From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword

The task report of the Hidden Dragon Superpower Special Team's fifth day has been sent back; the Deep Sea Team has already found the seabed crack.

The density of Abyss Demons near the seabed crack has increased, and the Special Forces had an intense battle with them.

There was even a massive Abyss Demon, fifty to sixty meters long, which rammed the escort ship accomplishing the mission, denting it over a large area.

Finally, the Special Forces fought on the sea surface for nearly an hour before killing that large Abyss Demon.

Since the Special Forces found the seabed crack, the Battle Zone Command Center called Lu Heng immediately, hoping he could participate in the combat deployment.

After finding the seabed crack, the next step is to destroy it, but its location is in the deep sea, requiring a comprehensive action plan.

When Lu Heng arrived at the Southern War Zone Command Center, officers and staff at all levels were already discussing the action plan.

Seeing Lu Heng enter, Li Guining waved and had the adjutant add a chair beside him.

After sitting down, Staff Officer Qi Jinhui pushed a laptop to Lu Heng and introduced, "These are the images captured by the Deep Sea Team underwater. Based on the returned data, the crack is located 1200 meters underwater, which is very deep."

Lu Heng watched the footage, and it was similar to what he remembered.

In the footage, the pitch-black seabed was only illuminated by the lighting equipment brought by the Deep Sea Team.

Then, a member of the Deep Sea Team used a lighting skill to light up the surroundings, making the video much clearer.

In the video, a faintly visible two-meter area bubbled continuously.

The bubbles spread upwards, diffusing and making the seawater murky.

As the bubbles gushed out, seawater was being sucked into the crack, making a gurgling sound, as if a giant beast was swallowing the seawater.

The Abyss Rift indeed absorbs seawater while spreading its mist.

Not only seawater, but air can also pass through the crack into the Abyss World.

However, relative to the total amount of seawater and air on Blue Star, the absorption rate of the Abyss Rift is not fast; it would take a very long time to deplete Blue Star's seawater.

So the loss of seawater is not a concern of this era.

The real threat is the mist emanating from the crack, which compresses human living space.

After watching the video, Lu Heng reviewed the report sent back by the Special Forces. The data showed no issues; they just needed to develop an action plan to destroy the crack, and this task would be considered successful.

The participating staff had already proposed several plans and were currently discussing which plan to choose and how to optimize it.

There are usually two methods to destroy an Abyss Rift: one is to use Space Department abilities to close the crack.

For example, Lu Heng's Second Transition Source Ability [Rift Slash] can sever the crack.

However, currently, no one in the Special Forces possesses sufficient space ability to destroy the Abyss Rift, so they must use other methods.

If there is no space ability, the main method is to destroy the crack through blasting.

The explosive power needed to destroy the crack is very high, at least at nuclear bomb level.

Moreover, the required explosive power varies for different media.

Generally speaking, the higher the quality density of the medium, the higher the critical value of the required explosive power.

In a vacuum, since there is no medium, the required critical value of the explosion is the lowest.

And the mass density of water is significantly higher than air, making its required explosive critical value almost the highest among common mediums.

The Great Xia Academy of Sciences has conducted research on the critical value of explosions necessary to destroy cracks and derived critical values for various common media.

However, due to the stringent conditions required for the research, the derived data samples are relatively few.

To achieve the desired blasting effect, it often requires power far above the critical value.

The current plans discussed at the Battle Zone Command Center all involve using nuclear bombs to blow up the Abyss Rift, but which specific blasting plan to use is still under discussion.

Because the medium is seawater and the diameter of this crack exceeds two meters, the calculated nuclear yield is quite large.

Due to the presence of Abyss Demons, the deployment of nuclear bombs needs to be the responsibility of Ocean System Warriors.

And the explosion of the nuclear bomb poses a significant threat to the Ocean System Warriors delivering it.

Now the command center wants to find a method that can ensure the safety of the Ocean Warriors.

After listening to the discussions among the present officers and staff, Lu Heng cleared his throat and said, "I have another plan, please listen."

This sentence quieted everyone present, who looked at him inquisitively.

In fact, Lu Heng could go there now and use Rift Slash to destroy the Abyss Rift.

However, this crack, located on the seabed, has a diameter of over two meters. To completely destroy it is not easy; multiple slashes are required, consuming a massive amount of Source Material Energy.

Moreover, this is the Special Forces' task.

Lu Heng hopes the Special Forces will develop the capability to execute tasks independently, rather than relying on him every time to solve problems.

Besides that, it's also a signal to the military top brass to quickly cultivate superpower soldiers with space abilities.

Thus, Lu Heng intends to offer the Special Forces another solution, so he opened the Special Forces' data, confirmed the combat power data of several key warriors, and then said:

"I've reviewed the abilities of a few Special Forces warriors. Actually, we can change the medium from seawater to air, reducing the required yield to a tenth.

"We can combine Jiang Shaoran's [Wave Summoner] ability with Jian Qing's Wind Control Ability and the abilities of several other team members to create a whirlpool leading straight to the seabed, forming an air environment. Then Chen Zihang can deliver the nuclear bomb to the designated location and detonate it."
