Chapter 4

AZ8765 lived a peaceful life on the Impel Icefield in the following days, except for a father who was close to being crazy.And he was curious about everything about the new planet, so it was exactly what he wanted to be carried by Fale—it could avoid a lot of external interference, and it was convenient for him to do initial research first.

First of all, he has discovered that the ice here generally contains some special inorganic salts and small molecular organic substances, which lower the melting point.In this way, the maximum temperature difference is not as large as he had expected; because there is a liquid ocean all year round near the equator (discussed by the penguins), but the temperature may not be above zero degrees Celsius.

In addition, of the five moons in the sky, according to the comprehensive data combined with previous record analysis, one surface is covered with a yellow-green atmosphere rich in sulfur and chlorine, while one surface is a whole piece of ice (so it is the brightest at night); the other two They are all bare, the difference is that one is full of impact craters, the other is full of volcanoes; as for the last one, it is a dark star composed of superneutrons - it does not absorb or reflect any particles, so that at all times, it cannot be seen by the naked eye at all. Can't see it.

Regardless of the type of surface, these five natural satellites imply a more complex gravitational field.The biggest concrete manifestation is that the tides are different every year.It is very difficult to make accurate predictions, because there are thousands of small moons in that icy satellite belt.These factors can affect not only the tides, but also factors such as the temperature difference between day and night and seasonal changes; in other words, the creatures on this planet have to face a more severe survival situation than the ancient earth.

In the eyes of emperor penguins, this seems to be the difference between no and four moons in the sky.For AZ8765, these are the necessary background information for analyzing the influence of the environment on living things.Because what he cares most about—or in other words, the preset goal pays most attention to—is what are the necessary conditions for a planet to produce life.

The problem is so complex that it is clear that the examples listed above are just the tip of the iceberg of the task.Others, such as the air pressure gravity revolution period, as small as the antifreeze protein gene and the microstructure of fibrous tubular feathers, are all objects that need to be studied.AZ8765 immersed in this kind of record analysis almost forgot the passage of time, and almost forgot that he was still pretending to be an egg.

In the last month before spring, blizzards continued to rage, though with decreasing frequency.As the temperature rises slowly, Claudio appears more frequently, taking away a few ice eggs each time—according to the estimation of AZ8765, the hatching rate of emperor penguin eggs is only 20.00% to [-]; In the colony, the unexpected egg is enough to feed a skua; because of this, his obviously problematic egg was tolerated by the leader and other penguins.

Obviously, emperor penguins have only one criterion for evaluating eggs: an egg that can hatch little penguins is a good egg!

So AZ8765 has no initial worries at all.Anyway, he shouldn't remember that he was frozen in the ice after he hatched, and he just needs to keep pace with other little penguins in the future.And so, looking at the brightening horizon, the only thing he could think of was analyzing the new spectrum reflected and refracted by the atmosphere.

This matter is too far away for Fa Le to think of it at all.Like every other emperor penguin dad, he's more concerned with other things - around polar night, when the chicks are hatching.

The AZ8765 is in no hurry.For this batch of penguin eggs, he has collected enough information.Therefore, when the first little penguin broke its shell, the whole penguin colony was excited and spread the word; but he still manipulated the particles to maintain the appearance of an egg, not in a hurry—as the saying goes, Shoot the bird.He has already had a great previous love experience, of course, it is more appropriate to hatch in the middle and late stages, so as to avoid attracting the attention of other penguins.What if they knew he could predict when all the penguin eggs would crack?

It's a pity that Fale didn't know that the egg he picked up was thinking about such complicated reasons.All he knew was that the other penguins saw their babies one by one, but his one didn't move at all.For one or two days, he could barely maintain a normal mood; for three or four days, he couldn't help being anxious; for five or six days, he had already begun to wonder if he had committed something in the past that he didn't even notice False, so that the child has not moved.

The more Fale thought about it, the more anxious he became, and finally he couldn't hold it back, and moved his two short legs to turn in a different direction.no!He had to ask Ode if something was wrong with his eggs!Obviously he has been careful a lot!

