Chapter 510 Facing the Sun!
Nie Qingcheng took the cushion away, leaned her shoulder against his, and pressed her cheek against the outside of his upper arm, saying, "It's eleven o'clock, let's go."
The two stood up, turned off the lights, and went into the bedroom. Zhang Yan changed his clothes and lay down. Nie Qingcheng turned to her side next to him and put her right hand on his arm.
"I won't take you to the launch site tomorrow. Guan Xing will wait for your data in the ground control room, Qin Xiao will be on standby on the perimeter, and I'll stay at home."
"it is good."
"Contact me again when communication is restored."
Nie Qingcheng pinched his arm with her fingers, urging him to go to sleep.
Zhang Yan closed his eyes, slowed his breathing, and completely relaxed his body.
After confirming that his breathing rhythm was stable, Nie Qingcheng quietly sat up, picked up the data terminal on the bedside table, and blocked most of the light from the screen with her palm, leaving only a sliver to illuminate the text.
Complete parameter table of the solar core environment: 15 million degrees Celsius, core pressure 250 billion atmospheres, probability of magnetic field disturbance chromosphere 12%, troposphere 37%, radiative zone 64%, core region unknown.
The force field has a duration of 53 seconds, an effective operating time of 35 seconds, and can maintain the chaotic coating at a thermal limit of 2800 million degrees for 15 seconds. The escape velocity must complete the channel locking within 0.7 seconds.
She looked at each item one by one, and when she saw that the column for the probability of magnetic field disturbance in the core area showed no data and was unknown, her thumb paused on the screen, and then she continued to scroll down.
It took her an hour and a half to review all the data. As the horizon outside the window began to turn gray, she turned off the screen, put the terminal back on the bedside table, lay down again, and placed her right hand on his arm.
Zhang Yan rolled over and unconsciously wrapped her hand in his palm.
At 6:03 a.m., at the top-secret launch site in Jinghai.
The Chaos Mech stood on the catapult track. Its dark gray high-dimensional coating did not reflect light in the morning light, and its matte surface absorbed all the light.
Zhang Yan climbed into the cockpit via the ground maintenance ladder. The air circulation system inside the cockpit had already been preheated, and the temperature was constant at 24 degrees Celsius. He sat in the main seat, the safety lock engaged, and the system panel lit up one by one.
The four spirits are all in a green state, the Heavenly Craftsmanship Heart is 100% complete, the energy reserve is 91.2%, the high-dimensional coating is 100% complete, and the passive high-dimensional frequency perception has been activated with a radius of 50 kilometers.
The communication channel is open, and the observatory reports to the ground control room that the data link has been established, the quantum entanglement channel pre-connection is complete, and the signal strength is at full strength.
Qin Xiao reported that all personnel on standby outside the perimeter were in position, the wind direction was normal, and the ejection window was open.
Zhang Yan's hand rested on the joystick. He did not contact Nie Qingcheng; they had agreed last night to contact her again when communications were restored.
"take off."
The electromagnetic acceleration rings on the launch track were activated in sequence, and the Chaos Mech was pushed into the seat back by the thrust, its speed climbing to the first cosmic velocity. The mech then detached from the track and rushed into the dawn.
The outline of Jinghai rapidly shrank below, the coastline becoming a curved, light-colored edge. Chaos broke through the atmosphere, the blue disappeared, and in its place was a black vacuum and distant starlight.
Zhang Yan switched the thrusters to the highest cruising speed, the mecha accelerated, and the Earth behind them turned into a blue and white sphere.
Flight path locked, estimated arrival time at the outer edge of the sun's core is 12 hours and 17 minutes. Stargazing confirmation received.
Zhang Yan leaned back in his chair, handed the mecha over to autopilot, and saw the sun at the twelve o'clock position in his field of vision, a bright white dot.
Twelve hours later, it will turn into a white sea of fire that will engulf the entire field of vision.
Six hours later, the sun had transformed from a point of light into a disk the size of a coin.
The chaotic temperature sensor began to react, and the outer shell temperature slowly climbed from -270 degrees Celsius of the cosmic background radiation. The surface of the high-dimensional coating did not change at all; this temperature was not even a warm-up for it.
Zhang Yan took over control from the automatic cruise and manually fine-tuned the course to ensure that the diving angle was aligned with the sun's north pole.
Ten hours later, the sun occupied one-third of the field of vision, the outer shell temperature rose to 300 degrees Celsius, and the coating began to emit a very faint dark red glow, which was the coating passively dissipating heat.
