Volume 2: Chapter 178 We are safe...for now

Yellowstone Volcano is one of the supervolcanoes located in North America.

It is said that if it erupts completely, the huge amount of volcanic ash it stirs up instantly will be enough to be ejected hundreds of kilometers high into the atmosphere.

After that, the large amount of sulfur dioxide contained in it will produce violent chemical reactions in the atmosphere, forming some kind of sulfuric acid compound.

These things reflect sunlight more easily than glaciers.

According to analysis by scientific researchers in related fields, under natural conditions, it would take at least ten years to completely end the "ice age" caused by it.

Yes, this is still the natural state, not counting the global frozen environment that has already taken shape.

But even if we talk about it alone...

Ten years later, the excess carbon dioxide remaining on the earth will turn the extreme cold into extreme heat with continued warming... and this process may even last for thousands of years.

It is really like: ice and fire.

Therefore, inducing the Yellowstone volcano to erupt is theoretically enough to wipe out most of the human race.

It is worth mentioning that Mei, who has been imitating the thinking of the Blood Ruler recently, is so sure that the other party will choose Yellowstone Volcano for a very simple reason.

Yes, there are quite a few supervolcanoes on Earth, and a very few of them are larger than Yellowstone.

But currently, only the "hotspot" inside Yellowstone volcano has the highest index.

This is the vapor pressure that has slowly accumulated over the centuries.

After the actual explosion, the initial kinetic energy that shot directly for hundreds of kilometers came from here.

and so……

"Since we can predict that the current extreme cold weather will significantly reduce the negative impact of the melting glaciers in the North and South Poles, then the Herrscher of Blood, who has seized a large amount of scholars' knowledge, must have also thought of this."

"Therefore, there is probably a 'temple' hidden inside."

"It will be the third 'bomb' besides the two poles."

“It’s even possible that the polar ‘bombs’ won’t explode at all.”

"Those are two pretexts."

Mei's thoughts now are very direct.

Since the Herrscher of Blood intends to start by "destroying the natural environment on which all humanity depends for survival," efficiently killing large numbers of ordinary people and thus causing the current era of human civilization on Earth to collapse from within, then she will forcefully prevent every trend of environmental deterioration.

Today, the New World Snake is unlikely to be able to prevent the eruption of the Yellowstone volcano.

But after the Prometheus suicide force destroyed all the underwater temples, Kevin and others tried their best to freeze the volcanic ash that was ejected in the early stage of the Yellowstone volcano eruption, preventing it from spreading to the world with the air currents.

pity……

"It's a shame the 'Fourth God's Key' from the old days (the current civilization era) wasn't brought to this era. Otherwise, the negative impacts of the ice disaster and the Yellowstone volcanic eruption on the Earth's environment could have been recovered much more quickly."

Mei sighed helplessly.

Of course, she knew that the "Void Treasures" recaptured and held by Prometheus itself could also temporarily replace the role of the Fourth God Key with its mimicry ability.

However, mimicry is only mimicry after all, and "Void Treasures" cannot replace the original God's Key and generate the same level of performance.

Anyway...

"We have done everything we can."

Mei, wearing the "Blank Key", looked down at her chest, at the blue gem embedded in the rotary converter but not yet switched out for use - the core of the Herrscher of Reason, and sighed inwardly.

"As long as we can eliminate one Herrscher, we can buy enough time."

"After that, it will be time for the Herrscher's power, 'Reappearance of Understanding,' to shine."

Mei thought to herself.

immediately……

"唪~唪~唪~唪~"

Four portals opened, and Kevin, Alicia, and their respective memories, a total of four people, all came to Mei.

They had just gathered and didn't even have time to greet each other properly. Kevin didn't even have time to ask about Mei's health or show concern for her before he was directly teleported by Mei to Yellowstone National Park in North America.

Just then...

"Everyone is in place!"

The Prometheus's own report was heard in the communication.

"very good."

Mei ordered, "Begin!"

"Yes!" ×3000+

Almost at the same moment, the more than 3,000 young female figures that were already in position began the countdown to self-destruction.

[Ten, nine, eight, seven...]

At this moment, everyone held their breath.

They are all waiting for a result.

It's not just Mei, Kevin and others.

Even the Herrster of Blood, Kali, and even the Herrster of Thunder...

Both sides raised the corners of their mouths.

