15 kms away.
The stage that the steel frame builds stands erect in the white snowfield, seems some are not the divine creative force neat crowded exposed structure of this time, is hanging the wire netting that the crossbeam and steel wire of ice cone, as well as surround in depth likely, not airtight reveals the industrial the aesthetic sense.
Several hundred people gather round busily its on busy, is doing the preparatory work before detonation.
Because entire principle installation weight close ten tons, Hummingbird went to the frontline, therefore is unable to carry on the final assembly in Neverwinter City, can only drag the parts distribution to the test explosion field, the field assembly.
Is good is very simple when its structure itself, in addition design then had considered demand that the resolution ships, the request to the worker is not high.
This is also „the splendor of Sun” and other weapon differences, even if already the prepare the location and equipment, need to spend on 1-2 days of time to complete the final arrangement as before.
This moment Roland and Anna are standing in the tower top, is directing the assembly work of installment.
„Then is No. 3 core part, the attention connection direction, careful clash!”
„All people listen to my password! Third, two and one!”
Along with the worker Captain worker's chant, a silver-white circular cylinder had been thrust in the installment slowly.
Until these step is completed, Roland slowly relaxed.
Column within the body thinks , the main energy of this test explosion originates two subpackages uranium-235 barrels, the monolith quality is 20 kilograms. When both link, will provide 40 kilograms total charge qualities. This value must be lower than 53 kilograms critical limit, theoretically will not have the fierce fission reaction, but before him such that said that critical is not a fixed invariable value.
Shape, temperature, pressure and other conditions may enable this value to change, this also purely depends on pile of materials „nucleus weapon” almost does not have the reason of actual combat value. For example spheroidal state next 52 kilograms uranium-235 seem like can also maintain stable, but that in fact is the volcano that will be ready and soon erupt. Even if a little hits or vibrates, may make it cross critical.
Similarly, with many small uranium slugs, although is safe, but will also make the detonation difficulty increase the instance that doubled and re-doubled, when several uranium slugs are in one, its whole truly can surpass the critical point, the high temperature that but the fission reaction has will make the uranium slug inflate rapidly, reduced its density in disguised form, but the fierce explosion will push to leave to the distant place the raw material, thus makes the response interrupt.
In brief, a reasonable configuration not only need make the uranium element achieve critical, but must maintain at this condition as far as possible for a long time, can play the fission reaction proper might.
Reason that the spear/gun configuration is called spear/gun, lies in its principle and ancient flintlock is quite similar, through the detonation of blasting explosive, a uranium slug pushes to another uranium slug fiercely. Under the huge pressure, the density of uranium slug will increase rapidly, even if the quality is slightly low, can cross the critical point.
The outer covering that after installing was joined, Anna spread the radioactive source warning signal seal to insert the rear connection of reservation one can personally.
That is also the last key component of this test explosion.
Has flash that Roland as if felt that on the face was been same by any, has stopped including the breath half racket.
" Polonium - acupuncture needle neutron source " .
Like the name, it can provide the massive free neutrons for the fission, is the method of most direct reduced marginal value. In the metal container of can, the laying aside has a size and table tennis of evacuation bulbus cordis each spheroid is similar, the core is a moonie polonium ball, and was wrapped solid by the gold foil, but its surroundings is a honeycomb-shaped acupuncture needle piece.
When the uranium slug bumps into , the racket will be breaking to pieces this bottom Xiaoguanzi situated in „barrel”, all hollow balls will be pressed by the violent blasting explosive fuel gas are also thinner than the paper, but after gold foil breakage, the acupuncture needle piece can with the polonium ball intimate post in the same place, overall accept the alpha particle that the latter emits, then the lasing leaves the several fold the neutron.
These neutrons can participate in uranium-235 fission reactions, the luck good words can catch up before the response terminates consumes several tenths raw material, drastically promotes the nucleus weapon might.
As a result of polonium 210 half-lives, only then 138 days, therefore provides the replacement connection is the essential design. Moreover makes the neutron source keep in weapon for a long time is also the extremely dangerous procedure, so long as after all the polonium acupuncture needle contacts can emit the neutron spontaneously, once the gold foil presents the breakage, its consequence is dreadful.
