4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

They call themselves 'the creatures closest to Ershi'.
They are a very old kind of mollusk creatures, if you use the classification of the Ershi people, they are regarded as members of the "cephalopod".
Compared to the cephalopods that are common on Ershi, that is, octopuses ... Lin found that they are closer to the ancient squid on the pompon.
Some of the octopuses on Ershi believe that their intelligence is very high ... they can develop into intelligent creatures.
What restricts their development is not intelligence, but lifespan, usually only a few years.
If the Ershi people can only live so short, they will develop nothing.
However, the creature that Lin encountered in the underwater cave ... it seems to belong to the octopus with a long enough life.
In short, this creature told Lin just now that their population has been living in this underwater cave.
They have a special name for themselves, but because they usually do not communicate by sound, but by ... changing colors, they usually describe their race in a mixed way of multiple colors.
If it is translated into the language of the Ershimin, it will be called the "changing chrysanthemum" first.
'Changeable octopus' itself can be completely disguised as the Ershimin, they are quite good at ... deformation and discoloration.
It's like talking to Lynn ... it pretends to be Bilu.
At the same time, it also told Lin many things.
This cave is not just what Lin sees now, it also has a very large and intricate cave system, but the point is that this is a 'nerve break point'.
That is, the nervous system of the Stellar Bus will fall off some older outer layers and small pieces during the growing process. These fallen parts will often appear in this seabed cave.
Just like those Lin had seen before.
This group of creatures have lived here for a long time, and they have also been in contact with these missing nerve parts for a long time.
It is said that in the "primitive era", the ancestors of the mutated pupa mainly collected these small nerve structures to make nests.
Nothing special happened at first, but after a long time, they suddenly began to understand the information in the ganglia.
Even a small ganglion may contain huge and complex information. Since then, the intelligence or knowledge of the mutated chrysalis has skyrocketed.
They also began to develop rapidly, forming tribes, groups, societies ... and countries.
At first they were relatively 'foolish', like many personality creatures, they were fighting each other for various things.
The biggest reason for war is usually to snatch the other party's bus ganglia.
They regard small pieces of nerve structure as a 'sacred object', and the mutated nymphs with the most ganglia are the individuals at the apex of the group.
That is ... king.
During the heyday of development, they began to try to leave the underwater cave to develop outside.
Outside ... also in the depths of the ocean.
Because it was difficult to adapt to the environment of the deep sea, they quickly canceled the idea and began to live in the cave.
But it is said that some changeable chrysalis successfully lived in the deep sea, and then went to the shallow sea ... even to the land.
However, most of the rest is still living in the cave for power.
After all, this cave system is very large, and according to its introduction, it is roughly the size of 'Antarctica'.
It may be a special area created by Ershit.
In one battle after another, the population of the changing pupa experienced extinction and rebirth, and then reincarnation reincarnation.
Until ... a certain "extinction" event, that event caused 99% of the changing pupa to die.
But they thought it was a good thing.
Because after that time, the belligerent individuals in the Change Owl population seem to have completely disappeared, and the rest are all quiet individuals, and the war between them has completely ended after that time.
The remaining changeable pupa in this group should be able to be called the 'scholar group'.
They have become a group of creatures who only like to live a quiet life, and the main activity is to study the neural structure of Ersh.
By studying these nerves, although they stay in caves, they can also know the whole world.
Even farther away, they can understand things in the void.
Especially the one that Lin now encounters ... it knows a lot.
Including Lin's things.
It told Lin that Ersh was actually watching Lin all the time, mainly through Bilu.
Veronica, who initially approached Lynn, was not entirely voluntary, although it was also largely voluntary.
But there was also a push in the "secret", that is, to let Bilu produce some emotions that wanted to contact Veronica.
Then, Bilu always stayed with Lin, and Ersh observed Lin through this.
Ersh is like the research team said, it 'surveillance' all the creatures on the body, including the Ershi people and any other creatures.
The research team believes that Ersh has no way to take care of each creature in detail, but in fact ... not exactly right.
Ersh can pay close attention to the growth of each creature, including microorganisms, but sometimes Ersh does not always stare at each creature.
It only does this when it wants to do it.
As for Billy, Ersh has been paying attention to it because it is in contact with Lynn.
Ersh observes Lynn's state through Bilo, but that's all it does, it doesn't want to do anything, at least not see related plans in these ganglia.
Until Lyn ... to this real erche.
The change chrysanthemum said that Ersh has been trying to avoid direct contact with Lin since then. It uses various methods ... but does not include the method of directly attacking Lin.
Variants believe that if Lynn goes to the depth of the ground, there is no way for Narsh to stop it, so that ... he can be reached.
The reason for the change of pupa to help Lin is that they also want to contact Ersh, this is their ... the pursuit of a lifetime, in line with their current "scholar character.
Although they have been getting all kinds of information from the small ganglion that has fallen off, they have never directly communicated with Ersh.
They are very much looking forward to communicating directly with Ershi, but they themselves have no ability to go to the exchange point.
So you have to go with Lin.
The point of communication ... that is, the location of Ersh's nerve.
It's not these shed structures, but the real whole nervous system ... The change of chrysalis indicates that it is not far from this cave.
But because of some obstacles on the way, they have never been able to pass.
Maybe Lynn could get in touch with it through these obstacles ...
