Chapter 64: Tragedy in the Clouds

As soon as Dr. Mizuno said this, Horii understood why there were so many fragmented images in the dark clouds, all of which were caused by the interception of electromagnetic waves emitted by humans by the dark clouds.

"In other words, the Lightning Man mutated into a monster and was probably affected by human electromagnetic waves." Horii came up with a hypothesis based on the information available.

"Not a possibility, but a certainty," Dr. Mizuno said categorically, "From the beginning of electromagnetic wave communication technology in the 60s of the last century to the present, how many electromagnetic waves have been emitted by human beings into the ionosphere in the past few decades, and how much impact has it had on the ionosphere.

Life is very sensitive to changes in the living environment, and in such a short period of time, the living environment has changed so much that the lightning people either cannot adapt to the environment and perish, or adapt to the environment and produce mutations, obviously they choose the latter. ”

Dr. Mizuno and Horii were communicating with each other about science, and the rest of the Victory Team did not interject, both in the Flying Swallow and in the command room, listening carefully to Dr. Mizuno's hypothesis about the Lightning Man.

The Divine Eye, which entered the dark clouds, also sent back another wave of data, and Dr. Mizuno immediately threw Horii aside and worked with his team to process the received data, only to surprise everyone.

"Doctor, look at this." A graduate student looked at the screen in front of him in astonishment, and Dr. Mizuno immediately ran over and looked over, and was equally stunned to the point of speechlessness, only to see an image of the inside of the cloud on the screen:

Lightning raged among the clouds, dense and almost intertwined into a net, occasionally for a second or two of silence, countless fireflies flew in the dark clouds, looking extraordinarily gorgeous.

"What's that?" Dr. Mizuno pushes the glasses that have almost fallen off, and the students slowly approach the fireflies with their eyes, and the camera captures the tiny creatures that look like tadpoles and are covered in a translucent film.

Horii looked at these creatures he had never seen before, and said in shock, "This can't be the Lightning Man, right?" ”

"It's so beautiful." Dr. Mizuno couldn't help but smile with joy on his face, his long-standing hypothesis of the existence of some kind of creature in the ionosphere has finally been confirmed, so many years of hard work have not been in vain, and those who laugh at him will have nothing to say.

"This is the Lightning Man, it's really ugly." Glancing at the photo of the lightning man, Xincheng refocused his attention on the clouds in the distance, turned on the communication, and said, "Alright, doctor, your probe can return to base, we are going to attack." ”

"What? Attack? Dr. Mizuno was stunned, then his face changed dramatically, and he shouted, "No, absolutely not. ”

"Why?" Xincheng was extremely puzzled, and for the sake of Horii's face, he said patiently: "Doctor, this cloud is about to fall to the ground, and it will be bad if it becomes a monster." ”

"The Lightning People had to drop their altitude because of the change in the ionospheric environment, they just want to survive, can't they be allowed to survive in this area?" Dr. Mizuno said excitedly, "The Lightning People are also creatures of the earth, and like humans, they live on this planet, and no one has the right to deprive them of the right to live. ”

After a pause for a few seconds, Dr. Mizuno suppressed his excitement and persuaded bitterly: "I know that this cloud will interfere with electromagnetic waves, which can make passenger planes passing by here bypass, many creatures on the earth have become extinct due to human activities, and if you don't reflect on it, human beings will also become extinct." ”

Dr. Mizuno's words left everyone in the victory team speechless, and only Xincheng said unconvinced: "But he will become a monster." ”

"How do you know he's going to turn into a monster? Has he become a monster now? Is it because you victorious team think that this race may become a monster, so you want to destroy them? Don't you think it's too much? Dr. Mizuno was excited again.

Zong Fang had to open his mouth to play a round and said, "Doctor, we are also worried, after all, such a strong magnetic field, once it reaches the sky above the city, it will be terrible. ”

If this dark cloud does not stand still and does not fall in height, it is just used to study ionospheric organisms, and it can be regarded as accumulating experience for human research on other forms of organisms.

But the problem is that the speed at which it descends and moves is increasing all the time, and if it reaches the sky above the city, such a strong magnetic field interference will cause all electronic products to fail or even be damaged, and the loss will be great.

Horii didn't speak, his hands quickly tapped on the keyboard in front of him, and he used the combination of the Divine Eye and the satellite to conduct a detailed survey of the clouds, but he found something amazing and hurriedly shouted, "Doctor, look at this." ”

Dr. Mizuno opened the information sent by Horii and opened it to see that it was a plasma energy distribution map of the clouds, and he saw that there were countless extremely weak plasma reactions in the large clouds, scattered in the clouds like stars in the sky.

In the center, there is an incomparably strong plasma energy aggregate, compared with the surrounding plasma energy reaction, it is like an elephant standing in a colony of ants, and this plasma energy aggregate is not standing still, but swimming in the clouds.

There are obviously many faint plasma energy points ahead, but after this plasma 'elephant' swims, there are only a few left, as if it is a vacuum cleaner, sucking all the debris in front of it into its stomach.

Dr. Mizuno sat there stunned as he watched the satellite image, unable to speak for a long time, which was too unexpected for him, and Horii also discovered that the plasma 'elephant' shrinks in size by a point every time it grows.

He didn't speak, but Horii sighed, and said in an extremely heavy tone: "He is devouring the lightning man in the clouds, his own weight is constantly increasing, and the pressure of the clouds is constantly decreasing in height. ”

"There's a monster in there." Xincheng gritted his teeth, and then shouted, "Doctor, get out of here, we're going to destroy the monsters." ”

Dr. Mizuno looked at the giant plasma energy mass that was still swimming and devouring other plasma in a daze, his lips trembled, and a look of grief gradually appeared on his face, and he spoke for a long time: "But this monster was created by us humans, and the harsh ionospheric environment made the lightning people have to lower their altitude in order to survive."

The height can be reduced, the free electrons and ions are greatly reduced or even disappeared, and there is no food source, so that... devouring each other to mutate such a monster, this is a tragedy created by humans. ”
