20. Mask (11)

How can it be.

Everyone at the scene thought so, but Roland had a solemn face.

Regardless of why increasing oxygen concentrations freezes the world, the oxygen content in the atmosphere is always kept relatively stable under the regulation of the ecosphere - that is, the circulation between animals and plants, and even if someone develops a means to promote the growth of plants, the growth rate of animals will automatically increase accordingly, offsetting the increase in oxygen concentration caused by plant growth - this is a natural science common knowledge that Alfheim primary school students know.

But now it has just experienced the baptism of high heat shock waves, and except for the little vegetation that has survived the protection of the "Wall of Sighs" around the railway embankment, it is a completely blackened desert. In this case, the oxygen concentration is so high that the cigarette can turn into a torch and restore fatigue, which is an extremely abnormal phenomenon.

If there are other things around that can quickly produce high concentrations of oxygen, only -

"Did it do it by the Boiling Mirror Realm?"

"That's right, using the temperature difference to decompose gases and change the atmospheric environment is the best thing in the boiling mirror world. At present, the proliferation to such a scale can increase the oxygen concentration so significantly, and if multiple sites start to proliferate at the same time, and the erosion is larger, 1 month is more than enough. ”

"You ......!!"

"I'm sorry. ”

Valrhona interrupted the conversation between Li Lin and Roland and raised her hand to ask.

"Can you explain it in a language we can understand?"

"Yes. ”

Li Lin nodded apologetically and spread his hands to the audience with puzzled faces.

"As you know. The temperature of the world is not constant, and the climate will change subtly in all four seasons due to various objective changes. After sorting out the various changes, we can roughly divide the natural factors that affect the temperature into the following types: sunlight, plate movement, and atmospheric composition. ”

The most direct effect of sunlight and plate movement on air temperature is that many mass extinctions in ancient times were caused by these two elements, and in the age of advanced science, there were also operations in which the inhabitants of the universe dropped mass bombs on the earth, or launched nuclear wars, and used radiation smoke to cover the sky and cool the earth. As for the composition of the atmosphere, most people have heard of the greenhouse effect and the climate anomalies it causes. But I'm afraid not many people know. When the oxygen concentration on the planet's surface is abnormally high. When carbon dioxide is thin, what terrible catastrophe happens.

"Miss Saint must have seen a glass greenhouse, right? Isolate the cold wind, let the sun out, and prevent the heat from escaping. Even in the cold and harsh winters. Flowers can also grow and open normally. And for the creatures of this world. The carbon dioxide suspended in the atmosphere is the glass window that protects against the cold wind. What happens if you remove this window. I don't think there's any need for explanation. ”

The smile that Kiel had been holding stiffened, and Valrhona pursed her lips in silence.

Why did Roland's face change? They roughly understood.

"But—"

Roland frowned and retorted.

"Even if you increase the oxygen concentration, it takes a process to dilute the carbon dioxide, and you can't do that in a month. ”

"Yes, you can rely on the Boiling Mirror Realm. ”

Li Lin's categorical assertion.

"Don't confuse inorganic life with plants that rely on photosynthesis to produce oxygen, they can be converted to a form with liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen as the main components according to their needs, using ultra-low temperature of minus 196 degrees Celsius to cool compressed air, oxygen and nitrogen will be the first to evaporate, and the last product left behind is dry ice - solid carbon dioxide. This process is used to continuously separate the carbon dioxide, increase the oxygen concentration, and then bury the dry ice deep into the ground, and the atmospheric component replacement operation will be carried out quickly. And that's just the land, if it's an island...... You haven't forgotten the molecular formula of water, right?"

"Dihydrogen monoxide (H2O) ......"

"Exactly, just by breaking down the seawater, it will be enough to dramatically increase the oxygen concentration. Within a month, the minimum surface temperature will drop to minus 152 degrees, and the whole world will be covered in ice and snow, from the Arctic Sea to the equator and all the way to the south. ”

Just like the Earth during the Huron Ice Age and the Karoo Ice Age, which were formed by the Great Oxidation Event, which together spanned 400 million years, the asteroid fall that exterminated the dinosaurs and the nuclear winter of nuclear war are nothing short of gentle.

"After most of the organisms are extinct, the dry ice stored under zài will be re-vaporized by the Boiling Mirror Realm, and the environment will be restored again. The newly purified world will become vibrant again, and it is gratifying to congratulate and congratulate. ”

This is another advantage of the boiling mirror world: controllable. It is more economical, environmentally friendly than growing mushrooms all over the world and smashing the earth with big stones, and the speed of environmental restoration is much faster.

He was chosen to be the planet's will agent, and this ability was also an important factor.

After reading the memories of the planet, Li Lin discovered that before him, the mother goddess had also sought the guardians of the transcendent species of other planets. These include crystal spiders that can turn into UFOs, crosses that shoot cross-ray cannons from the sky to the ground, black gas giants that emit ultra-high temperatures all over their bodies, and carnivorous plants that float in the sky and sow seeds all over the world...... In the face of these "same kind" who are simply monsters and aliens together, even Li Lin feels that the birdman with wings is more suitable for the title of "apostle".

