Chapter 532, Flowing Moon Galaxy

The moon galaxy on the other side of the starlight, this moon galaxy is a rather peculiar galaxy. There are a lot of asteroids, meteorites, etc. in the entire galaxy, almost all over the interior and exterior of the entire galaxy. On the contrary, the number of large planets is very rare. There are only a few.

You must know that this is the other side of the starlight, the most prosperous star field in the entire Orion spiral arm, a place as bright as a pearl, there are at least a dozen large planets in any galaxy, and there are generally several living planets .

After the Moon Galaxy was first discovered by the Empire, it caused the Empire’s astronomers to conduct some in-depth investigations and research. In the end, they could only come to a conclusion that most of the large planets in the entire galaxy were split due to some unknown reason. into countless asteroids, meteorites and the like.

These extremely large number of asteroids, meteorites, etc. formed a huge asteroid belt in the galaxy, because it was formed after the split of many large planets, so the asteroid belt of the Liuyue galaxy is compared with the asteroids of the solar system. The belt is even bigger, and the number and quality of asteroids it has are also far beyond the asteroid belt of the solar system.

The name of the Liuyue galaxy is also derived from this. On the only living planet in the Liuyue galaxy, when looking up at the starry sky at night, a huge number of asteroids, meteorites, etc. have formed a line completely composed of particles of different sizes. A galaxy composed of one moon is like a galaxy, so it is called Liuyue galaxy!

From the inside to the outside, there are more than ten asteroids, meteorites and other asteroid belts in the Liuyue galaxy. The asteroids and meteorites in the asteroid belt are densely covered, and they often collide with each other, forming terrible impacts. , From time to time, asteroids, meteorites, etc. deviate from their own orbits and become existences similar to comets.

In a void in the asteroid belt, a spherical creature floats in the void. Its diameter is over a thousand meters. It is a large silicon-based creature with more than a dozen tentacles swinging gently in the void. , It actually caused a slight fluctuation in the space, which rippled continuously like ripples.

As the tentacles swayed, its speed began to soar, reaching a terrifying speed of tens of kilometers per second, like a spaceship.

The metal-rich asteroids around him seem to be unable to attract its attention. In normal times, these metal-rich asteroids are definitely its favorite, even if it is a bloody battle with other silicon-based creatures. Flow will never give up easily.

In the void directly in front of it, a large spaceship slowly flew over, and while flying, metal blocks, metal balls, metal rods and other things appeared in all directions.

The silicon-based life in the surrounding area is like a flock of chickens scrambling for food. One by one, groups of scrambled to fly over from all over the asteroid belt. Not afraid of their natural enemies, they are very bold and swarm over in groups.

The medium-to-large silicon-based creature swallowed the metal block in one gulp, then retracted its tentacles, turned into a ball and began to sleep and digest while floating in the void.

Small and tiny silicon-based organisms gnaw around metal blocks in large numbers. Although they are huge, they can't eat much metal. They eat up quickly and leave in groups to find a piece of metal. The large asteroid got in, lay down among the asteroids and began to sleep and digest.

The calm void became very lively, the spaceships flew slowly in the void like breeders, and the silicon-based creatures in the nearby void seemed to be starving swarms, swarming and scrambling frantically , the scene was very lively.

"These silicon-based creatures are really crazy about metals."

Inside the spaceship, Li Fu watched with great interest the silicon-based creatures that were grabbing food in the void. These silicon-based creatures were brought back by Sun Xinyuan from the Sculptor galaxy 1200 million light-years away. They are rare, and only a dozen of each species have been brought in for several years.

Coupled with the long interstellar journey, it is inevitable that some will die, so the number that finally reached the Milky Way is not many. The research side of the Imperial Academy of Biological Sciences raised these silicon-based creatures in the Liuyue Galaxy. The Liuyue Galaxy is blessed with a unique environment. Great for growing silicon-based organisms, plus the population regularly feeds on metal.

The population of silicon-based organisms has grown rapidly, and their quality has also been greatly improved. As long as these miraculous silicon-based organisms are properly fed with metals, their growth rate is astonishing. In just a few years, they can grow from It grows from only a dozen meters in diameter to thousands of meters.

