Chapter 43 The Graffiti of History
The head worm seems to have obtained a kind of thought called "inspiration". It uses small sharp stones to draw countless traces on the ground of the cave.
Lin found in her thoughts that it seemed that this was called 'painting' rather than 'scratching'.
Although the image painted is very simple, Lin can see clearly that the emotion of the head worm has become very excited now. It is constantly on the ground, on the cave wall, painting various images, including animals, some Plants, and itself, and scenes of rocks, etc.
It is incredible that it can draw all these objects with its flesh-like body.
The head worm has been painting for a long time, almost covering the entire cave floor. Lin found that for each different painting, it was drawn in a circle and framed, and one after another, it seemed to describe several consecutive pieces. Things that happened.
When the head worm finished drawing, it screamed at Lin's observation eye, and it seemed to have a new understanding now that there is no 'leader' in Lin's community, but each one can represent 'Lin'.
In fact, it noticed this phenomenon earlier. Lin's troops would not have any communication between them. At first, the head bug was just puzzled, but when it saw that Lin built Behemoth and planted a forest, it began to confirm. .
Now it will try to communicate with any of Lynn's units, not specifically the Leviathan.
At this time, the head worm was communicating with the eye tentacles in the cave, asking Lin to see the picture it drew.
The head worm rolled over to the first picture it drew, indicating Lin's viewing order with excitement, without actually referring to it. Lynn also remembered the order in which it was painted.
This painting seems really fun...
In the first image, the headworm draws its own appearance. And beside it, there are many arthropods that Lin has never seen before. Those arthropods are divided into two sections and have six limbs. They stand upright with four limbs, and the front two limbs are raised on in front of him, and bladed.
These arthropods have surrounded the head worm. What does this mean? Is it their leader? Is this its clan?
Then, the head worm rolled over to the second picture, where there were scenes of arthropods fighting, seemingly hunting, and cutting some small plants, which stacked food in front of a large creature with a huge belly. And the head worm drew a lot of small circles behind it, and these small circles cracked, and the worms drilled out of them.
what is that? egg?
I see,
Lin suddenly understood that just like the head worm is responsible for being the 'brain' in the group, this huge belly creature is responsible for production.
how they evolved. It is indeed very similar to a single cell. The evolution of cells is like this. Slowly, they begin to divide labor and cooperate. Some species are responsible for some events. They eventually combine into rich multicellular organisms through continuous evolution.
Organisms that have evolved to become multicellular have a number of abilities that single-celled organisms do not possess. Get rid of the shackles that only single cells have, however. What if multicellular organisms evolved along this route? Will they divide and cooperate, and will they be combined like a single cell in the end? So what creatures will they become when combined? This is really unimaginable...
However, in any case, this is a quite powerful evolutionary route, just like the head worm, it does not need to grow a lot of muscles and organs to deal with various situations like ordinary creatures, because there are other similar evolutionary muscles and strengths Hunt for food and do various things for it, so it can think full-time, so it has evolved a huge head and is much smarter than ordinary creatures.
Then it can share its wisdom with those of its less intelligent kin. This 'division of labor' creature is much stronger than ordinary solitary or gregarious creatures. They are not only male and female, but also more detailed and complex. Classification, the single-celled organisms seem to understand this at the beginning, so they can stand out from the single cells.
However, Lin still doesn't understand what kind of creature it is. It has long understood that it is very different from the creatures it usually sees. Why?
I don't know how long it will take for this question to be explained...
Lin's current evolution method is also different from ordinary creatures. It is mainly based on combining stronger objects. Most of the creatures that Lin has seen are basically for the purpose of reproduction.
The head worm then rolled onto the third painting. This painting is also a battle scene, but this time it is not hunting, but a war. The head worm draws the nest where its colony is located, which seems to be a rock. It looks like a cave, and in the cave, there are fighting arthropods everywhere.
The colony of head worms is on the defensive side, while the attacking ones are the creatures that Lin has been familiar with recently... the Aztec worms.
Could it be that they once had a war? So the brainworm understands the Aztecs?
The head worm rolled onto the fourth picture. According to the picture, almost all the Aztec worms were killed and were running away, and some of the head worm race also died, but they won.
In the fifth picture, the head worm this time drew the backs of the Aztec escapees. The huge sand dunes and the ball in the air indicated that they fled into the desert.
So that's why the Aztecs lived in the desert? But where do the headworm colonies live? Possibly inside the Twisted Jungle.
In the sixth picture, the head worm has drawn a huge crack, which directly divides the picture into two sections. The head worm itself fell into the center of the crack.
What does it mean? The ground cracked? Destroyed the colony of brainworms? And then the head worm fell into the crack itself?
In the seventh picture, the head worm drew itself in a jungle environment, and in front of it, a huge lizard appeared, and there were many small bugs on the lizard.
That's the Chibcha bug...
In the eighth picture, the head worm draws the crystal worm's nest of the Qibucha worm, which is located in the crystal disc in the center of the worm's nest.
In the ninth picture, it was the appearance of Lin's troops.
It turns out that so many fun things have happened to the head bug?
And in the tenth picture, which is also the last one, the head worm has drawn a huge thing. This thing is like a giant pillar covering the whole painting. It is impossible to tell what it is from the outside. The head worm is here. There are also many creatures drawn on the giant pillar, and at the top, a large number of leaf-like structures are drawn.
Could this be... a plant? (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (m) to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
