burst out from more than twenty guns at the same time. The bullets were made of high-density special alloys. After entering the body, they would cause a second explosion, ensuring that the target would be completely killed.

A dozen monkeys fell to the ground and died.

But more monkeys rushed over like crazy, and the distance between the two sides was less than 20 meters.

Sweat beads appeared on the captain's forehead. He only had time to pull the trigger again to shoot a monkey, but several monkeys pounced on his face, waving their claws and tearing off large pieces of flesh.

"All team, fight to the death! Protect the scientists!"

He let out a shrill roar, pulled out a military dagger from his waist and fought with several monkeys.

Most of the monkeys were blocked by the soldiers, but a small number of them tore through the defenses and pounced on the helpless professors and students.

In an instant, screams and cries broke out.

The crowd is in chaos!
