Inside the tent, Cang Xu continued to chat.
"I serve the Shata family and have lived in desert oases for decades. The desert is short of water, and there are particularly dry seasons of the year. Most of the oases will dry up or even disappear."
"And in our place, there is a kind of red frog. It will bury itself deep in the ground, drink as much water as possible, and its body will become several times larger, storing as much water as possible."
"Then, when the drought came, they were motionless, like bears hibernating."
"At this time, they are very fragile. They have no ability to move at all. At the same time, their bodies have stored too much water, causing their skin to swell and become very fragile and thin."
"However, it is precisely because of this change that this red frog can survive the dry season. But beasts that are much stronger than them are buried in the sea of sand."
"That's the charm of nature, and the red frog has found its place in nature. It has a strong ability to survive, but it's fragile at the same time."
"It has done its best to survive in nature. It has no way to grow claws, wings, etc. The more powerful the organ, the more nutrients it needs to grow. The more sophisticated the tissue, the longer it takes time to evolve.”
"The competition in nature is very cruel and the pressure is huge, and species such as the monkey-tailed brown bear and the white-boned deer will not evolve."
"If the environment is very relaxed and there is no pressure to survive, the creatures will be lazy, fat, and leisurely, and there will be no such powerful life forms as monkey-tailed brown bears and white-boned deer."
"Such species can only be man-made."
Zidi sighed deeply: "I have been taught, Mr. Cang Xu, your knowledge truly admires me."
Needle Jin nodded and agreed.
Spirulina had already heard Cangxu's analysis, and now he echoed: "If it wasn't for Mr. Cangsu, we would have died in that desert long ago."
Cang Xu continued: "Of course, all of this is just my conjecture. I have no evidence to prove it. But I am almost certain that these weird beasts must not be created by nature. In addition to the possibility of being man-made, it may also be because Species mutation caused by a certain mineral, spell aftermath."
Spirulina couldn't help but ask: "So who can create so many magical beasts? Which big man in the empire? Is it a god? Only gods have the power to create things, right?"
Zidi shook his head slightly: "Mage is also possible. As far as I know, legendary mage can transform and manage half planes. Isn't this imitating the creation of gods?"
Cang Xu sighed bitterly: "Maybe it was a legendary archmage, or maybe a god in the upper echelons of the empire, who set up his experimental field for creation here. This island is not small, but it has never been discovered. It's actually very close to the route of the pigsnout. We were able to land on this island because the shipwreck happened, it was completely accidental."
Spirulina's face couldn't help but turn pale: "This island is too scary. How powerful is it to be able to hide this island and create so many monsters!? He wants to kill us more than crushing ants. Easy. Strange, why didn't he just destroy us? We discovered his secret!"
Cang Xu whispered: "Maybe he is not on this island for a while, he is out? Maybe he doesn't care at all, our every move is under his supervision. He watched us struggle here, as a kind of Fun. When we're about to successfully escape this island, it'll cause him to take action."
Spirulina couldn't help but lose his temper: "Aren't we dead?!"
For a time, the atmosphere in the tent was quite heavy.
In the face of this great existence, any escape plan, or even the ambition of the young knight, is a joke.
After a long time, Zhen Jin let out a sigh of turbidity: "Mr. Cang Xu's conjecture is shocking. But I have to say, it makes sense. According to this conjecture, we might as well continue to speculate that the changes in the landform here should also be man-made. . Then, Mr. Cang Xu, do you think this is a magical technique to move the land, or a magic circle of teleportation?"
Cang Xu: "First of all, I personally think that the changes in the landscape are not aimed at us. It is too easy for a great existence to target us and destroy us, and there is no need to fight so much."
"Secondly, I prefer the teleportation of the magic circle to the magic."
"We experienced the changes in the landscape firsthand. The whole process was very fast, and in a trance, we were in the forest from the desert. This is very consistent with the description of magic teleportation in the book."
"I think the change in the landscape here is just because we were teleported, and the terrain itself has not shifted. Otherwise, it would be too expensive to move a large piece of land every once in a while."
"Of course, all of this is still my speculation. It's like ants guessing the scenery in the clouds, which is ridiculous and over-the-top."
"Finally, I think: the transmission mechanism that seems to change the landform is likely to be one of the measures taken by the owner of the island to maintain the ecology of the island."
Zidi blinked: "Excuse me, how do you judge this, sir?"
Cang Xu replied: "I have discovered that not only are we being teleported, but many beasts and beasts will also be teleported to new places."
A flash of lightning flashed through Zhen Jin's mind, and the young man thought of the group of scaly black panthers.
The scaly leopards should have lived in the jungle originally, but they came to the forest together with the boys and girls.
Here they need to develop new territory, so they first compete with the monkey-tailed brown bear, and then break down in the blade spider colony.
Zidi looked at Cang Xu: "If these beasts are also teleported, then maybe the owner of this island is to let them fight and pick out the strongest monsters. It's like the alchemy puppet competition held by the alchemy guild. To cultivate the strongest life weapon?"
