Out of the cage

At the end of 157, while the sulfur-iron basalt in the east was weakened by "scientific and sustainable", on the west line, the waterway into Bashu was also opened up. Combined with the route from Yunnan to Shu, this area that was cut off by human communities for several years began The colony of "Mirage Fungus" was completely wiped out.

Before destroying the human settlements in the Bashu area, this thing was named the "mother of the disease" by local scientists. However, because the human settlements in the area were surrounded and destroyed by it, this naming information was not conveyed. It was not until today that the unified expedition army re-entered the area and saw the records left by people at that time on the walls of the ruined city, and then picked up the name again.

~

Bashu was known as the Land of Abundance in the human age, but this is a scene of abundance after humans have completely controlled the ecology of the place.

The climate here is "wet" and "more cloudy". People who have been accustomed to the hot summer and cold winter of the Jianghuai River all year round, with wide variations in temperature and wind direction, will feel stuffy when they come to Shu.

As the unified logging area entered the Bashu Basin, Wei Keng and other personnel immediately felt that this basin was simply a big petri dish.

In an environment with no wind, high humidity, suitable temperature, and abundant water, the plants here grow wildly.

After careful inspection, it was found that the vegetation in the ecology here is similar to a kind of fighting beast chess environment, and has a peculiar ecological rotation.

Herbaceous plants overgrow an area and are replaced within a few years by larger shrubs. Larger shrubs become entangled with thorny climbing vines after several years of growth. After being covered by this poison ivy, the shrub collapsed, and then after the winter snowfall, all the leaves of this shrub vine fell off, exposing the sun. In the spring of the second year, when the climbing vines have not yet grown leaves, a large number of fast-germinating herbs will take the lead and seize the sun market. Then there is a new round of shrub replacement and climbing vine replacement.

In this round of replacement, various beetles and small animals also migrate back and forth.

Of course, the more important thing is that the hundred-year-long vegetation rotation has accumulated thick humus. Any piece of wasteland that is dug down is a piece of "peat" that has not yet been accumulated.

After the bulldozers in the unified logging area pushed away the vines and vegetation on the road, they found that the accumulation layer of vegetation that had not completely decayed was half a meter thick covering the mottled roadbed!

Such a thick layer of humus exists and is the basis for decomposers.

The decomposers here can only use up part of the withered vegetation and vines organic matter each year, and the remaining part is covered up, and the decomposition stops in an oxygen-deficient environment and becomes deep. But this is equivalent to a "deposit". Even if all the surface vegetation is burned, the decomposers under the ashes still have the property to continue to be crazy.

~

And the community of these decomposers is the mother of all diseases.

To be precise, they specialize in the branch of the virus subclass that "Mirage Mother" spreads.

Since the appearance of Pandora, all life has entered a great evolution, please pay attention to life!

Viruses belong to half-life, that is, they can replicate and reproduce themselves in the host body, so they belong to organisms. When they are separated from the host and stop the replication of organic matter, they are not organisms.

Under normal circumstances, in Pandora Field, the metabolism of normal life has a radiation effect, and weak life such as bacteria will seek symbiosis under radiation, and viruses have no capital to go crazy.

But this world has exceptions.

After the Pandora field covered Southeast Asia, the slime mold decomposers retained the ability of viruses when trying to kill animals such as worms.

They also keep rotting while growing, and will utilitarianly record some "dna" protein structures that can kill animals, and then during catabolism, these virus structures will drop from the genetic structure, becoming a "biological weapon" that attacks large organisms ".

~

The mother of disease is entrenched in the puddles of the Bashu Basin. There are a lot of mud pits here. Any life near these mud pits will be inexplicably infected by the virus.

In such a vast land of abundance, apart from plants that grow periodically, there are only various small insects and short-lived small animals, without any large animals.

~

After entering the third day, the soldiers of the commanding army developed various infections, blisters appeared on the skin, or phlegm appeared in the oral mucosa. After suffering from these dry diseases, non-Wei Keng comrades in the unified logging area could only leave this area by train.

