There is a kind of anomaly, even if it is placed in front of you, you will hardly notice it immediately. Its unnaturalness is obvious, but it is easy to be recognized because of the limitations of human thinking mode and classic problems such as visual errors. Human neglect, especially when the observer and the observed object are separated by a severely disturbed camera and a poor "cameraman" who is constantly rolling and flying, this situation is even more serious.
Like the classic academic question "Why are pigeons so big"...
It was also because of a sudden sense of disobedience in Hao Ren's heart that he couldn't help but observe carefully before noticing the abnormality in the picture.
Those broken things floating in the space of the big tunnel were in a disorganized distribution, coupled with the poor quality of the picture, Hao Ren didn't see any problem with their scale at first glance, he only thought that the too small images were caused by floating Too far away, and those outrageously large shadows are too close to the camera - but when a church steeple the size of a peanut hits the head of the little weak chicken (since the probe is strapped to the back of the little guy, So the latter's head has been blocked in the lower part of the screen), he realized that this situation was wrong.
Then he discovered that this kind of wrong-scale debris was everywhere in the Great Tunnel—in fact, all the debris floating in the entire Great Tunnel space was probably not the normal size.
Palm-sized buildings, miniature kingdoms like sand table models, these things seem to be far away at first glance, but in fact they float around the probe, and their size is really only that big; and The huge candlesticks that look like mansions, the broken wooden doors that almost cover the sky and the sun, seem to be huge because they are close to the probes, but in fact they are thousands of miles away, but they have appalling volumes...
In the more than ten minutes of video data, all Hao Ren saw were these fragments floating in an abnormal space with extremely weird scales. They were floating in a dim and chaotic place, which seemed vast and boundless, even No matter how much the camera moves, there is no obvious boundary or "wall" thing. Of course, the entrance of the big tunnel can be observed: when the little weak chicken was attracted by the meat slices and turned its head to fly upwards, Hao Ren saw the entrance of the probe entering the different space. There is a black crack in the middle, and nothing that looks like a cliff can be seen on either side of the crack.
That is the "underground canyon" that Hao Ren and Vivian saw outside.
"The inside of the big tunnel seems to be a different space..." Looking at these images, Vivienne subconsciously put her finger on her chin, "This is completely different from what we expected... We thought it was a place inside the planet. Perforated belt or tunnel system…”
"According to the scholars of Laherien, the entrances of the Great Tunnel are all over the world," Hao Ren thought further, "If this statement is true, then wouldn't it mean that the planet has only a thin crust? Outside the layer, the entire interior is a distorted space... No, no, the mapping between the different space and the real space is not such a simple model. It should be said that there are entrances to the different space under the planet's crust... "
"We may try to dig a shaft anywhere on the continent. If no matter where the well is drilled, it will be drilled into a large tunnel, it means that the entire interior of this planet is a spherical subspace entrance, and the crust It is a thin layer of rock and soil covering the spherical entrance. If we can successfully penetrate into the normal center of the earth, it means that the entrances to the large tunnels are only irregularly distributed underground. The main structure is still normal."
Vivienne gave a test plan with a clear mind, and proposed two completely different planet models based on two possible test results. I have to say that the years of tossing around in the sea of stars with Hao Ren have been extremely frustrating. It has greatly improved her knowledge in related fields. If she was a few years ago, she probably would not have thought of these things at all. At that time, she was most concerned about where the mustard is the cheapest and where there are dilapidated houses waiting to be demolished for free.
However, Hao Ren just shook his head slightly after hearing this test plan: "Although this plan is very good, it cannot be implemented immediately, and... In fact, I have some more daring plans for this world of Laherien." guess."
As he spoke, he looked at the holographic projection that had been frozen, and what was shown on it were those floating fragments that were seriously disordered in size and size. The vision gave him some crazy ideas.
But just when he was about to discuss his bold ideas with Vivian, a dull loud noise suddenly resounded through the entire underground palace!
The sound was like a volcano erupting in a closed cave, with constant roaring and frightening loud noises of rock formation cracking, which made people wonder if the underground space could not finally support the thick strata above and the whole It collapsed, and there was a violent shaking along with the loud noise.
"Something went wrong!" "Go to the main hall!"
Hao Ren and Vivienne looked at each other and shouted almost at the same time.
The two broke out and rushed back to the main hall area of the underground palace at the fastest speed, and returned to the resting place of their teammates in just a few breaths. He was awakened by the sudden loud noise and vibration, and he was waiting at the foot of the main hall.
