Chapter 201: Mysterious Ecosystem
"Hey, is there really life? I'll have to see it. "There is nothing to be embarrassed about without outsiders, after Gaia's reminder, Chen Jialuo's mind extended, and sure enough, he also sensed that there was a very huge life form moving under the ice, and the body was really huge, with a length and width of more than 100 meters, which was really a very magical thing.
activated the battle armor, unfolded the telekinesis shield, innate qi or something, and then activated the ability to penetrate matter, sliding down......
Beneath the ice is a huge ocean, and the water temperature is not very cold, as high as more than ten degrees, and you will be greeted by huge jellyfish-like creatures. As soon as Chen Jialuo appeared, a huge jellyfish swallowed Chen Jialuo in one bite, of course, it was spit out in an instant, and then fled in an instant, because it was electrocuted by the palm thunder released by Chen Jialuo just now.
"Uh, is that a jellyfish?"
"Yes sir, this super-large jellyfish has many similarities in genes with jellyfish on the earth, so it can also be called a jellyfish, and the jellyfish that attacked you just now may have lived for more than 50,000 years if you count it in the years of the earth."
"Uh, how do you know?"
"That jellyfish swallowed Mr. just now, I have used the scanning system on the battle armor to analyze all the information about its body!"
“…… Lived for more than 50,000 years? That's not a 10,000-year-old demon, why is the wisdom of looking at these things very low! If you don't chirp, it's better than a pig. ”
"Yes sir, that jellyfish survives completely by instinct, its intelligence is indeed inferior to that of a pig, and even inferior to a mouse, in fact, Mr. should correct his cognitive mistakes, the pig is not stupid among living things, its IQ is already very good, if Mr. wants to say that a certain creature is stupid, it is better to say that a single-celled organism is ......"
"Well, Gaia, I've noticed you, and you've become a lot more verbose!"
"By the way, you say this creature is basically genetically like a jellyfish? So what is the gene that makes it so big? ”
"I haven't been able to analyze it yet, and this will take some time!"
Chen Jialuo continued to dive into the depths of the ocean, as if recording the ecological chain of the planet, collecting data by the way, and adding more species to the virtual world he was building.
However, as he dived down, he found that the creatures of this marine world seemed to be very single, and few other creatures were found, and the large jellyfish saw another one, but this time, Chen Jialuo waited with the palm thunder from afar, and the big jellyfish was directly driven away, but I really couldn't figure it out, what is the food source of this big jellyfish, it seems that the sea is too clean, and there is nothing to eat.
"Gaia, what do these jellyfish usually eat, can you analyze it?"
“…… They should not 'eat' most of the time, they are kept alive by absorbing some minerals in the ocean, and the jellyfish that attacked Mr. before may have taken him for a big ore! ”
Gaia is also not very clear, and can only give a rough guess.
"Sure enough, there is a problem with the IQ of these creatures, how can any ore swim around on its own...... Uh, what the hell is that? Before Chen Jialuo's words were finished, he suddenly found that there was really a thing like a stone, swaying past him, and it seemed to be quite leisurely, Chen Jialuo suddenly felt that his worldview was about to collapse, this is the real world he is in, and it is not a magical film and television plane, how can such a magical creature appear.
"It should be a silicon-based lifeform!"
"Silicon-based lifeforms? No wonder it feels like a stone, but how did this stone evolve into life? ”
"Sir, don't you still have tens of thousands of robot subordinates? That's a kind of silicon-based life, and there are still many chips in their bodies that are still made of silicon! ”
"It's the same, it's man-made!"
"What does man think, sir?"
“…… Evolutionary ...... However, it seems that it is not very scientific for silicon-based life to evolve naturally. ”
"Scientific or not, how can we be sure now, maybe when there are more worlds to explore in the future, it is possible to find that the entire planet is a living entity!"
"Well, maybe what you said makes sense, life forms are so strange that you really can't make a simple conclusion, but how could silicon-based life evolve here, and the natural environment here doesn't seem to be special!"
The two chatted and soon reached the depths of the seabed, the depth of the ocean is about 100 kilometers, the texture activity of the seabed is really active, and it can be clearly sensed, and there is a place more than 100 kilometers away in the distance where the earth's crust is about to move, and a submarine volcano is erupting on a large scale.
Perhaps it was because of the volcanic activity under the sea that a large amount of minerals were released, and a lot of heat was added to the ocean, so it brought vitality to what should have been a dead ocean......
"Sir, maybe we can discover the secrets of the evolution of those silicon-based life, 150 kilometers away in front of the left, there is the submarine volcano erupting, detecting a lot of silicon-based life activities."
There are various high-precision detectors on the battle armor, and the silicon-based life has been recorded by Gaia when it passes by the side just now, so after turning on the scan, it was quickly discovered that the anomaly in the distance was similar.
Such a large submarine volcanic eruption, Chen Jialuo also clearly sensed it, so he quickly swam over, the volcanic activity has stopped, but the volcanic ash has also precipitated, leaving a very magical thing at the scene, that is a large area of crystals emitting a pale green light, scattered in the underwater world, reflecting the black seabed like a beautiful starry sky.
Slowly approaching a glowing crystal, the thing is still quite large, about 10 meters high, 5 meters long and wide, showing an irregular prismatic shape, the crystal is crystal clear, exuding a pale green light, it looks very attractive indeed.
The crystal was surrounded by a number of silicon-based lifeforms, floating around presumably 'foraging', but it looked elegant, as if it were dancing.
Silicon-based lifeforms are large and small, the big ones are three or four meters long, and the small ones are only a few centimeters long, and these magical creatures seem to be absorbing some kind of special energy emitted by the crystal, which should be one of their main foods.
"It seems that I have a special fate with crystals in my life, and I have actually seen a magical crystal again!"
It does look like a crystal in appearance, so let's call it a crystal for the time being! Floated over, knocked down a small piece of crystal, ready to study it carefully, but after putting it in his hand, it began to melt after a while, and the three or four centimeter-sized crystal dissolved in a few minutes and disappeared.
"Is it an energy body?"
"Sir, this crystal is not an energy body but is dissolved by seawater, it should be a substance that can be dissolved in seawater, but there is no such substance in our known elements!"
"Well, after this thing dissolves, it seems to be sinking rapidly, and it looks like it may be deposited into the ground for a while and then pushed out by submarine volcanic activity!"
After careful induction, I still found that the materials dissolved by the seawater were sinking rapidly, and they did not stop sinking to the bottom of the sea, but continued to penetrate.
"Sir, we should collect some, this crystalline body should be taken back for research, it should have a lot of uses!"
"Of course, but this crystal seems to be decomposing too quickly, and it has penetrated to the bottom of the sea, let's go down and take a look, maybe we can find a lot in the underground world, it's better to get a batch directly from below."
With a space ring with a storage space of up to 1 cubic kilometer, although it contains a lot of things, there is still more than half of the remaining space, just enough to collect some things, and by the way, it also collected a few small silicon-based lifeforms, and it is really amazing to use this thing for research and analysis.
Just now I saw a big jellyfish snatch some silicon-based life and devour it, and then spit out a few 'small pebbles', which turned out to be the kind of silicon-based life that is a few centimeters in size, and these little things are still alive and vibrant around the magic crystal and happily 'eating'. It's like being swallowed by a jellyfish and digested all over again, something completely inconsequential, it's amazing.
