Chapter 1593 1.1592 The beginning of intervening in the frozen plot
"Why do they live in the salt pit?" Valkyrie "Valkyrie" Megan Gale asked. The onboard computer "Fortress-279" empowered by the "Super Brain Regional Chain" quickly gave a convincing answer: "Ah... crystal water."

The process of salt crystallization to generate water actually refers to the process in which a certain number of water molecules are bound to the crystal when salt crystallizes from the solution under certain conditions. Such water molecules are called crystal water. Substances containing crystal water are called crystal hydrates. Therefore, crystal water is water molecules bound to a compound, not liquid water, but exists in the crystal in the form of hydrated ions, also known as hydrated water.

"These water molecules sealed in the salt crystals may be the only water source that has not been sucked dry by the corpse tree." Wu Chen magnified the details of the Typhoon nuclear submarine "frozen" in the salt crystals on the multi-functional watch: "In order to adapt to the doomsday crisis in the post-biochemical era, it looks like it has been remodeled twice. The scan shows that the nuclear reactor is also operating inefficiently."

“That means there are people living there.” Valkyrie “Valkyrie” Megan Gale asked with a smile: “Do you want to go there in person, sir?”

"Yes, of course." Wu Chen smiled and said, "This is the starting point for intervening in the frozen plot. I must go."

"I'll go with you, Chen." The Queen of the Citadel, "Princess Fury" Furiosa, would definitely go with him.

"Okay." Wu Chen and Furiosa immediately set off on the little black bird.

With the help of the helmet display, the Queen of the Citadel, "Princess Fury" Furiosa, felt a little relieved as she witnessed with her own eyes the 21 super airships hanging from the Fortress Titans with skyhooks completing the initial integration with the airport area of ​​the Oasis Sky Island.

"Chen, you built a living area for Sky Island that can accommodate 5000 people, right?"

"Yes." Wu Chen smiled and said, "This is just the initial scale. Don't forget that the plastic floating island known as the 'Eighth Continent' was previously decomposed into 'polymer consumables'. As long as we give the drone swarm enough time, we will build a spectacular 'Eighth Floating Continent'. This is also the reason why the Oasis Sky Island was judged as an 'exclusive land' rather than a 'legendary vehicle'."

"After returning to the base, what are the follow-up plans for this 'floating continent'?" asked the Queen of the Citadel, "Princess Fury" Furiosa, with a smile.

"Of course there are." Wu Chen has already thought about it: "In some special environments or special scenarios, Oasis Sky Island can play a miraculous role. For example, the gas planet in the plot of "Jupiter Ascending", or the ground in "Plunder City" has been occupied by the predatory traction city, or the land in "Waterworld" is submerged by the sea level, etc. As long as it is separated from the catastrophe occurring on the surface, the low-cost, low-tech threshold near-future attributes of Oasis Sky Island will be highlighted."

"Ah, that's true." The Queen of the Citadel, Furiosa, nodded happily. "For example, the zombie forest is in crisis right now. It's also the 'surface catastrophe' that makes it impossible to settle down."

"That's right. In all doomsday scenarios where the ground is unsuitable for human habitation, Oasis Island can be used. Compared to the ISS space station that is separated from the Earth's ecology, Oasis Island's 'in-circle advantage' is also obvious."

"We don't even have to reach the technological line of breaking out of space." The Queen of the Citadel, "Princess Fury" Furiosa, easily understood the "in-circle advantages of low cost and low technical threshold."

"Right." Wu Chen quoted another classic quote from a big player: "Don't spend 1 bucks on a problem that can be solved with 10 buck. Never use a cannon to kill a mosquito."

"Indeed." The Queen of the Citadel, "Princess Fury" Furiosa, smiled knowingly.

The Red Sea Rift, including the Suakin Trough, is part of the East African Rift Valley. It is the result of plate motion. The Red Sea, separated from the Persian Gulf by the Arabian Peninsula, is not far from the Dubai Tower. The little black bird quickly carried the two to their destination.

