The South Pole.
As one of the only two special locations on Earth, the South Pole had no daylight for half of the year.
This was the polar night.
It was June, and the South Pole happened to be in winter and the polar night.
When Ling Jiu and the others arrived at the South Pole, they saw an abandoned scientific research station.
"Before 2020, there were many such scientific research stations in Antarctica, but 20 years later, almost all of them were abandoned."
Niu Ben looked at the station covered in ice and snow. "In the end, the top human leaders found a wormhole leading to Mars in Antarctica, so they built the Antarctic Ice City. The Antarctic Ice City became the only building still in use in Antarctica. "
"Look over there!"
A matriculation camp trainee pointed in a direction and exclaimed. Everyone looked over and saw a hole behind the scientific research station.
"Let's go and have a look."
It was indeed a hole. It was a perfectly circular ice hole with a diameter of about three meters, and it led straight down.
It was so standard that it looked like it was made by burning a red-hot iron bar directly on the ice.
"Looking at the ice hole, it should be made by some kind of thermal equipment."
"Is it possible for an Ice Arcanist to do it?"
"Yes. But it's impossible to be so round. "
"Who cares how it came here. The wormhole should be down there, right? Let's go down! "
"That's right."
Everyone jumped into the ice hole.
After diving for about a quarter of an hour, they finally came to the bottom of the ice hole and came to a huge underground space.
A white sphere was suspended in mid-air. It was the wormhole.
"Who wants to go in first?"
Looking at the wormhole suspended quietly in mid-air, the trainees looked at each other. Most of the trainees dared not go in first.
After all, it was an S-class planet. Who would dare to set foot on it?
"A bunch of cowards."
A student sneered and looked at the other students with disdain. He took a step forward and entered the wormhole.
"It's Toynbee."
"F * ck! I can't believe this guy is looking down on us.
"So be it. He is, after all, number one on the scoreboard. He is indeed stronger than us."
"That's true."
With Toynbee taking the lead, the trainees entered the wormhole one after another. Ling Jiu, Bai Ya, and the others followed and came to a strange planet.
What came into view were lush plants, intricate vines, and tall, straight trees that reached the sky.
What was amazing was that the trees, shrubs, and weeds were almost exactly the same as the plants on Earth, as if they were carved from the same mold.
"Why are these plants so similar to those on Earth?"
Ling Jiu looked at the plants around him. "They are two completely different planets. Why do they breed almost the same plants?"
The environment determined the living creatures. As long as there was a slight difference in the environment, it would have a huge impact on the living creatures living in the environment.
However, it was impossible for two planets to be exactly the same in the universe, so it was naturally impossible for them to nurture creatures that were exactly the same.
This was absolutely true!
But the plants on this planet …
Ling Jiu suddenly understood why the matriculation camp had sent all the trainees here to look for that intelligent species.
If the plants were the same, would the intelligent races be the same? If they were the same, didn't that mean that this planet had also bred the same people as Earth?
"Little sister, check the composition of the atmosphere!"
Niu Ben turned around and said to his sister Niu Miao.
"It's already probing, Brother!"
Niu Miao replied. "Nitrogen 77%, oxygen 21%, argon 0.9%, water 0.25%, carbon dioxide 0.032%, and the rest …"
Niu Ben was stunned when he heard Niu Miao's answer. "Why is this atmosphere exactly the same as Earth's?"
"It's exactly the same!"
Niu Miao nodded.
"Incredible!"
Ling Jiu and Bai Ya looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
An alien planet actually had an atmosphere exactly the same as Earth's? How did this happen?
"It's hard to believe, but it seems to be true!"
Niu Ben shook his head in shock, and then he thought of something. "Does this mean we can take off the Venom Suit?"
"Try not to!"
Niu Miao quickly stopped him. "No matter how similar the environment and atmospheric composition of the two planets are, there is still a certain gap!
And this small gap may breed something fatal, such as a virus or something. We'd better wear the Venom Suit! "
"For safety's sake, we'd better wear it!"
Ling Jiu also said. In fact, with his strong physique, he could completely ignore the viruses or factors that were harmful to the human body on this planet.
However, it was better to wear it just in case. After all, the Venom Suit did not feel like a burden on the body.
They thought so, but some did not. Others also found that the atmosphere of this planet was almost the same as Earth, so many people tried to take off the Venom Suit.
"We can breathe!"
"Yes, no problem at all!"
"Really?"
"Why would I lie to you?"
"Then I'll give it a try too!"
Seeing this scene, many trainees took off their Venom Suits one after another. In the end, only Ling Jiu and a few others were still wearing them.
"It's like returning to Earth!"
"Yeah, I've been on Mars for too long. Suddenly coming here feels no different from Earth!"
"Isn't that right?"
The trainees discussed excitedly. 678
At this moment, a sharp hiss suddenly came from a distance, like thunder in the clear sky. Everyone suddenly quieted down.
Only then did everyone remember that this was a super dangerous S-class planet!
"The sound is coming from over there!"
Someone pointed in a direction and said.
