Everything is for survival.

It is necessary and inevitable to make some sacrifices in order to survive.

Luo Haiyun kept echoing this sentence in his mind. At the same time, he also knew that this was the truth that more than 100,000 engineers, scientists, technical workers, logistics workers, etc. who had entered the Phoenix No. 1 base in advance, and everyone believed in it.

Yes, there are already many people in Phoenix No. 1 base. Luo Haiyun, the base manager, was the last one to arrive.

He walked forward and sketched a strange pattern on the dusty rocks, and saw that the cliff that seemed to be integrated suddenly separated, revealing the small house that seemed like an elevator inside.

He walked in, turned around, facing the outside, and then slowly raised his arms to align with his eyebrows.

Outside the elevator, several soldiers also maintained their salute postures without changing.

The elevator door slowly closed. When a gap was left at the end, Luo Haiyun raised his head and looked at the sky deeply.

At this moment, the sky is blue and cloudless.

He knew that this might be the last time he saw the sky in his life.

The elevator door finally isolated Luo Haiyun from the outside world.

Afterwards, he felt a sense of weightlessness, as if he was declining rapidly.

He knew that this was not an illusion.

The Phoenix 1 base is located thirteen kilometers underground. The mountain height is removed and the altitude is as high as minus 11,206 meters, deeper than the deepest trench on the earth.

It is built on a huge natural underground cave. It has the longest and widest interior, and the highest points are as high as 22,17,0.8 kilometers respectively. Various facilities are complete, enough to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people in it.

Its purpose is to prepare for the response to certain natural disasters that swept the world and continue the use of fire for mankind. Once unexpected happens, such as giant asteroid impacts, solar radiation explosions, gamma ray bursts, etc., people can immediately move to the ground and rely on rock layers more than 10,000 meters thick to provide protection.

The reason why it is named Phoenix is ​​that it means that Phoenix is ​​reborn as a result of its Nirvana.

As for such a giant underground base, the world government has built a total of three on the earth.

But unexpectedly, the natural disaster did not come, and the civilization of the savior came unexpectedly.

But it doesn't matter, these bases are also useful in the face of aliens.

In the elevator, the numbers on the display were jumping rapidly. In just a moment, the numbers were reduced from more than two thousand to more than one thousand, and then they turned into negative numbers.

Luo Haiyun knew that he was already below the altitude at this moment.

The elevator was going down very smoothly. He could not feel any vibration except for the slight sense of weightlessness. However, the outside world was not calm, and he could always hear some howling and sobbing sounds.

He knew that the elevator was built in a natural rock crack. Because it was deep underground, the internal airflow was very calm. The elevator fell down at a high speed, rolled up the airflow, collided with the rock wall, and with the echo, there was such a strange sound.

This is a natural phenomenon. But this still makes Luo Haiyun feel some inexplicable thoughts in his heart.

This is the last time the elevator has been running. After it reaches the deepest point, the last passage will also be blown up. Endless rocks will roll down, completely burying this crack that is more than 10,000 meters deep.

By then, all the hundreds of thousands of engineers, scientists and others who arrived in advance will be closed here.

The contact with the outside world will only leave a computer that is physically isolated from the base. Moreover, this computer can only receive external information, but cannot transmit information to the outside world.

This is the black box plan.

These three huge underground bases will become a black box for the outside world. No one can detect the inside of the black box. No savior civilization can be allowed.

No matter how strong they are or how advanced their technology is, they cannot penetrate the rock formations that are more than 10,000 meters thick to see here.

This is the last trump card of human civilization in order to protect itself.

It took almost ten minutes before the elevator finally stopped. The feeling of weightlessness finally disappeared.

The elevator door opened, and the figures of colleagues who came to greet Luo Haiyun appeared in front of him.

Luo Haiyun did not speak, but stepped out of the elevator. When the elevator door was closed, he gently pressed a button behind him under the gaze of everyone.

In an instant, a huge metal collision and the sound of friction came into people's ears. They were very low, but they had a force that could penetrate people's hearts.

This is to prepare for subsequent impacts to prevent subsequent falls from affecting the internal structure of the base.

When the green light came on, Luo Haiyun took a deep breath.

This elevator, this passage, is currently the only passage connecting Phoenix No. 1 base with the outside world. Once it is destroyed, it will really never be able to get out except for the day of "Nirvana".

I don’t know how many people’s breathing becomes rapid at this moment.

Although I had been mentally prepared, although I had made up my mind, and although I had known that this moment would come, when it really came, I still had some indescribable emotions.

