Chapter 432 The shackles of life

There are more than 300 sea clams, not a few!

Looking around, there are no less than fifty sea clams that are more than ten years old.

If Su Xia were to search by herself, even with the help of a submarine, it would take at least a month or two to find so many sea clams in this vast sea.

During this period, you may also encounter some unknown dangers that exist in the sea.

But now, the big whale roared and brought so many sea clams directly to Su Xia.

"How is it? Is it a great gift?" The big whale asked proudly, feeling proud.

"yes!"

Su Xia nodded seriously.

If this is not a great gift, what else is?

The pearls produced by these magical blue sea clams are refined into psychic potions, which are enough for Su Xia to become the top creature on this planet, and even cross the threshold and exceed the known limits of this planet!

"These guys, I have known that they are here a long time ago, but I am too lazy to look for them because I can't digest them now, so I just keep them and let them grow slowly." The big whale said.

"Can't digest it?"

Su Xia frowned and then asked: "What do you mean? Can't you digest the pearls they produce?"

"Yes." The big whale replied.

"There shouldn't be such a problem." Su Xia said.

"I don't know what's wrong, but I just can't digest it." The big whale was helpless.

According to him, when the psychic age first arrived, he could absorb a large amount of psychic power, continuously evolved, and his strength gradually increased, gradually gaining his current abilities.

You know, before the advent of the psychic age, although he was huge, he was not this big.

Before that, he was actually only over a hundred meters long, and at its maximum it was less than two hundred meters.

"At that time, I was still very thin..."

The big whale recalled his past appearance, and there was more emotion in his voice.

Su Xia nodded slightly. He had read the information about "Moor's Beast" and "Revenge Whale". There were some blurry pictures, videos, etc., some in black and white, and some in color. It was possible to vaguely see the big whale's previous appearance.

appearance.

After the advent of psychic energy, the size of the big whale skyrocketed to what it is now.

"Not only me, that annoying electric eel, but also the sea dragon, the tentacle monster, and the others have all become much bigger after absorbing spiritual energy, and they are also smarter than before." The big whale said.

He originally thought that he would continue to evolve like this endlessly until his life came to an end.

However, one day just a few years ago, he suddenly discovered that he could no longer become stronger. It seemed that the power he had absorbed had reached a critical point, and no matter how much he absorbed it, he could not digest it.

He has swallowed quite a few aquamarine pearls, and he could absorb as many as he swallowed before.

But after that day, he couldn't do it anymore.

"Why is this?"

Hearing this, Su Xia pondered deeply and thought about the reason for this problem, but he knew very little about it.

His ugly clone has not yet evolved to the stage of the big whale, and has not yet encountered the situation that the big whale said.

"Sarah, do you know?" Su Xia had no choice but to ask Sarah beside her.

"Well, you should know a little bit." Sarah smiled sweetly and nodded.

"What's the reason?" Su Xia asked.

Outside the submarine, the big whale made no sound, and was a little nervous, waiting quietly for Sarah's answer.

Sarah smiled and said: "Captain, according to my records, the Zerg species, like humans and machines, will face a huge gap when their civilization reaches a certain stage, and it will be difficult to cross it."

"You mean...into the stars?"

After Su Xia thought for a while, she understood what Sarah meant, and also knew what the problem with the big whale was.

As we all know, marine creatures can grow very large, and the largest ones are many times larger than elephants on land, such as the blue whale over there.

The most important reason is that marine organisms can rely on the buoyancy of seawater to reduce the bearing capacity of their own bones.

However, the body of the big whale is so huge, more than 300 meters long, that it is suffocating. Even if it is a psychic creature and has seawater to help bear it, it cannot grow anymore.

If it continues longer, he will be crushed by himself and killed by himself.

"Am I going to be killed by myself?" The big whale was surprised.

"Yes." Su Xia nodded.

"What should I do? Will I be like this in the future?" The big whale is actually quite satisfied with his own strength. He has basically had no desires and demands in the past few years. He eats and sleeps, sleeps and eats, and has no other requirements.

