4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
Chapter 43 Barren World
The new combination is called "Explorer", it is only half the size of the guardian, it is covered with a thin armor oval body, the carapace has many small holes for inhaling oxygen, the head has two eyeballs and Lantern tentacles for lighting have a small heart and blood vessel structure inside.
Around the body, there are a total of eight arthropod legs covering the carapace. Lynn added joint parts similar to the round shield worm to these arthropods, and added muscles filled in the arthropods to make it move quickly.
The purpose of the combined "Explorer" is not to hunt or kill the enemy, but to explore the world beyond the water!
Lin loves to explore unknown areas. She has always had this idea since she reached the water by chance last time, and after successfully manufacturing the carapace, this idea can finally be realized.
Lin did not come here during the day, but chose a safer night. Although there was a carapace, Lin would not know if she could resist ultraviolet light without water.
The explorer set off, and it climbed uphill quickly. Most of the places are made up of gravel, which is very easy for the explorer to walk.
The water surface is still very high in the dark, so it is not visible now.But the lanterns made by Lin for the explorer are different. Lin made the light sphere no longer emit light all over the body, but focused the light-emitting parts to one side and combined them in one direction to form a lantern, and then covered the lantern with shells on both sides. In this way, the light emitted by them can shine farther, as long as the lantern tentacles are lifted, they can see the location of the water surface.
As the explorer moved uphill, the position of the water surface has become lower and lower, and the surrounding environment has also changed from the original gravel land to small yellow-brown sand. Lin was the first to see this color of sand grain.
The explorer soon approached—the junction between the water and the ground.
As long as she walks there, Lin can leave the water and set foot in the realm of gas.
There is a feeling called 'excitement'.
It seems that leaving the water is a very important event, so this feeling will happen.
Lin herself doesn't think so. It thinks it's just to explore a new area. Lin herself didn't plan to go up, just to satisfy her 'curiosity', but why do you feel this way?Lynn didn't know.
In short, just continue to do it.
The explorer's body slowly surfaced with its pace, and Lin felt the sense of nihility that belongs to the realm of air again. The stars shining above this space, illuminating the road ahead for Lin.
In this new world, Lin called it "land", without lanterns, the light of the stars could make it see everything.
'Land' is a barren place, it is covered with yellow-brown debris and sand, and there is nothing but a few boulders standing occasionally in it.
Ke Lin did not stop.
The explorer took another step, and its limbs also left the water with the body and set foot on a new world.
Then it fell.
After leaving the water, the gravitational force seems to be much larger in an instant, and it instantly drags Lin's explorer to the ground, making it unable to move.
The armor made by Lynn is to deal with this, but it seems that the muscles still need to coordinate.
Thinking, it quickly repaired the muscles inside the arthropod, allowing the cells to quickly divide and strengthen until they could prop up the body on the land with huge gravity.
Under the rapid repair of the cells, the explorer soon stood up again, it will not fall again this time.
The explorer moved the arteries around his body to this barren world ...
On land, cold air currents replace water currents. They have a faster frequency than water currents. They blow up sand on the ground and hit the explorer's shell. Lin has a word to describe them-'wind'.
Lin found that water in this world, just like gas in water, became small round particles. As long as the wind blew, it could take away countless drops of water and blow it endlessly in the wind Next, the explorer's originally wet crust quickly became as dry as the sand at its feet.
Stepping into a new world, Lin got a lot of new words, but it began to feel ...
Very boring.
The explorer walks at a slower speed on the land, but in its field of vision, there is endless yellow sand, or occasionally some huge stones appear.
Apart from that, there is nothing, no multi-celled organisms, no single-celled organisms, only the yellow sand flying in the sky and the screaming cold wind. Although the sky of the sky is so beautiful, the earth is so barren and empty.
Lin's original curiosity and excitement about the land have almost disappeared, and she has no mood to ignore the seemingly interesting new words, but silently let the explorer go step by step.
There is no creature here, which means there is no food. Lin even found a new problem. After the wind blows the water out of the explorer's shell, Lin can feel that the water in the explorer's body begins to drain slowly.
They flowed out of some holes or small cracks in the shell, and then were blown by the air flow into countless small drops of water, flying away in the sky, disappearing without a trace.
Lin has always lived in water, and she has never felt what it was like to lose water.
But it knows now, that symbolizes death.
Cells that lose water will die instantly, and cracks in the carapace must be repaired.
Under the carapace of the explorer is a large number of gland cells. They can quickly secrete chitin to repair various cracks. The carapace originally made by Lin is not as comprehensive as it is covered, but now it seems to be completely covered.
Soon Lin filled all the cracks, leaving only two small holes for ventilation.
Lin knew why there were no other creatures, because they couldn't live without water.
And in this barren world, there is nothing that can attract other creatures.
But Lin didn't give up, and the explorer had been walking deeper on the land.
If I look back now, I can't see the sea anymore, but the surrounding scenery is still the same, except sand is stone, which reminds Lin when she was a child.
At that time, it seemed to have a similar feeling, that is, "except water is water".
The fat cells stored in the explorer's body can let it go for a long time, but Lin has begun to doubt the significance of this journey.
It's really boring.
In a uniform environment, Lin turned her attention to the top, and found that the sky of the sky would change slowly. Those light spots sometimes moved slowly, and occasionally even a ray of light traversing the sky at high speed, but mostly The points are generally kept still.
After ascending to land, Lin discovered that the starry sky was quite far away from her. Perhaps, she had to swim in the air like water to get close to them.
That ... too difficult.
At this time, a slightly different object appeared in front of the explorer.
dune.
Sand dunes are often seen on sandy beaches in the water, and Lin generally doesn't pay much attention, but the dunes on the land should provide Lin with more vision.
The explorer climbed up, watching the distance from the top of the dune.
Sure enough, until the end of the field of vision, it was still dust.
This place really has no meaning at all.
Lin doesn't want to go anymore. It lets the explorer lie on the sand dune and raises her head to look at the starry sky above.
Lin found that all the light spots in the star sky would move, and as the star sky continued to change, the surrounding light would also change.
Slowly, the surroundings began to light up, while the stars in the sky slowly disappeared.
They are all covered by the light of 'daylight'.
The day is coming.
When the surroundings were completely shrouded by the light of day, Lin felt that the temperature in the air had risen a lot. The extremely strong ultraviolet rays rushed straight into the joints of the explorer's limbs and the stomata on the body, destroying them at a rapid rate Holding the cells in it.
As the daytime light becomes brighter, its ultraviolet rays can even directly penetrate the explorer's shell, and the cells inside are rapidly dying.
The next moment, the explorer died, and Lin ’s land journey ended.
Let's go back……
The aircraft carrier staying in the shoal slowly turned around and swam into the deep sea.
What a trip ... a meaningless journey.
