Chapter 203
When Chen Xinyao first set foot on the desolate gray land of the moon, he felt that the desolation on the moon was a matter of course. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info because there is no water, no microbes, no blue sky, and not even a dense atmosphere to keep that poor planet warm.
But now, he clearly has the blue sky above his head, and not far away is an endless blue ocean, and even the white clouds in the sky are whiter than those in the Blue Bird Country. With a gentle breeze and a crisp air, everyone will feel that this place seems to be a paradise on earth at first sight.
Now, in this endless desert world, except for some sand dunes near the coastline covered with giant cacti, the whole view is a sea of desert and storms of death.
There was not a trace of life in the long yellow sand, just like the blue sea, not even a seabird. The only thing that was there was was a small strand of yarn rolled up on the flat ground, and when the force of the wind made the dry sand begin to fly, soon the surrounding sand would quickly meet its rhythm.
Less than a kilometer away, the growth and growth are already visible in the field of vision, and the dust tornado is more than 30 meters high. It is said that a tornado in the desert is God's harshest punishment for life, and it will suck the soul of a human being without leaving a trace. This death-like sandstorm will lead souls to hell, making it impossible for people to live forever.
Although Chen Xinyao knew that the desert in front of him that should not appear on the coastline was a product of the earth's crustal movement left over from the catastrophe of the planet Bra. But even if he knew the cause and effect, he still didn't expect that those violent global nuclear explosions would completely disappear the flora and fauna on the planet Bra, even the microorganisms. Of course, except for the cactus, it seems that it is the crevices in the sand that preserve their seeds, which allowed them to escape the dark catastrophe.
Although they are the only symbol of life in this barren land, the black skin and the deformed appearance of the wild growth seem to have traveled through time and space, and still tell the indelible scars that the global catastrophe brought to the planet thousands of years later.
Chen Xinyao's grief did not linger for long, and the drone's diffuse search soon brought him the expected good news. Images from the drone from 10 kilometers away showed a crescent-shaped freshwater lake in the middle of the desert, and a second plant species they found after arriving there, Salix.
Seeing that the drone searched for such a big surprise, Chen Xinyao excitedly ordered the entire landing force to go and camp there. On the afternoon of the day of landing, Chen Xinyao took Xia Feng to the crescent moon spring to collect water samples after making arrangements for his subordinates to build a temporary base.
He expects that in a thousand years, the quality of these waters will not be much different from the freshwater on Earth, and that some microorganisms will be found in these freshwater that nurtures life. Of course, in addition, Shang Jing, as a representative of the biochemical expert group, also participated in the nuclear radiation assessment of cacti and salix. Although the biochemical project is the scope of Tang Xueyan's management, Tang Xueyan, who has just given birth to Chen Zhuli, is already powerless at this time.
Although the freshwater sky was blue, the detection of carbon 14 and the measurement of the content of plutonium and uranium radioactive elements in plants, sand, and water that night made everyone disheartened.
Multiple genetically induced mutations have hindered the idea of the planet Bra as a second ideal habitat for humanity. Of course, this is not to say that this place is completely unsuitable for the survival of creatures, and they have to survive at the cost of being prepared for their own mutation. Since the microorganisms that make up life have been distorted and mutated, this seems inevitable.
Of course, this also released a very dangerous signal to Chen Xinyao, that is, the original inhabitants of the planet Bula survived, these people escaped the catastrophe of life on the space station, and they later had the ability to return to the planet Bula, according to Professor Du, these people have survivors in the end, since there are survivors and they still survive, then they will have descendants.
"Descendants of the survivors of the planet Bra? Could they have mutated long ago? Become an alien that has long since turned against their ancestors? After silently saying this, Chen Xinyao's mind came up with those biochemical people in Tang Xueyan's laboratory. Thinking of these terrifying third types of people, and then looking at the microorganisms in front of him who were mutated by radiation and showing their teeth and claws under the microscope, and then thinking of the radiation here that is still so strong a thousand years later, Chen Xinyao couldn't help but let out a sigh from the bottom of his heart.
