Chapter 282 Eastern Values
While busy, time flies by.
Seeing that April has come to an end.
Kane didn't just care about himself. Happy real version of playing house.
Even if he wanted to, it would not be easy. After all, there is a belief system in operation, and he has to go online from time to time to solve some decision-making issues like a CEO.
After all, for example, priests landed in the Faroe Islands and Iceland.
Iceland has no ice, many volcanoes, and abundant geothermal resources. The curtain of the sky has now passed the 70th parallel north latitude. At this point, it can be said that the general trend has been achieved. Next, it is nothing more than the difference between perfection and white jade.
Antarctica and the Arctic Ocean, each with a large landmass, still enjoy normal sunlight. In fact, it is not too normal, after all, it is the two places where polar day and polar night occur most frequently.
Although there is still the final 20-degree opening that cannot be closed, the contest between cold and heat is no longer so obvious. Under the influence of such a long period of ice cold, the two areas have been repeatedly cooled, and the sea water in the Arctic Ocean has dropped below minus 15 degrees. Spend. Tidal action still keeps it from completely freezing, but it's coming soon.
In March and April, Iceland experienced two blizzards and a bomb cyclone. There were losses, but they basically survived. Of course, now is not the time to relax our guard.
Because the curtain of the sky was operating too violently, it created an effect similar to the formation of bubbles in the glass. These thermal airflows were the culprits that caused the bomb cyclone and blizzard.
In general, the frozen planet is not completely silent all at once. There is a process from abnormal frequency to stability, and this process takes about two years.
That is to say, after two years, the new climate characteristics have basically stabilized, and the land and sea are like soda chips that have been completely dissolved, and they are no longer noisy.
In the past two years, the ultra-low temperature brought by snowstorms and bomb cyclones is the most terrifying killer, and then the continuous low temperature.
A series of factors made a newly promoted pastor of the Haoshen faith embark on the road to Iceland with a sense of mission.
Maybe in a few years, when he thinks back to today's scene, he will feel that he is stupid + funny, but at this moment, he is indeed like a boy in the second year of middle school, full of passion and radiating the brilliance of humanity.
The purpose of this pastor is very pure, that is, to spread the word and bring the gospel of the Lord to more people, so that people can have more hope and happiness, and less depression and pain.
Kane had no choice but to restrict his preaching and preaching,
Because there was also a blizzard in Durness Bay in April, for which he conducted another long-term loan transaction.
There is a large population in Iceland, once the explosive belief surges, and then borrows money to buy magic, he simply cannot afford it.
Unexpectedly, only the most devout three people can carry out the new rules of faith lending every day, but it better caters to the characteristics of hunger and thirst marketing, and has acquired a large number of believers with a decent degree of piety.
The total daily production of Power of Faith doubled several times in just one week.
Kane also realized from this that there are really many hard-working people living in Iceland, or trapped in Iceland.
The total number of believers exceeded the one million mark at the end of April, which is equivalent to the first-class UP master of station B in the future.
A lot of information is obtained from the believers, most of which are life details revealed during the prayer process. With a little integration, a lot of valuable information can be deduced, such as the status of social operations and so on.
On the contrary, the mountain city and the skull port are lackluster. It is nothing more than the expansion of the scale, the increase of equipment, and the completion of the assembly line composed of industrial robots. Although it is still very primitive, it is a relatively representative milestone after all.
The ice cap of Deep Winter City has been transformed into a hoard of water resources, and the top of the city has been covered, so there is also a distinction between the ground and the ground.
Currently, the underground city is mainly about energy and planting. In the future, you can consider adding farming based on the actual situation, and the planting is mainly vegetables.
On the way to the north to search, he knew some crop seeds, a large part of which he did not keep. Because he brought better ones himself. There are even detailed classifications, such as drought resistance and cold resistance, and now we use high-yield ones because the planting environment is first-class, the insulation tube provides the right temperature, and the sun lamp replaces the ultraviolet rays of the wavelength required for plant growth. It is an hourglass that always maintains the right humidity.
