Chapter 273 What's Wrong with This World

Extraordinary power gives Kane extraordinary abilities. ()

Just by judging the trajectory of the sun in the sky, he can roughly know which season it is.

Of course, you also need to pay attention to the surrounding vegetation, broad-leaved, deciduous, and coniferous. The type of plant will tell Kane the approximate location.

The majority of the trees he sees here are deciduous, which means temperate.

Then by observing the trajectory of the sun in the sky, it is judged that it is autumn.

But the temperature is around minus 5 degrees, which is comparable to winter.

If this is the norm, then the trees shouldn't be deciduous.

If it was just an occasional cold wave, then the information brought back by Shufa Eagle should not be that the nearby buildings were in ruins.

After thinking for a moment, Kane released the magic crow. Like the flying eagle, the important casting material for this type of spell is the spirit of the bird.

The tamed birds take their souls after death, and use alchemy to create energy bodies similar to ghosts and ghosts, and raise them in special spirit cages, and use them when needed.

This is one of the resources that Hermione brought back from another parallel world. Kane hasn't clicked on the technology tree of this series yet.

The difference between the spirit crow and the spirit eagle is that the spirit crow can fly farther, but it does not have the ability to share vision. What it brings back is perceptual information, which can be understood as an alternative dynamic graphic simulation information. It looks very uncomfortable, but it can basically Express the meaning clearly.

Let the crow go to a wider area to investigate, while Kane himself rests on the spot.

At six hours, he woke up on his own, refreshed.

Spirit Crow also brought back the information.

Kane concluded by looking at that information:

This is indeed the world of sinful souls, and it is a dark world of sinful souls.

However, it is like a mining area that has been destructively mined. It is not Gaga's new world of sinful souls, but leftovers from other people's play.

Specifically, it was played badly by the reincarnated people, and then abandoned by the Wanxiangmen system. It is still quite new, but it is not known that it was played badly by Voldemort's master and snake father Ego.

He is less inclined towards the latter,

Because if Ego played, it would cause the civilization of this world to fall into the violent wind of plasma film, not the wind of steampunk.

Of course, he only speculates that Voldemort's master is Ego, and there is not enough evidence to confirm this. So there is also the possibility of guessing wrong. As far as he knows, the incarnations of Nyarlathotep, who loves to make trouble, are likely to contribute to the birth of steampunk.

After all, according to the legend, Naia deliberately leaked the original power technology and nuclear fission technology to humans. It is the kind of temperament that deliberately writes a martial arts secret book, then brags about it, and then sits and watches the people in the rivers and lakes scramble and fight.

Since this world is steampunk, the scum-level extraordinary resources in front of him have a better place to go.

Low-end alchemy magic circle, to create low-magic materials. This type of material is like those vampires and werewolves of the next generation. It is said that it is a mortal thing, and it has some extraordinary characteristics.

It is a typical feature of this kind of material to treat extraordinary as ordinary. So it took about thirty hours for Kane to build a land steam-powered car. Its driving method is like a steam train. The steam pushes the lever, and the lever pulls to turn the wheels, and the wheels let the car move forward. It can't exceed 40 miles, but it is a means of transportation that fits the background of civilization in this era.

Then he embarked on the road of searching. He needed to find enough extraordinary resources before he could set up the time and space gate for the return journey. At worst, he has to send a space-time beacon to the dark HP world, so that the ontology can find a way to rescue him. Now that the two places are disconnected, the only advantage is that he doesn't need to rush back this time.

The extraordinary energy in this world is extremely barren, he can hardly feel the existence of elemental power, and he has to rely on reserves to maintain his own minimum needs.

Under such circumstances, in order to obtain enough supernatural resources, it is necessary to both open source and reduce expenditure.

His plan is to use the extraordinary to promote the mortal world, and use the mortal world to collect the extraordinary. Use the existing extraordinary resources wisely to obtain more extraordinary resources.

