Chapter 1251. The Book at Night (39)

"Ugh... pressing any of the three buttons individually doesn't work!" Xiao Qin rubbed her forehead. "I can't fix this, you guys need to figure it out."

Quan Quan squatted down beside the track, his fingers tracing the "S"-shaped outline of the track, when suddenly his eyes lit up.

"Look, the track's slope is steep at first and then gentler. The first groove is at the end of the steep slope, and the second is in the middle of the gentle slope. Perhaps... we can press the buttons in combination and use inertia to make the ball 'step over' the groove."
"First press 'G=1' to give the ball enough speed on the steep slope. When it is almost at the first groove, press 'G=0' immediately."
In a weightless state, the ball will float forward due to inertia. After passing the groove, press 'G=1' to make it fall back onto the track.
Before reaching the second groove, press 'G=-1' to let it float gently upwards, just over the groove, and finally press 'G=1' to let it roll to the finish line!

"You have to time it perfectly!"

"Still no cell phone signal?"

"It's okay, I can time it," Chu Xue said, taking out her phone.

"Xia Jin is in charge of pressing the button, keeping a close eye on the ball's position and calling out commands, while Chu Xue records the error of each attempt," Ouyang Xichen said.

第一次尝试,夏瑾按“G=1”后,全全喊“3、2、1——换0!”

Xia Jin was half a second too slow, and the ball still got stuck in the first groove.

“I’ll give the commands,” Bai Yueming said.

However, Bai Yueming's voice was more urgent than Quan Quan's. Xia Jin pressed the button in time, but the ball floated too high, hit the side of the track, and rolled off the track.

“Let me do it!” Quan Quan said to Bai Yueming. “You’re too impatient.”

"Let me press the button!" Lin Xi said with a smile, seeing that Xia Jin was a little nervous.

Xia Jin let out a long sigh and gestured for Lin Xi to come over to her.

“1!” Quan Quan exclaimed.

Lin Xi quickly pressed the button.

The ball rolled down, and the shadow on the steep slope grew longer and longer.

"0!"

Lin Xi pressed down quickly with her fingertips, and the ball indeed floated up due to inertia, just passing the first groove.

"1!"

The ball falls back onto the track and continues rolling forward until it reaches the second groove.

"-1!"

At the moment the anti-gravity activation occurred, the ball seemed to be lifted slightly and gently floated over the groove.

"1!

The silver ball hit the red sensor at the finish line with a "thud," emitting a long "beep."

Lin Xi's tense nerves finally relaxed.

—A truly perfect teamwork.

—At this moment, I'm shipping 123 and Quan Quan, no one will object, right?
—I was so engrossed in watching that I didn't dare breathe, and yet some people were actually shipping couples.

—Don't leave if you're into shipping couples, tell me later how you developed that mindset.

The ground beneath the tracks cracked open, and a circular elevator slowly rose up.

When the elevator doors opened, a small robot about half a meter tall stood inside.

Its body was made of silver gears, and the antenna on its head swayed, emitting a crisp electronic sound.

"Congratulations on passing the physics test! The circuit on the third floor is broken; you'll need to help fix it before you can go up."

It held up the circuit board on its chest, which had several obvious cracks.

"This is a special circuit board for the biological zone; the break is related to DNA!"

—Holy shit!
Holy crap!
—Does this crappy game really think players know everything?

—Vegetables, you absolutely must find the designer and give him a good beating. —Make me a meal too.

Everyone stepped into the elevator.

The little robot stood in the middle, showing no intention of making way for anyone.

Once everyone was in position, the elevator slowly started moving.

As the elevator ascended to between the second and third floors, the surrounding walls suddenly became transparent.

You can see the cell model floating outside.

Red blood cells and white blood cells slowly floated outside the glass, as if they were inside a human blood vessel.

The elevator quickly reached the third floor, and the moment the doors opened, a faint, sweet smell, similar to agar culture medium, wafted out.

On the third floor, in the biology area, the ceiling is adorned with a spiral-shaped DNA model chandelier, the floor is covered with a translucent floor simulating a cell membrane, and a broken blue light chain floats in the center of the room.

It should be the DNA strand the robot was talking about, with four flashing bases visible at the break: A (adenine), T (thymine), C (cytosine), and G (guanine).

The display screen next to it was lit up, and green text scrolled: "The base pairing rule of DNA is that A and T are complementary, and C and G are complementary. By inserting the correct bases into the break point, a complete double strand is formed, which can then be used to activate the elevator."

Below the display screen are four movable base modules, each connected to a wire.

"I know this!" Wenya's eyes lit up. "DNA is a double helix, with the two strands connected by hydrogen bonds between the bases. A can only pair with T, and C can only pair with G. The order absolutely cannot be wrong! You see, the break on the left is A and C, and the break on the right should be connected to T and G!"

Xia Jin picked up module A and was about to connect it to the break point when Wen Ya stopped her.

"Wait, the module's orientation needs to be correct!"

She pointed to the small arrow on the module.

"DNA strands have a direction, from the 5' end to the 3' end. Only the A strand pointing to the right can pair with the T strand on the left. If it's reversed, the hydrogen bonds won't form."

As she spoke, she adjusted the direction of module A, aligning the arrow with the broken T. With a "click," A and T successfully connected, and a pale blue light illuminated the connection point.

Next was module C. Wenya had Xia Jin hold the module while she watched the break point and slowly approached G. With a "click," C and G were connected.

The blue light chain instantly became complete, and the spiral chandelier began to rotate, emitting a "beep beep" notification sound.

The robot's antenna swayed even more wildly.

"Great! The circuit is working! The elevator can go to the top floor, find the runaway chaotic creation, and build the Tower of Science!"

Top floor.

The moment the elevator doors opened, a gust of biting cold wind rushed in.

The ceiling on the top floor is transparent, allowing you to see the swirling nebula outside.

In the center of the room, a three-meter-tall monster was floating.

Its body sometimes turns into a transparent mass of water, sometimes condenses into a gray stone, and sometimes burns into an orange-red flame.

The various fragments on his body kept falling off and reforming.

“This should be the creation of chaos,” Bai said.

"How do I fight this thing?" Orange flames ignited in Bai Yueming's palm, but he dared not step forward rashly.

"Don't think about fighting yet, let's look for clues!" Lin Xi said.

Chu Xue noticed a telescope on the right and walked over to it.

As soon as my hand touched the telescope, I saw a line of text appear above it.

"The essence of chaotic creation is the imbalance of elements. Each form corresponds to a certain element, which needs to be neutralized with the opposite element. Hitting the weakness will weaken it."

Chu Xue looked down and saw an element emitter on the experimental platform below the telescope, with buttons labeled "Fire," "Water," "Ice," and "Stone" next to it.
