Hogwarts time travel

The mayor didn't have the idea of ​​showing off, so he took Loya and walked down the steeple.

When he reached the first floor, he didn't open the door and went outside, but chose to open the basement.

The basement is connected to the ground by a deep, spiraling staircase. The entire staircase is made of rough stones. When you step on it, you can hear a dull sound, which echoes far away in the dark underground.

Of course, these so-called darkness were nothing to Loya, he saw everything in front of him clearly.

It wasn't dug out later, but it existed in the first place.

This place seemed to be an underground hangar in the past, and the wreckage of many planes could be seen piled up in dark corners like garbage, and occasionally the remains of pilots could be seen.

There was some kind of cataclysm here, and many aircraft and pilots were scrapped and killed.

This stone staircase is in the middle of the hangar, carefully extending to the ground.

As soon as his feet landed on the ground, the originally cautious Mr. Mayor suddenly became excited and trotted towards the corner of the hangar.

The two turned the corner, and what caught their eyes was a ball floating in mid-air.

Half of this ball is red and half is black. The red part is crimson magma, which is fluid, and the black part is obsidian-like solid.

This sphere floats in mid-air in violation of the laws of physics, surrounded by tubes of various shapes and different eras, all of which are extracting resources from the sphere.

Luo Ya had a faint guess in his heart, but in order to cooperate with the mayor, he still showed a surprised look.

"Mr. Mayor, this..."

"That's right!" The mayor said impatiently, with a smug expression, "We are still using the blood of the planet!"

"But when I communicate with those citizens, I will tell them that the city they are in now and all the glory it brings are all obtained by you by pedaling the wheel."

"Even if people don't have the blood of the planet, they can still be revived."

Loya suddenly understood why they were so active in riding bicycles.

People who have experienced many hardships are eager to predict a sense of identity, and they want to be satisfied, so the mayor fabricated a lie, a lie that can satisfy the people.

"I understand the truth," Loya scratched his head, "but why not use thermal power directly? I remember that it doesn't seem difficult, right? Is there no raw material?"

"You can really not use the blood of the planet."

"It seems that you have really come from afar." Emerson sighed, "Since a long time ago, there has been no energy source other than the blood of the planet on this land."

"The blood of the planet is very repulsive to other energy sources. If this machine has used the blood of the planet before, it will be directly scrapped if it is replaced with energy obtained through other means, or it will be simply enlightened and turned into a murderous machine monster."

"Therefore, we have no other options other than the blood of the planet. Even if we build a brand new machine, the machine that builds the machine uses the energy of the blood of the planet, and it will also be infected."

"We no longer have the ability to manually build a brand new device that has nothing to do with Planetblood."

"Now on this planet, apart from the cities that use the blood of the planet, they are completely primitive tribes. There is no third option."

"Then use it." Loya nodded helplessly.

The blood of the planet will make people pessimistic, and there is a chance to make the machine go berserk, but its flaws are not hidden, it is still an extremely powerful energy source, since it cannot be rejected, it is simply open to use.

"That also needs to be very careful." Emerson said, pointing to the blood of the planet that breathes like a living thing in the sky.

"If it was just the side effects in the past, there wouldn't be so many people who would object to them. After all, there have been many products with side effects in human history, and this one is not bad. Especially since his returns are so high, you can definitely stick to it. .”

"But the accident happened again."

"After expelling the terraforming freaks of the planetary enlightenment, the people were going to go back to the surface and start over."

"However, they suddenly discovered that at the two poles of the planet, the jedi formed by the combination of magma and scorched earth suddenly spread, and swallowed up one-third of the world's land and sea in an unstoppable manner. Everywhere will be transformed into a state of solid-liquid mixture."

"Scientists call them 'the abyss' phenomenon because they're just as close to the abyss as they are inescapable."

"People have also tried to transform the abyss, but without exception, all attempts have failed."

"And the terrifying life derived from the abyss—the touch of the abyss, seems to have no upper limit of reproduction at all. As time goes by, there will be more and more, bigger, and more difficult to deal with."

"So, we finally understand why the scientist named this energy source the blood of the planet."

"We let go of the planet's blood, and the planet is taking revenge on us." Emerson smiled wryly.

"As long as the blood of the planet is used, the abyss will continue to spread. Now we are completely drinking poison to quench our thirst."

"The only hope now is to redevelop the deep space voyage technology before the abyss spreads to the entire planet, and leave here."

Loya raised his eyebrows. It turned out that the clear dividing line at the border was not a product of manpower, but a spontaneous behavior of the abyss.

They are always spreading, but slowly and over a long period of time, not as quickly as in the past.

But it has already occupied two-thirds of the planet, and all mineral resources will decompose after being covered by them, and the resources that humans can call are becoming less and less.

After losing the ability to obtain resources from outer space, the situation of human beings is really not good.

"Have you ever looked for the source of the abyss?" Loya was curious about the scientists' research.

"Of course!"

Emerson nodded, "At the pole, we deployed three legions to defend the surrounding abyss touch, and placed the most advanced drilling machines."

"But it didn't turn out well."

"The efficiency of the drilling machine is comparable to that of a snail after entering the ground. Although the magma cannot destroy the body of the drilling machine, it seriously slows down its forward speed."

"Even if it was modified later, the speed will not be much faster."

"After three months of drilling, we still haven't found the starting point of the abyss. Instead, the establishment of the three legions was directly disabled, causing the entire country to collapse. Now."

Loya listened to these words, closed his eyes and rested on the chair.

Emerson didn't dare to say anything, quietly waiting for Loya's words.

He didn't know why he would confide in this boy he met on the first day, but he really wanted to hear other people's opinions or something.
