At this moment, Xue Xunyu is controlling his biological group, swimming at a relatively slow speed to avoid accelerating the consumption of nutritional value due to strenuous exercise.
However, he was not drifting aimlessly, but was looking for rich areas according to the prompts of the Lord God. Just as there were rich areas in the "Eoarchean Era", there were also so-called rich areas in the "Strategic Invasion Era".
The meaning of rich areas in the "Eoarchean Era" refers to those areas with sufficient nutrients. In the "Stratointrusive Period", light replaced the former status of nutrients, because rich areas can also be called light-rich areas.
Why did Fuguang District become a rich district? Because the earth entered the "Huron Ice Age" during the "Stratointrusive Period", the average temperature of the entire earth was very low.
In this case, those areas with abundant light mean that the average temperature will be higher, which can provide players with a more comfortable living environment.
After all, high temperatures mean less energy can be spent on resisting the cold, and on the other hand, it also makes it easier for food resources to gather locally.
Of course, food resources do not refer to nutrients. After hundreds of millions of years of consumption in the Archean Eon, nutrients have basically withdrawn from the stage of biological activities in the current Proterozoic Eon.
According to the tests of some players on the forum, nutrients can still be found in extreme areas such as deep-sea volcanoes, but for the vast majority of players, nutrients are outdated.
The main food resources in this era are cyanobacteria, which are recognized as initial plants in the game system. Of course, the game will carefully explain the relationship between cyanobacteria and plants to players in the notes.
And because there are creatures at the bottom of the food chain, more players can naturally gather here. As more players take food, won’t there be more? Everyone is their own food.
It can be said that if you just want to fish, then you can consider not going to rich areas, but it is easy to starve to death in non-rich areas.
For players like Xue Xunyu who are at the top of the food chain, finding rich areas is a must. Only rich areas can quickly accumulate enough evolution points.
In the rich area, hunters are also prey. They obtain nutrients from the corpses of losers, thereby evolving faster than other players.
Also because the rich district in this era is actually Fuguang District, so when you encounter a rich district, you are not like before, you just rely on luck to search aimlessly.
Because the root of rich areas is sufficient light, the light does not dissipate with the wind, but can be searched through temperature traces.
As long as a rough range is determined for exploration, as the number of players gradually increases, Xue Xunyu can be clearly reminded that he has arrived in the rich area.
In the game, after a moment of searching, Xue Xunyu finally caught the tail of Fu District, laughed and said "The hunting time begins", and then joined the bloody battlefield in Fu District.
Historically, the "Huron Ice Age" lasted for a long time, but the game took into account the player's experience and allowed the "Huron Ice Age" to end with the end of the "Stratiform Age".
After all, after just one era of "Layer Invasion Era", those players who have been in rich areas for a long time have gradually widened the gap between them and ordinary players.
If this era continues, it is estimated that ordinary players will no longer play. The entire game is dominated by people like Xue Xunyu, but they are not the main players in krypton gold.
In short, as the "strata invasion period" gradually comes to an end, the world's average temperature begins to slowly increase, and the significance of the light-rich area begins to gradually disappear.
"The Epic of Life" will be updated in late August, entering the third era of the "Paleoproterozoic", changing from the "Stratigraphic Invasion Period" to the "Orogenic Period".
As you can know from the name "Orogeny", this era is characterized by very frequent geological activities, and the earth is uplifting mountain peaks on an unprecedented scale.
These changes on land have also affected players in the ocean to a certain extent, because many people suddenly found themselves being pushed from the deep sea to the shallow sea while playing.
The reason why this happened is because the area they were in was squeezed by the continental masses and gradually transformed from the deep sea into the mountains.
If these players continue to stay here, they will soon be able to land, and then turn into marine fossils on the mountains millions of years later, just like the many marine life skeletons on the snowy plateau today.
Therefore, many players in this version suffer from persecution paranoia. Whenever there is any change in the surrounding environment, they will shout that this place is going to rise and turn into a mountain range. Everyone, run away.
Since there are really many players who become tigers out of three, they panic because of the noise on the forum. When they see other species migrating, they will run with them.
Occasionally, players are really aware of the subtleties and accurately judge the truth from the changes in the environment, but most of the time they are just unfounded worries, scaring themselves and yelling, and in the end it is useless except a bunch of energy.
After a group of players fell into this situation, they thought it was all the fault of the rumor spreaders. If it wasn't them, why would I waste energy? If the species becomes extinct in the future, the reason must be traced back to this inexplicable escape.
So this group of players started to quarrel on the forum, saying on one side that the other side was incapable of yelling, and on the other side saying, "Let's run away from us, why are you following us?"
At the end of the development, the real mother was flying around, and then there were only a few fights from online to offline. Of course, there were not many actual fights, whether online or offline.
The reason why no one is fighting offline is because most of the people who are shouting online are shorts in action, and it is not worth it to argue with people over this matter.
Online fights have not developed because of the special nature of the game "Epic of Life". The players are just tiny plankton. It is difficult to see the landmarks of the surrounding scenic spots, and naturally there is no way to judge the direction.
So most of the time, these players who hate each other just complain on public channels. Of course, if they are really lucky and happen to meet, they will basically not let go of the opportunity to take revenge.
In the era of biological development during the "Orogeny", players began to prepare for the evolution into "eukaryotic cell organisms", especially Xue Xunyu, the first-tier players.
In the past, Xue Xunyu and others chose the goal of evolution mainly to improve the combat effectiveness of "prokaryotic cells", but now they are starting to change the direction.
Sometimes making some adjustments will reduce combat effectiveness, but this adjustment is to prepare for becoming a "eukaryotic cell organism", so no matter how much ability is reduced, it must be done.
Of course, it is best to achieve a balance between combat effectiveness and evolutionary preparation. On the forum, Xue Xunyu and others have discussed and analyzed a lot about how to operate this.
