Chapter 517: Roaming the Yellow Star
On the way back, everyone was not in a hurry, but watched the scenery of Yan Huangxing all the way, and even killed a group of spirit birds that were intercepted halfway.
It wasn't until dark that he returned to the base and settled everyone in.
At nightfall, the Golden Moon Star rises into the night sky, and it looks much larger than the Moon, and it is a beautiful brownish color.
Ye Quan only slept for three hours before he woke up and saw that Zhao Xueqin was sleeping soundly and did not alarm her.
At this time, there are already two moons in the sky, and the remaining three moons will not appear for a while, and the night of the Yellow Star is very long.
In the middle of the night, the sky of May, almost as day, is also one of the greatest wonders of Yanhuang Star.
The night of the Yellow Star is not dark, there is at least one moon shining in the night sky, and there are countless strange creatures that can glow, some are animals, some are plants.
Therefore, before dawn, the reinforcements brought by Ye Quan formed their own teams, and some went to hunt spirit beasts and collect spiritual crystal nuclei; Some went to pick exotic flowers and plants, spiritual fruits and elixirs; There are also people like Zhao Xueqin and Long Keer, who come purely to satisfy their curiosity.
Of course, according to the agreement before coming, when the base is in need, a mission will be issued to them to assist the Black Dragon Army in exploring the planet.
There is a spirit animal called the "leopard horse" near the base, which has a fierce and brave temperament, likes to live in groups, and roams the great plains in groups of 20 to 50 individuals.
This spirit beast has a head like a leopard, a body like a horse, and is covered in scale armor, slightly larger than a horse, feeds on meat, and is quite strong in combat.
The four-legged leopard horse is not hoof-shaped, but cat-like claws, capable of climbing difficult terrain, running extremely fast, and reaching four to five levels of strength in adulthood.
Because the airspace of Yanhuang Star is too dangerous, land transportation is blank. Ye Quan felt that this creature was very suitable for ordinary Black Dragon Army warriors, so he found a few leopard horse groups and domesticated them.
With the leopard horse as a mount, the soldiers were able to travel faster and go further.
In addition to transportation, leopard horses can also play a role of vigilance and auxiliary combat.
The eighth-order spirit beast that looked like a deer and a horse was able to fly through the sky. It was named "Flying Deer".
The speed of the flying deer is extremely fast, like lightning, and it also has amazing intuition, Liu Qingqing and Dongxiao Zhenren shot once, but they couldn't capture it alive.
Fortunately, the wisdom of this spirit beast is not low, and it feeds on spirit fruit elixir, so it is not too threatening to humans, and its appearance is likable, so in the end, the base tolerated this spirit beast within the safety range of the base.
Rely on mental power. Spirit beasts below the seventh order, Ye Quan can be tamed directly.
Seventh-order spirit beasts can also communicate through communication, or defeat first and then submit, only eighth-order and ninth-order spirit beasts need to be paid attention to.
On the 9th day of Yanhuangxing, there was great news!
Yan Chuan, the deputy chief instructor of the Dragon Group, broke through the S-rank after a battle.
Yan Chuan is a rare three-line ability, and there are three abilities: gold, magnetic field, and physical strengthening. Both are powerful combat abilities, and Yan Chuan is at A-rank. Almost invincible at the same level. After he broke through the S-rank, he would immediately be among the most powerful S-rank powerhouses.
Following Si Ling, Nie Jiuwen and Ye Quan, the Dragon Group has added another general, with seven S-level powerhouses, which are not weaker than the Pure Land Alliance before the split, and they have also completely secured the throne of the world's largest ability organization.
Yanchuan has undergone a simple test. did not disappoint everyone, his current strength can be called terrifying, able to interfere with the earth's magnetic field, cancel gravity, and achieve supersonic flight in the flesh; It is capable of creating a protective barrier against magnetic fields. Block all attacks; Ability to perceive and control the electromagnetic spectrum in the surrounding area; He even manipulates the iron element in the human body to make life worse than death.
On the 11th day after that, Long Ke'er broke through the B level, and in order to reward the apprentice, Ye Quan gave her his shadowless needle.
In fact, after coming to Yanhuang Star, by absorbing the aura and the spirit beast crystal nucleus, both the supernatural and the martial artist could feel that they were making significant progress.
Ye Quan has a spiritual energy space, and he doesn't think that the others are simply surprised.
In the Great Plains, where the base is located, some herds of beasts will form a large migration during the seasonal exchange, and the number of some herds will even reach hundreds of thousands, so in order to prevent the attack of the beast tide, a wall must be built around the perimeter of the base.
Because the newly established cement plant produced little and needed a lot of places, only a quarter of the defensive perimeter of the base was built at this time, and many places were damaged during the last dragon attack.
Ye Quan simply exerted the magic power of "turning mud into stone", and by manipulating the molecular structure of the soil, he built a stone wall 40 kilometers long, 300 meters high and 30 meters thick around the base, which was several times stronger than reinforced concrete in terms of solidity.
That's not all, in order to enhance the toughness of the wall, Ye Quan also asked Yan Chuan to build steel bars inside the stone wall, and poured a layer of armored alloy steel on the outside of the stone wall, which is definitely impregnable and can resist the attack of spirit beasts below the eighth order.