It seems that everything is playing out as predicted, and Chen Xinyao's guess is almost inseparable from reality. When night fell on this peaceful lost planet, danger approached the unprepared group of earthlings.
In this barren land, as Chen Xinyao expected, the original people of the planet Bra had been exposed to radiation thousands of years ago and were slowly mutating. Although their ancestors had known for a long time that this mutation would cause their offspring to lose their original appearance, they had to accept such a cruel reality. In addition to the deep love in their hearts for the land that gave them life and home, they seem to be unable to cope with the unpredictable future.
When they returned to Planet Bra, all recorded civilizations had long since been destroyed. The magnetic field disturbance within an hour did not allow any of the aircraft on the ground to leave the planet, which had long been overrun by demons. All human civilization was wiped out in an instant, and all mountains and rivers began to change their original appearance. The sea boiled under a black canopy that obscured the sky, and flames poured into the sky from the bottom of the sea. The steel buildings were buried deep underground, and all the instruments for recording civilization were instantly engulfed in fire in this world by the people who were not yet fully awake. The magma is flowing into the earth's crust with everything on the planet Bra, the mantle is reorganizing, and everything is being reshuffled.
The people of Bula paid an irreparable price for their actions, although the people of the space station survived, as the magnetic field of Planet Bra stabilized for a long time. After losing contact with the planet, when they finally learned the truth, the technology to rebuild their home was already incomplete, and what was worse was that they had long since lost the ability to return to the space station after reacting. Chen Xinyao's tens of thousands of tons of high-energy nuclear weapons destroyed the last civilization of the people of Bula, but even so, it seems that the god of fate has completely ended everything they once had in the most cruel way after a thousand years.
Although their return spacecraft retained some of the most core technologies, at that time, there was almost nothing left in front of them except for the few ships that had run out of oil and were scarred. Coupled with the large number of astronauts who died after arriving on the planet Bra, in just one month, their people had almost no time to gather together to discuss how to rebuild their homes due to lack of water and medicine, coupled with the harsh living environment, and most of them had already died painfully on the planet that had already become hell.
Looking at the dead compatriots, the survivors of the planet Bra, who were busy saving their lives, suddenly discovered that the record civilization on the spaceship had not yet been brought back after living in the underground lair.
When they risk their lives to return to the ship's landing site to retrieve these last surviving records of civilization, they find that it was a lightning strike that ended their last hope. They had been rummaging through the ruins of steel for a whole month, and by the end of the day, everything but the weapons warehouse had long since disappeared from the world.
Eventually, the survivors of Bula had to burn their memories of the planet's civilization on the stone walls of the crypt until one day all the survivors died with disappointment and anguish.
Of course, what they never expected continued, and the Hand of God did not spare the descendants of the Bula people because of their death. Since people had to drink water, there were no instruments to measure water quality. The offspring they had produced after drinking the radiation-contaminated fresh water had already begun to mutate rapidly, and the descendants of the Bula people had clearly displayed more developed limbs, even if they were more demoralized, but they made up for it by being taller than their predecessors.
In the millennia of mutations that followed, the people of Bula had long since adapted to what the radiation had brought them. They have forgotten the appearance they once hated, and they do not feel that they are different from the appearance of their ancestors, which is a punishment of nature for them.
They grew sharper nails, and their ears were three times larger than before. In order to adapt to the conditions of underground life, their eyes become smaller, the hair on their scalp is lost, and the hair is replaced by a hard, hard, hard-wearing cuticle.
Of course, they also have a special ability to move freely through the sand. They found the underground rivers of the planet Bra, which were buried a few dozen meters below and were surrounded by polluted saprophytes. Because the radiation on the surface is much greater than that underground, according to the teachings of their ancestors, they have to stay in the darkness of the underground during the day.
