Chapter 129 Variation and Evolution
Chapter 129 Variation and Evolution
The people at Shangyang base were very nervous. The patrolling mutant mice moved too fast, and in the natural environment, animals knew how to hide better than humans, so they couldn't catch the scouting mice at all. I don't know if I have been exposed.
Although holding up the binoculars, the people in Shangyang Base have already begun to sweat. They always feel that there are one or two mutant mice hiding around, and they have clearly detected their hiding places.At the same time, those people outside are still planting trees!Plant your uncle's tree!are you crazy!Either go to war or leave, what does this move mean!
Crystal Palace has cooperated with several other bases several times, and now they are very tacit, and there is no confusion in the scene.Mutant mice are responsible for transporting and distributing saplings. After each person receives a certain amount of saplings, they will find their own direction according to the previous distribution and plant trees honestly.
Arriving here, in fact, most people have already understood that they have migrated to the residential area in the northern hemisphere, the vast continent is just around the corner, and the long life on the water is coming to an end.
Even so, no one was in a hurry and acted without authorization. With the Crystal Palace, their life on the water was not as bad as imagined, and they could even exchange it for cheating devices such as micro-farms. Not interested, the food is the real thing.
Speaking of which, the Micro Ranch seems to be exchanged only by the people of the Crystal Palace itself. It really is a magical base. There are so many people who like to eat grasshoppers. I don’t know why there is such a strange taste?Don't they have a lot of edible mutated biological meat stored in their base?Why are you still obsessed with the little protein stuffed between the teeth of the grasshopper?
Everyone in the Crystal Palace is obsessed with roasted grasshoppers, which is obviously beyond the comprehension of others. Before mastering the mutated biological purification formation, roasted grasshoppers were the most delicious smell they have ever smelled, so even if the supply of meat is sufficient now, roasted grasshoppers Grasshoppers are still an unsurpassable delicacy in their hearts.Roasted grasshoppers have unknowingly become a culture of the Crystal Palace.
Although it is midsummer, the trees on Shangya Mountain are still not very lush. The trees don’t seem to like to be close to each other, and they grow far apart. From a distance, the whole mountain looks like a middle-aged man who is facing the crisis of hair loss. It is sparse and pitiful.
However, even in such an environment, it is considered acceptable on the Cangzhan Star today. At least the animals and plants here still have room to grow, at least the storm did not destroy everything, at least the terrifying thunder and lightning did not visit here.
For this land, which is barren in the eyes of outsiders, but precious in Cangzhan Star, the people at Shangyang base are ready to fight to the death.The land is limited, and the number of people that can be raised is limited. In the face of survival, everyone will burst out with unprecedented courage and determination.
The people at Shangyang base never thought that this huge fleet would leave. After all, they came from the south, which is enough to show that there is no suitable foothold south of here, except for a few plateaus, which should all be submerged by water.
Continuing to the north, there are more and more powerful bases. Because those bases are located on high terrain, their foundations are not affected by the water level, and the trees are big and deep. They have existed on Cangzhan Star for many years. After the Cang Zhan Star was destroyed and identified as a barren star, those bases existed.
Even the Shangyang base did not dare to move north rashly. Once the communication is not smooth, the bases will not show any kindness to each other.
When the Shangyang base was fully armed, Shu Shuishui, Gu Langu, Nan Ge and Liu Po also gathered together, and Shu Shuishui informed them of the results of the mutant rat's investigation.
A slight surprise appeared on Nan Ge's face. "The people at Shangyang base didn't withdraw to the north, but stayed in Shangya Mountain?"
"It's really unreasonable. This mountain doesn't look suitable for living. Unless you have to, you won't choose to move here." Liu Po also felt that things were different. "It seems that something happened in the northern hemisphere. The terrain of Cangzhan star is high in the north and low in the south. The power in the northern hemisphere has long been stable. Although the land resources are precious, there must be a lot of empty towns that can be lived in. As long as you pay a certain amount, no one will refuse. , Shangyang base should not be so poor."
Even those in the southern hemisphere have migrated here. It is impossible for the northern hemisphere to be unprepared. The bases in the northern hemisphere are familiar with each other. They rent high-altitude land by paying rent. After the rainy season passes, they can naturally return to the previous station. reasonable guesswork.
There is a base on the mountain, and it is also a base that seems to explode when touched, which feels very unpleasant.
Fighting is definitely a bad idea. Now that we are in the doomsday era, the population resources are precious, and there is no reason to kill each other.But if they go directly to communicate and have a dialogue, the possibility of gaining the trust of the other party is relatively low. For a while, Nan Ge didn't know what action to take.
Shu Shuishui's thinking is relatively simple. First of all, this mountain obviously does not meet the requirements of Shu Shuishui's residence. It is only planted with spiritual trees to create a spiritual support point for the global guardian formation, so the Crystal Palace will not be here. Stay too long, seven days at most, and they'll leave.Therefore, there is absolutely no need to conflict with the Shangyang base, and their greening of the mountains can also be regarded as improving the environment of the mountains.