After the polonium acupuncture needle neutron source loads the principle installment, it from thing of the temperate being harmless, turns anytime had the monsters of possibility absorb all people.
Although Roland knows that own feeling is only the misconception, the person impossible catches in the environment the change of neutron quantity, but his breath still subconsciously put lightly.
Arrived this step, principle installment has completed all preparatory work before detonation officially.
Anna has gripped his hand on own initiative.
„Ordered.”
In opposite party gentle calm vision, Roland slight bow.
No matter the result how, splendor of plan Sun has arrived finally this step.
But after these step takes, human will go to a new domain.
He looks to personal guard Sean, „passes on me to order, notice command headquarters, six hours of ignition reciprocal!”
„Compliant, Your Majesty!”
" 6 : 00 "
„wū wū wū wū”
„No. 1 equipment was in the ignition due-out stage, redundant, No. 1 equipment was in the ignition due-out stage, asking in the field the personnel to pack the luggage immediately, leaves the field according to the drilling plan orderly! The attention, this is not the exercise, the test explosion field will close after one hour, all people must remove toward the safety zone before then!”
The quick, scattered circular then together resounds through the audience with alarm sound.
„In a big hurry quick, before everybody arrives at tower , the air-to-surface set, do not lag behind a person!”
„Constructs two teams to count off, one, two and three......”
„Test explosion stage front door blocks!”
„The God Punishment Witches squad whole staff arrive in full, start to lead to evacuate.”
Tranquil snowfield as if boiling gets up, the shout of people complements with the redundant alarm sound repeatedly mutually, the atmosphere becomes is tight and dignified for a while. Everyone clear, they will soon witness an unprecedented experiment.
" 3 : 00 "
In the command headquarters, Roland and Anna pull out two keys, turned on the lap of control bench together.
When switches were pressed down, the green light in floor in turn has also shone.
„Main conducting wire is in the power transmission!”
„The Mystery Moon No. 1 work is normal, in load regulation rise.”
„Now cuts the line one.”
„Understood, the line one has put through, the principle installment power supply is normal!”
The observers are reporting revolution situation of detonation system loudly, when until the last green light shines, means that the electric current through pressure-rise continued repeatedly, conducts stage in 15 kms away.
" 1 : 00 "
Sky over the command headquarters has also sounded the warning, it means detonation procedure only remaining final one hours.
The bunker windows and doors are all closed, the oil lamp also pinches out, avoids causing the accident/surprise because of the vibration.
The Neverwinter high level entered the special observation room, according to the instruction of Roland, its outside set up the surface to be built the trapezoid, by better resistance shock-wave, but internal end had been deepened, under Original Carrier that huge body by accommodation.
Parsha and other Tachira witch waited there for some time.
" 0 : 15 "
The weather faded out.
Last round rapid alarm sound arrives finally.
The high level, soldier or the worker, deferred to developed formerly practice the content to put on the black sunglasses of resistance glare.
Although most people did not understand, why in this dim heavy snow day, but must wear the eyeglasses of this obstructing the view.
This is not looks to disappear.
" 0 : 05 "
„From the bottom time, five minutes!”
When the circular sound resounds once more, the scene became a silence.
All exchanges and discussions stopped, everyone is staring at a jet black front steadily, cannot help but has turned very quiet.
„Three minutes of reciprocal!”
Roland felt that the palm secreted the thin perspiration.
Anna looked at his one eyes with a smile, has held him gently.
„One minute of reciprocal!”
Another side also had a hand to extend, then the five fingers folded.
„Ten seconds of reciprocal!”
„Nine!”
Although has no way to press down the detonation key somewhat to be a pity personally, but Roland knows that the road of this long historical evidence just started.
„Three!”
„Two!”
„One!”
„Detonation!”
The distant place snowfield is quiet, as if anything has not had the time as if to coagulate in this moment, likely was for a long time, likely was only then short flickered.
Afterward the extremely dazzling blue light blooms from the horizon together, has torn in an instant into shreds the present darkness!
