“Your voice is also very good.” An Zhe thought this person wanted to speak so he said, “I want to hear it.”

“Stop.” Boss Shaw called out. “You are guilty of sedition and don’t even think about inciting this child.”

“You are just listening and don’t have to be afraid of getting caught.” Poet laughed. “After all, you have already been caught.”

His words were very reasonable.

“It took me a long time to sort things out. After being locked up here, I’ve had very few opportunities to talk about it. However, you should generally know these things.”

“I don’t know,” An Zhe answered.

“Oh?” Poet wondered. “Then I’ll be a bit more careful.”

“I’m thinking about where to start…” His rate of speaking slowed down. “I will start from the Desert Age.”

“Before the Desert Age, it was a ‘big prosperous period’ on Earth. There was a total of seven billion people on Earth and in the plains area, you could meet a village or city after driving for an hour. The cities were full of people while the outskirts of the city contained farmland, livestock farms and factories. They provided countless materials for the cities. There were wars at that time but they were all wars between countries. Animals and plants weren’t a match for human weapons.

At this point, he paused like he was sorting out his thoughts. After a while, he continued, “That was 2020. It was more than 100 years ago.”

“I was once a mercenary and I went to the ruins of a research institute in a capital city. There, I dug up a piece of data, a geomagnetic study that began in 2020.”

No one spoke and he kept talking. “From that year on, they detected the rapid decline of the Earth’s magnetic field. Do you know the magnetic field?”

Jin Sen opened his mouth. “Don’t ask me Brother. I have no culture.”

Boss Shaw didn’t speak.

“The base doesn’t teach these things.” Poet continued. “In short, the geomagnetic field disappeared.”

“Then what exactly is the geomagnetic field?” Jin Sen wondered honestly.

“The earth is a huge magnet and the South Pole and North Pole are its positive and negative poles. The geomagnetic field is everything.” Poet said. “After the disappearance of geomagnetism, compasses failed, there was a global biosphere disorder and all human industry shut down, unable to generate electricity. These were the lightest consequences of the geomagnetic field disappearing.”
