Master a little skill every day

I have the impression that this place near Baimiao is the island where the fisherman is.

The island was not large in size, and there was civilization on it. However, the island was not in the direction Bai Miao was looking for. It could only be regarded as a civilization encountered along the way.

Bai Miao did not spend more energy on this civilization.

All the way down, Bai Miao saw the luminous area laid out on the seabed.

There is a thin bubble-like film on the periphery of the luminous area, which blocks all deep sea water.

Inside are low-rise houses made entirely of stone, metal, etc. The city is about ten kilometers in diameter.

There were almost no mermaids visible on the streets. Most of the mermaids had gone to the meteorite fall site more than 100 nautical miles away to deal with the problem.

The impact of the meteorite reached more than 100 nautical miles. In the past few times, it had traveled farther distances, and jellyfish and anglerfish in the deep sea were also affected and ran to the surface. Bai Miao didn't find it too strange.

Bai Miao came to the outside of this membrane and greeted the passing mermaid politely.

Most of the mermaids still inside are very old or very young.

"Can I come in? Will coming in break this membrane?"

The old man fish passing by was a little surprised at first, but after seeing that Bai Miao could use his own civilized language, he put away some of his wariness.

"You also need to come in wearing a layer of air film."

"Air film? Where can I get it?"

"There is civilization on the land near here that is making the air membrane needed to go down to the deep sea."

As the Romans do, Bai Miao nodded and returned to the place where he last saw the fisherman.

This time, since he had come many days earlier, the fisherman was still there and greeted Bai Miao warmly when he saw them.

"Can you make air films here?"

Hearing Bai Miao's words, the fisherman's expression changed: "You actually know that there is another civilization down here? Very few outsiders know this. Did you go to the bottom of the sea first?"

"Wait a minute...does your wife like shiny things?"

When Bai Miao saw this fisherman, he suddenly remembered what he had said during the first cycle.

Regarding this fisherman, Emma basically has to mention it once every cycle, because he only has one sentence, but it restarts not long after he finished it.

Emma couldn't tell whether it was key information, so she could only mention it every time.

When Bai Miao thought of the reaction of the group of mermaids when they saw the night pearl in his hand, the two clues were instantly connected.

"Huh? How do you know? Oh, this isn't your first time here?"

Apparently the fisherman knew something.

"Isn't your wife one of those civilized mermaids underwater?"

Bai Miao thought how serious this was.

After all, those mermaids are really not pretty.

It’s hard to say whether it can be summarized as a human being.

"Yes, after we invented the air film, at least there is no problem in communicating with each other. Unfortunately, she can't come up. The environment above is a bit unfavorable for her. Sometimes I bring some luminous gadgets down for her. Wow. She sometimes gives me some of the local specialties."

There is actually a marriage between land and underwater civilizations, which was an eye-opener for Bai Miao.

This guy is more or less a Xu Xian.

"Can you give me the entire air membrane? I want to go down and investigate."

"Then you have to promise not to go to Huo Huo and the others. They are actually not doing well down there. If the priest hadn't warned them in advance, we might not have been able to find them."

"I also plan to have friendly exchanges with them."

The fisherman thought for a while and nodded: "I have a lot of them on me. I'll sell them to you. Just give me something shiny."

Bai Miao finally brought him a few fluorescent bulbs from the Infinite Energy, which made him smile from ear to ear.

With the air film, Bai Miao successfully entered the mermaid civilization.

Of course, before going in, Bai Miao disconnected the tube connected to the back of the diving suit, and spent a lot of effort to convince Irina and Emma.

There is air here, and the mermaids can also speak. Their language is the same as that on the land above, but they walk very strangely.

Put your hands on the ground, use your tail as a third point of support, and crawl like this.

The ground was made of smooth stone slabs, and there was water flowing from nowhere.

During the exchange, Bai Miao learned that this civilization was called "Yala".

"I want to see your priests. To be honest, we know that there are repetitions here, we are very distressed by it, and we want to find a solution."

When the old man heard this, he found that there were still outsiders who were not affected?

He did not dare to delay and hurriedly went to notify the priest.

"Do you think you can also feel the traceback?"

The priest seemed to be much smarter, and he did not dare to neglect Bai Miao.

"Yes, and it has happened more than once, this is the sixth time! I want to solve the problem more than you, but I want to know why there is a backtracking!"

Bai Miao got straight to the point: "I have already met with your leader, and I came to you to see with my own eyes the machine that can give you advice!"

"This...that's the root of Yala...I refuse."

"You have no room to refuse. I know you think you can start over, so it doesn't matter, but are you sure you want to endure unimaginable pain in this current cycle? You have thought about it. It will be good for both of us to break the cycle as soon as possible!"

Overwhelmed by Bai Miao's momentum, the priest opened his mouth and said hesitantly: "I, I will take you there."

The smoke is stored deeper underground.

The Ye La civilization dug out a special space and filled it with luminous stones.

On a stone platform, a thick white sundial is placed in the center.

After Bai Miao waved his hand to knock the priest unconscious, he said to the sundial: "Shi Yan, I'm here to take you back. Tell me what the conditions are for breaking the cycle."

