Chapter 66 The Jungle in the Desert
() 'Boom...'
In the ground, there was a low vibration sound. It seemed that Lin had heard this sound somewhere. Lin planned to ignore it for now, because Lin was more interested in this vine fern jungle.
The smashers moved slowly through the fast-paced woodland as they tapped away the vines.
The forest is full of wet breath and the chirping of small creatures. The arabesque fern is more than thirty centimeters thick, and the whole is very long. Dense, Lincai used the crushers to study, they rely on the cone angle that can be ejected while breaking these dense ferns while advancing.
The flyer flew over the vine fern jungle, leading the way for the smashers. The place where Lin was going was in the deeper part of the desert, where almost all the tallest vine ferns were about fifteen meters away, and it was closer to the twisted jungle. The place where the arabesque fern is only about ten meters away.
Lin speculates that what is hidden in the desert, plus a lot of water, makes these vine ferns grow explosively, and their seeds may have been hidden here a long time ago.
Speaking of which, seeds are also quite a powerful evolution. Plants have specially evolved to protect their young. The outer shell is usually quite hard, and the cells inside can also be stored for a long time, which can usually be calculated in hundreds of years.
Originally, Lin thought that only twisted trees could have such high-hardness and long-lived seeds, but ferns might also have them.
Although the vine ferns are fragile and fragile, they have a powerful characteristic. They will stretch out their appendages to wrap up the broken parts, and then slowly decompose and absorb them, without wasting a bit.
Compared with animal cells, plants are simpler and have fewer types. But they are pretty good at surviving and competing. This makes Lin feel as if the more complicated it is, the stronger it is. Even simple, it can easily compete with complexity.
The lead smashers walked for a while, and Lin reached the deeper part of the vine fern, which was full of large vine ferns, and now the smashers began to dig down at the roots of some of the largest vine ferns.
The roots of the arabesque seemed to be buried quite deep, and the Crusher dug quickly, but it wasn't until Lin let them dig more than five meters deep. It was still impossible to tell how deep the arabesque ferns were, their roots were deeply embedded in the sand, and they were still intertwined.
Lynn used a new method, in which the fliers injected tiny explorers into the fern's skin to observe the cellular activity in the fern's body.
The explorer swims in the vine fern and observes the cells inside. When it enters, it is attacked by a large number of immune responses.
Some cells produce large amounts of toxins, but none of this is of much use to explorers. Lynn can slowly study the cells inside.
...seems to be quite peculiar.
Lin found that the cells of the vine fern are very strange, and the cells of ordinary animals and plants are very different. But the arabesque is not like a plant, and a part very much like an animal.
It transmits nutrients very fast, and the speed of division is also very fast, which is one of the reasons for the rapid growth.
However, although the cells of the vine fern are weird, the types of cells are still as few as those of plants. It feels like the vine fern seems to be a very special creature.
Maybe further research is needed to see their growth state. They can explode so much in a short period of time. There must be some special method. Lin also wants to master this method, which will definitely help in the future.
In this case, the seeds of the vine fern must be obtained in order to see its growth process.
It looks like we need to keep digging.
However, just when Lin was about to continue, she suddenly felt the vibration of the ground again...
This feeling... is indeed very familiar.
Lin was about to listen carefully, but her hearing was quickly replaced by another sound.
It was a loud roar, which seemed to be the sound of some kind of vocal sac-developed creature.
These fast-growing vine ferns have attracted many creatures, but most of them are small creatures less than half a meter, and this sound seems to represent a huge creature, and it is... approaching!
From the field of vision of a crusher who was digging at the edge of the group, Lin saw that the vine fern in front of her suddenly trembled, and a pair of one meter long, serrated jaws rushed out of it, instantly pinching the crusher. 's head.
Following this, the pair of jaws pulled the crusher back, but at this time the crusher's cone angle had popped out and hit the serrations on the inside of the jaws hard.
'click'
Cracks appeared on the slammed sawtooth, and the pair of jaws suddenly loosened and retracted into the vines.
The smashers chased after the victory, and Lin let them smash through the ferns in front of them quickly, rushing towards the place where the jaws had retracted just now.
After running about ten meters, Lin found that she had reached a relatively open area, where the vines and ferns had been cut flat, and in the center of the open area was the creature that attacked just now.
The creature 'Scythe beetle' is quite familiar. It has been seen many times in the Twisted Jungle. It is a large beetle with a pair of long jaws on its head. It is about three meters in size. It seems to have dug a space for itself here. , maybe to occupy territory or something.
