64、Mofan-Wenlu Rift Valley Earthquake (1)
The earth shook and the whole world was affected, even in Luojing, the capital of the source country, which was not felt by the earthquake.
The epicenter was in the Temperate Rift Valley, where the source country meets a landlocked country, Asda.
At the bottom of the rift valley is an open field lined with volcanoes. On the farther peaks, there is a significant vertical variation in vegetation due to the huge difference in height and slope.
From the humid tropical rainforests, lush deciduous forests, to the alpine meadows surrounded by crystalline lakes, and finally the glaciers and snowy peaks that glisten in the sun when the sky is clear, the continuous mountains offer a variety of exotic flowers and plants, forming a unique landscape.
But that became a thing of the past overnight, with a 9.2 magnitude earthquake destroying nearly a quarter of the canyon's natural landscape.
Mo Fan overlooked the rift valley from the warplane, a place that humans emotionally called "earth scars", after the earthquake, triggered a series of landslides and volcanic eruptions, becoming a veritable earth scar.
The landslide buried a small patch of primeval forest. Lava erupted from a large fissure three to four hundred meters wide on both sides of the volcano and flowed down the valley, where magma and forest fires destroyed vegetation on the other side of the canyon.
Everywhere the planes passed, the heat was still felt, and the burnt black forest—if it could be called a forest—was covered in rock debris, volcanic ash, and magma that was gradually beginning to condense, and in many places there were flames or thick green smoke.
Gao Liwen stood beside Mo Fan, looking at the scene in front of him, he couldn't be as calm as Mo Fan.
Gao Liwen said: "Elder Mo, this earthquake is unprecedented......
"For you guys. Mo Fan reminded, "In prehistoric times, earthquakes of this magnitude were recorded. ”
"That'...... Elder Yimo, will this earthquake have an impact on human civilization?"
"Destroy human civilization? Mo Fan turned his head to look at him and said.
"Secondary disasters have destroyed a quarter of the Rift Valley vegetation. ”
"Did there be any casualties? I remember it was supposed to be no man's land, and the earthquake happened in the early hours of the morning. ”
"A fifteen-member scientific expedition has gone missing. ”
Gao Liwen deeply regretted it, and basically concluded that this expedition team had been killed. This is a scientific research team supported by the cooperation of the source country and the Asda country, and they are all first-class natural scientists.
Mo Fan said lightly: "It's a pity. But I think that's already a very low casualty rate. Of course, there will certainly be an impact on the ecosystem, but it will not be irreparable. ”
Mo Fan believes that the above is not the reason why Gao Liwen repeatedly asked him to come over to see the earthquake area. He waited for Gao Liwen to take the initiative to report.
Sure enough, Gao Liwen said: "I'm not just worried about this...... Elder Mo, this earthquake is very strange, the epicenter has a wide range, not an isolated face, but an entire façade pulled along the mountain.
And, normally, this earthquake caused a large eruption, and theoretically there should have been a small earthquake in the volcanic area earlier. This time, it's like...... It's as if there is a force that suddenly moves the whole earth......"
"I'm sorry, I'm a fighter, not a scientist. If you need to analyze and study the earthquake situation, I can ask the teacher to assist you, but this is not our specialty, we have not studied it in depth, and we may not know more than you. ”
Gao Liwen shook his head and said, "No, Elder Mo, you misunderstood what I meant. After last night's earthquake, at noon today, I received a report from a geologist, and I thought maybe you would like to meet him. ”
Mo Fan cast a questioning glance at him.
Gao Liwen continued: "Professor Gong Weijun of Yuecheng University of Science and Technology has been studying the fluctuations of Earth's nuclear energy for many years. He believes that the earthquake is related to fluctuations in the energy of the Earth's core. ”
Mo Fan tightened his eyebrows, he didn't know that there were actually humans studying the earth's core energy fluctuations.
"Good. You arrange for him to meet me at the Yuecheng base. ”
Gao Liwen was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Mo Fan to agree so quickly, and he also prepared a set of rhetoric.
"Questions?"
"Nope. I'll call someone to arrange it right away. "Whether in the source country or in the world, Gao Liwen is the president of a country, and he is a little shorter in front of Mo Fan, but he is helpless.
Mo Fan ordered the fighter plane to fly back, first send Gao Liwen back to Luojing, and then turn back to Yuecheng.
The word "earth core energy", before the spiritual deed group was exposed, was a delusion at all, Mo Fan didn't expect that someone would be addicted to this delusion. He had to see what this man named Gong Weijun had studied.
When Mo Fan returned to the Yuecheng base, before sunset, he had already received a message from Gao Liwen's secretary that Gong Weijun would come to visit at nine o'clock tomorrow morning with research materials.
Mo Fan originally thought that Gong Weijun would come over in the evening, but he was not in a hurry at this time. Running around makes him bored, and it's good to have a night of leisure.
He figured that he was indeed the busiest Chief Elder in the history of the Spiritual Pact. For a long time, the Chief Elder was responsible for sitting at the Lingqi City Headquarters, coordinating the overall situation, and only going out when he encountered special tasks.
As soon as he sat down in the room, Duan Yunhao appeared in front of the door.
Duan Yunhao was originally the deputy hall master of the school, and after the death of the original hall master Lu Guangying, the school hall was greatly damaged, and he took charge of the recovery affairs of the school, and was naturally elected as one of the new elders afterwards.
Mo Fan said, "Why are you here?"
"You look like a movie star now. Duan Yunhao didn't answer directly, he walked in, and the doors and windows closed automatically after he entered.
"How's it going?When can we restart the gene factory?" Mo Fan confirmed that the door was closed, but still consciously lowered his voice.
"With such a huge genetic database, it is not easy to recombine. The point is that the data of the Spirit Race is now almost completely lost. ”
"Then reverse extract it from the superhuman. ”
Duan Yunhao smiled helplessly: "You said that it was as easy as cutting a pound of pork from the vegetable market." Maybe you should try to snatch the database back from Chang Feng, it will be easier. ”
"I'm trying. ”
"I don't see it. ”
"If there was no trust between people, I don't think this would be possible. You should know very well how Lu Guangying died. Mo Fan said quietly, but secretly cold.
Duan Yunhao disagreed: "It's a pity that I'm not Lu Guangying." ”
"Then you should know not to try to provoke me. ”
Duan Yunhao smiled contemptuously, Mo Fan was the head of the Spirit Covenant Group in front of the human race, but behind closed doors, none of them was much better than the other: "You really think that you are the king of the mountain." Climbing so high, it hurts to fall. ”
"Thank you for your concern, I think it's been a long time, just waiting to see me fall. A cold smile also welled up on Mo Fan's face.
