The correct way to open the sprite

Chapter 453 That Shadow
"Comprehensive inference, the planar creatures that invaded the Great Wasteland should have a high probability of spontaneous hunting behavior, rather than being driven by high-level creatures like the low-level undead in the underworld.

Facing the gate of the plane, our reconnaissance plane has flown to the maximum reconnaissance radius, but we still haven't seen the boundary of the plane.

However, our pilot caught this. "

Herbert handed a photo to Feng Yu, and Feng Yu took a look and found that it was an aerial photo of the horizon of the heavens.

However, due to the influence of the turbulent flow of magic elements in the heavenly sky, it is almost impossible to tell where is the sky and where is the ground.

Fortunately, these have been marked in the later stage, so that Feng Yu can see what it is.

But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that in the photo, the gorgeous sky in the distance of the heaven seems to be blocked by something, leaving a tall shadow in the center of the photo.

The shadow looks like a tall tower or a strange skyscraper. Although it is only a distant silhouette, it gives people a majestic feeling.

Through the comparison of the distance and the height of the shadow, it is indicated under the photo that the height of the shadow contour is about 2000 meters.

Feng Yu took the brain slice and hammered his head vigorously: "It can't be a man-made building, that would be too ridiculous, the building in the dog's house is only more than 800 meters away!"

Cromwell pulled the photo, but then he was also stunned, Feng Yu asked: "Do you know what that is?"

Cromwell looked at the photo and shook his head: "Because of the special reason of the magic riot in the heavens, even the saints of the elves have never entered the plane of the heavens.

It's you, what are you talking about, don't you know what this is? "

Feng Yu shook his head and said, "I mean, this kind of thing is unlikely to be built by intelligent life, because it is too high, it is estimated to be about 2000 meters.

And in my hometown, the tallest building is only 800 meters high, which is not even half the height of this thing.

You know, after the height of the building reaches a certain level, it is difficult to continue to increase due to the limitations of the foundation, materials, and construction methods..."

As Feng Yu talked, he found that both Cromwell and Herbert looked at him in shock.

"what happened?"

Cromwell said in surprise: "You just said, how tall is your tallest building?"

It’s no wonder that Cromwell and Herbert were surprised. Although the buildings in Cattail City were all because of Feng Yu, Feng Yu never told them what the buildings in their own world were like. They just thought that Feng Yu’s world The high-rise buildings are also like that.

But today, they actually learned from Feng Yu that their building was 800 meters high. You must know that the buildings in Cattail City that amazed all the intelligent beings in Gryen are usually only five or six stories high, only 20 meters high .

"800 meters, what's the matter, we have a lot of tall buildings over 500 meters."

Cromwell asked: "How tall is the building I live in?"

"Sixth floor, it should be 20 meters."

"Forty buildings stack up so high, what do you think is wrong?"

Feng Yu spread his hands: "It's normal, I don't know why you are surprised."

Seeing the surprised looks of Cromwell and Herbert, Feng Yu said that the bottoms are very comfortable.

"Are you kidding me?"

"Is it worth it? We have a lot of skyscrapers, otherwise how can we put down so many people? The most populous city in my hometown has a permanent population of more than 3000 million.

Without tall buildings, how could a city accommodate so many people. "

Herbert murmured in surprise: "3000 million, a few species add up, and there is no city with a large population..."

Feng Yu said: "You have to understand, just like Cattail City, with the development of technology and the liberation of productivity, the population will slowly gather in big cities.

Therefore, the higher the level of technological development, the larger the city, which is also a trend.Cattail City is absorbing a few species, and this trend is already evident.

It would be impossible to house so many residents if we followed the small one-story houses we used to build. That's why we started building tall buildings.

However, due to technical reasons and plane wars at the time, I didn't design the floors so high.

With the current level of technology and construction capabilities of our Cattail City, we are fully capable of building [-] to [-]-story high-rise buildings, but there is no need for that for the time being.

When the plane war is over, we have to build a few tall buildings anyway, but I personally don't like a living environment that is too tall. "

Herbert and Cromwell did not listen to Feng Yu's nonsense, but sighed: "How tall is an 800-meter-high building?"

Feng Yu said: "When the clouds are low, half of the buildings are inside the clouds."

Cromwell said: "No, in that case, wouldn't it be attacked by lightning?"

Feng Yu asked back: "Do you think that the six-story building you live in now has no lightning protection device? What is the lightning rod on the roof for? Isn't it for lightning protection?!"

Cromwell was speechless.

Feng Yu pointed to the shadow outline on the photo and said: "If this thing is really built by intelligent life, whether it is by means of magic, technology, or other means, it is not something we can afford. .”

Cromwell said: "With just one building, can we conclude that they are better than us?"

"Of course, the materials science, structural mechanics and other technologies required by super tall buildings represent the achievements of a civilization.

If we can build a 800-meter-high building, we can already rush out of the cradle, let alone a 2000-meter-high building.

Don't think that buildings are built on top of each other. The best concrete and steel bars we use now cannot build a 200-meter-tall building. "

Cromwell said: "Maybe it wasn't built, maybe it was a mountain or something, who knows, the picture is not clear."

"Whatever it is, it's a long way off and we have to prepare for the worst before we get there.

We have to modify a long-range reconnaissance plane first, and get closer to see what that thing is, otherwise we will not feel at ease staying in this heaven. "

Herbert nodded: "Indeed, this kind of unknown danger is the most terrifying."

Feng Yu asked: "Has the soul fire missile been tested in the heaven?"

Herbert said: "Soulfire missiles can't work, the energy riot here, the internal program of Soulfire will be destroyed here, but our ballistic missiles can be used.

It's just that we don't yet have ballistic missiles capable of striking far enough to carry atomic weapons. "
