Chapter 193, the belated hot spring plot
"Oops...... It's really cool to soak in a hot spring after a few days of hard work!"
Long Biao lay almost his entire body in the steaming hot spring, leaving only his head outside, groaning as if he was weak: "It's really hard to work in this ice and snow!"
"Who's to say it's not!" Ken Thirteen, who was also soaking in the hot springs, sighed, "My sister has done experiments, and in the coldest place in the entire Western Continent, even things that are probably oxygen will liquefy. It's also a shame that the temperature here has increased a little, otherwise, except for the races that don't need to breathe, other races won't want to work at all!"
"Such an exaggeration?" Liu Daoqing, who had been closing her eyes and looking like a dead fish, asked curiously, "How did she do this experiment?"
Jian Thirteen rolled his eyes and looked at him with mentally retarded eyes: "Separate the air, and then do experiments by type." ”
“...... What I asked was, how does she separate the air?"
This time, finally even Long Biao couldn't look at it: "Fish pot, how did you learn chemistry in high school?"
"Huh?"
"Question: In a laboratory environment, how to obtain oxygen-based gases and nitrogen-based gases from the air?" Long Biao said, "This is a special question!"
Liu Daoqing opened his mouth and thought hard, and after about two minutes, he closed his eyes in a dejected manner: "I'm sorry, my high school chemistry ...... It seems that they have all been returned to the teacher. ”
"Don't embarrass him. Yunero sighed, "I think that among our group, there are probably only a few people who have not returned this professional knowledge to the teacher." ”
"At least the panda certainly doesn't. ”
"I don't believe it! Panda fights and kills all day long, how can he still remember that!" Liu Daoqing said unconvinced.
So Long Biao shouted to the busy construction site: "Panda! ”
The panda, covered in frost, quickly came over, and because of the heat on the hot spring, the frost on his body melted, and the water was drenched as if he had just taken a bath.
Liu Daoqing repeated the question and asked, "Do you know what to do?"
The panda was stunned for a moment, recalled slightly, and said: "Nitrogen can be removed by burning magnesium strips, and oxygen can be removed by ordinary combustion...... The former feels a bit wasteful, and if you need oxygen, you can get it directly through electrolysis of water, which is more practical. After all, it is not so difficult to make a simple voltaic battery. ”
Liu Daoqing's eyes widened, he looked at the panda in shock, and then shouted: "Impossible! This is definitely not the panda I know! Tell me, where did you come from! Where did you hide the panda!"
The panda sighed helplessly and asked, "Is there anything else?"
"It's gone. ”
So he turned around and went back to the construction site, leaving behind the laughter of everyone in the hot spring and the sad sigh of Liu Daoqing.
The so-called "construction site" is actually a lava lake. The traversers use portals to get here and throw out the lava they collect. The magma melts the snow and ice into water, which is then warmed up – the source of heat for the hot springs.
By using the inventory as a container and the traverser as a means of transportation, they have transported a huge amount of magma, and have formed a huge lava lake in the ice and snow. This magma lake is constantly emitting heat to dissipate the eternal cold of the western continent.
It's been a work in the works for quite some time, but it's only recently that its effects are really reflected in the climate – the massive cold wave is dissipating at a rate visible to the naked eye, and it's certain that it won't be long before it will largely disappear.
Although this method only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. But according to Xingzhao's calculations, as long as everyone continues to work, at least in the next ten years or so, the entire Western Continent will be relatively warm in winter, and there is no need to worry about cold waves or anything.
By the way, there are many travelers who are fighting the cold wave in other ways. For example, Locke and Taiyi, who take "absorption" as the main content, Locke turned his "City of Sinners" into a huge magic array, constantly absorbing the cold wave in the middle of the Great Screen Mountain Range, and changing places every time he absorbs a part, it feels like he is completely in the same place as the cold wave. Tai Yi has been steadily extracting cold qi on the ice field, and she doesn't know how much cold qi she wants to extract?
Of course, the person who is most effective at fighting the cold wave is always Aviin, who is preparing for the cold on a large scale in the orc gathering. Although she had already learned from the chat channel that this cold wave would probably be suppressed by her companions, she did not relax because of this, but hurried more and more to seize the time.
She said: "Take this opportunity to popularize some knowledge of cold protection. In this way, when the next cold wave comes, everyone will have more means to deal with it. ”
This increased her already high prestige again, so much so that when the liger tribes returned to the settlement, they clearly sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere.
In the past, they either came back victoriously and gained everyone's respect and worship, or they returned defeated, reaping everyone's hatred and helplessness.
But this time, they did not gain much (the food they stole from Mulanda was not enough to fill the gap in military rations), they did not die many people (they did not fight any battles), and most importantly, their actions did not make any sense at all in the fight against the Great White Plague.
So the orcs looked at them in a completely different way this time.
It was a very uncomfortable, very unfamiliar, even embarrassing look at them.
How do you explain this look...... It can be roughly understood as "look, those fools are back", "shhhhhh "Are they fools? Running so far and not getting any good or dead...... "Don't use your wisdom to measure fools, you can't make yourself so stupid." ”
Well, roughly, that's it.
Old Ryan had fallen ill because of his continuous anger. At present, he is worried about the issue of the successor, and he has no time to ponder the question of "the opinion of the masses".
Garades is in good health, and he's particularly concerned about it.
When he saw the pair of sneering and suspicious ...... Even with a look of pity, he wanted to jump out and shout: "You dare to look down on me! No one in heaven or on earth can save you!"
But after considering the comparison of each other's strengths, he still gave up honestly.
Forget it, wash and sleep, just bear with it.
In another ten or twenty years, maybe no one will care about this kind of thing.
...... If he had known that this had become a famous joke in orc history, perhaps he would have made a different choice.