Therefore, he plans to find human beings first and inquire about the news. If he cannot get the information he wants, then he can only drive more people to serve him to achieve his goal.

The original planet of the sinful soul world is the earth, but now he is sure that he is in the temperate zone of the northern hemisphere. Then going south should be the right choice. He calculated that after 1-2 days at most, he would be able to see the same humans who fled south.

The exploration of the magic crow allowed him to draw up a route to the south. According to the current speed, he will be able to enter a big city tomorrow morning, where he hopes to obtain some important information.

Such as maps, resource extraction situation.

In the context of steampunk, the four most important resources are coal, iron, water and wood.

In his memory, there is a distribution map of the earth's resources, and even the resource distribution map of the sinful soul world. After he became a god, he recalled them all and could call them at any time.

But this is the corrupted world of sinners, God knows if the resources in those memories have been exploited. And if he wants to build a mortal foundation, there is definitely a big difference between whether he can use local materials, especially the first base, there is no room for loss.

Due to its high strength, his steam locomotive can travel southward day and night without delaying his normal rest.

He deliberately etched the energy-gathering magic circle on the roof cover, and for this reason, he did not hesitate to make the roof cover into a large circle.

As a result, there were very few harvests in one night, and even the power of darkness was pitifully small. He did some calculations, and just the cost of making the magic circle would take a month to collect to pay back the cost, not counting the cost of running the magic circle.

There is no doubt that this is a frustrating revenue situation. Even if the wizards of the HPs come, if the mana is exhausted, it will take more than three days to restore the mana to full.

This means that in this world, extraordinary technology is far less applicable than science and technology, and this general trend of extraordinary power drying up cannot be created by a blizzard-like plunder.

Another one, since the environment here is even more unfriendly to extraordinary people than the environment in the dark HP world, why was Sarton moved by Voldemort's lobbying?

Kane firmly believes that as a BOSS, Sutton still has at least some wisdom, so he can't be fooled by simple talk.

In other words, for some special reason, this world has formed a polarized situation of enrichment and poverty of extraordinary energy? The snake father, Yi Ge, set up a trap in the impoverished area, just to make the trap more effective?

This seems to be an explanation, but the only problem is, what about the emergency measures?

The capital invested in the time-space trap is so large, how many people are not even prepared for the master of Voldemort?

With nothing to do, Kane was thinking wildly, but in the end he couldn't figure out why.

And the bloody plots of encountering little beauties, robbers, wild monsters, etc. did not happen.

In fact, he really wanted to meet living people, so that he could get information.

It's a pity that there is no, it is always empty and there is no sign of people.

At the end of the night, Kane heard the cry of the cold wind, and the weather changed suddenly. On the second day, the lead cloud was overwhelming, and it was not low, but it covered the sky tightly.

Kane judged that there may be no chance of clearing up in the past few days.

By the time the steam car arrived at the edge of the city, the crushed snow had already been flying and sprinkled one after another, adding a dynamic and bleak style to the already frozen world. The type that just won't stop.

Kane drove into the city, and soon discovered through the details that the people in the city left a little hastily, but generally speaking, the basic order was maintained.

The doors and windows of most of the houses are locked. The home is not messy. The objects and supplies are in their places, and the furniture is covered with dustproof cloth. It is obvious that when the owner leaves, he intends to return after a period of time.

Through detailed observation, Kane also deduced the technological level of human civilization in this world. From the perspective of daily necessities, it was around 1890.

At the end of the Victorian era, people were still immersed in the atmosphere created by the rich returns brought by the Industrial Revolution, driven and passionate.

And such a background is indeed at a fork in the road. From 1890 to 1910 in the history of the earth, steam cars, electric cars and internal combustion engine cars once had a period of tripartite confrontation.

There is a very interesting point here. The most commonly used fuel for early steam cars (note that they are cars, not trains) is gasoline, followed by kerosene, and burning coal is rare.

