Chapter Eighty-Seven: Dark Canopy
Blemish Star, a planet of blue and white. Of course, this is already in the past, compared to its sister Hua Lanyue, the flawed star has successfully fallen from the handsome and rich in the planet to the second-class earth turtle, and a layer of gray-yellow smoke screen has replaced the original blue sea and white clouds, just like painting, the entire flawed star has been tightly brushed into a gray earth ball.www.biquge.info
Gray and yellow is still a euphemism, in the eyes of the author, this color is clearly dry brown.
It's disgusting, disgusting. For blemish life, this is the color of death.
They are a mixture of fine dust raised by meteorite impacts and soot from very large volcanic events, which are ejected high into the atmosphere by air currents away from the surface. In later generations, these guys appeared in the public eye as a man-made source of pollution, and they also had a seemingly lofty name - PM2.5.
These tiny specks of dust have violently occupied a capital of intelligent life called Beijing, and what I can't see when I hold your hand but can't see your face clearly, etc., has caused a lot of respiratory problems and brought a lot of entertainment topics, and has become a hot topic for the country's citizens.
They're really small and inconspicuous, but they're not to be underestimated.
Especially when they gather on a large scale.
At first, a faint white mist spread in the sky, and the sky gradually became gloomy, and then, at an alarming rate, the white mist turned into a dull gray, then a disgusting gray-yellow, and before the creatures could react, the gray-yellow turned into a breathless inky black! Obscured the entire sky!
Countless creatures looked up at the sky, frightened and helpless, as they watched - in just a few days, the world was plunged into darkness!
For the first week, it's not a big deal, if the light source disappears and leads to a massive scuffle (please make up the Brainless Chaos Global Upgrade), and a large number of diurnal creatures are brutally murdered. The sudden disappearance of the light source is not a big problem for large species at all, but now it is a marine environment, except for those creatures that have evolved to rely heavily on light sources, everyone has their own low-light vision, is it okay? The species that crawled out of the deep sea have no glimmer vision and no light perception or anything, dare you believe it? Except for the initial discomfort, there is nothing else.
But from the second week, something was wrong! Some phytoplankton with a short growth period began to die abnormally, and the food chain **** caused from the bottom directly affected countless organisms, and these sun-dependent lives fell into an unsolvable predicament, and some even began the road to extinction!
But at this time, there are still many species that are not vigilant, because the energy transfer of the food chain takes time, from the lowest producer to the highest level of overlord consumers, the energy is transferred layer by layer, and it is enriched in the body of the advanced consumers, until they are plundered by the higher predators, and this whole set of changes takes a lot of time.
The more basic the creatures, the more they can perceive the drastic changes in heaven and earth, and those overlords who are at the top of the food chain are the most sluggish. It's no wonder that mass extinctions are always finding these people at the top of the food chain.
However, before the catastrophe of the dark sky, it doesn't matter whether you reacted or not! If it is a change that spans millions of years like the Ice Age, the subconscious of the species can also allow organisms to slowly adapt and change, but a big meteorite smashing in the face is not included! It's too late for you to make any changes!
The third week! Patches of phytoplankton are dying, and a lot of plankton is cut off! The massive reduction in producers is beginning to shake the stability of the food chain, and most life is already aware of the imminent imminence of death!
There has never been a life, never a life so urgently to feel the importance of the sun!
A month after the darkness shrouded the Blemish Star, this storm caused by the breaking of the energy cycle finally showed its might!
Even large producers with abundant nutrient reserves are withering and withering after a month without access to sunlight, and the problem of survival is like a cold steel knife against their throats, and more small species that feed on plankton have begun to go extinct on a large scale! Their death sent the entire biosphere into a panic!
Because this is destruction! It is a weed-cutting and root-cutting that leaves no chance!
What is Biosphere? It is layer by layer, the food chain converges and interweaves into a complex and complex network of food chains, and the most basic energy is snatched from the sun by life, and the rivers flow in this network, so that the flawed star presents a vibrant scene. This network is called the biosphere.