Although they look a little strange, the "angels" are not weak, and each of them has the power to wipe out all the creatures on a planet, and some of them have a glorious record of crushing several intelligent beings with a high degree of civilization. But the mother goddess finally chose him, and a large part of it was that he was better at controlling the power and could exterminate a qiē creature with minimal damage to the planet itself. This is something that the agents of other planets cannot do.

"Speaking of which...... Huh?"

After explaining all the explanations, Li Lin looked around again, except for Roland's tense face, he only saw a bunch of inexplicable expressions.

"What's the matter, didn't I say it clearly enough?"

"Uh...... Sorry, I don't understand. Can you say that again?"

Valrhona scratched her cheeks in embarrassment, Jiel was also dazed, and Azdahaka interjected with a sneer.

"So, it's all your fault, Mr. 'The Fault of One Qiē in this World'. ”

"Blame me?"

Sighing, Li Lin's smile did not change at all.

"Well, I'll use a more intuitive teaching method. ”

The cane gently tapped the iron sheet under his feet, and with a "dang" sound, the surroundings became pitch black.

It wasn't night, it wasn't the darkness of an enclosed space. Boundless. Even the light felt too far away and unreal. The void that will absorb the heat of the body is dotted with bright spots that do not flicker.

In the darkness, a blue light flashed under his feet, and the earth shrouded in blue tulle appeared in front of him. I was amazed by the scenery in front of me. Spindle-shaped black crystals hanging high above the earth come into view. Kuruddeo, Zazbarum, Fermian...... A total of 37 landing modules are all directed towards the earth. Each of them shoots out a small firelight and adjusts their posture. The landing capsule fell together towards the ground.

The ovoid object at the tail of the landing module ejects light particles that approach the ground with unusual acceleration, and the tip touches the atmosphere. The high heat generated by the friction turned into a bright red umbrella-shaped heat wave, which enveloped the landing module and sank into the atmosphere. The 3,000-ton fire bolt accelerated to a speed of 80 kilometers per second, tearing the atmosphere and falling to the ground, which is equivalent to detonating 3 million tons of explosives at the same time and releasing them in an instant, and the high-heat shock wave swept through the forests, plains, mountains, and cities, and millions of people were tragically carbonized before they could even feel the pain, and were blown away without a trace by the shock wave. Buildings collapsed and fires broke out......

After using the kinetic energy of the fall to clean up the scene, the inorganic life form is deeply rooted in the ground, rapidly expanding its power, forming complex populations underground, and establishing three-dimensional traps. Turbulence in a funnel-shaped pit sucks air into the underground liquid nitrogen lake at the bottom, where the pure oxygen separated by cooling and compression is released into the atmosphere, and a large amount of dry ice is buried deep underground.

In the process, hot air rises and cold air sinks, eventually forming a giant tornado that reaches more than 15,000 kilometers into the stratosphere. While the air displacement process is greatly accelerated, the ground begins to cool down, and the ground is already covered with knee-deep snow, even though it is the height of summer. At this time, it has only been a week since the fall of the landing module, and the temperature has dropped to minus 10 degrees Celsius in various places.

Two weeks after the fall, troops with battle flags appeared on the horizon. Although the cause of the meteorological anomaly is not yet understood, countries have sent their armies to fight against the ever-expanding inorganic life forms as the most dangerous enemies. However, weapons that were created to kill their own kind of carbon organic creatures were nothing more than fun toys for inorganic lifeforms, and those toys were wielded as a sumptuous meal. In the past half a day, the mighty army has disappeared, and only one or two black diamond sculptures with barely human figures remain to prove that something had happened.

The tornadoes are becoming more and more intense, the inorganic organisms that have fallen into the sea are working at full speed to separate and reduce the seawater, the ocean currents and monsoons are disordered, and the interaction with multiple giant tornadoes causes a super giant depression, and finally turns into a super large typhoon that is enough to cover half of the world, and the earth, sand, dust, ice and snow on the ground are sucked into the sky, forming chaotic clouds to obscure the sky and sunlight, the cooling rate is further accelerated, agriculture is completely destroyed, and famine occurs in various places. Under the snow and ice at minus 50 degrees Celsius, there were corpses everywhere that had died of hunger and cold.

In the third week, there are not many greenhouse gases left in the atmosphere, and the strong ice room effect is starting to take hold. The temperature in the equatorial region is close to minus 80 degrees, the ocean begins to freeze widely, the snow becomes a thick ice sheet, and the sunlight is reflected by the ice, and the cooling rate is further accelerated. At this time, the remaining intelligent life in the world is less than three digits, the vast majority of animal life has become extinct, and only inorganic life is still controlling atmospheric changes in an orderly manner.

