Chapter 150: Super Photosynthesis

I don't know who called the police station, but the security officers from the nearby security bureau soon came.

Brought everyone who is now there, including the five white men, the students involved in the fight, and the people watching the excitement, to the sheriff's office.

Countless people took the initiative to follow and testify to the students.

After some investigation and questioning, the sheriff finally identified five white people from the Confederate as picking quarrels and provoking trouble, insulting the heroes of Hawk Island, who could face at least six months to a year in prison under Hawk Island law......

The students of Hawk Island University of Science and Technology, when the persuasion and warning were ineffective, subdued and took the initiative to report to the police, which is an act of subduing the crime, and should have been praised and rewarded, but because they shot too hard, they were given verbal warnings.

Eventually, in the midst of loud protests by five white men, the students were released, singing the Hawk Island national anthem in high spirits and heading back.

Along the way, countless citizens joined, and soon a huge team of thousands of people was formed, and the singing was earth-shattering.

He Xiao was a little surprised by this scene, and sure enough, the current Hawk Island islanders are really full of national pride.

Only the people of a big country in the period of rapid rise have this kind of courage!

"Haha, well done, the kangaroo people are so disgusting, they should have been cured a long time ago."

In recent years, the Confederation of the Confederates has been targeting Hawk Island, and the country has always suppressed Hawk Island-related businesses and businessmen, and tourists from Hawk Island have often been treated unfairly in the Confederation.

This time, it can be said that it is really happy.

In fact, over the years, Hawk Island has never been accustomed to these foreigners who have broken the law and committed crimes.

……

The next day, He Xiao came to the volcanic Tianchi Waterfall near Shangjiang City according to the plan.

The crater here forms a 20-square-kilometer heavenly lake, which is so abundant in the tropics that it overflows from the edge of the gap to form a super waterfall 32 meters high and 90 meters wide.

Even though I've been here once before, it's still incomparably spectacular and incomparably shocking.

At this moment, several familiar faces appeared in front of him.

"Hey, it's you! Hello! We're the ones from the sheriff's department last night......"

"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here, thank you for testifying for us last night!"

The other party recognized him first and greeted him very warmly.

"It should be, it should be." He Xiao smiled and said, "You are also here to travel?" ”

"Haha, of course not, I'm a local, and our school is nearby, so I've been there countless times." One of the petite and cute female students said with a smile on her face.

But He Xiaoke remembered that she was one of the girls who beat people with a stick yesterday.

"And what are you doing here?" He Xiao asked with some curiosity.

"Hey, we're on patrol! Take charge of all the uncivilized behavior in this scenic spot! The girl said proudly.

"Part-time?" He Xiao asked.

"It's not! It's a volunteer activity! ”

"Not paid?"

"What does volunteering pay for...... Look at how beautiful it is, and every island on Hawk Island has a responsibility to protect it......"

"That's good."

"Are you here for a tour?"

"Yes."

"Come with us! We'll give you a tour guide for free! ”

"That's great."

"My name is Han Buckwheat, buckwheat buckwheat, what's your name."

"My name is Huang Chao, the transcendent Chao."

"Huang Chao, good name, I'll introduce you to other people, in fact, some of us only met last night, haha, this is ......"

……

He Xiao walked with them, listened to them all the time, observed each of them, they were so real, so moving, everyone had their own character, everyone had their own experience and story.

When I first revised the population, it was just a number, but when it came to each of them, it was so moving.

Of course, they did not know that it was the Creator who created them who walked with them......

"Did you watch the news today? Our rover has made another major discovery! One of the fat boys said.

"What's so surprising that there aren't major discoveries made every day?" The petite girl Han Qiao said disapprerovantly.

She's right, these days, the news about Mars can be said to be every day, and every discovery would have been sensational news if it had been put aside, but now, it is just sparse and ordinary, and it is not worth making a fuss about at all.

For example, the reproductive ability of plants on Mars is particularly strong, and now there are large areas of "grass" on Mars......

However, because the photosynthesis of Martian plants is much stronger than that of blue stars, and can absorb all visible light, as well as most of the wavelength bands of infrared rays, and a small part of ultraviolet rays, the grass of Mars is black......