"Well, let the squirrels be more vigilant, redefine the planting area, and avoid the settlement area of the Shangyang base. We only need to plant trees and leave in five to seven days depending on the situation." Shu Shuishui said.
"Is this okay?" Liu Po hesitated, because what Shu Shuishui said was too simple.
"It should be possible. If they wanted to fight, they would have fought earlier. Now the Squirrel has basically figured out the location and scope of the Shangyang base, and even their investigators probably have checked it out." Shu Shuishui didn't think the two sides If you can fight, just plant a tree, just use a shovel, there is no need to use a knife or a gun.
Gulan Gu nodded, and fully agreed with Shu Shuishui's statement. "Since the Shangyang base has not been able to move to a place further north, it is enough to show that its own strength has been affected to a certain extent. The strength of our fleet is not weak. They don't want to head-on, so they can calm down until now."
In the end, the decision of the fleet is to plant trees diligently, make money happily, and live a lively life just like in the past when greening.Of course, reliable rats and people were dispatched for vigilance, and the news about Shangyang base was only known to a small number of people.
Because of the terrible execution ability of the people in the Crystal Palace and the rats, the people at the Shangyang base found that no one in the fleet entered their attack range.The two sides maintained a delicate balance in this way, and the Shangyang base stood still, watching the group of people planting plants near the landing point, giving them a feeling of watching a green environment documentary.
After experiencing a series of emotional changes such as tension, doubt, irritation, baldness, vigilance, and inexplicable, the leadership of Shangyang Base finally returned to reason.In the end, it was decided that until the fleet showed no malice, its own side would not do anything.After all, judging from the current state, this fleet has no intention of using this mountain as a place of residence.
On the first day, the Shangyang base was extremely vigilant, on the second day, the Shangyang base was even more vigilant, and on the third day, the people in the Shangyang base began to doubt life.Why is it that the other party escaped from the same deserted star, but lives a life of planting trees, barbecues, and talking about the world every day, while I suffer from hunger and humiliation?
On the fourth day, the mentality of the people at the Shangyang base was a little bit broken, because in that fleet, barbecue seemed to be commonplace, staple food, vegetables and fruits were even more varied, and some even brewed wine. They wore comfortable clothes and only needed a variety of On the tree, there is no trace of exhaustion and worry for survival on the face. It seems that it is more like a journey than an escape.
On the fifth day, the people at the Shangyang base were ready to move and had the intention to take the initiative to go to war. The fleet was so rich in supplies that it was obviously a fat sheep.However, this idea quickly dissipated in front of the force displayed intentionally or unintentionally by the other party. There were also patrolling people in the fleet. The weapons in their hands seemed to have been modified, and there were even some high-tech weapons exchanged through the simulated space.His whole body exuded an aura of being wealthy and untouchable.
On the sixth day, the people in the Shangyang base were depressed, feeling as if they were carefully guarding a gem that they thought was precious, but a jewel merchant came and looked down on their gem at all.
On the seventh day, the people at Shangyang base were surprised to find that the other party had withdrawn!When the day just dawned, the people in the fleet moved quickly, packed everything, and boarded the ship.It wasn't until the shadow of the fleet shrank to the size of a palm in the distance that they finally believed that the other party had really given up on this land and left.
When the people from Shangyang base came out to check, they found that there were several bundles of saplings near the landing point, which is where those people were stationed these days.The surrounding area has long been a thriving scene. Although the saplings just planted are still very young, each one seems to be exuding tenacious vitality.
There was a piece of paper next to the bundles of young saplings. After opening it, there was a paragraph of words.
The above is a brief introduction of several kinds of saplings planted. There are three kinds of saplings planted on the mountain, all of which are amphibious, and the fruits of two of them are edible and grow quickly, and the other is very good. Water storage plants can play an important role in the dry season following the rainy season.
Below the introduction of the saplings, there is a message for the Shangyang base: "Hi! Friend, although I haven't met, I am very happy to meet you. I will give you these four bundles of saplings. I hope you will fall in love with planting trees, okay? !"
Everyone at Shangyang Base. "...What the hell is it?"
Shu Shuishui was the one who left the note. As for what, it was really influenced by the little flags of the squirrels recently. Something written by Shui Shui.
Although the fleet left, it brought a touch of color and vitality to the Shangyang base in this seemingly hopeless doomsday era.
After a brief hesitation, the people at Shangyang Base took the saplings away and started planting trees themselves.During the process of planting trees, many people still wondered if they were also bewitched by evil spirits and planted trees!Or stuck in the question of who am I, where am I, and why am I planting trees.
"Fourth, I didn't even think about the meaning of the fleet until now. Looking at the note left behind, they obviously found us, and there was a battle of strength. Instead of attacking, they left some supplies on their own initiative. The saplings don't seem to have any offensive power, why are they doing this?"
