Chapter 480 Colonial Era

However, life has to continue anyway.

People began to try to forget that earth and start a new life while hiding their communication channels.

Unsure of the level of Earth civilization in this time and space, it is a very unwise choice to expose your existence.

In any case, survival is the first element.

This was approved by all crew members.

The colonial ship entered the synchronous orbit of the planet Glitzer 581 and then began to drop probes into the planet's morning and dusk line.

When the probe landed and brought back the ground data, the colonial ship then threw down the airdrop compartment of the orbital airborne, followed by the infrastructure unit, and then the living compartment loaded with the colonists, thus opening the curtain of the colonial era.

Although a year is 37 days, because this planet does not have the concept of day and night, in order to commemorate the blue home planet, people still use the Earth's 24-hour timekeeping and solar system calendar to count the year.

There is no sea in this world. Freshwater comes entirely from glaciers on the sun on the back of the planet, freshwater lakes scattered on the morning and evening lines, and those underground rivers that intersect like blood vessels.

Large fungi and low shrubs on the surface are numerous, and the air contains very sufficient oxygen. It is very comfortable to breathe the air in this world, and this world is like it is specially created for humans.

This world is beautiful, and many magnificent natural landscapes cannot be seen on the earth.

The river flowing from the back to the sun to the sun is evaporated into a wall of fog that is thousands of miles wide under the high temperature. The sunlight deviates here and gathers into a rainbow that never dissipates.

There are also strange-shaped vegetation and giant fungi, covering every inch of soft soil on the morning and evening line. From the sky, it looks like a velvet blanket intersecting green and bright red.

Life exists on this planet, although it is very thin.

In fact, since a long time ago, the observer of this planet, Steven Vogt, has made predictions.

Personally, he believes that the probability of life on this planet is 100%, and he has no doubt about it.

It turns out that he is right.

The morning and evening line is densely covered with vegetation and a large number of strangely shaped small and medium-sized arthropods, forming a simple ecosystem.

The colonists were relieved because they were not alone.

Living units are built, ecological farms are rising from the ground, and then the road network is spread out, connecting them into a city.

Prospecting cars shuttle like an ant colony, engineering cars transform the landform, and biologists eagerly collect unheard genetic maps.

The ever-set sun is like the sun at dawn. People use their hard work to build a new home and praise a beautiful future.

Just like the colonists who set foot on America.

It’s just that they are not criminals from Europe, but human elites from pan-Asia.

Whether it is ideology or science and technology, they have enough confidence to despise that unbearable past.

Utopia was established under their hands, there was no war or crime, and everyone was brother and sister.

The contradiction has been resolved in the old world.

The seeds of human civilization will be re-launched on this soil.

Of course, there are still difficulties.

For example, the metal minerals on this planet are extremely thin, and the reserves of iron, aluminum and rare earths are beyond imagination.Miasma floating underground will reduce people's immunity and even cause illness.

However, these problems can be solved, and metal minerals can be solved through the space mining module of the colonial ship.

The miasma that plagues the health of the colonists was just the spores of a special fungus. Biologists quickly developed antibiotics to restrain their breeding, which easily solved the problem.

However, in addition to these, there is a more serious problem.

That is the solar wind.

This planet has no stable magnetic field and has almost zero resistance to particles thrown from red dwarfs.

The distance between the 581g planet is only 015 astronomical units from the stars, and only 015 times the distance between the earth and the sun.

The solar wind blowing from the red dwarf from time to time is like a direct call on the human face. Without the protection of the geomagnetic field, all electronic devices can only be used in electromagnetic shielding environments.

It's like hundreds of EMPs are constantly bombarding this planet.

In order to improve accuracy, some physical experiments involving atomic level have to be moved to colonial ships located in space for doing.

Later, in order to avoid damage to the colonial ship by the solar wind of the red dwarf, people re-accelerated the colonial ship, drove it to the back sun, and at the same time entered the star's synchronous orbit from the planet's synchronous orbit.

In this way, the colonial ship is always separated from the sun by a planet, which can prevent the frequent harassment of the colonial ship by the solar wind, and at the same time ensure the normal progress of scientific research activities.

Human production and life, which are extremely dependent on electronic devices, have been seriously affected. Even though people later used wide-area magnetic field shield to solve the problem of solar wind, this impact still exists.

