MidReal Story
The Silent Ocean
Scenario:请写科幻小说，一个科学家发明了一种微生物，把海水转换成凝胶，坚硬无比，可以搭建房子。这样就能填海造陆，可以非常快地利用海洋扩张领土。
各国用这个技术扩张了领土，做了很多事情。
微生物繁衍范围用食物控制。
但是有一天，突然失控了。海洋逐渐凝胶化，进而导致没有雨水。
海面变得沉静，死寂。
结尾：作者在海边说：
曾在海滩边感到平静，现在变成了死寂。

Dr. Elianore Quin
She is a brilliant scientist who dedicated her life to finding a solution for coastal erosion and overpopulation. She is determined, innovative, and reflective. After years of research, Elianore successfully creates a microorganism that can convert seawater into a durable building material.
I still remember the day I first came up with the idea of inventing a microorganism that could transform seawater into a building material.
At that time, I was in my lab, staring at the ocean outside the window.
The ocean that had always been there, yet was constantly changing.
The waves crashed against the shore, eroding parts of it away, while sediment carried by the rivers added new land somewhere else.
It was a natural process, but one that caused a lot of problems for humans living in coastal areas.
Coastal erosion was a big problem, and it was only getting worse with global warming.
I had dedicated my life to finding a solution.
Not just for coastal erosion, but also for the problem of overpopulation.
With more and more people on this planet every year, it was getting harder and harder to find space for them all.
That’s why I wanted to create something that would allow us to build more houses, but without harming the environment.
I sit at my desk, pulling my worn leather notebook closer.
The familiar scratch of my pencil fills the quiet lab as I begin sketching the basic cellular structure.
First, the outer membrane - it needs to be tough, adaptable.
I draw detailed diagrams of the organelles, focusing on how they'll process seawater.
My hand moves faster now, adding notes about potential enzyme combinations in the margins.
The fluorescent lights hum overhead as I work through various iterations.
When I glance at my watch, hours have passed.
My final sketch shows a complex microorganism, its internal machinery precisely mapped out.
Dr. Kim entered the lab, her eyes scanning my sketches with a mix of curiosity and skepticism.
"Do you really think this little creature can solve both erosion and housing issues?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.
I nodded, tapping the page confidently. "If we can engineer it right, it won't just build—it'll revolutionize how we live by the sea."
I prepare the testing environment in my private lab section.
Three identical glass tanks sit on a metal table, each filled with filtered seawater from the bay.
The water is crystal clear, reflecting the fluorescent lights above.
Sensors are attached to the side of each tank, their wires connected to a central computer.
These sensors will monitor the pH, temperature, and mineral content of the water every thirty seconds.
I've already calibrated the equipment earlier that morning, making sure everything is accurate and reliable.
Now, it's time to introduce the microorganisms into each tank.
I carefully extract the first batch from their growth medium using a micropipette.
My hands tremble slightly as I approach the first tank.
The clear liquid inside looks deceptively ordinary.
I take a deep breath, steady my grip, and release three drops of the microbial solution into the water.
Dr. Kim leaned over the tanks, her voice barely above a whisper. "What if they mutate in ways we can't predict?"
I met her gaze, my voice steady. "Then we adapt with them, just like the ocean does."
I lean closer to the first tank, my nose nearly touching the glass as I watch the microorganisms disperse through the water.
They're so small they're almost invisible, but I can see them moving, spreading out like a cloud of tiny particles.
The liquid begins to thicken ever so slightly, taking on a faint opalescent sheen.
I press the record button on my digital recorder, my voice low and steady as I narrate my observations.
"The microorganisms are dispersing through the water, creating a gel-like substance. The viscosity is increasing slowly, but steadily."
I pause, studying the mixture more closely.
"And there... tiny structures are forming. They look like little webs, spreading out through the liquid."
Dr. Kim's footsteps pace behind me, but I don't turn around.
I'm too focused on what's happening in front of me.
The sensors beep steadily, recording changes in the water's properties every thirty seconds.
I make note of each reading, comparing them to my own observations.
The transformation is happening faster than I expected.
I notice a strange vibration coming from the lab sink.
It's subtle at first, but it grows stronger by the second.
I turn away from the tanks and walk over to the sink, my heart pounding in my chest.
The vibration is coming from the drain pipe.
I peer down into the drain, and what I see makes my blood run cold.
There are streaks of luminescent material in the pipe, pulsing with an unnatural blue light.
It's some of the microorganisms - they must have escaped down the drain when we were cleaning up earlier.
"Oh God," I whisper, backing away from the sink slowly.
Dr. Kim rushes to my side, her face pale with fear.
"What is it?" she asks, but I don't have time to answer.
She sees it for herself, her eyes widening in horror.
"We have to stop them," she says, pulling out her tablet to check the building's plumbing schematics.
But it's too late.
The microorganisms have already spread through the pipes, infecting every part of the system. The lights overhead begin to flicker rhythmically, casting eerie shadows on the walls of the lab.
A deep mechanical hum resonates through the walls, growing louder with each pulse of light.
I grab my phone, fumbling for the number of our containment team.
But before I can dial, the signal drops dead.
Dr. Kim's voice trembles as she clutches her tablet. "We need to shut down the main water supply before it reaches the city."
I nod, urgency in my voice. "I'll head to the control room; you try to reroute the system from here."
She grips my arm, her eyes fierce despite the fear. "Promise me we'll fix this before it's too late."
