The rise of nanometers

Time flies, like the water of the river.

May 15th.

Four months have passed since the Yellowstone volcano incident, and the geological movements around the Yellowstone volcano have gradually calmed down.

Of course, due to the sinking of a large number of fractured rock layers and the continuous large and small geology, the geology within a radius of 500 to 800 kilometers around the Yellowstone volcano has become unstable.

According to a research report from the Institute of Geology, it is estimated that the Yellowstone volcanic area will enter a relatively active geological period lasting about 100 to 300 years.

During this period, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and rock formation fractures are all things that may happen at any time.

In order to ensure safety, the expeditionary force and the North American Temporary Civilian Management Center established an oval-shaped isolation zone centered on the Yellowstone Volcano, making this area a strictly prohibited area for human activities.

at the same time.

In May, the climate around the world also experienced huge changes.

The first is North America. Due to the large-scale release of magma before the Yellowstone volcano, the temperature near the central Great Plains of North America was abnormal. The highest temperature reached about 33 to 38 degrees Celsius in May.

Spring has just arrived in Xizhou, and the ice and snow in Lucia have not completely melted yet.

Large-scale droughts and floods occurred in the low latitudes of Central and South America, while the middle and high latitudes entered a freezing winter.

Similarly, the southern part of Heizhou has entered a state of heavy snowfall, while the tropical rain forests, plateau areas, and prairie areas in central Heizhou have seen floods and droughts taking turns, raging in this wild land.

As for various parts of North Africa and West Asia, the southward shift of the zero-degree isotherm has not brought any benefits to these areas. There are either extreme droughts, sudden heavy rains and hail, or sandstorms filled with wind and sand.

In various parts of the world, even in federally controlled areas, blizzards, droughts, and floods are still unavoidable.

It's just that the federal government's efforts to prevent and control natural disasters are not comparable to those of other forces. It has reached the point of using manpower to resist nature.

Despite numerous natural disasters, the internal material supply and social order are still in a highly stable state.

Time will smooth everything out.

Frequent natural disasters around the world have also become a hot topic on the Internet.

However, on May 15, two other big topics quickly replaced natural disasters and became the top two global Internet topics.

These two new topics are "The possibility of a human grand alliance?" and "The Chinese Federation's controllable nuclear fusion technology.".

The reason why these two big topics arise.

The main reason is that the major forces in the world have undergone huge changes. The previous pattern of one superpower and multiple powers has now become only one superpower.

The Federation officially annexed Noah's America. Although North America suffered heavy population losses, more than 82.53 million people died directly in this Yellowstone volcanic incident, and only 480 million people are left.

South America lost 52.36 million people and currently has 350 million people.

However, most of America's resources, talents, and a large number of industries that Noah would leave behind were taken over by the Federation.

At the same time, Lucia could not withstand the increasingly terrifying natural disasters and chose to propose a merger plan to the Federation, but the two parties had not yet reached an agreement.

In the situation of one super and three powers, as Noah will be annexed, Lucia also intends to defect to the Federation, leaving only the Western Continent Alliance.

But everyone with a discerning eye knows that the Western Continent Alliance is absolutely unstoppable. Facing a federation with power spread across seven continents and four oceans, it is difficult for the Western Continent Alliance to fight against.

However, the Federation has not mentioned the matter of the Grand Alliance. It has been digesting America recently, and even Lucia's merger negotiations have shown a lack of interest.

After all, if you control the entire Blue Star at once, you will face too many problems. The Federation will not take the initiative to propose this matter because doing so means that the Federation will be passive.

A crippled Noah Society would give the federation some indigestion, let alone other regions eating it together.

Even though the Yellowstone volcanic incident caused a sudden loss of 300-400 million people in the world, the remaining population was still very large.

There are so many people who have to eat and drink, have medical education, arrange work, stabilize society, etc. It makes my scalp numb just thinking about it.

America is semi-crippled, coupled with Noah's cooperation, the strict management of the three million expeditionary force, and the continuous material support from the mainland, otherwise it will be a mess.

Obviously, it is inappropriate to propose a major alliance plan at this time.

At least for some areas and populations, the federation does not want it, because the value of these areas is not great, and the value may even be dozens of times negative.

Especially some people don’t even have the value of transformation.

Swallowing the information in a hurry may create fatal risks for the federation. For future considerations, these areas must be handled with caution.

Therefore, although the topic of the Human Grand Alliance has become noisy on the global Internet, the Federation's attitude is very silent and does not show too much enthusiasm.

On the Internet at this time, there are many people who support and oppose it. Everyone expresses their opinions and debates endlessly.

Inside a cowboy bar in Bismarck.

Marshall was wiping his wine glass, while Harm and a few old acquaintances were sitting at the bar, drinking and generally chatting.

"Ham, congratulations on finding your new job." Another drinker said with some envy. He used to be the owner of a farm, but of course he is no longer the owner.

Marshall poured the farmer a glass of whiskey: "Look out, at least you don't have to worry about going bankrupt."

"Hahaha..." Others laughed.

It is indeed difficult for farmers, especially in the past few years, ABCD has been defeated by the Food Alliance, let alone small farmers.

Before the catastrophe, the farmer owed the bank a total of 37 million yuan. Now that the rice-dollar system has been directly swept into the garbage heap, this money no longer needs to be repaid.

Of course, his farm could no longer operate. Several hundred acres of cornfield could still be reclaimed, but two chicken farms and one cattle farm were completely wiped out.

The farmer shrugged and said with a smile: "You are still different. Do you want to go back?"

"..." Ham was silent for a while, but still shook his head: "The country on the top of the mountain, let it follow the volcanic ash of the Yellowstone volcano and become history together!"

"Yes! Humanity is finally moving towards unification." Another drinker sighed.

Boss Marshall was noncommittal: "Really? I'm afraid not necessarily! The Federation has not expressed its position yet, and judging from the establishment of temporary citizens, the Federation does not accept everyone."

Ham also nodded to this: "Indeed, the gap between various races is too big, and forced integration will only make it worse."

"Cheers! I'm going to the Great Lakes tomorrow." The farmer changed the topic.

Marshall took a sip of lemonade: "Why are you going to the Great Lakes? Are you going to do your old job again?"

"That's not true. Because of the federal recruitment, people who are familiar with agricultural machinery are needed to participate in the construction of the new Great Lakes agricultural area." The farmer explained.

Hamm did know some inside information: "It is estimated that they are planning to build agricultural factories in the Great Lakes region to make up for the agricultural losses in the Americas."

"The Federation is indeed powerful and can actually maintain food supply for three billion people." The farmer said with admiration.

As the night progresses, the temperature difference between day and night in North America increases due to the large-scale loss of surface vegetation.

The farmer, Ham and others who left the bar drunkenly walked on the quiet and dim streets, but they were not as cautious as before, and even felt a sense of peace of mind.
