Chapter 387 Experimental Preparation
Chapter 387 Experimental Preparation
The schedule was extremely tight, but there was no delay among countries.
In just a few days, representatives from most countries successfully arrived in the new city.
Ultimately, a total of 23 countries sent representatives to participate in the trip.
After much consideration, the final experimental site was selected in the southern Indian Ocean, about 2,000 kilometers south of the new island.
This location is away from busy shipping lanes and there are no other islands around.
Moreover, it is more than a thousand kilometers away from the nearest inhabited island, so it has a certain degree of security.
There are few people around, so even if an accident does happen, South China will be able to handle it properly.
Just after Wang Ze gave the order, all relevant departments within Nanhua took quick action and devoted themselves to the preparations for this verification test.
The staff of the research institute fixed and packaged the equipment, loaded it onto the airship, and transported it to the target sea area.
At the same time, after receiving the order, the destroyer stationed in Xindao immediately found a cargo ship traveling between Xindao and Nanhua.
The cargo ship will serve as a carrier platform for Ze particle weapon experiments.
In just four days, all the preparations were completed.
The cargo ship in the designated sea area also became a temporary base, and scientific researchers were carrying out final inspection and preparation work on the ship.
On the wide deck of the cargo ship, a huge missile more than ten meters long lay there quietly.
Of course, this so-called "missile" is actually just an empty shell. From the outside, it does look like a missile that can be launched at any time, but in fact, it only has a fixed particle control system and no other accessories.
After all, Nanhua has not yet designed and manufactured the matching missiles.
The reason for choosing to wrap it with a missile shell is to show the people who are coming that this weapon can be carried and launched by a missile.
This was not a request made by Wang Ze, but Frederick's bad taste.
He was very much looking forward to seeing people from other countries getting nervous because of this fake missile.
On the sixth day, military attachés, scientists from various countries and reporters from major newspapers around the world boarded an airship.
These airships set sail from Nanhua Port and headed towards Xindao.
After arriving at the new island, they will stay here for a while and board the cargo ship platform the next day to visit and understand the results of the exhibition up close.
Wang Jixin had originally planned to go to the scene to watch it in person, but was eventually dissuaded by Wang Ze.
According to Frederick and his team's calculations, as long as Wang Ze discovers that energy is still being released violently one minute later, he will use his superpowers to forcibly extinguish the Ze particle reaction.
But the problem was that he could not receive any information from the outside world at the center of the explosion and could only operate according to the prior arrangements.
It would be fine if everything went according to plan, but what if the institute’s calculations were wrong?
What if the changes caused by this particle are faster than expected?
In that case, the visiting team would be in great danger.
For Wang Ze, it was impossible for him to put Wang Jixin in any potential danger.
On the sixth day, Wang Ze also boarded the airship and headed directly to the target location.
At the same time, representatives and journalists from various countries were picked up by a specially modified ship supply airship and headed to the cargo ship blasting platform.
This particular airship was modified at the unloading port to allow personnel and equipment to be unloaded directly onto the ship.
Under the guidance of Nanhua staff, these people arrived at the cargo ship very smoothly.
When personnel from various countries stepped onto the deck, the first thing they noticed was the conspicuous missile on the ship.
"This is the platform for our particle reaction experiment. However, considering safety, this experiment will only be detonated on the spot." The staff member stood next to the missile and explained to the representatives of various countries around him with a serious expression.
As he was explaining, the reporters who accompanied him began to take photos and videos.
After hearing this, experts from all over the world frowned. Among them, an American weapons expert couldn't wait to ask, "What are Ze particles?"
It was not until this moment that these foreign experts gradually learned some basic information about the experiment.
Before this, although they received a thoughtful reception in the new city, whenever they asked about the specific content of the experiment, they always received vague and ignorant answers.
Facing everyone's questions, the staff member still kept smiling and patiently explained: "Ze particles are a type of microscopic particle that was first discovered by the New Town Research Institute."
The American expert retorted somewhat frantically: "Does it make any difference whether you say it or not? You said it is a zeta particle, don't we know it is a kind of particle? Please give us more detailed information!"
But when he asked again, the staff of Nanhua fell silent again and continued to remain ignorant of the sensitive issue.
Experts from various countries felt that there was no difference between coming and not coming, as they could not see anything and had no information.
They just hope that the upcoming experiments will allow them to see something different.
Otherwise, this so-called business trip would probably become a fruitless funded tour.
After a quick tour, these people were assigned to the destroyer.
However, compared to the missile that was about to be tested nearby, this group of people seemed to be more interested in this destroyer.
After all, although Nanhua's destroyers have been in service for many years, other countries' understanding of them is very limited.
Being able to board the ship this time undoubtedly made everyone excited.
So, after getting permission, reporters began to take pictures, and military personnel from various countries also visited the ship accompanied by the South China Navy.
But when they tried to enter the control room, they were intercepted.
Only reporters from South China were allowed inside.
That night, this group of people were arranged to rest overnight on the destroyer.
The destroyer No. 07 also set off quietly under the cover of night and slowly sailed towards the north.
The next morning, when the sun shone across the sea, the destroyer was more than 500 kilometers away from the test site.
According to calculations, this distance is enough for people to feel the impact of the missile explosion without being hurt. It can be said to be a relatively safe range.
People from all countries were shocked and unbelievable to learn that they were in such a remote place.
They couldn't imagine that a small missile would require a safety distance as long as 500 kilometers.
To them, this situation was simply unbelievable.
If the weapons were aimed at European countries, wouldn't one missile be enough to destroy an entire country?
Even a territory as vast as the United States and the Soviet Union could not withstand a few such attacks.
At this moment, experts from various countries no longer expect new knowledge and new discoveries, but instead pray that the experiment will fail. If the experiment succeeds, how can they feel safe?
At the same time, the airship Wang Ze was riding arrived above the cargo ship.
After he got off the airship, the scientific researchers boarded the airship first, and then the base guards began to carry various instruments onto the airship.
Wang Ze sat on a stool, looking at the airship going away.
He will officially start the experiment in three hours. These researchers are the most valuable talents of Nanhua, and they must be ensured to retreat to an absolutely safe distance.
After the airship flew away, Wang Ze felt a little bored, so he walked to the horizontal missile.
He touched it lightly with his hand, then smiled helplessly.
He originally thought it was really a missile, but now he realized it was just a metal shell.
