4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
1958 Arrival
'boom--'
In the void, there was a roar that only Lin could hear.
The predator ’s battleship finally came close to the place called the ruins, and its huge body collided with the wreckage at the edge of the ruins,
The collision caused the warship to tremble, but it was safe, because the speed of the warship was very slow, and these wreckages were all rammed into the surroundings, while the warship itself was not injured.
"Finally ... going back."
Atlan, named Rosali, was still standing on the back of the battleship. Although it was dangerous to enter the ruins, the battleship did not care.
It is now staring closely at the void city that is slowly flying among the ruins, and it is now full of the desire to return there.
But Lin didn't care whether it was thirsty or not, now Lin is communicating with a creature, this creature is ... meat ball.
"We, will return to that place, back to the distant hometown ..."
It's actually not a pompon, but a group of meat balls, they appeared here not long ago, and they also carry something called a 'player'.
The sound released by this thing can be received through the communicator, and the meat ball is now playing a song with this ...
The content of this song is mainly to express the emotion of nostalgia for my hometown. Meatball took this thing and played it continuously.
They seem to want to express their feelings of return, so Lin is here to try to communicate with them, but it seems more difficult to communicate with them.
Because they do not respond to Lin ’s information, Lin understands their brain structure, so they can send them information they can understand.
But even after sending an understandable message, they still did not respond, so Lin thought ...
'Bang--'
Suddenly, Lin felt a violent shaking. Looking at the source of the shaking, Lin found that a large object hit the battleship. The object was hundreds of meters in size and looked like a stone. At this moment, The meat balls that Lin was communicating with immediately flew over there.
"We've seen our hometown! We're going back there!" And while flying, there are also ... cooperating songs.
Lin immediately chased after seeing this, but these meat balls seemed to be much faster than usual. They flew out of the edge of the battleship and flew over the huge stone.
Lin's mechanical octopus flew up quickly, and grabbed the slowest meat ball, but the other meat balls were all scattered and flew to the surrounding void.
Lin didn't chase them, because Lin felt ... this one is enough, because this meat ball has a complete memory, and unlike the previous ones, it needs to gather more to get more memory.
And in this memory ... some ideas of meatballs are described.
Their mission, as Lin knew, was to move the battleship here and make the battleship a part of the ruins.
Now that their mission is complete, they intend to leave.
Lin also found that in her memory it was mentioned that this group of creatures have been doing similar operations for a long time, that is, the operation of collecting debris and collecting the debris made by water balls.
Then brought the various debris to this place, for this reason, they have been using various ways to approach the water polo.
These things include biological groups, various civilizations and so on, as long as they are likely to be destroyed by water balls, then this group of gel-like creatures will try to approach them.
Before they are destroyed, they will mix into them, and then wait for the entire force to be destroyed by water polo, and then bring these wreckage back.
This is something that quasi-gel bios have always done ... but this is not what they like to do, this is just a task that has been 'set'.
However, the creature that set the task for the gel-like ... is dead.
Lin discovered this memory here, and the gel-like creatures knew that their task-giver died long ago, but they still performed these tasks.
Although there is no reason, Lin feels that these tasks have been carved into their "information sources", so they will continue to perform this task.
The gel-like creatures seem to be dissatisfied with this phenomenon. Lin found a lot of similar emotions in her memory. They do n’t want to continue to do these tasks, but they have no way to disobey. They must continue to do so.
Therefore, after completing the task and being able to return, they will feel very happy, just like ... now.
While Lin was watching these memories, countless ... meat balls appeared around him.
This group of meatballs flew out from the back of the battleship in groups. They were originally inside the battleship, but now because of the end of the mission, they all flew out of the battleship.
The number of them may be tens of thousands. Lin watched them fly over the back of the battleship, and then spread out into the surrounding ruins. Some meat balls were still shaking or turning in circles while flying. This is because Express how happy they are.
As these meatballs flew out, Lin also felt that the battleship was trembling slightly, it hit more things, at the same time, the speed of the battleship became slower and slower, and finally ... stopped completely Down.
It seems that the battleship is indeed no longer moving. Lynn thinks that if there is no accident, it may have been here, just like other wreckage here.
The gravity here works in a wonderful way, maintaining the balance of all objects, so that they rarely collide with each other, nor will they fall to the gravity ball around them. This situation is very similar to the floating rocky ground.
The rocks there have also maintained a state of drifting. Lin thinks that there is something that should be related to the bus-like creatures.
"What the hell are these ..." Rosally watched the huge flew of meatballs fly by, and said with some surprise: "How come they all flew out?"
"Ignore them first." Lin's mechanical octopus flew off the stone and came to Rosari's side: "Now we can go to see you."
"... Yes! Now that it has stopped, let's go!"
Rosalie was excited when she heard this, and then, immediately ... it flew back into the warship's room.
Because it is still far away from the place called Void City, it thinks that it should be prepared, so it went back to prepare some weapons, strengthened the armor, and carried a lot of "necessary supplies" on its back. Only then did he return to the back of the battleship.
"Are you prepared for nothing?" Rosally asked strangely, looking at the mechanical octopus.
"That's enough." The mechanical octopus said.
"Really? But this place is dangerous ... But forget it, it's not quite far anyway."
Now it is almost a thousand kilometers from the Void City. It is indeed very close. Lynn and Luo Shali began their journey here.
When the journey of the mechanical octopus began, Lin's mechanical spider continued its previous actions within the battleship.
They have to dig to the point of concentration of this warship to see, and they are also creating more troops, and after the number is enough, they can dispatch them to explore the surrounding ruins.
At the same time, Lin is ... 'collecting' those mutated residents.
The mutant residents changed again after the meatballs flew away. They used to chase the meatballs frantically, but now they have become lack of interest.
Although there are still gel-like creatures here, such as those bright red seedlings that grow in the pool, and there are many places that grow like pieces of meat, but the mutated residents no longer have too much of them Interested.
It's not that I'm not interested at all, but I don't like eating as much as before, and Lin also found that they started to prey on each other.
In the past, the mutant residents did not attack each other except for the swollen monster, but the phenomenon of their fighting now often occurs.
Lin thought they were fun, as if there were different personality changes in various situations, so Lin decided to grab them and study them carefully.
At the same time, Lin also needs to know how they mutated.
The reason why they mutated ... Lin now understands some things, which can be called 'temporary signal' for the time being.
The mutated residents are all multi-cellular personalities, and their growth and development are mainly controlled by the data recorded in the nucleus.
The internal structure of the cell will first read the data in the nucleus and then construct it, which is usually the case.
The water polo used a method to allow the cell's constructor to receive other data, which caused new changes in the residents' cells.
Lin based on the detection of these mutant residents, Lin guessed that this should be the case.
It's similar to the virus, but the problem is that the water polo did not inject these residents with viruses or something, but used some kind of ... special method to make the constructors in their cells receive other messages, forcing their bodies to change. .
This is much more efficient than viruses, and these creatures can be operated relatively perfectly, so this environment is created here.
First use the swollen monster to provide nutrients, and then create a large number of mutant residents, and let them do different things at different times.
Although it was unsuccessful, this series of plans one by one is perfect ... This method allows their cells to change regularly, and the virus has too many uncertain factors, it is not easy to achieve this effect.
Now at the final stage, Lin believes that they will be transformed into a special 'ecosystem'. The weaker mutant residents will continue to feed on the corpses and swollen monsters and the remaining gel-like creatures. Controlling this place, they will use the entire battleship as a living area until the basic nutrients are consumed.
All of this is that the water polo uses some way to give these creatures extra 'evolutionary instructions'.
How do they do it?
