4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

They are back.

In other words, they never left.

The creatures called limb-keepers are gathering in the passage of the cave they drilled.

They seem to want to fight back against the ground mirror again, but when will they fight back?

For the time being, Lin did not care about these things, because Lin is now concerned about stellar buses and molluscs.

Lin's interest in the way of life of molluscs and their relationship with Stellar Bus.

Therefore, Lin has to study them a little ... but they are very reluctant to cooperate and not willing to communicate, so they need to use some ... a more direct way.

Previously, Lin was watching the situation in the cave, where the mollusk slowly decomposed the hardened crystals on the ground, and Lin's pseudolith was watching it at the entrance of the cave.

However, this behavior did not last long, and it soon noticed Lin's pseudo stone. After all, it was too close and it was not easy to hide.

Then, it decided to launch an attack, but it had no special attack ability, so it was quickly caught by Lin's pseudo stone.

And just as Lin grabbed it, Lin found something outside.

The molluscs that gathered outside this columnar organ suddenly all started to move here. It seems that after Lin attacked the molluscs here, they immediately noticed.

So Lin decided to finish the research before they came in.

Now in the cave inside the pillar, Lin's pseudo-stone is transforming into the shape of a ball, and the inside of the ball is hollow, and it is trapped by the mollusk that was caught before.

This mollusk is a few centimeters in size. Although its shape is not fixed, it cannot rise to a large size, and Lin ’s pseudo stone is more than twice as large, so it can not only trap it, but also divide a part to block the hole. live.

The fastest group creatures outside have approached here through the cave's passage, and blocking the hole should be able to fight for some time.

Thinking, Lynn began to detect this mollusk creature trapped in the ball ...

Fortunately, these creatures don't explode or dissolve anything. Although it is constantly struggling to drill out, it is still easy to study it.

The body structure of this mollusk is different from those seen above, but the overall feeling is still like a 'simplified version' of the stellar bus organ ...

The composition of the organs in the Stellar bus is very complicated. Generally speaking, some of them are cells, and there are a lot of mixed structures that work together to form.

The molluscs have simplified these structures a lot, leaving only the basic part ... The mollusc organism's internal structure can make it deform quickly, but it cannot be hardened or long-winged like the one Lin saw last time.

But this is closer to the organ of the Stellar bus.

Lin cares about the part of her thoughts, it should also have a brain-like part, but Lin only found a small 'nervous system'.

This nervous system is made up of cells, but only ten cells.

Such a small nervous system connects and controls the soft structure of the whole body. Lin feels that such a small nerve cannot allow this soft creature to control its body.

So obviously, this mollusc is not a single organism ... they are similar to divisional species.

And this tiny nerve is connected to other soft creatures, or it is receiving signals from where it is. It is not yet clear where that is.

Lin could feel vaguely ... This tiny nerve is connected to a very far place, this connection seems to be broken from time to time, very unclear.

However, Lin also has another clear feeling that it is connected to other soft creatures.

Including those molluscs that are currently in the cave passage, they have now come to the entrance of this place, because the entrance is blocked by Lin with a part of the pseudo stone, they ca n’t get in yet ... but they have started attacking Lin To block the road.

These molluscs hardened part of their bodies into sharp claw shapes, constantly trying to dig up blocked pseudo-stones.

Although the pseudolith is also hardened, the molluscs have dug a lot of cracks on it, which obviously cannot be supported for a long time, and the structure of the pseudolith prevents it from continuing to become harder.

But Lin feels very wonderful ... It seems that the attacking ways and life styles of molluscs are simple, they are not even as complicated as those outside.

Thinking, Lin made the pseudo-blocking stone send a communication signal to the attacking mollusk.

Although Lin had tried communication a few times before and failed, but this time it was a signal sent only by fully understanding their nerves, which should give them a ... like feeling.

"You guys, stop attacking."

When Lin sent this message, the mollusk that was constantly attacking suddenly froze for a while and stopped the attack.

"what are you?"

The attacking soft creature sent a questioning signal, which seemed to be a good start, meaning it wanted to communicate with Lynn.

