Main Text Chapter 589: Swallowing and Anti-Swallowing!
Just now in the Grand Ceremony, I saw the scene where the Tieyuan people and the Feixing people were at odds 5,000 years ago, but Xiong Wuji's words made Li Yao stunned: "What!"
"Tie Yuan Xing can't hold on anymore."
Xiong Wuji had no expression on his face, every muscle on his face seemed to be made of iron, "For five thousand years, we Tieyuan people have struggled to survive, multiplied and continued to expand, almost completely covering the eastern part of the continent under our feet. Occupy, it seems that the flowers are blooming and flourishing!"
"But in fact, we have reached the limit of expansion and reached the pinnacle of development. Next, we will go straight down to the endless abyss!"
"The key is resources."
"Every battle of Heavenly Tribulation will consume a lot of resources. Just to deal with this battle of Heavenly Tribulation, almost all the ore veins near Feixiong City have been exhausted, and so many war equipment and crystals have been refined. Bombs, all exhausted."
"The trophies harvested from the strange beasts alone are not enough to make up for it."
"Not only the Mad Bear tribe, but also the other five tribes. All the mine veins will be exhausted within a few decades. If you want to discover more resources, you must go farther to build new mining sites and towns."
"However, building new mining sites, towns, and maintaining the supply and transportation lines along the way will consume a lot of resources, and we must also guard against the invasion of monsters along the way. If you are a little careless, the gains will outweigh the losses!"
"The top leaders of the six major tribes are well aware of this matter. Judging from the current development model, we can persist for a few more decades at most. After seven or eight catastrophes, the oil wells will dry up and it will be difficult to continue. "
"Everyone is thinking hard about good strategies. Such as improving our excavation and smelting technology, and being able to collect ore veins deeper underground..."
"But no matter what the method is, it requires a lot of time and resource investment. Technological upgrading does not happen overnight. It often takes decades, even hundreds of years, and the unremitting efforts of several generations. There are still a lot of detours to be made. Disciplines are investing massive resources!"
"However. We have neither the time nor the resources!"
"The Egg of Heavenly Tribulation broke out once every ten years, forcing us to devote all our resources to deal with it, coupled with the usual monster attacks. We are exhausted to deal with it, and we have no extra resources to carry out basic research that lasts for a hundred years!"
"At first, I couldn't figure out why the Egg of Heaven Tribulation exploded in such a strange way, but after hearing what you said, Li Yao, I understand!"
"The outbreak of the egg of the catastrophe is a targeted 'technical blockade', which locks up the possibility of our progress in basic research. It forces us to invest all resources in the field of warfare, and it is set in accordance with it The war mode, go to upgrade!"
"When this 'upgrade' lasts for tens of thousands of years, we will waste everything in human civilization, and only be proficient in the war mode of the giant spirit civilization. Perhaps, as you said, 'us' will become 'them'!"
As Xiong Wuji said, his burly body trembled slightly.
Sha Yulan is behind. With both hands on his shoulders, strands of panic flashed in his eyes.
"I get it. I get it all..."
Xiong Wuji murmured, "In the past when I practiced in the illusion of giant spirits, I often wondered about one thing. The giant spirit warriors are obviously a race that only knows how to kill but doesn't know how to build. Why do they have such sophisticated weapons? Many weapons are made of special alloys, and the smelting technology is much better than ours, which requires a very strong industrial level!"
"Thinking about it now, this is most likely related to the 'Egg of Heavenly Tribulation'!"
"The eggs of the catastrophe, including the Zerg we saw in the giant spirit illusion, are very likely to be the production tools of the giant spirit war clan!"
"They herd Zerg just like we herd cattle and sheep!"
"They inserted the eggs of the catastrophe deep into the ground, and the eggs of the catastrophe would grow a strange 'root system' to collect the resources in the underground mine veins, and then bred a large number of strange beasts!"
"These strange beasts are the best 'metal processing factories', through wonderful biochemical reactions, remove impurities in minerals, extract the purest metals, and even combine several metals together to turn them into super alloys! "
"Not to mention, these strange beasts themselves are treasures that contain a lot of spiritual energy!"
"The giant spirit warriors will herd these alien beasts. When the time is right, they will let the eggs of the catastrophe explode, kill these alien beasts, and obtain the super alloys and natural materials and earth treasures in the alien beasts to arm themselves !"
"I guess, this is the survival mode of the giant spirit civilization!"
"Now, the giant spirit civilization is going to guide us to abandon the human survival mode and walk on their path!"
Li Yao took a deep breath, nodded repeatedly, and said, "It makes sense, use the eggs of the catastrophe to collect resources deep in the ground, use alien beasts to purify and fuse these resources, and finally let the giant spirit warriors kill all the alien beasts , on the one hand to satisfy their desire to kill, on the other hand, they can also get a lot of resources!"
"In this way, without any industrial foundation, a large amount of super metals can be obtained to refine invincible weapons!"
