4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
Chaotic Sword God Chapter 1798
"what is that……"
When the virtual people raised their heads because they doubted that the sky was darkening, they saw some ... weird things.
The darkened sky has no starry sky, but it moves slowly.
It feels like a huge ... cloth.
Yes ... like a huge, black cloth, it suddenly appeared to cover the sky, so the surroundings became like night.
But as this piece of cloth moved slowly, bright light appeared at its edges, and the sky began to recover slowly.
When the darkness of the sky was completely removed, the surroundings changed back to the day before.
"That seems to be some kind of creature ..." Looking at the black moving away from the sky, the scholar asked the Burrower: "Do you know its information?"
"That thing is called a 'partial shadow'." Burrower said: "Except for knowing that it occasionally darkens a region, everything is a mystery."
"Okay ..." The scholar turned and said to the virtual people behind him: "We ... move on!"
Then, the scholar and its team members moved slowly, maintaining full alertness, and they walked out of this blue ground.
And what appeared in front of them was ... a vast wasteland.
But it is not a pure wasteland, because there are many pothole structures on the ground, and within the potholes are shining bright light, like a mirror in it.
"Don't get close to the pits," said the Howler. "That's a big creature. It's buried beneath the ground. When it senses something in the pit, it will conduct heat to the pit and give it to ... Cooked. "
"It seems a bit dangerous here ..." the scholar said: "Then we'll go around. How far is it from the target camp?"
"Pause here for the first time," said Burrower. "This position is safer, and I'm not sure if I can move on."
"I'm not sure ..." the scholar asked: "What does this mean?"
"The biological behavior here has changed." Explosive worm said: "They haven't changed much before, but until I came here just now, I found that they have changed a lot, so the 'safe place' previously booked may be It will become unsafe, so you need to re-determine the safety point, in short, stop here. "
"……so be it."
According to the opinions of the snarling bug, the scholar asked the team members to set up a tent here, which is just the interval between the 'blue zone' and the 'mirror zone'. Very safe look.
After the tents were set up, the team members responsible for the research conducted various investigations around them, and the soldiers were watching around.
And scholars have been watching the pothole plain in front ...
The mirrors in the potholes above the plain continue to reflect the dazzling light. Although this light is very dazzling, it has an inexplicable sense of attraction, making scholars want to approach the potholes to see.
The scholar restrained this emotion, but the scholar noticed that a small creature flew down from the sky and fell beside a pothole.
This creature has four black wings. The body is cylindrical, about one meter long and covered with black fine hair. After flying down, it first crawled around the pothole with its wings and circled a few times. Climb into the pit.
'hiss--!'
A burst of screaming sounded, and scholars found a black smoke erupting in the potholes.
The scholar couldn't help standing up, walked over to the pothole, and found that the four-winged creature in the pothole was actually burnt as if it was struck by lightning, and its thin hair was scorching smoke.
"This is really powerful ..." The scholar wanted to get closer and watch carefully, and the sound of the popping bug rang out: "Don't get closer."
"Okay." The scholar stopped and just stood beside the pit to observe. It only noticed that the light on the pit did not seem to be so bright, even if it was so close, it did not feel dazzling.
At the same time, scholars also saw that the charred corpse in the pit was slowly ... sinking into it.
As if it was the feeling of sinking into the swamp, the whole body was sinking into the mirror bit by bit ... the body, wings, and the last remaining fine hair disappeared without a trace.
The mirror is restored to the smooth and bright past, spotless, as if nothing has ever fallen on it.
"What kind of creature is this ..." The scholar became more and more fascinated, and asked the Burrower: "Can ... test it?"
"I don't have a complete understanding of this kind of creatures," Burrower said. "Doing so may cause unpredictable consequences, but you can give it a go. Curious about this emotion may cause a people to die, or it may cause the entire death. Civilization has achieved great achievements, and as the saying goes, how can you start a great adventure without going to death? "
"I'll just say you don't always talk about the movie ..." The scholar said: "Forget it, try it anyway."
With that said, the scholar picked up a stone and dropped it on the mirror.
After the stone was dropped, the same thing as before ... didn't happen. It's better to say that nothing happened. It lay there quietly, without sinking in or burning.
"It seems that it can recognize food and non-food ..." The scholar said puzzledly: "That's strange, why is the mirror so clean? There should be a lot of small gravel and dust on it, or it will be timed Clean up ... "
"Be careful! Roll over quickly!"
Suddenly, the sound of the popping worm was heard, and the scholar also noticed that a huge black shadow was rushing in the sky.
The scholar immediately rolled on the spot, and the shadow fell on its place. The scholar found that the shadow was a sharp object, something like ... a spear.
The scholar subconsciously thought whether something was throwing a spear from a distance, and the guards beside the camp also noticed the situation here, and they hurried over immediately.
"Who is attacking here?" A guard raised his arms and looked up to the sky, but although this 'spear' flew from the sky, he could not see anything there.
'Ka!'Just as they stared at the sky, the spear on the ground suddenly flew up. In the eyes of the vain people, this spear moved slowly in the air until it was lost by the scholar. On that pothole.
Then the spear stuck to the stone that the scholar threw in, and then it whizzed ... flew back to the sky at a faster speed than before, and then disappeared.
"Then ... what is it?"
The scholars and soldiers watched in a daze, completely unable to understand what was going on.
However, after this time, the scholars did not randomly go to those mirrored potholes ...
In this way, after a period of time, probably a few virtual people day and night, during this period, the bursting worm decided to let the scholars establish a camp here, not to find new places.
The scholars basically agreed, and other researchers also said it didn't matter. Then the scholar contacted the general.
After the general knew, he decided to send more troops to build a large camp at this location, so that he could observe the place through this camp for a long time.
Now scholars and these researchers are not going back so quickly, but continue to study here for a while.
Although they say so, they basically dare not go far, but have been conducting research near the camp, and scholars have been observing the pothole.
After observing it for a while, it basically knew what was the spear thrown last time.
It seems to be a ... invisible creature, at least there is no way to detect or look directly, hidden in the air may have a height of tens of meters, and will drop something like a spear.
Behind this spear is a transparent thread or something connected, so it can be retracted, and the purpose of dropping the spear is ... three.
The first is to snatch food. Scholars later saw several creatures fall on the mirror surface and were burnt. At this time, the spear occasionally dropped, and then the burnt creatures were glued away.
The second is to help clean up the mirror. From the point of predation, the spear-throwing creature seems to be hostile to the mirror, but it will help the mirror clean up those things that fall on it, such as stones, etc. The dust on the mirror surface will sink directly and disappear, while the large stones need a spear to clean up ...
The third is that the spear will also attack creatures wandering in the pothole mirror area, even if it does not fall into the pothole.
Recording the attack pattern and habits of this creature, as well as the power and speed of the attack, the scholar feels that he can pass through this pothole area without being attacked.
However, the snarling bug let it stay here a little longer, don't run around, so the scholars continue to study here.
In fact, scholars are more interested in mirrors than spear-throwing creatures. How does this creature work?How does it eat?
When scholars doubted this, the generals' first troops arrived. These troops included a group of soldiers and some construction workers, as well as remote control machines for construction.
Here they plan to build a metal fence with a diameter of about 100 meters, and then build a building in the fence.
This also fits the size of this safe area.
But this army brought more than what the vain people used to build the camp, and some ... other things.
These are some small alloy spiders, they are mainly used for more subtle research.
They allow scholars to understand what is going on with that mirror. At the same time, some of the scholars ... companions are here, and these companions say they want to take risks with this scholar in this world.