"Metals are the most delicious food for these silicon-based life forms, and they are also the food that can promote their evolution and growth. The only pity is that we have not yet developed a method that can allow large-scale silicon-based life to evolve to king-level life. Metal set recipe."

Next to Li Fu, Li Shu, a top scientist in the field of biological science in the empire, said with a wild smile.

As Sun Xinyuan successfully brought back silicon-based organisms, the biological scientists of the empire were also ecstatic, and quickly launched various researches on silicon-based life. And temporarily putting aside various ideas are also carried out one after another, and the empire's biological science and technology are once again used for explosive growth.

"Ancestor, look, this silicon-based creature that looks like an octopus, we call it a stone octopus, has a very ferocious temperament, and it preys on other small, medium, and even large animals that are about the same size as itself. Silicon-based organisms feed."

Li Shukang rarely had the opportunity to be with his ancestors, and he also became a tour guide with great interest at this time, pointing to a silicon-based creature in the void that was constantly waving its tentacles and introduced.

"It actually caused fluctuations in the space. It seems that their tentacles should directly apply force to the space. Otherwise, the speed would definitely not be so fast, and it must not be so flexible. The acceleration and deceleration are so fast, tsk tsk, everything in the universe It’s amazing, it really is our best mentor.”

Next to Li Fu, Yu Liang, who accompanied Li Fu, widened his eyes, saw the space ripples in the void like water waves, and saw the principle of the movement of silicon-based creatures at a glance.

"Old Yu has good eyesight. According to our research on silicon-based organisms, these silicon-based organisms basically have things like tentacles. These tentacles are the most efficient and advanced space engines. They have a huge impact on our empire's research on space engines. Inspired by it, it is said that it has achieved leapfrog development now.”

Li Shukang gave Yu Liang a thumbs up and said.

"Xiao Li, stop praising him. If you praise him any more, his tail will go up to the sky."

Chen Bin smiled and shook his head.

"Haha~"

Chen Bin's words made everyone present couldn't help laughing, only Yu Liang blew his beard and stared at Chen Bin.

"Tch, which one of you saw it first? No, I won't tell you, you definitely don't know."

Yu Liang pursed his lips and said in dissatisfaction.

"Old Yu, you have sharp eyes."

As a junior, Li Shukuang was naturally very smart to give Yu Liang a step down, and then pointed to a huge asteroid in the void and said.

"Everyone look at this asteroid that is flying towards us rapidly. It is not a silicon-based organism, but it looks as flexible and fast as a silicon-based organism from the outside."

"This is a relatively peculiar species of void queen bee among silicon-based creatures. This void queen bee is similar to the bee colonies we usually see. They are all in groups, small in size, and large in number. There is a queen bee with many Worker bees live together."

"However, the difference from the bee-like creatures on the planet is that these void queen bees have a very ferocious temperament. They mainly prey on other silicon-based creatures in groups. the hollowing out of species, and use it as a hive."

While listening to Li Shukuang's introduction, everyone looked into the void, reminding that the huge honeycomb composed of asteroids was advancing rapidly in the void. They went to fight for the metal block, but they had to dodge it. Obviously, the power of the Void Queen Bee has been deeply embedded in the genes and memories of these creatures.

When the huge honeycomb got closer and closer to the spaceship, countless void queen bees flew out of the honeycomb. These void queen bees were slightly different from ordinary silicon-based creatures. They turned out to be one of the few One of the silicon-based creatures without tentacles.

Instead, there are transparent wings. There are a large number of wings, and they are distributed irregularly everywhere on the body of the Void Queen Bee. They are lightly stirred at will, causing ripples in the space, and the speed is extremely fast. In a short period of time, It accelerates to a speed of hundreds of kilometers per second.

A large number of void king peaks formed groups in the void, like a well-moved army, flying towards the area where the metal blocks were densely packed in several ways in the void.

The many silicon-based creatures that were scrambling for food in the void quickly fled in all directions as if they had seen something terrible. Only a stone octopus with a diameter of several kilometers remained indifferent. It seemed not afraid at all. These Void Queen Bees are still devouring metal blocks constantly.

"It seems like a good show, the stone octopus and the void queen bee are ferocious silicon-based creatures. When we feed metals, wars often break out. They can be regarded as the top among silicon-based creatures, and they are at the top of the food chain. The top, never giving way to each other, is a natural enemy and a competitor."