The three large-scale pioneering teams in the unified logging area were very attrition. In April 158 of the Pandora calendar,

Near the Dujiangyan site, Huang Jingfei is inspecting the Rogia system. This is already the third Rogia that fell this month.

In addition to the sudden death of Rogia, there are still a large number of injured Rogia who have to board the ship and be transported to the rear every month.

Similarly, many scouting cats fell ill and died, and the breeding armor was seriously damaged. Humans have completely lost all power in the area except machinery.

In the era of Pandora, although the damage and infectivity of the virus have been reduced to a very low level. As long as you leave the Bashu Basin and return to the human population, the disease will be cured and there will be corresponding antibodies.

However, if you enter the Bashu area again, you will be infected with new diseases.

The speed at which large organisms produce antibodies cannot be compared with the speed at which the mother of all diseases creates viruses.

If human beings try to continue to fight on the road of "fighting antibodies" that has not been won in the era of species. That is ignoring the fact that you have brains.

Now Taoist Zodiac is thinking of doing another disinfect, killing the entire Chengdu-Chongqing Plain.

This is really cool for a while, and it's always cool for disinfecting all the time. Just as nuclear energy was just developed in the 20th century, the top superpowers at that time were also developing continuously. They wanted to open reservoirs, build nuclear-powered aircraft, and nuclear-powered rockets.

However, the unified logging area forcibly stopped the wind. ——As a long-standing civilization, it is necessary to restrain the temptations of technological breakthroughs.

The Science Department of the unified logging area has carefully demonstrated that the chemical frequency band killing method is effective for organisms undergoing organic reactions, but viruses are not completely biological, and there is no life activity in the absence of a host. Can chemical disinfecting be 100% destructive to this protein molecule?

The work philosophy of the unified logging area (Wei Keng) is very conservative, and everything that is not strictly verified is a small step experiment.

~

In the temporary development and combat department established in the Yucheng area, discussions began on the special situation in the Bashu area.

Note: The current meeting leaders in the unified logging area are basically replaced by the native humans of this world. At the grassroots level in the stable human development area, all the people who work and work are also localized.

However, Wei Keng is basically responsible for file collation and data analysis at the middle level. Now all high-level meetings in the unified logging area are basically documents and files sorted by Wei Keng.

Therefore, before the leaders, there are only two policies for reference.

The first is to continue to advance with traditional strategies.

Focusing on Wei Keng, restore the roads, build plantations, and replace them with life radiation. At the same time, some lakes that are too radiated by life, the mother of diseases, will be treated, either by filling them up, or introducing them into natural water systems to turn them into living water.

The second is to continue to invest in basic scientific research.

After the arrival of the Pandora field, a new door for microphysics has emerged for human civilization. Now, after many experiments in Carbon Valley, scientists have summed up the physical rules under the Pandora field!

1: It has been confirmed that the Pandora field can release chemical reactions in the information frequency band mode. There are the most chemical reactions of organic matter on the earth today, so the frequency bands of chemical energy associated with carbon are the most.

[But—there is the most oxygen in the world, so wouldn’t the frequency band emitted by forest fires be able to burn all organic matter like a nuclear bomb? But in fact such a phenomenon did not happen, which involves the second rule. 】

2: The release threshold of the chemical reaction band depends on the chain length of the compound! It is precisely organic matter that is most capable of forming chemical chains with complex structures.

This is somewhat similar to a nuclear reaction. The larger the nucleus, the lower the threshold for releasing atomic energy.

Because the release rules of the chemical frequency band and the nuclear reaction rules are so oriented, the current guess of Pandora physicists is that the strong and weak force model of the atomic nucleus in the physical field has changed, making the properties that should appear in the atomic nucleus , appearing in chemical energy.

However, as discussed in the above theory, the energy of the chemical reaction of inorganic substances can also be released. It's just that the bar to release is pretty high.

Just as there is hydrogen in the ocean, but nuclear reactions cannot occur.

And technology is to use artificial means to create the conditions that meet. ——The unified logging area has completed a hundred times the accumulation of Pandora's field effect in the carbon valley, but this is definitely not close to the theoretical upper limit. If you can find a larger test site and provide more sufficient power, then ~~~~

Scientists at Pandora Carbon Valley have come up with a formula.