Facing so many smashers, Scythe Armor looked a little frightened. As it retreated, it opened the hard shell behind it, revealing the four wings below, and then began to fly high into the sky.
Forget it, forget about it.
Lin was just about to make the crushers turn around and leave, when there was another 'Boom' from the ground! The voice, and this time the voice is quite close!
Right, this is...
I saw the ground in the open space cracked open instantly, and a huge creature rushed out of the ground with countless dust and broken vine ferns. It bit the saw sickle in the air and dragged it back to the ground. superior.
This vibrating sound was indeed... a deep sand bus!
After Lin had passed the winter for a while, the fliers who were observing the Aztec worms were frozen to death, and so were the ones in the deep sand bus, so Lin had not paid attention to the Aztecs for a long time. The movement of the insect.
This deep sand bus only had half of its body above the ground, and it was about seventeen meters long. The width of the scorpion-shaped body was seven meters. Lin speculated that its overall length might exceed twenty-six meters.
Probably not the one who attacked Behemoth before...
The deep sand bus chewed the saw sickle in its mouth, swallowed it after a crisp cracking sound, and then looked at the crushers.
It feels a bit difficult to handle. The Shensha Bus is a very troublesome creature. It is huge, moves very fast, and can also evade the ground. It is difficult for the Crusher alone to defeat this kind of opponent.
But even so, Lin didn't intend to make the crushers back down, but made them stand in a line and take a direct charge towards the target.
Seeing this, the Shensha Bus let out a roar, but it retreated into the ground, leaving only a large hole on the ground.
Shall we get into the cave and chase after it? Lin hesitated a little, when the earthquake sounded again.
'Boom! ’
The next moment, the Shensha bus suddenly burrowed out of the smasher group. The impact of the drill directly sent more than ten smashers flying into the air more than ten meters high, and then fell heavily to the ground.
Then, the deep sand bus retracted into the ground again at a very fast speed, and it seemed to escape into the depths of the ground at once, and Lin couldn't even feel its movement...
What a troublesome opponent.
The internal cells of these crushers that fell to the ground were seriously damaged, and Lin needed to quickly restore the structure of their bodies, and then Lin let the crushers used start to spread out in the vine fern jungle and retreat.
The deep sand bus seems to be quite close to attack, and Lin can only hear its sound. I don't know why, does it have some kind of noise reduction method?
Lin is also curious about the origin of this deep sand bus, is it here for hunting? Or to attack? And it's daytime, but it doesn't seem to be afraid, but it does not release Aztec to attack.
Could it be that the Aztecs were afraid of light, but not the deep sand bus?
In any case, Lin must grab one to study.
Behemoth is flying here. Usually, Behemoth is more than a kilometer above the glittering forest, and it takes a long time to fly over.
The deep sand bus vibrated from the ground again. It seemed to have been following a smasher, because they were all scattered, so it had to chase one of them, and the smasher happened to be running back in the direction of the Glitter Woods. of.
Is it going to follow to the Glitterwood?
Thinking, Lin immediately stopped the crusher, and at the moment when it stopped, the ground in front of the crusher suddenly cracked, and a pair of big jaws directly bit it.
But just as the deep sand bus bit the crusher, a huge shadow suddenly appeared in the sky, and Behemoth finally arrived at this time.
The deep sand bus bit the crusher and quickly retreated, but Behemoth shuffled a long line with a barb at the front from under his head at a faster speed, and before the deep sand bus escaped into the ground, it just hooked. Into the scales on the back of the deep sand bus.
The 'string' that pulls the deep-sand bus is made up of a mixture of various strong and tough cells and a small amount of husk, and has a very strong pulling force. Lin has long researched this thing, just want to use it to catch the deep-sand bus .
The deep sand bus dived into the sand, and when it found that it could not continue to sink, it began to twist its body and struggled, and Behemoth stretched out more tentacles to tighten the line, and then began to go with all his strength. Go up in the air!
The ground below is constantly shaking. This deep sand bus is smaller than the last one, so its strength is much smaller than that of Behemoth, but it is still trying its best to drill down, not wanting to be pulled out. sand.
Behemoth burst into full force, and began to swell his body to increase his buoyancy. Under the pull of the powerful force, countless cracks appeared on the ground, and finally burst apart with a bang, and this huge monster in the sand was finally pulled by Lin. In the air!
