Everyone looked at the screen and was unusually puzzled, but they didn't see anything abnormal, Ye Fei was about to ask clearly, but found that Xia Zhuoyan continued to enlarge the corner of the star, and did not stop until the corner of the star occupied most of the main screen.

The small celestial bodies surrounding the star were clearly visible under the high magnification of the optical system, and everyone, including Ye Fei, was stunned at the same time when they saw this scene.

"Cosmic creatures?" Ye Fei exclaimed in surprise.

Starting from the Outer Bone Man, he has seen cosmic creatures, not one thousand, but eight hundred, but since he came into contact with the Saucer Clan six years ago and met the Atlanteans later, Ye Fei and his fleet have rarely encountered cosmic creatures again, and he can't remember the last time he saw cosmic creatures.

The cosmic creatures enlarged on the screen are extremely numerous, densely covering the screen, and under the sun, the shell of this creature takes on a gradual purple color, which at first glance looks like dense purple spots growing on the surface of a star.

The body of this cosmic creature is clearly divided into two parts, the upper part of the body is a hemispherical shape, like an elongated mushroom, and the other half of the body is very irregular in shape, each individual has a different shape, and the lower body of this creature can be roughly seen with the naked eye is only half the size of the upper body.

The cosmic creatures on the screen are holding dirty snowball-like ice asteroids with their arthropods, some of which are relatively large in size, and a huge number of cosmic creatures are piled up on them like layers of dense ants. Crazy gnawing at asteroids.

"What is this? It can't be a zerg, right? Feng Lei's heart rate soared again, almost exceeding two hundred, and his face became extremely pale.

Since the first appearance of the Zerg in science fiction novels in the twentieth century, for more than 200 years, the idea of the Zerg has never disappeared in science fiction works, after entering the cosmic age, the Outer Bone Man was once classified by some people as a race similar to the Zerg, since then human beings have conducted a lot of research on cosmic creatures, and there are many unheard of understandings and speculations about cosmic creatures, and a lot of research has been done on whether this crazy creature of the Zerg may appear in reality.

Conclusions based on research. It's not very likely that the Zerg will exist like the Zerg in science fiction works. However, considering the existence of insect communities such as ants and bees on the earth, it is very likely that there is some kind of insect community with a tight organization in the universe.

"I hope not." Ye Fei's expression was very solemn.

"Since I've never seen them before, let's give them a name." Feng Lei's professional habits led him to make such a proposal.

"Let's call the purple ants first." Ye Fei gave the most straightforward name heartlessly.

"Purple ants? What a frustration for the name! The black bear judged unceremoniously.

Ye Fei also knew that his name was almost there, and said angrily: "Then I'll take a look if you don't get frustrated!" ”

"What's so hard about that!" The black bear is confident. "This thing eats asteroids. I think it's better to call it a star-eating ant. ”

"It's a fitting name!" Feng Lei immediately agreed.

Those who are engaged in astronomy lack the talent for making names. Just now, he thought the purple ants were very good.

The black bear proudly raised his eyebrows at Ye Fei, and Ye Fei turned his head to give him the back of his head: "We have to stay here and observe for a while, if the star-eating ants are extremely aggressive." It is necessary to inform the local area to prepare early, Xiao Xia, leave a few satellites, Jiang Xue, and withdraw from the material enrichment area. He didn't say anything, but he admitted in his heart that the name Star-Eating Ant was more appropriate than Purple Ant.

The two of them immediately complied, and the belly armor of the Seed Source was opened, and several inconspicuous satellites were sent out of the ship by tentacles, and then the battleship retreated outside the galaxy.

The so-called material enrichment zone is the space where there are more small celestial bodies in the galaxy, such as the asteroid belt and the Ikob belt of the solar system, and most of the material enrichment areas of this galaxy are located within two astronomical units from the star, and the number of celestial bodies outward is very small, and the possibility of encountering purple ants is also very small.

The battleship did not enter the speed of light, but the speed of retreat was not slow, the magnified picture on the optical system quickly shrank as the battleship retreated, Xia Zhuoyan immediately operated a few times, the magnification of the optical system increased again, and the screen on the side switched to a satellite perspective.

Xia Zhuoyan looked at the screen and said worriedly: "The star eater even eats asteroids, will it eat our moon too?" ”

"Probably not." Ruan Peng comforted, "Look closely, the star-eating ants eat all asteroids that contain water, and those asteroids that are completely rocks are not visited by the star-eating ants at all. ”

Everyone really hadn't noticed this detail before, and when Ruan Peng said this, they couldn't help but turn their eyes to the asteroids on the screen that were not targeted by the star-eating ants, and after a closer look, they were all stony or similar to stony, basically not containing water.

The wolf cub said suspiciously: "This place is such a small celestial body, the star-eating ants are definitely not native to this place, they gather here as if they are foraging for food......"

"Makes sense!" Ye Fei said, "The question now is where they come from and whether they are in danger." ”

Scissors immediately built: "Do you need to test their combat effectiveness with a test?" ”

"Not yet." Ye Fei shook his head and vetoed, "Let's see." ”

"Look!" Xia Zhuoyan exclaimed again, straightening his arm and pointing at the screen on the side.

Xia Zhuoyan has been constantly adjusting the lens of the satellite, hoping to collect as comprehensive the situation of the star-eating ants as possible, but he didn't expect one of the satellites to photograph something unusual.

"Another cosmic creature?" The black bear froze in astonishment.

Appearing on the screen is a cosmic creature with a black-brown body and a roughly oval body, a flat head and a round tail. The mottled shell is very hard at first glance, and the upper shell is turned out at the position of the lower abdomen, which is equivalent to the forelimbs of a fish fin or a reptile, and the two thin and long, scaly tentacles protrude from the shell, and the length is equivalent to half the length of the body, which swayed gracefully in the air like a jellyfish.

The second cosmic creature that has just been discovered is much larger than the star-eating ant, and judging from the calculations given at the edge of the screen, the body length is about two kilometers, while the average length of the star-eating ant is only one hundred and sixty meters, which is simply the difference between winter melon and bean sprouts.

"Is it the queen ant?" Feng Lei asked lightly subconsciously.

No one could answer the question, but everyone quickly got the answer - Xia Zhuoyan found a second cosmic creature that was significantly larger than the first one by two circles. (To be continued......)
