The first thousand two hundred and eighty-seven chapters
Regarding the demise of a low-level civilization, Luo Hou's attitude could be said to be indifferent. If Lei Luo hadn't asked more, he might not even bother to explain, just like humans don't care about the life and death of ants.
This kind of mentality is very consistent with the nature of Luo Hou's work, but...
Even though his power was on the same level as that of a sweeper, Lei Luo could not treat all living beings like ants after all. Watching a world similar to his previous life destroyed, even though it seemed calm on the surface, his mood was actually very unpleasant.
During the rest of the journey, the two of them didn't talk about anything.
A week later, in an empty space area, Lei Luo stopped unknowingly and looked at the distant scene, feeling a little lost for a moment: "Is that the land of the Otsutsuki tribe?"
The huge black star stands in the sky, giving people a cold and profound atmosphere. On its periphery, it is surrounded by countless islands, large or small, far or near, like countless satellites, emitting bright light and slowing down.
Float slowly.
Black Star, plus islands, is almost the size of a solar system.
Once upon a time, a similar celestial body he had seen by chance flashed through his mind, and Lei Luo immediately recognized the name of the pitch-black star. There was no doubt that it was definitely a "neutron star."
What is a neutron star?
When a huge star burns all its fuel, its central region will begin to collapse due to gravity, and then a supernova explosion will occur, blowing away the outer layers of material.
During the process of gravitational collapse, it is possible to form a planet composed almost entirely of uncharged subatomic particles - neutrons. Its mass is about 1.4 to 2 times that of the sun, but its diameter is only a dozen kilometers.
Neutron stars are one of several death states that a star can be born into after a supernova explosion. Correspondingly, there are black holes and white dwarfs, whose existence form can be summarized as a "semi-collapsed state."
The microscopic material that makes up neutron stars is called the neutron state, or element 0. The density of this element is extremely high. The mass of a sugar cube is equivalent to the total mass of human beings. You can imagine how strong its gravity is.
powerful.
The neutron star in the distance is many times larger than an ordinary neutron star.
Lei Luo thought to himself that if his prediction was correct, the Otsutsuki clan should have used special means to limit the gravity of the neutron star. Otherwise, the surrounding islands would definitely be torn apart by the gravitational waves at the first opportunity.
Rather than like now, like a satellite orbiting the earth.
"gone."
Luo Hou said hello and flew forward first. Lei Luo didn't have time to think too much and quickly followed. As the distance got closer, he observed some details: from each island, a dark green branch extended out and was inserted into the surface of the neutron star.
The densely packed branches move together as the island orbits the neutron star. This scene is like a spider web trembling slightly when the breeze blows.
Following Luo Hou, Lei Luo crossed the islands, avoiding the strangely shaped thick branches. He glanced left and right and saw the houses and palaces built on the islands, as well as the Otsutsuki tribesmen scattered throughout them.
Each island is like a different space, a small world. The soft light shines from the core, illuminating various scenes on the surface. There are forests, rivers, hills, snow, deserts, and some...
It’s not easy to describe yet, the natural environment.
Luo Hou glanced at Lei Luo who was looking left and right, and said calmly: "The unique scenery on those islands are all created by chakra fruits. Without the natural energy contributed by other planets, this place would not be so livable."
"Chakra fruit?" Lei Luo turned around and asked doubtfully: "Isn't that thing for eating? Do you mean that people who eat the fruit will have the ability to transform nature?"
"No, it's not like that." Luo Hou shook his head and explained in plain language: "Chakra fruit, for our clan, is the basic energy unit. In your understanding, it should be equivalent to
Batteries, gasoline.”
"By plundering the energy of other planets, the chakra fruits collected can be transformed into a medium to expand our territory through specific devices. This is how most residential islands were born."
"Of course, chakra fruits can also be used for food, but usually not many people do this." Speaking of this, Luo Hou's eyes flashed with disapproval.
"Oh? Why?"
Luo Hou pointed to an island not far away, where there was a group of Otsutsuki children standing on a high mountain, looking curiously at the Otsutsuki children. He said: "Most of the tribesmen will never leave their place of residence throughout their lives."
"Living in the tribe does not require high combat effectiveness. Even if you go out once in a while, with the power of blood, weapons, and magic, it is enough to deal with the natives of low-level civilizations, and high-level civilizations..."
After a pause, a trace of nostalgia appeared on Luo Hou's face:
"If you have enough talent, are motivated, and want to become stronger, you can pass the trial of Protector Vishnu at the age of two hundred to obtain more superior and efficient training resources and become a true warrior.
.”
"This will completely widen the gap with the lower class people."
Lei Luo noticed the change in Luo Hou's expression, and had a sudden realization in his heart. He felt that the other party should have grown up to this day through this channel, and maybe the same was true for the other three sweepers.
"However, there is only one chance to challenge. If you fail, it will prove that you are not talented enough to enter the regular battle sequence." Luo Hou shrugged and said meaningfully:
"People like Kaguya and Ci Xian you have met before are not qualified to be warriors, but they are not willing to stop here for the rest of their lives, so they can only place their hope on chakra fruits in an attempt to produce qualitative changes through quantitative changes."
"Honestly, this can't be wrong, it's just a bit...ridiculous."
There will always be no shortage of ambitious people in this world. Talents are not enough and numbers are enough. This is the motivation behind the behavior of some tree planters. However, looking at the strength gap between Luo Hu and them, we can see that this path is actually to seek the long distance at the expense of the near.
But this is a once-in-a-lifetime trial...what can they do?
Kaguya, Ji Xian, Urashiki, Momo Shiki, and Jinshiki, the behavior of these people competing for chakra fruits, in Rahou's eyes, may not be much different from a group of wild dogs competing for bones, right?
Real warriors have long used nuclear energy, and those who cannot be warriors will either live a mediocre life, or they can only become tree planters, stealing two chakra fruits for personal gain, and using inferior gasoline energy.
No matter how much gasoline there is, how can it compare to atomic energy?
"It's really an extremely strict hierarchy..."
Lei Luo was touched and couldn't help but sigh. He thought of the ninja world, those blood ninjas and ordinary ninjas. It seemed that no matter where he went, things like bloodline talents occupied a dominant position in growth.
This guy Luo Hou is probably also a "noble", right?