Under certain conditions! It can reduce the energy reaction threshold of oxygen pure carbon to less than 10,000 times! What does this mean! Oxygen and a piece of charred charcoal are like a piece of sodium thrown on the concrete floor in the hot sun, and it will burn by itself.

At present, physicists calculate the threshold value of oxygen and long hydrocarbon chain reaction and release frequency band based on the oxygen base rate in the atmosphere, which should be between 250,000 and 60,000.

After reaching this condition, humans release the oxidation energy of kilotons of oxygen (for production technology, compounds such as ozone and sulfur trioxide are more suitable for weapon-level production and transportation), what kind of effect will it achieve in an instant?

Within ten minutes, within a very short period of time, the organic matter within thousands of square kilometers will face super-strong oxidation. At that time, all low-end species in the range, from plankton to single-celled organisms, and the weak viruses, will all die.

To study physics, if you poke a pole into some physics clouds, you will poke a big basket.

~

If the theory is right! Hundreds of millions of degrees of electric energy "oxygen disinfecting" can make the natural world in the region experience a man-made mass extinction.

In contemporary times, no living thing has evolved to adapt to the situation where the viscosity of the atmosphere has increased by ten times and the oxygen content has increased to ninety times. Oh, then it is not the atmosphere of the earth, the atmosphere of Venus welcomes you.

In theory, this would have had enough of an extinct effect on the mother of blights, an organism that lives inside slime molds in anoxic lake water. However, this still requires a series of experiments to verify.

[Please note that the priority here is to cause damage to organic life with long chains. If the oxidation effect of this scale is blocked by inorganic substances in nature, it may be diluted by natural water and the atmosphere, and finally 90% of the killing is blocked by rocks and biological remains. Therefore, Master Wei is also cautious about the predicted effect of this weapon. 】

Traditional industries are promoted horizontally, and high-tech is harvested in the later stage.

The unified logging areas in the two strategic directions can now "have all of them".

In modern times, Japanese comics described this kind of "all needs" as "now filling". Because only a powerful and rich individual can be so aggressive. Furthermore, when understanding the national level, I also feel resentful and think "if my country is so big and the population is so large", what will happen.

But the fact is just the opposite. The fundamental reason behind all the basic production and high-tech is not the arrogance of the great power, but the accumulation of the great power through the reserved character.

Wei Keng is a troublemaker, but he is also a national of a big country. He understood that the population and resources in today's unified logging area were not there at the beginning! They are all accumulated bit by bit.

Being able to advance in an important strategic direction today is the advantage accumulated in the past by being "reserved and cautious" in a large number of other secondary strategic directions.

In terms of external strategy, since 146 years, there has been no direct military confrontation after fighting with the Jianye Five-color Alliance. We have always held the power to fight a war, but we have not let it go, and we have not let the war drag down our development.

In the internal development, various interest groups thought about fairness when they first showed signs of development, so now they can mobilize the power of all provinces in the main strategy!

Such as the bonus of the strategy of moving the administrative center northward after 153 years. This can only be obtained at the cost of abandoning the road of "using the advantages of Guangdong's economic and industrial conditions to implement the secondary strategy" and adhering to the principle of "unified cutting" as the main strategy.

If you use the Japanese way of thinking, no, it should be said that you are facing the above two scenarios with the thinking of a small country, 1: You can’t restrain the pride when you are mighty; 2: You can’t suppress the lust after wealth. This kind of constant rampage in a small rhythm, in the great changes in history, of course, it can't be done.

Hengyang, at the highest meeting, Huang Jingfei and other 43 site staff reported after the connected Bashu.

Sun Xiangyang: "According to the basic plan, can it be completed within five years? (In the Bashu Plain) restore 150 human settlements."

Soho: "Industrial supply depends on the recovery status of the two main lines. The Chengdu-Chongqing line is still being explored and cleaned up, but the Yunnan-Chengdu line will be completed in two months."

Other departments have also reported the industrial supply situation one after another, and then, the only problem is personnel deployment. Restoring the self-sufficiency of workers and peasants in the Bashu Basin and gradually adjusting and restoring the ecology will require at least 200,000 people.

