Chapter 527: Chapter 528 The Sea of Fire
"This is a habitable planet with liquid water, and it has initially evolved the planet's own ecosystem."
"At present, it is certain that the ecosystem has evolved to the plant stage, and no trace of animals has been found, so we have reservations."
"That is to say, it's not civilization?"
The leader of the cluster asked that this is not only an individual's problem, but also a question of collectors in other channels.
"It seems so so now."
"So what's wrong with the spots we observed? It's not man-made, is it a natural result?
Some collectors asked again, this question is what they are more concerned about. The situation of light spots is too rare. After colonizing so many star systems, the collectors found that they have only seen a similar light spot phenomenon on the imperial home star Selene, and it is difficult not to let them connect the two together.
Now the same clans who go there to survey say that there is no civilization, and they will believe it, but they will not believe it unconditionally. They need to know what causes the planet's light spot.
At this point, the collectors who went to the investigation have already investigated clearly. It is because the investigation is clear that it can be 100% sure that it will report its findings to its peers.
"It's natural. The true face of the light spot is the burning of a large area of flame on the surface. The plants on the planet are very lush, among which the proportion of oil-rich plants is very high, and the proportion of oxygen in the air is constant at more than 80%."
"The three laws of combustion, combustibles, ignition points, and oxygen, two of which have been collected. All you need is a flash of lightning, or just a small spark, to form the surface spots we observe in the universe."
"What about the resources on that planet? Is there any value specially reserved?"
The cluster leader asked that this question is directly related to the fate of the planet in the near future. If there is no value, it will be dismantled by the collectors and become part of the resources they build in the star system.
However, strictly speaking, collectors do not want valuable planets to be dismantled, because such planets are very rare. If the planet that can nurture civilization is a diamond, the planet with an ecosystem is gold, which is essentially different from other inanimate planets.
"Although it only developed to the plant stage, it is much better than other inanimate planets. It's too rare."
"I think it is worth preserving and observing if it does not have much impact on the colonization of the stellar system."
"I know." Cluster leaders silently marked the planet, which only developed the ecosystem to the plant stage, as a non-disassembly object.
After the report communication, the collector on the livable planet relaxed a little, but this relaxation brought disaster to it.
"It's finally the end of the tedious report..."
"Be careful!"
"Huh?" The collector was stunned.
Hearing the warning from his peers to himself, the crisis came quietly to him before the collector could react to warn him of something.
Boom--!
A heat wave hit, which was the flame of the red lotus hell. They swept everything like a flood of the dyke. In a blink of an eye, there were hundreds of miles of seas of fire.
The picture above the sea of fire is twisting, and even the air is trembling in front of such a heat wave. The thick smoke rises from the burned plants to the atmosphere, dyeing the whole sky black, and the clouds covering the clear sky.
They are the top masters of the planet and the natural enemies of plants!
In such a sea of fire, three organisms jump out from the bottom to the top, unfold the membrane wings, and then the rising air flow formed by the heat wave soars high in the sky.
One of the collectors still had lingering palpitations.
"It's so dangerous! It scared me so much that I almost thought I was going to die!"
"I told you earlier that don't do two things when exploring the planet. It's not safe to do that. It's quite sad to die meaninglessly."
"Fortunately, we put this protective mezzanine on ourselves early to prevent flames.
Otherwise, we will be dead."Considering the sea of fire on the surface of the planet, the collectors adjusted the structure of their organisms and added an additional layer to their surface. The interior of this layer is an organic insulation material similar to foam plastic, with a high thermal insulation coefficient and a built-in solid helium packaging box to cool the organism.
Through the high-speed circulation of body fluids, the temperature of organisms is constant in an interval value. It can be said that swimming in the sea of fire for a while is not a problem. In the eyes of plants, it is like a sea of fire. In the eyes of natural disasters, it is not so horrible in the eyes of collectors, because they have seen a more horrible, higher temperature, and even the ground can melt. .
Of course, all this is based on preparation. Without preparation, the amino acids that will undergo material degeneration will occur with one hundred degrees alone, and the collector can't withstand the high temperature of the sea of fire.
Looking at the sea of fire below, the collector couldn't help sighing.
"Well, this planet is simply an explosive barrel, burning at a little, thanks to the fact that these plants can grow so tall."
From the perspective of collectors, plants should not evolve so tall. should develop horizontally as flat as possible, because the probability of survival will be relatively high, and the vitality of plants is very tenacious. They can completely achieve amputated limbs and rebirth. Life.
Because the collector, who was shocked by the matter just now, pondered for a while and then proposed.
"Let's use rhizomes to explore next time? As long as it is expanded deep enough, it will not affect the surface ecosystem, and it is also easy to observe.
"It's too dangerous to explore individually like this. We don't have to take such a risk."
Hearing this, the other two collectors also agreed to the proposal after thinking for a while.
"I agree."
The collectors flew to their station, where there was a circle of fire isolation belts that had been built earlier, which can be said to be the only place on the planet that is not threatened by the sea of fire.
After flying for a distance, suddenly one of the collectors looked at the large plant debris dumped below, as if he felt something.
"I think our previous inference is likely to be wrong. It is not caused by lightning or Mars that ignited the forest, but by the kind of plant we just came into contact with. The purpose of it is to kill other plants to create a better living environment for its own race."
"But other plants are not vegetarian. Some of them have strong heat resistance, and some have far better sowing ability than other plants, so plants have not been extinct by that kind of flame plant, and the flame plant just completes the missing part of the ecosystem. Large-scale combustion can consume a lot of oxygen and become Carbon dioxide is beneficial to plants.
"Plants can actually evolve the ability to ignite. I have never seen such a strange evolutionary direction. It is necessary to study it in depth."
