Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!
Chapter 1374 The Terrible Double-Edged Sword
There is another very vexing problem.
At that time, the Turan people had not yet found a good way to store Datura fruit for a long time.
You know, this kind of genetically modified fruit that contains a small amount of spiritual magnets and has absorbed too much spiritual energy from the spar veins is extremely unstable in nature, and it is simply a ticking time bomb.
At that time, the Turan people had not invented all kinds of witch doctors and secret medicines.
Randomly stacking a large number of datura fruits together without processing will only cause the spiritual energy stored in the fruit to produce a reaction similar to "resonance" or "resonance".
After the psychic surge exceeded the critical value, thousands of fruits, the warehouse, and all the buildings and residents around the warehouse were blasted into the sky.
After such accidents happened many times, the ancient Turan people who were busy winning the monster war could only temporarily give up the idea of large-scale storage of datura fruit.
Faced with the mandala fruits that are full of pits, the best way to deal with them is to eat them into the stomach, and then vent them out in the form of sweat, blood and killing desire.
Otherwise, it's better to let them rot in the wild and re-enter the ecological cycle.
All of the above factors made the Turan civilization at that time unprepared to face a famine that was far away.
The terrified ancient Turanians cast their hopeful eyes on the spiritual magnet experts living in the Hope.
It was these experts who concocted the Datura tree.
They can also be said to be the last batch of experts, scholars and technicians of Turan civilization.
However, experts can't say why the mandala tree has suddenly disappeared.
They tried every means to stimulate the Datura tree—injecting high-concentration nutrient solution, electric shock, fire, gene clipping, and even danced around the Datura tree, praying devoutly.
Apart from making the huge flowers of the mandala tree bloom more gorgeously and brilliantly, as if mocking human beings, it has no effect.
Experts can only guess that this is a self-protection mechanism of the datura tree.
Just like humans will close mountains to cultivate forests and set fishing bans during fishing and hunting activities.
The mandala tree also needs a period of rest after absorbing underground psionic energy for a long time and fruiting wildly.
After all, psionic energy is an extremely unstable and corrosive energy.
The cells, fiber tubes, roots, and branches of the mandala tree itself cannot withstand the long-term and overloaded transmission of spiritual energy from the ground to the ground, and there is a risk of collapse.
The instinct of survival made Datura tree self-select to "enclose mountains and cultivate forests".
As for the datura trees that grew in different periods, why did they choose to "close the mountain for forest cultivation" at the same time?
Experts believe that this is because the datura tree releases a special pheromone, so that the same kind around know that it is time to rest.
After all, the roots of the mandala tree are deeply inserted into the earth and intertwined with each other to form an inseparable whole.
If a Datura tree has entered a dormant period, the surroundings connected to its roots are still continuously absorbing spiritual energy.
These psychic energies can still penetrate the dormant person's body along the fused roots.
This "convergence" is a very common natural phenomenon.
Nothing mysterious and uncanny.
The good news is that experts have done in-depth research and concluded that the failure of the datura tree is only a temporary phenomenon.
I believe that as long as they rest enough and restore cell activity, they will start to absorb energy again and bear fruit.
The bad news is that no one knows exactly how long the datura tree will be resting.
Perhaps tomorrow, all Datura trees will "wake up".
Perhaps, the next mandala fruit will not be conceived until ten or even twenty years later.
This conclusion caused an uproar in the Turan civilization.
Realizing that the mandala tree could not be counted on for the time being, the ancient Turan people did everything possible to save themselves.
They first thought of increasing the intensity of hunting totem beasts, trying to use the flesh and blood of totem beasts to survive the famine.
But the population that can be supported by farming civilization and the population that can be supported by fishing and hunting civilization are not the same thing at all.
Besides, the totem beast also depends on the mandala fruit to thrive.
When the Turan people were facing a famine, the totem beast, which used to bark its teeth and claws, was looking at the mandala tree, which seemed to be extremely gorgeous, but the branches that did not grow half a fruit were in a daze.
Along with the harvest of datura fruit, the number of totem beasts also decreased sharply at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In many cases, it is impossible to wait for the ancient Turan people to harvest the flesh and blood of the totem beast.
The hungry beasts have long killed each other, devouring each other's flesh and blood.
What was left to the ancient Turanites was only a pair of empty skeletons.
The road of fishing and hunting is impassable.
The ancient Turanians could only look back and try to clumsily plow the fields and grow crops.
But the psychic magnet had tuned the mandala tree too perfectly.
