Volume 5: Eternity Introduction: Who is calling the fleet?
Observer No. 2 discovered the anomaly long time ago.
Although the symmetric collection method itself is a very commonly used research method, there are still many things to pay attention to when it is actually operated, because the consequences caused by information leakage are likely to become a huge disaster.
This kind of disaster has occurred countless times in the history of metal civilization, but most of them were eventually resolved successfully.
By completely erasing the dissipated civilization.
This kind of treatment is usually carried out without anyone noticing. In most cases, the wiped-out civilization has no idea that its end is approaching and it suddenly disappears.
However, this time the carbon-based civilization cannot be eliminated in such a convenient way, because it has aroused the interest of the General Administration, and the observers themselves no longer have the authority to deal with it directly, and all actions must be under command.
All previous communications were conducted indirectly by Observer No. 1, and Observer No. 2 did not actually intervene. He was not really concerned about what was happening on Earth. After all, the Mars spacecraft was his main subject.
Although the spaceship has self-destructed and turned into powder, a large amount of information can still be collected by going back in time. If all the information about the spaceship can be deciphered, it will be an extremely important archaeological achievement.
But even so, he couldn't help but notice the unusual geological activities on Earth.
It seems that volcanoes around the world are stirring, just as they did before several mass extinction events in prehistoric times.
He had a premonition that something completely unexpected would happen on Earth, and that not only human civilization but the entire solar system would be affected, and Mars, which he was studying, might also be affected in this event.
Thinking of this, he decisively contacted the nearest disposal department.
"(white noise)..."
"(white noise)..."
"(white noise)..."
"(Pink noise)..."
"Who called the fleet?"
Number Two reported his name and serial number and applied for support from the General Administration in the most efficient way.
He now has a lot of knowledge about the history of the Earth , and the abnormal activity of this volcano made him unconsciously think of the two large-scale volcanic activities at the end of the Guadeloupe System.
Emeishan Traps and Siberian Traps Event.
During the last period of the Permian period, two large-scale volcanic eruptions occurred: the Emeishan Traps and the Siberian Traps.
These two events may have produced large amounts of dust and acidic particles, blocking the sunlight reaching the surface, hindering photosynthesis of organisms in the terrestrial and marine photic zones, and causing the collapse of the food chain.
The acidic particles in the atmosphere eventually form acid rain and fall to the surface, causing damage to terrestrial plants, mollusks that can make calcium carbonate shells, and plankton.
Volcanic eruptions also release large amounts of carbon dioxide, creating an unprecedented greenhouse effect. The amount of carbon emitted by humans is insignificant compared to that.
These two volcanic eruptions were the direct cause of the Permian-Triassic mass extinction event, in which 95% of all life disappeared, and the Earth completely became a dead planet until reptiles gradually gained a dominant ecological niche.
However, observer No. 2 discovered that the cause of the volcanic eruption was not the geological activity of the earth itself, but was most likely "human" operation.
If this is true, it means that the scale of this volcanic eruption will far exceed all previous volcanic activities, and it is very likely to cause the extinction of 100% of carbon-based life.
Observer No. 1 most likely discovered this as well , so he set off for Earth early.
Humanity has missed two opportunities to save itself.