Luo Haiyun shook his head gently and pressed another button. In an instant, people felt that something had seemed to have been lost in their hearts and became empty.

The next moment, a huge and depressing roar came, like a dragon roaring a tiger, like a crack in the earth and collapsed.

The roar lasted for more than ten minutes before disappearing. Luo Haiyun raised his head and a smile appeared on his face: "Comrades, we have no way out."

Yes, there is no way out.

We have no way out, and humanity has no way out.

...

Professor Hu Shiqing committed suicide.

On a quiet night, he returned to his bedroom and never came out again. It was not until the next day that his son forced open the door. At this time, his body was already stiff.

Professor Hu Shiqing is a tenured professor at Luobei University. He has profound attainments in condensed matter physics and can be called Taishan Beidou. What is particularly rare is that he is in his 60s but he has always fought on the front line of scientific research, and his scientific research output is even more than that of some young people who are rising stars.

This is an outstanding scientist who is full of energy and has an unlimited love for science and mankind.

But now, he has become a stiff corpse lying in an ice coffin surrounded by flowers.

After learning the news, Li Cheng, Minister of Science, rushed to the funeral home. Before he arrived, personnel from the public security, military, intelligence and other departments had already arrived here in advance.

Li Cheng had to ignore this matter.

Such an outstanding scientist committed suicide inexplicably at this time, making people wonder what is hidden behind it.

For example...What important discovery did Professor Hu Shiqing make? The savior civilization is afraid of threatening himself, so he simply attacked him in secret?

The so-called suicide is just an open disguise?

With their technical strength, it should not be difficult to forge a seamless suicide scene.

"It's not killing him. It's suicide."

The head of the intelligence department told Li Cheng clearly about this conclusion, but he was still a little unacceptable.

He really couldn't imagine that a person who always had a lot of energy, a happy and harmonious family, and had infinite love for life and career... would commit suicide?

"Is the autopsy?"

The head of the public security department took over the sentence: "There is no autopsy. There is really no need for this."

"The autopsy must be performed! I must conduct a careful and comprehensive investigation, and I cannot let go of any doubt!"

Li Cheng was not their direct superior. But facing a senior official of the world government, although they didn't agree, they had to agree.

"We'll go now."

After several people left, Li Cheng saw Professor Hu Shiqing's son.

His eyes were swollen and his spirits were depressed, and it was obvious that he had not yet come back to his senses from his grief.

"Dad has been a bit abnormal during this period. In the past, although he rarely went home, he was happy every time he came back. Recently, he has been home more often. I asked a few times and he always said that there was nothing wrong in the unit. I felt strange. He used to have a heavy research task, but now why is he suddenly free? I asked again, and he sighed and said I don't understand."

As he spoke, he began to choke again and burst into tears.

The staff began to pack up and prepared to take Professor Hu Shiqing's body for an autopsy. But a group of people surrounded them and stopped their movements.

Li Cheng looked at it and immediately recognized who he was.

Among these people are Zhang Yun from the Institute of Aeronautics and Aerospace, Li Lubai from the Institute of High Energy of Weishan University, etc., all of whom are top scientists in various fields.

"Minister Li, stop tossing." Li Lubai sighed and said, "Let Old Huan leave steadily."

Li Cheng whispered: "Professor Li, this matter is very important, and even the Head of State is paying attention."

An outstanding scientist may be assassinated by the savior's civilization, and it cannot be overestimated no matter how important this matter is.

"Uncle Hu committed suicide, it has nothing to do with others, I can understand him." Zhang Yun, who is about 40 years old, whispered: "What's the point of living? Sometimes I want to die too."

After Zhang Yun said this, the scientific community who came to see Professor Hu Shiqing out of his last journey not only did not persuade him, but instead sighed, as if he agreed with him.

"This is Uncle Hu's suicide note."

A middle-aged man handed Li Cheng a piece of paper sealed in a bag of physical evidence. Li Cheng took it and saw a few big words on it.

"We have no future."

The hook of the last word "典" is a bit crooked and trembling, which can make people intuitively feel the mood of the writer at that time.

Sad, sad, and all thoughts are gone.

Li Cheng's brows slowly frowned, and the wrinkles became deeper and deeper, and they became knots.

"Professor Zhang, Professor Li, Dean Wang...What happened? What was going on?"

These professors who stood at the top of the human civilization and science community sighed and remained silent. In the end, Zhang Yun reluctantly said: "Minister Li, you don't understand, you don't understand."