Cang Xu smiled: "Lord Zidi's analysis is very reasonable, and there is indeed such a possibility. But I still insist that it is more likely to maintain the ecology."
"Don't you think that the natural balance of this island is in jeopardy?"
"Don't look at the vastness of nature, in fact, it has a fragile side."
"The Shata family hires the bishops in the Temple of Life every year to help them increase the production of crops. I have communicated with them, and I have the honor to consult with the wandering druids."
"There are various cycles of life in nature. In the simplest example, plants grow from the soil and are eaten by herbivores. The flesh and blood of herbivores becomes food for those carnivores. And the excrement of these animals , become the food for plant growth. After their death, their bones are digested in the soil and turned into fertility in the soil.”
"Nature is full of this cycle of life. Even the most powerful predators are compromised in the fight against each other, constrained by longevity, and challenged by harsh changes in the environment."
"The Shata family has had a continuous plague of locusts for several years. With the help of a Druid master, the root cause was found. It turns out that the reason why the locusts have grown in size and is difficult to contain is because there are fewer bread scorpions that eat their eggs. already."
"Why are there fewer bread scorpions? It's because in those years, the Shata family began to form a family's cavalry. They purchased a large number of chocobos, and when these chocobos were stocked, they liked to peck at Shashuo. the bread scorpion."
"The cycle of life is like a chain, one link is linked to the other. They affect each other, and once there is a problem in one link, it is likely to magnify the problem and become a catastrophic result."
Cang Xu said here, and the topic is closed: "There are too many monsters on this island, they are not formed naturally, for the ecology of this island, it is a huge burden to carry so many monsters. If you don't pay attention, The cycle of life is broken, resulting in irreversible disaster."
"It makes sense." Zhen Jin nodded.
He thought of the monkey-tailed brown bear.
This silver ferocious beast feeds on ore. At present, it obviously has no natural enemies.
If you let it survive, it will eat up all the ore sooner or later. The veins that emit heat have always played a major role in that area. Once eaten, it will cause dramatic effects in many other ways, such as plummeting temperatures.
But in the end, because of the teleportation mechanism, the monkey-tailed brown bear and the scale-horned leopard fought and died in the hands of Zhenjin.
The future natural crisis on the island was thus resolved ahead of schedule.
Zidi's thinking spread: "In this way, the reason why the owner of this island deliberately created jungles, mountain forests, deserts, snow peaks and other landforms is to restrain these created beasts, stabilize the ecology of the island, and maintain a natural environment. Balanced? But why do I always feel: He wants to filter out a monster that can adapt to all environments and has the strongest strength!"
The girl did not give up her speculation about biological weapons.
Cang Xu added: "I think that teleportation is only one of the measures taken by the Lord of the Island to stabilize the ecology. He has made efforts for this, and there are others."
"Like a fire venomous bee."
"Don't you think that this kind of bee colony was specially created by him, specifically to prevent the jungle and forest from being thrown into the sky?"
"There is also an environment where magic is forbidden. The environment here is strictly prohibited from low-level magic and fighting spirit, which is stricter than the forbidden magic ring in Sky City. This is not like a defense mechanism, because it is unnecessary to defend against low-level enemies. Instead, they are like shackles, preventing those monsters from exerting their own strength."
"That's why I speculate that this demon-forbidden environment is actually a measure to protect these monsters."
"Also ask for your advice, sir." Zidi took the initiative to ask for advice.
Cangsu said: "The magical beasts on the island are not naturally derived. Although their body structure is very stable, they are not in harmony with the natural environment. At the same time, the magical powers in their bodies conflict with each other, and they cannot smoothly absorb elements and form magic crystals."
"This may be the aspect that the Lord of the Island wants to improve. He has achieved the stability of flesh and blood, which is an amazing achievement. But the patchwork body brings about the problem of element absorption. He cannot solve it perfectly for the time being. ."
"The chaotic magic power is extremely unstable, and sometimes it will explode. Even if it is forcibly suppressed, it will cause magic erosion to the carrier. Let the chaotic magic power cause harm, it will be difficult for Warcraft to survive for a week."
"So, He created a special environment. In this environment, low-level magic and vindictiveness are prohibited, and these magical beasts are protected, their stability is maintained, and they are allowed to exist in the world."
"Lord Zhenjin and Lord Zidi should know more about magic than me."
Zi Di nodded slightly and fell into contemplation.
Needle Jin looked solemn.
He analyzed the current situation in a low voice: "On this island, we found bronze, black iron, silver, and even gold-level monsters."
"According to the current analysis, the gold-level chaos magic will also be successfully suppressed by the environment here."
"In this way, at least the Sanctuary level can freely use Dou Qi here?"
No matter how talented Zhen Jin is, at his age, it is impossible for him to reach the sanctuary level.
ps: I recommend a good book - "The Calamity of the Origin", which is also a fantasy and well-written. Even the most ordinary system must have a burning heart! There are already 270,000 words. If you are interested, you can go and have a look.
