The mining of orichalcum is also localized. Not all deep seabeds in the world have this rare ore. In terms of locations, the Kingdom of Atlantis, which has the widest territory, has the least orichalcum. 【6】【9】【s】【h】【u】【x】【.】【c】【o】【m】
So at the beginning, the Kingdom of Atlantis was a major importer of orichalcum. The Kingdom of Kodax, which is dominated by the richness of Orichalcum, is also the legendary Lost Kingdom. The Kingdom of Codax back then was equivalent to OPEC, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, which controlled most of the output of orichalcum... No, it should be said that it was OPEC plus the United States. They accounted for more than seven percent. About ten orichalcum output!
Absolute overlord!
Therefore, the Kingdom of Atlantis, as the nominal heir to the orthodox empire, actually began to study alternatives to orichalcum after it established a foothold. Their original intention was not to protect the environment, but to get rid of the influence of the Kingdom of Kodax. control.
It is also because of this that when the report on orichalcum's devastating impact on the environment came out, the Kingdom of Atlantis was the first to stand up firmly against orichalcum and proposed a new energy plan!
The Kingdom of Kodax naturally politicized this matter directly.
After all, in their view, the so-called environmental protection is just Atlantis' own rhetoric, and they do not believe the reports of those so-called scientists... Doesn't it feel like deja vu? It's very similar to the faces of many groups in the United States.
Polls show that more than half of Americans believe climate change will not affect them. Only 45% of people admit that global warming is a serious problem, but only 43% are worried about climate change.
Many Americans "think climate change is far away," said Ann Leiserowitz, director of Yale University's Climate Change Communication Program. Many people believe that we will not suffer the brunt of climate change until 2050 or 2100, with other countries bearing the brunt and the impact on our own country, state capitals, cities, and even communities being modest. "So, psychologically we think that the climate problem is far away, that it is a drop in the bucket compared to the countless immediate worries. "I am already worried about the cost of medical care. How can I care about the melting of Arctic glaciers? "
But rising temperatures are a fact of life, not just in the Arctic but also in cities, with heat waves becoming more frequent. Extreme weather events, such as forest fires and hurricanes, are also becoming more severe. Scientists believe these disasters are related to global warming. It makes sense: A Gallup poll found that while only 64% of Americans believe global warming is caused by human activity, 97% of climate scientists agree.
Most American adults—including the vast majority of Christians and people who identify with other religions—view the earth as sacred and believe that God has given humans a responsibility to care for it. But highly religious Americans—those who pray daily, attend religious services regularly and consider religion to be important in their lives—are less likely than other U.S. adults to express concern about global warming Much more.
The Kingdom of Kodaksu also had the same idea at the time...history is reincarnation!
After all, based on the world's development level at that time, Kodakx was indeed the most powerful country on earth. They were equivalent to US imperialism of that era.
But it is obvious that the Kingdom of Atlantis has better methods, and they have spread their technology to other countries.
Although other countries also have orichalcum, they only account for 30% of the total output, and they still have to look at the face of the Kingdom of Kodax. And Atlantis holds high the banner of environmental protection... This thing has been politically correct thousands of years ago. It is worthy of being the holy sword of environmental protection. Anyone who cuts it will die.
It has a long history!
Of course, this does not mean that environmental protection is wrong. Orichalcum is not an excuse promoted by some interest groups, but is truly poisoning the environment! So the Kingdom of Atlantis didn't really just find an excuse back then.
But the problem is that the Kingdom of Kodax doesn’t believe it.
In fact, it’s not that I really don’t believe it. As I said before, the ancestors of the Kingdom of Kodaks chose the barren sea area as their own country. This is purely a trap for future generations. Kodaks wants to develop, except for Orichalcum. There is nothing left to take away.
If they listen to the Kingdom of Atlantis, it will no longer be suitable to seal orichalcum and mine orichalcum. They will eat, drink, and develop whatever they want.