"Why don't we go over and have a look?"
The trainees rose into the air and headed over there.
"Let's go over too!"
Ling Jiu and the other three also followed.
A few minutes later, everyone came to the place where the sound came from. The surrounding trees were broken, weeds were flying, and there were obvious traces of a fight.
And on the ground lay the carcass of a Direbeast.
Its body was more than 50 meters long, and its body was slightly stout. It carried a turtle shell on its back, a bit like a tortoise, but the shell was covered with thorn-like protrusions.
Instead of saying it was a tortoise, it was more like a dinosaur that had been extinct for tens of millions of years — the Ankylosaurus!
Yes, an Ankylosaurus!
This Direbeast looked very much like an Ankylosaurus!
Or rather, it was an Ankylosaurus that had been magnified ten times!
"It looks so much like an Ankylosaurus. Is this a dinosaur planet?"
Niu Ben whispered softly.
Dinosaurs were creatures that had long been extinct, at least on Earth. Even after the rise of Direbeasts, and many reptiles had undergone atavistic evolution under the stimulation of Gene Arcana, no reptile had evolved into a dinosaur.
Take the Komodo Dragon for example. Although everyone called it a dragon, it was just a lizard that had been magnified dozens of times, not a real dinosaur.
So seeing a Direbeast suspected to be an Ankylosaurus here, everyone was inevitably surprised.
"How did it die?"
Someone was puzzled.
"Could it be another Direbeast on this planet?" Someone was surprised.
"This is an S-class planet. Everyone, be careful!" Someone reminded them.
"Pfft!!!"
Just as everyone was discussing, the body of the Ankylosaurus, which was lying quietly, suddenly shook. To be precise, its stomach moved.
Immediately after, the Ankylosaurus's stomach shook more and more violently, as if something inside was beating its stomach.
"What is that?"
All the trainees were stunned.
The next moment, under everyone's watchful eyes, the Ankylosaurus's stomach suddenly burst open, and a bloody thing came out of it.
This thing looked like a snake, covered in blood, with all kinds of tiny barbs on the surface of its body. After it came out, it roared at the sky. Its voice was sharp and harsh, and it was uncomfortable to listen to.
"What the hell is this?"
"I … I don't know!"
"This thing …"
Looking at the thing that had burst open the Ankylosaurus's stomach and half of its body poking out, Ling Jiu suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
"This thing in front of me can't be that kind of creature, can it? No! That thing is just a creature in a movie. How could it appear in reality? "
What did Ling Jiu think of?
He thought of the Xenomorph!
Yes, it was the creature in the Xenomorph movie series. That creature had left a deep impression on Ling Jiu!
It was not that the Xenomorph was strong. In terms of individual strength, Ling Jiu believed that all the Xenomorph in the Xenomorph movies were no match for the trainees present here!
That was for sure!
But what sent a chill down Ling Jiu's spine was the terrifying ability of the Xenomorph: the ability to absorb the host's superior genes to evolve!
To put it simply, the more powerful the host was, the more powerful the Xenomorph would be. That was the most terrifying thing!
One had to know that there were an astonishing number of Direbeasts living on Earth now. Once these Direbeasts were parasitized by the Xenomorph, it was hard to imagine how powerful the creature would be.
"Let me see what this thing is!"
With that thought in mind, Ling Jiu immediately used his Replication Arcana to detect the Arcana information of this creature.
Name: Unknown
Race: Xenomorph
Arcana: Super Physique (Awakened), DNA Recombination (Awakened), DNA Plunder (Awakened), Super Adaptation (Awakened)
"Xenomorph! It's really a Xenomorph! "
Ling Jiu exclaimed. "Damn it, it's really this kind of thing!"
"Do you know this creature, Ling Jiu?"
Niu Ben quickly asked when he heard that.
Bai Ya and Niu Miao also looked at Ling Jiu with curiosity in their eyes.
"Yes!"
Ling Jiu's face turned ugly. "This is a very terrifying creature, more terrifying than any creature we know so far! You guys must be careful! "
"More terrifying than any creature?"
Niu Ben and the other two looked at each other.
"Ling Jiu, are you being an alarmist?"
A trainee's voice rang out. He had also heard Ling Jiu's words.
"You guys will soon see if I'm being an alarmist."
Ling Jiu took a deep breath. At this time, the Chestbreaker Xenomorph that had just broken through the Ankylosaurus' body had completely crawled out.
Something that shocked everyone happened:
The Chestbreaker Xenomorph grew at a speed visible to the naked eye, growing limbs, a tail, and an exoskeleton...
In just a few minutes, a Xenomorph with a body length of more than 60 meters, a fusiform crown, a black body, a hard exoskeleton, and a sharp tail... appeared.
But unlike the Xenomorph in Ling Jiu's impression, it had obviously inherited the characteristics of its host, the Ankylosaurus. Its torso was thicker, and it walked on all fours.
Also, it had a thick turtle shell on its back, and its tail was not a sharp knife but a hammer full of spikes.
The Ankylosaurus Xenomorph... was officially born!
