my stealth fighter

Chapter 1186
Before Jiang Chanji left Noah Star last time, the floating lanterns were completely wiped out to the point where only one seedling remained, and now, nearly a year later, they have once again become the overlords of the sky, at least within this area. Go, they are busy coming and going like kites flying in spring.

"Don't you find it strange?" Yi Xing sat on a rock, squinted at them in the air, and asked Jiang Chanji next to him.

"What's so strange?" Jiang Chanji was secretly shocked by the current hatching success rate. Replacing the ape girl as the hatcher by humans must have improved the success rate, but with such an increase, the premature death rate has almost dropped to zero. It inevitably made him think too much, and he couldn't help wondering whether it was related to the bee in Yixing's body, but Yixing's behavior has been normal recently, and his personality has become more gentle than before, and he is no longer so explosive. Did breeding animals change her personality?

"You said that before you left here, you took the last crystal, and the other crystal kept by the dean has been on the earth, so during the time you left, this planet should be in the source energy The vacuum period, but the newly hatched floating lanterns during that time are still born with telekinesis—don’t you think this is a bit strange?” she explained.

It seems a little strange to say that, Jiang Chanji thought for a while, "Maybe it is the remaining source energy on this planet? If the source energy is regarded as radiation, even if the source of radiation is removed, the existing radiation will not dissipate so quickly .”

"It's possible." She nodded.

But Jiang Chanji felt that she had something to say, and if she hadn't expressed it out of emotion, she wouldn't have started it, so she asked, "Do you have any new ideas?"

"I recently discovered that they can absorb solar energy." She replied flatly.

"Ah?" He subconsciously glanced at the bright sun from the corner of his eye. The main sequence star in this star system is younger than the sun, and the light emitted is closer to white. "Photosynthesis?"

As soon as the words were out of his mouth, he was being stupid. They don't have chlorophyll in their bodies, so they use their butts to photosynthesize?So he changed his mind and asked, "How did you find out?"

Yixing doesn't have any scientific instruments at hand. Although she has integrated the genes of [-] strongest seniors, she has no scientific literacy other than mathematics. The secret that the empty lantern body did not discover.

"Feeling?" Yi Xing's tone was uncertain, but what she was not sure about was how she knew it, not about the fact that the floating lanterns absorbed solar energy.

Absorb solar energy?Not impossible, but for what?They obviously have tentacles that can prey on them, and they don't seem to need solar energy, an inefficient way to obtain energy...

You Qisi interrupted suddenly: "The utilization efficiency of light energy is not low, but your technological level is still too low. If it can be close to 100%, it is a very efficient way. Don't forget that the jellyfish also mainly relies on Absorb the light energy of stars to store energy, but they will accelerate the release of energy and aging of stars, if the floating lantern can absorb light energy with higher efficiency, it can be regarded as a weakened version of flower jellyfish."

Jiang Chanji was taught again. Although he didn't fully digest the content for a while, he didn't realize that You Qisi had hinted at a certain possibility in the future.

"So I was thinking, what if you command them to fly higher and receive more light energy?" Yi Xing asked.

"Is it higher?" Jiang Chanji looked up at the sky, "How high is it?"

"Fly to the edge of the sun." She stood up, raised her hand to block the light, and pointed her other hand high at the main sequence star, "The energy density there must be higher!"

Jiang Chanji couldn't help being dumbfounded, he really didn't know what to say, first of all... "Are you sure they can survive in that kind of vacuum, strong radiation, and scorching heat?"

"I don't know, but you can try it. If you don't try, you will never know. Why don't you send one to fly over there to try?" She actively encouraged, her eyes were shining brightly.

Second... "Even if they can survive there, and absorb a lot of energy..."

In the middle of speaking, a certain idea seemed to emerge in his mind, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.

He remembered that Youqisi said that black stone crystals can be used as brewed honey. Honey must be brewed by bees, but bees are also subdivided into queen bees, drones, and worker bees. The seed bee can control the energy of the black stone crystal, and the seed bee has a great connection with the floating lantern...

Could it be... the floating lantern can collect energy to brew black stone crystals?He and Yukiss suspected that the floating lanterns were just playing the role of worker bees, but there was no evidence. As a strange intelligent creature, they might have more roles within them.

He couldn't help but feel agitated in the depths of his heart, making his heart beat faster - if this is confirmed, it means that the black stone crystal is not a non-renewable resource, but a renewable resource, although the speed of regeneration must be extremely slow, after all, they only suffer With such a star, the number of floating lanterns itself is too small, but there is hope after all.

He hadn't seen floating lanterns do this before, but it might also be because there were enough black stone crystals here at that time, they didn't need to brew new ones, anyway, the existing ones couldn't be used up, although it was similar to bees, but floating The empty lantern has group intelligence, not a stupid low-level animal like a bee that can only brew honey infinitely by instinct.

It's a pity that Yi Xing lost her memory, otherwise she who didn't lose her memory would definitely know the truth...

Thinking of this, he shuddered again, turned his head to look at Yi Xing, she was still looking at the sky with that perfect face and innocent smile, it didn't look like her memory had recovered, and her memory was not. Full recovery possible.

"Okay, I agree. Let's try with one." He nodded and said, "Even if it doesn't work, we'll just lose one. Let's see if it can survive in such a harsh cosmic environment."

He also knew in his heart that most of them were possible. They could live in this meteorite and survived the impact of the meteorite. In comparison, the universe would not be much worse.

"Then let me give it a ride, it's too slow to let it fly by itself."

Yi Xing casually controlled a floating lantern closest to them, pulled it to her side, and then it disappeared. She used the space teleportation ability, although it cost a little crystal energy, but this is the price that must be paid , they don't want to wait too long for this result.
