Chapter 145, huge
On the starry sky continent in the Turku galaxy, a series of figures flashed directly from space and landed into this huge and vast world, and there were also spaceships constantly skimming over the starry sky continent, and various probes began to conduct detailed explorations of the entire starry sky continent and draw detailed maps.
"It's so vast, if you live on this continent, you will definitely think that you are really the center of the universe!"
On a high altitude in the Starry Sky Continent, Tang Boyuan overlooked the earth under his feet, and couldn't see the end at a glance, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, the surface area of a planet is only a few hundred million square kilometers, and the larger life planets are billions of square kilometers at most, but the huge Starry Sky Continent in front of him has an area of hundreds of billions of square kilometers, which is hundreds of thousands of times the surface area of a life planet.
And this is just one face, there are 6 faces in the entire Star Sky Continent, even if only the two largest surfaces are calculated, its area is more than 200 trillion square kilometers, which is equivalent to the surface area of hundreds of thousands of life planets.
It is conceivable how vast this starry sky continent is, a person standing on a living planet will feel extremely small, when he is in such a vast starry sky continent, it can no longer be described as small.
When you really get into it, you will find that this lake is many times larger than the Pacific Ocean above the Earth, and such small lakes are everywhere on the Starry Sky Continent.
It can no longer be called a lake, but a vast ocean, in which the wind and waves can easily exceed 100 meters, and the hurricanes on the ocean can reach 20 at will, and the amount of water swept up by a tornado is enough to submerge a large city.
A mountain peak on the Starry Sky Continent that does not look too high, its height can reach a height of tens of thousands of meters, the bottom may be a dense tropical jungle, then up is the temperate forest, and then up is the alpine snow, until a snow-covered peak, surrounded by smoke and clouds, like a fairyland.
Everything on the Starry Sky Continent is very vast, there is a truly vast and boundless grassland, and the animals on it may not be able to get out of this huge grassland for a lifetime; Here is the widest of plains, as far as the eye can see, in which countless lives inhabit freelance occupations; There are also the most turbulent rivers and the largest oceans, and they are even wider than those on Earth.
"The vitality is still very abundant!"
Dong Zhifei closed his eyes, carefully felt the vitality on the Starry Sky Continent, opened his eyes and said with a smile.
"No wonder Huoyun ~ Qiu Yue said that our empire is going to get rich this time, such a vast starry sky continent, this is definitely the most precious wealth, and I don't know how these starry sky giant beasts were built, and how long it took to build this huge starry sky continent."
Tang Boyuan nodded, although there is a lot of bad weather in the Starry Sky Continent, and many areas do not seem to be very friendly to humans, but most of the areas are still quite good, very suitable for human habitation, just calculate, the population that can be inhabited in the entire Starry Sky Continent is very large.
In a space battleship located in space, Long Shaofei looked at the virtual image, which was playing a map of the Starry Sky Continent and various materials.
As the probe continued to penetrate into the Starry Sky Continent, all the information about the Starry Sky Continent began to gather here, and the understanding of the Starry Sky Continent became deeper and deeper.
"The starry sky continent is very close to the core star, only 0.8 astronomical units, almost 90 million kilometers, and both sides can receive the light of the star, and the light level is basically about the same."
"From the perspective of light, the region closest to the star, with abundant light and high temperatures, forms a tropical climate, and the farther away from the star, the lower the angle of illumination, the less energy it receives, and the climate gradually becomes colder."
"However, because there is no autobiography, the light exists 24 hours a day, so the entire Star Continent is still quite warm as a whole, and the overall climate and environment are in the temperate and subtropical range."
The virtual image is simulating the relationship between the starry sky continent and the stars in the Turku galaxy, and the climate division on the starry sky continent is delineated.
"There are a large number of lakes on the Starry Sky Continent, which can be said to be dotted, and the largest lake covers an area of more than 500 billion square kilometers, which is thousands of times the surface area of the earth."
"Each lake is a huge climate regulator, and around these huge lakes there are huge areas with unique climates."
"The highest peaks above Starry Sky Continent A and B are more than 100,000 meters, reaching into the sky, according to the traces, this should still be artificially shortened by the Starry Sky Giant Beast, in fact, there should be a long section above."
