4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
366 The 106th Crystal
Crystallization is a very wonderful thing. Ever since Lynn used crystals to gain vision, she has always had such an idea.
There are quite a few types of crystals, some can be made into crustaceans, some can absorb light energy, there are very few or even allow organisms to gain vision, and some crystals are also related to the organism of "crystal fungi". For hundreds of years, these fungi have nothing special Changes, in fact, most organisms grow crystalline crust and crystal bacteria have a certain relationship.
And now under Leviathan, a group of crystalline creatures appeared. They looked like the size of Brondu scorpion, and they had the same shape. They were about one meter long, and maybe two meters. Covered with shiny carapace, even the tip of the tail hook crystallized.
Lin hadn't seen this kind of creature before. These 'crystal scorpions' wandered between the crystal trees, as if there was no purpose. When Leviathan approached, they all raised crystal pliers to express intimidation.
Are they evolutionary types of Brondu scorpions?Lin is interested in them. This is the largest arthropod you can see at present. They should have some special breathing methods. The Jade Dragon ’s studio did not record these creatures, but Lin believes that the Jade Dragon has been to this place because of the nearby All other creatures have records.
As for now, let's find Susumi first ... Where will Susumi be?So many days and nights passed, maybe it was already dead, so it would be more difficult to find its body.
Leviathan flew into the crystalline trees. The wonder of this place is not only the crystalline creatures. The other jungle grounds are covered with dead leaves and covered with many dwarf plants, but the ground here is everything. No, only rocks and some gravel, and the crystal scorpion only swayed at the edge of the forest, and I didn't see it in the depths.
These trees are standing in this dry place. These crystalline trees are not very dense. Each tree is at least six meters away from the other tree. There is a feeling of 'uncoordination'. The reason why Leviathan came is also trying to figure it out. Know what is going on in this area.
Leviathan slowly lowered the height by controlling the gas content in the body. Now it is only about one meter from the ground, and the surrounding crystal trees block Leviathan's vision.
At this time, Lin felt the previous feeling, as if the surroundings had become cold, but Lin could judge that the temperature had not changed by the fact that the cell activity was still normal.
It's just that the sensory organs receive this 'cold' signal.
...... It's strange that this strange feeling echoed in the crystallized trees, and Lin felt like she was being stared at by some creature.
Right there!
Suddenly Leviathan turned around and blasted a detonation bomb at a crystalline tree next to it!
'boom!'Under the sound of blasting, the crystalline debris splashed everywhere, and the internal structure of the tree was exposed ... but nothing else happened.
Is there a creature that can hide Leviathan's sensory organs?Although it hasn't been updated in a long time, Lin did find a voice out there just now.
Leviathan flew to the blasted tree, stretched out his tentacles, scraped the internal structure of some trees and engulfed them. There is no difference between these trees and ordinary trees. It should not be theirs. It must be hidden here. Creature.
This 'cold' feeling will also affect the sense of smell, it seems that it must be detected by other organs.
Use sound?No, there are some new ways. Lin has done a lot of research on electricity, and one of the findings is that it is used to detect the environment.
Although there are few actual discharge organisms, they almost all have the ability to rely on electricity to perceive the environment, including the electric gnomes. Lin has always observed them. In addition to smell, they also use electricity to detect, so the Emerald Dragon often carries them For hunting, their ability to search for prey is quite powerful.
Leviathan extended a special tentacle, the end of the tentacle can be expanded, and then the discharge organ in the tentacle began to operate, radiating energy from the end to detect the surroundings.
……no response?
After this 'electrical detection tentacle' started to work, Lin did not receive any signal at all ...
Strange, is there something wrong?I thought I could receive a lot of images like an echo.
Forget it, since this is the case, Leviathan stretches out another tentacle and sticks it on the ground. The function of this tentacle is 'subtle perception'. Even the pace of a jade can be heard. Loud like an earthquake, perceiving the activities of any creature.
Speaking of Mao Yu, Mao Yu appeared.
Before Lin put her tentacles on the ground, some small creatures ran out under the crystal tree in front of them. They were only three centimeters, and the fluff of the whole body exuded crystal-like brilliance ...
This is the legendary crystal jade!Leviathan flew over immediately, and the jadeite fans dispersed instantly and ran to the back of the tree.
Lynn found that they had bitten a hole in the tree and lived inside. They might feed on the sap. Anyway, it seems that there are more than these trees here, and other creatures appear. Not so heavy ...
