Chapter 1032: Human Self-Rescue
The achievements made by countless people in China through tireless work day and night should not be allowed to be slandered by others.
Recently, thanks to the methods taught by Jun Wuduan and others, a large number of key personnel who have stepped into the threshold of cultivation have been recruited. The official body, which has also attracted a large number of outstanding talents by the attraction between the same sex, is now standing taller than anyone else.
Faced with such slander, the only response was a smile: "Our country has a history of thousands of years; it's not surprising that all sorts of talented people have emerged. Years ago, people abroad were saying that everyone in my country knew kung fu and could fly—and those things are certainly true. It's just that we were humble and low-key back then, and didn't like to flaunt these unremarkable things."
They were practically ready to point at those who questioned them and call them ignorant and unacceptable.
After responding, the official response even included a video, allowing those who had doubts to see what it truly meant to scale walls and ride the waves.
This response was met with great joy and celebration in China, who treated it like a holiday and expressed their delight.
But not long after that, another huge challenge gradually approached everyone.
After experiencing mutations and natural disasters, the climate around the world has begun to undergo tremendous changes.
Some already cold areas experienced heavy snowfall, torrential rain, and temperatures plummeted to record lows, while some areas that were normally warm suddenly experienced terrifyingly high temperatures.
Indoor temperatures can soar to fifty or sixty degrees Celsius, let alone outdoors, where the ground temperature climbs directly to seventy or eighty degrees Celsius. People dare not go out at all; if you go outside for less than a minute, you feel like you're being roasted alive.
Such extreme weather occurs in various parts of China and around the world.
"This weather is unbelievable. I can sweat all over even indoors. If I go outside, I'll be roasted alive."
"Isn't that right? The air conditioning is on full blast and it's still so hot it's easy to get heatstroke. If we went outside or stayed in a room without air conditioning, we'd probably die from the heat!"
"I heard that someone has already died from the heat. These past two days, everyone in the department has been going out to register information at night when there is no sun. Otherwise, let alone rescuing people, they probably wouldn't even make it to the destination before they themselves die."
"I used to think the myth of ten suns was exaggerated, but now when I think about it, I feel suffocated. If one sun is so hot, ten suns could probably burn a person to a crisp!"
"Xiao Wu, I remember the climate in your hometown is quite nice, it shouldn't be as hot as here, right?"
"Don't even mention it, what's so great about it? It's unbearably hot here, but it's snowing back home!"
"Snow? Seriously? Isn't this summer? What snow? Are you kidding us?"
"Why would I tease you? It's on the news. The old saying goes, 'Snow in June,' and I never thought I'd actually see it, especially such heavy snow that's blocking the roads. Back home, there's no electricity or water, and trucks delivering supplies can't get in. I've been so worried these past few days, I don't know how things are now."
"Hey, it really is! It's even on the news. Snow in the middle of summer, and so heavily at that, it's unheard of. Plants and animals are changing, and the weather is changing too. Is this really leaving no way for us to survive? I don't know how long this situation will last. If it continues like this, we'll either die from the heat or the cold, or we'll starve, thirst, or die of depression."
Similar conversations occurred in various places, causing concern among people in the disaster-stricken areas, as well as among Xiao Jihui, Ye Wanxi, and others.
They can at least help deal with mutations in plants and animals, but how can they handle climate change? They can't exactly shoot down the sun like Hou Yi, can they?
Not only could they not do it, but even if they could, they wouldn't dare.
However, as the saying goes, there are always more solutions than problems. After a long and agonizing discussion, Ye Wanxi and the others finally came up with the idea of the advanced technology that Ye Wanxi had.
Ye Wanxi's storage ring contained many experimental items that her second senior brother had made when he first started refining magical artifacts. Among them were a few low-level magical artifacts that he had made in case Ye Wanxi got too cold or too hot.
Although most of these magical artifacts are unfinished products and are practically useless to Ye Wanxi, who entered the field early and can regulate her body temperature independently without being affected by external objects, they are perfectly suited to her current situation!
Ye Wanxi gave the item to Xiao Jihui that same day. Unfortunately, the principle behind this thing was not something that could be explained logically. Xiao Jihui handed the item over to professionals to study for several days, but they still couldn't figure it out.
Fortunately, it doesn't matter if we can't figure this thing out, because there's someone who can make these things right now.
So, Xiang Yueqi, who had finally finished teaching and thought he could rest for a few days, was conscripted into the army.
Xiang Yueqi, forced to work overtime: "..." I really thank you all!
With Xiang Yueqi's help, the research, which had been stalled for several days, finally made progress. Half a month later, several huge cooling water machines and heating machines that relied on solar energy to accumulate heat appeared in the sky above the disaster area and began to operate diligently, spraying water to cool down and heating to melt the snow.
When people saw this thing, they all thought it was a new technological product, but only those who participated in the relevant research knew that its working principle and appearance were indeed technological products.
However, the core engine of this machine uses a magical artifact crafted by Xiang Yueqi from spirit stones. The combination of the two is truly a cutting-edge technology!
The appearance of these two items greatly alleviated their respective disasters and made people in other places who had suffered greatly from them drool with envy.
Some countries that were recently proven wrong are now immediately raising the banner of a community with a shared future, demanding that their countries release their technologies free of charge to benefit the public.
These words made many people laugh in anger, and they cursed them for being shameless.
It's impossible to give it away for free. If you want it, just buy it. As for whether a substitute will be developed after it's sold, no one is worried about that.
The core of this thing lies in the magical artifact and the combination of the artifact and the machine; the rest of the principles and structure have long been common knowledge.
People outside may not even know what cultivating immortality is, so expecting them to cultivate magical artifacts on their own would probably take decades or even centuries.
Given the current situation, it's uncertain whether we can survive until then if we don't buy.
After learning that the disaster situation in various places had been effectively alleviated, Xiao Jihui breathed a sigh of relief and finally understood the meaning of what Ye Wanxi had said back then.
Nature is saving itself, and so is humanity.
The reason why people can survive in this world for so long and even thrive is because of their indomitable spirit.
Even if they are caught off guard and fall into a disadvantageous position, they will try their best to survive and find a way to turn the tide.
If one person can't do it, then two people will; if two people can't do it, then three, ten, hundreds, or thousands of people will. As long as there are people alive, there is still hope.
