In the face of disaster, wealth without power to protect it is no different from waste paper.
Faced with such a situation,
Many members of the security team and the ladies from the maglev service team are trying their best to maintain order:
"Don't be too anxious, everyone.
According to the latest news from experts, this seemingly precursor to an electromagnetic storm is just a normal natural phenomenon."
"Expert, bah!"
"If you ask an expert whether he believes what he says, even a dog won't believe it!"
The crowd gradually became more chaotic in the noise.
Even though the night watchmen were trying their best to control the situation, there were still countless people rushing towards the entrance of the maglev train that was about to depart.
They want to escape from here.
But at this moment, the light of the sun in the sky seemed to suddenly brighten for a moment,
Immediately afterwards,
In the carriage of the maglev train that was still operating normally, the lights began to flicker and the information on the display became confusing.
In an instant, the entire train began to sound a shrill siren, and the car body shook violently.
So the passengers began to panic and grabbed the handrails around them to try to stabilize their bodies.
Because of the pulling ceremony performed by Tide believers. At this moment, the first ripples of the Carrington Solar Storm had already blown over Binhai City.
The first to be affected must be the maglev facilities.
If someone is looking at the sky right now,
Probably they could feel that the sky seemed to be distorted by an invisible force, and the sun's light became extremely dazzling.
The conductor quickly explained the current situation to the passengers through the announcement and calmed everyone's emotions.
He told everyone:
Due to the normal activities of solar storms, the train's maglev system has been severely disrupted and cannot maintain normal operation.
In order to ensure the safety of passengers, the train must brake urgently and stop in Binhai City.
In an instant, the whole maglev train station was filled with shouts and cries.
But in the next second, a huge gunshot sounded, making all sounds quiet.
The man holding the gun was a gray-haired captain of the night watchman.
He slowly put away the pistol that he had just pulled the trigger towards the sky, then clenched his fists and said in a hoarse and firm voice:
"Please believe in us and the extraordinary people who are working hard to deal with this crisis.
Binhai City will be fine.
Everyone will be fine!"
now,
The whole world is separated by a thin line, as if divided into two pieces of sky.
With Linjiang Road in the old town of Binhai City as the dividing line, the traffic jammed on the expressway has become synonymous with congestion and panic.
But compared to the rising panic,
The origin of the crisis [Binhai City Playground], which should have been at the center of the crisis, seemed extremely quiet.
Su Wen and Jiang Menghan had already passed the huge Ferris wheel and arrived at the reef offshore of this abandoned amusement park.
The sound of the tide came slowly from a distance, like ancient music, low and long.
The waves hit the rocks on the shore, stirring up layers of white foam, and then returned weakly to the sea.
The sea breeze is mixed with the salty smell and a subtle smell of metal rust, which is the result of the interaction between the electromagnetic radiation remaining in the ruins and the sea water.
"The Carrington Solar Storm is coming."
Su Wen looked at the sky and said slowly,
“According to historical documents:
It was the morning of September 1, 1859, when amateur astronomer Richard Carrington boarded a private observatory located on a country estate outside London.
After opening the dome's shutters to reveal a clear blue sky, he pointed his brass telescope at the sun and began to draw a cluster of huge black spots on its surface.
It was at that accidental moment that Carrington discovered what he described as "two intense, bright white lights" erupting from the sunspot.
five minutes later,
The bright light disappeared.
But within hours, its huge impact was felt across the globe.
Perhaps, because of the pulling ceremony held in the early stage of the surge of believers.
This time, except for coastal areas, the impact on other locations around the world will be greatly reduced."
"Mr. Su,
But we are not such selfless people."
The iceberg girl quietly pulled down the high-tech sniper goggles, adding a touch of professionalism and calm beauty.
Next to her right hand, a high-powered sniper rifle weapon box that was constantly showing light based on digitization suddenly appeared:
McMillan TAC-50 high-powered sniper rifle.
After being reinforced by the fourth-level runes of Sentinel Commander Lundell, compared to Aurora's Aurora Wings, which require a high level of psionic power, perhaps this is the most suitable weapon for her.
Hearing the girl's answer,
Su Wen just smiled gently:
"Just words to comfort myself.
Tide Believers,
They can complete the tidal pull between planets through rituals, which is something that even I didn't expect at the beginning.
No wonder they were able to obtain the energy to drive the entire base in the deep sea ruins.
tidal effect,
Perhaps it is the true starting point of everything.”
At the same time, in the Deep Sea Research Institute, Jiang Xiuyuan also opened the large data analysis screen in front of him.
Because of the suspension of maglev trains,
The top management of Binhai City discovered the real crisis very quickly:
[A massive solar flare with energy equivalent to 10 billion atomic bombs.
The flare sprayed charged gas and subatomic particles toward the Earth, and the resulting solar storm (the "Carrington event") was the largest to hit the Earth on record.
even,
According to records at the time:
The Federal Telegraph Company was able to send messages to Portland, Maine at intervals of 30 to 90 seconds using only the auroral currents of Carrington Storm.]
Jiang Xiuyuan looked at the information in front of him, and his tone inevitably became more solemn:
"Ice core samples determined that the Carrington event was twice as powerful as any other solar storm in the past 500 years.
So,
That super electromagnetic storm..."
He recalled his daughter who had given him the correct results via text message half an hour ago.
He finally gave his approval in silence:
"Your response to this crisis is indeed ahead of me."
Unlike Binhai City's senior officials who were in a tense atmosphere, Su Wen actually had a big heart.
He may have been trained by so many game bosses, but he was still able to smile brightly under such heavy pressure:
"Menghan.
Enjoying the aurora in Binhai City may be something we will never experience in our lifetime."
The girl nodded slightly, she understood what Su Wen wanted to express:
"If it were at night, the picture might be even more beautiful.
My father contacted me,
The Institute of Deep Sea Research has determined the specific time when the solar storm contacts the atmosphere and even the ground."
"How long until the Carrington Solar Storm erupts?"
"three minutes."
The high-powered sniper rifle in her hand has been assembled with a clicking sound.
But at this moment,
Su Wen suddenly felt a hint of disharmony:
"It seems that even for these three minutes, some people don't want us to spend it easily."
Suddenly,
The azure long sword emerged gracefully from his hand.
Then he pointed at the waves of believers emerging from all directions in the abandoned amusement park.
