Chapter 844 Tears of Sand Crystal (Part 1)

The evolution of living things and civilization is a process of adapting to the natural environment and exploring the truth and mysteries of the universe.

The evolution of organisms is mostly spontaneous, passively adapting to the natural environment through the talents inherited in the blood and the survival instinct of organisms.

The birth of civilization and the process of exploring the mysteries of the truth and laws of the universe are the process of biological groups actively seeking knowledge and transformation after having a stable material foundation.

This is a spontaneous behavior of a group. No matter how powerful an individual creature is, it cannot form a civilization. The academic community has already reached this conclusion.

But what anthropologists didn’t expect was this.

The key to the evolution of a third-level civilization to a fourth-level civilization is the basic material conditions required. In addition to various accidental factors, there is also an indispensable condition, and that is productivity.

What determines the intensity of civilization’s productivity is production relations and production technology, or...

Factories with standardized assembly lines are the opportunity to evolve higher civilization.

This is a vast, extremely turbid sea area.

In this sea area, a group of mortar creatures live.

The civilization created by this group of mortar creatures is a quicksand civilization.

The Quicksand Civilization has a long and long history, and it has been clearly recorded as being seven thousand years old. However, from the perspective of the civilization of the Star Curtain World, seven thousand years is not a long time.

Especially when this civilization of only seven thousand years has developed catastrophic weapons that change the laws and destroy the natural environment, it can be said that this is a flourishing civilization full of potential, and it has a bright future.

Living in this shallow sea of ​​turbid quicksand mud.

Nobody knows. How did this barren land, which covers an area of ​​millions of quicksand and mortar seas, come into being? Is it a law-changing weapon of ancient civilization or a miraculous creation of nature?

The creatures that live in this shallow sea mud call themselves Shayong.

Their will is strong and unyielding, constantly fighting against sea monster invaders that may arrive at any time in the nearby sea.

Their spirits are positive, and each Shayong has the highest goal of realizing self-worth. No matter where it is, it will do its best to complete its responsibilities.

Their political system is a referendum, and any adult Shayong has one vote no matter what position he holds, and this is regarded as the most fundamental right of every Shayong.

In this environment, the quicksand civilization strives to develop and thrive.

Goo-doo, goo-doo, goo-doo.

Endless turbidity.

This is the never-ending stream of quicksand and mud erupting from the bottom of the shallow sea, turning the endless sea into a tawny color.

"Impermanent Lord, please!"

Accompanied by a heavy voice, a creature that looked like a giant mire monster asked another Shayong in the shallow sea mire.

Adult sand swells are energy creatures. Although they do not have a fixed shape like flesh and blood cell creatures, through simple visual inspection of their daily forms, it can be concluded that they are a group of mud creatures about two meters high. They are lurking in the quagmire and taking action. Like a fish in water.

"The matter of Tears of Crystal Sand will be taken care of by me, so don't worry."

After this Sha Yong, who was called Wuchang Lord, made his promise, the Sha Yong on the opposite side showed a spiritual message of gratitude and trust, and then his body slowly sank into the shoal without a trace.

Mr. Wuchang was silent for a while on the sea, looking towards the sky.

Guaguagua...

High in the sky, countless blue sand gulls were flying.

This is the most valuable asset of quicksand civilization.

After these gulls swallow the food mixed with mud, they will excrete a special material called blue sand through their digestive system.

And these blue sands are the most important raw materials for making Tears of Sand Crystals!

It is one of the most important strategic resources of Liusha Civilization.

In this way, the sandyongs naturally become the protectors of these blue sand seagulls, and the two parties have formed a special symbiotic relationship.

Although he agreed to the other party, he still needs to think carefully if he wants to smuggle some sand crystals through special channels, especially since the quantity proposed by the other party is not a small amount.

in this way.

After Shayong sighed, his body gradually submerged into the yellow-brown mud and disappeared.

The endless turbid sea followed Mr. Wuchang to the deep cement pond port.

