Chapter 32: The Underground Crystal Island
The temperature of a thousand kilometers underground, about 5,000 degrees Celsius, and the high pressure is a million times that of the surface,
Bai Ge only planned to go a thousand kilometers underground.
All things considered, this depth is the most suitable for both a large amount of high-temperature molten slurry and smaller diamonds and gemstones.
Nearly it is all monolithic ultramafic rock, or orthorhombic pyroxene.
Far away, it is full of fluid and liquid substances, and the deeper you go, the more it must be consumed.
"If you teleport, is 200,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity enough?"
Bai Ge tried it, but the characteristics of arbitrary teleportation in the earth were not enough at all, and there was no response.
"I'll have to go into more detail. ”
"Hmm...... What about random teleportation? I randomly appeared somewhere a thousand kilometers below the surface......"
"The reason for the teleportation, the third step I took on the surface happened to bump into a microscopic wormhole-like existence, which is a cosmic coincidence. ”
Bai Ge didn't know if this setting would work, he just knew to be as realistic as possible.
In the knowledge ingested, there have actually been many strange disappearances on the earth, and even many of them suddenly disappeared in front of outsiders.
Some say it's a wormhole, some say it's a space-time tunnel, and some say it's an alien abduction.
There are many similar records and speculations, but they are basically baseless speculations and media sensational nonsense.
Bai Ge also didn't know if there really were microscopic wormholes in the universe that appeared and disappeared in an instant.
If not, his energy is absolutely not enough to impose this objective law on reality, and this characteristic cannot be realized.
But what if there is? The universe is so vast that, due to some coincidence, a microscopic wormhole that happened to appear on the earth for a few tenths of a second, and then disappeared because of instability.
As long as it is possible, then it is enough, and Bai Ge only needs to take advantage of this possibility.
Let yourself bump into it in this short period of time, and teleport at random.
"There is consumption, 100,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity, is it just that?"
Bai Ge returned to reality and stood in his factory.
There was some excitement in his heart, and some consumption meant that the characteristics were realized.
"This is a very realistic low-consumption that only has random characteristics, and the universe will really spontaneously appear wormholes? No, no, I set the existence of a micro-wormhole, so it can also be something else, in short, it is an unavoidable phenomenon!"
Bai Ge stood on the ground, looking left and right, and didn't find anything abnormal.
He knew he had to take three steps to trigger.
Choosing a direction, Bai Ge took a step and tightened the bow tie around his neck, and his body instantly turned into a black shadow.
Taking another step, he took off his shirt and threw it on the ground.
It wasn't until the third step that a huge force struck, and it was a pulling force that lifted him off the ground in an instant.
There was a sharp pain in all four limbs, and you must know that the black shadow state would weaken the pain, so Bai Ge immediately realized that if he hadn't transformed, he would have been killed by huge pressure at the moment of light teleportation.
The sky swirled, and a flash of 'spherical mirror' appeared on Bai Ge's field of vision, only for a very brief moment, and then there was a strange belt that was both dim and flashing with various reflections.
Severe pain, discomfort, depression, suffocation, a great pain that had never been experienced before.
The feeling of oppression that acts on every cell is continuous, which makes Bai Ge unbearable.
The instant pain during teleportation is a piece of cake compared to this.
In just a few seconds, Bai Ge was about to collapse.
"Calm down!"
After turning on the calm password, Bai Ge barely stabilized his thoughts of hiding in the world of brain holes.
But the calmer he became, the more uncomfortable he became, and he wasn't sure how long he could endure it.
He once fooled the Shadow Man and buried it in the ground, but he didn't expect to feel it now.
"Am I being pressed in stone......?
Bai Ge found that when he teleported down, there was also a stream of gas, which exploded and burned directly around him.
Flames that had been twisted into various shapes appeared around Bai Ge, and these flames formed a white light, thus lighting up countless reflective surfaces around him, and it seemed that the surroundings were constantly flickering.
This is different from the lower mantle he envisioned, where there should be a hot material molten here, how can it be so dim?
Bai Ge tried to wave his hand, and found that he could wave his arm, although the pressure brought a huge sense of condensation, but the surroundings were indeed ......
"Empty?"
Bai Ge had a question mark on his head, and wanted to pull the surrounding matter into his brain, and then see what it was.
"Carbon dioxide? I'm in a cavity?"
As the surroundings became brighter and brighter, Bai Ge finally saw clearly.
"Ahh
From near to far, countless 'mirrors' are reflecting the light, some are reflected on the head, some are under the feet, in all directions, everywhere.
Bai Ge seemed to be in the starry sky, surrounded by dense points of light, which finally made him see the true face of this place.
"Crystal cavity ......"
Around Bai Ge, and even under his feet, countless reflective surfaces were actually spinels one after another.