Leah opened up a mana barrier to protect everyone inside, and outside the mana barrier was a fel shield that glowed with green light: since Y'zaks' current role is a warrior, this shield is obviously Little Elizabeth's masterpiece.
"Where did you two go?" Lily, who had the sharpest ears, was the first to notice Hao Ren and Vivian: before the two of them entered the main hall, her ears were facing the direction of the footsteps. Seeing people, he immediately shouted, "Did you go out to have sex again in the middle of the night?"
"Dogs can't spit out ivory!" It's not the first time that Vivienne has been irritated by Lily's words, but no matter how many times she hears it, she still can't help being furious, "Hao Ren and I are Go and observe the Great Tunnel!"
Leah, who was maintaining the mana barrier, was startled when she heard this. She wanted to ask if the two mercenaries in front of her had taken the wrong medicine and ran to study the tunnel in the middle of the night, but considering the situation in front of her, she said When I came out, it turned into: "Could it be that the loud noise and vibration just now came from the other side of the big tunnel?"
"No, there's no movement in the tunnel," Hao Ren said quickly. "The sound seems to be coming from above, and it's some distance away. I suspect something happened near the surface..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard Nolan's voice in his mind: "Boss! How is the situation on your side?! Nothing happened, right?"
Nolan! Did she also observe something floating in the sky
Hao Ren raised his hand to signal everyone to wait, and at the same time responded in his mind: "There are serious loud noises and vibrations here, but there seems to be no risk of the underground palace collapsing—what did you see on it?"
"Severe ground fissure, a huge rift valley suddenly appeared on the plain, hundreds of kilometers long, and one of the branched fissures spread to the black forest where you are, with fire and thick smoke coming out of the fissure," Nuo Lan reported what she saw, "And the situation at Changfeng Ridge is not good. The mountain seems to have been hit, and there are large-scale landslides and landslides, but the worst is behind..."
Nolan paused as he spoke, as if it was time for Hao Ren to prepare mentally: "The probes I released have also simultaneously observed this kind of geological disaster in other places in the Laherien continent. There are at least sixteen of the same level. Large-scale rifts appear in different parts of the continent, and the scene in the rifts is exactly the same as here. And those smaller-scale rifts are countless. Wait a minute... Something seems to come out of the rift... "
Two seconds later, Nolan's tone became serious: "They are humanoid creatures burning with flames. There are tens of thousands of such monsters pouring out from the cracks along the rising flames. The scanning results of them cannot be compared with any existing Corresponding to known life forms. Boss, the situation in this world is not good."
Hao Ren said quickly: "Let's go up now! You follow the movements of those monsters."
Liya noticed that Hao Ren's expression kept changing, and became more and more gloomy. She instinctively felt that the mercenary might have grasped something. Although she didn't know how Hao Ren did it, she asked :"What happened?"
"Let's leave this place first." Hao Ren waved his hand and led everyone to run towards the exit of the shaft. "Leah, just protect yourself. Get out, don't run around."
The cat girl always has excess curiosity, and now that the surface situation is unknown, it is better to remind this guy.
"I'm not stupid." The cat girl protested dissatisfiedly, and then followed closely behind Hao Ren, proving one thing with practical actions: she will always be an unshakable member of the three-counseling combination of cat, dog and fish …
After returning to the surface, the power of this disaster has been slightly presented to everyone.
Although the main fissure is not here, a branch fissure in the big fissure has spread to the vicinity of the black forest, and the flames gushing out from the fissure ignited some plants on the edge of the forest. Hao Ren saw the forest A flame that can almost illuminate a third of the night sky is rising from the edge, and the smell of burning trees has already wafted from afar.
Forest fires are only a matter of time.
During this process, the earthquake never stopped, and the weird roar continued to come from afar. Although they were much weaker than the initial loud noise, it was obvious that the disaster was still expanding .
"What the hell is going on here?" Looking at the great changes that came from nowhere, Liya, a carefree female mage, couldn't help but widen her eyes. A soaring light beam is the warning signal sent by the sentinel mages of the magic net monitoring tower, and this level of warning signal will only be released when facing an event of national disaster level. When I saw them, I felt my scalp go numb.
"Large-scale natural disasters, or supernatural disasters, anyway, Laherien is in big trouble," Hao Ren said quickly, "We'd better go back to White Maple Leaf immediately..."
Before he finished speaking, Nolan, who was monitoring the situation from the sky, sent new news: "Boss! New bad news is coming—those monsters that came out of the cracks are flocking to the cities on the plain!"
