4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

I don't know how long it has passed.

After that disaster, Lin blocked the entrance to the cave with a large number of cells and never opened it again.

Because through the transparent cells, it can see that the bubbles floating in the water have not been reduced, even if there are no green cells here.

Lin has tried to make cells evolve to resist these bubbles, but every cell that inhales the bubble will always die immediately, and no one can successfully survive and split out resistant cells.

Lin could only stare at the entrance of the cave, observing the countless alternations of day and night, hoping that one day he would be able to return to the outside water again.

But the bubbles that never seem to disappear have blocked Lin ... But the food in the cave called white paste is not endless.

These white creams that are constantly emerging on the wall of the cave begin to slowly reduce the production. This process is slow and long, and it has little effect on Lin at the beginning, but with the increase of time, these white creams are gradually unable to supply Lin. The community, at the end, did not even show up at all.

When Lin finished the last paste, the entire cave became an ordinary rock cave.

Lin had thought about digging down, but no matter how it digs, it can't dig out the white paste. What it can see is that there is no white paste in the rock except the stone or the stone.

And in the last dig, Lin even dug out a few bubbles, which made Lin have to stop digging.

Lin started by devouring those light bacteria that were still alive, and then began to consume the fat cells in her community. These cells let Lin stay for a long time again.

But it's useless. The bubbles outside haven't decreased, but there is a tendency to increase.

In the last resort, the fat cells were also exhausted. Lin began to consume other cells other than fat cells, that is, killing them, and using their dead bodies to feed the remaining cells.

It ’s not a good idea to eat your own cells to survive. Lin ’s once vigorous community began to shrink, and the number fell rapidly. After a period of time, Lin ’s community has dropped from the original tens of millions to only several thousand.

The layers of cell walls stuck in the cave were already dead, but their bodies were still stuck there, preventing the bubbles from floating in.

Lin understood that this was a slow process of death.

Lin had never stopped letting some cells go outside to let them evolve resistance to bubbles, but it has never been successful.

Can you only wait for death?

... not like that.

At the last moment, Lin gathered the remaining cells and formed them into a sphere with the observer in the center.

Lynn made these cells together and hardened the outer layer.

This sphere is in the center of the cave, and Lin called it a "cocoon", and after the "cocoon" made it, it took the next step, which it called "sleeping."

In the state of 'sleeping', the cells will appear completely still. In this state, almost no food will be consumed. This is a state for long-term waiting. Lynn thinks that in this state, it will wait. Will not die for a long time.

However, after sleeping, Lin ’s consciousness will fall into darkness, which will completely break the connection with the outside, it will feel nothing, I do n’t know how long it has passed, I do n’t know the changes in the surrounding environment, and I do n’t know when it should be. Regain consciousness.

Lynn didn't think too much, it could only look forward to a better future.

Lin thinking so slowly fell into a deep sleep, and the image seen by the observer became blurred in its consciousness, and finally fell into darkness ...

…………

Time, in the constant passage of time, under countless changes of day and night, many changes have taken place in the surrounding world, but Lin did not realize that it was still in a sleeping state, and Lin did not customize for herself exactly when to wake up, because It does not know when it is safe.

However, in addition to Lynn ’s consciousness, its cells have the ability to judge things around them.

This is also what Lin meant, and let the cell determine whether it should wake up.

"........."

Not knowing how long the time has passed, Lin finally feels the wake-up message.

Was it successful?Is there no danger around?

The observer slowly shakes his body, and when Lin's consciousness recovers, the light is full of its thoughts again.

The hardened outer layer of the 'cocoon' also slowly fell off and peeled off while Lin was awake, and the cells hiding inside swam out again, touching the outside world.

At first glance, what Lin could see was the surrounding cave. It was the same as it was when it was asleep, with little change.

However, Lynn saw the things that once scared it-those bubbles are actually everywhere in the cave!

But Lin didn't think about running away, because since she could wake up, there must be a reason.

Lynn watched one of the cells being touched by a bubble. It was integrated into the cell as before, and then ...

Nothing happened.

The bubbles did not kill the cells as before. Lin was quite sure that these bubbles were what was called 'oxygen'. These things would have destroyed the nucleus of the cell and caused Lin to feel a sharp pain, but now she feels nothing.

Has it evolved?

Yes, after evolution, Lynn developed resistance to these bubbles, although I don't know how much time it took and how many cells died.

But as long as you can survive, all this is worthwhile.

So now, it is the time of resurrection!

Lin also found that there are a variety of small cells on the wall around the cave. During sleep, other cells ran into the hole ** It is not surprising, and this is equal to Lin ’s free The food is gone.

What is 'free'?What a weird word.

Forget it so much.

Lin now feels in a good mood. Almost all the cells it keeps are basal cells, and there are some thorn cells and other cells. Although there are not many, Lin is very happy that they can survive.

Lin immediately let the basic cells begin to deform quickly, partly as diggers and partly as acid injectors. After the transformation was completed, they quickly began to hunt the wild cells around.

These little cells have little ability to fight back, and soon became a food to celebrate Lin's resurrection.

In the process of hunting cells, Lin found some interesting situations. The cells that inhaled the bubbles are not nothing.

Contrary to the original, the cells that inhaled the oxygen bubbles will become more rapid than before, and the speed and power, almost no matter what, have been improved a lot.

why?Are these cells not only resistant to oxygen, but can they also be used to enhance themselves?

This is ... strange.

but why?Does oxygen contain some kind of magical energy?

I still can't understand it.

Lin's cells gaining new power quickly killed the surrounding cells and quickly split, Lin decided to restore the previous community's grandeur.

However, this time Lin did not want to stand by and wait for the rabbit. It decided to form a form that could swim quickly and actively pursue and hunt in the water.

Wait ... what are the "strain" and "rabbit" stuff?

Why are there always some inexplicable words?Although Lin means "shou" and "wait", what are "strain" and "rabbit"?

I don't want to have such strange words again!

Although Lin thought so, it thought these words would still come out.

……………

After a small episode, Lin began to assemble its cells.

Because of the help of oxygen, Lin found that these cells grew and divided much faster than before, and the combination was even faster.

Lin quickly assembled a special thing.

Can help it travel ... the body.
