"Such a huge storm should be the atmospheric vortex I observed in space-synchronous orbit?" Shen Cong quickly thought of the picture of reconnaissance from a high altitude. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The atmosphere of the planet Te in the constellation Cetus often erupts with large and small whirlpools.

It's a bit like Jupiter, a gaseous planet in the solar system, and the storms on Jupiter are huge, the biggest of which is the famous Great Red Spot.

Jupiter's Great Red Spot is a characteristic sign of Jupiter's surface and is the largest storm cyclone on Jupiter.

It is about 25,000 kilometers long, spans 12,000 kilometers up and down, rotates in a counterclockwise direction every 6 Earth days, and often rolls up cloud towers up to 8 kilometers high. Since the storm was first observed by astronomers in the 17th century, the Great Red Spot has been around for at least 200 to 350 years.

It has changed color and shape, but it has never completely disappeared.

So when he first came into contact with Planet Te, seeing these whirlpools, Shen Cong was still worried about whether this was also a gaseous planet. Now he felt the storm and the ferocity of nature, one of the many miracles that the universe has evolved over billions of years.

"The storm was strong, and the soil on the surface was rolled up, but not strong enough to destroy the rock columns. It seems that the rock pillars are also very eager for storms, what is the relationship? ”

The confinement shape of the super eight-knot gold cloak was blown by the air flow when the storm did not come.

The dark blue mask flickered, and the Sky Eye radar continued to extend, enveloping every detail of the Radius, waiting for the storm to come. Soon, the storm wall descended on Shen Cong's head with a devastating momentum. At this moment, the secrets in the storm were also exposed in Shen Cong's eyes.

His light vision is invisible, but the Sky Eye Radar is very active in storms.

Nothing within a dozen kilometers could escape his observation.

"I see, there are life in the storm, and these lives are the objects of prey on the rock pillars...... To be precise, it is to prey on each other. ”

Shen Cong saw that in the storm, there were many rag-like living beings. These individuals harness the storm's swift currents, sometimes spreading their tattered, porous bodies and climbing forward; Sometimes shrinking into a ball, falling and changing direction. It's like an ugly ghost in the wind.

Such ghosts in the wind are a little ugly, but it does not prevent them from blending well with the storm.

The way of predation is also simple.

The rag creature rushed to the front of the rock pillar, spread its body, and immediately wrapped the yellow ball of light, then tore it from the rock pillar, and climbed high into the storm with the yellow ball of light, silently devouring it.

The magma creatures spew magma material, and when they hit the rag creatures, they can immediately wrap and squeeze the rag creatures into a ball, fall to the ground, and quickly melt into the ground.

Hunting and being hunted are only in the moment.

The strong storm currents not only did not hinder the hunt, but instead increased the speed of the hunt, and in the blink of an eye, countless yellow balls of light were torn off, and countless rag creatures were pulled into the ground.

Shen Cong raised his hand and pulled a rag creature into his hand.

The rag creature really resembles a rag, with no eyes, ears, mouth, nose, no wings, and no limbs, only a thick cortex, which is of varying thickness and filled with bubbles.

"A rag creature, at least a few tens of meters in size, the composition of its body, has been contaminated with metal life. But it is not a complete metallic life, but more of a non-metallic inorganic substance...... Presumably because of the lack of metals in the T Galaxy Cetus, metal life is underdeveloped. ”

There is plenty of metal on the earth, so all living things are metalized in a short period of time.

The metal content here is relatively small, and the metallization speed and process of life are correspondingly slowed down, or even incomplete. Otherwise, for nearly twenty years, there should not be no complete metal life.

Tear rag creatures and study the internal structure.

Shen Cong discovered: "There is no brain tissue, only simple 'muscle tissue' and the Shenhuo system, which is another low-level creature. Unfortunately, it is impossible to guess what this creature looked like before it was contaminated. ”

The magma creature was judged by Shen Cong to be an incompletely developed fire spirit, not an indigenous creature.

The rag creatures are more like indigenous creatures.

"Now that in addition to magma creatures, rag creatures have been discovered, it's time to establish a taxonomy of the planet Te. Magma creatures are called Magma Elves and rag creatures are called Storm Elves...... Although they don't look like 'elves' in the slightest. ”

Shen Cong has read a lot of Western fantasy novels, which have creatures like elves, including in the "Lord of the Rings" series of movies, and elves in the game Warcraft.

Elves are handsome and elegant creatures.

However, Shen Cong felt that the elf had the word "spirit", which was more in line with the spirit of fire, and it was still somewhat in line with Xindaya.

"The magma elves that live underground, the storm elves who live in storms, the creatures of this planet, evolve in a very different direction from the earth. It looks like I'm going to collect all the Tinder resources, and it's going to take a long time. Shen Cong was not frustrated, he was prepared to fight for a long time before he came.

What he fears most is that the path of evolution will lose its direction, not the effort required for evolution.

"It seems that this storm will not dissipate for a while and a half, I am here to hunt the storm elves, it will not help much with the overall situation, or I should kill the magma elves as soon as possible, install a collector, and collect the tinder grains. At the same time, I will collect more than eight knots and master more resources. ”

Super Eight Knot Gold is the most important resource, which is directly related to his strength.

Tinder grains are the main resource used for evolution.

It doesn't take much to activate metal, enough for him to build a new sub-light ship.

……

The storm was howling overhead.

Shen Cong continued to expand the magma channel, enough for him to advance towards the underground magma area, and the project did not last long. Today's Shen Cong is a cosmic spark that is more powerful than the Transformers, and it is a piece of cake to dig into the ground.

After the passage is dug through.

The body of the magma spirit was immediately exposed to Shen Cong's eyes, which was a huge magma reservoir. Feeling the rich fire energy in the magma, as well as the hostile resistance, Shen Cong plunged headlong into it.

Entering the magma elf's body, it is obvious that countless magma substances want to penetrate into his body and devour him.

It's a pity that it's useless.

Shen Cong kept wandering in the body of the magma elf, exploring how big the magma elf was and whether there was a core part inside. This exploration really made him discover many interesting phenomena.

It turns out that the magma elves are not a separate entity.

Rather, seven individuals are mixed together.

Each individual is about the size of Shanghai, crisscrossing the underground.

In the central area of the magma elf's body, there is a fire grain enrichment area, and if time goes by, this fire grain enrichment area may be able to evolve into a superbrain, or a proto-fire area. It is only the lack of metal, combined with the fact that certain conditions are not met, that delay this evolution.

"Very good, if you collect the area where the fire grains are enriched, the magma elves will inevitably die, and the rest of the collection will be simple." Shen Cong said to do it, and immediately devoured the fire-seed-rich area.

Devouring the area where the tinder grains are enriched, it is clear that although the properties of the remaining magma material have not changed much, the tinder grains in it are no longer entangled with each other and become scattered particles.

At the same time, the resistance to Shen Cong also disappeared because of this.

In other words, the magma spirit has completely become the magma on the earth, and it is simply a magma that can absorb the energy of fire.

In the central area of each magma elf corpse, Shen Cong built a collector and a catalytic converter, and located the coordinates, and Shen Cong left the underground magma reservoir where he had been swimming for nearly a week.

Get out of the magma reservoir.

The storm overhead continued, howling and raging.

Lots and lots of storm spirits flew through it, but unfortunately they had lost their prey, the rock pillars could no longer grow, and the yellow balls of light could no longer appear.
