Chapter 995 - Impeachment Proposal
Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide, with a freezing point of minus 78.5 degrees Celsius and a boiling point of minus 57 degrees Celsius. Once it falls like snowflakes, the now exposed "Atlan" will face not only extreme low temperatures but also high concentrations of carbon dioxide.
The oxygen content in the atmosphere of this planet is inherently low. Not only humans need oxygen, but other animals and plants also need oxygen. The "Wall of Sighs" does not carry enough green plants. Even with the agricultural crops of "Atlan", it still relies on mechanical and chemical preparation of oxygen as an important supplement, and the supply and demand balance is barely maintained in the underground space of "Atlan".
However, the relative density of carbon dioxide (1.97g/L) is greater than that of nitrogen (1.26g/L) and oxygen (1.46g/L), which means that it will flow downwards like water. Humans based in "Atlanta" are now active beneath the city ground. The underground space can easily be filled with gaseous carbon dioxide vaporized from dry ice. Once a large amount of carbon dioxide invades the proportion of atmospheric composition, the consequences will be more than just making the situation worse, so there will only be one result.
During the dry ice blizzard, a large-scale oxygen-deficiency and suffocation disaster will be inevitable. All plants and animals will die, and no one will survive!!!
So when Huang Xiulun wanted to quit, Chen Fei was ready to part ways without hesitation, precisely because of this reason.
Rather than being suffocated to death by the pervasive carbon dioxide, it is better to die quickly now and avoid suffering.
When Huang Xiulun realized that Chen Fei was definitely not joking, he finally realized that this young man became the king of "Atlan" not just by relying on verbal threats, but because he really had enough strength to suppress all doubts and even opposition.
Damn bastard, how could he accumulate so many combat robots? Just based on the number, they can pile up and kill all the people in the "Wall of Sighs" operation team. Killing one thousand and losing three thousand of their own is still a profit.
The army's fighting style is completely different from that of a lone ranger. Once they lose their logistical support, their combat effectiveness will drop by more than half. More than 300,000 combat robots can wipe out the logistics of the "Wall of Sighs" on the spot. If they go crazy, they will not even let their own people go. Humanity will be powerless to fight back in the next round.
"One man is an army" is never a descriptive term when used to describe Chen Fei, because that is the reality. He relies on gold-based abilities and "space imprints" to replace the logistical supplies needed by this one-man army.
Compared with a fully-strength army, Chen Fei does not have any logistical weaknesses. He is not afraid of having his supply lines cut off, and others cannot cut off his logistical supplies. It would be better to kill Chen Fei directly.
Either he would die at the hands of Chen Fei or die from suffocation caused by the dry ice blizzard. Giving up would mean death, and there was no doubt about the result.
Either they manufacture 10,000 "sky curtain" light-transmitting sheets that meet the standards, and use them in conjunction with the completed "sky curtain" structure to completely enclose the basin where "Atlan" is located.
Death or survival, the human residents of "Atlan" can easily make a choice.
Under the close supervision of Huang Xiulun, everyone in the scientific research institute worked hard. If three shifts were not enough, they would work a fourth shift. Experiments continued even though people stopped working. The silicon carbide three-layer translucent sheet project was finally completed as scheduled on the industrial production line for mass production. The assembly line was running at full capacity, and translucent sheets that met the requirements were batched off the production line with qualified quality.
The R&D team took a shortcut by overlapping three layers of thin sheets and infusing them with nearly transparent silica aerogel, thus skipping the vacuuming process. This not only ensures light transmittance and production efficiency, but also has excellent thermal insulation properties that can keep out the upcoming extreme cold.
There has also been a major breakthrough in the secret mission being carried out in the "isolated" area of the "Atlan" central building.

After confirming the delivery of 10,000 three-layer translucent films, the exhausted Huang Xiulun felt dizzy and almost collapsed to the ground. However, he did not even have time to take a breath. He had to pull himself together and go to the City Management Committee to participate in the discussion of city decision-making affairs.
After sitting down, he slumped in his chair and sighed weakly: "Thank God, everything was finally delivered. I almost thought it was going to be a mess."
A cup of strong coffee doesn't have any refreshing effect at all.
With a pair of dark circles under his eyes, Huang Xiulun only wanted to take a nap for an hour or two after the meeting to replenish his almost exhausted energy.
The "rookie" mayor is offline every day, but someone has to do the work. The former commander-in-chief has no choice. The entire communication and coordination work between the various departments of "Atlanta" is almost entirely done by Huang Xiulun.
The scientific research institute, which was operating at high capacity, was directly paralyzed. At the first moment of technology delivery and acceptance, the entire department was almost "littered with corpses" and snoring sounds were heard one after another.
The former military leaders of the City Management Committee were also extremely resentful towards the young mayor Chen Fei. Not only was Huang Xiulun forced to work around the clock, but they were not much better off either. They had to be kept busy together until the production line officially started.
"Old Huang, you've worked hard these past few days, but this 'newbie' really doesn't take us seriously. He has no respect at all and even dares to threaten everyone."