To them, their thinking is the same as that of many developing countries today. You developed countries are better off now, you have everything, you have gone through primitive accumulation. In turn, they blame us for destroying the environment and not allowing us to develop.
Yes, you are environmentally friendly, what about us?
If we don’t develop industry, will we always become your colony?
Of course there are essential differences between the two, but the inner logic is similar.
From the king to the common people in the Kingdom of Kodaks, they are all opposed to the sealing of orichalcum and related technologies. After all, the environment is damaged, and they can live well for many years. However, once orichalcum and related technologies are sealed, their country will immediately decline.
Other countries do not have their worries. They are not highly dependent on Orichalcum. The transformation is very simple. It is just that the former Kingdom of Kodax is led by the Kingdom of Atlantis. There is no difference to them.
Furthermore, in terms of customs and emotions, they are more willing to follow the Kingdom of Atlantis.
The Kingdom of Kodax?
Just a nouveau riche from a remote area!
With the promotion of new energy technology, the Kingdom of Kodaksi was forced into a corner. Although their mountain copper has a high cost-effectiveness, it is too polluting. As long as all countries conduct a serious investigation, they can find out the truth.
Although Kodaksi deliberately publicized that it was Atlantis's slander, but... reality is reality.
The only way out for the Kingdom of Kodaksi is to either use force to guarantee its hegemony or accept its fate!
So of course they chose force!
As long as they win, mountain copper or not is a piece of cake!
So an underwater world war began.
In the end, the coalition forces broke through the Kingdom of Kodaksi, and mountain copper and related technologies naturally became a thing of the past.
The mountain copper mined was secretly sealed by various countries until the end of time.
But now these things are actually robbed... To be honest, many people don't know who would want this thing.
After all, their current energy technology is very advanced and mature. Mountain copper... is too old-fashioned. Even if it is robbed, there is no corresponding technology, so why rob it?
…
“Well, what’s the matter?” Kai finally got in touch with the White House.
Although the Atlanteans didn’t want to bother with the land countries, since they knew each other’s existence, it was impossible for them to have no communication channels at all. So the major countries in the world actually still had communication channels with Atlantis.
However, generally speaking, this kind of channel is rarely used.
Well… it’s probably equivalent to leaving each other phone numbers, and never contacting each other except for weddings and funerals.
“Kai… Tianqi has made a move!”
“What did he do?” Kai immediately checked his watch. It was a super smart watch that Tony gave him a long time ago. This thing has been upgraded and modified by Tony over the years. In order to contact Kai anytime and anywhere, Tony installed the latest communication system on it. As long as Kai is still on the surface of the earth, he can contact Kai.
After all, Tony has his own private satellite… In this hellhole of the United States, let alone private satellites, if you have money, you can buy the land of the entire state and directly become a private kingdom!
As for buying the entire United States... this only exists in theory, and Tony can't do it anyway.
Through a private satellite, even Tony can contact Kai. Although the signal is a little worse, it is not so bad that he can't send a few bytes.
But there is no message on it.
"He appeared on the battlefield with the little bully." Benjamin said immediately.
Speaking of which, it was also the first time for Benjamin to communicate with the deep sea through the special machinery of Atlantis. This thing was the same as the president's nuclear button before. Although he had seen it, he had never used it.
After all, Atlantis said that if there is no important matter, don't contact casually.
So Benjamin has never tried it, this is the first time.
"Then what?" Kai was a little anxious, can you speak faster.
Then Benjamin quickly explained the current situation.
He also expressed his concerns.
"Well, it should be mental control." Kai was relieved after hearing it. Kai doesn't really care about the war between Apocalypse and Overlord. No matter how miserable Overlord is, Kai won't care. He is not Overlord's man. What Overlord is like... is none of his business.
What he fears is that Apocalypse will be unhappy and suddenly plan to rule the world one day.
In that case, he must stand up to stop this guy.