It's not easy.Not because of the distance, but as we said earlier, Ode is a hot penguin.There are quite a few penguins who are fathers for the first time, and most of them are reluctant to stay too far away from Ode even when it is windy and snowy.Fa Le actually wanted to do this too, but he was very guilty of holding an ice egg, and he was afraid that the egg would be coveted, so he stayed in the corner for a long time, and now it is not so easy to squeeze in from the penguin colony easy.

And just as he was desperately poking his head out, a gust of wind suddenly blew overhead, and the shadow of his wings flew past.All the penguins gathered together reflexively, and Fale happened to be in the outermost circle.He immediately thought that it was the damned skua, so he couldn't help but become very vigilant.If he dared to rush out rashly last time, he didn't dare to go out this time—the child is coming out soon—wouldn't it be a waste of success?

Claudio, of course, was out looking for food.Yes, he wasn't hungry, but it couldn't be said to be such a good experience.If he had kept up with the big army before, he must be eating fresh and sweet fish now, and living in a cliff cave under the sun.And now?Enduring the moodless polar night, the food is only ice-to-crisp eggs!

In such a comparison, his mood can't be too good.So after circling twice, he got tired of looking for ice eggs, and turned his attention to a large group of penguins.He quickly descended to the ground with the idea of ​​rattling the colony and accidentally dropping a newly hatched chick.Even if it's an egg, the soon-to-hatch egg should have a meaty taste, right?

Don't need to look at the light in his eyes, all the penguins know that the skua has bad intentions.But because of their size, skuas can't treat them like adults.So although they can't run fast, as long as they don't get confused, the skuas don't have much chance of succeeding.

Claudio faced such a group of united penguins.He didn't dare to attack rashly, he just walked around the penguin group, trying to find a breakthrough point.But after going round and round, he realized that he might have to return empty-handed today.I'm really not reconciled... He squinted his eyes, and suddenly his eyes lit up: Isn't that the one with the widest eyes, the guy who dared to chase him last time and finally picked up that weird ice egg?

Yes, after nearly two months, Claudio finally remembered the egg he had thrown around. "Hey, I said, I haven't seen you for a long time, young man!" He said with interest, "How's that egg?"

Farrar glared at him, but the legs tightened even more. "nothing dealing with you!"

But Claudio was very shrewd, and immediately saw his subconscious little movements. "It's still there? I have to admit, this is completely unexpected. Don't you worry about your useless work?"

"I said it has nothing to do with you!" Fa Le roared.He didn't know whether the skua did it on purpose or not, but saying so at this time undoubtedly hit him in the foot.About two-thirds of the penguin eggs have broken their shells, and there are delicate chirping sounds everywhere; there are many remaining, and the subtle sounds in the eggs can already be heard; however, he has not moved at all here!

The skua was amused by his furry gesture. "Looks like I'm right, you're so unfortunate." Although he said so, there was no sympathy in his tone. "It seems that I have finally found a bird that is more unlucky than me this winter!" He shook his head while talking, and the two slightly longer white feathers above his eyes trembled.

When Fa Le was ridiculed by him, the blood rushed to his head.Even if he said restraint to himself countless times in his heart before, he completely forgot at this time. "You bloody bastard!" he snarled, trying to attack, but his feet wobbled as he took a step, and he fell forward.At that moment, he suddenly thought of the problem, and quickly touched the approaching ice surface with his beak, supporting his body in the air.It's not fun to fall down, the weight will definitely hit the egg!

"Hahaha!" Claudio froze for a moment, then laughed out loud.He originally planned to provoke Fa Le and let the other party rush out by himself, but now he has forgotten everything: "You have really refreshed my understanding of emperor penguins! Can you wrestle on such a flat ground?"

He laughed so hard that he didn't even notice how Farrah was propped up on the tips of his claws and flippers. "Shut your beak!" Farrer raged, but he had learned his lesson and stopped trying to move.

"Don't be like this," Claudio still couldn't help laughing, his feathers were shaking all over his body, "Say it like you're not a bird... Hahaha!"