These spinels look like rock sugar-like crystal blocks, and crystal blocks that are tens or even hundreds of meters high can be seen everywhere.
They are like countless crystal high-rises, towering unevenly.
When you look up, it's all like this, like being in a huge stalactite cave, with countless barbed crystals slanting or straight down.
The scenery is spectacular and magnificent, sparkling under various refractions, and the beauty is extreme.
Spinel is colorful and rich in different elements such as zinc, aluminum, iron, and manganese.
Some are pure blue, some are pure red, some are purple with blue, and some are blue with green.
There are even pink and colorless crystals.
Of course, there are also orange-yellow and brown spinels, which are too many impurities and not crystal clear enough.
"I'm supposed to be in a huge combination crystal block now, and just the empty part in the middle, I feel much bigger than the metropolis!"
"The inner hedron is not melted by the high temperature, so the outside should be extremely thick and insulated from a lot of heat. ”
"If you calculate it this way, the diameter of the entire giant crystal is likely to be the size of one-fifth of HB Province!"
"In other words, I'm now a thousand kilometers underground, in a super crystal that might be as large as HN Island?"
It happened to be a random piece of hedron the size of HN Island, which was also a kind of luck......
In the lower mantle, hot material molten is dominant, and everything becomes liquid, with a high temperature of more than 5,000 degrees.
The main purpose of Bai Ge is those things.
When the heat energy is absorbed in the brain, various crystals or rocks are formed when the temperature of the liquid substance drops.
Even if there was only a little bit of crystal, he could sell it for money.
Even other substances that have cooled down are rare on the surface and are quite valuable.
It can be said that it is a sure way to make a profit and not lose money, so Bai Ge chose a depth of 1,000 kilometers.
However, there are exceptions, and even at this depth, crystals and rocks are not necessarily all molten into molten lava.
Like here.
Although the outside temperature is enough to melt the spar, the problem is that the spar is too big! Spinel has very good heat resistance, which makes the crystals inside it remain solid.
To put it bluntly, this is a crystal island that swims among countless molten lavas.
These super-large crystals are actually insignificant compared to the lower mantle.
But Bai Ge encountered it.
Bai Ge was very helpless, he didn't know if this was his luck too good or too bad.
The molten slurry he wants is not available here, and the brain hole can only collect things that are at the limit of his strength, which means that when he comes here, he will probably not be able to take anything but air!
You must know the surroundings, at a glance, any spinel weighs tens of thousands of tons.
There's no point in taking too much.
"Random and pretty!"
Bai Ge couldn't do nothing, although the random location disrupted his plans.
But the saying that the ground is full of treasures is not an empty word.
The interior of this huge spar also has an environment of at least 2,000 degrees Celsius.
The high temperature of carbon dioxide and even other inert gases in the cavity can also bring heat energy to Bai Ge.
I saw that Bai Ge was constantly absorbing air into his brain, and at the same time walking on the multi-edged crystal.
"This piece weighs at least a few million tons ......"
"That's bigger! It's a crystal mountain......"
"If you get to the surface, you can flatten a city......"
As he walked, Bai Ge saw all kinds of strange huge spinels, all of which were terrifyingly large.
It is impossible to have such a large spinel on the surface, and there are rough and transparent spinels.
Transparent gem-quality spinel is also the world's top gemstone in human society, and it is calculated by carat.
What about here? It's all about tons!
"Huh, it's small!"
Among the many behemoths, there will always be small spinels, such as fragments that have broken from large spinels.
Bai Ge soon discovered many such piles of debris.
Looking up, he could see a hundred-meter-long spinel lying horizontally on several towering stone pillars, and it was obvious that the spinel lying horizontally was once one of the upside-down spars above his head, which fell for some reason and smashed into the spar below, shattering into a small piece of crystal.
These small pieces of crystals, one or two tons, also hundreds of catties.
The smallest one is about a pound.
"I can ingest about 1,000 catties. ”
Bai Ge is now in the state of a black shadow man, and he can lift a weight of five hundred kilograms, so he can put about half a ton of spinel into his brain.
I saw that he was busy for a while, cleaning up a large pile of broken spars around him.
Roughly calculated, he took more than five hundred tons of spinel fragments in total.
"These fragments are also 2,000 degrees Celsius...... Bells, do these spinels and gases have radioactive elements?"
"Nope!"
If you spend a little energy, you can even look inward, so seeing the molecular structure of the microscopic world is just a matter of spending more energy.
What are the elements, at a glance.
In other words, the heat is gone. ”
"I want 5,000 degrees Celsius molten lava! The kind that must have radioactive elements that continue to release energy outward!"
Bai Ge raised his head and looked at the vast countless huge spars.
These hedrons isolated the high-temperature molten slurry outside, trapping Bai Ge here.
"I came here, but I got a containment object, how can I get so little......
"I have to find a way to get out ......"
......