In the fourth week, the land and sea at the poles and the equator were covered with ice, the surface temperature dropped to minus 152 degrees Celsius, and all the organic life was wiped out except for a small part of the biota living around the submarine volcano in the deep sea area. The blue world, which had been full of hustle and bustle, became silent, and only a dead, dark white covered the whole world.

When!

The sound of the cane tapping on the ground echoed in my ears, and after the crisp sound, the frozen world, the illusion of death, and the violent catastrophe all disappeared from my eyes.

"You shouldn't have any doubts now, right?"

Leaning on a cane, he asked the pale girls with a gentle smile. The elegance that was the same as before. At this moment, only the breath of terror and awe remained in their eyes.

"It's ......"

"Relaxing the conclusions of the simulation deduction directly in the form of hallucinations is more intuitive and impressive than the written narrative. The only problem is that it is difficult to elaborate on the principles in it. ”

"What a gracious explanation, so you tell us this...... What's the point?"

"Of course it makes sense. ”

Turning his cane flexibly, Li Lin smiled calmly at Ji Er.

"This is to deepen the understanding of the position, so that no one can do stupid things that will push the whole world into a corner. ”

“......!!”

"I believe that the Holy Maiden also knows that the purpose of the following is to maintain a certain balance in the world and prevent the world from falling into an extreme state and collapsing. ”

The Church was also born out of this, but with the passage of time. The purpose of its original establishment is gradually forgotten. The framework within the organization is beginning to loosen, and the signs of decay within the organization are becoming more and more obvious.

The position and interests of the Church itself take precedence over the doctrine and the entrustment of the Mother Spirit, which is the most obvious indication of the increasingly common idea at the top of the Church, that it can continue to perform some of its functions according to inertia. The result of this unchecked development is the shaking of the world order.

"The Church, the Kingdom, the Humans, and the Orcs all have their own positions and interests. This is not surprising. It can even be said that it meets the needs in a certain way. But if anyone wants to break away from the established framework mechanism, such as the use of divine will agents to conquer the world, then they will have to resort to the last resort - that is, the ones just seen - to prevent the danger from expanding. Miss Gielle. After hearing this, do you still think the previous invitation is meaningful?"

The mask of calm began to crack, and after understanding the true meaning of Li Lin's words, the fear and anger that could not be concealed leaked from Ji Er's forcibly calm face.

This is an undisguised threat and a warning that no one can afford not to take seriously. As long as this black-haired man wants to do it, the illusion just now will definitely become real, and every creature in the world will be engulfed by the extreme cold.

"It is the world that guards below, and when forced to do so, there is only a choice. Thankfully, the statement was inadequate, but it has not yet really triggered a 'world restart', and hopefully there will be no next time for such ill-conceived actions." Next...... Let's settle the score, Azdahaka. ”

With a sudden wave of his right hand, the thunder light rolled up a vortex of energy, and the particle beams rushed along the earth like huge blades, bursting with other flashes.

The roar of the explosion and the air currents spread, and the air expanded rapidly under the high-temperature beam, and the smoke dissipated, leaving dark red claw marks on the distant earth, and lava flowing at the bottom of the ravine.

With just a random blow, the terrain is changed, no, even the terrain is created. What was difficult to achieve even with the most level of strategic attack magic, Li Lin completed with a wave of his hand.

The aftermath of the heat stirred the atmosphere, and strong winds swept around.

"I don't have the habit of warning again and again, for the sake of your own life and the life of others, Miss Gilles, I advise you to be honest. ”

Standing in the wind, like a breeze blowing on his body, Li Lin dropped his sneer and threw aside the saint with a hesitant face.

"To be honest, I don't have much interest in torture, abuse, and so on. Those who call me a ghost and a sadist are really misunderstood. Look at me, look me in the eyes, do I like to take pleasure in other people's pain?"

The extremely sincere speech made people can't help but want to believe it, looking at Li Lin's serious expression, even Valrhona couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of relief.

"However, if there are no rules and discipline to restrain this kind of organization, it will collapse. Though I didn't want to, it was necessary to put the rebels to the most brutal punishment possible, and on the way here, I wondered what kind of execution would suit you, and what would go well with this burgundy dress? Millions of volts electric shock? A long, thick, black, bright gun stuffed into your mouth and stirred and thrust it and then broke your brain? Finally, after thinking about it, I chose the most suitable way for you, who thought you were alone. ”

The fingers nimbly turned the cane, and in the blink of an eye, the cane turned into a whip, and with a brush, the whip made a beautiful arc and landed accurately on Azdahaka's crotch.

Smack!!

With a crisp cracking sound, a creepy scream soared into the sky, and the almost unconscious Azdahaka clutched between his legs, falling onto the wagon and convulsing.

"Sure enough, it's the 'whip of love' that is most suitable, don't you think so......?" Uh, what do you want to do?"

Facing Roland who stopped in front of him, Li Lin asked. (To be continued......)
