Rolling heat waves spurted out. It cooled down rapidly in the confrontation with the extreme cold. Water vapor in the air at minus 110 degrees Celsius directly condenses, forming ice crystal fog composed entirely of ice crystals, also known as ice fog. And the waves overlap and solidify into a foggy ice wall.
Soon, hailstones that rose into the air and froze directly fell down.
This is far from over. A series of methane explosions spread to further areas along the underground pipelines extending in all directions. Amidst the dull explosions, the frozen Arctic Circle began a terrifying collapse. So much so that in an old photo I saw earlier, the Kola Borehole, which was sealed by a drilling cover and had a simple handwriting of 12,262 meters, turned into a huge deep pit that almost covers the entire Arctic Circle.
"Is this the Korra Borehole?" The Valkyrie was stunned by the magnificent Arctic gap in front of her, which looked like a newly erupted volcanic crater.
What’s even more terrifying is that the nine-turn exquisite ball is like a miraculous workmanship that is “staggered and overlapped, exquisite and clear”; “layers can be passed through, and it can rotate freely”!
In the Arctic Circle after the collapse, large and small holes are nested inside each other, full of evil beauty. The hole is not made of ice, soil, or rock. Instead, it is fibrous mycelium that is full of sculptural beauty like muscle lines. It is even the same as the "Exquisite Ball", "the surface of the ball is engraved with various relief patterns, and the inside of the ball is made up of several layers of hollow balls of different sizes. It looks like a sphere on the outside, but there are layers within the layers, and there are nests within the nests. The ancient mold nest where the ball can rotate freely"!
Even if they don’t have trypophobia, when the remaining personnel on the ISS International Space Station saw the "crafty exquisite balls" that filled the entire Arctic Circle, everyone couldn't help but feel the hair standing on end and felt chills all over their bodies.
The "paradox of human nature" formed by the convergence of chaos, evil, conflict, and opposition that transcends human cognition, unabashedly touches people's hearts. Starting from the numb scalp, it stirred up cold prickly heat all over the body. No one was spared the shock and destruction that hit the soul and the fear that followed.
"Fortunately we found you, Wu Chen." Ms. Anoushayh Ansari, who was sitting in front of the screen, murmured.
Later I heard that the remaining personnel on the ISS International Space Station originally planned to directly launch the "Destruction Star Project" if no survivors of the catastrophe were found on the ground to continue the previously unfinished mission. As the saying goes, "Strength can produce miracles." Use the God of Destruction that will arrive in three days to break through the ice and smash into the gate of hell. With the terrifying equivalent of almost 120,000 Hiroshima little boys, the "Mother of Darkness" Mahakali was completely wiped out.
As a result, when Wu Chen exploded the ice, he realized that the entire Arctic Circle had turned into a mold nest like a "ghost ball"!
Although there is no doubt that an asteroid impact can cause huge damage. But once the collision is missed, there is a high probability that Mahakali, the "Mother of Darkness", will be able to escape the disaster! The horrific result of breaking through the gate of hell but failing to kill the "Mother of Darkness" will be the final catastrophe for mankind.
So it turns out that before you find the correct jack, you can’t do any miracles!
Countless bloody (?) experiences tell us that plugging the wrong interface may even cause permanent damage!
"It's so troublesome..." Wu Chen put up a pavilion with his hands and looked at the densely packed holes: "Tal Rasha can only make seven ancient tombs, and Cao Mengde can only make seventy-two doubtful tombs. This 'Mother of Darkness' 'It's full of holes, how should I break them?"
While Wu Chen was looking at the "exquisite mycelial sphere" in the Arctic Circle, the ISS International Space Station far above the earth also started detailed mapping of the mycelial sphere.
"Can three days be enough?" Ferosha, like Wu Chen, is concerned about the mission of saving the world.
"It should be possible." Wu Chen thought about it seriously and said: "The radius of the earth is about 6371 kilometers. Subtracting the radius of the earth's core is about 3470 kilometers. And the drilling of the Kola borehole is about 12 kilometers. The average difficulty is no more than 900 kilometers per day, and three days is enough.”
"What are you waiting for?" The Valkyrie overlooking the mold nest has reached the edge of being unbearable.
"Let's go." Ferosha couldn't bear to look at the evil that went against humanity.
"Yeah." Wu Chen nodded lightly.
The Arctic Circle refers to an imaginary circle with a latitude value of 66°34' north latitude. It is the dividing line between the northern frigid zone and the northern temperate zone, and is complementary to the latitude of the Tropic of Cancer (the latitude value of the Tropic of Cancer). The area north of the Arctic Circle is called "Intra-Arctic." Usually, the area within the Arctic Circle is called the Arctic region, which consists of the Arctic Ocean and surrounding land. Its land part includes Greenland, the three Nordic countries, northern Russia, northern Alaska in the United States, and northern Canada. There are many islands in the Arctic Circle, the largest being Greenland. Due to the severe cold, there are very few species of life within the Arctic Circle. The plants are mainly lichens and mosses, and the animals include polar bears, seals, whales, etc.
Most of the Arctic Circle is the Arctic Ocean, with a radius of approximately 2,542 kilometers. The ISS International Space Station has also measured that the opening of the Gate of Hell is more than 5,000 kilometers away.
Imagine driving through a huge Arctic gap with a diameter of 5,000 kilometers into a mold nest. Just like an ant in a hot air balloon feeling that the ground beneath his feet is completely flat. Yes, it’s like walking on flat ground.
As Doomsday Fortress-279 sails into the Arctic Gap, the bird's-eye view inadvertently changes to the upward view. The mold nests that look like “ghostly balls” are like complex spherical celestial bodies hanging overhead.
What's even more terrifying is that what greets Wu Chen is a city buried by crisscrossing mycelium.
Not far in front of Fortress of Doom-279, a rusty road sign stood at the entrance of the reinforced concrete metropolis of the old world that seemed to be wrapped in layers by a giant spider web: "Welcome to New York, the Empire State."
"Is New York ahead?" Ferosha, who grew up in the wasteland, had obviously heard about the Old World, the world's most magnificent metropolis.
"It should be." The scan results of the onboard computer showed that this was the "outer shell" of the "Ghostcraft Linglong Ball" mold nest. The entire city of New York is part of the inner bladder of a curved spherical shell, and the huge urban buildings are firmly glued together by mycelium. Moreover, a city that was originally spread out on the ground turned into a curved spherical ruin with two ends tilted upside down in the air, as if a huge wave suddenly solidified and hung in the air just before it surged to its top. The skyscrapers stuck to the spherical shell at various heights point to the center of the ball in an indescribable way. It was as if thousands of sharp arrows were aimed at the sudden intrusion of Doomsday Fortress-279, completely deviating from human aesthetics. What makes the vision even more distorted is that outside intruders will mistakenly think that they are driving on flat ground, while all kinds of things in the city are rolled up in the air, and even pointed upside down at themselves. The most egregious sense of astonishment comes from the way bacteria view the world. This is obviously completely different from humans.
Deep scanning also showed that all mycelium is in a deep dormant "state of suspended animation." This is obviously the lowest energy consumption mode that can sustain life.
"Want to enter New York, Chen?" Ferosha held the steering wheel firmly. The internally and externally linked "T815 Extreme War Truck" can control Doomsday Fortress-279.
"Of course." Wu Chen's eyes of true seeing, which disappeared in a flash, had already seen the clues.
"Okay." Ferosha shifted gears skillfully and stepped on the accelerator. The "T815 Extreme War Truck" drove the Doomsday Fortress-279 and rumbled towards the dead spherical New York.
