Chapter 58: Chapter 58 Great Transformation
The rhizome grows vertically downward and extends to the lava area of the mantle, from which more heat energy is obtained. This is the second step of the plan.
Originally, there was no need to have a first step, but at the beginning, the two sides were full of lava in the formation, and the rhizomes in most of the strata were burned, and the remaining parts were basically in the sea.
The downward-growing rhizome protrude quickly. After all, only ice hinders its progress. After the ice is added with a certain component of hydrochloric acid, the freezing point will decrease and the liquefaction phenomenon will occur. This is the same as sprinkling salt on the road after the road is frozen. In essence, the temperature has not changed. What changes is only the solidification temperature of the liquid. .
During the excavation, the rhizome can often bump into the organic debris left when it is in the process of the collision, as well as the microorganisms that do not die at ultra-low temperatures and enter self-dormant.
This is a surprise.
The recovery of organic debris can provide Huo Gu with more organic materials in the current scarce environment. Self-dormant microorganisms can be temporarily protected. After the temperature of the planet recovers, it will be scattered on the planet. After all, he promised to help take care of its creation.
"I haven't seen the bottom yet..."
After excavation for a long time, the rhizome has been growing downwards. Huo Gu looked back and estimated the distance and excavated a depth of nearly 4,000 meters from the ice.
Digging in the ice, in addition to the obstacles of the ice, Huo Gu also faces another difficulty, that is, low temperature.
The low temperature can no longer have any impact on the cells controlled by Huo Gu, but it will still affect the transportation of organic materials.
Fortunately, there is no solution. It is still the way to reduce the freezing point of hydrochloric acid. In the pipeline of transporting organic materials, a certain proportion of hydrochloric acid is added to ensure that the liquid inside will not freeze.
The only disadvantage is that hydrochloric acid reacts with the protein being transported in the pipeline and decomposes into more basic amino acids. When it reaches the end of the rhizome, it will be more troublesome to recombine it into protein.
Finally, at a distance of more than 8,000 meters from the surface of the ice, the rhizome encountered resistance, which was much stronger than ice. Huo Gu knew that it was the ground covered by thick ice.
It will be difficult to break through the ground, because the density of the pressure from the ice above is different from that of the Hades.
However, although the resistance increases, it is not impossible to continue to push forward, but the speed will decrease a lot compared with the previous one.
Time flies, and thanks to finally seeing the sun, Huo Gu finally has a fixed unit of time measurement.
At the end of the excavation of the local layer, when the rhizome broke into the top of the lava, the planet had rotated 25,462 times and experienced 25,462 day and night changes.
Huo Gu can't be accurate about the specific time, because the planet is different, and it is not sure whether the rotation period of the planet is 24 hours.
Take the ground as the starting point and go deep into the ground for about 523 kilometers.
"It's 490 kilometers deeper than the last time I touched the lava area, and the core temperature has dropped so much..."
"It seems that that guy is not much better in the last round of the deal."
Since it comes into contact with the heat source, Huogu will switch back to the original version of the rhizome with better heat resistance and stronger performance.
Relying on the original version of the rhizome, Huo Gu quickly opened a large net in the formation, collected the necessary materials, and re-extend the rhizome growing to the surface at the node of the net.
Back and forth, the rhizome that goes deep into the ground breaks through the surface. The first tip of the rhizome stops growing and swells to form a sphere. The outside of the sphere extends countless roots, decomposes and collects the hard ice covering the surface, and liquefies it is introduced into the underground cavity for storage.
The part of the earth's surface and the ice quickly cleared a hole. Without the constraints from the ice, the sphere that expanded and contracted like a heart quickly expanded its shape. In a short time,
It swells from a meter in diameter to ten meters, and the speed does not decrease until the sphere can no longer accommodate the creatures inside and bursts.It is the cone creature designed by Huo Gu in the last ocean of the ancient world.
This creature was originally designed to provide the expansion of the life field, as well as the processing and separation of matter, and storage. After this further optimization, Huo Gu named this biological unit 'Hive'.
It will be named because Hogu thought that its ability and function are very similar to that of the bee hive.
From the ground, through the power provided by the biological pump, the rhizome transports a large amount of calcium carbonate substances to the hive, which receives these substances and separates them to form carbon dioxide and calcium.
Previously, those liquefied water and monocalcium were in contact with monocalcium reacted to produce calcium hydroxide. During this chemical reaction, a large amount of heat was released and the liquid water was boiled and converted into steam.
As a result, a heat source with abundant heat is added to the surface covered with ice.
Those calcium hydroxide will be introduced into a new area after the reaction, where there are a large number of nerve protrusions. synapses connect those cold-resistant photo-sensitive cells above the ice. In the sunlight, cold-resistant photo-sensitive cells will produce large The amount of H+ ion mass is combined with calcium hydroxide to form calcium oxide and liquid water.
In this way, the thermal cycle is established.
With the first one, there will be a second one. The rhizome expands in all directions. Whenever the temperature drops below zero, the rhizome will establish a honeycomb stronghold in that place and carry out heat release work.
Because it relies on the light of the stars, the core temperature of the planet itself does not have to worry about being affected.
If someone can overlook the surface of the planet from outer space at this time, it can be seen that a black area appears on the white ice and soon expands to a larger area.
They are the hardy photo-sensitive cells that collect sunlight. Under the ice they cover, there is a running hot hive.
This kind of expansion is not aimless and reckless. Huo Gu still has a plan for the general expansion route.
The area covered by the honeycomb is mainly the equatorial, northern temperate and southern temperate zones, with an area of about 467 million square kilometers.
The reason why this plan is implemented is that Huogu wants to keep the glaciers at the north and south poles.
The existence of the north and south poles can form a thermal circulation of the atmosphere, which has the function of regulating the climate and even heat distribution to a certain extent. To put it bluntly, it is a giant mixer that disperses the heated air mass and makes the atmospheric activity of the whole planet more frequent.
At the same time, the atmospheric environment will also affect the ocean and make the waters of the marine environment more stable, so that the planet's environment can be close to the earth.
It is not that it is not the earth's environment, but Huo Gu's knowledge is limited. Among all the known planets, only the earth's ecological environment is the most gentle and comfortable.
