4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
Chapter 66: Fragmented Newt
Amphibians seem to mean a group of creatures, not the name of a certain creature. For this creature, Lin found that there are further words in the vocabulary.
Lava salamander.
what is this?It feels a weird name ... this amphibian seems to have evolved from some finfish. Although there is no record of its evolution, it is really similar to those fish.
The lava salamander is obviously a predator. It flicked its tail and opened its jaws full of teeth to bite towards Leviathan ’s tail.
Leviathan can escape with only one acceleration, and the speed of the lava salamander cannot catch up with Leviathan, but Lynn does not intend to escape like this.
The killer who just killed the arrowstone has almost grown a new belly full of poisonous needles. The new armament made by Leviathan has a high reuse rate, and unlike other arms, it comes with a set. Complete organ.
Lynn let the slaughterer swim in front of the lava salamander and swayed. Sure enough, the lava salamander was suddenly attracted to the past, and the slaughterer was bitten into two segments in one bite.
This power is too strong ... It seems that it can't be reused, but the stinger in the killer has exploded, and the other party will not live long.
However, what makes Lin feel strange is that this lava salamander has no problem. It continues to devour the remains of the killer and eats nothing left.
Strange, is it immune to toxins?
Lin suddenly discovered that the back of the lava salamander eating the slaughter started to glow bright red, as bright as lava, and very similar to the color of the slaughter's abdomen.
So it is called 'lava salamander'?Can it also secrete similar toxins?
After the lava salamander had eaten the slaughterer, it turned its head and swam away, seemingly not interested in Leviathan.
Lin immediately followed, looking at Leviathan's arms catalog at the same time to see if there were any arms suitable for dealing with this lava salamander.
Leviathan has a lot of arms, but Lin does n’t know which one to use, so he chooses one casually. This type of arm is called a "crusher" and it seems to be used against heavy armor targets, although lava salamanders are not heavy armor types. But it doesn't matter.
Leviathan created more than a dozen crushers. This armament has an elliptical body, no carapace, and is only 13 centimeters long. It has a flat long tail to swim, and the head has a pair of hardened small hammer heads. Arthropod.
This attack method feels much like the previous aircraft carrier, but this is so small, what attack power can it have?
Lin carefully looked at their internal structure, only to realize that these little things are not simple.
Lin made these breakers rush to the lava salamander, and it didn't pay attention at first. Then Lin made a breaker close to the back of the lava salamander, and then slammed his forelegs.
Snapped……
Almost for a moment, Lin ’s eyeball could n’t even tell the speed of the hammer swing. The power of this small hammer caused the cortex of the lava salamander to burst directly. The internal blood vessel cells were uncontrolled with a strange red liquid. A large amount of gushing out, it seems that the lava salamander hides the toxin in the cortex on the back.
'Skin fleshy' Lin found that there is a fun word to describe this phenomenon.
The lava salamander turned around with pain and opened his mouth wide to bite directly at the crusher. Numerous sharp teeth and pressure from his jaws bite it into debris.
But at this time, the other breakers also attacked together. They knocked the abdomen, tail, and head of the lava salamander, and wounded wounds on it.
The lava salamander twisted its body and tried to escape. It had no intention of fighting, but Lynn would not let it go. The crusher continued to catch up, striking the remaining intact parts of the lava salamander, while some directly attacked the skin and exposed it. Muscles and other structures.
The lava salamander burst blood under continuous attack, and the muscle structure on the hands and feet was also destroyed. It has lost its ability to swim and twisted its body to sink to the bottom of the sea.
What a strong feeling ... the breaker.
The attack method of the breaker is very similar to the aircraft carrier, but the internal structure is different. They do not rely on muscle expansion and contraction to strike the hammer like the aircraft carrier. Instead, they use a very complicated pressure system. Simply put, it is the arthropod posterior joint Using muscles to squeeze the liquid to the anterior segment, combined with the strength of the upper muscles and the three layers of hard shells on the hammer, can cause great damage.
No wonder it's the armament used for heavy armor, but it is also effective for non-heavy armor.
Now, relying on these forces, Lin easily obtained a prey, but in this era, it seems that it is not so easy to eat at ease. The blood and cells ejected from the wound of the lava salamander attract some creatures to come here ...
shark.
They have the best sense of smell. They can find biological injuries more than a thousand meters away, and once they are more than a dozen, Leviathan has to retreat. Lin feels that even if Leviathan ’s arms are even more powerful, it will be difficult to deal with. Many sharks.
This era is really different ... Once Lin hunted, no creatures would come to snatch prey, but Lin is not worried now that sharks will snatch lava salamanders.
A shark approached the body of the lava salamander. After biting it, it suddenly twisted its body like a great pain and escaped like crazy.
That is the toxin of the lava salamander. It stores the poison in the cortex. When the crusher smashes the skin of the lava salamander, the toxin is of course released in large quantities.
After seeing the remaining sharks, they also lost interest in lava salamanders and swam away.
It seems that their intelligence is quite high, Lin thought they would try each one ... so nothing would disturb Lin eating.
Leviathan itself does not seem to have the resistance to poison, but the slaughterer does, just like the lava salamander is not afraid of the poison of the slaughterer. The slaughterer can also devour the flesh and blood of the lava salamander.
Lin only knew at this time why the killer brought a complete set of organs, maybe the killer was specifically used to deal with things that Leviathan could not digest, and then could separate the nutrients and toxins inside and separate the toxins Stored in those needle cells in the abdomen.
How did Leviathan evolve such a magical thing?This is so interesting ...
Lin only read a small part of Leviathan's life memory and arms data. If it is too boring to read all from the beginning, it will be more interesting to try out their ability.
Lin made several slaughtermen and let them eat up the corpses of the lava salamander. The body structure of the lava salamander is quite complicated. Just like its ancestor flatfish, it has a spine, but this spine can be more developed, but Lin has not Want to learn.
It ’s better to continue to try Leviathan ’s new recruits, and Lin should also go to the land to see what is happening to the oxygen situation.
Suddenly, Lin saw a large group of helmeted fish not far in front of them, they lined up and swam in one direction.
That is the breeding activity of helmet fish ...
From the memory of the eyeball, Lin knew what these helmet fish were doing, and these helmet fish would go together to a special area to perform an activity called 'spawning'.
This is why they can still thrive in such a dense water area as predators, even with such obtrusive head armor.
Lynn knew where they were going, so she followed.
The shadow of the land appeared in front of the huge helmet fish swam, and they swam together to the center of the land, where a huge rift appeared.
The rift is a long and narrow channel that leads directly to the depths of the land. Lin knows that this channel can be called a 'river'.
In the change of the environment, not only the bottom of the sea will be broken, but even the land will split, so that the water in the sea will flow into the cracks on the land.
However, Lin felt that the water in the nick called the "river" did not flow from the sea, but came out of the land, because the water in it ... is a little weird.
Helmets flock to Hanoi on a large scale. At the entrance of the river, dozens of sharks are ambushing. They seem to have expected the helmets to arrive here. This is indeed a rare feast.
The helmetfish ignored the shark and continued to rush into the river. Even if the companions beside him were torn by the shark, they continued to move forward. Those helmetfish that successfully entered the river were not dared to chase them.
In rivers, the water inside lacks something called 'salt', so if sea creatures enter the river at will, something very strange will happen, such as organ burst and so on.
Lynn didn't enter the river, the knowledge came from the words.
Helmets seem to be able to change the circulatory system of the body, so they can live in rivers and seas, but does Leviathan have this ability?
Would you like to try it in?
