For humans, there are not many ways to avoid disasters.
In ancient times, human technology was underdeveloped. At that time, most humans had no resistance to natural disasters. Disasters such as floods and earthquakes could easily destroy human homes.
A large number of people will die because of the disaster, even the surviving humans can only rebuild their homes with difficulty, and more will be displaced.
Therefore, in ancient times, there were often refugees, people who had to migrate to other places because they lost their homes due to famine or other disasters.
Even in modern times, human technology has been advancing with each passing day, but it is still quite difficult to fight against natural disasters.
Ordinary small-scale natural disasters, humans can still rely on solid buildings and modern technology to provide support to resist, at least not to destroy their homes, and it is relatively easy to rebuild.
However, in the face of major natural disasters that can change terrain and divert mountains and rivers, humans are still unable to resist, or they can only save their lives in the face of disasters.
Regarding regional disasters, most human beings still carry the past. Fortunately, modern society is relatively advanced in science and technology. It is not too difficult to rebuild homes and resettle refugees after the disaster.
It's just that a global disaster like this meteorite impact is not easy to fight against, and it is not easy to carry out post-disaster reconstruction if you want to get rid of the impact of the disaster.
Under such disasters, the entire human civilization has no very good ways to resist.
Originally, Chen Xin thought that the cold winter brought about by meteorite impacts was the biggest challenge humanity had to face, but now the impact of the successive eruptions of three super volcanoes made Chen Xin realize that meteorite impact and long night cold winter are just the beginning. .
To survive this terrible disaster and continue human civilization, the challenges that mankind has to face are beyond imagination.
Relying on the construction of underground shelters to fight against disasters like this can indeed be able to survive for a while, and it is also the limit that human civilization can achieve under current technological conditions.

If you want more and better ways to fight against disasters, they can only exist in science fiction works.
And what Chen Xin wants is the methods that can resist natural disasters in these science fiction works to inspire him.
Speaking of resisting natural disasters, the game "Tomorrow's Ark" is undoubtedly the most inspiring game.
In the Ark world, mankind invented mobile cities in order to avoid natural disasters. This modular city can be divided and combined into units at will, and move by itself at the same time, so that the entire city has the ability to move and can avoid natural disasters. It is very capable. The existence of reference value.
But if you want to really build a mobile city, that is simply a fantasy.
Not to mention that Chen Xin is now in the southern part of Yan Country, where there is a network of hills and rivers, and there is no condition for mobile cities. Even in the northern or plain areas where mobile cities are allowed to ride, the existing technology of mankind can’t make it. A vehicle that can carry an entire city.
And even if Chen Xin uses the system upgrade method to really build a mobile city and provide related technologies for mankind, the resources needed to build a city that can move freely will be too much.
More importantly, Blue Star is not Tyra, there are not so many natural disasters to avoid, and the city itself does not need to migrate frequently.
So for Chen Xin, the mobile city is just a good reference. He will make it when there is a real need. But before that, the mobile city is far from the real protagonist of "Tomorrow's Ark" from Rhode Island and has practical value. And attractive.
Rhode Island is a huge land cruiser, about the size of an aircraft carrier, but it can travel on land, somewhat similar to a small mobile city, but only the size and scale of a small town.
In fact, for an aircraft carrier built with modern technology, apart from not being able to travel on land like Rhode Island, in fact, it is not inferior to Rhode Island in every other respect.
And in terms of the size of an aircraft carrier, its interior is indeed equivalent to a small city.
At least if an aircraft carrier is measured by the current shelter, its interior can indeed carry the population of the next medium-sized shelter.
It is not a simple matter to just move the aircraft carrier that is sailing on the sea to land, or it is a problem that can be solved by the current technology of mankind.
All aspects of the problems involved, even before the disaster, the entire Blue Star may only have the strength of Suvia and the Federation in the Cold War era, and Yan State, which has risen after the 21st century, to study and solve.
Moreover, it is possible for these three countries to devote their efforts to investment.
It is a super project no less than manned space project, UU reading www. uukanshu.com can only be realized by truly great countries.
After the disaster, although the current Yan Nation still retains sufficient strength, the investment in building such a behemoth traveling on land is really too great.
Chen Xin can only use it as a backup plan now, and he can start research, but he can't say that he will definitely be able to make this thing.
Although he only needs to continuously invest in survival point upgrades, he can upgrade a land cruiser like Rhode Island.
"Land cruisers are still not easy to use in the Southwest!" It's just that although Rhode Island's manufacturing is included in the plan list, in Chen Xin's view, a behemoth like Rhode Island wants to open. Into the southwest region, it still seems a little impractical.
Is there something more practical? Chen Xin continued to search while recording the information on Rhode Island.
At this moment he suddenly remembered something.
In a novel he has read in the past, there are also descriptions of disasters. One of the stories is that the protagonist travels to the world of the movie "2012". In that world, there is no ark built by governments, but a self-built one. A private ark that can avoid disasters.
The method used by the protagonist is based on airship technology to create an airbag ark that can float in the sky, leading a group of people to escape the devastating flood in "2012".
Maybe this is a good idea? If it can fly, the mountainous terrain of the southwest will not be restricted.
In this way, even if a large-scale geological disaster occurs in the southwest region, which causes traffic interruption, it is impossible to enter the disaster area by land, and the plane cannot land. There are still ways to enter the disaster area and transfer the victims out.
