It was another bright day. The sun shyly hid behind the mountains. A few strands of golden sunlight shot out from the low gaps where the mountains met, like a golden brocade spread halfway up the mountain. The green trees covered with the brocade were flashing with fine golden light. The mountains were extremely beautiful with layers of deep and light green mixed with gold.
"Why do the trees this year seem so much greener and healthier than in previous years? The air is also so much fresher."
Xiao Bai stretched at the door, did a few stretching exercises, and took a few deep breaths. With daily exercise, his body became more and more relaxed.
The morning air was exceptionally fresh. Xiao Bai moved a small stool and sat at the door, looking at the slowly flowing river in front of the door and listening to the chirping of insects and birds in the mountains. There was no heat island effect in the countryside in the summer, which meant that it was a little hot at noon in summer, but it was still very cool in the morning.
There's really nothing wrong with days like this, except for being broke, Xiao Bai thought, and took out her phone to watch videos and forums, to check out the latest news and information. Although she was in the countryside, she would still keep an eye on the situation outside.
Most of the news focuses on asteroid events. The asteroid hits the blue planet, which has been predicted by the people of the blue planet for a long time. The blue planet officials released information in advance and arranged various interception methods. When the asteroid is about to enter the blue planet's atmosphere, multiple interceptor missiles are launched to push the asteroid away from its original orbit. After it deviates from the orbit, multiple impact missiles are continuously launched to break the asteroid into scattered fragments, and then large fragments are accurately struck. In this way, the damage to the blue planet caused by the falling fragments will be minimized as much as possible.
Even so, in some densely populated areas of the city, many buildings were inevitably damaged. The city was hit by high-speed debris falling from high altitudes, creating deep pits. The fires caused by the falling debris burned the surrounding buildings to ashes.
After the disaster, Blue Planet officials actively deployed rescue measures, evacuated people, and established shelters. The asteroid's impact caused building collapses and widespread fires, injuring many and causing widespread grief. Blue Planet officials promptly arranged for post-disaster medical treatment, distributed relief funds and supplies, and released timely information to reassure the public and control public opinion.
In addition to some official news, many short video platforms are uploaded by users spontaneously, showing scenes of various places on the blue planet being hit by falling planetary fragments, as well as scenes of some fragments such as meteors streaking across the sky.
Some people pray silently at the passing meteor fragments, hoping that the fragments will not fall into their homes; some people cry at their homes burned by the crashed debris, lamenting the unfairness of fate and the infinite despair of the future; and some people explore the deep pits created by the fragments, hoping to find some meteorites or meteorites in the pits and make huge profits.
Xiao Bai was particularly interested in photos posted by netizens about the environment around the area where the debris had struck her hometown. It was clear that within two weeks, trees and plants near the crater where the debris had fallen had grown more lush than those surrounding it. Some people also captured photos of small, crystal-like rocks found in the crater. Some experts speculate that these crystals were formed when silica melted and solidified in the intense heat of the asteroid's impact. Others suggest they may have been present in the asteroid itself.
Well, if there’s a chance, we can check to see if there’s any debris from the previous fall nearby and explore the deep pit.
As Xiao Bai thought about it, she clenched her fists and looked at her arms. In the past few days, she found that not only the animals at home, Lai Fu and the queen bee had changed, but even she herself had become much stronger. Before, if she stayed up late, she would feel tired the next day, but now, even if she stayed up late, she would still be energetic the next day. Moreover, she found that before the sun came out in the morning, she would feel particularly comfortable, and she especially wanted to be bathed in the first ray of sunlight, or purple air. This is why she used to get up early every day after returning home, instead of being able to get up until the sun was shining on her butt.
It seems that many changes have indeed taken place in this world that she is not aware of. Xiao Bai looked at the white ball running towards home excitedly in the distance. Alas, she didn't know whether this change was good or bad.
In the west of East City of Blue Star, the originally remote and barren plains suddenly rose from the ground within half a month. More than a dozen buildings over 20 meters high were erected. Countless machines waving giant mechanical arms were building houses. On the bumpy ground under construction, cars kept transporting various construction materials and large-scale research equipment. A three-meter-high wall was being built in the outermost circle, and more than half of the wall had been built. Many official guards of Blue Star patrolled back and forth in the outermost circle from time to time.
Blue Star officials are rapidly establishing a research base. Immediately after the asteroid fragments fell, Blue Star officials established a dedicated research team and dispatched researchers to collect the debris left behind, known as meteorites. They discovered that near the crater where the fragments fell, they could consistently find crystal-like materials. They collected meteorites from the crater, the charred soil surrounding it, any crystal-like materials they had found, and plants from the surrounding area for specialized research.
In addition, geological experts have also discovered that when the asteroid fell towards the blue planet, it caused changes in the gravity of the blue planet. Coupled with the strong impact of the asteroid fragments on the ground of the blue planet, the crust deep underground of the blue planet vibrated violently, causing earthquakes, mudslides, landslides, etc. in many places on the blue planet, and bottomless cracks appeared in many places.
"Report: The research lab has been completed, the research equipment has been installed, and all previously collected research samples and research data have been transferred to the new lab."
"Preliminary results from the controlled experiments have shown that plants near the asteroid's crater are growing more rapidly. It seems that some substance is promoting accelerated plant growth. We are currently testing whether the meteorite contains any unknown radioactive substances."
"The first group of researchers and military guards who went to collect meteorite material and came into contact with meteorites showed noticeable improvements in their physical fitness. Their strength and speed were significantly improved... beyond the capabilities of the average human."
········
The researchers kept reporting on their work to the middle-aged man sitting behind the desk. The middle-aged man looked at the document "Research on the Impact of Asteroid Eye Fragments on the Physical Fitness of Humans on Blue Planet" and said to the researchers who came to report:
"Gather volunteers as soon as possible and conduct a controlled experiment."
After the researchers left, the middle-aged man sighed and said earnestly to the adjutant standing beside him, "Bigger waves are coming!"
