Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 549 It is the World of Mud and Trees

After hearing Zhang Zhi's story, Zhou Yi's first thought was that it was no accident that this guy was able to lead the Free Army to grow stronger under pressure from all sides.

They learn by doing, and they can focus on doing any job very well.

With his fearless spirit of leading from the front, Zhang Zhi was able to make a name for himself even when he was doing hard labor around the Sun Wall.

This is equivalent to turning a temporary worker into a formally employed talent through exceptional recruitment.

Zhou Yi asked him, "You can't stay here for long, can you?"

Zhang Zhi nodded: "I can see the countdown. The total time I can stay is one year."

"That is not bad."

"No. It's that I only have one year of my life."

Zhang Zhi explained, "My job is to work around the solar wall, leading the other workers in repairing it. Because we developed a gem-building device that can connect gem cells in a prefabrication-like manner, which greatly improves efficiency."

Zhou Yi frowned: "Actually, I don't quite understand. If efficiency is the priority, why don't the Celestials use Transformers to build the wall, but instead ask Earth life forms to do it?"

"Because we ourselves are part of the wall."

Zhang Zhi gave a wry smile: "When I first arrived, I thought that only mistakes and shirking work would get bricked up in the wall. Later, I asked many of my fellow workers and found out that it wasn't that simple."

"In fact, no matter what, we will eventually become part of the solar wall, and the workers are also materials. It's just that the order of installation and construction is different."

“Unqualified workers will be the first to be made into gemstone wall bricks. The gemstone wall bricks made by workers have complete and complex life characteristics. When they are charged, they can transfer energy. When the entire wall enters the red cycle, these wall bricks also serve the function of memory and recording.”

Zhou Yi suddenly realized.

So that's how it's designed.

indeed.

Intelligent life is itself an extremely sophisticated natural instrument.

Even the light core giants created by the Celestials, and even the gem transmuters, could clearly sense that they could not reach the precision of natural life.

Zhang Zhi took out a cigarette case from his pocket and put a cigarette in his mouth.

He inhaled slightly, and the cigarette butt ignited spontaneously without wind, turning red.

"According to Shanyang, the work efficiency there used to be very high, and the workers could easily connect the gem cells. But now it is much more difficult."

"The solar wall has several layers, and it is built outward layer by layer."

"The sun over there will produce bursts of high-energy radiation, and there is also a kind of gravitational energy that can tear apart local solar walls and emit very special light. The gemstone bricks will also be damaged... Now these situations are getting more and more serious."

Zhou Yi suddenly had a thought: "Has the sun ever emitted purple light?"

Zhang Zhi was taken aback: "How do you know? This should only be visible around the solar wall."

Zhou Yi immediately asked Xiao Fu.

"Does the sun turn purple before it's destroyed?"

Xiaofu said, "No. The purple light phenomenon should be the external manifestation of some substances being converted into energy. It is an extremely rare event, and this is the first time I've heard of it."

"It's more like the civilization of the White King, where the sun explodes and instantly creates a few minutes of high temperature and brightness, impacting every nearby star, and then quickly entering a dark age."

Zhou Yi's gaze sharpened upon hearing this: "An extremely low probability event... Could the Mud Tree Civilization be located within the solar system?"

Based on the endpoints of space passages on Earth, the Moon, Mars, and Jupiter are definitive locations.

So the world of mud and trees may also be within the range of solar radiation.

"What you're saying makes a lot of sense."

Xiao Fu thought for a moment: "A spatial passage can connect two spaces, but if it is not a naturally formed giant spatial hole, in most cases it will form a twisted connection with the surrounding space."

"Essentially, it is a kind of stitching of spatial regions formed by the mutual radiation of energy from different celestial bodies."

“Stars like the Sun, with sufficient energy intensity, can form giant space holes with other stars, which is the basis for circular flow bursts and impact coverage.”

"Technically speaking, the Mud Tree World should be located within this solar system."

Zhou Yi turned to Zhang Zhi and said, "I have something urgent to do and need to verify it first. Let's arrange a time to meet again."

Zhang Zhidao said, "I will come to see you again after that day."

"it is good."

The two of them split up.

Zhou Yi immediately summoned Nige and Dongshi for questioning.

"You mean our world? It's... neither cold nor hot, I guess."

Nig crossed his arms: "Apart from the Purple Sun, there are Dead Seas formed by circular currents everywhere. There is no land in the whole world, only Dead Seas, as well as Pan Tree and Sky-reaching Tree."

