Chapter 1030 Soil Eater (Part 1)
Looking at Xiaoxi's look of listening with a scrupulous look, Yang Yiwei felt a sense of accomplishment. He didn't give many lectures to Xiaoxi. Xiaoxi's strong logical thinking ability and calculation ability, even if you treat her as a person, she is a genius. Of course, there are no minor problems, but there are too few such shortcomings, and often it is not too much to affect the overall situation.
"It's true that this is true at the moment, but it's not like this for us, such as the thing you just stared at." Yang Yiwei shook the tablet in his hand. It was an animal's information. This animal is unique to the Shui Blue Star. It is similar to the earthworms on the earth. Its main ability is naturally to dig holes, but the size of this animal is not of the same level as that of the earthworms.
You say it is exactly the same as an earthworm, but it is not complete. After all, this thing is not like an earthworm, and it can survive if it is cut off and has a huge mouthpart on its head. Most importantly, its size, this kind of adult guy can be described as a giant.
Its body is also cylindrical, with a diameter of about two meters and fifty centimeters to three meters after adulthood. What is the concept of a diameter of three meters? The hole it makes can even allow cars to drive directly in. This thing is one of the few huge animals on the entire Shuilan Star. Of course, it is just on land and in the ocean. Even the voyage is not available for careful detection.
It only established a biosphere about 200 meters deep from the sea surface, but even so, the abundant species inside are far greater than that of the earth. The main reason is that the ocean area on the Aqua Blue Star is much larger than that on the earth. And the food this kind of insect eats is also very strange. It eats soil, yes, it eats soil! The process of digging holes is the process of eating soil, but this statement is not completely correct.
In fact, it does not eat soil, but the minerals, microorganisms, and things produced by the decomposition of animals and plants, as well as the roots of plants. In short, he eats almost everything in the soil, except stones and hard minerals. After eating these soils, its powerful secretion system does not even need to be excreted and will directly secrete the things in the soil through the skin.
A kind of mucus secreted from its skin that decomposes soil and absorbs minerals and other elements will directly stick to the soil on the channel it produces as it moves forward. After contact with the soil, these mucus will quickly form a hard shell, as hard as rocks. However, the thickness of this hard shell is not thick, but even so, this guy can be called an environmental damage machine.
It is almost difficult for plants to survive in the places where it lives. The ground will soon become a barren land, and finally form a terrain similar to the Gobi Desert. If there is no moisture, it will gradually become a desert. However, because of the large area of the sea, even the river basin on land is not small, and its special environment, there is no darkness in all parts of the planet, and the North and South Poles, it makes it surprisingly rich in precipitation anywhere in the world. Therefore, even if this thing harms the environment, when it completely harms the environment and moves the environment to the next place, the place it leaves will quickly become lush again due to rainfall, plant seeds carried by animals, and the reproduction of plants themselves.
On planets like this, there is abundant rainfall around the world. Without night, the growth of plants is unique. It is almost impossible to have a desert terrain. Even on the peaks formed by rocks, plants grow between gaps, but these insects can create a desert. The soil depth of their activity is still very deep, reaching a depth of about a thousand meters underground. Therefore, their range of movement is actually very slow.
"With this thing, when you transform it into a mechanical animal, we can even reach a depth of several thousand meters underground. Mining those scattered energy crystals is not a problem at all. It doesn't take too much time to mine those things. Then we have established a detection system around the world. Once there is crust activity, we will process the energy there at one time, and there will be no need to be so much trouble in the future. Although it will be a little more trouble at the beginning, management will be much simpler in the future." Yang Yiwei waved the tablet computer in his hand and said.
"Also, the energy on this planet can be used for a long time. Maybe humans will immigrate here in the future. If we dig holes at that time, it will be easier to attract other people's attention." Yang Yiwei shrugged.
