This world, the sky is dark, and several black crows are screaming in the sky.

The sun will never rise from the east. This is an eternal night. There is only a starry sky, and it radiates a dim light above the head.

In order to adapt to the low-light environment, everyone's eyes are larger than the real world, especially girls. Like the characters in the anime world, the eyes are large and beautiful. The main reason is that the larger the pupil, the more sensitive it is to the perception of light.

"Steam age, there is no day, a strange world ..." Zhang Yuan exhaled a stale gas in his chest.

He has been quietly living here for 18 years. At the beginning, like the last world, he had a certain autistic tendency. However, with the awakening of self-consciousness, this condition has completely improved.

He looked up at the starry sky in the distance, and he easily recognized the so-called "North Star".

的 The starry sky here is completely different from that on Earth. "North Star" is just a similar term in astronomy, and it is commonly used in navigation.

The world still has no abilities and magic. What he calls "golden fingers" is a very good nobleman, a strong body, and some mechanical design drawings about the steam age.

Well, in addition to being of good origin, this "golden finger" is really better than nothing. Zhang Yuan even felt that the knowledge in his mind was more effective than any mechanical drawing.

He turned his head and looked at a meniscus just above. The shadow of the moon was actually because the sun itself was obscured by the earth.

也就是说 "That is to say, this planet is still a sphere, so the outline of the moon being blocked is an arc shape."

Because there is no sunlight, the number of people that can be supported on this land is not large. According to the information currently known, the several continents of the entire world add up to only 100 million people.

The vast majority of people do not live well.

On the table is a small globe, made by Zhang Yuan based on local nautical images, half dark and half bright. Due to the harsh environment of the planet itself, only one-tenth of the area that humans have explored.

"This place has no day, only night, then there is only one possibility ... this planet has been locked by the central star tide, so the side of the rising sun is always day and the other is always night. We humans live at night . "

锁定 Tidal lock is a very common phenomenon in astronomy. For example, the moon always faces the earth on the same side. The tide-locked celestial body makes one revolution around its axis, which is equivalent to the revolution period.

So, this planet is actually illuminated, and at least half of the area has light.

So why don't humans live in the light bands of the planet?

The reason is that the planet is too close to the central star, and the illuminated side is extremely hot. Humans cannot survive the high temperature in the light belt. They can only live on the dark side where the temperature is suitable ...

"What a miserable world!"

However, according to the logical perspective of physical rules, there must be no such tragic civilization in the universe ... even if it is currently only a virtual world.

Zhang Yuan is thinking about what he can do to change this civilization ...

For him, it is already a habitual thinking.

"Master, you should prepare the ball for the Duke of Valta ... time is up." The elderly deacon interrupted Zhang Yuan's thinking and made a unique noble manners.

好的 "Okay, thank you for your reminder." Zhang Yuan nodded, under the servant's service, put on dresses and shoes, and quickly stepped on a steam locomotive.

In this world, due to his good intentions, he is already an "Earl". His cheap dad, one year ago, died of a shipwreck, and then the queen awarded her hereditary title to Zhang Yuan ... This should be regarded as part of the "golden finger", which allows him to live without hard work. Live a very rich life.

The plutonium engine burst into smoke and the steam locomotive started, but it was not as trembling as imagined, indicating that the steam car here has been improved for many generations.

Here is Boulder, the most eastern city on the mainland. The annual temperature is about 24-26 degrees Celsius, which is very suitable for human living. The only disadvantage is that there is no sunlight.

The warm ocean current from the western light belt, with a steady stream of fish and algae, is also a source of food for urban residents.

出发 From Boulder, the further west you go, the closer to the light, the hotter the weather becomes.

Five hundred kilometers westward is the dusk zone of the planet at the junction of light and darkness. In the twilight zone, the temperature is already as high as 40 degrees Celsius. Humans settle in this area and barely survive, but it is quite uncomfortable. Many animals and plants can live very happily.

怎么 No matter how unsuitable it is for the twilight zone, with the sun, you can grow all kinds of plants naturally, so it becomes a very important plant production base on the west side of the mainland.

不 Some poor people, as well as all kinds of slaves, endured the high temperature and farmed in the twilight zone for a living. Zhang Yuan's family also has a small territory in that area. Of course, he just knew it and didn't see it in person.

Conversely, the farther east you go from Boulder, the colder it will be.

星 The continent of this planet is scarce, and the east is a vast ocean, with annual temperatures around -20 ° C. The coldest place can reach minus 100 degrees Celsius, forming a thick layer of ice, which is the so-called human exclusion zone.

"Call"

Human beings are too difficult ~ www.readwn.com ~ Zhang Yuan exhales gently, rubs his hands, shrugs his nose, and can smell the unique taste of coal burning all the way.

Coal, the most precious substance in the matte world, it means energy, as well as light.

Without coal, there would be no industrial revolution, and without the industrial revolution, human life would be even more miserable. At least now, there are 100 million people living on the mainland and islands. It is said that in ancient times, the entire continent could only live on millions of people.

The steam locomotive is slowly moving on the road. The road surface is laid with coal **** and mixed with asphalt, exuding a scent of sulfide.

The streets were filled with people, and there were dim lights on the roadside. Many people ca n’t afford to light gas lamps in homes. The light source on the street is the only light source for them. Some children are doing their homework by the roadside.

Every household in the Qiang family put some bean sprouts-like plants in front of the door. This kind of hi-negative plants can grow with just a little gas light source. For the common people, vegetables are precious. Anyway, the light source is provided by the government. Why not do it?

"Rum from the Gar Islands! And the freshest 'Antima' ingredients, everything!"

"Portuguese grass just caught, fresh 嘞!"

Many vendors are sipping and doing business on the street. In this downtown area, food, wine, jewellery, and spices from different islands are all available, forming a false, but prosperous picture.