The surface respects the style of this world, and built a steam heating array with the energy tower as the core and key point and the steam hub as the node.
When all these devices are in operation, the thermal radiation can cover the entire area, so their existence is still necessary. In the future, there will be extreme cold, and the 20-meter-thick cover alone may not be able to resist it.
As the saying goes, tight earning is not enough to spend slowly, piecemeal, using some east and west, unknowingly, his extraordinary resource reserves are running out.
The income from dismantling the space-time trap has long been spent, and nearly 50% of what he carried has been used up.
Always keep a little, if something happens, he can turn over, if there is nothing left, then he will be almost the same as an ordinary person.
Although the divine power is good, one is that he has a shallow foundation when he is new, and his inventory cannot withstand squandering. Another one is that he is an incarnation after all, if the snake father Yi Ge really wants to use this as an entry point to attack him, he is very likely to lose.
The so-called defeat means not being able to protect the believers, so that they were slaughtered by Yi Ge's minions.
Once the wanton use of supernatural power is lost, life suddenly becomes much more boring. It seems that everything is slowing down, slowly.
Most of the brain-implanted puppets have been deactivated, and there are only four that are driven daily, one old man, one uncle, one young man, and one woman. He himself is 15 years old. In the human world where people look at faces, he seems a little too young. When interacting with people, it is easy to cause a lot of troubles. It is more appropriate to be a spokesperson.
In the first ten days of May, extraordinary resources were stuck at 50% of the stock. As a result, Kane became completely mortal. The power of darkness obtained every night, combined with spiritual power, was enough to control the brain-implanted puppets. Or put in a HP wizardry like Luminosity or something.
Tie Zhu also rested.
In fact, the work will never be finished, but the conditions are not met, and the cost performance of forced work is too low.
In the past, Kane rarely fell into this state where some things he didn't want to do, but the things he wanted to do were not suitable for doing.
After some thought, he decided to take a small airship for a ride.
The airships in this world are still quite distinctive. The alloy skin of the black technology level. After Kane knew this material, he always felt a sense of unreality.
Not to mention metallurgy, the precision requirements for the plate rolling machine have reached a very high level, and it is still a very large one. This is what a group of skilled workers who only play with vernier calipers at most can do. of?
If you say you're being silly, you don't say anything. Isn't this kind of dark?
But it has appeared, and it is widely used, and there are still many people who can make it.
The airship manufacturing process, which is used as a hot air bag, is also very mature. It does not fly high, but it is very stable. The British used it for reconnaissance and search, small-scale transportation, and hunting in Greenland.
Kane has been in this world for 7 months, and he has almost collected all the technical information. Among them, the belief system is very helpful, because it can be seen and heard through the eyes of believers.
The soul cannot be peeped unless it is actively opened. The sharp eyes of the gods seem to be able to penetrate people's hearts, but it's just as if, in fact, they can only use other people's bodies to feel, and whenever their hearts are leaked, either they are not doing things confidentially, or they are guarding against them. Into the.
All soul-based spells also have to face such problems. Hypnosis, soul search, and even the frightening Imperius Curse must compete with the will of the target, looking for gaps to achieve their goals.
If the Imperius Curse is really that easy to use, then Voldemort can use it on wizards one by one, three people in one day, and more than a thousand people in a year. There are not many wizards in the British wizarding world. Why is there a war?
The soul is precious because of privacy, which may be the reason why Westerners strive to pursue freedom and advocate the supremacy of the individual, while Easterners have been distorted for too long, so that they care too much about groups and rules.
From clan to clan, from tribe to nation, when "team spirit" became a buzzword, many Orientals did not realize that Orientals are actually more gear-spirited. Most of them know their social position and work hard. On to the core gears.