Why did they do this? This is a question that many people in Shangyang base can't figure out. It won't take too long for many bases in the northern hemisphere to have the same question.
Of course, as time goes by, their questions will be slowly answered, especially those young saplings, which will bring many surprises and shelter to their lives. At that time, they will understand that this tree named Crystal Palace The fleet is not planting trees, but planting hope and protection.
The people at the Shangyang base have lifted the crisis and lived a peaceful and difficult life again, but as the saplings grow, they will find different surprises.
After leaving, Shu Shuishui and his party continued to drive north. During the seven days they stayed, there were enough squirrels to inquire about the news, especially the squirrel cubs. It was really easy to inquire about the news.The squirrel truthfully told Shu Shuishui what he had heard, and Shu Shuishui was relaying it to others. Therefore, it seemed that there was no gain in these seven days, but in fact, he had already understood almost everything he should know.
Something really happened in the northern hemisphere, that is, the collective rampage of mutated creatures.In the case of a large area of land being submerged, not only humans migrated, but also a large number of creatures, and most of the creatures that successfully arrived in the northern hemisphere were mutated creatures.
The instinct of creatures to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages allows them to choose a favorable natural environment to live in.Most of those mountain forests rich in materials have become the territory of mutated creatures.
People in the northern hemisphere also thought about eradicating them, but the large base has its own safe territory for living, not to mention the heavy damage caused by hunting mutant creatures, and the benefits are still small, so naturally they don't want to waste money and material resources.A small base itself is not strong enough, and rashly eradicating mutant creatures may be in danger of being wiped out.
What's more, after several clean-up operations, they were horrified to find that an unknown number of mutated creatures seemed to have mutated intelligence, that is to say, they began to know how to fight wits and bravely with humans.
I don't know when, the actions of the mutated creatures began to become regulated, and even the rage seemed to become controllable. Once the humans attacked, the mutated creatures would go berserk collectively, causing almost all the confiscators to be annihilated.
Such a dangerous situation, coupled with today's difficult living conditions, human beings are still too busy to take care of themselves, and gradually no one mentions the matter of suppression.And this also means that the northern hemisphere has lost a large amount of habitable land. Therefore, even if they pay high rewards, large bases are unwilling to rent out their territories. Therefore, a large number of forces such as Shangyang base can only choose some environments. Harsh area migration.
"The mutated creatures have formed a large scale, and they seem to be between different races, which is really surprising." Liu Po sighed, and this is the reason why he had already known the squirrels in advance. "People who want to come to the northern hemisphere have a huge sense of crisis about it."
Ember is a little eager to try. "There are many unique creatures in the northern hemisphere. I don't know if it's good or not."
Xie Feng stood beside him, speechless. "It's hard to say whether there will be life or not."
"You don't need to talk about me, we are the same, don't say you don't want to eat, talk about food, where is Shui Shui? It seems that you don't go out very much these days."
Ember and Xie Feng argue daily, but when it comes to food, they both think of Shu Shui Shui.
A group of people stood at the bow of the boat and basked in the cool breeze. Today is still cloudy, so Shu Shuishui and Gulan Gu should not be basking in the sun on the balcony.
Nanfang volunteered to go to the dormitory to find the two, and it was almost lunch time anyway.
Nan Ge is still analyzing the content of Shu Shuishui's report, planning the most suitable route for the development of Crystal Palace. Going to war directly is the worst policy. Of course, Crystal Palace is not afraid of going to war. Nan Ge still has confidence in the strength of his base.
But in the northern hemisphere, the Crystal Palace has no foundation after all, so it is best to choose to open up a territory by itself, but the specific situation of the mutant creatures has not been clarified yet, so it is hard to say at the moment. "Cheng Que, how is your research going?"
Cheng Que subconsciously pushed his glasses before answering. "It has been confirmed that the environment is not the decisive factor, but it is the dominant factor. The gray rats will not be violent because of the environment of the valley where the Crystal Palace used to be. But along the way, I have also conducted research on other mutant creatures and found that almost all of them Mutated creatures and berserk phenomena are undergoing benign transformation, that is to say, even if the environment is not suitable, as long as there is enough time, the mutated creatures will eventually evolve spontaneously and eliminate the berserk phenomenon. As for the specific factors, they are still being studied..."
The specific factors are actually Cheng Que locked on the energy stone, and he also found that the energy stone of the Cang Zhan star is undergoing a certain mutation very slowly. This mutation may be the main reason for the biological mutation, but there is still a solid argument.
In the valley where the Crystal Palace used to be, the energy stones in it are different from those in other places. It is said that there was once defined by Shu Shuishui as a treasure land of geomantic omen, maybe this is the reason.
"Do you think this is like an evolution of life?" Xie Feng said.
The others were silent for a moment, then nodded in unison. "It's not just evolution, it feels like imitating the Star Continent."
