Chapter Eighty-Four Ecosystem! March!

Chang Minyang's scandal did not last long.

The deputy city lord was so worried about Chen Mo's revenge that he actually committed suicide out of fear of guilt after leaving a long article for Jiarui Xiaohuawu.

Chen Mo, who planned to ask the deputy city lord who else was behind him after he stepped down, returned disappointed again.

Lao Bai insisted that there was definitely someone behind Chang Minyang's suicide, and told Chen Mo to be more careful.

Chen Mo's plan to rest in Baishi was disrupted by the Corps.

The Donghuang Corps has decided to organize a new ecological circle investigation team, but in order to save face, it will still send troops under the name of the Cote City First Corps.

Drawing on the lessons learned from the last expedition, this advance team will be equipped with large-caliber rifles and plasma shields.

Chen Mo finally understood.

The Donghuang Corps did not pay attention to the last trial of the ecological circle. It was not that they asked the advance team to die. At least it was the decision made by Lu Diping without a unified decision-making by the upper management.

I'm afraid the military expenses are all paid out of my own pocket...

The deaths of the members of the advance team were a heartache for Chen Mo.

The members of the advance team this time were selected from the best among the Donghuang Corps, and their military quality is much better than before.

In particular, some of the sharp-sword soldiers had seen each other during competitions and drills between various units of the Donghuang Corps, and they felt a sense of cowardice even if they were not comrades-in-arms.

Chen Mo was carried out alone.

Letting such a fierce tiger who is comparable to a third-level mutant in the team is really overqualified.

Chen Mo still serves as the highest officer of the Rangers without a designation, and his military rank has been raised from Capital Colonel to Imperial Colonel.

The Order of the Red Morning Star on the ceremonial uniform is particularly conspicuous.

Because the image of him slashing at Straker's army in the air was deeply rooted in people's hearts, the Corps specially equipped Chen Mo with a giant alloy blade mixed with extremely rare metals this time.

The knife is 1.3 meters long and weighs 19 kilograms. Only a freak like Chen Mo can use it flexibly.

After simple tactical training and equipment distribution, there was no messy link like pre-war mobilization, and the troops started directly.

This time the advance team has a total of 697 people and more than 4,600 support personnel.

Looking at the various superconducting artillery shells, Chen Mo knew that this was serious business.

The instructions given by the high-level officials were - it is nearly 200 kilometers away from the Tatsumi Mountains. There is still 200,000 square kilometers of land behind the Tatsumi Mountains. Where there is a carpet of bacteria, there will be erythium mines. It does not matter even if some iridium mines are destroyed. We must

Establish a laboratory within the ecosystem to give scientists enough samples and time to decipher the ecosystem.

Without Yi, Zhongbei would still be Zhongbei, and Cote would still be Cote.

I wonder if the native creatures of Ross have a reconnaissance system, but in the face of such a luxurious firepower lineup, they did not encounter any resistance, and the troops drove all the way to the Methane River.

According to the instructions given by Shangfeng, the troops set up camp on this side of the Methane River to meet their companions who arrived later.

Because radio communication was not available inside, the Corps could only use the most primitive telephone line to communicate.

After setting up contact information, more than a thousand people previously recruited by Cote City entered the ecological circle one after another, and the new troops assisted by the Donghuang Corps also entered the ecological circle to set up defense circles and laboratories.

The key cracking experiment tasks are still carried out by the Donghuang Corps.

The secret scientific research team of the Donghuang Corps is the regiment leader's confidant, and can prevent anyone from revealing the cracking progress to the Yihuang Society to the greatest extent.

In just half a month, Cote City completed 90% of the biological, soil and water sampling in the ecosystem, leaving only native organisms as a problem.

The whereabouts of Root and Sexon are not visible on the satellite images.

These cunning creatures spend most of their time walking between umbrella trees, and their gray-black shells are an excellent protective color, making them difficult to spot on satellite images.

A large regiment of more than a thousand people, Cote's original armed forces, and an advance army, observed day and night, and finally saw traces of Root six kilometers away through optical telescopes on the eighteenth day of staying in the ecosphere.

All the experts from the advance team came out, and with Chen Mo standing by, they managed to capture one Lute and four Saxons at the cost of only three people being slightly injured.

Root and one of the Saxons were vivisected, the other two were deeply anesthetized to observe vital signs, and one had its chelicerae, tail spines and mouthparts cut off, all organs that could cause damage, and was chained to observe the behavior.

Way.

With living samples, the speed of deciphering the ecosystem is instantly accelerated.

In less than twenty-four hours, through dissection of samples, the secret of the carpet’s energy bulge was finally revealed.

It turns out that Saxon's mouthparts can't even be considered eating organs.

There is a crop in the Saxon body similar to the stomach, but this crop has no digestive function, but is used to hold organic matter waiting to be regurgitated.

In all likelihood, the objects of rumination are undiscovered brood nests.

The energy convexity of the carpet corresponds to the energy concavity on the suction cup of Sexon's foot, and the two fit together like a key.

When it matches, Sexon can replenish its own nutrients through the creep.

Apart from this, Sexon has no other means of nutritional intake.

This can also make it easy to understand why the Sexon, a creature with such extreme evolution, does not have the ability to fight outside the carpet.

As for Roots, according to behavioral analysis, they are probably the breeders of Saxons, or the leaders of Saxons.

After all, Root's population is far smaller than that of Sexon, and its combat capabilities are even worse.

Not only that, the reason why the previous advance team was ambushed and eliminated was also found.

The fungus carpet has an extremely sparse neuron distribution, which means that the fungus carpet has "feeling". Through the smell or weight, one can determine whether the creature on it is a Root, a Sexon or other creatures.

This is used to pass information back to the information processing system - probably the mother nest.

Then the Brood will use some form to inform Sexon and Root of the enemy invasion.

Sexon cannot disobey the orders of the mother's nest, because the mother's nest is the controller of the creep. If the sexon does not follow the orders of the mother's nest, the mother's nest will shut down the energy supply of the creep.

At this point, a complete ecological system has gradually appeared in front of many scientists.

This is a social biological community with the mother nest as the main body and the carpet as the command and communication method.

The fungus blanket also has many functions such as meals, commands, and feelings.

So far, the Corps has not encountered any resistance. It is likely that the Brood believes that the power gap with humans is too great and has to choose to evacuate.

Sexon and Root's research is still ongoing.

A brand new creature with too many unsolved mysteries.

Including the analysis of the infrasound waves that communicate between them, it is also a project that requires huge manpower and material resources and is extremely time-consuming.

Across the methane river is the ore vein.

To prevent accidents, the source of the methane river was cut off and diverted, turning a once lively river into a deep pit.

The stench of sludge soaked in methane for a long time is unpleasant.

Methane rivers were filled and turned into hard labor zones.

During this period, Chen Mo received a Red Cross and an Iron Fist Medal for covering his teammates several times.

He was promoted to the rank of Zhonglang.

The eternal night has arrived.

The night is long.

Chen Mo spent the whole three months of eternal night in the ecological circle.

In the blink of an eye, it is already May.