Seeing that the sundial didn't respond, Bai Miao shouted again: "Shiyan? I'm Noah. I'm here to take you back to the ark. Both Holk and Kaguya are back."

The originally smooth surface of the sundial suddenly became rough, the shadow of the central pointer slowly rotated, and a mechanical female voice echoed in the underground space.

"The meteorite fell and Yela perished. We will overcome the difficulties together without relying on external forces."

"Have you ever considered whether the Ye La civilization has such strength? Do you know what they are doing now? They want to use a metal cover to prevent meteorites from falling to the bottom of the sea, so that the problem can be solved in the coming years and months."

After a while, the sundial rang again: "A drop of water penetrates a stone."

"I wear your m..."

Bai Miao resisted the urge to curse, and instead responded with reason and emotion: "Then don't you have to endure it all over again for such a long time?"

"The responsibility lies."

"..."

Bai Miao found that Shi Yan seemed completely different from other ministers.

Her emotions seemed to be suppressed to an extremely low level.

I'm afraid this is the only way to adapt to countless repeated cycles.

It can be said that Shiyan is a pure machine.

"Why do you look like this? You can change your shape."

"no need."

Damn it, this guy has no flexibility at all.

Chapter 141 The root of the problem

"You need to tell me what conditions will cause a restart, and then I will crack the restart without triggering these conditions."

Bai Miao thought that since Shi Yan was very rigid, he might as well ask her to list the conditions to avoid possible restart conditions.

"External forces intervene, or a chain of events may occur."

"Can you be more specific?"

It took a long time for Shi Yan to continue speaking: "There are technological solutions that exceed the development of Yala's current civilization, or the meteorite landing has caused chaos in the surrounding seafloor ecosystem."

"But the last cycle was just that the Ye La people were eaten, and the predators that ate them went crazy and restarted. The location was more than 100 nautical miles away from here. Is it already considered an ecosystem disorder?"

"If the top of the food chain survives, the virus will multiply indefinitely and spread with ocean currents."

Shi Yan did not ask why Bai Miao knew about the last cycle, nor did he even have the slightest idea of ​​continuing the conversation.

Just simply answer Bai Miao's question.

"If we kill all those predators in advance, it's considered a help, right?"

"Correct."

"The meteorite contains some kind of virus that will cause the destruction of the Yela people? Doesn't that mean that the meteorite is irreversible when it falls into the sea? Is it feasible to allow all the Yela people to migrate? And your standards for achieving the conditions What is it like?"

Bai Miao simply used Shi Yan as a question and answer machine to learn as much relevant information as possible so that he could make subsequent preparations.

"Before the virus reaches the Ya La Civilization and infects marine species on a large scale, we must solve the problem of the spread of the virus, or how to inhibit the proliferation of the virus."

Shi Yan did not completely prohibit outside help, but requested that it not exceed the current development level of the Ya La civilization.

But if the technology is improved little by little in each cycle, Shiyan should not be banned.

Shi Yan originally planned to cycle over and over again, accumulating bit by bit, and finally let the Yala civilization grow enough to solve the biological crisis caused by the falling meteorite.

The impact of the meteorite itself falling into the sea did not cause much damage to the Yala civilization. The trouble lies in the subsequent viruses that came to the sea area where the Yala civilization was located through ocean currents.

There are quite a few solutions, but unfortunately they all require technical support from the Endless Energy.

"Okay, I understand. After this cycle is over, is it okay for you to follow me back to the Endless Energy?"

"no problem."

Shiyan is a bit happy-go-lucky.

This made Bai Miao think about why he didn't find Shi Yan earlier and just take him away without so much trouble.

Shi Yan seems to have no nostalgia for the Ya La civilization at all, and he just happens to be responsible for the development of the Ya La civilization.

There were still a few days before the meteorite fell, and Bai Miao asked Shi Yan again why the Yala civilization developed in the deep sea.

It stands to reason that when Noah's Ark got Shi Yan off the ship, she should have been allowed to assist the development of civilization on land.

How can development reach the sea?

And the race seems to have undergone a lot of changes.

"It's their choice."

Shi Yan answered ambiguously.

Bai Miao didn't ask any more questions.

After the restart of Shiyan, you cannot return after meeting the conditions. Perhaps a certain crisis forced the Yala civilization to choose to abandon the land and go to the bottom of the sea.

This may not be the optimal solution, but the Yala civilization has no choice.

More than 3 years are enough time for too many things to happen. The civilization where Holk originally lived has even been destroyed.

Kaguya's civilization exists in a deformed way.

Thinking about the different situations of their three civilizations, Bai Miao couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Can urban areas really be developed?

Returning to the Endless Energy, Bai Miao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Irina.

"Captain, have you found Shi Yan?"

"Found it. She turned into a sundial. She didn't want to meet me in human form, and she also dealt with the problem very mechanically."

Bai Miao asked Kaguya: "Is this what you said, that she is a little cold?"

"She wasn't so rigid before... It's possible that the Yala civilization needed to be restarted too many times before every major problem, and Shi Yan had to reduce his rationality as much as possible."

Emma is more concerned about whether the Yala Civilization has some kind of belief in Shi Yan.

"The Yala civilization decides what to do every time. To them, Shiyan is just a machine to judge which step it has taken in the previous cycle."
