Chapter 2631 Mayfly World (31)
The following farming process went smoothly. The seeds sprouted soon after being buried. The star god invited by Schiller rained twice more. Clark and Magneto fertilized the land at a suitable time. The corn seedlings changed every day.
In addition to corn, they also planted wheat, but because it was the wrong season, they did not hold much hope.
The remaining important task was to build a greenhouse to grow vegetables. After all, mutants also need vitamin C and fiber, and vegetables are indispensable.
In fact, with the climate conditions in Mexico, it is completely possible to grow vegetables outdoors, but the Andromeda Galaxy is not. The temperature of the planet chosen by Magneto is a bit low, and the vegetables are particularly delicate and fragile. In the end, a greenhouse must be built. Magneto can also take this opportunity to learn how to build a greenhouse.
Building a large greenhouse is relatively troublesome. Clark picked a piece of land and the locals helped find a construction company, but because of the climate, few people here build this kind of thing. There were many mistakes at the beginning, and Clark was there watching day and night.
After observing for a while, Magneto thought that he might as well use magnetism to transform the ecological environment of an entire planet. This kind of thing is too troublesome.
Then Clark realized that Magneto's control over magnetism was far beyond his imagination. Since he could use magnetism to directly transform the environment, why not?
But Magneto also has his own concerns. Transforming the environment is not a one-time thing. If the magnetic field of a planet is forcibly changed, it will trigger a series of chain reactions. In serious cases, it may even cause the disintegration of the planet. There are not many planets with suitable locations and sizes. It is not worth it to damage a few more.
In addition, if Magneto controls the magnetic field of the planet, he can indeed ensure that the environment is very suitable for the survival of plants, but it is not very suitable for human needs. The planet may become less habitable, and no one will farm at that time. After all, he can't farm there for a lifetime.
Clark understands Magneto's concerns, but he thinks that since he has such a powerful ability, it is a bit of a waste of talent to farm like ordinary people. How can the powerful abilities of mutants be transformed into infrastructure capabilities? Is there no successful example to refer to?
At this time, Clark thought of the distant oriental country that Schiller had told him before. He once again used his journalistic ability and began to search the Internet for various news about Chinese mutants.
Found that foreign news was basically all smears and slanders. Clark learned to climb over the firewall without a teacher. Of course, it was also because it was relatively simple to climb over the firewall. He could climb over the firewall physically.
Whenever he wanted to access China's intranet, he flew to the junction of Hong Kong and Shenzhen, connected to the public network of the business district over there, and then he could browse the information of China's intranet smoothly.
Clark stayed in Shenzhen for most of the day, found a lot of information, entered it all into his mobile phone, and took it back to show Magneto.
The two studied these news reports for a long time, and then they realized that the abilities of mutants in this country were divided very detailed, and each type was suitable for which work and which link, and they had already had very mature experience.
Take magnetism for example. There are some mutants in China who can control magnetism, but none of them are as strong as Magneto. Most of them can only control part of the magnetism, such as strong magnetism or weak magnetism, or simply act as a large magnet to control metals.
A strong man like Magneto, who has completed the unified field theory and can shape a pocket universe, is much stronger than these mutants with magnetic abilities, but these mutants who are weak in Magneto's eyes have repeatedly appeared in various commendation news.
So far, most mutants with magnetic abilities are serving the military. One of the news is to commend a research team led by someone for making outstanding contributions to the magnetoelectric technology of aircraft carriers.
In addition, there are some relatively weak mutants, such as those who can only sense magnetism or convert positive and negative poles. In Magneto's view, they are not mutants. Most of them work in the maglev train industry, bridge construction industry and other magnetoelectric industries.
This caused Magneto to be more and more dissatisfied with Polaris in the next few days. I have been busy for most of my life. Now I have to lead mutants and build the Andromeda Galaxy all day long, and I have to take care of the earth. You inherited most of my abilities, what are you doing now?
He was a little unfair to Polaris. Polaris did do some serious work recently. Since Magneto ran back, Polaris had to keep an eye on the Andromeda Galaxy to ensure that the planets were running normally. In addition, he had to occasionally go to collect money. After all, supplies were tight and in special times, the old business could not be lost.
This was a huge improvement compared to her before. She finally turned from a street teenager into a normal adult, but she was a little far from the role models reported in these newspapers.