At the weekly meeting of the City Management Committee, a former military leader slammed his fist on the table, causing the tea cup to jump violently.
The scene where all the robots were on the verge of a fight without any warning was still fresh in the memory of every human present. No one had expected that this "rookie" would actually dare to do so without even a hint of concealment.
There was no communication, appeasement, coordination, discussion, or dialogue. There were only simple and rough orders: do it or die. No matter who it is, no one can stand such an arrogant guy.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the venue, starting from collecting the first batch of light-transmitting sheets, densely packed robots spread over the entire "skylight" structure like ants, and began to install the "skylight" light-transmitting sheets that were delivered on schedule.
Not all of the 10,000 three-meter-long "sky curtain" light-transmitting sheets will be used, but the planned number cannot be reduced by even one.
"After all, it's understandable and for everyone's sake. You see, the temperature outside has begun to drop. Without these light-transmitting sheets, I'm afraid we won't be able to survive this winter."
Another committee member spoke up to smooth things over, and his reason was plausible. The current snow powder would just melt into acidic fresh water, and if dry ice snow fell, it would really become a disaster. The production of "sky curtain" translucent sheets was indeed an imminent top priority.
One by one, crystal clear light-transmitting sheets were hoisted onto the "sky curtain". The sky outside was overcast with some fine snow powder falling from time to time. The temperature had dropped to minus 2 degrees Celsius and was expected to drop below minus 12 degrees Celsius in 10 hours.
The front lines of the cold currents from the North and South Poles have reached the equator and are preparing to attack the area where "Atlan" is located.
The production of 10,000 pieces depends entirely on the power of modern industry. With thousands of robots working antagonistically, it is estimated that it will only take four hours to install all these hexagonal light-transmitting sheets with a side length of three meters.
The committee member who had slammed the table before said loudly: "Does the 'rookie' really think he is the king who controls life and death? We must let him know that being the king is not that easy!"
Every member present here is a former military leader who controls the military power. If they raise their arms and call for action, there will really be people who will respond.
"Why bother? In the end, we'll end up killing our own people and let 'Sagari' laugh at us from outside!"
Not everyone shares the angry commissioner's attitude.
Even the city management committee was naturally divided into three factions. The supporters, headed by the first sovereign. The "rookie" mayor is at least one of their own, so who else can they support if not him? The opposition faction, including the American Federation and Europe, and the many small sovereigns in Africa, are fence-sitters, who will side with whoever has the upper hand. They usually don't speak at all and are just voting machines to add icing on the cake.
In troubled times, severe punishments must be used. Although the First Sovereign faction was also dissatisfied with Chen Fei's rough style, they could understand it at this critical juncture because there was really no choice.
"I propose that after the Skydome is completed, the City Management Committee impeach the Rookie and re-elect the mayor. Old Huang, I think you should be the mayor! The Rookie, as a young man, should be trained for a few years before we decide! Please raise your hands if you agree. I support impeachment!"
A commissioner from the European Sovereignty Council was the first to raise his hand, ready to remove the unreliable rookie mayor.
"I support it too!"
"I!"
"And I……"
After the first one, there will soon be a second, a third... Inside the conference hall, one hand after another was raised high.
The small sovereign commissioners from Africa also raised their hands hesitantly. Even though the commissioners from the first sovereign circle remained silent and firmly opposed, the number of hands raised on the scene still inevitably tilted towards the "impeachment" resolution.
Two minutes later.
"87 votes in favor, 3 abstentions, 39 votes against, the 'impeachment' resolution passed, and 12 hours later we contacted the mayor and publicly announced the initiation of the 'impeachment' process."
The chairman of the city management committee is the first sovereign.
But they had to bite the bullet and announce the voting results of the temporary proposal.

When the last piece was installed in place, the scattered water snow powder turned into palm-sized water snowflakes, also in the shape of six petals. The cold current from the North and South Poles finally arrived.
The clouds were extremely low, and outside the "sky" it was dark and gloomy.
The lights inside the "sky curtain" filled with translucent sheets lit up, making the entire basin where "Atlan" was located as bright as day.
A large SEG core unit is placed in the center of the umbrella-shaped structure at the top of each supporting column. The repulsive shields released while offsetting the self-weight of the "sky curtain" are connected to each other, which is equivalent to adding a long-term invisible physical protective force field to the outside of the "sky curtain". The snowflakes falling from the sky are naturally pushed away and slide to the edge of the "sky curtain". The electricity generated by the SEG core unit can be used as energy for the lights attached to the inside of the "sky curtain".
The translucent sheets embedded in the honeycomb structure of the "sky curtain" sparkle under the lights, and the light of the magic circle can be vaguely seen.
The core unit of SEG, the "sky curtain" structure plus the light-transmitting sheet with a magic array, is the complete form of the "sky curtain" plan.
Not only the "sky" above was closed, but the entire basin was also covered with silicon carbide material of slightly inferior quality, like a large silicon carbide basin, completely containing the sea water and "Atlanta".
