Chapter 307 The Culprit



Fang Qingdai sensed something was wrong as soon as she entered this area.

The magnetic field here fluctuates greatly, and the energy interference is very strong. The space walls have patterns similar to water ripples, which were caused by the impact.

It should be noted that after Fang Qingdai completely merged with the space, the space wall became so stable that even the energy detection devices of the Xuanwu base could not detect the slightest fluctuation or leakage.

However, the chaotic magnetic field here can still collide with the space wall.

Just to be on the safe side, Fang Qingdai walked very slowly, observing the surrounding situation along the way.

Fortunately, the space wall was very stable, and no matter how much water surged, no pollution or radiation was ever able to get in.

Having searched for the energy stone once, Fang Qingdai gained experience and quickly found the deep crater formed by the impact of a meteorite.

This pit is much larger than the one behind the Oasis base. Even in broad daylight, you can't see the bottom of the pit from above; it's pitch black, like it's imprisoning some kind of hellish creature.

Fang Qingdai, protected by her spatial dimension, was much bolder.

She slowly descended along the pit wall, and after going down about ten meters, the light had become very dim.

Without lighting, Fang Qingdai wouldn't be able to see the way down.

After thinking for a moment, Fang Qingdai found a pole, hung an emergency light on it, and leaned out from the space wall.

But in the mere second the portal opened, several chaotic bursts of energy crashed in!

The grass on that side of the spatial wall withered instantly!

Fortunately, Fang Qingdai reacted quickly and used her mental power to intercept those strands of energy, trapping them inside a barrier space.

Energy is not eternal. Once trapped in the barrier space, it will slowly dissipate because it will not receive nourishment from other energies.

But that's only a small amount of energy; if there were more, locking them up would cause trouble.

Although the space has a certain ability to purify, before those unclean energies are purified, countless flowers and plants will be polluted, so machines must be used for purification.

But what if we need to collect energy stones later, and the space walls need to be opened and closed frequently, causing too much unclean energy to rush in?

If Fang Qingdai hadn't collected it in time, I can't even imagine how much pollution this paradise would have suffered.

Fang Qingdai was somewhat worried, but she continued to descend by the dim light, intending to go down and see what was going on before figuring out a solution.

To her surprise, the further down she went, the calmer the restless magnetic field became.

Fang Qingdai was puzzled, so she risked exploring the pollution testing equipment and discovered that the pollution level in the lower part of the pit was only level three!

Although no measurements have been taken outside, areas designated as high-pollution zones cannot have pollution levels lower than level six!

What's going on right now?

Fang Qingdai dived down another ten meters or so, watching helplessly as the pollution level on the pollution testing instrument dropped again!

It's only at level two now, and with the physique of wastelanders, even a child could withstand it!

When she reached the bottom of the pit and looked at the pollution testing equipment, she was even more astonished to find that the pollution level had dropped to zero!

Even though various anti-pollution devices have been installed in major bases, there is still a pollution level of one!

Level 1 is already recognized by the wasteland dwellers as a good living environment, so how could they dare to expect it to be completely pollution-free?

But at the bottom of this extraterrestrial meteorite crater, which is extremely polluted on the outside, the pollution level is zero!

Fang Qingdai even thought there was a problem with the pollution testing equipment!

Fortunately, she had plenty of supplies in her space. She found another testing device and probed out, only to find that the pollution level was still zero!

Fang Qingdai thought for a moment and decided to put on protective clothing and go out to check the situation.

After she put on her protective suit, she carefully jumped out of the space. The moment her feet touched the ground, Fang Qingdai realized something was wrong!

She held the emergency light up to the ground and saw a sparse patch of withered, yellow grass!

Although these grasses are clearly suffering from insufficient sunlight and malnutrition, it cannot be denied that this is a meadow!

The Qinglong Base has spent a lot of manpower and resources to carefully cultivate the land, but it can only achieve small-scale greening. Yet, in this highly polluted sinkhole, a patch of greenery has grown so lushly.

Fang Qingdai was truly shocked. She immediately took out a high-powered emergency light from her space and turned it on. The white light poured out, illuminating the bottom of the pit so clearly that every detail was visible!

Fang Qingdai squinted at the light, and once her eyes adjusted, she saw that the bottom of the pit, which was about a hundred square meters in size, was covered with sparse, yellowish-green grass.

In some places, two malnourished little flowers, neither pink nor yellow, even sprouted!

With these plants here, there's no need to doubt the pollution testing equipment. If it weren't truly at level zero pollution, so much vegetation couldn't possibly grow here!

Fang Qingdai took off her protective suit and touched the flowers and plants with her fingers, feeling a surge of emotion.

When the whole world was in ruins, these flowers and plants stubbornly survived in this deserted corner.

Fang Qingdai checked them several times and was quite certain that they were all ordinary flowers and plants, without any signs of mutation, and as clean as the vegetation growing in the space!

What exactly is the reason for this?

What kind of energy could possibly contend with the wasteland?

Fang Qingdai thought of the so-called energy stone core and couldn't help but feel excited!

The energy of an energy stone is pure and clean. If its energy is powerful enough, it is plausible that it can purify pollution.

These meteorites have long been considered a major source of contaminated wasteland.

The arrival of the apocalypse is inextricably linked to these extraterrestrial meteorites.

But what was unexpected was that the energy contained within these meteorites, after growing to a certain extent, would purify the world once again.

This world is never over. If humanity doesn't fight amongst itself, if humanity survives well, with the passage of time and the influence of these energy stones, the world will surely one day return to its former glory!

pity……

The wasteland is now embroiled in fierce fighting, and the war will only exacerbate the pollution and reduce the human population.

If no one stops it, perhaps humanity will destroy itself before the day the energy stones purify the world.

Fang Qingdai thought about the reason for the apocalypse.

Aside from meteorites, the biggest factors were World War III, nuclear weapons contamination, and biological warfare contamination!

If it weren't for that war, these extraterrestrial meteorites wouldn't have brought about the apocalypse!

Even advanced technology can allow scientists to discover the secrets of energy stones sooner.

Therefore, the culprit is still humanity itself. It is humanity that missed the gift from outer space and destroyed its own home.

Fang Qingdai remained silent for a long time.

Now that everything has happened, all she can do is try her best to preserve these glimmers of hope and give the wasteland a chance to return to prosperity.

Thinking of this, Fang Qingdai looked at the grass beneath her feet: "Go into the space, it's more suitable for you to survive there. I promise you, when the wasteland sees the light again, I will definitely transplant you back to this land!"