They are looking forward to a sequel.

【three two……】

"Who says there can't be more pretenses after one pretense?"

"And the so-called 'truth' you discovered might just be the version I wanted you to see."

At a certain moment, Kali suddenly spoke.

At the same time, the Herrscher of Thunder also narrowed his eyes.

"We won, humans!" ×2

【one!!!】

"Boom!" ×3333

With the Prometheus itself, which had previously embarked on the path of "intelligence," serving as the communication hub... Almost at the same time, all the female humanoids participating in the mission abandoned their temporary bodies and completed self-destruction.

For a moment, the entire earth was shaking slightly.

Yellowstone Volcano…near the closed crater.

"..."

Kevin, Alicia, and their memories, who were on high alert, all frowned subconsciously.

The imagined volcanic eruption scene did not appear.

No, that's not right!

"Kaka~"

At a certain direction, the gravel beside Alicia's feet suddenly trembled.

She was keenly aware of this small detail.

"coming!"

Alicia said this during the communication.

Immediately afterwards...

"Kakakaka~"

The frequency of the earth shaking became more and more obvious.

In an instant, Kevin and his three companions, who were currently located at the four corner points around the Yellowstone crater, activated their respective ice abilities.

Mei had done a virtual simulation of this in advance with the help of Prometheus itself.

The results showed that even Kevin, a "returner", was able to barely freeze all the volcanic ash erupting from the Yellowstone volcano after giving it his all.

But after this, Kevin will be exhausted.

After all, a fusion warrior cannot use the Herrscher core like a "key" to communicate with the imaginary space at all times like a living Herrscher, and thus obtain subsequent energy replenishment continuously.

To put it bluntly: no matter how much mana Kevin has, his mana recovery speed is not as fast as that of a real Herrscher.

Otherwise, before the current civilization era, when he had just left the Quantum Sea and returned to the original world, he would not have had to "eat" Chi You to restore his strength.

Therefore, the reason why we are sending three other people to the scene to assist is, on the one hand, to ensure that the subsequent hidden dangers here can be eliminated without fail.

on the other hand……

"Now that we have the Herrscher of Thunder, a huge problem, with her ridiculous speed, she's very likely to take advantage of Kevin's misfortune after he's given it his all."

By imitating the Herrscher's way of thinking, Mei thought of this possibility.

Both publicly and privately, she couldn't just watch Kevin get into danger, nor could she let such an important fighting force like Kevin get into an accident.

Therefore, the collaborative value of memory Kevin, Alicia, and the latter's memory is to share the pressure for Kevin and take care of each other.

That's it...

"boom!"

As expected, after a large number of young female humanoids exploded together and all the underwater temples were destroyed, no thermobaric explosion occurred at the North and South Poles at all.

Instead, as Mei expected, the Yellowstone volcano erupted violently.

In just a moment, the covered crater began to bulge and then crack.

Then, when the underground pressure reached a peak, the Yellowstone volcano was like a balloon with a tape on it that was punctured in half, and most of the sediment stored inside was shot into the sky.

However, it was precisely because of Mei's pre-arrangement...

"Boom~"

Four streams of extremely cold energy instantly swept over the "flame pillar" that shot up into the sky.

"Kakakaka~"

Mei had already told Kevin and the others exactly when to activate their abilities to freeze the pillar of fire in order to minimize the losses.

Neither too early nor too late is good.

Because this was done too early, the high pressure that had accumulated in the Yellowstone volcano for centuries will not subside.

Fortunately, Kevin and others have strong execution capabilities.

They found the perfect time...

"Kakakaka~"

The giant column of volcanic ash turned into a slender ice pillar reaching into the sky, like the Tower of Babel created by God.

They succeeded.

You know, Kevin's ice ability can completely freeze the flames of "Heavenly Fire Judgment" the moment it is released.

Although, ice freezing fire and the like are actually quite magical in themselves.

But this undoubtedly also indirectly highlights the unreasonable nature of Honkai energy.

Now, Kevin and others are using it to fight against nature being exploited by the Herrscher.

For a while...

"Click~"

The icicles, hundreds of kilometers high, were obviously not well "designed" by professional construction engineers.

Because some volcanic ash had already begun to spread from its top, it was top-heavy and would fall over with a single blow.

Now, it's Kevin and others' turn to deal with the subsequent mess.