As time traveled, more Bula people became accustomed to surviving underground. They settled around the underground river and established their own kingdom of darkness. The genes that are linked to their ancestors preserve their evolutionary journey. Their proficiency in writing and their perfect social system allowed them to quickly establish a stable social order in the underground river valley.
Because of this, hundreds of years later, they are no longer used to spending too long in the sun. The sun would make their jet-black skin stink and rot after a few hours. And, of course, eyesight, they have adapted to navigating through the dark and sand, and they seem to have developed enough aversion to the sun. Even so, there is something left on the ground that they cannot part with, and that is fresh water. Perhaps this fresh water on the ground is better than fresh water in underground rivers, and they have been accustomed to coming to the surface at night since their ancestors to collect fresh water for the next day, in addition to the plants on the desert and the gray continent are also their favorite snacks.
Chen Xinyao's mistake was that his camp was built on the edge of this large crescent lake, and of course his misfortune was also caused by the ancestors of the planet Bra. Although the survivors of the planet Bra have lost their civilization, their ancestors still left on the stone wall the words belonging to the people of the planet Bra, as well as descriptions and drawings of advanced civilizations. They inspire future generations to look for opportunities to recreate the planet's glory. Although these Bula people are ugly in appearance and even live like pangolins, they have long since lost their characteristics as high-level animals. However, this does not mean that they are not advanced animals, and even the evolution process of this kind of life is much longer than that of earthlings themselves.
When they arrived at the lake in the middle of the night, they quickly spotted the brightly lit ships with their keen sense of smell, and the leaders recognized them as almost exactly as their ancestors had depicted them. This exhilarates them, as if these invaders had become their last hope for the revitalization of the planet Bra in an instant. After a whispered conversation, the group quietly disappeared into the depths of the desert. Although they did not come near the lake again to get fresh water, by this time, on the way home, a great conspiracy had already been born.
First of all, of course, the most urgent thing they want to do now is to deliver this exciting good news to everyone as soon as possible. They are going to mobilize the whole people, and they are ready to sacrifice at any time even from the moment their ideas germinate. In order to revitalize their homeland and realize the dreams of their ancestors, thousands of years have been waiting, and this group of aliens seems to have become their only lifeline.
"As long as we are not afraid of sacrifice, bravely united, and courageous, we will conquer these invaders. Let them be our slaves, let them hand over the civilization that belongs to us that has disappeared for a thousand years, and let them take us to space to find the splendor of the universe that our ancestors left behind a thousand years ago. We are not afraid of sacrifice, we are not afraid of fighting, and the great Bula Patron Saint will give us refuge. Get your blood boiling, my people, and today is our night of revelry. The darkness will eventually pass, the light is at hand, and for the sake of the future, we must fight now. Capture these people alive, they are our future. When the leader finished his impassioned speech in front of thousands of people, the center of the largest castle under the planet Bra was completely boiling.
Almost overnight, all the people of the planet Bra knew that a group of aliens had arrived. Although they don't know what the purpose of these aliens is here for the time being, of course it doesn't matter to them. In their eyes, the most important thing now is to capture these aliens alive, to make them submit and serve them willingly, every Bula people know that this group of aliens is not an invader, capture them alive, let them become slaves, and their future will be full of hope.
At dawn the day after the call to battle was launched, when Chen Xinyao and the others had not yet woken up from their sleep. The rulers of the planet Bra have already begun to distribute weapons to their warriors. Although they have long since lost their glorious civilization, those who survived the disaster still left their descendants with the most advanced weapons in the world at that time, perhaps because of the existence of these things, it has always inspired every Bra people to find the former glory of this planet for the next thousand years.
As the only surviving legacy after a lightning strike, they were moved to the safest place in the underworld almost along with the ship's weapons warehouse. Powered by solar panels, these weapons are almost as good as new in the high-tech weapons storage warehouse. Of course, no one thought that a thousand years ago, there would be laser weapons among the weapons of the Brahs. If Chen Xinyao was allowed to see this group of crazy monsters holding individual nuclear weapons in a dark world, he would definitely be stunned.
