Chapter 53: Dreams

Guo Sen saw a strange picture.

Beyond the cave exit is the interior of a completely dormant crater.

The star's light shines through the vast opening in the vast opening of the hot magma that had erupted in ancient times, and shines on countless ferns of all shapes and sizes.

They are bathed in light and grow unbridled, forming an extremely large jungle.

In the jungle, there are countless mirror-like lakes formed by water gushing out of the ground, and there are even underground rivers gushing out of the ground, connecting the lakes and flowing slowly.

The cries of all kinds of wonderful and novel animals rose one after another in the forest, and Guo Sen saw that there were tens of thousands of dinosaurs and all kinds of strange-looking creatures living here.

In this isolated paradise, the flora and fauna have not been affected by the changes of the outside environment, and have maintained their ancient appearance, trying to survive and continue to thrive until now.

Guo Sen suddenly remembered that he had heard that a unique ecosystem would be formed in this relatively closed environment before, but he didn't expect this situation to appear on his sphere.

He looked at the cave again, and saw that it looked like a den of these dinosaurs, with a lot of branches and stuff in it.

I'm afraid that after those dwarves dug the ore to a depth of that large space, the noise they made made made these dinosaurs notice, and they also went all the way down, smelled the dwarves, and finally got an unexpected meal.

It was estimated that the same was true this time, and the greedy dwarves moved even more, causing these dinosaurs to take another adventure and reap the rich results.

Having lost one-fifth of the population, and even the leader was killed, this dwarven tribe must have been shrouded in the shadow of dinosaurs for a long time, and did not dare to go down to the mine again, right?

However, you can't think too absolutely.

Guo Sen decided that before he could take a good look at the small world in this crater, he had to deal with the affairs of the dwarves first.

Let them stop the idea of digging the Flame Stone here, and go hunting or find their own fruit to dig roots, smelt metal, etc., and do some business.

Don't just think about digging gems and trading food with the sheep tribe every day.

This kind of somewhat deformed transaction is not what Guo Sen wants to see.

Think of these dwarves' compatriots on another land, who are the normal development of civilization.

The trade in goods is indeed quite advanced, but it appeared too early, and it is really abnormal.

His gaze came to the underground tunnels of the cavern.

After checking and confirming that no living dwarves still existed in the entire mining cave, he had a quick idea to block countless extremely hard boulders at the entrance to the dwarven cave, completely sealing the tunnel to the underground space.

In this way, they will not be able to do it even if they dare to come over.

Unless, they have more advanced smelting skills, and with the obsession of becoming too much, they can knock open all the rocks in the vicinity, and find the flame stone that already has a very small presence in the rock formation.

When that happens, what awaits them may be endless despair, right?

Of course, there is also a reason to protect the small ecosystem that exists in the crater.

Guo Sen didn't know how long this easily destroyed ecosystem would last, but in a short period of time, Guo Sen wanted to see if the animals and plants that tenaciously survived in it would produce any new evolution.

He had missed a long time before and had not observed how the lizardmen, the white wolf people, and the dwarves and sheep had evolved from animals to humans.

But now that he has such a closed ecosystem, maybe it's not impossible for him to really observe.

After Guo Sen finished the work of completely sealing the cave, he looked at the dwarf clan again, only to find that these guys had completely abandoned the cave where they lived before, and actually migrated en masse.

This is something to be expected.

He thought that these dwarves would still live in this place and slowly recuperate.

But if you think about it, this is indeed a reasonable and inevitable choice.

After this descent, they lost more than sixty people, most of whom were still in the prime of life, including the leaders of the tribe.

All the lamps, metal pickaxes, and jerky were all buried in the ground, and even if Guo Sen hadn't blocked the hole, they would never dare to go down to look for it, after all, there were still three terrifying monsters waiting underneath.

With no food and no tools to continue mining the gems, the dwarves must find new habitats and worry about food tonight.

Guo Sen didn't expect those dinosaurs to force these dwarves to such a point, but the development of things would inevitably lead to such a result.

Of course, if the dwarves start a new tribe and start to prosper again, this disaster will be a good thing.

But if they fall into a state of collapse, are completely unable to adapt to the sudden change of life, or even end up as a passerby in the age of civilization, it only proves that they cannot adapt to the world.

Again, if it weren't for this disaster, they would probably have continued to follow in the footsteps of the sheep after they lost interest in gemstones.

No world adapts to man, but only man adapts to the world.

The weaker will have more chances of survival, and the weaker, or like these dwarves, will rely entirely on the sheep race for food, if they don't want to think about change, they will eventually die out completely, become an outcast of civilization, and be wiped out in the torrent of time.

The dwarves were lucky, and after a long day's journey, they did not encounter any danger, and finally came to a stop near a valley with a slow flowing river, and Guo Sen was slightly relieved to see them begin to pick the fruits of the vicinity.

The area is a little drier, the food is not much, and the soil is poorer, but relatively safe.

Guo Sen had also noticed before that there were a number of creatures similar to tigers and leopards around the sheep tribe, which seemed to be chasing and hunting other animals. And that kind of carnivore, which also used to be in the area where the dwarven tribe was before.

But after arriving in this river valley, Guo Sen did not find any trace of them, and it is estimated that there are not too many herbivores in this area.

The dwarves also had a few metal pickaxes left in their hands, and the men began to dig through the mountains of the valley tens of meters high. The women and children, on the other hand, were preoccupied with picking fruits, and some dared to go down into the water, as if to find some fish to eat.

Seeing that the dwarven tribe had settled, Guo Sen was completely relieved, at least they hadn't completely forgotten how to live.

The future is for the strong, as long as they haven't forgotten what it means to be strong.
