After a short wait, the Super Thunder Wave radio station was finally connected, but just after saying hello to the iron man from the new government, the communication was interrupted again. This was repeated several times, until half an hour later, it was completely stable.
"Has the new government counted the losses caused by this major earthquake and the changes in the ground surface?" Shen Cong first asked.
The person communicating with him was Hu Wei, a nuclear-grade mechanic.
Hu Wei was originally the ultimate iron man of the provisional government, but he was the strongest in the provisional government, but he did not receive the best treatment. Instead, he could only serve as the bodyguard of the big leaders. Therefore, he may secretly have a hint of dissatisfaction with the bureaucracy.
After meeting Shen Cong, he immediately became his idol.
When the machinist race began to be divided, his butt immediately tilted to the machinist side, and he was very enthusiastic about Shen Cong's plan to use machinists to control the new government bureaucracy.
Basically, many members of the mechanic race, reserve members, were recruited from the iron men.
Zhang Changde and Chen Xiuni are also nuclear-level mechanics, but they are not too crooked and still regard the new government as their primary service target.
Therefore, Shen Cong intends to support Hu Wei.
Only Hu Wei could cooperate with his plan.
Of course, the character of a crooked person like Hu Wei is not very good in nature. But Shen Cong doesn't care. At least so far, Hu Wei respects him very much. Maybe in the future, Hu Wei will betray because of his ambition. But at that time, Shen Cong estimated that he should have rushed out of the earth long ago.
At this stage, his strength as a particle-level mechanic is enough to suppress everything.
Hu Wei passed on the information in detail: "China's Great Rift Valley has expanded rapidly, with volcanoes erupting inside and magma overflowing; the Tanlu Fault Zone has formed a new rift valley, which is officially named the Tanlu Great Rift Valley; the three points of Tianjin, Hengshui, and Handan The first-line area is densely packed with lava rivers formed by various cracks; the same is true for the three-point and one-line areas of Xinxiang, Bozhou, and Bengbu.”
Due to proper response in advance, the new government's population losses were not large, with a total loss of nearly 23,000 people.
In the old world, even if hundreds of people died, it would be a tragedy. But in the new world, in such a big disaster, only 23,000 people died, which is really lucky.
The three cities with the most deaths belong to Tianjin City, Hengshui City, and Shangqiu City.
Because although these three cities are not located on the rift valley, they may be on top of the fault plate, which directly leads to frequent areas of fire hanging rivers.
Linyi City, Xinyi City, and Hefei City, located in the Tanlu Fault Zone, successfully avoided this major disaster because they were well prepared for migration.
Of course, not all of the more than 23,000 people died in Tianjin City, Hengshui City, and Shangqiu City. There were many casualties in each city.
Fortunately, the new government has mobilized all the people to reduce the damage to such a slight level.
The southern war zone was not so lucky. Even though the Guangzhou area was not in the position of plate rupture, magma eruptions still occurred in many places. In addition, the water-covering agent has not been fully promoted, and a large number of survivors are still ordinary people. This disaster, More than 36,000 people were directly killed.
The losses are much greater than those of the new government.
The current new government has a population of approximately 2.29 million, and the southern war zone has a population of approximately 750,000.
After learning about the losses of the new government and the southern war zone, Shen Cong immediately said: "Send me the situation of the Great Rift Valley as soon as possible. In addition, seize the time to count the number and location of Huoxuan River and craters, and then let the Academy of Sciences follow up the research and observe The impact of these fire-suspended rivers and volcanic craters on the environment.”
"Further statistics are not yet known. We have not received notification of the end of the crisis and cannot go out for scientific research for the time being. However, according to statistics collected from various places, the Huoxuan River is concentrated in the Great Rift Valley of China, around the Tanlu Great Rift Valley and in the sky. The third line is Henghan, and the third line is Xinbo and Beng."
The Great Rift Valley of China has almost cut China apart. If the terrain were not too high, it is likely that seawater would have poured in and formed straits and bays.
The Tanlu Great Rift Valley is narrower than the previous Great Rift Valley in China, but a long and narrow bay is formed in Yingkou, Liaoning Province, and a long and narrow bay is also formed in Weifang, Shandong Province. It can be imagined that the Tanlu Fault Rifts also occurred where the belt is located beneath the Bohai Sea.
There are three points and one line between Tianheng and Han, and three points and one line between Xinbo and Beng. There is no rift, but the Huoxuan River is dense.
There are also a small number of Huoxuan Rivers in other areas, but not many.
For example, when Shen Cong drove from Guigang to Wuzhou, he only observed two Huoxuan rivers except the Huoxuan River in Yujin Bay.
One occurred in Chima Township, Pingnan County, where Danzhu Town is located. It cut off the Xijiang River in the middle and had to be detoured. This Huoxuan River was named Xidanma Huoxuan River by Shen Cong; the other was in Xindi, Wuzhou. Town, Changnan Town, and Tangbu Town area, Shen Cong named it Xinpintang Huoxuan River.
In addition, there are some volcanic craters that do not form fire-suspended rivers. Some volcanic craters cannot actually be said to be craters. They are very large and can be called volcanic lakes.
According to Shen Cong's definition, Huoxuan River, volcanic crater, and volcanic lake are all active volcanoes with magma inside.
In fact, in addition to this, there are some frozen extinct volcanoes. Shen Cong ran over and observed the frozen extinct volcanoes, and found that they were no longer able to produce the effect of gathering fire energy.
However, the solidified volcanic rock made Shen Cong thoughtful: "This kind of stone has many pores inside, and its structure is mostly porphyry."
Shen Cong has done research on volcanic rocks.
The porphyry structure is that the mineral particles are divided into two groups of completely different sizes, the large ones are called phenocrysts, and the small ones are called matrix.
Crushing a piece of volcanic rock with his hands, Shen Cong felt the two mineral particles in detail: "The matrix seems to be just ordinary minerals, but the phenocrysts are a little different, like a mixture of metal and rock, with subtle fire inside. Particles. It looks like the fire energy solidified along with the magma."
The solidified phenocryst is not a fire medium, because it still contains a large amount of minerals, not pure metal.
But this kind of phenocryst made Shen Cong find a paradoxical idea: "If the metal and fire grain structure of the phenocryst are extracted, will it become a fire medium? Think further, the body of the fire spirit Is the composition collected from magma?"
The fire spirit originates from deep underground. Due to cracks caused by earthquakes and other special circumstances, it crawls out of the surface to cause disaster.
"Could it be that when comet fire comes, it scatters a large number of 'seeds' into the earth? It is possible that these 'seeds' are fire fragments. Shallowly buried fire fragments do not have the conditions to form fire spirits and can only form oasis. The fire fragments buried deep merged with the magma that invaded the earth's surface, thus giving birth to the fire spirit?"
When magma invades the earth's surface but fails to erupt, intrusive rocks will form over time.
Intrusive rocks generally form metallic minerals, and a sufficient amount of metal will be corroded by fire fragments, thereby forming activity.
"These activities cannot break out of the deep underground, so when conditions are sufficient, like before this major earthquake, the activities condense into an aqueous solution... In the end, the special active mixed metals and fire fragments form the fire spirit?" Shen Cong said. The origin of the brain-boosting fire spirit.
He did not follow any scientific inferences, but just used existing clues to assemble the story using his imagination.
It is possible to bring two unrelated things together, but it is also possible to bring out the truth.
It is still unclear whether the truth will be revealed this time.
At this moment, Brother Dao suddenly ran over with a super computer in his mouth: "Shen Cong, I got a good thing. I just killed a fire spirit, hehe."