"However, there are huge whirlpools over there, which I found to be absent on Earth."

Zhou Yi asked what that was.

"It's a giant vortex. Those areas are off-limits and forbidden zones. Like a tornado, it goes straight up into the sky. Once you get in, you can't get out. We explorers have marked these giant vortexes, but we can't determine the exact number because sometimes they move and sometimes they disappear. There are probably thousands of them."

Zhou Yi then asked, "Are those big whirlpools blue?"

Nig was taken aback: "Chairman, how did you know?" "Also, there should be a large red area in your Dead Sea."

Zhou Yi continued to ask for confirmation: "Are there still many storms and lightning?"

"Chairman, you're amazing! You're completely right!"

Nig looked at him incredulously: "Did you use mind reading?"

"Don't talk nonsense."

Zhou Yi didn't have time for idle chatter: "Yes or no?"

"Yes."

The Mud Tree Man nodded: "We do have the situation you described, but it's not like that in all areas... The deep Dead Sea there is much more viscous and extremely cold, so we need to be very careful when we go in. The seabed is very dangerous, with immense pressure."

"And then there are the trees. Unlike here, the trees on this side of Earth grow in the soil, but the trees over there grow in the currents and drift around. Trees are our mobile boats and homes. So controlling the movement of the Sky-Reaching Tree is also a complex project, which is being done by the naturalists of the Tree Department."

Zhou Yi then confirmed this further with the Dong family.

Although they are not readable records, several of the cave dwellers' equipment contained user manuals that described various usage environments and explained some basic information.

“Mr. Jay, what you said is basically consistent with the manual.”

“The world we cave people live in has deep layers of mud and soil, which we use to create recording sites through excavation and various methods.”

"Besides, the Great Whirlpool does indeed exist, only it has a different name in the cave people's descriptions. We named this natural phenomenon 'rotation machine,' and it was once used as a processing tool. Solid clouds and palaces were made from it."

"It has enormous and astonishing energy, with different rotation speeds, and its bottom connects to the depths of the circular flow."

These two provided a lot of supporting information.

However, definitive evidence is still lacking.

Just as Zhou Yi was hesitating, Xiao Fu suddenly said, "Da Zhou, have you forgotten about the Sun Eye? Let Nige use that to take a look, wouldn't that confirm it?"

"The solar eye view not only allows you to see the sun, but also other celestial bodies radiating from it. Because it is designed to find paths, it is a super telescope."

Zhou Yi was overjoyed.

He quickly took Nig and rode the Black Ferry to the moon.

The White King and Nig shared the connection of the pupillary body.

The sun's eye focuses on the target.

Inside the Black Man's core, Nig's body trembled slightly.

"A giant whirlpool!"

"Red Storm!"

"And the circular flow..."

"This is...this is...my hometown..."

The Mud Tree Man's eyes were somewhat vacant as he said blankly, "So my hometown is so close... This is what it looks like from the air."

"The trees have all disappeared... The Mud Tree People are indeed gone."

He came to his senses and looked at Zhou Yi: "Chairman, that is indeed my hometown, the world of the Mud Tree People. I'm very sure of it."

Zhou Yi was finally able to confirm it.

The world of mud and trees is Jupiter.

"Those blue vortexes are all celestial beings; they are the various working parts of Jupiter."

The Mud Tree Man was dumbfounded, but he quickly showed some doubt: "But that's not right... Chairman, if we live on Jupiter, we can see the purple sun and fragments of it, so why can't we see them on Earth? I heard Canghai Jun say that Earth is closer to the sun than Jupiter, right?"

Zhou Yi said, "Jupiter is special. It is a giant structure with a celestial-human unit, capable of capturing solar dust and having special reactions with the sun, which is a capability that neither Earth nor other celestial bodies possess."

There are now 160 columnar structures, possessing one-quarter of the clarity and effect of the basic solar eye.

It can further expand the scope of observation targets.

Zhou Yi could see it clearly through his sun eye.

A distorted, wavy region surrounds the surface of Jupiter, like a powerful force field, which is gathering the surrounding dust and meteorites.

Numerous tiny fragments turned purple there and were absorbed into the atmosphere on the surface of the star.

These are all solar dust, which the cave dwellers also considered to be ominous stars.

The sun sometimes ejects material that turns purple, while Jupiter sometimes transforms some of its material into purple.

The two are clearly related in some way.

Xiao Fu suddenly exclaimed, "I know! The Great Zhou Dynasty!!!"

"I know what Jupiter is now!"

"It's an artificial sun!!!"
