Chapter 15: The Blue Comet

A young galaxy with a bright star in the middle has just taken shape, and the surrounding galaxy dust is still spinning at high speed, and it won't take hundreds of millions of years for the first planet to be born.

A blue comet flew in the distance, threw a sapphire on its body into it, and without much attention, took a parabola, and left.

The sapphire will serve as the core of a planet that will be permanently present in this nascent star system.

In the blink of an eye, more than a billion years have passed.

The young star already has five planets to accompany it, and the third planet has cooled down from the inside out, but there are still many volcanoes flowing with red magma.

Clouds have begun to form over the dark earth, one of the few cloudy days in hundreds of millions of years.

Click!

A pale blue lightning streaked across the sky, and this huge lightning bolt occupied the entire sky, illuminating the entire sky and the vast land at once.

After a while, a light rain began to fall.

As soon as the hot ground touches the weak raindrops, they evaporate instantly.

White mist rises everywhere on the ground, and the red magma begins to slowly cool down and turn into hard rock, while the low-lying rocks that have long cooled down begin to collect rainwater, slowly forming a puddle.

As the rain continued to fall, the ground slowly cooled, and in a short time, the first lake on the planet was formed.

After all, it was the first time it had rained, and there was no large amount of water prepared in advance, so, after a few hours, the rain stopped.

The rain stopped, the sky cleared, the hot glow of the sun began to heat the earth, and in a few moments a white mist began to rise into the sky.

And so on, the rain fell and the water evaporated, and the few volcanoes on the planet also closed their mouths in sighs.

The clouds are getting thicker, the precipitation is getting heavier, and the lakes are getting bigger and bigger, and soon some of the lakes are full and begin to flow outward, forming small streams, which slowly converge into small rivers, and the small rivers continue to converge, and finally form a large river, which flows into the sea, and is the largest lake.

Nutrients in the sea begin to slowly accumulate, and lightning in the sky provides a steady stream of compounds, especially nitrides and sulfides, which make up proteins.

The advent of the first single-celled organism cost the planet more than a billion years.

At that moment, the blue comet reappeared, orbiting the planet surrounded by white clouds, and dropped a drop of blue liquid on it.

Syllable!

Blue droplets fall into the sea, blue sea.

The blue comet circled the vibrant galaxy and left.

Over the next few hundred million years, the planet's rotation stabilized and the plates moved slowly, but unfortunately, an asteroid with a diameter of more than 3,000 kilometers broke away from its orbit and crashed into it along a curve.

The asteroid is aimed at the right place.

The planet almost died in this impact, if it weren't for the strength of his heart.

However, a strange thing happened, the asteroid that hit it instantly reawakened the volcanoes on the planet, and for a while, almost all the volcanoes erupted one after another at the same time, while a big event happened on the other side.

The huge impact of the asteroid's impact directly lifted a continental plate on the other side of the planet, and the flying continental plate flew directly into the air tens of thousands of miles, flew out of the atmosphere, and entered space.

Under the action of its own gravity, it took hundreds of millions of years for this continental plate to finally achieve positive results and become a normal body shape, a sphere.

At this point, the planet has its own appearance as a satellite.

This planet has always wanted to live a stable life, but this galaxy is too chaotic, full of flying meteorites, meteorite groups, and there are really the most threatening asteroids that come to walk around from time to time, scaring all the planets.

Thanks to this satellite that revolves around him, he would have suffered otherwise.

Four billion years had passed in the blink of an eye, and at this time, a huge spaceship flew over, with all kinds of advanced observation equipment and scanning machines.

Ah, is this the planet that is spreading all the rage?

A strange-looking alien creature clicked a few times on the console, and the big screen in front of it showed the planet.

Well, it should be right, it's this galaxy, okay, let's not waste time, just take a few photos, collect a few information, and make an evaluation.

The other unearthly alien creature apparently had no interest in the planet.

Oh, it's not interesting for you to say that, we finally got out on a trip, and we were assigned a more casual mission, besides, this is the planet it chose! Aren't you curious?

To be honest, I've seen a lot of this kind of average planet.

Oh? Is it? Before you test it, you've already concluded that this planet is just so-so? Have you forgotten that it was chosen? Many of the people on the committee are curious and have high hopes for this planet!

Stop talking nonsense, okay? Hurry up and get to work!

It's good, it's boring.

The huge spaceship flew around the planet with a blue ocean and a green continent twice, took hundreds of photos and a dozen short videos, and also dropped several probes on the planet, and based on the recovered information, the final evaluation was as follows:

Planet Quality: Medium (divided into four levels), 6 points (the full score of each level is 10 points, the larger the score, the better);

Planetary Potential: Medium, rated 8;

Planet Value: Medium, rated 7.

If you see it, I'll just say so-so.

Yes, yes, you're right.

The alien creature thought to himself: I used to give high praise to this planet, but I didn't expect the rating to be so ordinary, and I thought that there was another one that reached the top evaluation, which was not at all as I expected.

Then it shook its head, and without speculating on its decision, it said to another extrovert: Okay, let's go, come back in 100 million years, and compare it when the time comes, and see if there is anything different that would make it choose this planet a trillion light-years away.

It's long overdue, just your ink.

It wasn't long before the massive ship flew away, and many people in the Galactic Council (not the humans on Earth) learned that it had chosen a planet with a mediocre rating, which puzzled people.

As 100 million years and 100 million years passed, several huge spaceships came back and forth, and gradually people discovered the huge potential of this planet, and the evaluation of 5 billion years has become as follows:

Planet Quality: Superior, score 8 points;

Planetary Potential: Superior, score 9;

Planet Value: Superior, rating 9 points.

Seeing this evaluation, everyone admired its eyes.

Counting this, this is already the seventh planet it has chosen, right?

Well, that's right, it's indeed the seventh, and the youngest of the previous six is already six billion years old, and this planet, which is only five billion years old, has developed a medium civilization, which is incredible, you know, the youngest six billion years old planet has only evolved a medium civilization in the last tens of thousands of years.

Again, the planet is still very young, and there is some time.

Almost everyone has high hopes for the planet, and all are looking forward to the evaluation of six billion years.

At the age of 5.6 billion years, the development of this planet reached its peak, and the subsequent evaluations also reached super, and the scores were all around 9 points.

However, a deviation from hundreds of millions of years ago, after hundreds of millions of years of infinite magnification, is now manifested: the creatures of this planet are full of ambition, full of greed, full of distorted pursuit of knowledge, and unscrupulous for their own selfishness.

The war to destroy the entire planet broke out inexorably after a failed negotiation.

By the time it was 5.7 billion years old, the alien races that came to visit and evaluate this planet were all dumbfounded and unbelievable, and they didn't know what was going on, only to see that the planet was devastated and lifeless, with nuclear radiation permeating the entire planet, and the only satellite being split in half.

One has to be disappointed to give this assessment:

Planet Quality: Inferior, 1 point;

Planetary Potential: Inferior, 2 points;

Planet Value: Inferior, rated 2 points.

Just as the people were about to leave after their evaluations, the blue comet appeared.

It's it! It's coming!

Everyone held their breath and watched the blue comet in silence.

The comet did not separate anything more, as if it had just glanced at it and hurried away.

When people saw this scene, they already guessed: it seems that even fate has given up on this planet.

Finish.
