Global Game: Ten Billion Spirit Energy Coins From The Start
Chapter 1296 - Chapter 1296 1231 Ark Project

Chapter 1296: 1231, Ark Project Chapter 1296: 1231, Ark Project “This…” Su Yu originally wanted to refuse because what difference was there between searching for living creatures there and finding a needle in the ocean?

No, finding a needle in the ocean might even be easier.

But he felt that Sky Dragon’s spiritual power had become obviously unstable. To soothe Sky Dragon, Su Yu sighed and said, “Alright, let’s go there now, hoping we can find some living creatures.”

Su Yu waved his hand, and a portal to the barren continent quickly opened.

The two stepped through the portal and arrived above the barren continent.

…

Stepping out of the portal, the two found themselves in the middle of the barren continent, about 200 kilometers south of the Sacred Sun Secret Realm (known as the Terminal Secret Realm by the Skrull people).

The Sacred Sun Secret Realm, of course, no longer existed.

Looking around, Su Yu and Sky Dragon still saw no living creatures, only the pervasive red fog.

Even using his spiritual power to search meticulously, Su Yu found no trace of life within a 200-kilometer radius.

Originally, many towering giant plants had covered the area where they were, some even reaching heights of two to three hundred meters!

Beneath these giant plants were numerous normal-sized trees and shrubs, smaller creatures darting in and out.

Now, all these sights were gone, replaced by a desolate landscape with nothing but bare soil.

Su Yu looked around to confirm their location, then pointed towards the east, “Let’s head in that direction, towards the icy plains of the barren continent. Also, several of the top secret realms on Skru Star are in that direction, we might find living creatures there.”

“Okay.” Sky Dragon nodded, and the two flew eastward together.

…

Su Yu and Sky Dragon were not flying fast, not using their usual flying speed.

They intentionally kept their flying speed down to six to seven hundred kilometers per hour to facilitate their use of spiritual power to detect living creatures.

As they flew, they continued their search.

Throughout the search, they felt as though they were on the surface of the Moon or Mars, on a completely barren planet.

Still, there were significant differences between here and the Moon or Mars.

The surface of the Moon and Mars lacked water, covered in dry rocks and dust, with Mars even coated with a layer of ferric compounds, giving it a red hue.

But Skru Star was different.

Now, Skru Star had water and plenty of organic substances like amino acids and protein molecules.

Once the effect of the red fog dissipated, even if Skru Star was devoid of life now, life could still emerge again from these organic materials–but this process might take a long time, maybe even tens or hundreds of millions of years.

…

During the search, Su Yu and Sky Dragon chatted sporadically.

“Actually…” Sky Dragon said as he flew, “We could send some people to Skru Star. Drac has already blood-sacrificed this planet once, he probably won’t do it again, right?

We could send some people here, and they could continue living here.”

“Hmm… makes sense,” Su Yu nodded.

But looking around, he became troubled again, “But what would these people eat? There’s no food on Skru Star, and who knows how long it will take for the red fog to clear. Their survival here would be quite difficult.”

“For food…” Sky Dragon’s eyes shifted around before he continued, “we could start with food brought from Blue Star. We could also build them a small ecosystem to plant food crops in… There’s always a way.”

“That could work.” Su Yu nodded again.

But after a while, Su Yu emphasized, “However, these people cannot be too strong or too numerous.

If they are very strong, say Seventh Order high-ranking adepts or more than a thousand people, they might attract Drac’s attention!”

“More than a thousand people?” Sky Dragon was puzzled, “Wouldn’t that be too few to draw Drac’s notice?”

“Drac might not, but he has many minions!” Su Yu explained, “Like those six Dark Thunder Dragon descendants, to them, this would be easy pickings, they definitely wouldn’t let it go.

We can only hope to keep the numbers as low as possible and their strength as weak as possible, so weak that even Drac’s minions would consider them insignificant. Only then can the seeds of life survive on Skru Star.”

“You’re right, so how many people can we send?”

“Three hundred at most, and their strength shouldn’t be strong, preferably below fourth order.”

“Below fourth order? Their survival capability would be worrisome!”

“It can’t be helped, we can only hope that they can stubbornly survive.”

“Should we name this plan?”

“We already have the ‘Seed Life Plan,’ let’s call this one the ‘Ark Project.'”

“‘Ark Project’? A fittingly standard name.”

…

While discussing, Su Yu and Sky Dragon continued their search.

After finalizing the name “Ark Project,” nearly three hours had passed.

Having searched continuously for three hours, Su Yu and Sky Dragon started to feel tired.

It wasn’t physical fatigue, but a kind of deep, mental exhaustion.

In those three hours, Su Yu and Sky Dragon flew faster and faster, nearly crossing the barren continent.

They also delved into many areas, searching through the top ten secret realms of the barren continent in sequence.

Regrettably, these secret realms had either disappeared or been destroyed; none exhibited signs of remaining life, not even microbes.

Left with no choice, Su Yu and Sky Dragon decided to stop and rest for a while.

…

At the six-hour mark after arriving on Skru Star, Su Yu and Sky Dragon paused to rest on a barren, unremarkable mountaintop.

Just a day earlier, this mountain had been the location of Skru Star’s third-ranked Secret Realm–the “Beloberg Secret Realm.”

“Beloberg” was the name of an ancient giant dragon and the secret realm was named after it.

Naturally, the theme of the secret realm primarily involved dragon descendants, and the Skrull people had also given it a more vivid name–“Dragon Abyss Secret Realm.”

This had once been an ancient secret realm that chilled the hearts of countless Skrull sentient beings. Now, it too had turned to ruins. As Su Yu’s spiritual power swept over the area, nothing was detected.

“Ah, maybe we should just give up,” Sky Dragon sat on a rock, his head down, his eyes filled with gloom.

After searching for so long, they hadn’t found a single surviving creature; they had searched all the major secret realms, and continuing seemed to offer little chance of success, perhaps only microbes would be found, but that was pointless.

“Alright!” Su Yu sighed as well, “Let’s stop here, continuing would only be a waste of time. Besides, we still need plenty of time to implement the ‘Ark Project’…”

But just as he was speaking, Su Yu suddenly paused.

Because he suddenly sensed, about 200 kilometers to the southwest, the essence of living creatures!