If it is just a fight between two countries, Kai's attitude is... whoever dies will contribute to world peace.
"Mind control?!!" Benjamin is not a white man who knows nothing. Benjamin has learned a lot about the various abilities of mutants in written form. He naturally knows about the ability of mind control.
For him, this ability is actually the most annoying.
It can actually control a person without other people knowing. How evil it is!
Of course, this is more related to his position.
After all, he is the President of the United States, and many evil organizations will want to control him. Just like the last time, the Skrulls invaded, didn't they want to capture him and impersonate him?
This is all a stress response!
"But that's an F35! An F35 flying in the sky! Can his mental power do this?"
This is too scary. The maximum flight altitude of the F35 is 15,240 meters, and the flight speed reaches Mach 1.6! This thing was also captured by Tianqi's mental power?
"What's so strange about this? I have given you Tianqi's information. He has many abilities! He doesn't need to use mental power to capture those planes. He just needs to fly to them, or teleport to them, and control them directly."
"Then how should we deal with such abilities?" After Kai said this, Benjamin felt even less secure.
"There is no way to deal with it. Ordinary people can't deal with him at all. I even think that nuclear bombs are useless to him." Teacher Kai said.
To be honest, nuclear bombs are terrible. But they may not be useful to people like them. Apart from anything else, you have to hit people with nuclear bombs, right?
Whether it is Kai or Tianqi, there are ways to escape the range of the nuclear bomb explosion!
If you ask them to resist nuclear bombs, they can't do it. No matter how powerful an existence is, it will be burned to ashes if it withstands a nuclear bomb. However, nuclear bombs are difficult to transport and detonate. They have many ways to avoid them in advance!
"Really?!!" Benjamin was a little scared.
There was no way. For all the monsters, the biggest trump card of mankind was the nuclear bomb. This was always the final solution. With this thing, they would have the confidence.
There was nothing wrong with saying this. The power of the nuclear bomb could indeed do this.
"The power of the nuclear bomb was indeed terrible, but you had to hit the person with this thing. If Apocalypse wanted to run, the nuclear bomb would really be useless to him."
This was also the reason why Kai didn't want to take action in Egypt. Egypt was in the hands of Apocalypse, so Apocalypse had to stay in Egypt and couldn't run around. But if Apocalypse was driven out of Egypt... that would be a big trouble. A person wearing shoes was not terrible because he was afraid of having his shoes taken off. But if he was barefoot, there would be no scruples!
"As for defense, the mutant bodyguards around you should be able to deal with his little tricks, but the premise is that you don't go to him to die! He doesn't dare to take action against you. After all, superheroes are not for show."
Kai said without sincerity.
"Uh..." Benjamin didn't feel comforted.
But he couldn't show it.
"I think you should come back as soon as possible."
Damn it, I called you because I wanted you to come back to protect me, not to ask you to avenge me!!!
"I feel that Tianqi's behavior has begun to get out of control."
This is all nonsense. In fact, I am afraid that Tianqi will really do something messy. If Kai is in China, Benjamin will feel more secure.
"No, there is a problem here in Atlantis. If it goes wrong, it will affect the whole world!"
"What's the problem?" Benjamin sat up straight when he heard this.
"It's all the fault of the little bully! Why don't they do something good? They have to dig out the artifact of Atlantis... Now it's good, the artifact is lost. There is also a problem in the underwater world..."
Kai didn't say the specific problem.
It would be troublesome to say it out.
Maybe there will be all kinds of arguments, so Kai just shut up.
"What happened? If there is a problem, we can deal with it!" Benjamin naturally didn't want to leave his fate to others.
"Someone wants to use this artifact to cause trouble. As for what, I don't know yet. But the underwater world is already in chaos. So I can't leave for the time being." Kai couldn't mention mountain copper. After all, if capital knew about mountain copper in its pursuit of energy, who knows what would happen!