Magneto became more and more angry as he thought about it. Two small surrounding sky islands were built around the capital's star island before. Because the distance was not far and the orbit was stable, Magneto wanted to build a few bridges between these sky islands, but he was always busy and didn't think about it.
He remembered that he had entrusted this task to Polaris. Two years had passed, and the bridge was still nowhere to be found. Look at the news report that such a weak mutant led two or three hundred ordinary people to build a bridge in three months. What kind of work efficiency is this?
In the past, Magneto always thought that Polaris might be born with deficiencies in his mother's womb, and then was frightened, so his own ability was weak and his control was not very good, so he was wandering around all day without doing anything. Magneto didn't care. Anyway, they were all immortals, so he took his time.
Now it seems that Polaris is not only not weak, but also second to none among all the magnetic ability users. He couldn't build a few bridges in two years. Is this a problem of ability? It's a problem of attitude!
As a result, Polaris was called by Magneto to be scolded, and was driven back to the Andromeda Galaxy the next day. Magneto said that if he didn't see the two bridges before he returned, they would go to Centauri together and never come back.
The more Magneto read these reports, the more he realized that the ability level of mutants in this world might be slightly different from what he imagined.
But he can't be blamed for this. After all, he is born the strongest mutant. His confidant is another strongest mutant. Their children, students and friends are all ridiculously strong.
But so many strong people have not achieved anything when they get together, which makes them feel that it is all because of the discrimination and intervention of ordinary people that they have achieved nothing and spent too much time on self-pity.
But as long as you look down, you will find that there are too many mutants who are much weaker than them. Because of the editorial department outside the fourth wall, basically except for these few strongest mutants and their relatives and friends, basically all the mutants who serve as background boards have no strong abilities. These weak ones represent the majority of mutants.
Maybe it is precisely because they are weak that even self-protection and eating are problems, so they don't have so much energy to complain. Most of them are trying to live. In addition, the environment in a certain country is better, and there are indeed many who have made a name for themselves.
As the saying goes, if you compare goods, you will throw them away; if you compare people, you will die. This comparison makes these powerful mutants seem particularly incompetent and hypocritical.
Of course, the two who hold the right to speak will not admit that they are such people, especially Magneto, who will never admit it. He will only look at these street urchins around him more and more unpleasantly.
Clark's time to climb the wall was a little short last time, and he didn't have time to find more in-depth information. This time he went for a longer time. He stayed in the sky above Shenzhen for almost a whole day and searched all the information about agriculture that he could find.
Then he and Magneto studied it for another night. They found that it was really feasible to transform the environment of a certain place through magnetism, because someone in this country had already experimented with it.
Magneto read several machine-translated papers. Although the translation was irrelevant, he still understood the general idea with his extremely deep understanding of magnetism.
In short, transforming a planet through magnetism cannot directly change the magnetic field of the planet, which will cause many unstable geological changes and may even cause the planet to disintegrate.
On the contrary, it is to affect the planet's magnetic field by changing the planet's structure, because the modification of the geological structure is controllable, and for mutants who can naturally sense the magnetic field, the magnetic field changes caused by the change of the geological structure are also clearly visible, eliminating a series of monitoring and experiments. Compared with ordinary people who use cumbersome scientific methods, it is easy.
The more Magneto read it, the more he felt that it made sense. He thought that this expert should be his soulmate. As a result, after Clark translated it for him, he realized that it was not written by an expert professor at all, but by a college student.
They are not studying mutants, but only mentioned that mutants can complete this work in one of the possibilities of the paper. The whole paper mainly talks about the possibility of affecting the planet's magnetic field by modifying the geological structure.
I have to say that this is a bit too cutting-edge. They have only entered the era of interstellar exploration for only a few years. Have the Chinese already started thinking about transforming alien planets?
After reading the previous part carefully, Magneto found that the college student was studying this for nothing but farming. He discussed how to build a greenhouse on an alien planet to grow common Chinese food ingredients so that he could start farming as soon as the planet was colonized.
Magneto read this paper over and over again and felt that this talent was rare. Although the Lone Star farming system envisioned in it was a fantasy for ordinary people who had not yet walked far from the earth, it was very useful for mutants.
But Magneto could not find this person just by such a specious name. He had no choice but to contact Professor X, hoping to use the special abilities of his old partner to see if he could find this genius boy in the vast sea of people.
Unfortunately, Professor X rejected him.
