Chapter 459: The History of the Extinction of the Venus Civilization
Yang Pingfan's already frozen feelings fluctuated slightly, this was the first time he saw an extraterrestrial civilization enter his home planet, and for a moment, he wanted to destroy this probe, but in the end he chose to wait and see from God's perspective.
A sudden galewind blew the Venusians' probes to the inland areas of Pangea, which was far from the ocean and extremely arid, and the Venusians' probes landed in the endless desert, and the footage was transmitted back, and the Venusians were filled with a depressed mood for the first time, although they observed a few desert creatures, but this obviously did not meet the living needs of their molluscs.
After a few explorations, the Venusians' interest in Earth began to decrease, and they continued to spiral forward in internal competition, but a sense of crisis began to fill the hearts of some creatures who are sensitive to the outside world.
The sense of crisis comes from the sun, at this time the sun is changing from adolescence to adulthood, the nuclear fusion reaction is getting stronger and stronger, the radiation energy emitted is getting stronger and stronger, and there will be small-scale flashes from time to time, as the second closest planet to the sun, Venus has begun to be affected by high temperatures and droughts.
In this situation, people of insight within the Venus civilization began to run and call for the Venusian civilization to unite and prepare for the impending crisis.
Most of the Venusians scoffed at such alarmism, but there were still a few top elites who planned ahead and began to secretly build spacecraft that could reach Earth.
The restlessness became more and more intense, because of the environmental degradation caused by the high temperature, so that Venus began to fall into a large-scale war for survival resources, and the spaceship secretly built by the magnates was also discovered.
The end came so suddenly, just when all the Venusians were scolding these cowards who fled with the spaceship, an abnormal reaction occurred inside the sun, just like an adolescent child losing his temper, this abnormal reaction produced a super gamma-ray burst, a deadly ray burst swept across the entire solar system, and the natural environment of the three sisters of Venus, Earth, and Mars were severely damaged.
Venus, as the closest one, was even more devastating, the ocean, atmosphere and magnetic field were completely destroyed, without the magnetic field, gamma-ray bursts and various deadly cosmic rays unscrupulously destroyed the fragile life of Venus.
In a short period of time, Venusian creatures are almost dead, the carbon on the planet is oxidized into carbon dioxide by the sensing temperature and cosmic radiation, the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere soars to 97%, forming a serious greenhouse effect, the surface temperature of Venus is as high as 500 °C, the oceans, rivers and lakes are all evaporated, and the surviving Venusians are also killed by heat, suffocation, starvation, and thirst in the deep shelter......
The high temperature causes all the water sources on the surface of Venus to evaporate, forming a dense water vapor that surrounds the surface of Venus, steaming the surface of Venus like a steamer, and life continues to wither, and even the most tenacious microorganisms cannot support it.
Because the magnetic field was destroyed, Venus could not block the attack of the solar wind, and the evaporated water vapor was constantly broken down into hydrogen and oxygen by the solar wind, and the hydrogen atoms escaped into space because of their small mass, and could no longer be reconstituted into water, and finally, the disappearance of water resources made the biosphere of Venus completely extinct.
This ray also destroyed the earth's biosphere, causing heavy damage to life on the earth, but because of the distance, it was not as desperate as Venus, the first to bear the brunt of the plants, large-scale withering and withering, there was no green plants, the biological chain collapsed, the famine spread to the world, more than sixty percent of the animals starved to death, the earth's temperature continued to drop, the sea water formed glaciers, the shallow sea land exposed to the water, hunger and cold, the signs of life on the earth's surface gradually became extinct, the earth also fell into a dead silence, only some plankton hid near the deep-sea hydrothermal vents, surviving for breath。
The Venus spacecraft that escaped by luck was unable to land normally because the navigation system was disturbed by a gamma-ray burst, but fell to Earth in a crash-like way and sank in the deep sea of the Southern Hemisphere.
The ship was stuck in a trench at a 45° angle, and it appeared to be an incomparably large city, all sunk to the bottom of the sea, except for the antennas and rocket vents that emerged like boulder fortresses, and the passengers inside were sleeping there.
Yang Pingfan can observe the spaceship from all angles, its structure is similar to Futurist art, and the structure of the buildings is abnormal, completely contrary to Euclidean geometry.
Its never-before-seen spatial structure and dimensional dimensions can cause people to feel a strong sense of disgust. The buildings are made of gigantic, too large green stone to come from the earth, as well as dizzyingly high boulder carvings, magnificent stone statues and ornate reliefs, and the whole city exudes a strong smell of uncleanness.