"Okay, I'll show you what you said. We were really not very busy in the early stage. When the stalls are bigger in the future, the biological transformation instrument will definitely be very busy. At that time, the energy absorption will naturally be as good as possible." After hearing Yang Yiwei say, Xiaoxi nodded and agreed with Yang Yiwei's words. After all, what Yang Yiwei said makes sense. In the long run, Xiaoxi is indeed not as far as humans can see. Of course, this is also a matter of distinguishing people.
But who made Yang Yiwei sit in his current position for a long time, and his horizons naturally broadened. The Starfall landed directly on a Gobi Desert of about 100 square kilometers. On the Shuilan Star, such a Gobi Desert is difficult to see. It can be seen from the scanning system of mechanical organisms that the entire Gobi Desert is covered by dense caves. Yang Yiwei sometimes wonders, if this insect reproduction speed is fast enough, will it eat up all the planet?
You know, what they eat is not proportional to what they excreted. They can only excrete less than one-tenth of the thing, and all the rest is digested by its body. "By the way, what is this insect called?" Yang Yiwei suddenly remembered a question. This guy doesn't have a name yet.
"How do I know that this planet has no intelligent life at all, and these animals and plants naturally have no names." Xiaoxi was speechless.
"Uh, according to the rules, the first discoverer should have the right to name these animals and plants, right?" Yang Yiwei immediately became excited. The first people on Earth to discover planets and animals and plants, aren't they all named? Seeing Yang Yiwei's excited look, Xiaoxi didn't know what to say.
He rolled his eyes directly, and Xiaoxi said speechlessly: "I said, you won't be very interested in this, right? If you dare to be interested, there will be a whole of water blue star animals and plants to name you. If you want, there are about 7 million animals and plants registered on this planet, and you can name them one by one."
"Uh..." Yang Yiwei was stunned. He suddenly remembered that the planet in front of him had discovered by himself, and the species above could be named at will.
"Okay." After scratching his head, Yang Yiwei was speechless. It would be okay to name several types, millions of them? Forget it! But I didn't expect that there are more than 7 million species of animals and plants registered by the voyage now. It seems that Shui Lanxing has indeed had a complete system. You must know that the types of animals and plants on the earth, including microorganisms, are actually almost the same number.
"Well, since that's the case, this bug is called the Earth-eating Worm." Yang Yiwei shrugged and pointed to the fat white bug on the tablet computer.
"What a terrible name." Xiaoxi couldn't help but complain.
"I'll go, if I give a literary and artistic name, are you afraid that someone will scold me to death in the future?" Yang Yiwei rolled his eyes. He remembered a literary and artistic name, but if he thought about it, let's forget it. This thing will be recorded in human history. There is no doubt that if he gives a painful literary and artistic name, he will probably be criticized by historians by then.
"Tsk, if you can't get up, you won't get up. How come there are so many excuses?" Xiaoxi directly despised Yang Yiwei.
"Okay, then call it Krassinold French Comilitar." Yang Yiwei opened his mouth and spit out a new name.
"Uh? Where did you copy it?" Xiaoxi choked and looked at Yang Yiwei speechlessly. The name sounded high-end, elegant and upscale, but only a genius knew what it meant. However, seeing how Yang Yiwei said it was so fast and so determined, it was obvious that he didn't know where he looked.
Yang Yiwei almost laughed out loud, and he copied it from somewhere. The name just now was completely his random words. If you ask him to retell it again, Yang Yiwei may not remember it.
"As long as you are not afraid of being scolded to death by those who study history in the future, just call it that way. Anyway, you probably won't name the animals and plants on the entire planet. Just according to your name, I want to name the animals and plants on the entire planet like this." Xiaoxi looked at Yang Yiwei's expression a little strange, and immediately guessed it. She immediately blinked and said quickly at Yang Yiwei with a smile.
"Uh..." Think about more than 7 million such strange biological names. In the future, those who study history and biology will probably really scold Yang Yiwei to death. Yang Yiwei immediately sweated and blinked quickly and said, "That's better to call it the soil-eating worm. Simple and straightforward. Only the worm knows what the original worm was just now." Yang Yiwei shrugged and quickly overturned the name he had just named.
