4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
259 Infected Place
I finally saw it again, this huge island-like creature-'Swimmer'.
This creature is carrying a lot of creatures on its back, and it is constantly shaking in the waves of the storm. Looking at the direction of its movement, it seems to be the same as Lynn.
Lynn ’s troops kept up with the swimmer. Its huge body was quite unstable at sea, and the creatures on its back had to gather in the center to avoid falling into the water.
Lin ’s air force flew over these creatures and observed them carefully. They all seemed to be in a state of mental distress. They were not affected by the storm. They were mainly due to lack of water and hunger. , So I did n’t starve to death like the group that Lin had seen before, but it was almost the same.
Now combined with the impact of storms, rain and air flow make them feel very cold, and if you continue this way, you may ...
Just when Lin thought that, a golden light suddenly sprinkled between the dark clouds in the sky, the surrounding airflow began to calm down, and the rain became smaller ...
The storm on the ocean is coming and going quickly, and eventually the dark clouds in the sky quickly dissipate, and the sea returns to a calm state.
So this is called "changeable"?
However, even if the storm stops, these creatures are still more dangerous. Now they need food and supplementary energy. Lynn observed that there are only about 100 reptiles on this swimmer. They have many different types, but the number is very large. Less, and not too big.
In this case, just take them back.
Lynn asked some bombers to take these weak reptiles back. Before that, they were fed some food with enough energy. Now that the plague has been stopped, there is nothing wrong with them going back.
And Lin continued to follow the swimmer to see where it would reach and it might be possible to go to the mainland.
Although this creature is large, it still moves very quickly. There are some magnet-like things in the swimmer's brain. They are estimated to rely on this to discern the direction.
In this way, Lin slowly followed the swimmers, and the bombers also sent those creatures back to the island. They apparently escaped from the island, so they quickly found their original nest, Lin found Some of them were surprised. Maybe they thought that the island would be destroyed by the "plague", but now they found nothing ...
In short, although not many, these creatures should be able to slowly restore the environment of the entire island.
On this side, Lin also saw the real island destroyed by the plague ...
During the time the swimmer was moving on the sea, Lynn found that it would indeed be close to some islands, generally some islands with creatures, regardless of size, it would probably dock on the shore for about 7600 seconds each time, although I do n’t know how The meaning of doing may be to rest, but it also allows some terrestrial creatures to rely on it to move between islands.
The swimmer is like an "ocean bus". After passing the islands along the way, many small creatures are boarded here, and now Lin sees an island ... When the island appears on the sea, the swimmer leaves It's far away, I don't want to be close at all.
Lynn let some troops fly closer and discovered that the island was the true face.
The whole island is not very big, about 300 meters in diameter, but the whole island is covered with a lot of ... fungi.
It seems that various fungi gather together, the ground is covered with a thick layer of mycelium, various huge mushrooms stand like trees on the island, the tallest is about five meters, and the stems of the mushrooms are still long It is filled with bizarre structures such as pompon, spikes, etc. They are covered with the whole island. This island is estimated to be covered with rich plants, so they grow so vigorously.
There are a lot of dust in the air, and Lynn ’s bomber ca n’t get close to the island to detect it, so Lin has created a new type of bacteria explorer. Lynn knows their ability to corrode by decomposing fungi, especially for this. A carapace has been created to protect against this type of corrosion, and the bacteriophage has this kind of carapace, a spherical floating arm with a diameter of about two meters, and has an oxygen balloon in the body. Swimming, it slowly drifted into the fungus island.
The bacteria probe moves slowly in a deadly environment full of bacteria dust. Lin feels like a jungle with rich plants. Various fungal structures cover the ground. The bacteria probe gently hits a tree in front. The larger mushroom tree, this mushroom suddenly appeared a crack, and there were a lot of silk thread and debris falling from the top.
This structure feels really fragile, presumably because it has exhausted the nutrients here, and now it has begun to die ...
The bacteriologist stretches out some tentacles, collects the debris of some fungi, and begins to break down the components of these fungi in the body.
Lin found that this fungus seems to be different from the locust's "plague fungus". They grow more slowly, but are otherwise the same, and are very aggressive.
Next, the bacteriologists observed the island. Lin didn't find any locusts or other special things. These fungi are estimated to be infected by the dust floating here.
After the exploration was completed, Lin asked Behemoth to aim the muzzle at the island and fired several newly developed incendiary explosive bombs. This explosive bomb would scatter a large amount of flames, and the flames would quickly contact the fungus. Spread and burn, because there are no locusts, these fungi will be completely burned by the flame before the reaction, and eventually the flame will burn the entire island.
These creatures are trouble ... They will only gobble up and down, if they eat everything, how will they survive?
After destroying the island, Lin continued to follow the swimmers to the west. Afterwards, in this sea area, Lin encountered some fungal islands. One of the island's fungi has not been 'eaten', and there are many animals and plants Wrapped in mycelium.
On some islands that are depleted of nutrients, the fungi on them will slowly start to die, and Lin finds that some fungi seem to be reluctant to wait for death. They have a strange way of predation. Sea creatures, such as flying fish jumping on the island, any creature that enters the island will soon be surrounded by mycelium and then decompose to death.
The swimmer dare not approach any island, and Lynn finds that it will be tired after moving for a long time at sea.
And Lin's approach to these islands ... burned completely.
After the last fungus-infected island was also destroyed by fire, the swimmer finally found a place to rest on the sea ...
This time, it's not an island.