The huge pillars protruding from the surface of the sea are greeted by a coastline composed of silt, wetlands, and huge moss-covered stones, which are completely different from any stone used by humans in later generations, because the Venusians use brain waves to communicate, and the few people who hold this spaceship over are the top people in the Venusians, so although they are in a coma, their brain waves can still continue to spread outward, and even affect the lower life on Earth.

Nightmarish and terrifying, its gigantic form born from the dark stars was built centuries ago, and the mighty Venusians inhabit it, hidden in moss-covered slippery crypts.
Miasma rose from the twisted sea-soaked complex, which was so distorted by the sun that the surrounding stones appeared convex at first glance, but at first glance they seemed to be concave, and the twisted edges and corners of the stones seemed to hide a sinister threat and impatience.
Just when Venus and the Earth's biosphere were hit hard, Mars, which was far away, ushered in a big development -
When the earth's primitive amphibians were ready to climb onto land, Martian life was still toddler in the ocean near the equator, because it was the farthest from the sun among the three planets that gave birth to life, so when Venus developed civilization and began to step into space, Mars was still the lowest temperature, and the whole planet was covered in thick glaciers, and only the equatorial region would have a brief ice melt in summer, revealing the majestic land.
The gamma-ray burst was a rite of passage, heralding the Sun's steady coming-of-age, albeit at the cost of the complete destruction of Venus' biosphere.
As the sun entered the heyday of maturity and stability, the earth and Mars received more radiant heat energy, the glaciers began to melt, and the plankton of the earth began to evolve again, but Mars was at the forefront of the evolution of life because it was not extinct.
Yang Pingfan's life has entered another form, and every day and year is like a white horse passing by to him, and he is like a god observing the evolution of the earth.
Time turned to the Ordovician, when the daily time of the earth was 21 hours instead of 24 hours, the earth's climate became mild after the cold invasion, pancontinents have not yet been formed, South America, Australia, southern Europe, Africa, India and Antarctica formed the Gondwana continent in the reference time and space, and the rest of the land split into a series of islands distributed around the world.
The Ordovician was the most severe period of sea invasion in the history of the earth, the sea level was 400 meters higher than the reference time and space of later generations, and one-third of the land was covered by shallow seas.
The shallow sea is widespread, and many parts of the world are covered by shallow sea water, so the marine life that re-evolved from plankton has been unprecedentedly developed, brachiopods, molluscs, echinoderms, arthropods, coelenterates have all begun to appear, the earliest vertebrates have begun to appear, they are a jawless fish, corals have also begun to appear, although the compound corals are still relatively primitive, but they have been able to form small reefs, the plants are still dominated by marine algae, and the land is still bare rocks, and weathered sand and dust, a desolation.
There were no animals on land during the Ordovician period, plants did not appear at all at that time, and all animals lived in the ocean.
The animals of that time were also very different from those of the baseline space-time, and the top predator in the sea was the straight-shelled nautilus, which was 6 meters long and weighed 150 kilograms, and was the ancestor of cephalopod mollusks such as nautilus and octopus, and it ate almost everything, including trilobites, star turtles, horseshoe crabs and other animals.
Of course, the straight-shelled nautilus has a rival – the largest arthropod ever created: the 3.6-metre-long horseshoe crab.
Plate-footed horseshoe crabs, which look like a huge, tail-hooked scorpion, are one of the oldest arthropods, and often compete with straight-shelled nautilus for food, but are always outmatched by them.
The animals of the sea live leisurely, and no one realizes that the catastrophe is coming.
The destruction of the Venusian biosphere did not cause any fluctuations in Yang Pingfan's already frosted feelings, and he observed the evolution of life on his home planet with great interest, but he did not know that a catastrophe that would be the end of life on Earth was coming.
6000 light-years away from the earth, a neutron star and a black hole collided for unknown reasons, producing several gamma-ray bursts, this ray burst, strength and lethality, are countless times higher than the previous eruption of the sun, and different from the diffuse explosion of the sun, the ray burst produced by the collision of neutron star and black hole, with a strong concentration of energy, the direction is highly concentrated, launched to several positions, like a sniper accidentally killed on the way to lurk, his sniper rifle was accidentally fired, unfortunately, the earth is just on the route of the stray bullet flight。
One of the gamma-ray bursts hit the Earth impartially, and the high-energy rays shattered the gas molecules, and the Earth's atmosphere suddenly became fragmented.
