Chapter 16 I don't want to, but I do.
The sound of the road echoed in this somewhat simple manor hut.
John and Klein looked at each other, because they didn't expect the end of Lu Yuan's words.
How could it be thought of?
The sun is extinguished.
How is this possible?
"What?" Only John continued to ask calmly and then.
So Lu Yuan told him what happened.
"After the sun is extinguished, eternal night comes to the world, and darkness covers the earth."
"Everything withered, countless animals died in the cold."
“Even humans cannot keep themselves safe.”
"The temperature drops every minute and every second. After the sun goes out, the earth does not produce heat, but instead dissipates heat outward every minute and every second in the form of thermal radiation."
"Once humans regarded greenhouse gases as a terrible environmental killer, but now, greenhouse gases have become life-saving straws."
"But it's useless."
“It’s useless, it’s useless.”
"No matter how high the concentration of carbon dioxide and methane is, it can only allow the earth to rise by several degrees Celsius on an annual scale under the sun."
"But once the sun goes out, the earth will quickly spread heat into the universe."
"We have all seen stoves. Because their temperature is much higher than the surroundings, they can keep warm to those who are roasting fires. However, stoves require firewood or coal as fuel. If the fuel is exhausted, the stove will quickly cool down and extinguish."
"The earth is not a stove, the earth is just a person who keeps warm next to the stove."
"After the stove was extinguished, the earth began to cool endlessly in the cold darkness."
"The first barrier of the earth is the ocean. Because the ocean contains a lot of heat, the earth did not quickly drop below freezing point as soon as possible after the sun was extinguished, because the ocean and warm currents were still playing their own role."
"But when the equatorial waters are no longer warm, humans can only rely on burning firewood and oil to keep warm."
"When the whole world starts to snow until all the water vapor in the air is lost."
"Further and further, there are the white snowflakes of carbon dioxide."
"Carbon dioxide is followed by nitrogen, nitrogen is followed by oxygen, oxygen is followed by hydrogen and other rare gases."
"When all the components of the atmosphere turn into ice and snow and land on this world, the earth will be truly quiet. The planet is barely exposed in the universe, receiving the baptism of various cosmic rays, and has changed from a blue star with a blue light to a pale planet of death."
“This is our future.”
Lu Yuan said everything calmly. Klein felt that he understood the meaning of every word Lu Yuan said, but he could not understand Lu Yuan's words together.
But even so, the future Lu Yuan mentioned is so terrible and chilling.
"Then have humans become extinct?" Klein asked.
He felt like he was telling a joke.
When every mouthful of air in the air condenses into ice and snow, can humans survive alone?
Klein can directly say that humans are dead.
Lu Yuan turned to John: "John, although you have not joined the army, you are still an expert in this field. Please make a prediction."
"If humans fall into this situation, then after the sun is extinguished, how will humans make decisions and save themselves."
John nodded, he had already imposed himself into the human decision-maker.
"First of all, we need to create a refuge that can maintain the survival of the high-end elite class, including scientists and technical jobs from all walks of life, a certain number of sociologists, and a small number of financial experts. We need to find a place with sufficient energy supply. If there is enough fossil energy, it will not be a problem to last for at least a few hundred years. There are also various nuclear power plants. As long as there is enough nuclear fuel, it can also be easily maintained for hundreds of years."
"But the shelter created in this way can accommodate only a limited number of residents. Even if some essential grassroots workers are considered, the total capacity of each shelter cannot exceed 10,000 people."
"And if there is no early warning, even if such a shelter can be built by the will of the state at the first time, the number of such a shelter will not be too many in the end."
"And secret construction is needed to avoid panic among the people."
As he said this, John shook his head and smiled: "At that time, no matter how rich he had, he would not be able to exchange a place in the shelter. When the sun went out, the entire economic system would collapse, and all wealth would become numbers and waste paper. Only calories, food and drinking would recognize the focus of people's pursuit."
Lu Yuan looked at John with some surprise: "So, what about the fate of the soldiers?"
"Is the fate of the soldiers?" John looked at Lu Yuan, thought for a while, and shook his head bitterly: "The government needs a certain amount of soldiers to execute their will, and can comfort them with a bright future, but soldiers themselves are an unstable factor. The army has too much force and even many social resources. It is very difficult to rely solely on the personal authority of those military generals to restrain a huge army."
"What's more, this is a disaster of human destruction."
"I think the earth will usher in the last World War while building a refuge."
"All countries are scrambling to find the right opportunity to consume populations, that is, the war itself."
"Go to plunder other countries' survival opportunities and seek your own survival."
"And all soldiers will become victims. The shelter in the future only needs to maintain limited self-defense capabilities. Soldiers are tools of defense. If the biggest enemy of mankind is ice and snow and cold in the long time in the future, then the dragon-slaying technique will be useless."
John raised his head and looked at Lu Yuan: "If there is one day, then I think it is a day when the world casts swords as plows and stops swords as martial arts."
"Of course, this day will definitely be a nightmare for all soldiers."
Lu Yuan was a little surprised and looked at John's blue eyes: "Are you awake?"
"Maybe." John shook his head and smiled.
“I like this world.”
"Even if this is a false world, I still like it."
"I like racing horses with Klein and talking about the ideals of the future together."
“I love strolling around this pasture and experiencing tranquility.”
“I also like to recite poems with people I like under the moon and flowers.”
"I like everything in this world and hope to live in this world forever."
John said quietly, and Klein looked at his brother, looking confused and wondering what he was saying.
Lu Yuan nodded and held John's hand.
"Then I want you to return to the real world now."
"Will you?"
John smiled: "I don't want to go back."
"But I'm willing to go back."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire space began to slowly shake and shatter. Klein couldn't believe it and shouted John's name loudly.
At this time, Lu Yuan heard a girl named John.
He looked up and saw a girl in a blue dress shouting John's name at the top of her lungs at the window, crying until tears burst out from her eyes.
