4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
Chapter 4 Evolution
Well, this is actually the second half of Chapter 3, which was not posted yesterday ...
..............................................................................
The strange cells seemed to be aware of the danger, and began to shake the body constantly, ejecting a large amount of green liquid, and several closer cells were dissolved and festered.
Kill it!
Lin's movement didn't stop, more cells rushed up, and when the next few cells were dissolved again, a jagged figure rushed out of their broken pieces.
That's a digger.
The saw teeth protruding from its body surface touched the hole-filled body of the strange cell, and the digger began to twist left and right. It was like digging food, scraping the body of the strange cell with serrations.
The cell membrane on the surface of the strange cell body was scraped off by the digger, and the strange cell was twisted painfully. It did not fight back with the green liquid. It could only spray a very small amount of liquid and could not hurt the harder surface of the digger .
Lynn noticed that these strange cells can only secrete a certain amount of fluid, which seems to be exhausted.
The digger didn't stop for a moment until he completely twisted the outer layer and inner layer of the strange cell together with the cell nucleus into fragments.
Joy, victory, and happiness.
Lin got a new feeling. They were completely opposite to the pain. Just like getting food, Lin felt full.
Lin asked a few cells to eat all the debris of the strange cells. These strange cells that secrete terrible lysate are no different from those white and soft foods. They are easily digested, except for one of the cells. He was injured by the remaining dissolving liquid and caused a little damage to his body.
Suddenly, this somewhat damaged cell split.
Splitting is a very special behavior, it can not only produce a new cell, but also completely repair the original damage.
But the new cells that split out seemed to be no different in Lin's eyes, except that the cell membrane was darker.
Lynn didn't know what special use it had, so she left it alone.
Lin looked away, and saw that the other strange cells were relatively far away, as if she hadn't noticed what happened to their companions, and was still eating her feast there.
Isn't their consciousness common?
Lin is a little strange, but it doesn't care.
Now Lin has thirty-nine cells, and a total of eleven were lysed by the strange cells. So Lin plans to continue to eat, supplement the previous amount, and then attack these strange cells.
Lynn knew that she had the ability to fight back, so she did not hesitate to use this ability to kill things that brought danger to herself.
Thinking, Lynn continued to let the cells eat the white food underneath. It needed more strength, quantity, intelligence ...
…………………………………… Chapter 4 begins here
Lin ’s cell swallowed on huge food. They had eaten a big and deep cave on this piece of food. Lin asked the diggers to dig in the front, followed by a large piece of The cells eat the debris they dig out.
Lynn wants to try it out, and what you will encounter if you keep digging, maybe there will be interesting things.
Lin ’s cell community has reached 100, of which there are 30 diggers, but there is always only one observer. Lin is very puzzled. Why does the new cell split by the observer have no vision?
Now Lin's hundred cells are in the big hole they eat. As for the strange cells outside, Lin still hasn't killed them after all, because after calculation, Lin felt a new word.
... not cost-effective.
To attack strange cells will sacrifice a lot of cells, probably a dozen or so because of the lysis solution, but eating strange cells can only divide into three new ones, so it is not cost-effective at all.
As the cell community increased, Lynn gradually gained computing power, and it believed that it would become smarter in the near future.
So, Lin decided to continue digging on this huge white food while eating.
As the digging progressed deeper, Lin found that it was no longer as soft and fragile as the surface, but it gradually became harder. After digging a little deeper, the digger began to struggle very hard. Saw the debris, as for ordinary cells, it is impossible to get a little crushed on it.
Although Lin wanted to continue digging, she seemed to have to give up. When she looked back, Lin found that her community was already in a deep place, and the hole in the cave looked very small.
Suddenly, Lin thought of a solution.
Do n’t the strange cells outside use the dissolving solution to dissolve the food?If you use them, you may be able to dissolve the hard parts of the food here.
But how do you use those solvents?It's probably not possible to catch them, but Lin remembered that there seemed to be a cell that ate the residual lysate after the strange cell fragments only showed some damage, and then successfully split out a new cell with some differences.
The new cell is darker in color, and the outer cell membrane is not as clear and transparent as other cell membranes. You can clearly see the nucleus inside. The cell membrane of this new cell is a bit cloudy.
So Lin planned to use this new cell to contact those strange cells.