The temperature sensor readings jumped faster and faster, from 500 to 800 to 1200, but the chaotic internal cabin temperature remained unchanged, indicating that the insulation layer between the coating and the outer frame was functioning properly.
The satellite observation team reported that the quantum entanglement channel signal was stable and the ground data link was normal, located 150,000 kilometers from the surface of the sun. They also informed Nie Qingcheng that they were monitoring the location data.
Zhang Yan didn't reply, his gaze fixed ahead.
Eleven hours and forty minutes later, the sun filled the entire field of vision ahead, and white light poured in from all directions. The optical filter in the cockpit automatically turned up to the highest level, compressing the external scene into the visible range.
The outer shell has a temperature of 5,600 degrees Celsius, and the coating glow changes from dark red to orange-yellow, at a distance of 100,000 kilometers from the surface of the sun.
Zhang Yan's hand landed on the activation button of the Heavenly Craftsmanship Heart, initiating the force field test.
The energy of the Heavenly Craftsmanship surged from the chest, spreading along the conduits inside the mech to the outer edge of the coating, forming a spherical region with a diameter of thirty meters around the chaos.
The temperature inside the spherical region dropped instantly and eventually stabilized at 32 degrees Celsius. The energy consumption was 0.7% per second, which was exactly in line with the calculation.
Zhang Yan maintained the force field for five seconds and then shut it off. The temperature of the outer shell rose again, and the coating withstood the heat impact without any abnormalities.
After confirming that the ground data link delay was within acceptable limits, Zhang Yan gripped the control stick again and began the descent.
The chaotic thrusters reversed direction, and the mech plunged headfirst into the surface of the sun, entering the chromosphere.
The temperature jumps from 6,000 degrees to 20,000 degrees. Conventional communication is completely cut off here. Electromagnetic signals are completely absorbed by the high-temperature plasma. The quantum entanglement channel is unaffected, and the data link remains connected.
It took forty seconds for the chaos to pass through the chromosphere. The coating temperature continued to rise, the orange-yellow glow turned white, and then it entered the troposphere.
The matter here is a surging plasma flow, with a density two orders of magnitude higher than that of the chromosphere. The chaotic coating begins to bear physical pressure, and the stress data of the outer frame rises rapidly, up to seventy megapascals.
The material in the troposphere is churning violently, with upwelling, downwelling, and lateral shearing. Chaos within it is like a pebble being swept away by a giant wave.
Zhang Yan gripped the control sticks with both hands, and the Thousand Arms extended simultaneously. Six mechanical fingers were embedded in the auxiliary control interface on the bulkhead, and twelve control points worked at the same time, correcting the mech's posture frame by frame in the plasma turbulence.
As it passes through the troposphere and enters the radiation zone, the temperature jumps to seven million degrees, the glow on the coating surface disappears, the temperature is so high that it exceeds the visible light range, and the radiation enters the X-ray band.
The coating surface appeared pure black to the naked eye, but the casing temperature on the data panel reached 7.2 million degrees Celsius.
The matter in the radiation zone transfers energy in the form of radiation, greatly reducing physical impact, but the radiation intensity is extremely high. The Heavenly Craftsmanship automatically shields the gamma rays that penetrate the mech, consuming 0.02% per second.
Zhang Yan relaxed his fingers, allowing the automatic cruise control to take over the straight descent phase.
A system panel pops up a notification that we are about to enter the core region of the sun, with an external temperature of 1500 million degrees and an external pressure of 2500 billion atmospheres.
Zhang Yan took back control, and the passive high-dimensional frequency perception lit up, with high-dimensional frequency information from within a 50-kilometer range flooding into the system panel.
Within the range of perception, the energy of the sun's core appears as uniform white noise, except for one point: 312 kilometers directly in front and slightly north, there is an extremely weak artificial energy signal that is completely in sync with the core of the sun.
Frequency matching is 100%, but signal strength is extremely low.
It beats quietly deep within the core of a star at 15 million degrees Celsius.
Zhang Yan stared at the coordinates of the signal. It wasn't the location of the star's core crystallization. The crystallization's coordinates were 300 kilometers to the north, while this signal was 312 kilometers away, a distance of 12 kilometers between them.
This is a man-made structure left by the first generation of maintainers, a last resort; it is deeper than the crystallized material.
Zhang Yan shifted his gaze away from the signal coordinates and decided to take the condensed crystal first.
The Chaos's thrusters ignited at full power, and the mech hurtled toward the heart of the sun.
