Chapter 136: The Power of Great Will
"Actually, the time you saw me in the crater was after we detected that the Earth was about to undergo a cataclysm. The Earth's interior has been under tremendous pressure until now. ”
Ada said, using the air conditioner to pull out a panel showing a few simple graphics.
Although Qiao Hua couldn't understand the text above, he was able to roughly understand some of the situation under Ida's introduction and the trend of the broken line above.
The pressure in the Earth's interior has changed since four years ago, the temperature of the Earth's core has continued to rise, and the crust has begun to produce localized activity, with frequent volcanoes and earthquakes.
The time Qiao Hua met Ida in the crater, if the interior of the volcano continued to increase pressure and was not released, it would have accumulated over a long period of time and would have led to a huge eruption. When the time comes, the thick volcanic ash will obscure a large part of the Earth's sky, causing countless animals to die from poisoning or lack of oxygen.
"Although the crisis has been resolved, the decompression effect on the entire interior of the planet has been limited. The temperature and pressure in the Earth's core are still increasing, and they have now broken through the critical value. ”
As she spoke, Ada pulled up another hologram, which was clearly from a memory storage device, with a low viewing angle.
The earth trembled violently, and trees fell in all directions. At the same time, a huge crack began to crack at the point where the view was, leading to the infinite abyss at the lower end.
Immediately afterward, the hologram's perspective began to shift, this time at the top of a high mountain.
After a strong tremor, snow poured down from the entire summit and slammed down on the trees halfway up the mountain. The originally verdant place was instantly covered in snow. On the other side of the mountain, the loess began to crack. Many stones rolled down, crushing the mountain one after another, kicking up a large area of thick smoke and dust.
"How big is the scope of this earthquake?" Qiao Hua couldn't help but ask. He found that the second scene was clearly not tropical or subtropical, but rather like somewhere in the temperate zone.
"The entire surface of the Earth has experienced an earthquake, but the further you go to the poles, the intensity of the oscillation becomes. Moreover, the part of the earth's crust that is stable is also less affected. If this burst of energy lasts longer, the entire planet will probably disintegrate as a result. ”
Qiao Hua couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
"But don't worry about it now," Ida said, "under the control of gravity and the original structure of the planet, this short-term earthquake did not have a devastating effect. In addition, the great will of the earth has already taken a series of measures to prevent the disintegration of the planet. ”
Ada paused suddenly. He added: "Of course, it may be possible that this small catastrophe is the product of the influence of the great will of the earth. ”
Qiao Hua was stunned: "You mean to say that it is possible that Gaia's will has caused such a result?" ”
"That's right. If it is not the great will of the earth, it is a higher will. Depending on the perpetrators, the purpose of triggering this disaster will be different. Ida explained.
The dwarf tyrannosaurus wagged its tail unconsciously. I pondered the meaning of this alien woman's words.
If Gaia's will is at work, then its purpose is naturally to maintain the stability of the earth's ecological environment, even if the method used is to create disasters.
However, if it is a greater will than the earth that has a role, then the purpose of that great will may not be so simple. It is likely that the development of the earth has had an impact on this great will, so it is deliberately intended to destroy the earth.
"Squeak-"
The kernel began to nap after hitting the spaceship, but at this time, it suddenly seemed to be doping, and his eyes instantly widened.
Actually, you don't need this little squirrel to remind you. Qiao Hua had already used his keen nose to smell something that was enough to make his stomach flutter. The dwarf tyrannosaurus and the baby squirrel turned around at the same time, and found that Crick, the star dog, had just walked back from another door, with a strange object in his mouth.
I don't know what it is, but it's definitely something that can be eaten.
"The hosts. Why is there so much dried fish in our spaceship ration this time, and I don't have any meat that I like to eat. Next time, I'm going to tell the rationing department—"
Creek, the star dog, wagged his tail and trotted towards Ada, a "whining" sound coming out of his throat.
But when it looked at Qiao Hua and the fruit core, who were covered in mud, it couldn't help but slow down in confusion.
At this time, both the dwarf tyrannosaurus and the baby squirrel were staring at the contents of Crick's mouth. Qiao Hua could barely control it, but the kernel was very hungry. Instinct as an animal has prevailed.
"Squeak-"
The pits had jumped from place to Creek's side.
Immediately, when the big dog had not yet figured out the intentions of the pit. The little squirrel suddenly jumped to its feet and struck the other end of the strip of dried fish in its mouth with great accuracy.
Because the pit behaves too suddenly and without warning. Even Creek, who reacts extremely quickly, was hit.
"Wang!"
The fur on the big dog's head instinctively exploded and screamed.
The moment his mouth opened, Crick was like a crow deceived by a fox, and all the dried fish in his mouth entered the kernel's mouth in an instant.
"Crunch!"
It can be seen that the dried fish is still quite chewy when biting.
Probably satisfied with what it had eaten, the little squirrel suddenly shook the mud from its body vigorously under the gaze of the other three creatures.
“……”
Crick didn't expect that as one of the most intelligent species on the planet Gliese, he was first snatched food from his mouth by a little squirrel without intelligence today, and then he was inexplicably thrown off in the mud, which is a great irony.
To Qiao Hua's surprise, this alien dog has a high level of self-cultivation. Although he looked a little unhappy, he didn't do anything aggressive towards the little squirrel.
"Wang—I think it's safer to open the protective shield on your body next time you eat." The big dog looked at the pit that was eating with relish next to him, and muttered to himself in embarrassment, and then returned to Ada's side in a huff.
Qiao Hua's gaze withdrew from the core of the fruit and looked at Ada: "I remember that you seemed to say that you were going to the Centaur Galaxy, why did you come back so soon?" ”
"Wang—because there are some problems with our ship's teleporter, and it will take some time to fix it." Crick hastened to explain.
The big dog talked about the teleportation device, which made Qiao Hua think of the blue vortex beneath the black lid.
"The teleporter you're talking about...... Can you show me? Qiao Hua couldn't help but say. (To be continued)
