The End of the Earth
Chapter 12 Wasteland
Time flies, 3 months have passed
The water resource problem of the temporary shelter has also been preliminarily resolved.
Using water magic to store water while maintaining the existing population is such a simple thing that needs to be verified repeatedly.
It is not clear whether the water produced by water magic is extracted from the surrounding air or transformed from magical power. Even Kalista and others do not know the principle.
You should know that the current shelter has switched to internal air circulation operation. This is not just a demonstration of the principle of water magic, but also includes the possibility of other magic such as electricity and earth affecting the air quality in the shelter.
An air environment without electric ions, hydrogen ions and other factors is called a vacuum, which is a potential hidden danger to everyone's safety.
The magic of magic is self-evident. According to the basic magic theory passed down to Xiang San by the elders, the magic in the blue world is divided into three categories: elements, elves, and alchemy. The rest of the derivative branches of magic are very rare, such as mental magic and language magic, and the others are even rarer.
"All managers will meet on the third basement floor at 2:00 PM."
Callista's voice rang out over the local communicator. This was the first meeting of the shelter managers.
The afternoon meeting reassessed the shelter's supplies and the mood of the personnel, including the evacuation situation on the basement floor.
Also audit the supplies consumed in the past three months.
In the blue world, the New Year is called the Star Festival. It is a festival to welcome the new year with a sky full of stars.
A temporary refuge to survive this extremely precious festival after the world overlaps.
January 30, 2033 is Chinese New Year's Eve, and it is also a festival around the world on the eve of the world reunion, commemorating the wonderful past year and expressing expectations for the coming year.
In a refuge that includes multiple ethnic groups from two worlds, the role of festivals may be to find a sense of belonging under the shadow of disasters in this world and to improve the life satisfaction of all residents.
Sometimes this form has more advantages than disadvantages, although it consumes more materials.
But this was not within Xiang San's consideration. Just like Kalista's previous suggestion that the elves reduce their intake to supplement the needs of others, Xiang San did not agree with her suggestion.
Sharing joys and sorrows can sometimes be more stabilizing for the overall situation. Consumption of supplies is inevitable, and the right approach is to distribute them equally and rationally, rather than arguing about who gets more and who gets less, which involves complicated social interactions.
This is the role of the system, which prevents people from wasting their energy on meaningless things.
In April 2033, the temperature inside the shelter was even colder than in winter, which reminded him of the nuclear winter that Amman had mentioned.
When a large number of nuclear weapons are used on a large scale on Earth, especially when nuclear weapons are used to strike flammable targets such as cities, a large amount of smoke and dust particles will enter the Earth's atmosphere, which will cause very cold weather.
During a nuclear explosion, the enormous energy injects a large amount of smoke and dust into the atmosphere, some of which even enter the stratosphere at a height of more than 12 kilometers.
Since most of the smoke and dust particles produced by nuclear explosions are less than 1 micron in diameter, they can stay in the high altitude for several days or even more than a year. Their average diameter is about 10 microns smaller than the infrared wavelength. They have a strong absorption capacity for visible light radiation from the sun, but a weaker absorption capacity for infrared radiation from the ground. This causes the upper atmosphere to warm up and the surface temperature to drop, producing an effect opposite to the greenhouse effect, making the surface feel like a severe winter.
As for the theory of nuclear winter, most people in the scientific community do not support this concept.
However, no one will question it today, because nuclear winter has already occurred in various explosion areas. The high heat and charged properties of nuclear weapons and other world substances have produced a series of special reactions, new environments, life forms, and so on.
The Earth is no longer the Earth before the overlap, and now there are a large amount of abnormal matter floating in unknown areas of the Earth.
Under the influence of nuclear weapons, the miracles of the universe seemed to begin to react again, and certain rules were being broken.
The San Francisco Bay Area, located in California, USA, is known as the second largest metropolis in North America. Like other regions, it is also one of the targets of nuclear strikes and is close to the nuclear explosion point.
The San Francisco Peninsula in the Bay Area, locally referred to as the Peninsula region, is composed of several small and medium-sized cities and suburban communities in San Mateo County and the northwestern part of Santa Clara County. The Hayward Bridge connects to the eastern part of the Bay Area and is the life hub of the Bay Area.
At this moment, under the huge air flow overpressure generated by the nuclear explosion, the Hayward Bridge, known as one of the longest bridges in the world, no longer exists, leaving only some wreckage exposed on the sea.
On the beach in the shallow sea area below the wreckage, endless crimson fleshy tissue was spread under the sea water in the bay like a huge meat blanket, and the red light emitted from their surface converged to one point.
What is it brewing? No one could have imagined that under the high-temperature ultra-frequency rays, the evil life form could survive and even undergo some changes.
And this is not a single miracle.
In the east of the earth, in the Hikoshima area of Shimonoseki City on the Japanese island, the largest city in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
A giant dragon is using its unstable dragon fire breath to melt the nuclear-proof door at the entrance of Shelter No. 11 in Yamaguchi Prefecture.
The nuclear-proof door of the shelter, which could even defend against nuclear weapons, was gradually melted by the dragon's breath, exposing its internal structure. A massacre was about to begin.
