Chapter 519 Subterranean Creatures
After the chakra leaked from the skeleton lizard infected all the creatures on the island, those creatures weakened to death, and the lizards had no food source, so they self-destructed.
The few that Mo Nan saw just now should be the last skeleton lizards.
Those few had been beaten to death by Mo Nan. After Mo Nan cut off their claws, he healed the wounds and kept them alive. They had the pure chakra that was not polluted by other creatures that Mo Nan was looking for.
In addition to these skeleton lizards, Mo Nan also felt the chakras of some other creatures here, but they were all very weak. Mo Nan felt the places where these chakras came from one by one.
In addition to the skeleton lizard, there are indeed some other creatures here, most of which are species that do not exist on the ground, or creatures that are similar to the ground but have an unusually large size.
For example, a huge boar orangutan, a tiger, a rhinoceros, and even an unidentifiable species of bird?
These creatures are similar to the creatures on the ground, and another feature is that they are extremely large.
When Mo Nan arrived here, he noticed that the concentration of oxygen here is very high, which is normal. The specific gravity of oxygen is relatively high, so the deeper the place, the higher the concentration of oxygen, which may be due to the relatively large size of organisms here big reason.
However, the oxygen concentration certainly cannot have such a decisive effect. It may also be related to the meteorite whose composition Mo Nan cannot see for the time being, or its radiation may have affected the creatures here.
These creatures are all dying, because this is an underground closed space, and there are not many sources of food.
In other words, the only way for these creatures to obtain energy is from the outside world, and judging from their size, they are all too big.
Including the smallest birds among them, they are all above 10 meters in size, and it is impossible to fly out of the hole with a diameter of only 5 meters.The only one who can come and go freely here is the skeleton lizard that Mo Nan first discovered.
From the point of view of quantity, the number of skeleton lizards is far more than that of other creatures. There are dozens or hundreds of other animals at most, and even one or two at least.
As for the skeleton lizard, it seems that there must be tens of thousands of them. It is really unimaginable that there are tens of thousands of animals living in the entire underground space.
Mo Nan overturned the idea that the skeleton lizards came from other worlds. They probably lived in such an underground space, because the earthquake opened a hole, so they could go up.
But no, if they had been living here before and had no source of food, how would the ecology of the entire underground space maintain a balance?
In the lairs of other creatures, Mo Nan found a large number of bones of skeleton lizards, so skeleton lizards belong to the lowest level of food here. They obtain energy from hunting outside, and after multiplying, they are eaten by other huge underground creatures. They can barely last for a while.
The current situation is not normal. The skeleton lizard and other creatures never lived in this space, and it should be related to the earthquake.
When the earthquake happened, the skeleton lizard and other creatures were transferred here for unknown reasons.
Thinking about it carefully, the composition of the rocks in the entire underground space seems to be a little different from the surrounding ones. Although Mo Nan is not a geologist, but he flew down from the cracks above, and the color of the rocks suddenly changed abruptly. Still noticeable.
Not only those animals, but the entire space should have been transferred together for unknown reasons.
These huge creatures are almost dead because they have no food source, but Mo Nan is pleasantly surprised. It seems that the giant puppets he planned to use the huge psychic beasts to make can start to be implemented.
It is a little regrettable that although these animals are very big, they are just ordinary creatures, and they don't know how to use chakra, so they can't directly use the corpses of dead animals to make excellent puppets.
I can only find a way to save a few, keep the DNA of the living body, and then find a way to synthesize it with the psychic beasts on the ground to create the experimental product that Mo Nan needs.
In the end, the most critical question left is, where did these parasites come from?
The only clue is that the composition of this underground space is completely different from that of the nearby strata. Mo Nan squatted down and grabbed a raised rock, and broke it off forcefully.Difficult, these rocks are much harder than ordinary rocks.
If this space does not come from another world, then it can only come from a deeper stratum. Mo Nan suddenly had an idea, whether there is another larger underground space deeper in the earth, and that underground space has a deeper layer. A complete ecosystem, so there are skeleton lizards and other creatures.
The previous big earthquake should be an unknown earth change. Something happened in the underground space that was originally unknown how many meters deep, and a small space was pushed to a position close to the surface.
These creatures should have died immediately in the dark underground space, because there is no air and no food here, but unexpectedly, the location where this small space arrived was just hit by a meteorite, leaving a Up the tunnel.
At this point, Mo Nan can basically confirm that the meteorite is just an ordinary luminous meteorite, and has nothing to do with the mutation of these creatures.
Smaller skeletal lizards can climb up the tunnel, and the tunnel itself provides oxygen, allowing them to eke out a living.
Unexpectedly, because these creatures live deep underground, their chakras seem to have some kind of mutation. Once ordinary creatures infect their chakras, they will suffer a fatal blow. Therefore, these creatures have no food again, which is delayed for a few days. Then it was almost extinct.
Mo Nan looked down, and the only way to verify whether his idea was correct was to dig a tunnel down to see if he could find the underground world he imagined.
Mo Nan had previously designed a few puppets specifically for escaping from the ground, but they were not usually used, and now they can make the best use of them, allowing them to carry out excavation work.
However, the ground near here is abnormally solid, and the current performance of the puppets may not be enough, and some transformation is needed.
The first is the transformation of the core. The core regeneration core used by these puppets is still partly made by the most primitive tree clone. Now the clone has evolved several times and can provide more powerful energy, so they need to be replaced with new regeneration. nuclear.
With a new heart, the power of the puppet must increase again, but the supporting facilities for excavating these hard rocks must also become harder.
Mo Nan replaced the original digging tools made of ordinary ninja-grade metals with new digging tools made of high-grade ninja-grade metals.
In this way, the image of the digging puppet changed drastically, and its skill greatly increased. According to Mo Nan's order, he found a place that was pleasing to the eye and began to dig.
The hardness of the ground here is still beyond Mo Nan's imagination. Even with new equipment, the excavation speed is still limited. It should take a long time to dig through this underground space.
But Mo Nan is not in a hurry, anyway, these puppets have a certain degree of autonomy, but there is no need to control them when digging, no matter how long they dig, they just need to wait.
And the hard part should only be the underground space that was accidentally teleported here. As long as it is dug through here, the bottom is just ordinary rock, and the excavation should be much faster.
