Chapter 581: Disappearing Radiant Energy
At night, the lights are bright, and the light gradually thins out until it is completely hidden in darkness from the large and small islands of the Atlantic Ocean and the ships in navigation to the mountain plains on the west side of New Jersey.
Among them, the light pollution of the Avengers Tower is the most serious, and it can be called the brightest one in the city that never sleeps, like the whole world announcing its existence. However, the interior of the building, especially the Avengers area on the highest floors, is hardly visible, creating the most suitable atmosphere for rest.
Suddenly, Jarvis's built-in program is activated, and the lights in the dark-shrouded Avengers' quarters turn on one after another, illuminating the luxurious décor as the speakers begin to work, calling out to the sleeping Avengers.
The first to open his eyes was Greel, who had extremely keen six senses, and the moment he opened his eyes, his hand touched the switch of the light in the room, turning off the light that had just been on for less than two seconds, and at the same time turned his head to look at Daisy beside him, and found that she was still asleep, so he got up carefully.
While getting dressed, he opened the door and walked out before asking, "Jarvis, what's going on?" ”
"Mr. Rusoff, there has been an urgent notice from the Public Emergency Response Department of the City of Twist requesting the Avengers' assistance in dealing with a nuclear leak." Jarvis's voice rang out in the hallway.
The sleepy-eyed Greer didn't care about the bureaucrats picking out the words "help" to "assist", but grabbed the word "nuclear leakage", suddenly sobered up, and asked a little stunned: "What?" Nuclear leakage? The nuclear power plant exploded? ”
"No, the City of Twist's Public Emergency Services Department claims that there has been a serious explosion and leak at the Osborne Group's fusion laboratory, and that the air samples taken by detectors at the Avengers Tower contain trace amounts of helium, one of the products of nuclear fusion..."
In Jarvis's whispered introduction, Grell also put on his coat and came to the highest point of the Avengers Building, looking at the Midtown circle in the northeast, and saw a dark blue pillar of light soaring into the sky, and the fire light below, as well as fire trucks and ambulances all over the street.
At this moment, the overhead 'whoosh! A metal object with burning feet and palms swept over it, and the whole body was painted in yellow, black, and orange that resembled radiation warning signs, and it was the Mark28 with double anti-radiation armor.
Immediately after, the phone in Greer's pocket rang, and as soon as it was connected, Stark's voice came out of the speaker: "Greer, where are you?" ”
"Roof," Greer said, jumping off the roof, landing steadily on the balcony with a drop of six meters, pushing open the glass door of the balcony and entering the two-story living room as big as playing basketball, in the upper left corner of the laboratory, Stark and Banner with messy hair are busy around the test bench, measuring the intensity of external radiation and the neutron flow and gamma rays that carry high energy, and how to protect and eliminate radiation.
Banner looked at the data on the screen, his brows were almost furrowed, and he said to himself: "It's a bit abnormal, the neutron radiation is too weak, and the gamma energy is almost undetectable." ”
"Isn't it bad to be weak? Better than better. Greer casually continued, nuclear fusion is called clean energy, but compared with nuclear fission, which produces a lot of radiation harmful to the human body, nuclear fusion also produces many kinds of radiation, especially neutron radiation, thermal neutrons, slow neutrons, medium-energy neutrons and fast neutrons, which produce no more harm than nuclear fission.
"If you're too weak, you're going to have a problem." Banner restarted the measurement, saying: "According to the artificial solar output power of the Osborne Group, the deuterium and tritium involved in the fusion reaction are at least more than ten micrograms, and the radiation produced is thousands of times higher than the measured one..."
As Dr. Banner spoke, Jarvis' voice rang out just in time: "Sir, Mark 28 has arrived on the scene and is on the air. ”
Immediately, the glass wall directly south of the laboratory turned into a large screen, showing the picture taken by Mark 28, only to see the corner of the laboratory with the logo of the Osborne Group collapsed, and the flames and smoke poured out of the gap, and the water sprayed by the fire truck on the scene was better than nothing in the face of such a large fire.
"How is that possible?" Once again, Dr. Banner was shocked that the analysis of samples collected by Mark28 showed that the radiation and fugitive energy near the Osborne Group laboratory was only slightly higher than that of the Avengers Tower.
In this way, there is only one possibility, the artificial solar device has not been damaged too much, and the fusion reaction products are still firmly 'trapped' inside, and it is clear that there is no nuclear leakage in the Osborne Group, but the laboratory is on fire.
Mark 28 circled around the burning laboratory several times, and even ventured close to the laboratory, collecting hundreds of samples, all of which showed that there was no strong radiation, which was completely within the tolerance range of the human body, and it seemed that it was just a fire, not a very dangerous nuclear leakage accident.
Stark said dissatisfiedly, "Isn't there any other smart person in the whole twist?" Zhengxiang, who slept in the middle of the night, was woken up, how could he be in a good mood, and what he was asked to deal with urgently was an oolong, which made Stark extremely despise the people in the emergency response department of Twist City, a group of guys who were vegetarian in the corpse position, shouting about the nuclear leak without understanding anything, and making a fuss.
"Doctor, Mr. Stark, you two go ahead and rest, I'll go put out the fire." As he spoke, Grell pulled up his scarf to cover most of his face, and then put on the hood of his magic suit, and then opened the door of the space with the hanging ring, and stepped out in one step, and came to the top of the fire.
The sudden appearance of the luminous ring was exceptionally bright in the night sky, making it impossible to ignore its existence, and several people from the command headquarters of the firefighting at the scene ran out, looked at the luminous ring with binoculars, and saw a person in a 'fancy costume' walking out of it.
"It's the Avengers." The captain of the fire brigade excitedly shouted into the walkie-talkie, "The Avengers are coming." ”
All the firefighters, policemen, and medical personnel who received the news all looked up at the sky and saw a spectacle that people will remember for a lifetime: in the pitch-black sky, there was a blue double circle composed of a diameter of thirty or forty meters, and inside were six luminous objects of general thickness, forming a six-pointed star pattern, and countless unknown symbols and graphics were scattered among them, forming an incomparably complex but beautiful water magic array.
“WATER!” Greel, who was floating in the air with a wind-based magic array, flickered his wrist, and the huge blue magic array flashed, and then poured countless coin-sized droplets of water into the fire, instantly suppressing the raging flames.
The people near the fire all stood motionless, maintaining a posture of looking up at the sky, staring blankly at the magic array of water spraying, and pinching themselves to verify whether they were in a dream.