So, Lin and it explained some situations, said that they came from outside, harmless to them, just want to understand the situation here.

"You have to leave here." The soft creature sent a message to Lin: "Can't continue here, leave here."

"Don't you care about the war above?" Lin said, "There is a creature that wants to invade you."

"Hurry up here." And it repeats the previous message: "If you don't leave, attack."

It seems that they still don't want to communicate, since so ...

'Boom!'

A tentacle suddenly stretched out among the pseudo-stones, which instantly pierced the mollusk that was about to attack.

Then in the tentacle, Lynn opened a lot of openings and began to suck the soft creature, just like a straw, the soft creature was sucked half of the body in an instant.

There is still a part left. It reacts to quickly harden the structure inside, so as not to be sucked into the pseudo stone. While absorbing this mollusk, Lin is also examining its structure.

Its structure is very similar to those of molluscs on the ground, and the body has the ability to quickly transform and can harden a part of the body at will.

And it has multiple neural structures in its body, which is different from the one Lin had trapped before, it seems that they are two arms.

This hardenable species is responsible for things like fighting, while another non-hardenable species is responsible for transforming the organ of the Stellar bus.

The hardened species also seem to eat organs, but I have never seen them have the ability to transform directly. More importantly, Lin learned through the neural structure in this hardened species that it is connected to all the surrounding molluscs, and these surrounding molluscs, Are connected to something in the distance.

Lin thinks this is the key to the location of the connection, but to get accurate information, Lin thinks that more should be obtained ... neural structure.

If you only feel through a small amount of nerve structure, it will only feel very vague, but there are a lot of nerve structures of soft organisms ... you can feel it clearly.

Simply put, Lynn has to catch all the mollusks here.

It is not possible to do it by simulating stones alone.

Although it has already captured two molluscs, there are now more molluscs coming here, and soon the pseudolith will be solved.

However, Lin has left many miniature arms in the mud on the outside wall.

These miniature arms were originally used for observation, but now Lin intends to use them to create an army.

Enough troops are needed to capture all the mollusks here.

In fact, compared to direct capture, Lynn still thinks it is better to communicate with them, but since they are not willing to communicate, then do so.

Thinking about it, Lynn let the miniature arms start to act. They began to attack various microorganisms in the surrounding soil and devoured them as nutrients.

When Lin did this, more molluscs had reached the position of pseudo stone, Lin did not let the pseudo stone fight back, so they quickly gave the pseudo stone to ... solve it.

The way they solve the pseudo stone is to cut the pseudo stone with a bladed body part, and then use some dissolving liquid to completely dissolve the pseudo stone.

Of course, it was just that they thought it was more thorough. Lin let the pseudo stone release a lot of miniature arms before being dissolved, and continued to observe the situation in the columnar organ.

After the pseudolith was resolved, the column returned to its usual condition, the mollusk continued to dissolve the crystals inside, and the hardenable species left and crawled outside.

Through the research just now, Lin has basically understood how it dissolves. The molluscs give some information similar to nuclear information recorded in the body to the organ of the Stellar Bus, and then the organ of the Stellar Bus will self-dissolve. Reaction.

Lin felt that it was as if the Stellar Bus and the molluscs had reached some kind of 'agreement'. As long as the molluscs showed the agreement to the organ, the organ would react.

It may also be that the molluscs have stolen nuclear information in some way, and then modified the contents of it, and then let the organs react in this way, but this is unlikely because it is really difficult.

The nuclear information of the Stellar Bus is very different from the usual cell nucleus. Lin feels that at present, any organism that Lin encounters does not have this technology or ability.

Except for the Stellar Bus itself ...

Therefore, Lin has the idea that mollusk creatures may do these tasks by stellar buses, and let them help dissolve and transform all the organs.

This behavior obviously has an impact on the collapse, so micromachines have to attack them.

When thinking about these things, Lin's miniature arms in the mud have grown a lot through continuous eating, and they can almost be used to attack soft creatures.

After capturing them and knowing where their chief commander is, Lin should be able to figure out the overall situation.

On the other side, Lynn's spies at the endoscope and limb raiser also found out some conditions.

That is ... micromachines appeared.