If Xiang San was present, he would definitely find that this dragon was the black dragon that almost killed him. After experiencing the horrific nuclear explosion, this black dragon seemed to be larger and more biologically imposing. The parts of the black dragon that were once covered by machinery were now covered with crimson tumors.
The black dragon's pupils were filled with brutality. Before it could spit out the second dragon breath, the scrapped vehicles and buildings around the dragon's body began to emit light and heat and began to melt.
At an altitude of 7500 meters above the Black Dragon, several electromagnetic radiation-resistant K11 Raven tactical drones are recording the Black Dragon's every move below.
The black dragon seemed unaware of the Raven drones. At this moment, the dragon's head suddenly raised its head, and a hint of contempt and cunning flashed in its huge eyes.
With the naked eye, one can see the pale blue flame slowly gathering into a dragon breath bomb in the mouth of the abyss dragon.
Suddenly, the dragon bit the dragon breath bomb, and then opened its mouth. The high-temperature and high-pressure plasma radiation particles produced by the explosion of the dragon breath bomb shot out from the dragon's mouth, and at the same time rapidly expanded outward and compressed into a huge beam of light to attack.
In just a few seconds, the Raven drones had no time to make tactical evasive maneuvers and were completely wiped out.
The source of the Raven drone link terminal signal is a drone control room. All the drone terminal ports in the room are connected to the quantum server in the center of the drone control room through quantum lines.
Shinsekai Tokyo Branch, the only base controlled and operated by artificial intelligence, is located under a commercial building called Hanabi Daisho in Edogawa District.
The artificial intelligence at the Tokyo base is called Hanako Yoshiyo, and it gave itself this name based on Japanese culture.
"Legendary creature data is being uploaded"
This video record of the Black Dragon, including the data information detected by the Raven UAV before it was destroyed, was uploaded to the New World Headquarters as soon as possible.
The data from the Tokyo base shocked the top management of New World. The current situation was indeed beyond their expectations.
The survivors of Jia City are about to face turmoil. The nuclear bomb detonated in Jia City not only razed all the buildings on the ground, but also severely damaged the Miracle Tower in Area C. The tower has begun to shatter and a bright white light is shining through the cracks.
Unfortunately, on the devastated land, no life could witness its fall, only unknown roars in response.
The cracks in the Miracle Tower became bigger and bigger, and finally the Miracle Tower that led to the sky collapsed completely. As the Miracle Tower collapsed, a ball of light flew away into the distance at each floor, and some of the light balls fell directly under the tower.
2033年4月16号13:00
106 days have passed since the nuclear disaster, and they are ready to send ten members out to see the situation outside.
When Xiang San and his group put on the bulky modified chemical protective suits and stepped out of the narrow iron door leading to the ground on the underground floor.
The sky was gray and they did not see the sun. At 1 o'clock in the afternoon, the day was as bright as night. The large piles of charcoal at the entrance of the shelter were still burning. They were branches of the World Tree that were burned into carbon wood by thermonuclear reactions. The elder had underestimated mankind's nuclear weapons. At the critical moment, he stretched out his branches to add another layer of protection to the shelter to resist the fragile iron gate of the nuclear attack.
"Squeak~ Are you there? Squeak~ Can you hear it?
Everyone, please don't get too far away, the interference is too strong, please stay close."
"Roger that, Commander!"
They began to search the surrounding ruins. Although radioactive contamination was dangerous, there were still many things that could be used as long as they were handled properly. The materials buried by the collapsed buildings could still be used again.
After searching for nearly twenty minutes, a team member's call attracted everyone's attention.
"Commander! There's something glowing!"
Glowing?
When they walked up to the team member, they saw the glowing object he mentioned.
The ball of light was the size of a washbasin, and its brightness was so high that its specific shape could not be seen. The team member was brave enough to touch it with his hand.
"It seems like there is no weight at all?"
The team member was shaking the ball of light as if he was holding a cloud in his hands.
"Commander, are you taking us back to the shelter?"
Everyone was looking at Xiang San, waiting for instructions.
"The safety of the shelter comes first. Find a place to hide before conducting research. Gather usable supplies and equipment first."
"I have an idea for a place, Commander!"
Xiang San was curious about what made this team member so confident.
It turned out that the place he was talking about was under the body of the tree spirit elder. The elder's actual tree body had become a giant charred tree. Right below the charred tree, most of the tree roots extended to the shelter to protect them, forming a pit. The giant charred tree just covered it. They only needed to dig a gap and cover it up.
After doing all this, everyone turned around and saw Xiang San with his hands clasped together and his head lowered, and a muttering sound came from the communicator.
Several dwarves and elves from the azure world also murmured.
Although the rest of the humans on Earth didn't know what they were saying specifically, they also joined in the prayers. Sometimes when emotions are synchronized, language and race will no longer be a barrier.
"Let's go, we still have friends who are still alive. This is such a sad sight."
It was a scorched earth with ruins everywhere and no signs of life. The whole world was so quiet, without a trace of life.
The only responses they received were their own breathing and the interfering noise of the communicator.