I am the leader, so you have to listen to me. This is a basic rule that does not need special explanation. On the contrary, any kind of negotiation or discussion complicates things and seems hypocritical.
Some call it obedience, some call it slavishness.
In fact, the strong are respected.
What the superiors say is right, and if they are wrong, the subordinates have to endure it. The most difficult thing in the world is that I am not strong enough to stand on a high ground, not because of who is more reasonable.
Easterners have studied this kind of thing for thousands of years, and they have already seen it through.
Of course, this refers to the principle of being a human being, not the principle of natural science.
Every oriental person has the kind of thinking that "a prince will be better than a relative", and they can't face it calmly that "ten years ago, I was a clerk in a certain store, and ten years later, I will take over this store and become the new owner. , and one continues to do dude' stuff for this new boss.
Some people say that this is an official addiction, even if it is, why is there an official addiction, because the official represents the kind of good-looking among the strong. Climbing up is an important part of the outlook on life.
Not being able to return home in good clothes, not being able to pretend to be better in front of others, that is the life of a salted fish, and it is a failure.
Value orientation determines that Orientals are always in a state of hunger and thirst.
Kane is the same, restless. He is not willing to do things that are purely time-consuming, and thinks it is too inefficient. He would rather carry more burdens on his shoulders to keep himself busy.
In fact, this is the essential source of motivation for him to go out for a ride, and he doesn't even realize it.
Does he need a break? In fact, no need, he has organically combined his career and interests. Only those who work for others or for money will feel tired and long for rest. People like Kane don't need it at all. A career is a hobby, and doing things is playing.
The route of Kane's airship trip is roughly south.
From a topographic standpoint, the situation in Greenland is a central glacier, or ice sheet, surrounded by permafrost.
Frozen soil also has a lot of ice and snow, but it can be seen, or it is easier to dig into the ground. Except for those cases where snow nests have been frozen into ice for millions of years due to terrain.
The glacier area is about 1.8 million square kilometers, and the average thickness of the ice sheet is 1,500 meters.
So this area, at least the humans of this era, cannot afford to play without the support of extraordinary power.
Ice mining is fine, but the Wannian glacier water is used by the source world's mineral water company as a gimmick, and it is very expensive. But if you want to build a city on this, it is too unscientific. After all, people are relatively easy to get sick in an environment below 5 degrees. Building a city on a glacier, just to resist cold and tide is a big topic, a big problem. consume.
Because of this, as far as Kane knew, the refuges were all outside the ice sheet.
If you look at the lights from space, you will probably see clusters of dotted rings.
Among them, the northernmost one is the most precious. Then there are those north of the 80th parallel, and the rest are the southernmost Jingui. Relatively speaking, transportation is much more convenient. As for the environment and climate, behind the curtain of the sky, except for the uncovered areas, the rest are treated equally.
Also north of the 80th parallel, the refuge on the west side of the island is more expensive than the gold on the east side of the island. Also because of traffic.
The traffic on the east side of the island is inconvenient, and the cost of material hoarding is higher, but the efficiency is low. Therefore, the dignitaries built refuges in the name of the country, mainly operating on the Western Front.
Kane took the eastern route, and his goal was to use Deep Winter City as the circle point, several points within a cone within a radius of 100 kilometers.
The weather is fine today, cloudless, clear blue sky, light breeze.
There are not many days like this that can be enjoyed. After taking off in the airship, Kane can see the blackened skyline in the south. It is the battlefield where the natural environment and the area covered by the veil of the sky are at war. It is already time for nature to be conquered. question.
Although it is already May, affected by the extreme cold crisis, the temperature is still low, minus 17 degrees. For people living in the temperate zone in the 21st century in the original world, this is already the coldest temperature in winter. At night.
What is more terrifying than low temperature is low temperature + wind. In the air, when the airship is driving, it is easier to experience the effect of this cold wind.
Of course Kane is not afraid, but he will put himself in the shoes of the British thugs who have taken refuge and consider some issues...
