"If this thing exists, what would it eat in the nutrient-poor seabed? Even if the entire seabed was emptied, it would not be enough for a Godzilla to feed."
Lu Guangyuan has been thinking.
He thought of the revival of paleontology that Xu Qiu had mentioned before.
In the deep sea, there is something called sea snow.
This is the flocculent organic matter produced by the upper layer of microorganisms decomposing the remains and feces of other organisms. It is very nutritious and is also one of the unique energy sources of deep-sea organisms.
However, the sea snow will continue to settle down and be gradually consumed by the creatures of each layer.
But despite this, less than one percent of the sea snow can be used by organisms, and more than 90.00% of the sea snow eventually falls on the seabed, forming a more than 1000-meter-thick organic sediment layer.
Over time,
This thick layer of organic deposits decays and produces massive amounts of the greenhouse gas, methane...
This kind of thing has a greenhouse effect that is 72 times that of carbon dioxide!
Also, most of the methane occurs on the ocean floor and in permafrost.
Combustible ice is actually methane that exists as a hydrate under low temperature and high pressure conditions.
He felt his scalp tingle a little, and said: "Director Xu, will there be an ice layer on the seabed for tens of millions of years? After methane, organic deposits, changes in the movement of the seabed crust, and the eruption of submarine volcanoes, the ice layer will be formed. melt.
"And those ancient creatures that were frozen in the iceberg, resurrected?"
Even the extinguishment of the sun has come,
The resurrection of creatures in prehistoric ice is not so implausible.
Xu Qiu frowned, shook his head, and said: "The possibility is very small. After being frozen for so long, the giant monster's muscles have shrunk long ago, and it is also severely malnourished. If it really comes out of the ice, it will starve to death soon. "It's impossible for mammals, their lungs make it impossible to go so deep.
"In terms of fish, among the top predators in the deep sea, the cod family is the limit of size, but this thing is not big, except for a few large individuals that can be eaten, most of them are used as miscellaneous fish after being caught and fed farmed fish."
Li Bingqing seemed to be a little puzzled, and said: "Director Xu, you have been using common sense to speculate... But, from the perspective of common sense, there is no way on the blue star that can bite the body of the blue whale." Half the creature!
"If it conforms to common sense, then it won't be called a giant monster of the deep sea!"
Lu Guangyuan was also somewhat convinced by Li Bingqing's words.
Judging from the photos Lu Guangyuan saw,
Half of the blue whale's body was bitten off with one bite.
This means that the creature not only has a huge size, but also has extremely sharp teeth, and also has a terrifying bite force.
don't say anything else,
Let it come to land and crush a defensive tank, no problem.
Lu Guangyuan showed a thoughtful expression, looked at Xu Qiu, and said, "Director Xu, the recovery of ancient creatures is not something that can be explained by common sense...
"For example, when Einstein's theory of relativity was first proposed, it was also regarded as a fallacy. Is it true that there is no possibility of giant creatures under the deep sea?"
Xu Qiu shook his head.
He understood very well what Li Bingqing and Lu Guangyuan were thinking at the moment.
In fact, they hoped to get an affirmative answer from Xu Qiu.
For, as long as giant creatures exist,
Well, half of the blue whale was bitten off, at least not so scary.
As long as it is a creature with flesh and blood, can it still block the hot weapons of human beings?
Xu Qiu let out a long breath and said, "All theories must be based on common sense and cannot violate objective truth.
"Although the theory of relativity seemed incomprehensible at the time, it was logical and did not violate objective truth.
"However, the existence of deep-sea giant organisms violates the basic laws of biology and energy transfer.
"If there are giant creatures in the deep sea, then the perpetual motion machine may also be realized."
Xu Qiu shook his head helplessly.
It is impossible to manufacture a perpetual motion machine, which violates the law of conservation of energy and the first law of thermodynamics.
Xu Qiu then added: "If the deep-sea giants really exist, then the biology that humans have accumulated and perfected for hundreds or thousands of years will be completely denied and collapsed in an instant.
"Also, have you ever thought about a question?"
Lu Guangyuan and Li Bingqing pricked up their ears and asked in unison: "What's the problem?"
Xu Qiu laughed, and said: "You said if it really existed, what would it be good for if it grew so big?"
He stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the bustling streets in the distance, and said: "Some things don't have to be explored or witnessed by yourself, as is the case with creatures.
"The birth and existence of any creature is traceable, and there will be no useless things growing on the creature, so we can infer the possibility of the existence of the deep-sea monster based on the living environment.
"Just imagine, in the deep sea, if a creature wants to live well, what it needs to do is not to grow bigger, but to shrink its size as much as possible and reduce energy consumption, otherwise, even the most basic energy source will not be guaranteed!
