Chapter 969: Monsters and Hunters
Located at the junction of the Galactic Empire and the Chaos Star Domain, Chihua Star nominally belongs to the Galactic Empire, but the true scenery of the Galactic Empire is not visible here.
As the planet closest to the Chaos Star Field, it is known as the harbor of the Chaos Star Field, but it does not see the most primitive chaos.
All in all, this is actually a very ordinary planet except for its geographical location. It has only two roles with Luo Zhi, one is to let Luo Zhi see the plasma ore with his own eyes, and the other is to provide a star map of the chaotic star field.
A watch-like thing with a fingernail-sized inlay of plasma ore that glows faintly and is thirty percent pure.
This ore is both an energy source and a gorgeous decoration.
Turning the switch of the watch, it automatically projected a nearby star map, and marked Luo Zhi's location.
Through gesture control, this star map can be continuously reduced, and eventually the entire chaotic star field will be revealed.
Luo Zhi shrank directly to the minimum, so the entire chaotic star field was presented in front of his eyes.
The entire star field is divided into three layers, which are marked with different colors.
The outermost circle is white and represents the safe zone, meaning that there is no radiation in this area and it is safe to enter.
The circle in the middle is orange and red, which represents the danger zone, and the redder the color, the more dangerous it is. Not only is there radiation in this area, but there are also terrifying plasma monsters.
The innermost circle is black, representing the forbidden land. It means that there is the most terrible radiation in it, and it will kill you if you touch it. This area is about the size of fifty or sixty thousand star systems.
"Millions of years ago, the forbidden land was three billion star systems, but now there are only fifty or sixty thousand star systems...... Sure enough, time is the most terrifying force in the world, and the once terrifying radiation is now being solved by the plasma monster in the passage of time. What was once a terrifying forbidden land is now nine out of ten of its territory, and it has become a chaotic star field! ”
Luo Zhi jumped into the void, and left Chihua Star in an instant, and then flashed in space repeatedly, and in a short time, he was already far away from Chihua Star.
In the dark universe, there is no trace of other civilizations.
At this time, Luo Zhifang took out the Nine Dragons Agarwood Wheel he had obtained before, sat on it, drove nine five-clawed golden dragons, and ran towards his destination.
Although in such an interstellar era, it is a bit inconsistent to ride the agarwood chariot pulled by nine golden dragons, it is impossible for Luo Zhi to fly to the destination by himself.
That's all there is to it.
"Who would have thought that millions of years ago, this place was filled with radiation that would kill nine out of ten of life?"
Running in space, Luo Zhi couldn't help but recall the memories he got from other people's minds.
Millions of years ago, the emergence of new energy plasma ore set off a wave of new technology, which promoted the generation of a large number of new technologies and swept the hundreds of empires of the galactic coefficient.
At the same time, countless careerists were born.
Soon after, the war broke out again, and it happened endlessly, with hundreds of nations clash and expand within the galaxy.
All careerists shout stronger weapons, more speed, but this requires better energy.
Thirty percent purity, forty percent plasma ore can no longer satisfy them, they want to get eighty percent, one hundred percent purity plasma ore!
But that's impossible, the high-purity ores are all in the depths of the forbidden land, where there is terrible radiation, and even high-tech drones will produce material changes under the radiation.
Not a single drone can come back with radiation of that intensity.
As a result, solving the problem of radiation has become the biggest problem facing countless careerists.
But this problem has lasted for millions of years.
But in the end, it is not the careerists who will solve the radiation problem, but time and nature.
To be precise, the lives that survive the radiation.
Although radiation is terrible, nine out of ten lives die when touched, but there are still 0.10 percent of lives that survive after being exposed to radiation.
Even if the probability of survival of a civilization of three billion star systems is only 1 in 100, the life that survives in the end is still more than 100 million trillions.
However, they are not lucky, because the probability of survival is 0.10%, and the probability of staying sane under radiation is also zero. All the survivors lost their minds and became crazy beasts.
Their lifespans are also different, some live for a few days, some live for decades.
But even if you lose your mind, even if your body is distorted, even if your life span is greatly shortened, you still have the most basic desire for life.
Stay alive.
Life will eventually find its own way out, even in the radiation of despair.
These surviving beings eventually successfully adapted to radiation, and then took different paths over millions of years of adaptation and evolution.
The most powerful of these beings have evolved the ability to consume radiation.
They will continue to absorb radiation through their bodies, so as to gain strength, and have more size and strength, becoming terrifying plasma monsters with a minimum height of several hundred meters.
High-purity plasma ore that emits radiation itself is the favorite food of these monsters, but they don't need the energy contained in the ore and ore, and after absorbing all the radiation, these ores and energy will be directly excreted from the body, condensed somewhere on the surface of the body, and once again become high-purity plasma ore.
However, this ore is no longer radiation.
At the same time, because the monsters only eat the ore with radiation, the plasma ore condensed on their bodies is at least 50% pure.
800,000 years ago, there were only more than 20 countries left in the galaxy, and these countries were paying close attention to the forbidden land, and through various means, it was easy to find the reduction of radiation intensity, as well as the plasma monster.
The high-purity plasma ore on the monster attracted their attention. Although all of these monsters live in areas of high levels of radiation, that doesn't stop them from getting their hands on the ore.
They use means to stimulate or lure the plasma monsters to leave the high-intensity radiation area and come to the low-intensity radiation area or a safe area, and then directly attack and capture the plasma monsters, obtain the pure plasma ore on their bodies, and then release all these monsters.
After the civil forces learned about it, they also followed suit, but the height of the plasma monster of several hundred meters was not false, and it also mastered the means of using the undigested radiation in the body.
The big forces are okay, but those small forces are often unable to deal with these plasma monsters that they attract, and they suffer heavy losses.
After a few times, these small forces can only pay for the help of those races with special abilities.
From this as a starting point, a class specializing in dealing with plasma monsters was gradually derived - hunter.