After all, no matter how wide the magnetic field shield is, it is impossible for the entire planet to be covered by its protection.

Fortunately, humans are very adaptable.

After adapting to these difficulties, everything gradually went smoothly.

All cities are built under electromagnetic shields. Looking down from space, it is like umbrellas stretching out in the morning and dusk line, while humans live under the top of this umbrella.

Everything is so beautiful.

Until they discovered that the planet existed in Aboriginals.

They are a group of very aggressive creatures that are very similar to ants in terms of social form.There are female insects responsible for breeding groups, war insects responsible for hunting, and work insects responsible for digging caves.

Generally speaking, they all live 20-30 kilometers underground on the back sun.

The geothermal temperature here is enough to offset the coldness of the surface on the back sun, and it can melt the ice embedded in the ground into water.

It was not until later that people discovered that the tens of millions of rivers of varying thicknesses traverse under the surface of the earth were the masterpieces of these insects.

And their ethnic group has existed for millions of years, or their civilization has existed for at least hundreds of thousands of years.

A civilization that is older than the sum of all human civilizations.

Although this civilization has not yet been civilized.

Originally, because the living spaces between the two sides were too far apart, one was on the morning and evening line, and the other was on the ground on the back of the sun.

Maybe both sides regard each other as bugs, and humans have been living on this planet for a hundred years without discovering these neighbors.

Until the living space was gradually exhausted, humans began to think about underground and reached out to the canal of those insects.

The moment when both parties contact is destined.

War is inevitable!

Logically speaking, when facing a group of flesh and blood bugs, humans with advanced technology will not be at a disadvantage, but the reality is far from simple as people imagine.

Human soldiers holding Gauss rifles cleared the insects that were roaming to the surface with thunder. Scientists developed viruses that exterminate these insects. Orbital satellites launched by colonial ships launched ground-based bombs to clear underground nests at designated locations.

Everything went so well that everyone was optimistic that it would not take long before they could take the underground canal that had been dug tens of thousands of years for themselves.

Until a worm tide swept the border cities.

Millions of arthropod insects flock to human cities without fear of death.And swept across the entire human colonies in the morning and evening line with a destructive force.

The explosion of fire dyed the red glow in the sky red, but it still could not stop the surging of the insect swarm.

That scene was like the end of the world.

Everyone was shocked. They had never thought that these insects that were crushed by them would burst out with such powerful combat power.

Although their shells can easily penetrate these fragile bodies, they are still powerless when facing insects like tides.

Whether it is biochemical weapons or genetic bombs, people have tried to get into any way but failed to exterminate these insects, which has instead contributed to the evolution of these insects.

Just as humans have not eliminated mosquitoes and cockroaches for hundreds of years, these insects cannot be killed.

In order to fight against humans, the insects differentiated individuals with similar genes but very different traits under high-intensity natural selection.

The original female insects, war insects and worker insects further differentiated and eventually evolved into existences that are difficult for humans to ignore.

The spitter's acid was enough to corrode the armor of the tank, and the bitter's diamond-hard claws were enough to tear open the carbon nanobombardier vests of the human soldiers.

The siege worms that are hundreds of meters long are embedded with metamorphic rock shells, which are like earthworms plowing the ground, arching the human city into ruins.

Later, people even had to restrict the use of nuclear and biological weapons to prevent these bugs from further evolution.

Hundreds of thousands of years of civilization has exploded its foundation. This civilization that humans cannot understand has declared its sovereignty over this planet with its unique cruelty.

It takes 18 years for humans to be born to adulthood, and the slowest insects only take one week.

They devour similar corpses and use these organic matter to breed new individuals.

As it turned out, people finally found that using human market economics to measure the logistics of this Zerg civilization, a heterogeneous species that can only tear open carbon nano armor with sharp claws is even lower than the magazine of a Gaussian rifle.

These creatures who do not know what death is are testing human logistics with their tide-like numbers.

The living space was squeezed by bugs, and people once retreated to the space station in low-Earth orbit.

Even if there are only advanced science and technology, but no resources that can transform them into combat power, we have to admit that we are at a disadvantage in the war with these bugs.

Fortunately, although some insects can fly, they cannot fly out of the atmosphere.

People have coined a vocabulary to summarize all these aberrational evolutionary bug xenotypes.

In this way, the thousand-year war era began.

The war between humans and alien species.
