Chapter 64 The Long Winter
When the shell protecting the observer was dissolved, Lin finally saw the former cell again.
From Lin's current view, it is indeed very different from ordinary cells. There is a small crystal on the surface of the body. When the observer is immersed in water, Lin can slowly feel the vision from it. ...
still alive.
The observer's life state returned to normal in an instant, and Lin could feel it. There was no pain in the whole body, it was just a lack of nutrients.
It seems that the observer is in a state of complete cessation of life activity, which was not expected to last that long.
Lin's former sleeping state will still have a slow consumption, but the observer's state does not seem to be the same. It should have entered a state called 'like death'.
This ability might be able to be used at some point in the future, but Lin still doesn't quite know how it got into this state.
The cells of the aircraft carrier are all dead, none of them are alive, but they have not been eroded in any way. They seem to maintain a state called 'mummy', which is really strange.
The smashers walked back to the airborne compartment. Although the airborne compartment was said to be used for airborne, it could also be used for liftoff. After the smashers walked in, the airborne compartment was closed, and at the top, there was a small The small sac swelled up, and the sac became larger and larger until it exceeded the size of the airborne capsule. The floating gas in the bag made the airborne capsule slowly rise.
These sacs will continue to inflate to speed up the lift-off until approaching Behemoth. A hole is opened under the pouch, and the gas inside is quickly ejected. Before the gas leaks, Behemoth will recover them.
Well, go back.
Although Lin still wants to investigate the Eastern Continent, it is still difficult to say whether there are any creatures in the Eastern Continent. The remaining nutrients of Bechymos can still go back. Now that the aircraft carrier and the observer have been found, I have also seen this. A sea area, so Lin decisively chose to return.
Behemoth turned around. After Lin looked at the desert-covered continent again, she began to speed up and fly back.
On the way back, Lin once again saw the seabed that rushed out of the sea, and the helmeted fish that were struggling to live on it.
Although the disaster has destroyed almost everything, there are still survivors living here, if only they can survive to the ocean to recover.
Lin won't set up an observation base here or anything,
If you feel it will come back later. A mood called 'surprise' would be even bigger.
However, do not know when the ocean will recover? Under what conditions will the toxins in the sea disappear?
Lin doesn't even know how they appeared, so I don't know how long it will take, but I'll check back often in the future.
………………
after that. Behemoth returned to the North Continent and placed the observer in the base.
Now, although the observer is useless, Lin will also keep it, and maybe one day she will encounter a crystal similar to its 'vision crystal'.
The crystals that Lin has encountered now have no ability to 'sight'. It just absorbs light.
Lin continued her usual life, but Lin didn't know how long these cold days would last.
There seems to be one word to describe this chilly time: 'winter'.
This season is quite boring. There is no biological activity, no heat, the sky is always gray, the sun is rarely visible, and the snow and ice cover is getting thicker by the day, and it feels like a permanent disaster.
Now, winter has lasted for more than 90 days and nights. Not only has it not dissipated, but a sudden blizzard has swept the Twisted Forest and even the entire North Continent.
The North Continent now felt as if it was covered with snow. In the sky above the desert, the endless blizzard kept roaring, and the white sandstorm continued to hit the glittering woodland, which made Lin's snow sweeping more and more difficult.
And the cold wind affected not only the periphery of the Twisted Forest. Under the sharp drop in temperature, Lin had found that many creatures were frozen to death in their nests, and they didn't even have time to eat the stored food.
The foot of the original mountain was filled with warm spring water, which attracted quite a few creatures, mostly salamanders and a green cockroach about half a meter in length. They did not seem to have the habit of sleeping, but under the attack of the blizzard, Most of the hot springs were buried by ice and snow, and many creatures were frozen to death here. The rest gathered under the largest hot springs closest to the foot of the mountain. In order to compete for the hot springs, they started a war.
Here, Lin saw some interesting moves from them. Usually salamanders and cockroaches will attack each other, and if they have the chance, they will kill each other. The two are of the same size, but the cockroaches are stronger, but the salamanders are poisonous, so to speak. The strength is also similar. They often use the sleeping sawfly in the center of the hot spring as the dividing line, each occupying half of the hot spring, and whoever dares to cross will besiege whoever, but when the wind and snow hits, they will seem to forget that the other party is the enemy. , crowded into a block to keep warm, and will work together to shovel snow to avoid snow burying the hot springs.
