How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 83 Surprised

【Hogu, I have good news for you. 】

Huogu, who still hadn't completely recovered from the bad news of the frozen planet, suddenly received this message from Ming.

Huo Gu responded to the message angrily.

"What good news can there be? So far, I haven't received good news once."

【Eh? Isn't it good news that the planet's glaciers are melting? 】

"What am I supposed to be, isn't it..."

"What did you say?"

[The surface glaciers are melting. 】

Min repeated the message just now.

"That's impossible. It's already completely frozen, and there is no new heat source. Why would the glacier melt?"

Suddenly, Huo Gu thought of something, and his tone became slightly serious.

"...Ming, you must have used the heat from the earth's core, right?"

Although Huo Gu didn't know the specific internal structure of the creatures on Ming's planet, since it existed in this universe, it must follow the laws of the universe.

Life is a low-entropy body that feeds on entropy reduction, and entropy reduction needs energy to produce it. In other words, life needs energy to maintain its own low-entropy state.

Life on planets should be no exception. For their huge bodies, maintaining entropy reduction is not an easy task. They need a huge energy source. There are only two such energy sources, the core and the stars.

Obviously, it is impossible to use a star as an energy source, so of course only the core of the earth remains.

If it was the Hadean period, the planet's heat would be surplus, and it would be okay to squander it at will, but now it is the snowball period, the Hadean period has passed, and the battle with Huo Gu spilled too much heat.

As a metaphor, a person who has been frozen continues to disperse his last bit of heat-without body temperature, he is a dead person.

Ming sensed Huogu's worry, and understood that it was going wrong, so he explained.

[Thanks for worrying, but I'm not stupid enough to squander geonuclear thermal energy at this time. In fact, the increase in the temperature of the earth's surface has nothing to do with me, I just noticed it. 】

"Not you? Where does the heat that melts the glacier come from?"

【I also want to know. 】

After thinking for a long time, Huogu didn't come up with any clues. After all, there was a shortage of information and intelligence, so he didn't plan to spend too much time on it for the time being. The melting of glaciers was good news after all, which meant that it had a chance to get out of trouble.

Now, as long as he communicates with Perpetual Sustain first, and tells him how to open the container that seals him after thawing, Hogu can see the light of day again.

"Permanent."

"Permanent?"

【Hogu, that guy seems to have thawed out. 】

"..."

The atmosphere froze instantly.

At this time, Eternity is suffering. As Ming said, it has returned to the normal view of time, but this is not what it wants, because in the normal view of time, there is no "God", and Eternity once again experienced the original time. A feeling of helplessness.

"It's terrible..."

"How should I go back?"

Perpetually touches the ice next to him with his tentacles. Through the tentacles, he can feel the powerful chill and the hardness of water solidified below zero.

"No, it's rare to come back, just go back like this, will definitely be very disappointed."

In the view of time when thinking slows down, Yongxuan knows Huogu's desire to return to the surface, and since he has the opportunity to come back, he will try his best to satisfy his desire to break free from the confinement.

Perpetually made up his mind.

Looking around, what comes into view is a world where ice and water meet.

Thanks to Huogu's original design, the collector's vision system, even in such a place without sunlight, can obtain environmental information by capturing weak electromagnetic waves such as infrared rays.

"The first thing is to determine your current location, and then get in touch with the nearest kinship, then connect the channel, integrate the power of all kinship, and break open that container..."

"what is that?"

While Yongshou was planning how to free the 'God' from the shackles, the infrared perspective captured the abnormal situation from the distant waters.

A large number of heat sources are interlaced and moving in the water. Obviously, there are a large number of life reactions there.

Perpetually was pleasantly surprised, the kind it was looking for appeared, which meant that it could save a lot of time and rescue the supreme will earlier.

It couldn't wait to swim over.

However, the moment it touched the life field and entered the channel, it regretted it.

"Kill! Seize their heat source! We will be the 'winners' and get the endless food there, no one will go hungry again!"

"Victors, slaughter this group of humble trash! Labor should look like labor! Anyone who dares to break the rules deserves to die!"

The dark-bodied collectors and the original-colored collectors fought hand-to-hand, and large groups of armed fighters fought with each other. They all held stone weapons and swung at each other with all their strength, striving to kill each other first.

They know that only dead enemies are the safest.

The two sides were completely immersed in the fight, and their attention was so concentrated that they ignored a completely unfamiliar collector and connected to the channel network of the life field.

Perpetually hid on the sidelines and watched, it would be a lie to say that it was not surprised, it was indeed frightened.

The two groups had about the same number of gatherers, but there was a slight difference in the weapons they held, rounded stones on one side and sharp stone daggers on the other, which made a decisive difference.

Because gatherers have no bones, they are molluscs, so as long as they are not hit hard enough, in fact, the damage received is not high, but the stone dagger is different, the sharp blade can easily disembowel the gatherers .

The large-scale fighting quickly came to an end.

It was the primary-colored foragers who won the victory, and all the dark-colored foragers were killed. Even though the defeated were begging, the victors showed no mercy.

"Pick up the leftovers, these are precious foods that must not go to waste."

The leader among the victors uttered words, and the 'remnants' in its mouth were naturally the corpses of this battle.

"knew!"

The victors responded in unison, which also included perpetuity. It naturally joined the ranks of the victors without attracting the attention of any collectors, as if it was one of them.

Pick up the corpse of a dark forager, and follow the victor's army on the way back.

At the same time, it was also secretly surprised at the changes in the group of collectors during the time it was frozen.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Yongxuan's heart suddenly tightened. Collectors rely on channels to communicate, and the disadvantage is that they can easily feel the other party's state and mood.

Once exposed, Perpetuity is very likely to follow in the footsteps of those dark collectors.

Now we have to cover up the past. However, it is very difficult for collectors to cover up, because the other party can perceive your mood and state, which means that when you lie, you are telling the other party 'I am lying to you' ', so that even if the other party is a fool, I am afraid they also understand that perpetual continuity is abnormal.

Fortunately, Yongxuan learned the art of two-handed speech from Huogu, although Huogu's original intention was to prevent it and Ming from having embarrassing things again.

"I'm just a little surprised..."

As he spoke, Yong Xu patted the dark forager corpse he was carrying with his tentacles.

"...they can lose so quickly."

I'm not lying, these are all true, and Yongxuan was indeed surprised that the dark foragers would lose so quickly. Although the number is similar, it is as easy as chopping vegetables for the primary color foragers.

Perfect dodge!