Looking at steampunk from the perspective of the technology tree, the understanding in one sentence is: Suppose at this fork in the road, the external combustion engine (steam engine) after further development is developed first, what will the future be like?

This is actually the current appearance of the science and technology tree of human civilization that netizens jokingly called in later generations. It is connected by countless coincidences and inevitability. If it is wrong, the situation will be very different.

For example, in the Fallout series of universes, the premise is that the transistor was not invented in 47 years, but has been using electron tubes. It was not until the middle of the 21st century that there was a breakthrough, but in the process of catching up quickly, a nuclear war broke out.

The addition of key technologies can often have a lot of interesting impacts on history. In the end, although it is the same goal by different routes, the process shows that all roads lead to Rome.

If it's just the deepening of the external combustion engine, it won't be too crooked, but if there is an extraordinary force exerting influence, leading to the appearance of so-called black technology, then it can take you to pretend and fly you.

Like this world, Kane simply estimated that it has high-end technology and can detect the technological level of the earth in 1945.

In 1945, the ME262 jet fighter developed by the desperate Third Reich was already flying in the sky. The Manhattan project in the United States was also successfully completed, and the fat man and the little boy were lost on the Japanese land this year.

So this year is very symbolic for the human beings on earth. So what about human civilization in this world?

Kane didn't see the nuclear technology, at least not in the city he visited, but the steam engine just played a somewhat magical effect, but there is physical proof.

Energy tower, Kane found such a representative facility in this city, very steampunk, not only reflected in its thick and durable shape of fur style, but also in its function, it can generate energy The hood-type heat screen barrier can bathe the inner area in the heat radiation like summer sunlight.

Kane could tell that this was a trial. After reading some information and documents in the Municipal Council, he confirmed this even more.

The change here began with the abnormal weather more than three years ago.

It was extremely cold that year, and it was on a global scale. Human beings caught off guard killed and injured many people. This extreme climate anomaly naturally aroused people's attention.

Some scientists said that another ice age is coming, and some scientists said that there is a problem with the sun, frequent sunspot activity, and unstable light and heat radiation. There are also scientists who say that the planet is deviating from the established orbit, getting farther and farther away from the sun, and the series just happened to be broken, so it will get colder and colder.

After the cold wave year passed, everything seemed to return to normal. The people didn't take this matter too seriously, but some people did.

This is the world of sinful souls where human life can be transformed into extraordinary resources. Major events in this world are often related to the extraordinary domain in one way or another.

As the ruler at the top of the mortal world, he has a considerable understanding of the extraordinary domain, which is very similar to the dark HP world.

Kane also thinks this is reasonable and nothing wrong with it. After all, the mastery of the resources of the mortal ruler determines that he is relatively sharp-eyed and capable of understanding some phenomena that cannot be explained by science.

There is no relevant information about what the rulers of this world discovered specifically. The information Kane summarized from the documents he could find is that the rulers began to carry out a series of secret deployments, which are very similar to the kind depicted in the original world disaster movie {2012}, conquering certain technologies at any cost, The other is to go to war in the hoarding and deployment of materials.

The development of the energy tower started at that time. In order to speed up the research, various plans were developed simultaneously.

In this era, there is no super-computing simulation deduction, all of which are the practice of real swords and guns. This is how the energy tower in this city came about. And what it ultimately does is prove that something isn't working.

Other wonderful projects of the same level include land steam cruisers, steam-powered robots, super ecological parks and so on.

The fact that humans can play so happily has an important relationship with this civilization background similar to the Victorian era.

More than 90% of the resources are in the hands of 10% of the people. (The incident in 1853 has been introduced. The gap between the rich and the poor is huge. Overwork deaths can be seen everywhere in sweatshops. The treatment of the people at the bottom has not been improved. The workers are about equal to other slaves.) Then I almost figured it out myself.

This year, when the cold wave came, the chosen ones headed by nobles began to flee north.

It was the first time in a week that the authorities issued a widespread notification to let people find ways to evacuate.

Think of a way, it's really easy to say...