"The species are extremely rich, and now almost all the creatures of the order and genus in the imperial biological database have been found, and there are even some of them that are specially captive creatures of the starry sky giant beasts, which are huge in size, and the largest can reach tens of thousands of tons, which are obviously used as food in captivity."
All kinds of data are constantly converging, although the starry sky giant beasts have intelligence, but their size is too large, plus they have strong own strength, so they have not actually formed any civilization, but only exist in the form of a simple race.
Of course, this also has a lot to do with the number of starry sky monsters, the starry sky monsters remind that they are too huge, and the energy that each starry sky monster needs to consume every day is very huge.
In addition to constantly going out to hunt and obtain creatures, the many creatures on the starry sky giant beast are also an important source of food for the starry sky giant beast, the huge ocean, the vast land of all kinds of large creatures are very many, of course, no matter how large the creature is, there is no way to compare with the starry sky beast.
The output of the entire huge starry sky continent itself is not much, and the number of the Turku starry sky giant beasts that occupy this place is actually very small, no more than 10,000, and this is already a strong race in the entire Cancer River system, and some of the sparse races may only have a few hundred.
There are not many starry sky giant beasts that can exceed 10,000 in the entire Cancer River system, some are powerful races in the entire river system, and some are the kind of people that rely on numbers to survive, and they are the food of other starry sky giant beasts.
The construction of a starry sky continent often requires hollowing out a prosperous and huge star field, and in the entire Cancer River system, there are only a few hundred races with the starry sky continent, each of which occupies a large vast star field, and the core of this star field is the starry sky continent they built, and there are some areas within the range that have the existence of life planets.
Around these living planets, there are also some relatively small starry sky monsters that live, forming groups, and these groups are often the food of the larger starry sky beasts.
The low-level, small-scale starry sky monsters feed on the creatures on the living planet, forming a complete food chain, at the top are the Turku tribe, the Talr tribe and other large and powerful attack groups, and at the low end of the food chain are small and large groups such as purple shrimp and blackbacks.
Of course, in general, because the size of the starry sky giant beasts is too large, the energy consumed is too much, and the growth is relatively slow, the total number of starry sky giant beasts in the entire river system is actually very small, and there is no way to be like the number of human beings, how many or hundreds of millions are at every turn.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that the starry sky monsters themselves do not really develop civilization, these intelligent starry sky monsters themselves do not know how to use scientific and technological means to develop themselves, if it is for human beings to operate and develop, in terms of the resources of a huge river system, as long as it is well managed, it is enough to make the number of starry sky monsters explode exponentially.
This is like in ancient times, human civilization was still very primitive, but knew hunting and gathering, and did not captivate animals and plants, so the number of human beings has always been very small, it is difficult to form large tribes, and the more the population, the larger the territory is needed to be able to feed.
As the territory grows, gathering and hunting become more difficult, and the population of a tribe is capped, and the population is so large that either some of the people die because they don't have enough food for themselves, or some of the people begin to migrate farther away.
It is only when human beings slowly explore captive animals and plant plants that human food access becomes more stable and sufficient, and the number of human beings begins to surge, and every leap in productivity is accompanied by a large-scale increase in population, and the reason is the same.
The starry sky giants now understand this truth, there are a lot of animals in captivity on the starry sky continent, and there are also a lot of plants, which is equivalent to learning to be captive and planted, but their size is too large, and the daily energy consumption is too large, so the very primary productivity is not enough to make the number of starry sky monsters show explosive growth.
"It's not difficult to occupy the entire river system, and it's easy to kill all these starry sky beasts, but these starry sky beasts still have a lot of value, at least it's quite a good labor force, if you can subdue these starry sky beasts for the empire's use, the future empire will be easy and simple when building a lot of things."
"Just for building the Starry Sky Continent, these Starry Sky Behemoths are a very good labor force, otherwise it would be impossible to build such a huge Starry Sky Continent."
"Well, it looks like we can have a good talk with some starry sky beasts!"
Long Shaofei carefully thought about the development route of the empire here.
