Chapter 122: The Origin of the Devonian

Shouldn't it be distinguished?" Chu Yu's eyes looked thoughtful.

"Yes, just as you came here, and the creatures of the underground, maybe one day, will also go to the surface. ”

The old emperor's tone was very inexplicable, looking directly at Chu Yu, as if expressing another layer of obscure meaning.

Chu Yu's brows wrinkled into Sichuan characters unconsciously.

The surface exists above the earth, and the earth exists above the surface, and the two worlds, very different, seem to be inseparable.

Chu Yu glanced at the old emperor sitting on the steps.

Does the other side mean that both worlds exist within the same planet, so they should not be distinguished?

After thinking about it, I felt that the other party should not mean this.

"Surface creatures come to the underground, and underground creatures can go to the surface?!"

Chu Yu muttered this sentence repeatedly, and a cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back.

Since going down to the underworld, from the initial curiosity, to the search for a plausible truth, until now, he is most interested in freaks.

One freak isn't scary, and ten thousand aren't scary, but the problem is that there are no limits to it.

Infinite monsters, just ask if you are afraid?

Killing several of them is a stinking rascal.

According to Chu Yu's understanding, the deformed monsters have been fighting with the underground creatures, and there are more and more deformed monsters, maybe one day in the future, the deformed monsters will flood every corner of the underground world, and for other species, this is a battle that must be lost.

There is no way, the freak monster plays a hooligan, and several will pop up when they kill one.

At that point, the Freaks may be able to move up through the Ladder area, to the third level, to the second level, to the first level, and even, to the surface world!

Thinking of this terrible consequence, Chu Yu became more and more anxious to find the answer to all this.

Could it be that the old emperor meant this?

Glancing at the old emperor slightly, Chu Yu smiled: "You go on, about the exile of your ancestors. ”

"We gradually lost control of the land beneath our feet, and were divided into isolated fortresses by more and more monsters, and we had to build towering sea walls to hide in them, silently counting the countdown to the end of the world. ”

Dracula shrugged, "Self-inflicted." ”

The Flame Snake nodded in agreement.

Speaking of which, it is done by yourself, and it seems that population control is really necessary, otherwise the whole people will lose weight and reduce their food needs.

"If you eat the food that the corpse decomposes, you become a monster, and then the monster releases the virus and infects other people... Chu Yu asked puzzledly, "Isn't there an antidote?"

"In the beginning, not all intelligent races were restrained and gave up resistance, and of them ... Oh yes, at that time, it wasn't just our ancestors who evolved civilizations, many other species, invertebrates, amphibians, deep-sea creatures, etc., all evolved civilizations, and the Guardian you saw was one of them. ”

"Birdman?" The more Chu Yu listened, the more he felt that this matter was a bit.

According to the old emperor, all underground creatures exist on the surface, the Imperial people are, the birdmen are too, and what about the dwarfs and female savages, they too?

Dracula suddenly interjected and asked, "Did your ancestors look like you, or did some other species evolve into your own?"

"According to your surface humans, our ancestors evolved from the Titaalik fish. ”

"Titarik fish?" Chu Yu looked confused.

In Chu Yu's mind, there was a situation where a big yellow crocodile was crawling all over the ground.

Titaalik fish is also a predatory animal active in the Devonian period, this thing looks a bit like a crocodile, can grow up to more than two meters close to three meters, the appearance is basically similar to a crocodile, but the combat effectiveness is definitely better than that of a crocodile, there is a row of teeth for predation in the mouth, the head is flat, and the eyes are on the door of the head.

In addition to the eyes, the head of this species also has a stomatal structure, which is mainly used for breathing, and also has lungs with the same function as the gills, and in the Devonian period, the fins of the Titarik fish already had primitive carpal bones and simple phalanges, although these bones could not have the same walking function as today's quadrupeds, but they could still be used to support the body and move the body, and it has evolved the foot.

In fact, on the surface, some scientists have already proposed that humans are the direct descendants of the Titarik fish.

It's just that there is no scientific basis for this statement, of course, it is still the same sentence, there is no way to prove that this statement is correct, and there is no evidence to prove that this statement is wrong, it can only be said to be a hypothesis.

The flame snake glanced at Chu Yu and asked, "Titarik fish, this is a fish, right?"

Chu Yu nodded.

The flame snake laughed and said with a teasing expression: "Isn't it nonsense to evolve from a fish to a human. ”

Chu Yu pursed his lips without explaining too much.

No one can say anything about evolution, according to the needs of the environment, in order to survive, species evolved particularly wantonly, dinosaurs are an example, didn't they also evolve into chickens.

After the mass extinction of species, small creatures with strong adaptability still survived, including small dinosaurs, after a long evolutionary career, didn't they eventually become chickens, dinosaurs turned into chickens have a scientific basis, not to mention fish become humans, and how many billions of years have passed, what the old emperor said may not be a fantasy.

Dracula rolled her eyes: "Speaking of the antidote, I found that the underground race is easy to go astray when nagging. ”

Chu Yu: "Oh yes, after that, haven't you looked for an antidote?"

The old emperor didn't pay attention to the flame snake at all, but continued to look at Chu Yu and said, "Of course, some scientists have found a way to cure the disease from the living samples of infected people, that is, to use special radiation to mutate another chromosome. ”

Chu Yu suddenly realized that the people of the empire were not born with an extra chromosome than humans, but were acquired.