Not only "grass", but also aquatic plants, many Martian oceans, in the photos of the rover, large areas of water have turned black.

This proves that these oceans have been overrun by large areas of Martian aquatic plants!

Unlike the sea creatures of the Blue Star, these marine life forms float on the surface of the sea, so that they can better photosynthesize.

According to estimates, the photosynthesis efficiency of Martian plants is about 20 times that of blue star plants, and they can absorb almost all the light energy they are exposed to.

They can photosynthesize even at night, because the surface of Mars, as well as many objects, emit infrared light!

Therefore, their growth rate is extremely fast, and the rate of reproduction is extremely fast, far beyond the imagination of the Blue Star humans......

"This time it's different, it's really blockbuster news! It just came out! The fat boy said.

"Say it, don't shut it down!"

"Then I said, Duke Eight, a terrestrial Martian animal has been discovered!"

"! Terrestrial Martian animal ???! ”

"It's impossible, the concentration of oxygen on Mars, terrestrial Martian animals shouldn't be able to live......"

"Damn, I'll take a look at ......"

They are all top students at Hawk Island University of Science and Technology, and some of them are majoring in aerospace science and technology, so they have been paying close attention to the news of Mars.

In fact, I don't know about them, all the Blue Star people are concerned......

Since the emergence of the Martian ocean, the Martian protobacteria have been discovered, and then various Martian plants have emerged, so far, 1228 species of Martian plants have been discovered, basically all of which were discovered by the Mars rover Wutai Duke 8 on Hawk Island......

Due to the drastic climate change on Mars, the rovers of other countries have been scrapped and lost contact with each other because of their flaws in design.

According to the speculation of the scientific community, these Martian plants should have been "resurrected" by ancient Martian creatures after the sudden change in the environment......

Many people think of a sci-fi "Three-Body Problem"!

Soak! Soak! Soak!

These Martian plants, when sensing that the temperature, moisture and atmosphere are already suitable for survival, absorb a lot of water and complete the "resurrection"!

This completely subverted the perception of life in the Blue Star scientific community......

This means that the "lifespan" of these Martian life forms may be hundreds of millions of years or even longer......

However, whether the time they are dehydrated and "dormant" is considered "lifespan" is very controversial, some people think that it is counted, some people think it is not, and it needs to be defined by a unified standard for the scientific community in the future.

Only He Xiao knows that the "lifespan" of life on Mars was not so long.

The only thing that is really "resurrected" is the Martian protobacteria, and its "lifespan" is not as long as hundreds of millions of years, because its vitality is relatively strong and can survive in extreme environments, so it is not a single body that lives for hundreds of millions of years, but has been resurrected countless times during the period and reproduces offspring......

And the resurrection of other higher-level Martian life was created by He Xiao with entries......

However, he didn't really compile 1,228 species of Martian plants, he only compiled more than 50 species, and the rest were deduced by the entry system itself, which is equivalent to the system automatically completing a plant evolution system......

The photosynthesis and reproduction ability of Martian plants are also automatically deduced by the system, and they are not specially set by He Xiao......

In other words, if the normal evolutionary route is followed, Martian plants will inevitably have such a strong photosynthesis and reproductive ability.

In other words, only with such a strong photosynthesis and reproductive ability, Martian plants can survive and evolve in the Martian environment for a long time......

Environments that are more extreme than the Blue Star will inevitably lead to the evolution of the Blue Star's more powerful abilities, otherwise, they are doomed to extinction.

The strong photosynthesis and reproduction ability of Martian plants also contributed to a result.

That is, the composition of the Martian atmosphere is changing rapidly, and the speed of change is far beyond the imagination of the Blue Star people, and even far beyond He Xiao's imagination......

According to the detection of the Duke 8 Mars rover, in just one year, the oxygen concentration of Mars has increased from negligible to 8.4%! The concentration of carbon dioxide has dropped from almost 99% to 91.2%!

Moreover, because the Martian vegetation is growing exponentially, this rate is accelerating, and if there is no change, all the carbon dioxide in the Martian atmosphere will soon be converted into organic matter, and the oxygen concentration in the Martian atmosphere will be increased to 99%......