And at this moment, Wei Keng, who was in the auditorium seat, suddenly raised something.

Wei Keng said in the most flat tone: "I can make a new arrival."

The venue was suddenly quiet.

After a few seconds, Sun Xiangyang set the tone: "This is a good thing! How many can come this time?"

~

Although, no matter in the high-level or middle-level people in the unified logging area, people feel that the number of Wei Keng around them is much smaller, but in fact, the number of Wei Keng in the industry is increasing. Although the comrades here will not talk about this trend, they still have an indescribable vigilance in their hearts.

This is the inherent vigilance of human beings. When human beings face the development of the increasingly large and unchecked existence around them, they will feel a kind of uneasiness.

Wei Keng's arrival is beneficial in every way, but facts are facts. Objectively speaking: If Wei Keng, the existence of unity of will, suddenly stood on the opposite side of human beings one day, what would be the consequences?

Of course, for Wei Keng, "vigilance" is better than "respect".

Although the monitoring system gave him the title of "Human Emperor", Wei Keng has no plans to become the emperor. As long as people here are vigilant, there will always be seeds of independent progress.

~

Wei Keng said to everyone: "I can descend many times this time, but I want to know, how many descendants are most suitable for the development of current civilization?"

The Second Plane War has ended, and millions of Wei Keng are waiting to evacuate on the empty twisting plane.

The Pandora plane has also completed the energy test of organic matter generation in the Pandora field, and the information enthalpy consumed during the delivery of the main world can be reduced to one hundred thousandth of that when Wei Keng first arrived.

The scale that Master Wei can descend on now is beyond imagination.

Wei Keng: "Comrades, for me, how much I can exist in this world depends on how many things I need to do in this world. If hundreds of thousands of people descend into a cage, it will cause me pain. of.

This world is vast, but I would like to cooperate with you to complete this human revival. I don't want civilization to be a career that can last for thousands of years, because I have used too much force and lost the spare power to develop independently.

As life, everyone will grow old, but civilization is a more permanent great cause. So please give me an indicator, how much is needed now. "

~

Under Wei Keng's gaze, Sun Xiangyang discussed with people from various departments.

However, this issue, which was supposed to limit the upper limit of Wei Keng's investment, turned into a heavy increase as each department emphasized the difficulty of work.

That's right, for the overall unified cutting area, the number of Wei Keng should not be too many, but for each department and each job, each department's speech gradually became, lack of people (difficult to explain), important people (see When others complain and emphasize the rationality of their department), rob people (involvement)...

After a few hours of statistics, various departments have to promote the plan for more than 20 years, and there is at least a shortage of more than two million high-quality young and middle-aged laborers-Wen Neng did the experiment, and Wu Neng went upstairs with dozens of kilograms of equipment labor force.

How many East Asian women can hold paper materials the size of a computer case after sitting in school for a long time?

But most of the large instruments used by high-tech engineers are still designed for the weight of the smallest sub-systems that can be disassembled according to the lifting capacity of a mature male.

Not to mention that Sun Xiangyang's face turned dark, Wei Keng even yelled to stop. Wei Keng began to beg for mercy from the department: "I can send two million, but you really don't consider the possible social impact?"

~

At this time, Bai Linglu also added to the chaos in the monitoring space, opened the pop-up window and dismissed Wei Keng on the other side of the venue with a sneer: "Consequences, what consequences can there be? For development and construction, the more stupid you are The better."

~

Wei Keng's personal needs for the social security department in the unified logging area are very simple, nothing more than the guarantee of basic necessities of life, food, housing and transportation, and the freedom of network communication.

When asked about marriage, Master Wei shook his head directly, waving his hands and claiming that he didn't need it. Wei Keng: The figurines I make are of higher quality than most of the girls on this plane.

Therefore, there is no need for marriage, self-proliferation, no disability, young and middle-aged male labor force with knowledge and physical strength, and no need for female matching to build a family to maintain stability-this is completely a social development without side effects.

By the way, in East Asia in modern times, it was used by men in a certain generation of baby boomers.
