I accidentally got a two-way foil in my second level civilization

In the capital of Xia Country.

Inside a small villa.

A man dressed in high - end brand - name clothes, with a pair of non - prescription glasses on the bridge of his nose, was intently staring at the computer screen in front of him.

The screen showed an author's backstage.

On the home page of the author's backstage, an article had received countless likes and comments.

As the camera zoomed in, the title of the article gradually became clear. It was赫然 the article published on Zhihu criticizing Sandaokou University!

Looking at the steadily increasing number of likes and comments, a cold smile appeared on the man's lips.

This article should bring him quite a bit of profit.

Thinking this way, he pressed the F5 key on the keyboard.

The web page refreshed.

The article that should have been on the home page turned gray.

"What's going on?!"

The man suddenly stood up from his chair, his face changing rapidly.

A bad guess slowly emerged in his mind.

He moved the mouse, placed the cursor on the grayed - out article title, and clicked the left mouse button gently.

"Hello, Deng Haochu. This article of yours is suspected of..."

In simple terms, it was 404'd.

Looking at the line of dark red Chinese characters in front of him, Deng Haochu's face instantly changed.

Damn it!

He quickly dragged the mouse and switched the web page to the income interface.

A big zero greeted his eyes.

"Bang!"

Deng Haochu raised his hand and slapped the computer desk in front of him, causing the computer screen to tremble.

"Damn Sandaokou University..."

Deng Haochu knew in his heart that this kind of thing could only be the work of someone from Sandaokou University!

"This isn't over!"

A cold glint flashed in Deng Haochu's eyes.

Thinking of the hundreds of thousands or even millions of income that had disappeared out of thin air, a look of pain flashed across Deng Haochu's face.

...

A week later.

As this article was deleted and blocked across the entire network, the negative public opinion it had originally caused gradually disappeared.

And at this time, Sandaokou University entered a state of martial law again.

The reason was simple.

The second controlled nuclear fusion experiment was about to be carried out in the nuclear physics laboratory on the campus of Sandaokou University!

...

In the library of Sandaokou University.

Su Yutong frowned and raised her head from the exercise book in front of her. She subconsciously looked at the seat beside her.

As usual, it was empty.

She closed her eyes slightly and let out a deep sigh.

Ever since she met Lü Yongchang last time, she had been like a possessed person, coming to the library at the same time every day, hoping for another "chance encounter".

However, after more than ten consecutive days of disappointment, her slightly restless heart gradually calmed down.

Perhaps that "graduate student senior" only came to the library occasionally.

"Yutong!"

Just as Su Yutong was lost in thought, a clear shout came from the side.

Su Yutong's body trembled slightly, and she quickly turned her head to look.

Seeing the person coming, her tense body relaxed a little. "Chen Yun? Why are you here?"

Chen Yun gave Su Yutong an annoyed look and said loudly, "What? Am I not allowed to come?

"I don't know what got into you. You sit in this small corner of the library every day... Could it be that you're waiting for someone?"

Caught off - guard, a flash of panic appeared in Su Yutong's eyes. "You, you're talking nonsense!"

"This is the library. Keep your voice down!"

Chen Yun gave Su Yutong another annoyed look. "Keep my voice down? Why don't you look around to see if there's anyone else?"

Su Yutong was slightly taken aback and quickly stood up to look around.

The huge library was empty.

"This... What's going on?"

Chen Yun let out a deep sigh, a look of helplessness in her eyes. "My dear young lady, didn't you read the school announcement yesterday?"

Su Yutong shook her head blankly.

Chen Yun took a step forward and grabbed Su Yutong's right hand. "Come on, come back to the dormitory with me quickly!"

"The school issued an announcement last night, asking all students not to leave the dormitory unless necessary!"

"I really don't know how you got out today...

"If I didn't know you come to the library every day, I wouldn't know where to find you!"

A look of increasing confusion appeared in Su Yutong's eyes. "This... Why?"

Chen Yun dragged Su Yutong towards the dormitory. "Why? Are you pretending to be stupid or do you really not know? The nuclear physics laboratory of our school is going to conduct the second controlled nuclear fusion experiment today!"

...

Inside the nuclear physics laboratory.

Lü Yongchang looked solemnly at the stellarator device in front of him, which resembled a messy ball of wool.

"Let's get started!"

Lü Yongchang didn't waste any words and directly said to Fang Xu beside him.

Fang Xu nodded slightly and turned to give orders to the researchers beside him.

It was the familiar process again.

After the switch was turned on, with a humming sound, an extremely powerful current passed through the superconducting coils, forming a closed, twisted ring - shaped magnetic cage inside the cavity of the stellarator.

During the idle time while the heating device was pre - heating, Fang Xu asked Lü Yongchang nervously, "Yongchang, how long do you think we can extend the maintenance time of controlled nuclear fusion in this experiment?"

Hearing this question, Lü Yongchang gave Fang Xu a strange look.

What did he mean by how long it could be extended?

In Lü Yongchang's opinion, at this time, except for not being connected to a generator, the basic structure of the stellarator was not much different from the large - scale fusion reactors of later generations.

At least, all the necessary parts were there.

"Brother Xu, I think this question depends on how long you want to maintain it."

Fang Xu's pupils suddenly shrank.

What did this mean...

Before he could think it through, a researcher beside him shouted loudly, "Professor Lü, the pre - heating work is completed!"

There was no time to explain it to Fang Xu in detail. Lü Yongchang directly said in a deep voice, "Inject deuterium - tritium gas!"

"Prepare for ignition!"

The moment the deuterium - tritium gas turned into a high - temperature plasma in the cavity of the stellarator, a laser instantly shone on the surface of the deuterium - tritium plasma!

In just a few seconds, the fire of fusion was ignited again.

"Large amounts of neutrons detected!"

"The nuclear fusion reaction is occurring normally!"

One report after another came.

Lü Yongchang's face was a bit solemn.

"Closely monitor the remaining amount of deuterium - tritium material. Add it immediately if it's insufficient!"

Unlike the last experiment, this time Lü Yongchang's goal was to maintain controlled nuclear fusion for a long time.

Therefore, it absolutely couldn't be like the last experiment, where the fuel burned out after the fusion reaction occurred for a while.

"How's the heat dissipation?"

Lü Yongchang asked in a deep voice.

The researcher in charge of monitoring the temperature immediately replied, "The heat - dissipation system is working well! The surface temperature of the stellarator is 25 degrees Celsius!"

Five minutes...

Ten minutes...

Twenty - seven minutes!

When they saw that the duration of the nuclear fusion reaction exceeded ITER's record of 26 minutes, Fang Xu's face was filled with excitement and nervousness.

Naturally, he was excited that they had set a new record.

The nervousness... came from thinking about the 30 - minute threshold of the Tokamak device that Lü Yongchang had mentioned before.

Time passed minute by minute.

The 30 - minute threshold passed with Lü Yongchang's expressionless face.

He looked up at the time and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. "Thirty - five minutes. That's about it. Prepare to stop!"

Under the orderly operation of the researchers, the heating system gradually stopped, and the current passing through the superconducting coils also gradually weakened.

Finally, the flame of nuclear fusion slowly went out in the stellarator.
