Videos and photos posted by netizens show that the area was indeed as hot as an oven!

The internet is now buzzing with rumors that a sun is hidden inside Haichuan University, causing abnormal weather within a ten-kilometer radius.

The news was brought back by netizens who personally went on the "exploration".

They were originally wearing long-sleeved jackets, but as soon as they got outside the school gate, the temperature soared to over 30 degrees Celsius, and they all ended up taking off their shirts because of the heat.

The closer you get to the campus, the higher the temperature becomes, and the cell phone signal is intermittent.

"The temperature has risen this much?" At the Nuclear Energy Research Institute of Yenching University, an elderly professor frowned deeply as he looked at the overwhelming amount of on-site videos and actual temperature measurement data on his phone.

After being cross-verified by so many netizens, the abnormal temperature surge in the Haichuan University area has been basically confirmed.

He roughly estimated using energy formulas that the energy required to raise the temperature by tens of degrees within a ten-kilometer radius would be astronomical.

"Could it be? Haichuan University really set that 'artificial sun' on fire?" the old professor muttered to himself, his heart wavering for the first time.

Currently, it seems that only the massive energy released by controlled nuclear fusion can cause this scale of environmental impact.

Furthermore, students and residents have reported frequent malfunctions of electronic devices, which is consistent with the strong magnetic field interference generated by the fusion device.

All the signs put together pointed to a conclusion that he found hard to believe.

Jinling, a nuclear energy research institute.

"Director! Look at this!" Researcher Xiao Chen held up his phone and ran up to an elderly man with white hair.

The screen displayed a compilation of news articles about various "strange things" near Haichuan University, along with a short video of the Seventeenth Mountain taken by a netizen.

In the video, large swathes of vegetation on the mountain have withered, the soil is cracked, and the entire mountain faintly glows with a dark red light in the night, making it a real-life version of "Flaming Mountain".

"Electronic devices are malfunctioning, the temperature is abnormal, the mountain is glowing..." The old man remained silent for a long time after reading this.

These phenomena, taken individually, might have other explanations, but when put together, they almost unequivocally point to one fact: there exists a source within Haichuan University that continuously releases enormous energy and magnetic fields.

Coincidentally, Haichuan University had just announced the creation of an "artificial sun" device not long ago.

"They really made it?" The old man frowned, feeling as if his understanding had been shaken.

A university that started with crowdfunding seems to have really touched the threshold of controlled nuclear fusion?

The glowing mountain is very likely the result of energy leakage from the device penetrating the rock strata!

"I didn't expect that the Haichuan University that Senior Brother Qi went to would be so amazing!" Xiao Chen couldn't help but exclaim.

The old man's eyes were complicated, and he did not respond. The dramatic changes in the environment around Haichuan University have indirectly confirmed the possible authenticity of their official website announcement.

The "mountain and river ring," the 800,000-fold magnetic field, and the "artificial sun"—these things that sound like fantasy may actually have been created little by little by them.

Even if the project is not fully successful in the end, the progress shown so far is enough to make many long-established research institutes in China ashamed.

He had previously planned to persuade Qi Limin to come back after the project ended, but now it seems that even if he asked, Qi might not be willing to leave.

"Sigh," the old man shook his head and smiled bitterly, "If it were me, I wouldn't leave either."

At the same time, the topic "The sun is hidden on the campus of Haichuan University" skyrocketed to the top of the trending search list.

As more and more netizens gathered to watch the drama unfold, the die-hard fans of Haichuan University finally felt a sense of triumph.

"Professors from Southern University, you've presented the evidence, why are you silent? Where is your 10,000-word 'debunking' statement?"

"True strength lies in its ability to withstand criticism!"

"Just because you can't handle it doesn't mean Haichuan University can't!"

"Wow, the university I admire is so hardcore! They've built an artificial sun! How many places in China can do that?"

Those who initially voiced the strongest doubts—whether it was the 45 universities that jointly issued their statement, or scholars and influential figures in the nuclear energy field—have now collectively fallen silent.

It seems to have disappeared from the internet. Some sharp-eyed netizens even discovered that the 10,000-word joint statement of questioning that was widely circulated has been quietly deleted.

Emergency meetings are currently being held in chaos at all 45 universities.

Professors in the fields of nuclear energy, materials, and new energy were urgently summoned with only one topic: to analyze what was going on with the "strange things" at Haichuan University.

After much discussion, the conclusion sent chills down the spines of all attendees: there is a terrifyingly strong magnetic field within Haichuan University, powerful enough to interfere with electronic devices within a ten-kilometer radius, as well as a giant energy source that can continuously affect the regional temperature.

This means that the "mountain and river ring", "eight hundred thousand times magnetic field" and "artificial sun" mentioned in their announcement are very likely true.

"I remember Haichuan University was originally just a concept conceived by netizens, right? It was only because of that president named Wei Ying that it was actually built, wasn't it?"

Shocked, the higher-ups of various universities finally regarded Haichuan University as a rival that they had to take seriously. They secretly mobilized their connections and began to investigate Haichuan University's background, from the president, Wei Ying, to the cafeteria aunt.

They were shocked to discover that Haichuan University had quietly published over fifty top-tier academic papers in SCI journals.

Moreover, all of them were published intensively in the last two months, almost one a day, covering a wide range of fields, like a wholesale distribution of academic papers.

"Is this still the Haichuan University we know?" The same thought popped into the minds of all the university's top officials.

The scientific research behemoth before them was completely different from the image of the "crowdfunded internet celebrity university" in their minds.

In academia, those authoritative professors who had publicly questioned nuclear energy felt a mix of emotions.

"Really, they actually did it." Seeing more and more field evidence, the professors had to accept this reality.

Only a continuously burning "artificial sun" can explain the extreme high temperatures near Haichuan University that are out of season and geographically extreme.

In their view, there are very few countries in the world that can push controlled nuclear fusion experiments to the point of creating an "artificial sun".

The most technologically advanced of these devices set a record high temperature of 80 million degrees Celsius, which was maintained for 10 seconds; the magnetic field strength was 400,000 times that of the Earth's magnetic field; and the "sun" they created could only be ignited briefly.

The progress announced by Haichuan University has already surpassed these records in every aspect.

With a magnetic field 800,000 times stronger, the "sun" that never went out was almost certain that the "sun" inside Haichuan University had never been extinguished, otherwise the surrounding temperature could not have remained so high.
