Chapter 991 Excitement
Zhao Mai stood on the dark and lightless planet, watching everything around him fall apart. Almost all the mass and energy of the originally huge sun were converted into blue crystal. Without the largest source of gravity in the entire star system, the planets have all become wanderers and are bound to embark on a path of slow collapse.
"What a terrible magic." Zhao Mai looked at the huge magic circle at his feet. It was quiet now and looked very well-behaved, but the rules it contained could be called world-destroying levels. Without light, the most important source of energy for ordinary life is lost. Not all creatures can travel across the stars like a ghost ship. Before they master this ability, as long as the sun is extinguished, they will inevitably lose their future.
The temperature has begun to drop, and the vacuum of the universe has never stopped sucking in heat. Zhao Mai's Z insects did not dare to waste any more time. They had already taken action and sent a Chimera spaceship to teleport towards the blue crystal. The workers above would cut off part of the crystal and bring it back to provide sufficient energy for the entire group. Then, before the planet is thrown into the universe, the Z-worm still has enough time to collect materials, strengthen itself, and then lift up the entire magic circle and transport it into space.
With the blue crystal, the Z-worm's expansion speed can be increased thousands of times. This is not a linear improvement, but a geometric or even cosmic index improvement. It can be said that the starfish mothership finally has suitable "food" and has the opportunity to continue to grow and expand from a mature body until it becomes a planetary level. It can even completely replicate this magic circle on itself, thus being able to extinguish the sun and obtain blue crystals!
It is no longer possible to use a simple "blue crystal" to name this kind of thing. Solar blue crystal may be better. After all, it is the remains of the sun, or a product made from the sun. As soon as this idea appeared, Zhao Mai suddenly felt shuddering. Judging from the working status of the magic circle, this rule of converting the sun into crystal is not innate, but has obvious human intervention - it feels too precise to Zhao Mai, rather than the unique grace of nature. and original.
There was a flash of white light, and the Chimera-class spacecraft that went to "catch" returned. It turned over, and a piece of blue crystal with a diameter of a hundred meters fell down. It pierced the soil and made a big hole in the ground.
Before the smoke and dust dissipated, the entire Z-worm world was boiling. The violently proliferating soil is like an inflated balloon, pushing away all the surrounding soil. Wherever the shock wave reaches, the rocks are like the surface of a lake stirred up by big waves, undulating and swaying, and constantly breaking. Except for the Z worms, everything is there. collapse.
Zhao Mai took a deep breath, his eyes rolled up, and uncontrollable excitement arose from the bottom of his heart. Although his body is far away from the earth, and what is next to the blue crystal is just a projection of the green dream, the excitement of the Z insect group has already had an impact on him. Like ecstatic believers who selflessly sing praises to a great god, thus exalting the power of the god. It's just that Z-worm is praising himself, and Zhao Mai is "high".
Since the creation of the nervous system, the most fundamental happiness of living creatures and the greatest reward for themselves is food and reproduction. The moment Z-worm found the blue crystal, it was pushed to the extreme of happiness. Zhao Mai staggered a few steps, tried to take a deep breath, and called for his own reason and vigilance. If not, he would have blown up his body on Earth then and reassembled next to the blue crystal through the green dream.
"Calm down! Restraint!" Zhao Mai's mental storm descended on the planet, and the Z-worm's absolute obedience characteristics emerged. All activities were temporarily suspended until Zhao Mai issued a new order. "This is food, not a stimulant. Don't be addicted! Although it is highly concentrated, it is only the original energy of the sun. The Z-worm has a new way of eating and growing, but it does not obtain a new source of energy. The price of these blue crystals is the doomed destruction of a star system! If used in the biosphere, this is actually a failure!"
"Z-worms should be builders and integrators, observers and learners, servers and pioneers of constant self-evolution," Zhao Mai kept reminding himself: "Not a destroyer, definitely not a Nexus! This universe is big enough, and the space There are enough time and opportunities, there is no need to try to encourage others to grow, and there is no need to drain the lake to catch the best!"
Zhao Mai thought for a while and immediately implemented his will: the magic array of Sun Blue Crystal must not be used casually, and can only be ordered by himself. At the same time, the existence of this magic circle must be kept secret, but research on the blue crystal must not stop. He must understand how the blue crystal can be used, how it is dangerous, how it is safe, and the most critical point: who created that rule, and why the Holy Grail can restore the entire magic circle!
Zhao Mai took a deep breath. While gaining, thinking about the risk of losing, the balance between gains and losses, or the interdependence of blessings and misfortunes allowed him to regain his normalcy. With a wave of his hand, the Z-worm began to work in an orderly manner—hundreds of times faster than before, but without losing order. The passion that filled the Z-worm communication network gradually cooled down, turning from forgetful ecstasy to full-of-confidence happiness.
Z-worm colonies scattered throughout the galaxy have sent their own Chimera spacecraft to the blue crystal to take away the parts they need. The new construction plan is being deduced in the joint calculation of Gardener Dragon. Zhao Mai stayed for a while longer, watching the Z worms continue to divide the crystal and break it into pieces to drive the expansion of the entire group. They work like ants and bees, while multiplying and evolving faster than viruses and bacteria. Using the power of blue crystals for teleportation and the new generation of Z-worms have begun incubation experiments, and the abilities of many magical beasts were discovered by Zhao Mai from the blood bank. In the past, many abilities consumed too much energy and were not efficient enough. Now, energy no longer seems to be an issue.
When everything was on track and running smoothly and at high speed, Zhao Mai withdrew his gaze and returned to the earth. Hephaestus's golden ship is slowing down, and the girls of the Golden Zodiac are preparing for battle with weapons in hand. Vulcan held an apple in his hand and gnawed it, looking as ferocious as a bandit.
"what happened?"
"Finally ended the meditation." Hephaestus threw away half of the apple, wiped his mouth and said: "We arrived at the volcano, and a bunch of superhumans built some kind of town there. It's quite an obstruction. I'm going to push it aside. Flatten it.”
"Is it necessary? How much floor space does your workshop need? Can't even accommodate a town?" Zhao Mai stood on the bow of the ship and looked down. The so-called town only has twenty houses, and they are all like that. Temporary tent houses. However, there are twenty-four superhumans flying on the roof or gearing up to defend their homeland.
"How can I have mortal neighbors next to my workshop? How can this sacred place tolerate..."
Zhao Mai waved his hand and interrupted Hephaestus. You don't need to listen to know that it must be the relationship between gods and humans, with superiority and subordination. There is nothing new. "You want to build an anti-curse mirror, and I will be responsible for your safety. Therefore, as long as no one disturbs you, you can just work hard to create it. What kind of divine power can you show if you have nothing to do? Are you afraid that others will not know that the God of Fire is here? , are you thinking of a way to deal with the Death Star? If you think so, I can use a magic spell to let the whole earth know that you are here. But have you thought about it, what will Zeus think? "
"Forget it, let alone Zeus, I can't even pass Athena." Hephaestus waved his hand dejectedly, and the Golden Girls of the Zodiac also sighed to express their disappointment.
The golden spaceship made a circle and went to the northern slope of Mount Vesuvius.
