Chapter 618: Think long-term
Yuan Dou was persuaded by the two, so the three of them took the shuttle again and began to search for the abyss of filth. Sitting on the shuttle, the three of them traveled quickly across the continent. The size of the continent is beyond imagination, but with the help of the shuttle, they still found a similar place with intelligent life activities.
This continent is larger than all the continents on Earth combined, and it is a whole, which by the calculation of small silver, occupies about a quarter of the surface area of the planet. According to the direction, Xiao Yin divided the continent into four parts. To the south, all the way to the south pole of the planet, there is a world of ice and snow, and after a cursory observation, no intelligent life has been found there. The northernmost and farthest reaches the equator, where there is a desert, and the energy of the two stars is so amazing that there is not even any living creature on the yellow sand, of course it is only daytime. To the east, there is a huge swamp, the overall color is black, even the plants are black. It was also the closest thing to the Abyss of Filth, but the trio weren't prepared to go there. To the west was a forest, in which the Hill People were located, near the swamp. In the depths of the forest, they found something that resembled a city, and they planned to go there.
Four continents, bordered by forests and marshes, with the largest area of permafrost plus glaciers in the south, followed by forests. Next are the swampy terrain and the smallest is the desert. The path on which Yuan Dou's spaceship landed was in the northern hemisphere, and they arrived here through the edge of the desert. This time, they explored the entire continent, and it can be said that they already have a rough map of this continent, which will be of great help for the next operation.
Yuan Dou and the three of them came to the top of the forest, and from the sky, it looked like there was a huge city on the ground, but when the three of them landed, they found that the city was formed by plants. Trees are walls, trees are houses, trees make up everything in the city, and there are many sparkling things wandering back and forth, like a crowd of aimless shopping.
The three of them hid outside the walls of the trees and watched from afar, and those glowing creatures were like souls floating in the air, souls in human form. This type of creature is unheard of, and it is even unknown whether they are considered creatures or not. However, at this time, Xiaoyin gave the answer, and it called this kind of life energy life. The energy on this planet is very abundant, and fresh water is very rich in energy, and it is understandable that the creatures that produce this energy. Unlike carbon-based and silicon-based organisms, their bodies are made up of pure energy, and even more so are different from the energy that is formed, and they are also divided into many types. The entropy of the universe is constantly increasing, and the entropy of living beings is decreasing in a sense, and the same is true for energy creatures, and because they are formed by pure energy, in the eyes of special races, energy creatures are a kind of low-level perpetual motion machines. Of course, in most cases, energy creatures act like energy batteries, and are very efficient in terms of energy supply. Therefore, in the universe, energy creatures are very rare and very special. However, that kind of situation generally appears in energy creatures without intelligence, and the energy creatures in front of Yuan Dou and a few people can even form cities, which no longer applies to them. However, aliens with ulterior motives, or evil and cruel, may consider them treasures.
Yuan Dou looked at the energy creatures in the distance, and didn't know what to do for a while. "What to do, how are we going to communicate with them, can they talk?" All three of them were new to this kind of creature, and they had lost their minds for a while. Yuan Dou looked at the two who were silent, stood up and prepared to get straight to the point, but Lian Yan stopped him and asked him to think about it in the long run. In other words, I didn't understand the word Yuandou from the long term, "What does it mean, you just say it, what do you want me to do!" ”
"Think about the last time we came into contact with the Hill People," Lian Yan said, "should we do it another way?" ”
"Don't beat around the bush, just tell me the way directly."
Lian Yan hesitated, whispered her thoughts, and listened to Yuan Dou's eyes light up. The three of them discussed for a long time, and finally found a practical solution, and then the three of them left the tree where they were hiding.
Three days later, on a small hillside not far from the Energy Creature City, the three of them hid on the back slope and looked into the distance. There is a lonely energy creature there, it is like a child walking into the forest alone, there is no sense of crisis at all, and it is full of curiosity. The three of them had been staring at it for a long time, and this was the first one they had seen in three days.
"Well, when are we going to make contact?" Yuan Dou asked.
"Wait, maybe there will be a scene of drawing a knife to help," Lian Yan said, "I remember there was a group of upright snakes nearby." "An erect snake is an animal with a scaly body that looks like a four-legged snake, but walks upright on both feet. This erect snake is aggressive, and when it encounters its prey, it bounces up with its thick hind limbs to attack its prey with a swift attack close to the speed of sound, and then swallows its prey in one gulp with a bloody mouth that opens to the back of its head, and swallows it without chewing. Homo erectus is the name that Lian Yan gave them, they first encountered a group, of course, they did not pose a threat to them, but that kind of monkey anxious personality made them interested in this kind of erect snake. Homo erectus snakes that encounter their prey will attack quickly, without even a second of reaction time. One second it was spotted, and the next it had rushed over and opened its bloody mouth. It is a very disgusting creature, and it is deeply disgusted by Lian Yan.
Mototo looked into the distance, his gaze through the layers of leaves, and saw the erect snake that was lazily walking. There were about three of them, and they were approaching the place where the energy creatures were frolicking. Erectus snakes come in groups of three or five, and their predation does not have the artistry of a wolf pack, that is, they simply rush up, and whoever grabs it is whoever. Due to the speed at which they attacked, Yuan Dou was the size of Lian Yan and Ye Xi. If the Homo erectus attacks, they must act at the same time in order to save the energy creature. Based on this, they will be able to connect with energy creatures, which is their initial goal.
"Ready, the two sides are already close, and soon the situation of meeting will come." Yuan Dou said.
"yes, got it."
The energy creature walked downstream of the stream, pausing two meters in one step and moving forward at a very slow pace. The erect serpent was going up the stream, about to meet the energy creatures. The stream also has trees, and the trees are about two meters away from the stream, and the energy creatures walk on the shore like this, stopping by the trees from time to time. Seeing that the time was ripe, Yuan Dou reminded Lian Yan and Ye Xi that the three of them were speeding close to the stream, ready to burst out at the highest speed at any time.