Farre would have blushed flushed with rage if it had been possible.The other emperor penguins around finally found the time to interject at this time, and advised him one after another: "Don't talk to him, it's not like you don't know that skuas are all eloquent guys." "Yes, and It is worthless for such a bird to be angry, think of your child!"

Look, emperor penguins are all like this, thinking that one thing more is worse than one thing less, so those with better eloquence can basically become elders.Fa Le also knew this, no matter how angry he was, he could only endure it.It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years, he comforted himself in his heart, even if he couldn't take revenge, wouldn't he still have his children...

Just as he was thinking of this, Fale suddenly felt a vibration under his abdomen.His first reaction was: It's broken, I didn't really crush the egg just now, did I?However, this thought did not last for a few seconds.Because in the next moment, there was a small sound of beeping, as if something was pecking at the eggshell.

Several penguins near Fale looked at each other, and then quickly pushed Fale, who hadn't reacted yet, into the inner circle. "Be careful, you have to watch the baby hatch!" they said nervously, "Don't let the skuas see it at the first sight!"

Only then did Fa Le realize that the sound was that the child was about to hatch.He immediately forgot about Claudio, and turned to puffing out his chest carefully and looking down at his balls.I saw a slit protruding from the top, and there was a light and wet gray inside.Ouch!Daddy's little baby!He shouted silently in his heart, extremely happy, and quickly helped to peck open the eggshell.

The skua actually had pretty good hearing, but Claudio was laughing too hard to notice the movement in time.It was only when he regained his senses that he noticed another delicate chirping sound nearby.Seeing the penguin's change of formation, he immediately guessed what happened, and couldn't believe it: "Wait? You won't tell me that that idiot is really a father, are you?"

But none of the emperor penguins answered him.Because all the penguins' attention was attracted by the newly born little penguins, and their heads were crowded together to make a pile.

"Look at this little one! What a little penguin!"

"Yes! I thought it must be something else..."

"You actually hatched an ice egg, Fale! You are the best dad this year!"

"Oh, he lifted his head up—the eyes are blue, which is rare!"

"Really? Let me see it too!"

AZ8765 retracted his head silently.He obviously calculated the time well, why did he still make it like this?Must have been reminded by that bloody skua... He figured out why right away, and made another note on the file.

Looking at the emperor penguins huddled together noisily, Claudio outside was dumbfounded and suddenly felt a chill all over his body.What a ghost, it's obviously not a egg!Or did the young penguin switch eggs to cuddle while he was sleeping?

The thought only existed in his head for a moment.Because he immediately thought, no matter what the reason, there must be such a little penguin.Thinking about what the other emperor penguins said just now, he suddenly felt a little regretful: It would be great if the little penguin saw him as soon as he opened his eyes!He doesn't need to work hard to deal with adult penguins, the little penguins will follow him automatically.

But Claudio also knows that this kind of thing can only be thought about.He reckoned that there was no chance of catching the little penguin today, so he spread his wings resentfully.

And what Claudio doesn't know is that even if it's just his idea, it will be discovered. AZ8765 heard the sound of the wind caused by the flapping of wings, and couldn't hold back his slander: Even if I saw you for the first time, I wouldn't recognize a thief as my father!Even though Calole was a bit silly, he did take good care of him; if it was Claudio, his life—no, Penguin’s life—would be ruined by countless failed high-altitude bungee jumps in a day!Even if he is essentially a charged particle and won't die, he doesn't want this kind of life, okay?

Claudio, who was about to fly to his lair, suddenly sneezed twice and almost hit the ice wall.Sure enough, the seaside is better, he said to himself in his heart, and looked back at the sky.A ray of dawn pierced the sky, illuminating half of the sky.After dawn, it will be almost spring, and he must hurry back to the beach, otherwise the beautiful skua girl will be snatched away by other bad guys.

And AZ8765 on the ice sheet faced a new problem before the problem of his name: Fale held himself back, and like other emperor penguin fathers, tried to spit out a little secretion from the crop to feed him .However, he is disgusted by the white and squishy things!Can he say he doesn't need to eat?Don't force it!Help... help!
