Chapter 131 Man and Nature

"By the way, what happened to the test machine and the Lightning Man?" Masaki Keigo blocked the underground ruins, and Castor teleported directly to the ground, "The reason for the mutation is the darkness or"

"Although the darkness catalyzed the mutation of the Lightning Man, the main reason for the mutation is human interference with the ionosphere."

Casto shook his head and looked towards the distant sky, which was the direction where the test machine fell.

Although Casto was the first to see the Lightning Man, Dr. Mizuno is the one who has studied the Lightning Man the most in the world.

Dr. Mizuno never planned to betray mankind from the beginning to the end. What he wanted to do was to drive the glowing plane and take the Lightning Man to the universe to find a new home.

He is actually an animal protectionist in a broad sense. Of course, unlike those crazy animal protectionists, Dr. Mizuno is a science-based animal protectionist.

What he wants to protect is not those cute cats and dogs, but the ecological environment of the entire earth.

Of course, the circle of this ecological environment also includes the legendary Lightning Man.

Due to human destruction, habitat loss and other factors, the proportion of endangered species on the earth is increasing at an alarming rate.

Before the industrial society, one species of birds became extinct every 300 years on average, and one species of beasts became extinct every 8000 years; but since the industrial society, the rate of extinction of species on the earth has exceeded the natural extinction rate by 1000 times.

In the world, 1/8 of plants, 1/4 of mammals, 1/9 of birds, 1/5 of reptiles, 1/4 of amphibians, and 1/3 of fish are all endangered.Therefore, the protection of animals is urgent, and the whole world is calling for the protection of animals.The core content of animal protection is the prohibition of cruelty, mutilation of any animal, and the prohibition of hunting and predation of wild animals.

All natural species and their communities are adapted to the local environmental conditions. As long as the conditions remain unchanged, they can survive for a long time. Even if they spread or shrink, the process is slow and gradual.

However, the intensification of human activities has broken this eternal balance, leading to the extinction of species, and natural disasters are also part of the reason.

Mizuno will not stop people from eating meat, nor will they stop human animal husbandry and slaughter. As a scientist, he knows that this is what people without brains will do. Human beings have developed to this day, and they have come out of the jungle step by step. Absolutely not In order to live with animals on an equal footing.

He just hopes that human beings can find a way of development that is in balance with nature.

In this era of rapid development of human society, there is a price behind everything, and it sounds like no matter how noble a doctrine is, it is full of interests. A pure protectionist like him who has no collusion with any interests has become a If he is a different kind, those animal protection agencies don't recognize him, and those ordinary people can't understand him.

Fortunately, his student Horii successfully manufactured a translator capable of talking to animals, and he also participated in and promoted the establishment of TPC.

With the establishment of TPC, human beings began to stop the life of struggle for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. Peace seemed to rise at any time, new trends of thought began to emerge, and human society began to reflect on the past development methods. , in the face of those disasters from nature, human society began to consider a better attitude towards life.

Everything seems to be moving in a good direction. Dr. Mizuno feels that it seems unnecessary to look for those lightning people. As long as the time is right, there will be a day when human society and lightning people will live in harmony.

But just when he gave up the research related to the Lightning Man and started to turn to other research directions, Dagu came back with the latest records about the Lightning Man.

No one could notice that there was anything wrong with the videos and pictures brought back by Dagu, except him.

In the dark clouds photographed by Dako, a huge shadow always surrounds Dr. Mizuno's heart. This shadow presses him, presses him, and finally makes him fly the plane into the sky.

Dagu looked at the test machine that had begun to recover in front of him. Human beings are too fragile. The test machine fell from the sky and became torn apart, but it only took a few days to recover, but Dr. Mizuno couldn’t even wake up. can't do it.

After that meeting ended, Dr. Mizuno's affairs seemed to be forgotten, everything was brought out of order, and no one chose to counterattack. Everything in the past was buried together in the past like a wrong idea at the wrong time.

But Dagu didn't think so. Every time he closed his eyes, the scene of meeting Dr. Mizuno in the hangar for the last time was in his mind, and he couldn't fall asleep.

Dako felt that he had a lot of problems, but both Masaki Keigo and Casto seemed to have disappeared, and they couldn't be contacted no matter what.

Finally, Dagu came to the hangar, and he wanted to know what the mutation Dr. Mizuno was talking about.

Dagu walked past the testing machine and began to walk deeper, where another plane was parked. It was the plane used by Dr. Mizuno to study the Lightning Man project a few years ago. Designed for ionospheric activities, it has been grounded because no suitable project can be found.

Dr. Mizuno did not give up the plane. On the contrary, he told Dagu more than once in the hangar that he would let the plane take off again in the future.

Dagu knew that Dr. Mizuno spent half his life in this plane, and he hoped to find something different from what he brought back.

But what surprised Dagu was that there seemed to be someone on the plane.

"Da Gu, are you here?"

"Urori, why are you here?"

Dagu looked at the screen of Horii's handheld computer connected to the plane, and numbers were constantly scrolling on it, and he asked, "What is this? Is it an electronic code?"

"This is a secret that the teacher left in the plane, and he didn't want to reveal it." Hori shook his head, "I just noticed that, I thought the teacher might have never discovered the Lightning Man, but now I think about how it is possible What? It’s fine if this kind of creature doesn’t exist, but if it exists, how could the teacher not find it in the ionosphere every day?”

"You mean Dr. Mizuno deliberately concealed the existence of the Lightning Man?"

No, it's not a deliberate concealment, Dagu thought, after all, Dr. Mizuno has been telling the outside world about the Lightning Man, as if he knew about the existence of this thing a long time ago, but he didn't want to admit it directly.

"He kept all the things that can be used as evidence, such as those pictures and videos, and only released some corners and corners as evidence." Hori looked at the constantly analyzing screen, "He probably wanted to Let humans get used to the Lightning Man first, and then tell the truth little by little after human society finds a way to balance with nature."

"It can't be done, the password used by the teacher is too high-end." Hori shook his head.

Dagu frowned, thought for a long time, and then said, "Actually, can we trust the other members of the winning team?"

"It's possible, but" Hori was a little uncertain, "But, will they support us?"

"I will!" Dagu nodded, "That's why I joined the victory team."