"Chen, look at that." Surrounding the Red Sea coast, which has become a cliff, are long tree roots growing side by side. They are like rows of "straws" inserted into the bottom of a cup. They spread from the edge of the zombie forest to the bottom of the sea, densely covering the dry cliffs. There is no rock layer at all. For some reason, Wu Chen thought of the water pipes that filled the last well during the drought. These tree roots extending from the cliffs did not grow in a day. It is not difficult to imagine that the tree roots continue to grow as the sea level continues to drop. Until they extend from the original coastline to the bottom of the sea, the long root system will eventually suck the entire ocean dry.

So it's not just the zombie forests along the Red Sea, but the zombie trees all over the coastline of the world are desperately sucking water from the ocean, which has caused the current ecological disaster of extreme water shortage.

Descending along the huge tree roots that line the cliffs, huge pink crystal pillars began to appear.

Because sea salt crystals contain a variety of minerals, their color is usually slightly pinker or grayer than ordinary table salt. For example, "Himalayan Rose Salt" looks like rose crystal. The salt crystals of the Red Sea are a beautiful pink color similar to rose crystal.

And only by experiencing it in person can you feel the huge size of these salt crystals. It is definitely not the narrow "slit of sky" seen on the holographic map. It is these solid crystals that block the invasion of the corpse tree. Even the all-pervasive trypophobic hair roots are completely blocked. The last refuge is reserved for the surviving humans.

When he got closer, Wu Chen was surprised to find that this Typhoon nuclear submarine "solidified" in the salt crystals had obvious signs of human presence.

The "Typhoon" class nuclear submarine is 172.8 meters long, 23.3 meters wide, and has a displacement of 18500 tons to 46000 tons. It has a crew of 175 people, a surface speed of 16 knots, an underwater speed of 27 knots, a diving depth of 500 meters, and a self-sustaining capacity of 120 days. The nuclear power plant is 2 VM-5 pressurized water reactors with a power of 2×190 MW, a dual-shaft gear transmission, and a double 7-blade low-noise fixed-pitch propeller. The Typhoon class is not only terrifying in appearance, but also in combat power. There are 6 533 mm torpedo tubes and a fast loading device at the bow of the boat, which can be equipped with 22 torpedoes, including EST-53-65K, СЭТ-65 and САЭТ-60M and "Waterfall" rocket torpedoes, and can also be replaced with mines. It is also equipped with 8 "Needle" air-to-air missiles to destroy anti-submarine aircraft.

The strategic attack weapon is 20 P39 submarine-launched ballistic missiles, which are three-stage solid-fuel-propelled intercontinental missiles with a range of about 8000-10000 kilometers. Each nuclear warhead has 10 sub-warheads, and a single warhead has a TNT equivalent of 10 tons, which can be dispersed to attack 10 predetermined targets. The Typhoon class has a unique martial arts skill that can launch two missiles at the same time, while submarines of other countries can only launch one at a time. The US Ohio class has 2 missiles, which is more than the Typhoon but not as powerful as the Typhoon.

After the collapse of the former Soviet Union, this Typhoon nuclear submarine was secretly purchased by the Umbrella Corporation and converted into a doomsday shelter.

From the life-support equipment welded on the shell, it is not difficult to see that it has undergone a second transformation after the apocalypse to adapt to the drastically changed ecology of the Green Planet.

"Hello, is anyone there?" Wu Chen and Furiosa walked down the Little Black Bird together.

"Hey, keep your voice down." A "groundhog" emerged from its hidden burrow.

Seeing the human survivors, Wu Chen was relieved: "Do you have water?"

This classic line of dialogue that advances the plot directly immediately introduces the doomsday plot: "That depends on what you have?"

"What do you need?" Wu Chen asked back.

The little "groundhog" blurted out: "Food."

"No problem." Wu Chen nodded gently: "How do you want to exchange?"