They are complex and robust, and ordinary natural events are powerless to shake this behemoth, even if it is a global catastrophe. In the face of disaster, the giant web will be broken and peeled off, but this network called the "biosphere" has shown incredible vitality under the disaster: broken? I mended it up and peeled off? I grew back and tore? That's even better, it means we have two nets!
However, the energy that supports the stable operation of this huge net is sunlight, and sunlight is the source of all this.
It is indeed strong, highly resistant, thick in blood, and resilient, but its energy comes from sunlight, and without sunlight, there would be no giant net.
What the dark canopy is doing is drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle! As long as the initial source of energy is destroyed, the entire "giant net" will be self-defeating! Destruction begins at the source!
This is the dark canopy, as long as it lasts long enough, it is enough to destroy most of the life of the Blemish Star, except for those small biospheres that live on geothermal resources, the Completely Deficient Star may not be able to find living creatures above the size of bacteria!
It's the real killer of the Great Meteorite! In front of it, the Poseidon's Fury and the rocket rain are super natural disasters that terrify everything.

Nine fish poked its head out of the crack in the stone where it was hiding, carefully probing its surroundings with its big bulging eyes, and those who saw this scene had no doubt that at the slightest breeze, the strange little creature that looked like the number 9 would retract into the safety of the stone crevice.
In the third year of the dark sky, it has been three years since the meteorite fell.
9 Fish are not really fish, huh...... It seems that none of the dragon sets with fish in the name of the current flawed star appearance can have anything to do with the creature of fish, but these are all details, details or something, so don't care.
9 Fish are plant animals, and they are herbivorous plant animals. How? You carnivores are allowed to eat meat, and we plants can't eat plants yet?
Yes, 9 fish is a plant, a plant that feeds on plants. This creature resembling the number 9 also caused great controversy in later generations: some scholars insisted on naming this strange-looking creature with the special number 9, but others refused to admit it, calling the fish "6 turned".
β¦β¦ Well, it doesn't seem to make a difference, I really don't know what those guys are fighting for.
9 The fish is not a special creature, it is just an ordinary miscellaneous soldier, it has neither a strong body and sharp claws, nor does it have the special ability to hunt for strange evolutionary life such as bomb maniacs and flying sticks, although it has a body shape that looks very interesting, but this body can neither make it swim fast nor make it jump high, it is the bottom consumer of the food chain, and lives in the shadow of those powerful beings all its life.
The only commendable thing about the 9 fish is probably their explosive reproductive ability and tenacious vitality, as a plant animal, their vital point is much less than other animals, and they will not die if they are cut off half of their bodies, and they reproduce in a more primitive way with spores, which effectively improves the continuation ability of their population - even if it is a thousand spores, out of 10,000 spores, only one can live to adulthood, that is also the victory of 9 fish! How many spores it sprays at one time are more than 100,000?
Although this method of reproduction is ruthless, it ensures that every surviving and qualified breeder is an extremely healthy and strong individual, which keeps the population in a state of active prosperity and ensures the continuation of the race. You must know that even the huge sauropod dinosaurs adopted this kind of "casting a wide net and catching more fish" reproduction method, primitive or not primitive, cruel or not cruel is not important, and it is a good way to reproduce so that the population can survive.
At the height of the species, the 9 fish is undoubtedly a success, but if the target is reduced to an individual, the 9 fish can become a model for scum creatures.
The only thing they can rely on is prudence, prudence and prudence, and only in this way can the chances of survival of the individual be increased.
9 Fish carefully hid on the dead coral reef and watched the rocky beach not far away.
It greedily looked at the patches of withered yellow moss on the rocks, and tried to rush forward desperately several times, but it endured it alive.
Life is only once, but it can't be messed around.
But it can't give up the food here, it hasn't eaten for days, and if it doesn't get replenishment, it will die.
Vaguely, it vaguely remembered that the world should not be like this, it should have green kelp, emerald sea bamboo leaves as food, those delicate fibers and cell walls that can come out of the water with a single bite, not the dead moss in front of it, which is yellow and difficult to eat.
But what color is emerald green? What is kelp sea bamboo? Oh, it seems to be eaten, but the food that 9 fish have seen seems to only have two colors: withered yellow and gray and white. Verdure...... It has not been seen since birth.