This phenomenon is really fun, but under the attack of the blizzard, even if they give up the fight, they will suffer heavy casualties. Lin has to stop the experiment completely for this reason. There are not too many creatures here to do experiments.
The blizzard hit most of the jungle, and even buried several rocky mountains of the head bug into snow mountains, and the canopy of the home tree was also submerged by the wind and snow, accumulating thick white snow.
Even the mountaintop lake, which was not affected before, began to freeze, and the creatures in it slowly entered a state of deep sleep.
This bad influence continues, the cold winter has not stopped, and the creatures are dying in the long cold.
Now, it has lasted 180 days and nights.
The Twisted Jungle is already white, and Lin put away the green blanket umbrellas. Even if there are crystals, it is difficult for them to absorb any nutrients, because the light source in the daytime is very dark, so they can't emit any light in the night, instead There are many green carpet balls floating above the clouds. Now Lin completely relies on them for nutrients. It is a little troublesome to use these floating green carpet balls, because they have to fly back and forth to retrieve nutrients, and they are easily blown by the wind. walk and so on.
But this jungle has been unable to obtain any nutrients, and the wind and snow buried everything.
The last few hot springs at the foot of the mountain have disappeared. The creatures in those hot springs either escaped into the ground or died, but the sawfly still sleeps in the place where the hot springs were originally. , Lin will find that the cells in their bodies still maintain a certain vitality.
After Behemoth came back, he lay in a deep sleep on the snow field that had turned into a desert. Lin felt that it might be useful to activate it. If the cold continued, Lin might start a new plan.
It is to create a huge environment in the sky.
The winter lasted for 220 days and nights. Although there were no storms, the snow continued to fall...
Although he didn't know where it got so much snow, Lin didn't want to wait any longer. Lin asked Bechymos to inflate, released a large number of troops to sweep away the snow covering his body, and then floated into the air and flew above the clouds.
At the same time, in the base of the Twisted Jungle, Lin began to manufacture a large number of powerful bombs "Art Creator". These bombs were carried high into the sky by a buoyant sphere, floated into the clouds, and then...
'boom'!
The strong roar blasted a gap directly above the glittering forest, and the warm sunlight shone through it. At this time, Lin's base released a large number of green carpet balls. The green carpet balls are usually about one meter in diameter, but this time Lin made With a diameter of more than three meters, this larger green carpet ball quickly rose into the air and eventually rose to where Behemoth was.
Behemoth unleashes a type of unit called the 'Sticker', a bee-type unit that flies and secretes gelatinous mucus, which is responsible for holding all the green carpet balls together.
In this way, after the completion, Lin has obtained a huge floating green blanket. They are very light in weight, but because the large pieces are connected together, Lin forms a jet structure at the edge, which keeps them in a certain position and does not Will be blown too far by the wind.
When all the green carpet balls are connected together, their diameter is about 100 meters. Lin can make bigger ones, but this time it is just an experiment. Behemoth is docked next to this huge floating green carpet and is responsible for Manage various situations here.
This green blanket can also adjust the air here, so that the snow clouds can't gather here, so that Lin doesn't need to be so troublesome to sweep snow in the glittering woodland all the time. Although there is still snow drifting over, the workload is much less.
In the next few days and nights, Lin found that the idea of floating green carpet was really good, so Lin asked the base to continue to make many green carpet balls to increase the area of the floating green carpet.
Later, Lin released some spheres without green blankets, these spheres were connected at the edge of the floating green blanket, and then Lin got moss to plant on it, and also dug up some sleeping small arthropods, look at them Can you live in the air.
Although the sky is cold, it is warmer than the ground because of the sunlight, but it is much colder than the ground at night, and these creatures seem to be unable to adapt and die.
It seemed that Lin had to create a warm environment.
But that may be more difficult, let's do it now, the winter should end sooner or later.
Is it over...?
When the winter lasted for 300 days and nights, Lin began to doubt her previous thoughts. The floating green blanket was getting bigger and bigger, but once a part of it was lost due to a sudden thundercloud, there was quite a lot of danger in the air, and sometimes Another strong storm will hit.
Getting nutrients is not so easy...
Now, three hundred and sixty days and nights. (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. Mobile users, please go to m to read.)