Similar to the time of the mass extinction of cyanobacteria that once appeared on the blue star.

However, this is not possible, because the change in oxygen content has led to some new changes......

For example, the "resurrection" of the Martian animal.

As early as a few months ago, when the oxygen concentration was only about 3%, the rover on Hawk Island discovered the first Martian animal, a sponge-like lower animal, the most primitive and simplest multicellular animal......

They are morphologically similar to the Bluestar sponge, with a soft body that does not swim and lives sessibly, attaching to rocks, aquatic plants, and other objects in the water......

So they are named Martian sponges, of course, in the world, they are just similar in shape, and the internal structure is much worse.

In essence, this is also a kind of convergent evolution.

In a similar environment, even if the varieties are completely different, they will inevitably evolve into similar forms, because one or several forms are the most suitable for survival, and those that are not these forms are eliminated.

The reason why He Xiao chose to create the Martian sponge as the starting point of the Martian animal is also because the entry system shows that this creature has the lowest difficulty entry, which also proves that it should be a general direction of the evolutionary trend of life on Mars......

It can't be said to be inevitable, because evolution has a lot to do with the environment, and there are also accidents, such as the asteroid that destroyed the Blue Star dinosaur family at the beginning, it was completely accidental, and if it didn't appear, no one knows what the Blue Star creatures would eventually evolve into.

After the discovery of the Martian sponge, hundreds of low-level Martian animals were discovered one after another.

According to their morphology, they are named Martian trilobites, Martian odd shrimps, Martian jawless fish, Martian cornerstones, Martian nautilus, Martian sea scorpions, Martian sea newts, and many more......

They all have two things in common, one is that they are not large, and the other is that they both live in the Martian ocean.

Even the ancient sea creatures that were very large on the blue star, such as the Martian shrimp, are not large enough to be about 20 centimeters long.

It just looks like an odd shrimp, which is completely different in nature from the strange shrimp, it eats seaweed and microorganisms.

All this time, no terrestrial animals have been found, and no large animals have been found......

Therefore, the people of Blue Star are looking forward to whether there will be large animals or terrestrial animals......

It is precisely because of this that when the fat boy told everyone that a large animal was discovered on Mars, Han Buckwheat and others were so excited.

The long-awaited moment has finally arrived!

If there are really large animals on Mars, or even terrestrial animals, it means that it is not impossible for Mars to have intelligent life......

Maybe some day, intelligent life on Mars will also be "resurrected"!

"Damn, it's an amphibian! Martian animals, finally coming ashore! Han Qiao said as she stared at the photo on her phone.

"It's a bit like a tadpole that has just grown its hind legs......"

"What a little tadpole, it's more like a fish newt! I guess this little thing is going to be named the Martian newt......"

"How big is it?"

"It seems to be 32 centimeters long......

"Good guy, if it goes on like this, the Martian dinosaurs will be resurrected sooner or later!"

"No, the oxygen concentration in the Martian atmosphere is only a little more than 8%, the nitrogen content is very small, and the carbon dioxide concentration is as high as 91%, so it should not be able to breathe on land...... Such a high concentration of carbon dioxide is highly toxic to life, and I remember that if the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere exceeds 3%, we will not be able to stand it......"

"Don't measure life on Mars with blue star life, the evolutionary environment is different, and the adaptability is definitely different, even on blue star, different animals have different adaptability to carbon dioxide concentrations......"

"That's right, the adaptability of life on the blue star is evolved according to the environment of the blue star, it is not a coincidence, since the atmospheric environment of Mars is completely different, then the life that must have evolved is also completely different......

He Xiao listened to the students' speeches and did not participate in the discussion.

After all, for him, there is nothing to discuss, this Martian amphibian, is exactly the entry task he has just completed.

Martian creatures have evolved into amphibians.

The progress is much faster than he expected, and the reason is that Martian life is far more powerful than he thought!

The terrifying photosynthesis and terrifying reproductive ability have allowed them to change the Martian environment much faster than originally expected!

If this continues, before the next Martian window, it may be possible to deduce the "creation" of Martians......
