Chapter 3441 Evolutionary Research
What you can see is an endless expanse of white bones.
Locke never imagined that the so-called Land of Bones was actually an entire continent made up of the bones of countless creatures.
Locke doesn't know how many creatures were buried here.
But what he was more curious about was, where did so many biological corpses come from in this world, and what worlds did these corpses come from before they were alive?
The skeletons filling the entire world put a certain amount of pressure on Locke and his team, who were new to the Skeleton Continent.
Especially Gegeskull, this guy has been living in the Hungry Wasteland before. Although he has heard of the horror of the Land of Bones, this is his first contact with it.
Unlike Locke, who had a solemn expression, Lilith didn't show any worry or fear.
Also, with the casters' worldview and spirit of exploration, there may be nothing in the star realm that scares them.
"These skeletons should have been produced for more than 100,000 years, or even longer."
"The low magic environment in this world makes it difficult for us to use energy, but it protects these decayed bones from premature decomposition in disguise." Lilith picked up a piece of bone at her feet and said.
The creature from which the bone originally came is now unknown.
Because the bones accumulated on the surface of this land of bones are all fragments and dregs. There is almost no complete skeleton, so there is no way to know the original composition of these bones.
With a gentle twist of Lilith's fingers, a palm-sized bone in her hand turned into ashes.
These surface bones are highly weathered, but the bones deeper underground are better preserved.
If you want to dig out a relatively complete biological skeleton, digging to a depth of about a hundred meters below the ground is a good choice. (first published by Zongheng)
And what Locke is more curious about is whether the Land of Bones is really composed entirely of the bones of various creatures.
Deep underground in this land of bones, is it the Gobi ground like a hungry wasteland, or is it still composed of endless biological bones?
Lilith's research is still continuing. Since Locke and others entered the Land of Despair nearly a year ago, this woman has never stopped.
From the soil composition of the Hungry Wasteland, to the trace elements contained in the air, to the degree of evolution of flesh and blood tissue of survivors such as Gregor...
Now Lilith's research direction has turned to these skeletons.
To be able to achieve this achievement at such a young age, Lilith relied on her diligence and spirit of exploring the unknown.
This is also a quality shared by outstanding spellcasters in the wizarding world, but Lilith works harder than other spellcasters and is more obsessed with exploring the unknown.
Locke did not have the spirit of exploration like Lilith, and he was also not interested in the composition and year of creation of these bones.
Just leave the research to Lilith.
As the strongest member of their group currently, what Locke thinks about most is where they will go next and how to find a way to leave this world.
Unlike the barrenness and rarity of creatures in the Hungry Wasteland, Locke sensed several exploratory sights of unknown meaning shortly after arriving in the Land of Bones.
Since the energy concentration in the world of despair is extremely low, the survivors and the desperate in this world often fight head-on with each other full of primitiveness and violence.
Most of those who cast their sights have achieved amazing achievements in the field of passive evolution.
There was also a desperate man who had reached the peak of level six combat power, and Locke inadvertently looked at each other from a distance.
Although the desperate man left quickly and showed no intention of fighting Locke as an enemy, Locke, who felt a certain threat and instability, still felt that they should find a place to rest as soon as possible instead of like Wandering around like a headless fly.
"I think we should find a place to rest first and sort out our next actions in the Land of Bones." Locke said to everyone.
"How about going there?" Lilith raised her finger and pointed in a direction directly ahead, asking Locke.
Look in the direction Lilith pointed.
There, there is a towering bone mountain with a height of nearly a thousand meters, standing tall and straight.
...
The creature that lives on the bone mountain is a green-skinned monster whose strength reaches the level of a pseudo-desperate person.
Like the residents of the Despair World that Locke and others had come into contact with before, this ugly green-skinned monster with an indescribable appearance was also in a state of skin and bones.
Even though this guy doesn't have much meat on his body, his level of passive evolution is also outrageous.
Locke sensed that this guy was not as strong as the giant-tongued Kiss Ratan he had come into contact with before, but when faced with Locke and others trying to grab the territory, this guy actually put up a lot of resistance.
A month later, Towering Bone Mountain officially became the territory of Locke and others.
As a price, Locke consumed several recovery potions, and the green-skinned monster fled to nowhere after being injured by Locke.
In a world of despair, fighting, killing, and chasing are eternal topics.
Today there is Locke usurping other people's territory, but tomorrow there may be a stronger one coming.
Although there is only one aboriginal person on the Bone Mountain, the green-skinned monster, there are many powerful survivors in the area around the Bone Mountain.
Of course, the vast majority of those survivors are below level six, and only a few have it.
A level of pseudo-desperate comparable to or slightly inferior to green-skinned monsters.
These survivors showed no sign of the arrival of Locke, the 'new neighbor'. The longer they stayed in this world, the more numbness and indifference filled their hearts.
"Well, have you stayed in this world for too long? I feel a little uncomfortable maintaining a human form." Locke twisted his neck and said in a newly opened bone cave on Bone Mountain.
The bone crunching sound of "Beep, Beep, Beep" was heard, and then Locke quickly transformed from a human knight form of about two meters in the Wizarding World into a Destroyer transformation form with a height of ten meters.
After activating the Destroyer transformation, Locke stretched out his body comfortably.
The World of Despair has the effect of greatly strengthening and improving the passive evolutionary energy of living organisms. On the contrary, the human form restricts Locke's evolutionary development. Only the Destroyer transformation is Locke's current peak state in the field of passive evolution.
Locke changed his form just to make his body feel better.
Lilith, who was also in the bone cave, saw more things. She seemed to have grasped a trace of the evolution of creatures in this world.
She couldn't help but take out her crystal ball and start recording. The object of her recording was naturally Locke.
Compared to studying survivors such as Gregor who have lived in a desperate world for hundreds of years, Locke, a knight who knows the ins and outs of the wizarding world, is obviously a better research and observation object for Lilith.
