Chapter 138: Ingestion of Biosphere Resources

"Oh, what kind of animal is so tough that it can't be killed even with a kick?"

The soldier who was sighing in his heart suddenly heard another surprised mutter. No need to guess, it must be Xu Yanxia abusing the animals on this planet again.

He didn't want to pay attention, but he heard Xu Yanxia shouting in the channel: "Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and help me catch it. Have you forgotten that Dr. Yi Kai is looking for an impact-resistant animal? Research on high-G acceleration and strengthening. That thing was kicked by me and still alive. Its body structure must be great. It will be a great achievement to pin it down."

After this reminder, several soldiers looked towards the place where the noise came from.

I saw an animal with orange-yellow fur all over its body. It was stuck in the sunken pile of soil because of a kick. The next moment, it shook its body and shook itself down, then spread its four legs and ran towards the bushes not far away.

This animal has a cat-like head, three-clawed hooves, flat teeth, a long neck, four eyes, a single horn, and a scream that sounds like a dolphin. It is as big as a calf, with fluffy fur all over its body, which is quite cute.

There is also a print on its buttocks, and the trace of bald fur should be the place where Xu Yanxia kicked it.

"It is a herbivorous animal. We have seen it when no one was exploring. We call it the unicorn cat. It is a common vegetarian niche animal on this planet. It feeds on the trunks of shrubs and has a gentle temperament. I didn't expect its bones to be so hard." A biologist said in surprise.

He was already a little dissatisfied with Xu Yanxia's behavior of kicking animals everywhere, but he didn't expect to kick such a tough animal.

Bang!

At this moment, the sound of a gun barrel bursting sounded.

Then, the group saw a silver light flying out of the gun barrel in the hands of the front soldier, and it turned into a soft steel wire mesh in an instant, and covered the unicorn cat with lightning speed.

One shot hit the soul.

Seeing the unicorn cat caught in the soft steel mesh rushing around but unable to get out, the soldier stepped forward and raised his five steel claws to grab the unicorn cat in his hand.

"Well done!"

This scene not only happened in this team, but other teams also occasionally did side jobs outside the main task. Whenever they came across something that they thought was of high value, they basically had to collect it back.

There were dozens of teams like this during this landing. Some of them mainly collected plants, some mainly collected animals, and some collected soil and microorganisms, of various types.

In addition to the outbound personnel, the engineering personnel among the landing personnel built ground transfer stations and temporary research stations.

The initial collection tasks were not so conservative. Basically, they walked over and collected whatever they saw. After all, at this stage, they did not pursue living samples. Of course, sometimes they would use scanners to scan the target to prevent too many duplicate samples.

After six years of unmanned exploration, humans have now basically determined that there is no intelligent life on this planet, which has reassured the new government a lot, and at the same time disappointed those who want to study intelligent life.

As for the stage of life evolution, biologists, geologists and other experts need to further confirm it based on samples and field investigations.

These tasks are also carried out simultaneously during this landing.

In this way, samples were taken to the Ganymede ship by humans, and then transported to the orbital space station one by one.

Then the scientists on the orbital space station conducted research.

There were no accidents in the collection of biological samples during this landing. Occasionally, some animals with strong bodies were easily subdued by the landing personnel wearing new space suits.

On a primitive planet, no matter how powerful the animals on it are, they cannot compare to the steel bodies armed by humans with technology.

Those biological samples transported to the orbital space station will be stored in the corresponding storage cabins after being classified layer by layer.

The first batch was mostly dead objects, and starting from the second batch, more and more living things appeared in the biological samples.

The cabins where living things are placed were transformed by humans according to the environment of the planet Wolf 1061 c. Different organisms live in different environments, and humans build corresponding environments according to the living environment of each organism.

There are many species swimming in water, living in bushes, swamps, swamps, sandy land, and caves. In addition to the three types of plants and animals, there are also many cabins dedicated to bacteria and microorganisms.

The rotation speed of the orbital space station is also set to produce a simulated gravity that is more similar to the gravity of Wolf 1061 c.

It can be seen that humans want not only to study, but also various biological samples, and even as long as they can meet the living environment of the organisms on Wolf 1061 c, they will try to get some organisms to keep in captivity.

Humans cannot stay here forever, and there is no way to take away the entire Wolf 1061 c planet, so they can only use this method to absorb as many precious biosphere resources on this planet as possible.

This is also why the orbital space station should be built in the same type as the Hope spacecraft. When humans leave here, the orbital space station can be renamed the Wolf Biological Resources Spacecraft.

It is conceivable that personnel entering and leaving this space station must undergo strict disinfection procedures, and wearing protective clothing during work is also the most basic requirement.

In order to allow biologists to carry out their research work comfortably, the relevant departments have specially created a set of lightweight protective clothing for them, a set of protective clothing that integrates air conditioning and a self-oxygen supply system.

Humans have made great efforts to prevent cross-infection of microorganisms and invasion of microbial populations.

Of course, humans do not want to wear protective clothing to enter the orbital space station all the time, nor do they want to perform cumbersome disinfection every time, but this is necessary at this stage.

The goal of humans is to utilize the biosphere of the planet Wolf 1061 c, and the purpose of studying this biosphere is to serve humans. So in the near future, when certain research results are obtained and used on humans and take effect, there will be no need for such trouble.

Yes, transforming oneself so that one can also adapt to the microbial environment of the Wolf biosphere is the first stage goal of human research on the planet Wolf 1061 c.

It is also the first step for humans to strengthen and transform themselves.

After that, humans do not have to worry about being infected by the microorganisms in this biosphere.

After that, various targeted biological analyses and experiments are carried out to understand the advantages and reasons for the formation of abilities of various organisms in the biosphere, and then let humans also have the abilities they want.

This is the second step of the research plan, which is also the so-called body strengthening research.

This is why Yikai always says that a planetary biosphere is needed. It is just like a good cook cannot cook without rice.

The so-called "investigating things to gain knowledge" means that you need "things" to "investigate".

Humans do not have superpowers or divine powers, so they can only improve themselves in this way. To put it more traditionally, it is called learning from nature.

The Taoist saying that man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature is to investigate things to gain knowledge in Confucian terms.
