Extraten, the only one in the world

Extraten, the only one in the world

"Future Water World" is a relatively antique science fiction film, filmed at the end of the twentieth century. The background is that the future earth has somehow become an ocean, all 6 places have been submerged by the sea, and the few surviving human beings can only rely on the remains of the old era and survive by fishing at sea. Among them, the settlers who used broken ships, floating docks, and metal boxes to build floating island towns were equivalent to the agricultural people of the maritime age; There are "sea walkers" who drive small boats alone, which are equivalent to nomads in the ocean age; Then there are the bands of pirates who do not produce and make a living by plundering and killing.

Although I have long forgotten what the 6 places look like, among the remnants of the human beings in the water world, there are still legends about the 6 places somewhere. As a result, the protagonist of the movie, a male mutant with cheeks, Seawalker, is involved in a journey to find 6 places because of a series of accidents. Through various adventures and several fights with murderous pirates, he finally found the latitude and longitude coordinates of 6 places from the Japanese tattoo on the back of a little girl, so he took his girlfriend and companions to Mount Everest, which has become an island, in a balloon and started a new life...... However, due to the chaotic entry of Wang Qiu and others, their balloons have just been blown up by anti-aircraft guns, and the protagonist and his party can only go to heaven to start a new life.

However, for Wang Qiu, who is suspected of having traveled to "Future Water World", all these plots are not important, the real key is that according to the background setting of the movie, the island under his feet, which is only more than 50 square kilometers, is probably the only 6 places in the world!

- Mount Everest has become a small hill only 400 meters above sea level, what other 6 places in the world can be exposed to the water?

Therefore, in a sense, since the moment Wang Qiu crossed over, it was equivalent to successfully conquering the world!

Alas, how can you break it when you suddenly become the master of the world without preparation, and suddenly feel completely out of motivation?

However, it seems that it is a bit too early to draw conclusions, and we should try to confirm them first......

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

A few hours later, the [Mini Reconnaissance Satellite] launched from the roof of the villa completely confirmed Wang Qiu's above speculation.

In the photos transmitted by the satellite, the earth has completely turned into a large blue balloon, all the outlines of the big 6 have disappeared, and the snow-white ice caps of the north and south poles have melted. The only solid 6 places in the world that can be exposed to the sea are the only islands at the foot of Wang Qiu, formerly known as Mount Everest, located at 27 degrees 59 minutes north latitude and 86 degrees 55 minutes east longitude.

- Well, at most a few reefs that are submerged at high tide and exposed at low tide.

Although from a scientific point of view, even if the ice and snow at the poles of the earth melt, the sea level cannot rise by as much as 8,000 meters, and the rise of a few tens of meters is already the limit...... But this is the world of cinema, and even the earth must obey the setting of Mr. Screenwriter. So, the 6 lands disappeared from the earth, and the once colorful earth became a real blue star. And human civilization, which has not yet had time to enter the space age, has naturally been completely buried under the deep ocean, leaving only a little residue floating on the surface of the sea.

Of course, although this uninhabited island is the only six places in the world, humanity has not completely disappeared. Far more vast than ever, there are still a dozen floating island towns of various sizes scattered around, and hundreds of "seawalker" boats roaming around. But all the floating island towns are located in the equatorial windless belt between the north and south of the equator, at least two or three thousand kilometers away from Wang Qiu's side. Even the "sea walkers" who run the gang in small boats and the pirates who make a living by robbing them are basically only active in the windless zone of the equator.

This is so because although the vast ocean is boundless, not every body of water is suitable for habitation. After the loss of 6 lands, the remaining human floating cities and ships have no safe haven, but these things made of drifting garbage and scrap copper and rotten iron are far less resistant to wind and waves than the regular sea ships of the old days. In the event of a typhoon or other strong winds and waves, it is almost certain death.

Therefore, they did not dare to leave the equatorial windless zone, which is always calm and the sea conditions are pleasant, and there are basically no storms.

In addition, the equatorial region has high temperatures all year round, with very little temperature difference, which is obviously more suitable for survival for the remnants of the water world, who are desperately short of warm clothing and heating fuel. Even better, the equatorial windless zone receives abundant and evenly distributed rainfall, rarely without rain for long periods of time, providing a steady and abundant natural freshwater for the inhabitants of the sea, allowing them to grow small amounts of fruits and vegetables on the floating islands to replenish the vitamins and other nutrients needed by the human body.

And once they leave the equatorial windless zone, they have to face terrifying storms and waves, unbearable cold, and thirst caused by the lack of rain for a long time, and every danger is so deadly...... It is no wonder that they have been staying in the relatively comfortable cradle of the sea in the windless equatorial belt, so that they have not been able to find the last six places of Mount Everest.

But even so, these people at sea in the equatorial windless zone are only barely surviving, barely delaying the time of destruction.

This is because human beings themselves are a kind of creatures that are not adapted to the ocean. What's even worse is that the survivors of the catastrophe have greatly regressed in their level of civilization, and the steel ships and floating islands that are their last living space are just the legacy of the old era, and the remnants of the human group themselves do not have the ability to extract ores, smelt metals, and make floating objects from the bottom of the sea, they are just struggling to survive on the remains of the civilization of the 6 places.

However, over time, these legacies of the old times will eventually rust and age, and then disintegrate and sink one by one. Where are these human beings going to live? Could it be that it can evolve or mutate into a mermaid over several generations, and then jump into the sea to cover the Dragon Palace?

Even the male protagonist of "Future Water World", the mutant who has gills behind his ears and can breathe underwater, can't live in the sea completely like whales, but must drink fresh water and eat fruits and vegetables to replenish vitamins. Once the ship is completely lost, there is no way to live.

Not to mention the last few humans adrift on the sea, who are still fighting and destroying what little living space they have left.

- The bleak future of human beings at sea is also reflected in the plot of "Future Water World". The pirate boss who is the villain once lamented that in the past, there was a floating city that could be found on any level that could be robbed, but now it is difficult to find a decent target. And his minions replied that a considerable part of the floating cities were sunk by the order of the boss, and the rest of the floating cities that disappeared did not know what was going on......

It can be seen that in a few decades to a hundred years at most, these last remnants of human civilization will inevitably be gradually swallowed up by the sea.

However, Wang Qiu, who lacked empathy, first thought of how to conquer or save this world that was heading for destruction, but another more realistic problem, "...... In that case, Sister Shizuka, Sister Rika, as well as Hansel and Gretel, we must organize the move as soon as possible! This island is not in the equatorial windless zone, so it's really not safe to live directly on the beach, and God knows when the next typhoon will come! ”

“…… Uh, I said, dear little Qiuqiu, before we move to escape the typhoon, should we give this island a name? ”

Shizuka Jukawa suddenly smiled and raised her hand and proposed, "...... According to the Bible, human beings first lived in the Garden of Eden. And the island under our feet is currently the only 6 places in the world. In that case, how about naming it Eden Island? ”

Eden Island? Sounds like something?

Wang Qiu thought so, and at the same time raised his head, and immediately saw the clear stream, verdant grass and trees and gorgeous flowers outside the window.

- Yes, compared to the strange, rusty, filthy and tattered steel floating cities shown in the satellite photos, this beautiful garden-like island is indeed the only Garden of Eden in the last days.

“…… Well, Sister Shizuka's idea is good, let's call it Eden Island! ”