The nearby mud began to be filled with an unspeakable stench, which seemed to be highly corrosive. Mr. Wuchang continued to dive deeper into the sea. Every time he went deeper, the corrosiveness in the seawater became stronger. This was also the reason for the production. The price Sand Crystal has to pay.

About half an hour later, Mr. Impermanence came to a private laboratory.

"Drunkard, please!"

The man Lord Impermanence is looking for is named Jiu Laoguai, and he is the most famous boss in the smuggling industry in Nitan Port. But even he couldn't help but be surprised for a moment after seeing the amount of sand crystals Lord Impermanence needed.

"This amount is far beyond the scope required to cast the true body. Don't talk about me, even those gods will probably not be able to come up with so many sand crystals in a short period of time. Besides, the military department Although you acquiesce to the existence of the black market, such a huge number of transactions will inevitably cause shocks to the black market in a short period of time. Do you really think that those military bosses are nothing?"

The drunkard was silent for a while, and finally couldn't help but burst out.

It continued: "I think the only rebel organization that can use this amount of sand crystals! I have long heard that they have made breakthroughs in time and space technology and are planning to build their own hyper-time and space platform. Mr. Impermanence, You shouldn't have joined them, right? Sorry, although we have some friendship, I don't want to have any connection with this matter, please go back."

After hearing this, Mr. Wuchang saw the old man Jiu's determination and left with a helpless sigh.

Staring at the back of Mr. Impermanence, the old man was lost in thought, but was soon broken by another visitor.

This is black water.

After a brief exchange of greetings, when the old monster Jiu learned about the other party's request, it was the same crystal sand and the same amount. It was shocked. Having been in the dark zone for a long time, it was keenly aware that the quicksand world was about to undergo major changes. .

A few days later.

The monthly lunar tide is coming.

At this time, the sand gushers will take a short vacation for themselves, because the continuous operation of major deep-water port factories has already seriously polluted the quicksand in the port, which is highly corrosive and strongly acidic, which is extremely harmful to ordinary sand gushers. Therefore, it is necessary to use the power of lunar tides to inject seawater from major ports into the deep sea trench current to complete a purification.

There is no way of knowing where these strong acids flow through ocean currents.

but.

It is often only at this time, because the quicksand in the port is highly polluted and has a strong acidic nature, that the pollution emitted by some secret operations in the dark areas has a greater chance of hiding from military inspection...

After all, the drunkard did not escape this whirlpool.

As a member of the Dark Zone, he can reject Lord Impermanence and escape from the Black Water, but as long as the Dark Zone has needs, it will eventually sink in the face of those giant hands stretching out from the abyss. There are too many things that it cannot do. conditions for escape.

Compared to the government's Blue Sand Factory, the equipment in Jiu Laoguai's laboratory can be said to be quite rudimentary.

"Nine hundred kilograms of blue sand is already close to the capacity of my equipment. Please don't break your promise and don't forget what you promised me before."

"Hmph, don't worry, I just want the Tears of Crystal Sand."

With a spooky voice, the old wine geek doesn’t have a choice with many functions.

Extracting sand crystals from blue sand is by no means an easy task.

Buzz!

Not counting the extraction and collection of blue sand raw materials from the feces of millions of gulls. Without this special raw material, even a civilization that has mastered the relevant technology will never be able to produce even one gram of Tears of Crystal Sand.

at this time.

The container carrying 900 kilograms of blue sand raw materials gradually sneaked into the ring-shaped core smelting furnace as the wine old monster operated.

And this ring-shaped core smelting furnace is the key to refining the Tears of Crystal Sand!

The utilization method and utilization efficiency of energy have always been key technical areas that various civilizations have been striving to make breakthroughs in.

Subject to basic materials and theoretical technologies, each civilization has different breakthroughs in energy utilization. For example, anthropologists have continuously upgraded the source of energy, and super-body civilizations have transformed energy into spiritual power that perfectly matches their own race.

Buzz buzz buzz.

