After sending Walkerson away, Duqiu summoned several well-known geologists from the Institute of Magical Science and Technology to discuss the Great Ice Age.

After listening to Du Qiu's description, Han Qiang, the director of the Geological Research Branch, a native of Tang Guo, immediately said: "Since the prophecy describes that a large number of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions will occur before the Great Ice Age, it is very likely that the Great Ice Age was caused by volcanic ash covering the whole world." ”

Zhukovsky, a geologist from the Rakshasa country, shook his head slightly and said: "I have studied similar topics before, and I have preliminarily determined that the Great Ice Age is related to the formation of submarine seamounts in the tropical ocean of the Blue Star.

Volcanic ash can cause a period of global cooling, but it is the changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide that are fundamental to the true Great Ice Age. ”

Du Qiu asked in surprise: "The formation of submarine seamounts should be caused by plate movements, right?" How does it affect climate change? ”

Zhukovsky explains: "My research has found that there have been some large mountain ranges in the tropics during the last few great glacial periods of the Blue Star.

This is caused by the collision of continental plates and islands, and the formation of mountains will absorb a large amount of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, causing the atmosphere to no longer hold heat, and the blue star enters the ice age. ”

Duqiu continued: "Why do mountains absorb a lot of carbon dioxide during their formation? And why is this the case when mountains form in the tropics? ”

Zhukovsky smiled and said: "The tropics are humid and prone to erosion, and during the formation of mountain ranges, this erosion causes silicates to dissolve into the ocean.

As a result, seawater becomes significantly more alkaline, which quickly absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and dissolves it in water.

I have studied geological data in the tropics and confirmed that the more such mountain ranges protrude in the tropics before the Great Ice Age, the colder the blue star will be.

In particular, I found that if the fault zone where the ocean-land plate collides in the tropics, if it reaches 1-30,000 kilometers, then there will be an ice age.

I also confirmed that there are three such fault zones in the geological rock formations of the three great glacial periods in the history of Bluestar, all of which are more than 10,000 kilometers long. ”

Han Qiang asked: "According to your theory, this time the Blue Star entered the Great Ice Age, and there should also be such a new fault zone."

However, the prophecy says that the Great Ice Age will begin on December 21 this year, and in less than half a year, how can a large number of submarine seamounts suddenly be born in the tropics, or such huge new fault zones? ”

Zhukovsky said in a confused tone: "I also think it is unlikely, so I think the prophecy of the Mayan civilization may still be false." ”

At this time, Hoffmann, another geologist from Germania, said: "Guys, have you forgotten? A major earthquake has just struck California, and Professor David predicts that the famous San Andreas Fault will collapse.

Don't you think that after this fault collapsed, no new fault was created? ”

Zhukovsky immediately patted his head and said: "That's right, we forgot that the prophecy said that there would be major earthquakes and volcanic eruptions before the Great Ice Age.

Volcanic ash from volcanic eruptions will cause the blue star to cool down rapidly, and large earthquakes will create a large number of fault zones, and plate orogeny will intensify.

The combination of the two made the Great Ice Age extremely long, so it seems that the predictions of the Mayan civilization are really possible.

At present, human beings can cope with a short period of glaciation, but such a long glacial period may really make human beings extinct. ”

Han Qiang smiled and said, "With our magical technology, human beings will not become extinct." ”

The participants suddenly came back to their senses, yes, the magical technology is building the Celestial Space City, and there is really an ice age, at least as a member of the magical technology, they can all survive.

Du Qiu looked at the experts and said, "Since the Great Ice Age may be the cause of these two things, is there any way to stop or slow down the impact of both?" ”

Han Qiang frowned and thought for a while, and said: "Volcanic ash covers the global atmosphere, maybe some kind of aircraft can be used to clean up the volcanic ash, so that Blue Star will not cool down quickly." ”

Zhukovsky advised: "It may be difficult to stop a major earthquake, but if it is predicted that fault zones will occur in some places, it may be possible to use nuclear weapons to blast them underground in advance to stop the extension of fault zones." ”

"You're crazy!" Hoffman exclaimed, "That's crazy, aren't you worried that nuclear weapons will directly create new fault zones?" ”

Zhukovsky shook his head and said: "I'm not worried, you must know that our Rakshasa country used nuclear explosions to extinguish fires in natural gas fields as early as the last century, and also used nuclear explosions to dig a huge reservoir, and we still have a lot of experience in this area."

I believe that as long as the blast yield and location are designed, the extension of the fault zone can be effectively blocked, thereby reducing the probability of glacial periods. ”

Zhukovsky's words reminded Du Qiu of the previous incident of detonating a nuclear bomb and attacking the nearby core area of Area 51, perhaps this is a solution.

It's just that if you want to implement this plan, you must at least win the support of the Rakshasa country or the United States, which have large enough nuclear arsenals and sufficient stocks of all kinds.

At this moment, the voice of Xinghai came from his ears.

"Sir, there have been six earthquakes of magnitude 7 or higher in California, and the super magnetic imaging camera of the Pterodactyl fighter we sent found that the San Andreas fault has collapsed, and a new huge fault is heading south into the Gulf of California."

Du Qiu was taken aback and asked, "Has the sea water poured in?" Project the image onto the conference room on my side. ”

After speaking, he said to the experts at the meeting: "Everyone, the California earthquake in the United States really caused the San Andreas fault to collapse, and this is a live image of the fault over there. ”

A 3D projection appeared above the conference table, clearly showing the entire subsurface rock formation of California, stretching from Old Jinzha in the north to the Gulf of California in the south.

After seeing this image, a group of geological experts were very shocked, the company's technology is too advanced, how to shoot the underground situation so clearly, to know that there is an earthquake there, how is this filmed?

"Our magical technology is really magical, this kind of equipment for photographing underground rock formations, if it can be equipped with our Geological Research Branch, it will be too convenient."

"I think it's a kind of remote sensing technology."

"Don't talk nonsense, can remote sensing photography capture rock formations so clearly?"

……

Hearing the muttering of several experts, Du Qiu was a little amused and said, "This kind of equipment is currently top secret, and it cannot be provided to your research branch for the time being.

Let's get down to business, how far will this newly formed huge fault crack extend underneath? ”

Zhukovsky pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "I can only approximate that, judging from the current width of the new fault, it is very likely that it will extend all the way to Central America." ”

Han Qiang gestured at the image in the 3D projection for a while, and then said with a solemn expression: "I am worried that Costa Rica and Panama in Central America may be affected and sink into the sea, and the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean will be directly connected from then on." ”

Hoffman also nodded and said: "That's right, I'm afraid that Nijiaragua and Salvadole may not be able to be preserved, but Honduras may be uplifted into a huge island." ”

Han Qiang sighed and said, "Mexico may also lose a piece or become a plateau."

This is the first time I have seen such a large fault in my life, and it is already 6,000 kilometers long. ”

Zhukovsky spread his hands and said: "This first fault zone is 6,000 kilometers, I don't know where the second fault zone will appear around the equator, as long as there are more than 4,000 kilometers, the Great Ice Age will not be able to run away." ”

Du Qiu said to everyone: "Everyone, you need to study this matter in depth, and if you have any suggestions that can delay the Great Ice Age, please send me at any time. ”

"Boss, rest assured, our Geological Branch has recently listed this topic as a top priority."
