4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
1839 Insect in the Dark
This is a world without light. In a completely dark environment, there is only a storm of sand and stone chips. It is accompanied by extreme cold and reverberates on the earth.
"Tap ..."
In this environment, there is a group of creatures moving on the barren rocky ground, they are constantly leaving the sound of footsteps, almost without fear of the harsh surroundings.
They are three meters long and flat. This is a group of creatures called ... Void Cockroach, which is part of the Inca swarm.
This name means that they adapt to the void environment, regardless of the surrounding pressure and gravity, and how low the temperature is, they can adapt well. Although this dark world is not a void, it is also very close.
Under this extreme environment, ten void cockroaches are rapidly moving forward, waving their tentacles to detect the surrounding environment.
Suddenly, they stopped and they detected ... something appeared nearby.
Although everything is covered by pure darkness, the Void Cockroach can clearly feel that there is something slowly approaching ten meters in front of them.
This thing is like a large, thin object. It has a length and width of more than ten meters when it is unfolded, but its thickness is estimated to be only a few centimeters.
Its body fluttered with the wind, like a piece of skin.
However, Void Cockroach believes that it is certainly not ordinary skin that can wander in this dark world. Its purpose is not yet known, but this piece of skin has been ... staring at them.
"Huh ..." The whirlwind containing sand and dust continued, and this piece of skin floating in the air floated in front of the void cockroach with the wind.
It feels like 'pi' is just fluttering with the wind, but Void Cockroach has noticed that Pi will constantly change his posture and use wind to change the speed and direction of movement.
It ... is flying around the void of the Void Cockroach, circling around incessantly, as if it will pounce at any time.
The Void Cockroaches have remained immobile, and the skin is still flying around. It has not attacked, but it has not left.
'despair.'A void cockroach took a step forward.
'call!Suddenly, a gust of wind blew violently, and the skin floating in the wind flew down with it, instantly covering the void cockroach that left the group completely.
The covered Void Cockroach felt pain, a pain that was pierced all over the body. When it felt this pain, it immediately sent instructions to its surrounding companions.
It's like a cell being eaten, notifying the surrounding cells of that feeling.
All the void cockroaches rushed up at this moment, and they rushed directly to the piece of skin, using the blade-like mouth to bite the skin ... the skin.
This skin is like real skin, no matter the taste or softness of the bite, it is not very hard, although it is said that the void cockroach has been eaten and it is not composed of cells.
But its softness made it unable to defend against the attack of the Void Cockroach, so the skin struggled.
It kept flapping and shaking its body, trying to fly on the ground and continue to fly away from the wind, but the Void Cockroach realized the idea of the skin, they quickly flew away, and several Void Cockroaches climbed to the edge of the skin, using their own 'S legs gripped the ground tightly, while biting the skin hard to prevent it from flying away, while the remaining void cockroaches were attacking everywhere on the skin.
They are looking for the key to the skin, so they tried every part to try to kill the skin.
Unexpectedly, they really succeeded.
There was a void cockroach who didn't know where he was biting, and this skin suddenly lay on the ground and no longer struggled.
Therefore, the Void Cockroaches carried this piece of skin and the body of the companion who was initially killed in one direction.
………………
Here, it is still the world, still cold, and the wind can still be heard.
But it is no longer dark, because this is a cave in the ground, and a glowworm more than five meters long is lying on the top of the cave, and its glowing abdomen illuminates the entire cave environment.
In the center of the cave, there is a silver, huge creature, the ground-splitter.
It shattered the ground and found the cave. Because the outside environment was too dangerous, they decided to build a temporary base here to allow the swarm troops to rest here.
There are other worm swarms here, all of them are various, and they are all looking at one place.
At the entrance of the cave, the empty cockroaches to explore are back. They are dragging a big thing, which looks like the skin of a large creature, and it is covered with many fine hairs.
Although this skin has no cellular structure, it attacks them, which makes the Inca swarm a little puzzled.
There are not many troops here, and its intelligence is also limited. Therefore, without thinking too much, it decided to shut down this piece of leather first, and then continue to watch the reaction of the leather.
But where should it be locked?
"Got you."
While the Inca swarm was hesitating, it suddenly received a signal from the entrance of the cave, and saw an aircraft made entirely of metal parts and three pompoms flying in from there.
"What are you doing here?"
After finally finding the Inca swarm, Lin questioned them, although the results were basically guessed.
The Inca Swarm expressed some surprise at this, so it replied to Lin's query, saying that they mainly wanted to build a new base here.
Although there is nothing in this cave, the Inca Swarm believes that a lot of things can be added, so that it has a base that can dispatch troops to explore and come back for treatment and rest at any time.
Lin looked at the ground and saw the creature like a skin.
This creature is the first creature that Lin encountered here. They fly with the wind. Although they are non-cellular, they seem to be very hostile to any kind of creatures. They will find opportunities to attack them.
Lin and the Tibetan memory had been attacked by them before. During the attack, Lin also learned some of Pi's habits.
They have a very close relationship with their companions. Lin can know the location of other skins through a piece of skin, and can also know what the status is, and even know whether there is death.
Lin thought that the Inca swarm had also been attacked by the skin, so she found it, and the location shown by these skins was not only here.
Lin can also find other places through it. In some places, Lin feels suspicious. There may be more creatures there. There should be more creatures in this dark world.
'Gada'.
When Lin thought so, she suddenly heard some voices.
The skin on the ground bitten by the void of the Inca swarm suddenly ... disappeared.
