Chapter 493: Star Beast Ruins

"Who told you that fossils are formed by petrification?"

Eve and Beef Ball began to have a "friendly" discussion based on the plasma worm fossil.

Han Youwei leaned against Fang Yuan, pondered and expressed her thoughts: "The plasma worms are all facing the same place, they should be fleeing in the same direction. But in the end they were buried in the ground and became fossils. I thought of a kind of possible……

"Do you think it might be magma? The magma gushed out from the ground, flowed through the cave, submerged the plasma worms in the magma, and finally all became fossils."

Fang Yuan nodded and said: "I also thought of this possibility, but I'm not sure yet, the situation here is different from the situation after the magma has cooled, and there is no volcanic ash."

"Maybe the silica content of the magma is too high, forming silica crystals." Han Youwei recalled the chemical properties of silica.

Although the crystals on the side of the star beast world are usually referred to as crystals, there are more than one kind of silicon dioxide crystals. In addition to crystals, there are several types of crystals such as agate.

These crystals can be collectively referred to as silicon dioxide crystals.

"I remember that to form silicon dioxide crystals, water is needed." Fang Yuan has focused on star power cultivation for the past year, but he did not return all the knowledge he has learned to the teacher.

"Well, there is actually an environment for the formation of silica crystals here. High temperature, high pressure, and high-purity silica, all that is missing is water. Maybe water has been washed here. Slowly dry up." Han Youwei said thoughtfully.

"There is indeed such a possibility. In the specific situation, we still need to take the samples back to the Academy of Military Sciences for research." Fang Yuan knocked out a few silicon dioxide crystals, threw them to Eve's MEKA, and put them on. in the sample box.

After collecting samples.

Fang Yuan used the advanced authority of the communicator, turned on the broadcast function, and reminded: "Keep moving forward, you may encounter magma, everyone be vigilant."

Zhao Anya answered, "Do you think these plasma worm fossils were formed after being engulfed by magma?"

"Yes, we all think this should be the case." Fang Yuan affirmed.

Beef Ball frowned and asked, "Swallowed by magma, wouldn't it be burned to ashes?"

"You want to burn the plasma worms to ashes at a thousand degrees? How much do you look down on plasma?" Eve complained.

"Continue to explore and see."

As Fang Yuan spoke, he took the lead and walked forward.

The further the team went, the more star beast fossils they saw.

Not only the crystal armor plasma worms, but even the spine-spine predators.

"I have seen this kind of spine predator. There are fossils of this spine predator in the Academy of Military Sciences. It is an ancient predator two and a half million years ago." Eve saw an ancient predator After seeing the fossil of the deceased, he suddenly became excited.

"Two and a half million years? You mean, there were star beasts two and a half million years ago? Is this possible?" Beef Ball scratched his head, feeling incredible.

"What's impossible? The era when dinosaurs ruled the land on Earth was between 250 million and 6500 years ago. A fossil of a star beast from 2.5 million years ago is not even a fraction of the Cretaceous period," Eve said.

"The star beast has evolved for 2.5 million years, why is it still so weak? How terrifying would it be if humans evolved for 2.5 million years?" Beef Ball immediately began to diverge.

"In fact, it is not necessarily true. Human civilization appeared 5,000 years ago, but the technological explosion was only 200 years ago. 200 years ago, human beings did not even have electricity. The leap of civilization still depends on the technological explosion. It is not as great as the progress of modern times in the past 50 years." Fang Yuan said.

"The development route of the star beast civilization is different from ours. The star beast civilization is not a technological route. It is not surprising that there has been no major progress in 2.5 million years. Dinosaurs have ruled the earth for almost 200 million years, and they have not developed into an advanced civilization." Han Youwei did. Just add it.

After she finished speaking, she quickly ran a few steps, ran to the corner of the cave, picked up a crystal fossil, held it up in front of everyone, and said, "Look, plasma eggs."

"Huh... If there are plasma worm eggs, then it should be certain that this place was once very suitable for the life of plasma worms. If there are only adult plasma worms, it can also be said that for some reason, the plasma worms were driven here But if there are plasma worm eggs, it means that plasma worms once laid eggs here, and this must be a suitable environment for plasma worms to live in." Fang Yuan took the fossils of plasma worm eggs and observed them carefully.

"If this is the case, 2.5 million years ago, the temperature here should be around zero degrees, and the upper and lower levels should not exceed 50 degrees." Zhao Anya made a judgment.

The group continued to move forward.

The further you go, the more surprising what you see.

The space of the cave is also getting bigger and bigger.

"I can't be wrong, this place must have been a dense area of ​​star beasts before, and this is clearly the lair of plasma worms."

Going forward, I saw a bigger nest.

I also saw the fossil of a giant thunder beast, which was disposed of in the lair.

The Thunder Giant Beast is a very powerful star beast. It is more than ten meters tall and looks a bit like a mammoth, but stronger and more ferocious. Its teeth are like two curved knives that can cut its prey into pieces.

next.

The group saw the fossils of the Rift Hydralisk again, and it was a group of Hydralisk fossils.

Fang Yuan couldn't help swallowing when he saw groups of Hydralisk fossils.

The Rift Hydralisk is a very dangerous star beast. An adult Rift Hydralisk possesses war-level combat effectiveness.

If you encounter a group of live Hydralisks, the result is really hard to say.

After entering the territory of the giant thunder beast, it was already more than 50 kilometers away from the exit on the earth side.

The temperature is also getting higher and higher.

The MEKA mecha started beeping the alarm.

"It's 500 degrees, it's already over 500 degrees." Eve reminded aloud.

"Can it still withstand it? I heard the high temperature alarm." Fang Yuan asked.

"This is a yellow alert. It hasn't reached the point where it can't stand it, but it's already a little dangerous." Eve replied.

Everyone in the team is under a lot of pressure.

Du Jun greeted: "They all gather near the mechs, and the ice-type abilities cooperate to control the temperature."

Among the twelve-member team, four have the ability to control temperature, two are ice-type, and one is heat-absorbing.

Fang Yuan turned back and said: "Eve, you can feed little sunflower some spirit stones, let it help cool down."

Eve opened a box of biscuits, broke off a piece, and said seductively, "Little Sunflower, help cool down."

"I'm afraid you'll be too cold to stand." The little sunflower parrot began to communicate.

"The words are getting stronger and stronger. You can stand it without freezing." Eve broke another biscuit and handed it over.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew up around the mecha, and the temperature began to drop, which relieved everyone's pressure.