If there is no way, forget it, but now, Sarah seems to have a solution to this problem, which cheers him up and has some vague expectations in his heart.

It would be best if we can continue to become stronger.

"Sarah, what do you think?"

"Captain, do you know Kraken?" Sarah asked with a chuckle.

"I know, the 'Titan-level' life of the Zerg, a giant beast that can swim in the starry sky." Su Xia nodded. He had heard the octopus monster Haidar say it before.

Kraken, beyond the sixth level of life.

Those who can travel in the starry sky are almost all Zerg creatures at level eight or nine or higher. They are extremely large and have a space of their own in their bodies, which can carry a large number of other Zerg life forms.

They are an important unit for the Zerg to carry out interstellar colonization, and each one is extremely powerful.

In Hal's information, there are many records about Kraken.

For example, more than two thousand years ago, on a remote civilized planet in the Imperial Star Territory, a huge Kraken suddenly arrived. After he arrived, a large number of Zerg creatures poured out of the space inside his body and established a planet at an extremely fast speed.

The insect nest stronghold almost caused the entire planet to be devoured by insects.

In the end, the Imperial Fleet took action, using a weapon called "Death Sound Wave" to forcibly kill the Kraken beast that had reached level 10, and spent a lot of energy to clean up the other low-level Zerg, thus saving the

planet.

In addition to Kraken, the Zerg and other Titan-level creatures, after growing to a certain level, can break through the limitations of the planet and enter the starry sky to travel, such as Behemoth, Sethus, Mogara, etc.

Their names are different, their body shapes, characteristics, and abilities are also different, but they all have a similar characteristic - they are extremely huge!

Their huge bodies can store enough energy to support them in starry sky travel.

Even the smallest Titan-level creature is nearly a kilometer long.

"But I can't grow up anymore." The big whale said sadly. His evolution has stopped, and his life level is limited to the highest level on the planet.

"It takes a certain amount of luck for the Zerg creatures to break through." Sarah said with a smile and a gentle voice.

"Is there any way to reduce the element of luck?" Su Xia asked.

"Yes, he needs to keep trying. He can no longer let nature take its course as before. He must have a firm belief in evolution." Sarah gave this reply.

"How to try?" The big whale outside couldn't wait and asked aloud.

"break the limit."

"breakthrough?"

"Yes, this is something other than luck. You can think of it as 'hard work'."

Sarah explained: "The universe is far colder and crueler than the ocean space you are in now. If you are not careful, you can easily encounter a life-and-death crisis. If you want to evolve into a Titan-level creature, you must break through your existing abilities."

limit."

"How should I break through?" The big whale still didn't understand and continued to ask.

"Put pressure on yourself and enter the most brutal areas of the planet to hone your skills. You can even try to survive on land for a while."

"Land?" The big whale was startled. "I am a marine creature. Isn't it just me seeking death if I go to land? Isn't it going to crush me?"

"Yes, as a marine creature, you are also seeking death when you enter the universe." Sarah smiled slightly, "This is just to activate your will to survive, hone your survival ability, and stimulate the evolutionary instinct in your body."

"This is too cruel..."

The big whale is distressed. If he does not continue to evolve and maintain his current body shape, it is actually quite good. Anyway, he is already the king of the sea. As long as he does not run into the underwater troops of humans or machines, his life is almost not in danger.

The Zerg's technology tree is different from that of humans or machines. What they climb is flesh and blood technology.

And this technology tree has always been full of blood and cruelty.

The octopus monster Haidar told Su Xia that in order to enter the starry sky, some creatures will evolve a closed and pressurized carapace to isolate themselves from the vacuum. When others enter the universe, their surface cells will enter a state of near dormancy.

Reproduce and divide to minimize damage to cells from cosmic rays...

"This road is so difficult. No wonder the electric eels and sea dragons are stuck, just like me." The big whale pondered. After listening to Sarah's words, he thought of the past hundreds of years.

For a long time, he fought against human whaling ships.