It is so perfect that it deprives the possibility of large-scale planting of all other crops and economic crops.
Besides, the ancient Turanians were used to holding swords tightly and smashing the heads of fierce beasts, so they were not suitable for picking up hoes, manipulating agricultural machinery, and fiddling with various medicines and utensils in the laboratory.
Cultivating another crop that can compete with the datura tree is far away.
The burning hunger will come on time three times or even dozens of times a day.
Until this moment, the ancient Turan suddenly realized that there was a fatal problem in his new body, which was full of beast features and seemed to be "higher, faster, and stronger".
They who have changed from "human" to "orc" are too hungry.
There is no free lunch, whether on Turan or the New World.
For any power obtained, a corresponding price must be paid.
It seems to be taller and more powerful, tough and strong, and its fists can blast out battering rams and even rocket-like destructive power.
All of this requires a lot of nutrients and spiritual energy to support.
Hunger beat the ancient Turanians back to their original form.
No, it's worse than "returning to the original shape".
Because the ancient Turan people contained a large number of spiritual magnets in their bodies.
Even if the Turan people can forcibly endure hunger.
Even the spirit magnet couldn't stand it.
The spiritual magnet, lacking spiritual nourishment, began to haunt the hungry ancient Turanians.
Under the influence of the spiritual magnet, the hungry Turanians tend to become irritable, their aggression is greatly increased, their eyes are red, and their faces are ferocious like out-and-out beasts. Everyone looks like food that can walk.
"Swallow! Swallow! Swallow everything! Swallow all living things in sight!"
Such a voice echoed repeatedly in the ears of the ancient Turan people who were so hungry that they went crazy.
Of course, deep in the brains of most of the ancient Turanians, the sparkling fire of civilization still shines brightly.
It still has the bottom line of humanity as an intelligent life.
They refuse to heed the evil voices in their ears.
Gritting his teeth to overcome the hunger that washed away his viscera and limbs like magma, bringing indescribable pain.
Then, they were eaten alive by the spiritual magnet in their body.
First, the chest collapsed, then the limbs twitched and contracted, and then even the facial features were deeply sunken, as if a huge black hole appeared on the face, swallowing everything including the brain.
Their flesh and blood disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the spiritual magnets in their bodies, as well as the cells completely wrapped by the spiritual magnets, grew uncontrollably like cancer cells.
In no time, they were transformed into monsters, part machine, part flesh, into the original... Primordial Warriors.
The original samurai lost all humanity and sanity.
Starts to attack and devour everyone around indiscriminately.
The crazy and demonic posture is ten times more terrifying than the totem beast.
Only then did the ancient Turanians realize what a terrible double-edged sword the spiritual magnet is.
However, it was too late.
That's not to say that they couldn't get the spirit magnet out of their bodies.
The problem is, take the psychic magnet out of their body and they'll be helpless wretches.
How to continue to survive in this cruel new world?
"Since the end result of starving to the end is also being swallowed by the spirit magnet and turning into a half-human, half-ghost monster, why not take advantage of your humanity and reason, and act first and do it hard!"
"I don't eat people, I am a human, I can never eat people like a monster, but, but the town next door seems to store a lot of mandala fruits, as long as we grab those fruits, we will be saved, just It can last until the mandala tree bears fruit again!"
"There are still some totem beasts living in this mountain in front of us, including the bark of the Datura tree and the associated plants. It's not that they can't be eaten, but they have low nutritional value and less spiritual power, so they can't feed us all. , if our population can be reduced by one-third..."
After witnessing the tragedy of the living being swallowed by the spiritual magnet and turning into the living dead, such thoughts, like wildfire and viruses, quickly spread deep in the brains of all the ancient Turanians.
As for breaking through the bottom line of human nature, there is no such thing as "only breaking through once".
There are only "breakthrough zero times" and "breakthrough ten thousand times".
Once "eat the marrow to know the taste", absolutely no one can "taste the taste".
A very simple question.
Assuming that everyone needs to eat one steamed bun to live until tomorrow, and now there are ten people and nine steamed buns, ask, how many people will be left after they kill each other?
To answer "nine" would be naive.
Because people don't just want to live until tomorrow.
I still want to live until the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, next month, next year, ten years later, a hundred years later, and forever.
People's demand for steamed buns is unlimited.
Before they are not sure when they will get new steamed buns, people will only kill each other endlessly and unlimitedly until there are only the strongest one left among the ten people, or the two or three strongest people who can't help each other .
