Excerpt from "International?Orthographic's Guide to Our World Today"

If you were to equip yourself with a hardened environment suit and stand in the middle of a Red Zone, you would see a landscape straight out of hell. The ground is a blasted and barren plateau of rock laced with veins of Tiberium that shine through with a malevolent green radiance. On the horizon are massive formations of pure Tiberium that have welled up through the surrounding earth. These frozen crystalline glaciers cast a sickly emerald glow on the surrounding terrain. Tilt your head and you'll contemplate a cloudy, tortured sky alive with twisting patterns of shimmering light and flickers of lightning. If you wait long enough, you'll see an Ion Storm begin to form, the lightning overhead intensifying until the entire environment is lit with rapid strobing flashes. Eventually the vast and terrible energy overhead will begin arcing to the ground around you in a terrifying display of destructive force. These fireworks are accompanied by a howling toxic whirlwind that scours the deserted ground and drives shards of Tiberium before it at insane speeds.

?Red Zones are like the surface of an alien world. Scientists have speculated that Tiberium is actually a terraforming agent for an alien civilization, slowly transforming our world into an environment suitable for beings that have evolved on a different planet. No definitive conclusions have been reached.

如果你穿上厚重的環(huán)境防護服，站在紅區(qū)中央，你就會看見地獄般的景象。地面是被詛咒荒蕪的巖石高原，由閃爍著邪惡綠光的泰礦礦脈裝飾。在地平線上是大量的純粹泰礦由地里拔出，。那些冰冷的水晶冰川在周圍的地面上投射出病態(tài)的翡翠綠光。仰起頭，你就會看見多云的，備受折磨的天空，充斥著陽光與電光交織扭曲的景象。如果你停留的夠久，就能看見離子風暴出現(xiàn)，頭頂?shù)拈W電不斷加劇，直到整片環(huán)境都被快速閃爍的電光照亮。最后頭頂龐大而可怕的能量將向你周圍的陸地投下電弧，展現(xiàn)出可怕的毀滅力量。這些煙花由呼嘯的有毒旋風伴隨，這些旋風沖刷著荒涼的土地，以瘋狂地速度吹動著泰礦碎片。

?紅區(qū)就像外星世界的表面。科學家猜測泰伯利亞是外星文明的地表改造劑，緩慢地將我們的世界轉(zhuǎn)化為適應另一個不同星球進化的生物居住的環(huán)境。但目前還沒有明確的結(jié)論。