"Indeed, it fits the style of the Giant Spirit Warrior Clan!"
Xiong Wuji gritted his teeth and said, "It's not enough!"
"In the giant spirit illusion, I have transformed into a giant spirit warrior several times, hiding in some vesicles in the body of some thousands of meters, tens of thousands of meters, like a giant beetle, from a planet , flew to another planet, and started a new fight!"
"Perhaps, these giant beetles that can travel through the sea of stars are the 'star warships' of the giant spirit warriors. They use this method, like locusts passing through, devouring the past planet by planet."
Li Yao said: "I have experienced it too!"
Xiong Wuji said: "Perhaps, after tens of thousands of years, when all the Tieyuan people have been transformed into the new 'Giant Warrior Clan', they will also master the preparation method of this 'Starship Beetle' and use the 'Heavenly Tribulation' Egg' collects the resources in the center of the earth, concocts countless starship beetles, and then"
"Raging through the entire Flying Star Realm!"
Li Yao shuddered secretly: "Although it's a guess, it can be justified. Of course, the appetite of the Giant Spirit Warrior Clan is not as simple as just a planet!"
Xiong Wuji smiled awkwardly, and said: "Now you should understand why I risked the world's displeasure by proposing to contact the Flying Stars, right?"
"The inheritance of the giant spirit civilization is like a mass of thick ink, while our Tieyuan planet is like a glass of water."
"Put thick ink into a water cup, and it won't take long for the entire cup of water to be polluted."
"But the flying star human civilization that spread throughout the flying star world is like this pond!"
"No matter how thick a ball of ink is, if you throw it into this pond, it will be completely diluted."
"Then it's not the giant spirit civilization that transformed us, but our human civilization, which completely devoured it!"
"This is a war!"
"Perhaps the giant spirit civilization was extinct billions of years ago, perhaps its civilization is millions of light-years away from us!"
"But this is a war between two civilizations that spans infinite time and space!"
"If we Tieyuan people continue to be self-styled and unwilling to contact the outside world, then sooner or later we will be completely transformed by the giant spirit civilization, and will eventually affect the entire Flying Star Realm, and even human civilization outside the Flying Star Realm!"
"However, I believe that as long as we gather the strength of the Tieyuan people and the Flying Star people, we will be able to completely solve the mystery of the giant spirit civilization, and analyze all the supernatural powers of these 'eggs of the sky' to collect resources and manipulate strange beasts." !"
"At that time, we will completely swallow the giant spirit civilization, and we will definitely become stronger!"
Xiong Wuji's eyes were shining brightly. Even though he was just sitting on the big bluestone, Li Yao felt that the aura emanating from him at this moment was stronger than when he was fighting against the natural disaster level beast!
Spanning billions of years and millions of light years, a duel between two civilizations!
Li Yao was so shocked by this magnificent conjecture that he couldn't breathe.
He also deeply understands why Xiong Wuji, as the number one warrior of the Six Parts of Cheorwon and the strongest man on the Star of Cheorwon, would propose to contact the former "traitor" and today's Flying Stars.
Li Yaodao: "Patriarch Xiong, what are you going to do?"
Xiong Wuji pondered for a moment, then smiled wryly: "For thousands of years, the barrier between Tieyuan people and Flying Star people is too deep, and the ice wall cannot be thawed overnight."
"Actually, as early as one or two thousand years ago, the Flying Stars sent representatives to Star Iron to restore communication between the two parties."
"But at that time, the resources on the iron original planet were still relatively abundant, and our predecessors also made continuous breakthroughs on the road of refining Qi, from fifty levels, to seventy levels, to ninety levels."
"At that time, everyone thought that we could break through without limit all the way, and really break through one hundred, five hundred or even one thousand."
"Therefore, the seniors at that time categorically rejected the exchange request made by the Flying Stars and expelled them all."
"Later, there have also been many incidents where the starships of the Flying Stars crash-landed on the iron star."
"You know, the vast majority of the region on the iron original planet is full of rough oceans and dark continents, not all of which are under our control."
"Even in the area under the control of the Sixth Division of Cheorwon, there are vast expanses of wasteland, where monsters and beasts are rampant. We can only keep a few towns and transportation lines."
"So, the passengers on those starships didn't end well, either they were swallowed by monsters, or they were killed by wildlings from the Dark Continent."
"As a result, false rumors spread to the Flying Star people, who regarded Tieyuan Star as a restricted area for cultivators, and regarded us all as savages who drink blood!"
"This kind of concept cannot be reversed in a short while. My idea is to first send a delegation to the depths of the Star Sea to contact the Flying Stars and let them see what the Tieyuan people look like today. "
"If possible, we can also conduct some transactions, using the unique magical powers or resources of both parties to exchange!"
"After taking the first step and initially dispelling the guard, it's not too late to talk about the next large-scale exchange!"
"Li Yao, if you want, I hope you can join this delegation and act as an intermediary between us Tieyuan people and Flying Star people!" (To be continued)
