Chapter 158: Ionized Lake
As Europa rotates, the wormhole remains at the closest point to the Sun at Europa's equator, where it receives the highest intensity of sunlight and the greatest depth of ocean melting.
However, Ye Chen still felt that the current flow rate of water was very slow, and if he continued like this, if he wanted to irrigate the water source needed by the entire Mars, he didn't know that he would have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.
As a last resort, Ye Chen had to expand the area covered by the wormhole again, the width of the oval wormhole always increases with the length, when the total length of the oval wormhole reaches 50,000 meters, the depth also reaches nearly 2,500 meters, this depth has far exceeded the depth of the ice melting, and it reaches the ice.
Fortunately, Europa's ice is tens of kilometers thick, and this depth is not enough to reach Europa's mysterious liquid ocean. In this way, only a small part of the water flow passed through the wormhole, and most of the rest were thick ice blocks, and a huge layer of ice was directly thrown by Ye Chen onto the surface of Mars, believing that through the sunlight and temperature of Mars, it would gradually melt away.
After almost thirteen hours, Europa had already rotated in a full circle at this time, and under the thick ice, a huge ocean trench with a depth of five thousand meters and a length around Europa had been cut, and the turbulent sea water poured from the side, pouring into the trench, and under the huge wormhole created by Ye Chen, it frantically poured into the wormhole and entered the surface of Mars.
On top of the Vulcan body, a long mountain range of giant broken ice blocks also appeared strangely at this time, but this iceberg lies above the Martian equator and cannot be preserved forever, and it will not be long before it will turn into a member of the surrounding water and form part of the Martian ocean.
Finally, after the crumbling icebergs spread out a long track, no new ice finally appeared, and the bubbling clear, icy waters appeared. Like a raging tsunami, it rushed into the surface of the earth and began to spread towards the low-lying areas of Mars.
After more than ten hours of water irrigation, endless water vapor also continued to condense in the new atmosphere of Mars, and finally converged into the first storm of the birth of a new Mars, dark clouds covered most of Mars, and accompanied by countless thick lightning, roaring out.
The rolling rain continued to fall, and with the fierce winds, the thick smoke and dust in the Martian atmosphere sank to the ground after being washed by the rain. The air has become cleaner, and it no longer feels like it used to be full of smoke and dust.
The boiling sea water in the wormhole is constantly surging out, setting off layers of stormy waves on Mars, and the endless water currents converge on the low-lying surface to form small lakes, and the lakes are still growing, or it will not be long before they converge into a whole vast sea.
However, in Ye Chen's opinion, Mars at this time does not need to form too vast an ocean. Otherwise, the land area will be squeezed very small. And although the land of Mars is cratered, it does not have a very obvious large low-lying area like the Earth, but towards the Moon. Low-lying land and towering land crisscross the country.
After four days of seawater infusion, the surface of Mars has also been covered with huge lakes, numbering tens of thousands. These lakes reach deep into the land and spread across the globe. As a result, the Martian environment greatly reduces the risk of floods and droughts, and keeps the world in a mild and humid climate.
At this point, Ye Chen had already achieved his goal. It doesn't have to be like Mars anymore to expand the waters.
Closing the wormhole connecting the two planets, Ye Chen returned to Mars. From high in the sky, the atmosphere of Mars is no longer as foggy as before, but has become clean and clear. On the red ground, lakes are dotted like mirrors, giving the newborn Mars a different kind of beauty.
Returning to the Zod spaceship, Ye Chen smiled at Zod, who still had a serious face: "The problem of the water source has been solved, let's start electrolyzing it." ”
"Good!" With a rare curl of his mouth, Zod turned to Fura and shouted, "Find a large lake and prepare to electrolyze water to produce oxygen." ”
"Yes!" Fura piloted the spaceship and landed on a vast lake. Then, a black pipe appeared above the ship, stretching high into the sky.
"What is this?" Ye Chen asked suspiciously.
"The exhaust pipe, made of a special material, is extremely thin, yet extremely stiff. It will stretch into outer space to a point where the angular velocity of the port can escape the gravitational pull of Mars, and the extra hydrogen produced during the electrolysis of water will be expelled from Mars through this pipeline. ”
Ye Chen finally understood that the thin pipe that Zod and they stretched out from the spacecraft was similar to the space elevator, which was to extend the pipe out of the surface of Mars for nearly 100 kilometers, and then the centrifugal force of Mars' rotation would be greater than the gravitational force of Mars, so that the ionized hydrogen would never be able to return to Mars and float in the universe forever. If this is not done, the ionized oxygen and hydrogen gas will react again, burn violently in the atmosphere, and return to the original state of water.
Soon, the exhaust pipe quickly stretched out into space, and finally reached the height beyond the Martian atmosphere, which was in line with the request.
"General, the exhaust pipe is ready!" Fura asked Zod for instructions.
"Ghost Engine ready, start ionizing!"
"Yes!" Fura agreed, pressing the launch button in front of the control instrument in front of her, and in an instant, a bright white light shot towards the surface of the lake.
Powerful energy was poured into it, and the originally calm surface of the lake suddenly tumbled, as if boiling. Ye Chen noticed that the billowing bubbles surged out from the bottom of the lake and entered the air. And within the pillar of light, a strong air flow surged upwards wildly, this is the hydrogen that has been ionized, and the bubbles on the surface of the lake should be pure oxygen.
Ye Chen also didn't know how Zode and the others were able to ionize a large area of lake water, but also quickly and without a trace to release oxygen and hydrogen to the right place.
"Increase the ionization rate!"
Zode gave an order, and the intense white light was even more dazzling at this time, Ye Chen seemed to be able to hear the sharp roar coming from the top of the spaceship engine, I am afraid that at this time, the world engine has begun to run at full capacity.
The water above the lake boiled even more violently, and at the same time, the water level began to lower rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the endless oxygen emission spread out to the whole world in the Martian atmosphere.
Three hours later, the entire lake was depleted, and Zod and the others began to make their way to the next lake. (To be continued......)
