The current Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, David Cameron, frowned as he held the document in his hand.
In the past half a month, America's tyrant, Superman, had made headlines all over the world. He had also become a headache for all the major organizations and countries in the world.
When the once most powerful country in the world was in the hands of an irritable and self-centered superhuman, especially when the other party had at least tens of thousands of nuclear bombs in his hands and had the power to move asteroids, no one would not feel a headache coming on.
The economic collapse of the United States and Clark's unilateral tearing up of a large number of agreements and treaties had affected the entire world. The greatest economic crisis in history came just like that. Like dominoes, as a large number of American companies went bankrupt, it directly affected Latin America, Europe, Asia, and other regions, bringing about an unprecedented great depression in the human world.
The tsunami that Clark had personally created in the Atlantic Ocean had directly or indirectly killed tens of millions of people. Ireland and southern England had also suffered heavy losses.
The United Kingdom's financial situation was on the verge of death, walking on a tightrope. The daily emergency calls took turns, almost enough to explode Cameron's head.
However, he still took out half an hour to look at the document in his hand and meet the few intelligence officers and researchers before him.
Looking at the line graph in his hand that kept on decreasing, and seemed to be getting closer to zero, Cameron asked in confusion, "I don't understand. Is this document trying to say that in the past two months, the frequency of volcanic and earthquake eruptions has been decreasing? Is there a problem with this? "
A gray-haired old man in front of him said, "It's not that simple. The earth is moving at all times. As the energy in the earth's core is transmitted out, earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, and all sorts of disasters happen at any time and place. It's just that we can't sense most of them.
"However, according to our recent statistics, the frequency of earthquakes and volcanoes is far lower than the lowest historical value. It's even decreasing. This is too abnormal."
British Prime Minister Cameron frowned impatiently and continued, "So, what's the problem with this? Do earthquakes and volcanoes have to happen every day? "I'm very busy now. There's a British person trapped every second. Gentlemen, if you don't have anything more important to say, then please forgive me …"
Just as he was about to dismiss the few researchers before him, one of the young men walked out and came before a whiteboard. He picked up a pen and started drawing.
He drew a large circle and then several circles in the center of the circle.
The staff at the side wanted to pull the young man away, but Cameron waved his hand to stop them.
The young man explained, "Our Earth is rotating every minute and every second. The revolution and self-transfer transmit energy to the Earth's core. Therefore, the core is subjected to the most violent energy and pressure. This is also the embodiment of Earth's vitality.
The Earth's core continued to burn and churn, spreading energy and pressure outwards. This resulted in earthquakes, volcanoes, magma, and tsunamis, as well as our planet's magnetic field and continental plate movements.
However, the rapid decrease in earthquakes and volcanoes meant that the temperature of the Earth's core was decreasing. This was why the pressure waves and magma did not have the power to rush out of the Earth's surface.
If the temperature of the core continued to drop, the magma would gradually cool and solidify into rocks. Even the high-temperature liquid metal that made up the core itself would solidify.
"It's the same here. After these things turn into rocks and metals, a large number of holes will appear in the Earth's core. These holes will extend from the Earth's core all the way to the Earth's mantle, and then to the Earth's crust. The large number of holes and the power of the planet's rotation will cause the rocks and soil to shrink toward the Earth's core.
"The earth will break apart, and all kinds of trenches that are tens or even hundreds of kilometers long will intersect on the Earth's surface. Seawater will seep down through the holes, further lowering the underground temperature and turning into solid ice.
"Not long after, not a single drop of water will be seen on the Earth's surface. The composition of the atmosphere will change due to the disappearance of the oceans. All animals, including us, will go extinct due to being unable to adapt to the new atmospheric environment.
"Of course, before this happens, 90% of the people on Earth will probably die of dehydration.
The entire Earth's surface will turn into large areas of desert and Gobi Desert. Humans will go extinct because of this. "
On the whiteboard, there were a large number of formulas written by the young man, as well as broken continents and small crosses of death. Hearing this astonishing statement, Cameron's expression turned abnormally solemn. He asked, "Are you sure that this …"
"Mr. Earth's core …" The person next to him added.
"That's right. This Earth's core … Are you sure that its temperature is dropping?"
"It's absolutely true. We've made repeated calculations based on the recent changes in the transmission of seismic waves and the current situation in over 20 regions. Not only is the Earth's core's temperature decreasing, but the rate at which it is decreasing is getting faster and faster. If this continues …"
Cameron let out a breath. "How much time do humans have left?"
"Not more than one and a half months."
Cameron looked at everyone with a solemn expression and said, "Let's seal off this news first …"
"We won't be able to seal it off for long. All the countries' Seismological Bureaus will be able to come to this conclusion very soon."
"Then what should we do?" Cameron rubbed his forehead and said, "Throw a few nuclear bombs underground?"
"Impossible," the young man said. "We can't even penetrate through the Earth's mantle layer that is 2,800 kilometers long, let alone the Earth's core. "Moreover, the chemical reaction in the depths of the Earth's core is far from what a few nuclear bombs can compare to. There are intense explosions that are comparable to nuclear reactions happening every minute and every second. "
Cameron shook his head and said to his assistant, "Get someone to verify this matter and control them for now."
"You don't understand at all." The young man dashed forward but was stopped by the staff. However, he continued to say, "There's no time. We won't be able to save Earth. We must quickly build the spaceship. Mars, Titan … Anywhere is fine. Otherwise, all humans will be wiped out."
Concurrently, if they were to continue to delve deeper into the Earth, passing through the Earth's crust, the upper mantle layer, the lower mantle layer, and the surface of Castle Gutenberg, they would descend to a depth of over 3,000 kilometers. Then endless flames and explosions would fill up their vision.
The outer core, which was formed from liquid iron and liquid nickel, was filled with a high temperature of 4,000 degrees Celsius and an unprecedented pressure. Even diamond would be pressed into butter here. It was because the pressure here exceeded 1,700 tons per square centimeter, and the liquid and solid would only move about one centimeter per year.
However, under such circumstances, a lizard-like body swept past the sea of flames like a sea monster in the sea and then disappeared.
…
"Hahahaha, Zuo Qingcang, things are better than I imagined. In a world where no one can stop us and where there are no restraints, our projections will quickly grow stronger than us. Are you sure you still want to continue building transmission gates?"
Another voice said calmly, "If you were to send yourself over now, not only will you destroy yourself, but you'll also destroy the Earth that we're in."
"Are you guys scared?" Zuo Qingcang said calmly, "A bunch of idiots." With that, he ignored the projections' words and focused his attention on Clark.
"I can't wait to head over."