"If there is a giant monster in the deep sea, what is the meaning of the existence of this kind of creature?
"To eat the 'sea snow' that can be seen with the naked eye? To eat fecal residues decomposed by organic matter? There is not even a single nutritious shrimp under the deep sea, it is all other microorganisms and small deep-sea animals that cannot eat enough.
"It grows so big, is it just to recover from the Little Ice Age, and then rise to the surface of the sea to scare humans?" Li Bingqing and Lu Guangyuan's expressions were very bad.
If there are no giants of the deep sea, then...
Where did the blue whale disappear after being bitten off half of its body?
"By Xiongguo, it shouldn't be self-directed and acted. Of course, I dare not rule out this possibility, but the gnawing marks in the photo don't seem to be man-made... Several times appeared in Lu Guangyuan's mind. speculation, but ultimately denied it.
Xu Qiu sat back on the chair, took a sip of tea, and said, "Next, strengthen maritime patrols and seabed exploration to see if we can find anything." Actually, that's all they can do.
If the giants of the deep sea really exist,
Human beings have explored the deep sea for decades, but no trace of it has been found.
It is foreseeable that this kind of creature may have its own unique way of lurking.
Then, if it doesn't show up on its own initiative, human beings can't detect it.
"Could it be related to the Little Ice Age?"
Xu Qiu felt that this was a reasonable reason.
The Little Ice Age brought global terror down.
The seafloor, and probably not immune to it, will change dramatically.
In order to survive, the giant creatures in the deep sea began to wake up, in order to survive?
This thing, I can't think about it, Xu Qiu himself has a little reason to believe in the existence of giants in the deep sea.
"Guangyuan, go follow the arrangement I said, find out the management personnel of Xushen faction as soon as possible, and pay attention to the Xiongguo blue whale incident." Lu Guangyuan didn't ask any more questions, suppressing his doubts and fears about the blue whale's time in his heart, Respond to leave.
"By the way, Guangyuan."
Xu Qiu called Lu Guangyuan to stop.
"After leaving this door, the words 'Blue Star Ring' should not appear again."
"Obey, Chief Xu!"
As the wooden door closed, Xu Qiu also relaxed, leaning on the chair, closing his eyes and resting his mind.
The ring of the blue star is of great importance.
It cannot be made public until specific feasible drawings are given.
"Bing Qing."
Xu Qiu shouted.
A soft voice sounded, Li Bingqing took a step forward thoughtfully, and replied softly: "Director Xu, Bingqing is here."
"The blue whale incident in Xiongguo, let Longguo's biological research department look into it. By the way, give me a reasonable explanation." Xu Qiu doesn't know much about biology.
It still needs to be handed over to the group of old experts who specialize in biological research.
Perhaps, there can give a reasonable answer?
Of course, Xu Qiu didn't have too high expectations.
After Xiong Guo discovered the half-bitten body of the blue whale, he immediately blocked the news from the whole world.
This level of emphasis alone is enough to explain the problem.
Of course, Li Bingqing was also aware of the unusual significance of this matter, said "yes" and took the order to leave.
Although Li Bingqing is a personal bodyguard,
However, Xu Qiu had already ordered her to leave.
She is a smart person and knows that Xu Qiu needs a space to be alone.
Therefore, without asking too much, after closing the wooden door, he immediately asked the surroundings to strengthen the guards.
With the security level of the crisis bureau building,
Blowing up the White House in Berry Country is easier than blowing up the Crisis Bureau building.
Only then did Li Bingqing leave with peace of mind, and rushed to the Longguo Biological Research Department to complete the tasks assigned by Xu Qiu.
Two hours later.Dragon Kingdom, the waters of the Yellow Sea.
The maritime patrol ship Haixun 01 is performing daily patrol tasks.
This ship is the largest, most advanced, and comprehensively capable official ship and large-scale cruise rescue ship in Longguo so far.
After serving, Haixun 01 is mainly used for maritime patrol and supervision in the waters under its jurisdiction.
However, the crew of Haixun only have the power of supervision, not the power of police. Only after the anti-smuggling and the sea police join in, they can enforce the law.
At this time, it is time to rest after lunch.
In addition to the necessary positions, there are still people, and the rest of the seafarers are resting on the deck, enjoying the rare leisure of the day.
"Yo Yao, I caught a crab!"
"Old Liu, hurry up, the crab I caught half an hour ago should still be alive, catch it and race the horses, and see whose crab is faster!"
Hearing this, the crew cheered and gathered around to observe the vitality of the two crabs and bet on each other.
"I think Pharaoh's crabs are fast!"