"But even if people don't get infected, but the monsters that have been infected, they will still hunt all creatures, and the only thing that can compete with monsters is the warrior who pilots the mecha, that is... ”

The old emperor paused, gently knocked on his head with his cane, and then said: "By the way, it's called the Deng fish, and the name of your surface humans is the Deng fish." ”

"Damn. Chu Yu said helplessly: "A huge Deng fish with a body like a bus?"

"Yes, the most powerful species, the most brave and warlike race, are the intelligent creatures that evolved from the Dunkle fish. ”

Chu Yu felt that evolution was really arbitrary.

Chu Yu, who had been making up prehistoric knowledge with Lao Zhao before, really knew about this creature, this creature that dominated the ocean.

Scholars on the surface of the earth used a computer to simulate the skull of the Dunkle fish, and found that this giant fish was calling for wind and rain in the prehistoric ocean.

The head muscles of this species are quite developed, and the coordination with the joints is excellent, and it can bite in an instant in fifties of a second, which is amazingly powerful, and the powerful suction force produced makes the prey only obediently wait for death, and the sharp teeth of the Dunkle fish are also its lethal weapons, and the bite of the teeth of this fish is the most ferocious sea creature known to man.

The moment the tooth closes, all the forces converge in a very small area at the tip of the tooth, which can generate up to 5,600 kilograms of biting force per square centimeter.

For example, when a woman of more than 60 kilograms steps on the surface of someone else's foot in a high-root shoe with a shoe root of 0.5 centimeters, the pressure generated is more than 120 kilograms per square centimeter.

However, the dunkle's fish lacks teeth in the real sense, and instead of long jagged blades twisted with each other, it can bite and crush almost any sea creature, and the dunkle's fish is not particular about its food, and it does not recognize its six relatives when it eats, it eats fish, chest sharks, and even its own relatives and kind, which is simply sad.

Chu Yu was curious.

This kind of creature like the overlord of the sea actually evolved an intelligent civilization in the Devonian, even if the body size changed according to the bad environment, it would definitely be a behemoth.

"Every bone on the scepter represents the intelligent race waiting for resurrection in the pit of oblivion, and the intelligent civilization that first put on the mecha is also among them. The old emperor looked at the scepter in his hand and continued: "In order to ensure that the flame of hope for civilization of all intelligent species continues to burn, they modified the infected pathogens and injected them into their bodies, so as to improve their abilities, scientists tailored mechanical exoskeleton armor for them, and with strong willpower, they survived, entered the mecha, and fought against a huge number of monsters. ”

Yan Snake gradually became fascinated by what he heard, and couldn't help asking, "Did you win?"

Dracula said helplessly: "Isn't this nonsense, if they win, can they come to the underworld, of course, if what he says is the truth." ”

The old emperor smiled bitterly: "This is a history that can be sung and cried, just like that, our ancestors are extinct, and when our race has wisdom again, it already exists in the underground world, and there are no monsters in the underground world, but there are, like a nightmare, a nightmare that follows from the surface to the underground, a nightmare that will never stop." ”

Chu Yu was confused: "When you have spiritual wisdom again, you came to the underground world? What does this mean, you didn't come to the underground by yourself, or someone else sent you here?"

"We are resurrected in the pit of oblivion, and like you, no one has witnessed this history, only records. ”

Dracula smiled: "You just said that history that no one has witnessed is not history, and if it is not history, the record is unrealistic." ”

"If it were you, would you rewrite the origins of your ancestors?"

Dracula was a real man and shook his head slightly.

Origin is different from history, the latter can be changed casually, it doesn't matter, but the former represents too many things.

The record of the origin is passed down from generation to generation by the people of the empire, but at which link or stage some of the information is lost, but the general direction and content should not be wrong.

Chu Yu asked inexplicably: "That means that you don't know why you were banished to the ground?"

"None of this matters anymore. ”

Chu Yu took a deep breath: "It's important to me!"

"Important to you?" The old emperor's face was inexplicable, and after being silent for a long time, he said faintly: "If you want to find an answer, perhaps, you should go to the eighth layer." ”

"Eighth layer?" Chu Yu asked puzzledly, "Why can you be sure that the answer is on the eighth layer." ”

"Freaks. The old emperor's voice was full of exhaustion: "The record of history is limited, when the empire lasted for fifty-four generations, the pioneer once explored the seventh layer, and in the depths of the seventh layer, he encountered an accident and uploaded the information he obtained to the sky before he died. ”

"Wait. Chu Yu interrupted: "Upload to the sky... There's only bedrock in the sky, and there's no sky?"

"Bedrock?" The old emperor smiled slightly: "Okay, what you call the bedrock is our sky, and the bedrock is some kind of storage device, storing souls, information, resources, everything, the bedrock blocks different worlds and regions, blocks different ecological environments, deformed monsters, intelligent species, everything, everything is related to the bedrock." ”

Chu Yu looked confused.

Bedrock, actually a storage device?

Suddenly, Chu Yu suddenly remembered that when he went down to the underground world, those pillars near the Heavenly Ladder area, the last pillar that looked like a storage device, looked very similar to the appearance of the Heavenly Bedrock.

Everything in the earth is related to the bedrock, what does this mean?
