"No!" Zero shook his head, he said strangely, "The size of the heads we recovered hasn't changed much from before, and they can't be compared to the ones in the Life Forbidden Zone!"

This abnormal growth comparison made Cheng Yuan realize that there seemed to be some changes in it that he didn't understand.

They are all metal creatures hatched in the same batch of embryos, why is there one that grows extremely fast, and the other is very ordinary?

It stands to reason that the energy in the forbidden area of life is definitely not as much as that outside, and if you want to say that it grows fast, the outside grows faster than the inside, right?

Could it be that there is really something good in the forbidden area of life?

"Look up why. Curiosity arose, which made Cheng Yuan a little itchy.

If this reason can be found, does it mean that he is also looking for some kind of richer, higher quality energy?

Think about it, even a metal creature as huge as a star can be supported, and if such a substance is studied and used well, the benefits will definitely be extraordinary!

"Hmm. Zero nodded and answered.

Cheng Yuan was curious, and he also wanted to know the reason for this!

And at this moment, a special guess suddenly popped up in his mind!

"Cheng Yuan, don't you think it's strange?" asked Zero thoughtlessly.

Cheng Yuan didn't react for a while, he thought that Zero was talking about the growth of metal creatures, and he replied very seriously: "Yes, it's strange, this kind of polarized growth is too extreme." ”

"......" Zero glanced at Cheng Yuan, who was thinking seriously, helplessly, and said with a smile: "I mean the forbidden area of life!"

"Life Forbidden Zone?" Cheng Yuan also reacted at this time that the conversation between the two just now was not on the same line at all, he smiled awkwardly, and then continued to ask: "What's wrong with the Life Forbidden Zone?"

Zero explained solemnly: "We also know now that space is filled with all kinds of energy, and the most basic dark energy is spread throughout the universe. If there was no energy, how would this space come to be? And I don't think it was the same as it is now!"

This question made Cheng Yuan stunned.

Oh, yes!

If there really isn't any energy in the Life Forbidden Zone, how did it come to be?

Isn't this a complete refutation of the previous theory?

"Could it be that the basic energy has disappeared, so that this space has gradually shrunk?" Cheng Yuan was shocked, if this conclusion was true, did it mean that the excessive use of dark energy would have some kind of impact on the cosmic space where he was located?

Although he did not need to think about this problem at all with his current level of use, he was very interested in this kind of research involving theory.

Hypothesis, hypothesis!

This hypothesis is based on a certain theory, and the crazy brain-opening ideas and speculations are carried out.

There are even some hypotheses that directly put aside the theoretical basis and say whatever you think!

Zero didn't have as many other thoughts as Cheng Yuan, and he said worriedly: "I suspect that there is some kind of substance in the Life Forbidden Zone that can absorb a large amount of energy, because the existence of this substance leads to the appearance of the Life Forbidden Zone!"

And now, for some reason we don't know yet, this substance has been fused or devoured by our metal creatures, which has caused them to grow like crazy!"

"You seem to have a lot of truth when you say that. Cheng Yuan pondered for a moment and thought that this statement was indeed very possible.

After all, the energy of a space cannot disappear for no reason.

Moreover, this space is not small, at least so far he has not officially confirmed the size and scope of this life forbidden area, but according to the exploration records on the Zerg's Overseer, he has a relatively vague answer.

"So what do you think now?" asked Cheng Yuan.

If Zero's guess was true, he couldn't let the Life Forbidden Zone continue to be open.

Because if he keeps it in this state, the metal creatures inside will continue to grow, and he doesn't care much about the growth of metal creatures.

After all, as long as these creatures don't get out of control, there's nothing wrong with that.

The point is, if that strange substance that can absorb energy like crazy is mixed into their side from the forbidden area of life, then the problem will be a big problem!

If the entrance to the wormhole near the solar system is his outpost, then the entrance to the forbidden area of life is his transit station.

This line is related to his plundering of the Crystal Spirit Empire!

He didn't want to let himself lose this channel that had taken a lot of resources and time to build because of this unknown problem.

In particular, he is now equipped with a dark energy reactor, and the appearance of this thing has directly captured his lifeblood! He will never allow this unknown substance to appear in their place!

"I think we need to observe for a while, and wait for the Zerg matter to pass. Zero thought for a moment and replied.

Although Cheng Yuan wanted to block the entrance to the space immediately, what Zero said was also very right, and now he still needs to continue to observe for a while, after all, it is just a guess, and he can't confirm anything.

Maybe their guess was wrong, but it wasn't necessarily that the metal creatures devoured that substance as part of their evolution!

Because according to their speculation, the energy demand for this substance is also enormous.

However, their metal creatures also need energy, and there is a competition between the two, how can metal creatures grow so fast under such conditions!?

So, it may be that there is no guess that the two have some kind of connection, either becoming symbiotes or being devoured by metal creatures and becoming part of their own evolution.

If it's the former, then he needs to guard against it.

If it is the latter, Cheng Yuan will consider whether to get more embryos and send them in?

It's not that he's greedy.

It's that the existence of the Zerg puts too much pressure on him, if he can create a batch of such an army, even if the Zerg attack, he won't be like now, shrinking back and not even daring to come out!

At least with the metal creature, he may be lacking in offense, but defensively he is definitely in place!

As long as there is something to protect himself, he doesn't have to cower.

Therefore, Cheng Yuan agreed with Zero's approach.

However, there may also be the possibility of devouring, so Cheng Yuan ordered: "Zero, prepare another batch of embryos." ”

Zero was stunned for a moment, and then he quickly reacted, and he worried: "We are not sure about the specific situation yet, will this be ......"

"Don't worry, at least be prepared!"
