Chapter 19: Sea Levels Continue to Rise!

After the cataclysm, the global sea level has risen, and various major natural disasters on the earth have become more and more frequent, and the degree of disaster has also deepened!

For example, the southeast coastal zone of our country will often be hit by typhoons before the cataclysm, but the number of times is limited.

After the cataclysm, typhoons have become commonplace, and since it is August of the summer vacation, typhoons have become frequent visitors, and the level of typhoons has also been continuously upgraded!

Before the cataclysm, typhoons of magnitude 12 and 13 were already terrifying, but after the cataclysm, magnitude 14 and 15 were commonplace, and magnitude 16 and 17 were also often seen!

For example, this "Bailu" typhoon is a super typhoon of magnitude 16!

How did the typhoon come about?

When the ocean is full of heat (the temperature exceeds 26.5 degrees Celsius), the water vapor begins to expand and rise, the sea surface pressure decreases, and new air is added and rises with it.

This cycle, under the action of geostrophic deflection forces, forms a counterclockwise vortex in the Northern Hemisphere, the scientific name of which is a tropical cyclone.

As long as there is energy supply, this cyclone will become stronger and stronger until the wind speed at the center exceeds 32.7 m/s, which is called a typhoon!

Typhoons are a devastating weather system that can cause huge waves over the ocean, and if they make landfall, they can cause huge property damage and even casualties, comparable to an earthquake!

Due to the rise of 66 meters in the sea and the proximity of the Yunfu base to the ocean, the entire Yunfu base will be strongly hit by the "Bailu" typhoon!

In order to protect the safety of the population, all ordinary people will enter the underground shelter.

However, just as the so-called sword can injure itself or kill the enemy, everything has two sides!

The same is true of a post-cataclysmic typhoon!

The arrival of a typhoon and a tsunami may be a disaster for ordinary people, but for warriors and superpowers, it is a rare experience and a gift from nature!

In normal times, Terran warriors or superpowers, before their own cultivation has reached level 4, that is, level 40, ordinary warriors and superpowers dare not go to the sea at will!

At this time, their strength was not enough, and they did not have the ability to survive independently in the vast ocean.

However, when a typhoon came, the sea water briefly flooded the earth, but it gave martial artists and superpowers below level 40 a chance to duel with these mutant beasts in the ocean on the submerged land!

This is also the reason why everyone was so excited as soon as Sima Nan announced that the typhoon was coming!

It is also the reason why Huang Dao is excited and can't wait to agree to Sima Nan!

Go to the front line and bravely fight with mutant beasts, this is the concept that the school has always instilled and taught them!

Moreover, the more advanced the mutant beast, the more treasures are on its body, all kinds of fish skins, fish scales, fish bones, beast crystals, and even the internal organs and water of mutant beasts, all of which can be sold for a lot of money!

Nowadays, they are all freshmen at the freshman level, and it is the age of rapid growth in strength, and actively participating in battles can better stimulate their potential and level up quickly!

Moreover, the defeated mutant beasts can also be sold for money, or subsidize the household or buy Qi and Blood Pills and Spirit Power Pills, which are all very useful!

As soon as Sima Nan announced the good news of the upcoming typhoon "Bailu", many students immediately ran home excitedly one by one, making all kinds of preparations before the battle, and preparing for a good battle!

After he himself said these two words, his feet lightly touched the ground, and he turned into an afterimage, and quickly disappeared!

"Let's go!" Huang Dao was also excited, dragging the climbing perch behind him and walking towards home quickly.

"Within this week, I must break through level 10 and become a first-order martial artist, and then perform well in the typhoon wave in a week!" Huang Dao said to Wang Xiaomi's eyes sparkling.

Now all the attribute values and skills on his body require a lot of energy to improve every time he upgrades!

Ordinary low-level mutant beasts can no longer support the ecliptic upgrade!

For example, the mutated grass carp, mutated herring fish, etc. in his restaurant, it only takes dozens of points of energy to slaughter one, how many heads does he have to kill to upgrade?

Therefore, if you want to level up faster and higher, kill more advanced mutant beasts with more energy, it is a wise choice!

And Huang Dao also found that since she upgraded several skills to level 1, the explosion rate of various skill fragments has become lower and lower!

For example, the scale armor skill, before killing piranhas, climbing perch, etc., the explosion rate is still about 30%, but when it is upgraded to the first level, this explosion rate immediately plummets, less than 10%!

Huang Dao immediately understood that this was because the level of the skill had increased, and the low-level mutant beasts had no way to support this upgrade!

Therefore, this also forces the zodiac to kill more advanced mutant beasts, and it doesn't make much sense to continue to bully some mutant beasts that only have a few levels!

Also, there is still a week before Typhoon "Bailu" hits, and the zodiac is also preparing to take advantage of this to break through to level 10 as soon as possible and become a real warrior!

“OK!” Hearing this, Wang Xiaomi's strong muscles on his arms were also excitedly raised, and his eyes lit up: "Now that you are also strong, then our two brothers can fight side by side together again to slay demons and demons!" ”

"Okay," Huang Dao nodded, and replied, "Then brother, I will reluctantly take you to fight the little monster together!" ”

Wang Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes wildly: "Little Huangzi, you are very inflated today!" ”

"You dare to call me a little yellow man, I don't think you want to eat sauerkraut fish tonight?" Zodiac squinted his eyes and said with a naked threat.

"Uh......" Poor Wang Xiaomi surrendered instantly!

……

The southeast urban area of the Yunfu base is adjacent to the ocean, and at a glance, there is a vast and rolling wave.

If it was before the catastrophe, this large sea-view house in the southeast city could be sold for 100,000 square meters, which was extremely rich and luxurious!

But now, it's empty, overgrown with grass and empty houses!

Two figures appeared out of thin air, falling from the sky and descending onto a sea lighthouse near the coast.

Take a closer look, the two are Sima Nan and the old principal Cheng Yishan.

As soon as the two appeared, they immediately couldn't help but look at the carved pillar of the lighthouse tower, only to see that the mark marked the height of the sea water in the previous month had been completely submerged by the sea water at this time!

The old principal immediately sighed: "This is the 8th flooded lighthouse, and sure enough, not only our Guangdong Province, but also the sea level of the whole country and the world has risen again!" ”

"Today, the global sea level has risen by a total of 67 meters!"

"Oh my God, this ...... How is this possible!! ”

Sima Nan also frowned when he looked at this scene, looking very dignified, and didn't say a word!

If you are an ordinary person here, you may be very puzzled to see this scene!

After all, after the cataclysm, the global sea level has risen by 66 meters, and now it has risen by another 1 meter, is there a difference?

Yes, and that's a big difference!

Before the cataclysm, scientists had already measured the amount of ice in the North and South Poles through satellites and various measurement tools.

The resulting data shows that if all the ice in the Arctic melted, global sea level would rise by 6 metres, and the Antarctic would melt by 60 metres!

If the two melt together, then the global sea level will rise by 66 meters!

This is also the reason why our human society on the earth has not collapsed today, because no matter how the ice and snow at the poles melt, the height of sea level rise is always limited, and it will only submerge some low areas along the coast, although these low areas are very rich!

But now, the global sea level continues to rise, and the implications are complicated!

First of all, where does the extra 1 meter of sea water come from?

And will the sea level continue to rise?

If it continues to rise, how high will it rise?

Will it flood the remaining land?

These are scary details!
