4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

78 The Dark Night of the New World

Darkness has enveloped the world. Lynn has experienced countless darkness, but this time it feels completely different.

It was very calm during the day, but as soon as it entered the night, many strange vibrations rang around.

These vibrations are very small, but the number is quite large, Lin found a better new word to describe these smaller vibrations, 'sound'.

Wonderful words, it seems that the vibration of the sound is very small, whether the frequency is fast or slow, and the tentacles behind Leviathan contain different sensory cells that can simultaneously receive vibrations of various frequencies. It is a kind of vibration with high frequency but quite small amplitude.

This is also called "sound", and only creatures can do it.

These are probably small creatures about a few centimeters in size, and they may make so many sounds intentionally for some reason.

Lynn didn't light the lantern in the dark, which might attract something unfriendly.

Lynn took a motionless plan. Leviathan and the transporter leaned against a spire and quietly waited for the dark to pass. The temperature at night was very low. The cold wind had swept all the moisture from their carapace. , But their carapace is thick enough not to leak a drop of water.

A hundred million years ago, Lin knew how to make a leak-proof carapace, but it was still not familiar with the characteristics of the land.

The starry sky is not as bright as it used to be. With the obscurity of the sharp pole, only a few small light spots can touch the ground, and in the shadows that the light cannot illuminate, there are some small sounds from time to time.

I don't know what kind of creature is hiding here.

These sounds grow louder and smaller, farther and farther, these creatures may be running around, Lynn staring at the light spots in the dark, trying to see them running through the stars.

By changing the structure in her eyes, Lynn created a new kind of eyeball called 'Eye of Capture', which can observe extremely fast movements.

Uh!

A black shadow flashed under the shattered starlight in an instant. Although it was extremely fast, its eyes still captured its appearance.

It seemed to be a small arthropod, about ten centimeters long and slender body, with six slender legs, but because of the lack of light, Lin did not see clearly.

These creatures were running around Lin, they kept making small sounds, seeming to ... communicate with each other, and the frequency is getting higher and higher, they seem to gather in large numbers around here.

Lin didn't move. It didn't know what the creatures wanted to do, but according to their body type, they shouldn't be able to do anything ...

But in this dark environment surrounded by a large number of strange creatures, Lin feels very bad.

'Ga ...'

A weird voice suddenly sounded from Leviathan. Lynn was shocked, and immediately stretched out the tentacles with lanterns to take photos of Leviathan. I saw that the small arthropods I had just seen crawled on Leviathan's back. Leviathan's carapace is biting with a pair of curved jaws.

After being photographed, the arthropods turned and jumped from Leviathan and quickly escaped.

Leviathan's carapace was bitten where there was no trace at all. Lynn was very surprised. Why did such a small creature dare to step forward and attack a creature so much larger than it?

Lin ’s doubts were not answered. The surroundings were still the quacks of the arthropods. They did n’t gather and attacked. They just wandered in the darkness around them. Lin swept with the light of the lantern and could n’t shine on them. Figure.

Do they seem to deliberately avoid the light?

Lin had a bad hunch, she withdrew the lantern tentacles and planned to look at the situation again.

At the moment when the lantern's light disappeared, Lin suddenly felt countless sounds, that is, the sound of their feet touching the ground. It was originally a very small sound that was extremely difficult to feel, but because of the large number, it became very clear.

Countless small arthropods rushed up, and even if she didn't have to look at it, she knew that they all climbed to Leviathan and the transporter, and scraped the carapace with curved fangs.

Although Lin ’s carapace is lighter than when it is in the sea to fit the land, it is not thinner, and its fragile parts, such as tentacles, can be retracted into the shell, the troop outlet, and the spout can also be closed. No matter whether it is Leviathan or the transporter, it will not hurt a bit, but their teeth may collapse first.

The small arthropods also seemed to understand, but they were still crawling around Leviathan and the transporter, and suddenly they touched some holes in Leviathan that were not closed.

That is a small hole for absorbing oxygen, the diameter is quite small, and even these small arthropods cannot get into it.

To Lin's surprise, a burst of pain dare to suddenly come from the stomata, which is the feeling that the inner wall cells are corroded.

Will they still use dissolving solution?Lin squeezed the muscle cells on the inner wall of the stomata, spurting a stronger solution of liquid, spattering on the arthropods surrounding the stomata.

"Ga ..." They were hurt and made a weird sound, but still did not step away from Leviathan.

It's really troublesome.

Lin stretched out the tentacles of the lantern again. At the moment they extended, they immediately surrounded the tentacles, but at the moment when the light of the lantern shone, these small arthropods seemed to have suffered greatly, and all escaped while making a strange noise. Too.

Lin used the same method to drive away the arthropods on the transporter, but although they escaped, they still wandered around and refused to disperse.

It seems I have to leave here, I don't know what these creatures will do.

Leviathan and the transporter ran quickly in the dark forest of the spikes. The arthropods were always behind, and they kept making strange noises, but they seemed to be afraid of Leviathan ’s lanterns. Dare to catch up.

In this forest of needle columns, I don't know which way to go. Lin just wanted to try and see if she could get rid of the group of arthropods.

Numerous needle posts kept going back, and after running for a while, Lin felt that the voice behind him came down.

Have you given up?

Lin turned the lantern to the rear, seeing nothing but sand and mud. When Lin turned the light back to the front again, a shadow suddenly appeared on the ground not far in front of Leviathan.

what is that?

The black figure was huge, and Leviathan looked closer, only to find that it was familiar.

A shark.

To be precise, it is the remains of a shark. This shark is two meters long. It should have been thrown to this location by the tsunami. The middle part of its body was eaten a lot, leaving some internal organs sprinkled on the surrounding muddy ground, head The part and tail are completely free of gnaw marks.

Lynn wondered what kind of creature had eaten the corpse, but it was left behind after eating, and there were no other creatures around to eat it.

The shark's body exudes a characteristic smell of carrion. Although this is quite disgusting to some creatures, most creatures should treat it as a signal of food.

There was a bad feeling, Lin immediately let Leviathan and the transporter turn away, they ran again quickly, and when Lin fled, there was a strong sense of shock immediately behind him.

Something huge is moving, and it is in the direction of Lin.

The speed of Leviathan and the transporter is actually very slow, because the body's excessive water is too heavy, the speed is far less than in the water, Lin is not yet clear how the structure on the land can run faster.

Feeling the huge creature behind him, Lin suddenly realized that the shark corpse was a ... trap?

possible……

But this is not important anymore. Lynn withdrew the lantern. Although the speed was not fast, she still tried her best to escape.

The huge creature that used a shark as a trap just chased it a little bit, and then backed away, not intending to keep chasing it.

Lin didn't stop and was running all the time.

The needle forest in the night is full of strange sounds and smells. In the daytime, it is extremely quiet here, it is difficult to see a creature, but at night, it seems to be active.

During the continuous running, the attachment legs of the transporter are almost overwhelmed. The excessive movement of the internal muscle cells will cause the cells to be torn or die directly.

Even Leviathan was tired because he was unfamiliar with the gravity of the land, but Lin continued to run until she confirmed that she was not too close to any dangerous sound and smell before stopping.

However, there was a scent that echoed around Lynn for a long time.

That's ... the smell of carrion.