With Yanchuan's S-class metal control ability, it can fuse all kinds of metals, including unrefined ores, into any shape in proportion.
It's a pity that the white tiger didn't come, otherwise a great wall of steel could be built directly.
The walls are covered with all kinds of automated defense weapons, and with such a defense system, the security of the entire base will be greatly improved.
……
According to Earth time, 20 days after coming to Yanhuang Star, the 40-kilometer-long base wall was basically completed, and all that remained was the erection of various defensive weapons.
The powerful spirit beasts within a radius of two thousand miles were either driven away by Liu Qingqing and others, or were killed, and the ground base was finally as stable as Mount Tai.
Ye Quan decided to leave, he was here to make a comprehensive tour and inspect the entire Yanhuang Star, not just to protect the base.
This inspection was also a novel trip, Ye Quan chose a direction and set off in the "Aurora" spaceship, taking only Zhao Xueqin alone.
The largest forest on the Jizhou continent occupies more than half of the entire continent.
In the center of the forest, 16,000 kilometers away from the base, stands a giant tree that is more than 30,000 meters high, the largest plant on the planet discovered by a space satellite.
Its trunk is as thick as a mountain peak, its branches are like mountains, its crown covers a 200-kilometer area, and its foliage is larger than a football field.
The trees are layered on top of each other, forming countless bizarre spaces.
Trees, flowers, and a variety of animals grow on the broad branches, and the tops of the trees are clouded with mist, sometimes turning into raindrops, forming lakes, rivers, and waterfalls between the branches.
A single tree forms a unique and complete biosphere, and the vast majority of animals live on this giant tree all their lives, where they are born, grow, hunt and die.
This is the true "World Tree".
Once the World Tree exchanged by Yequan Swap blossoms and bears fruit, after entering the maturity stage, its growth rate will slow down, and eventually it will grow to a height of five or six thousand meters.
This giant tree is named after the sacred tree in ancient Chinese mythology, and Ye Quan named it "Jianmu Sacred Tree".
Ye Quan parked the spaceship on a tree branch and stayed here for a few days to explore the various mysteries of the giant tree.
The more they explored, the more they were amazed by Ye Quan and Zhao Xueqin, everything here was so incredible.
With reverence for nature, Ye Quan knew that this magical tree was a spiritual plant of more than eight grades, and the spiritual energy contained in its wood heart crystals was incomparably huge, comparable to dozens of ninth-order spirit beasts, but he did not have any covetous hearts.
However, the tallest plant on the Yanhuang Star is not this Jianmu Divine Tree, but a plant called "Tongtian Vine".
This plant does not grow stout, and the thickest main vine is only a few tens of meters in diameter.
Completely ignoring the influence of gravity, the vines stretch all the way to the sky, and the tallest vine is 100,000 meters high!
This is exactly the "fairy bean vine" planted by Jack in the Western fable, which can go straight to the sky.
The vine is not only tall, but also extremely aggressive, and there are slender "tentacles" growing between each of its rattan nodes, and any bird passing through the airspace where the vine is located will not escape the poisonous hand.
The tenacity of the vines was beyond Ye Quan's cognition, and with his strength, he couldn't cut the vines.
Aggressive plants are not only abundant in species, but also widely distributed on the Yellow Star, and there is a plant called "Bloodthirsty Vine", which is even more mobile and wanders around.
Bloodthirsty vines have roots, but they do not take root in the soil to absorb nutrients, but live by preying on animals.
Once hungry, the bloodthirsty vines will roll into a ball and shake the tenacious vines to roll forward, traveling at speeds of up to more than 10 meters per second.
When encountering large animals, more than a dozen vines several meters long will bind the prey tightly, and the thorns on the vines will release a biological enzyme that can dissolve the flesh, and then the bloodthirsty vines will pierce the animal's body with needle-like roots and whiskers to suck the flesh and blood.
The complete opposite of the bloodthirsty vine is a newly discovered creature, which Ye Quan calls "Wood Beast".
This creature has eyes and mouths, but it does not have a uniform appearance, some look like bears, some look like turtles, and even some look like people, with very distinct limbs and facial features.
Timberbeasts reproduce by dividing and have a layer of green moss growing on their bodies.
This moss has a symbiotic relationship with the wood beast, and has a super ability to absorb sunlight energy, and the wood beast uses sunlight energy to transform to sustain life.
Wood beasts are peaceful by nature, dormant all year round, as if hibernating, and have an extremely narrow range of activity.
Despite having fangs and a sharp mouth, the wood beast rarely eats, and does not eat anything other than spirit fruits and elixirs.
Although the wood beast is not too threatening, once provoked, the speed is never slow, and the regeneration ability is also extremely strong, and the strength is very strong, the space reconnaissance system has observed a wood beast, and it can easily defeat a sixth-order spirit beast.
The discovery of two creatures, the bloodthirsty vine and the wood beast, has almost broken the boundaries between animals and plants, and many biologists have almost collapsed.
One is animal-like, but it attracts sunlight and is motionless 99% of the day, just like wood and stones; One is the appearance of a plant, but it is extremely mobile and only devours flesh, which has little in common with the characteristics of plants. (To be continued.) )