The word 'strange' feels quite suitable for this situation.
Leviathan continued to advance deep into the crystalline jungle, and soon Lin saw something protruding from the ground in front.
This is where the pompon died last time. There are many sharp cone-shaped protrusions on the ground, which look like crystals of protrusions, but in fact they are a kind of trap, where dangerous creatures are hidden.
Leviathan reached out his tentacles and knocked the protrusion hard, but nothing happened around him ...
……no response?Does this thing know that Leviathan is too big to eat, so it doesn't come out?
Leviathan rolled the cone with his tentacles, and then severely broke it off, but the thing hidden in the ground still had no reaction. Leviathan swallowed this thing and decomposed it.
It seems that there is nothing special, just a piece of crystallization, and then Leviathan released some earth-burrowing worms to dig underground to search, but did not find any creature hidden in the ground, but found the pompon that was not digested at the time. small ball.
The creature seems to have gone somewhere else, maybe some adhesive structure should be attached to these small balls, or directly produce troops in it, but Lynn still wants to use Leviathan to explore here, and can also be in Draw a map on the road.
Leviathan looked at the crystalline jungle in front of him, as if he had missed his target, Susumi was unlikely to find it. The wonderful "cold" feeling still kept coming, but he didn't know where it came from. .
Maybe more troops should come to explore better, Lin also thought about it at first, but I think it will be less interesting, so I didn't do that.
'Boom!'
Suddenly, Lin heard some loud noise.
Leviathan immediately flew in the direction of the sound, and after passing through a large jungle, what appeared before Leviathan was a huge creature.
This organism is about 20 meters long. Its body is like a turtle. Its whole body is covered with crystals. There are several huge crystal cones growing on its back. Its mouth is like Deng ’s fish. Although there are no teeth in it, There is a sharp blade-like structure on the lips ...
This looks like a large turtle creature, but Lynn knows it ...
Because this kind of creature is recorded in the Emerald Dragon's studio, at the same time, Lin also discovered some things about them while observing the Emerald Dragon. Just like many intellectual creatures in this continent, they also have their own objects of worship. That's ... those huge egg stones.
They adore the egg stone and live near the egg stone, but for the Emerald Dragon, they do not think that the egg stone is formed by rock, but feel that 'it is an egg, it must have been born by some kind of creature', However, they do not imagine out of thin air like the skeleton dragon, but draw a kind of living creature and think it is the egg stone produced by that kind of creature ...
And that kind of creature is the 'crystal turtle' in front of Leviathan, which is exactly the same as the creature with the egg stone.
Although this turtle is very large, it is much smaller than the egg stone. I do n’t know why the Emerald Dragon would think that the egg stone was born. Lin thought that even the plague dragon could not produce such a large egg, if it would produce ...
This creature seems to be terrible, but it eats plants. The reason why this large turtle does not eat meat is that Lin thinks that it is difficult to catch up with its prey. At this time, it is opening its mouth and biting a crystalline tree next to it, together with leaves and crystals. The hardened branches were crushed together and swallowed in. Lin felt that the creature admired by the Emerald Dragon should have a decent name ... it was called 'Crystal Tortoise'.
Leviathan seemed to hear a special ... scream when the tortoise bite the crystalline tree.
Scream?Why is there a scream?Will the tree scream?
The tortoise swallowed again after swallowing the things in his mouth. This time Lin listened clearly. When the tortoise's jaws crushed the branch, the tree heard the sound of "ah-" ...
The sound is very small, but you can still hear clearly, you must explore clearly.
The crystal cone tortoise disagreed and continued to bite the tree, and when it saw Leviathan floating, it turned and made a strong roar, telling Leviathan not to come close.
Leviathan didn't care, and continued to approach slowly. After the tortoise found that the roaring intimidation was ineffective, it lowered its head and forelegs, aimed the Leviathan with the crystal cone on its back, and set up a defensive posture.
Lin just wanted it to pose in this way, so that she could study the tree without hindrance ...
'Boom!'
Suddenly Lin heard a loud noise, and saw the crystal cone on the back of the tortoise burst out at a very fast speed, slamming on Leviathan's head, the powerful impact force Leviathan backed a lot, on the carapace Some cracks also appeared.
Is there such a trick?The place where the crystal cone was originally growing on the tortoise's carapace now only has a hole with coking smoke, it seems to spray the crystal cone out with some pressure.
In this case, this tortoise must also join Leviathan's research project.
