Death of the Mastermind

"Shamefully, we didn't kill the Monster Mastermind. It overloaded itself so severely that it spontaneously combusted to death."

Shao Zhengyang told Meng Chao that although the Monster Mastermind's Illusion Killing Array was formidable, trapping more than twenty God Realm Experts at once came at an incomparably terrible cost.

Whether human brains, monster brains, or even silicon-based computing chips, all consumed enormous amounts of energy and released immense heat when operating at ultra-high speeds.

Very often, what constrained performance was not the performance of the brain or chip itself, but temperature.

For a supercomputer, the cooling system was one of its most important core components.

As for the human brain, the consequence of racking one's brains and thinking excessively was that it easily became scorching hot.

This super-brain deep within the monster nest had a diameter of several hundred meters and a volume more than ten million times that of an ordinary human brain. Heat dissipation was naturally a major problem.

One had to know that when an object's surface area doubled, its volume increased geometrically.

Yet heat could often only be dissipated through surface area.

That was why the larger a creature's body was, the higher its internal temperature and the harder it was to disperse heat.

Thus, when the Monster Mastermind frantically stimulated its brain tissue and released incomparably intense Brainwaves, the temperature at the super-brain's core rose at a visible rate from dozens of degrees to several hundred, even over a thousand degrees!

Even though the super-brain was filled with twisting, winding "cooling ducts."

And the substance forming its "brain tissue" was a kind of alien cell with extraordinarily high strength, capable of resisting freezing cold and scorching heat.

It still could not withstand the terrifying furnace-like temperatures after such a prolonged battle.

Not to mention that more
