"Solar storm" is not a technical term, solar eruption activity is the origin of solar storm, it is often manifested as two phenomena, one is the flare observed by humans very early, and the other is the solar eruption activity caused by various disturbances in the earth's space environment.

Here, the earth can be compared as a whole, and when the matter and energy ejected by the solar eruption activity reach near-earth space, it will cause strong disturbances in the earth's space environment such as the earth's magnetosphere, ionosphere, and middle and upper atmosphere, which will seriously affect the daily life of human beings.

Humans can see hurricanes approaching with the naked eye, but they can't detect the storm coming. When the matter and energy of the sun's eruption spread and spread invisibly in the vast interplanetary space, human beings can only predict the coming danger through special detection instruments.

Suddenly, there was an unbelievable scene in the whole federation, the city that was still lit up at night fell into quiet darkness without warning, but fortunately, this situation only lasted for a few minutes, the neon on the side of the road, the colorful lights on the street once again glowed with bright light sources, and the crowd slowly calmed down from the panic.

"The wind and rain are coming, this is ...... Is there calm before the storm? ”

Yang Lei stood alone under the starry sky, looking at the gorgeous aurora on the edge of the sky, and he didn't know what he was muttering, but it was undeniable that just after the whole world fell into a death-like silence, the boundless darkness began to erode people's hearts, and he was no exception.

Darkness is always the most terrifying element in this world.

When the global power returned to normal, the political heads of various countries urgently convened the parliament and began to discuss countermeasures and measures to appease the people, but what surprised Yang Lei was that on the media screen of the Chinese Congress, Yang Lei failed to find Dongfang Shuo's figure from beginning to end, and his mind couldn't help but become confused.

At this time, Alaska, located at the northwestern tip of the North American continent, is playing out such a scene.

The ever-changing super electric light show is enough to make countless photographers go completely crazy, the gorgeous red-purple, unimpurified cyan, from a distance, seems to rise from the ground, boundless, whether it is in the cape or the end of the world, it looks graceful and mysterious against the background of glaciers and snow-capped mountains.

Surrounded on three sides by the Arctic Ocean, the Bering Strait and the North Pacific Ocean, Alaska is home to 17 of the 20 highest mountain ranges in the entire American Empire, and most of the world's active glaciers are also concentrated in its territory, with temperatures averaging around zero to 15 degrees Celsius throughout the year, reaching as high as 26 degrees Celsius during the polar day in the summer and as low as minus 15 degrees Celsius during the polar night in winter.

It can be said that it is this special geographical environment and temperature difference that has created Alaska's good name.

Here all year round is the same as the ice age in the movie, once, Yang Lei browsed various photos of the aurora in Alaska on the Internet, it is said that on this planet, Alaska is the best place to observe the aurora, there is no one!

Yang Lei has never been to that distant place, but now, as long as he looks up slightly in Huaxia, he can clearly see that shocking picture, which is even more shocking than in the photo.

In nature, Yang Lei believes that there is no phenomenon comparable to it.

The diverse, colorful, shapely, and beautiful Alaskan Aurora is slowly changing at a speed visible to the naked eye, like fireworks in a festival, suddenly disappearing in the air, disappearing without a trace, and suddenly lighting up on the other side, like a huge light curtain reflecting the entire sky.

Soon, Yang Lei found that with the different distances, the color of the aurora will also change slightly, from far to near, some are silvery-white like cotton wool floating, some are grass blue, like a bunch of green silk, very light, and some show a reddish, light green hue, like a huge colored silk or ribbon thrown into the sky, constantly flying up and down, extremely bright, even the brilliance of the stars and the moon is overshadowed in front of it.

I am afraid that even the most famous painter of the Federation will find it difficult to paint this unpredictable dazzling light with the brush in his hand at this time.

In the American Empire, at the Open Congress, Loclereen, the former head of the five speakers, was preparing to take the stage to speak.

The American Empire, which is now suffering from the Pacific War, encounters tonight's aurora night, undoubtedly, like adding fuel to the fire, causing a lot of panic in the hearts of citizens, and almost all American citizens on the streets of all sizes have run out of their homes, looking at the light in front of them in this cold night, and they all set their eyes on the LED light curtain of the triangular building.

"Good evening, dear gentlemen and gentlemen, I am Wren." In order to appease the people, the old Wren, who is nearly fifty years old, had to get up from the bed, and if you look closely, you will find that Wren, who is now standing in front of the media camera, has a few small wrinkles on his forehead.

I saw him clear his throat and speak word by word in a magnetic voice: "Unlike in the past, tonight is destined to be a night that most people can't sleep, especially the citizens of our American Empire, here, I want to express my deep apologies to you, because of my dereliction of duty, I forced you to stand on the street and listen to me in the middle of the night, ...... hard work."

With a deep ninety-degree bow after Wren Sr. bent down, some veterans who had survived the Storm War couldn't help but burst into tears as they looked at this great man who had dominated the entire Federation, including most American citizens.

"Just now, due to the increased geomagnetic radiation at the time of the flare eruption reaching our planet at the speed of light, the ionosphere was suddenly disturbed, causing up to eight minutes of darkness, and not only that, but our shortwave communication environment was also weakened by signals to varying degrees, although the time was only eight minutes, but I think, including me, these eight minutes are also the longest eight minutes experienced by the entire federal citizen."

After a pause, Wren raised his right hand and gestured to the camera: "Before the convening of the Congress, my secretary general gave me such a speech, and in this article, the rhetoric is very ornate and the rhetoric is also appropriate, but I still chose to leave the script. ”

"Because there is no mention of any new situation in the Pacific War, nor does it explain the strange sight that has suddenly occurred tonight, it ...... He was destined to be nothing more than a failed manuscript. Nodding, Wren continued: "I know that the reason for this may be to make me as less scolded by the citizens as possible, or it may be to avoid the public opinion of the media, but what I want to say is that both citizens and the media have the right to know, especially at this time, even if I am scolded by everyone, I must tell you the matter, because this is your responsibility!" ”

"I declare that as of today, my Secretary-General, Mr. Green, am sorry...... I would like to ask you to take a one-year leave of absence, and think calmly about what kind of attitude you should have towards the citizens of the empire as an official. ”

In front of everyone, Wren said such a thing, which undoubtedly disgraced the face of Mr. Green, who did not speak excessively, but after getting up from his seat, he pushed down the chair and walked out of the council hall with a blushing face.

Standing in the spotlight of media reporters, Wren made a gesture of spreading his hands without losing his grace, and said: "I want to tell you a very unfortunate news, that is, ...... The war is getting worse, and the fire lines we have built up on the Pacific coast this morning have been broken by the fleet of the U.S. Empire once again, but fortunately, with the assistance of the United States, our front-line soldiers have not allowed them to advance even a single step and continue to trample on our territory. ”

"However, what is before us now is something even more terrible than the Pacific War, and that is the coming of the storm!" (To be continued.) )