Drilling out of the hole I ate again, Lin ’s observer cells quickly discovered the traces of the strange cells. Lin found that they did not eat and drill down like they did, but eat a little here and eat a little , Dissolve the flat surface of huge food with dissolving liquid.
Speaking of huge food, Lin did n’t yet know what the name should be, because it was soft and white, and from the small pieces at the beginning to the huge one, the edge could not be seen. Lin could n’t think of any good words, so she called it food.
But obviously, what can become food is definitely not only this soft and white thing, the types of food should be endless.
For example, those strange cells are actually food.
Lin's cell swam above them, including the observer and the new cell. Lin also brought out ten diggers, a total of twelve cells came out.
As for the others, Lin let them continue to eat in the cave and continue to grow and thrive.
The blame cells have no eyes, so they did n’t find Lin ’s colony, but Lin knew that they would know if they were too close, but it was n’t clear how Lin felt by what feeling.
There are five strange cells, it seems that there is one more than before, maybe it is divided by eating more.
Lin slowly swims to one of the strangest cells in the farthest group, and then let the new cells go forward first.
When the new cell approached, the strange cell responded. The dense hole in its body sprayed a lot of lysate, and the lysate easily surrounded the new cell.
The new cells did not decay into powder like ordinary cells in an instant, but only some signs of decay appeared on the outer membrane, but it did not affect the whole cell, and Lin could not feel any pain.
... it turned out that the new cell had the ability to resist the lysate.
This thought appeared instantly in Lin's thoughts.
I know what's going on ...
The previous cells were damaged by constantly rubbing food, so the cells they split became harder and saw teeth grew on the surface. This is the birth of the digger.
And this new cell is also divided by the cell damaged by the lysis solution, so it has the ability to resist the lysis solution.
What is this phenomenon called?
That's right ... that's ...
evolution!
Although she didn't understand the deeper meaning of the word, Lin knew that she could use this method to enhance her own cell community.
The pain hurt Lin's thoughts.
I saw that the surface layer of the new cell had been dissolved and rotted. Because of the invasion of the lysate, the entire cell also appeared to be about to collapse. It seems that even if it has resistance, it still cannot face the strange cell alone.
The strange cells, because they released a lot of lysate, showed a slow action, which can be described by the term collapse.
This is already very powerful, before Lin had sacrificed a dozen cells in total to consume the lysate of a strange cell.
This time it will be done with just one.
Facing the attack of the Diggers, the strange cells without lysate were quickly torn into pieces. As for these pieces, Lin let the Diggers eat them.
Next comes other strange cells.
But Lin discovered a problem. It has no new cells with the ability to resist lysate.
So Lin had to let these diggers who ate strange cell debris eat first, and then divide, so that they could probably produce the cells with resistance to the lysate.
However, after waiting for them to eat and divide, Lin found that the cells split by these diggers looked a bit strange.
The first is the shape. These diggers are no longer the circular shape of the previous cell, but one side becomes sharp and protruding, that is, a tapered shape, and a large number of serrations are arranged on the thread.
Seems to be able to drill holes and dig more.
The shape of these cells made Lin think so, but the resistance of these tapered cells to the lysate is still unknown.
So Lin planned to let these new cone cells attack other strange cells to see what effect they would have.
There are only three cone cells. Although 10 diggers ate the fragments of strange cells, only three of them split out the cone cells, and the remaining seven split out are ordinary diggers, maybe the amount of eating How much does it matter?
Lin let the two cone cells go up first, and the remaining one stays. Lin doesn't want to die like last time.
The cone cells directly attacked the strange cells with their cone heads. The strange cells had n’t had time to spray the dissolving liquid, and they were drilled away by the powerful attack cone, but this also caused it. Her body burst open and a lot of dissolved liquid was sprayed out.
One of the cone-shaped cells was covered with lysate and soon decayed into debris, while the other only had some damage on the cone-shaped hardened membrane because Lin pulled it back in time.
It seems that the resistance of cone cells is not strong, but it is much better than the basic cells.
But perhaps this damaged cell can divide into cells that are resistant to lysate.
and many more……
Lin suddenly remembered the original purpose, as if its purpose was not to make any resistant cells here, but to put the lysate of the strange cells into the hole and try to melt the hard parts of the food.
In this case……
Lynn's eyesight was locked on a large piece of lysate released after the blame cell died.
Maybe you can eat these liquids?
Lin felt that her ideas were getting richer.
