The alien invaders'...source of life?
"This substance, they call it—%*@."
The monster made a very strange, harsh and unpleasant sound.
"……What?"
Xu Xin and the other two were a little confused for a moment.
"That's what they call this substance," the monster said. "I don't know how to call it in human language either."
"Um...can you repeat it again?" Xu Ying looked conflicted.
"%*@."
"What the hell is this..." She gave up. "Forget it, can you describe what this thing is? Is it also a liquid?"
"No." The monster shook its head. "It's not liquid, it's a... solid. A red crystal."
"...Then you are vague. At this time, you have not been born yet." The monster twisted its neck, and the "muscles" under its body seemed to move rhythmically.
The monster raised its arm, which was longer than its leg, and stretched out its hand with only four fingers, and pinched with two ink-black fingers.
Their technology also began to grow exponentially.
"Yes," the monster nodded. "But even so, Earth is still the first planet they've discovered in outer space that possesses the raw materials needed to create their life force. Even if they mine all the reserves they've discovered, it would only allow their species to survive for another ten thousand years at most."
I see……
"First, the planet itself is suitable for them to survive. That small area underground is filled with a terrifying substance that can condense them—water. The air also contains water molecules. In some areas, it rains whenever there is movement. The small areas outside of that are difficult for them to survive. For them, Earth is like a planet with a very harsh environment."
Neither of them had ever seen this scene in Duan Zhensheng's memory.
……What?
"Because of the strategic importance of Earth, this crystal was concentrated by almost all of Xu Xin's spare resources. At most, it can't allow those people to survive there for a few thousand years. That's why they only need to absorb a little, which is enough to meet their needs for a day."
"This... this is the first time I've heard of this," Xu Ying said, feeling very curious. "Is this the source of your energy? Don't you need to eat?"
According to the number of creatures on the planet and the rate of increase in damage at that time, the remaining source of life on the planet, even if all the resources in various strange locations around the world are exhausted, it will not even last for seven hundred years according to the time unit on Earth!
"Does he need Shi Wanyun as the source of life?" asked Hong Shuijing.
"An experiment to create a completely new biological race." The monster's eyes opened slightly on their own accord. "You must create a race... that will accept you."
"...Hmm? Wait a minute, that incident must have happened long before the invasion of Earth, right?" The mother planet suddenly felt a sense of truth. "Surely, Earth doesn't have their source of life beneath the surface. Then why haven't more alien creatures immigrated to Earth during the eight hundred years you were enslaved?"
"Eat? Do you mean, eat other creatures like you do on Earth? No..."
"The seventh point is not this crystal."
"Oh..." Duan Zhen immediately understood, "Doesn't that mean they need to transport the white crystal mined from the earth to their Xu Xin?"
Before creatures spread all over the world, even without a food chain, hostile relationships still appeared.
But when they arrived, they discovered the most exciting substance under the planet.
Indeed, from the monsters' mouths, we can learn that the alien invaders survive by gnawing on the "stones" laid by them, so they don't need a sense of taste at all.
That amount of information is a bit too much to digest.
That's no small problem.
At the same time, science
Scientists have tried every possible way to research and synthesize it, but have not found any substitutes.
At this time, according to the Earth's time unit, it has been less than 20,000 years since now.
Xu Ying was amazed.
Can only live another seven hundred years?
"...Could it be that the white crystal under the earth has nothing to do with their Duan Zhensheng?" the mother planet also asked.
The material that makes up the surface of the planet?!
The creatures on the star that had experienced the world war had increased in number, and their consumption of the "source of life" was slightly slowed down, leaving them with no more time.
"A race that is half Earth human, half Xu Xin human." The monster said without any concealment.
But none of the eight people spoke. Instead, they looked at the monster, wanting to hear what it had to say.
Lower intelligent creatures are always prepared for danger.
…
"...You are one of them, you are just collaborating with them to realize your experiment."
"What about him?" asked Red Crystal. "Is he eating too? Remember, when you first saw him, he seemed to be...drinking something from a cup."
At the same time, scientists are crazy about studying the human cerebellum, because with such a small cerebellum with such huge potential, the technological development of their race may be restarted after 20,000 years!
"The race that can accept him is..." Xu Ying vaguely guessed something, but I didn't dare to say it.
But the victims are us humans, so that's something to talk about.
It seems that my imagination is still a little poor.
They have to go into outer space to find resources and the source of life they need.
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