The powerful pulses inside the ring-shaped furnace are erupting one after another, continuously increasing the temperature of the blue sand raw material and gradually transforming it into a liquid state.

The drunkard turned a blind eye to this.

It is concentrating on preparing the strong acid raw materials in the dye vat. Only with a perfect ratio can it imitate the Tears of Sand Crystal, which is closest to the strength of the military.

The rising high temperature in the annular furnace causes the liquid sand crystals to undergo further changes. They float in the container like raindrops due to gravity, and under the pulse light of the furnace, they emit a beautiful light, like Reflecting the essence of the laws and principles of the world.

Sha Yong, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but be completely intoxicated by such a scene.

It is really hard to imagine which senior great master, with great wisdom, discovered such a wonderful substance, and actually absorbed and imprisoned the power of the laws of the other world to form this substance, thus allowing the Quicksand Civilization to move towards today's glory. powerful!

It's just a pity...

Nowadays, this kind of miracle has been occupied by the military and has become a tool to enslave the people. Jihadists have the obligation to rescue the people who are oppressed by slavery from oppression!

Thinking of this, Sha Yong's mood obviously changed.

the other side.

The wine geek finally prepared the strong acid.

This is the most important neutralizing material for solidifying Crystal Sand Tears. Without these strong acids for neutralization, once the Crystal Sand Tears in the furnace are exposed to normal temperature, it will only take an extremely short time to completely sublimate and volatilize.

Nozzle, nozzle, nozzle, nozzle, nozzle, nozzle.

As the pulse in the furnace stopped, under the careful control of the wine old man, a small opening was opened on the blue sand smelting warehouse, followed by a dull sound as dense as rain. It was countless liquefied blue sand that naturally The sound of fluid falling into strong acid and solvent.

After these viscous liquids enter the strong acid neutralizer, they solidify into a crystal with a similar shape in a short time.

The whole process lasted several minutes.

During this process, a large amount of strong acid evaporated and was discharged into the quicksand bubbles in the deepwater port by the equipment in the laboratory.

However, because it was the end of the month, the pollution in the port was already very serious, so the pollution changes here were not noticed by the outside world.

"Huh, luckily I did not disgrace my life."

The old wine geek breathed a sigh of relief.

There were about ten kilograms of transparent body matter left in the strong acid container. Their shapes were like tadpoles, sinking to the bottom of the container.

Another mysterious Sha Yong used his powerful telepathy to absorb a drop of Crystal Sand Tears.

This is a transparent crystal of a slender tadpole with a head diameter of about one centimeter and a tail length of about ten centimeters. It looks ordinary. The only special thing is that no matter how much mental power is poured into it, it absorbs all the mental power like a bottomless pit. .

Immediately afterwards, this Shayong suddenly released an incredible amount of telekinesis.

The drunkard on the side was shocked.

With such strong telepathy, apart from those mysterious gods, he is probably already the top powerhouse in the quicksand world.

Bang!

However, after such a huge crystal that embodied telekinesis collided with the Tears of Sand Crystal, it still collapsed after just a slight touch.

"Not bad, not bad. Although it has not yet reached the military's first-level Tears of Sand Crystal standard, it is quite close. It is indeed much stronger than the counterfeit Tears of Sand Crystal on the black market."

Saying this, it actually turned the direction of the tear of sand crystal in front of it. As it gently touched the tail of the tear of sand crystal, with a "pop" sound, the lens shattered in an instant, sublimated and evaporated in an instant. , leaving no trace in the world.

This time, it was completely relieved.

"The special material structure of Crystal Sand Tears determines that the front of its head is indestructible and the tail is absolutely defective. If it is Crystal Sand Tears in the furnace, it naturally does not have this defect. However, with our civilization and technology, if we want to Tears of sand crystals condense at room temperature, even if the strong acid neutralizer is refined to the limit, this price must be paid."

The old monster Jiu lamented: "If we can refine the Almighty Tears without defects, it may be time for the quicksand civilization to move to a higher level of civilization."
