4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
Chapter 34: The Creatures of the Desert in the Sea
In front of you is an endless beach, empty waters, and countless eccentric multicellular creatures on the sand. Behind is a thick layer of ice. There is nothing but ice-dissolving bacteria in it.
What should Lin do?go ahead?Or back?
Lin didn't know the capabilities of these multicellular organisms. After all, she faced the Great Shield Worm with great losses, but Lin didn't want to retreat. This may be an opportunity for evolution, and Lin needs food.
None of these creatures seem to be moving, but are fixed on the sand. Lynn may be able to find one that looks good to deal with and kill it.
But Lin did n’t know which one to deal with, and her body size was n’t the point. The most obvious example was the virus. It ’s so small, but so scary.
These multicellular organisms are all very large, and you can get a lot of food by just killing a Lynn.
Thinking, Lin's aircraft carrier began to swim, it floated above these biomes, eyeballed tentacles looking for the target below.
In the end, Lin locked her target as a creature standing in the sand. The body of the creature was round and flat and the length was the same as that of Lin ’s aircraft carrier, but its thickness was about the same as that of the aircraft carrier ’s cortex. , The body that supported the flat and long swayed in the water, Lin did know clearly after approaching this time, it was capturing the cells washed by the current.
Lin intends to call it "leaf-shaped insect". Although Lin does not know what "leaf" is, she feels very suitable for it.
The leaf surface of the leafworm has a striped structure, and the gaps between the stripes are covered with a lot of flagella. If the swimming single cells hit, they will be caught by the flagella and then pulled in to eat.
Lin felt that this creature was a bit like herself once, fixed on the rock, capturing the swimming creature, and living a passive and boring life.
Sure enough, it's right to give up that kind of life. If you don't move like this, you can only be preyed.
The aircraft carrier slowly approached the leaf-shaped insect. After confirming that the other party had no counterattack ability, Lin lifted the hammer-shaped tentacles and slammed the leaf-shaped insect.
However, this bug, which looked flat and shattered at the moment of the attack, withstood the attack. It did n’t even bend its body. It was still standing in the sand without moving, and the stripes on the body were not damaged at all. It's just that the flagella on the top have shrunk in.
It's really hard, so is this the reason they don't move?It seems that the leaf-shaped worm is covered with a very hard shell like the shield worm. However, unlike the movable shield worm, the leaf-shaped worm has no joints and no mouth. After inside, it becomes a creature without weakness.
However, Lin ’s hammer can only be knocked once. Under the continuous supply of blood vessels, it can quickly and continuously swing the tentacles. The hammer hits the surface of the leaf-shaped insect body again and again, striking in countless hammers. Next, the leaf-shaped worm finally couldn't stabilize his body and began to shake.
The leaf-shaped insect really does not have any counterattack ability, and can only use a hard shell to resist external attacks. Other creatures may start to bite and give up, but Lynn thinks that such non-stop hammering is helpful for evolution, so It hit harder.
Eventually, the outer shell of the leaf-shaped insect could not bear the hammer of Lin, and a crack appeared on the surface of the body, and some cells inside flowed out of the crack.
Lin's devourer immediately dispatched and devoured all the cells that had flowed out.
Then, Lin continued to attack the fissure, making the wound there bigger, and letting more cells keep pouring out.
Lin has a strange feeling that these cells are not capable of attacking. Why does it flow out from inside?If the skin of the aircraft carrier Lin is torn, the cells inside the aircraft carrier will never leak a little bit, even if it is a blood vessel, Lin can stop the heart beat so that the contents inside will not flow out.
But other multicellular organisms ... seems to be unable to control their own cell flow?
It's really strange.
No matter how much Lin is, she continues to hammer on the shell of the leaf-shaped insect. Although Lin's hammer is also damaged, Lin does not care to continue the attack. Anyway, it is a simple matter to repair.
The shell of the leafworm is not as hard as the buckworm, and it is a sandbag that does not move. Under the attack of Lynn, the cracks on the shell are more and more. The soft multi-cell structure was exposed to Lin's eyes.
Ok?Sandbags?It seems to be a very interesting word.
While thinking, Lin urged the devourers to bite the structure of the leaf-worm and turn everything in it into nutrients for Lin's growth.
Lin found that the leaf-shaped insects also have a blood vessel-like structure, but they do not have the heart's "pump", but instead drive the water flow through a tentacle-like cell in the blood vessel. Somatic cells, or simple combinations, in general, there is nothing worth learning by Lin ...
The only thing the leafworm is useful for Lin is that it can eat.
Lin's devourer quickly ate up the leafworm, leaving only a pile of broken shells. Although the leafworm is long but flat, it is not enough to eat one, but eating another Lin is enough nutrients to resurrect the Buckler worm. Too.
After recovering the engulfed devourers and repairing the wound on the hammer, Lynn began to look around and look for the next target again.
Ok?
Lin suddenly noticed a disc-shaped object on the sand in front.
Is this a creature?
Lin swims over and observes this thing carefully. The surface of this disc-shaped object has spiral stripes. Its size is only half of Lin ’s aircraft carrier. The lower part is buried in the sand. I do n’t know the specific size, although it seems that it should be It's a creature, but Lynn has never seen this thing moving, and she doesn't know how it preyed.
Knock to see?
Lin's wielding sledgehammer slammed onto the disc, leaving the disc immobile, but Lin felt the pain of rebounding from the hammer's tentacles.
The hammer-shaped tip of the tentacles is hard to feel, and Lin can still feel pain, which means that the muscle cells inside the tentacles have been injured by the shock.
How hard is this thing to have this effect?In short, it is not comparable to the hardness of the leaf worm. This disk is even harder than the head shield of the buckworm.
A strong thought suddenly appeared in Lin's mind.
What is this kind of thought?Lin doesn't know how to describe it, but it knows that when she hit the leaf-shaped insect's shell before, Lin's thoughts will produce a 'possible shattering' and 'promising' idea.
When hitting this disc-shaped creature, Lin's thoughts instantly produced the ideas of 'hopeless' and 'never impossible to break'. Even if the hammer is knocked, it will not be able to make a crack on it.
But Lin didn't go on with the experiment. How did it know that it would produce this kind of result?
By the way, the word is called 'computing power', right?
As long as it is the first time, you can think of the final result based on the information you obtained.
It feels very good. Lynn may have this ability early, but it is only now realizing it.
Lin gave up and continued to attack the disc. Although it may be possible to dig it out, there are still many leaf-shaped insects around, which is not worth Lin's time wasting here.
Lin swims to a smaller leaf-shaped insect nearby, and starts a continuous hammering attack again. Soon, this sandbag will also become Lin's nutrient.
This beach is full of leaf-shaped insects, which is simply wonderful for Lin. If you eat them, it will be more efficient than eating those single cells, and these sandbags will not fight back at all, and will not move. It seems like here There is no other predator like the buckworm, there is no better situation!
Lin will use the resources here to grow and evolve again, as long as it is strong to a certain degree, she will no longer be afraid of other predators.
Lin, thinking so, didn't seem to notice that something was creeping in the sand below the aircraft carrier ...
