Chapter 16 Water Flow

Lynn's plan was to keep occupying the rock, occupying all the food crevices, but the sudden flow of water interrupted her thoughts.

Water, what Lin understands about it is that it is all over the world. With water, its cells can move. Water has always been very quiet, but sometimes it will instantly turn into deadly ice crystals, and sometimes it will be like this now, became violent and terrifying.

A torrent passed by at a high speed and swept across the entire rock area. Countless cells were instantly swept up by the current and disappeared without a trace.

Lin made most of the cells hide behind some taller stones, and the diggers and cone cells could also use sawtooths to insert themselves in the crevices of the rocks, but this could not prevent the mass attrition of the community.

Another strong current rushed through, and a large number of cells were rushed out, leaving Lin's sight in an instant.

Lost more than three thousand.

Lin counted the numbers silently. Those cells that were washed away did not actually escape Lin's thoughts. Lin could still feel them, but when Lin let them swim back, they would soon be washed farther and scattered by the torrent. , After several consecutive times, Lin felt that they had almost no hope of swimming back.

Lin didn't know why the water flow became like this, just like it once didn't know why the water suddenly froze, even though the community had grown a lot, Lin still had a lot of puzzles. Facing the fury of the water, Lin didn't even have a chance to resist, so she could only hold on.

This torrent is not continuous, but intermittent wave after wave, and there is no regularity at all, making it difficult for Lin to calculate the timing.

Another wave of water washed away a large number of cells, and Lin no longer wanted to stay here and wait to die. Who knows how long these currents will last? If this continues, Lin will lose at least more than 90% of the community, and only the remaining part will hide in the rocks

The few cells in the back, although they are washed away and will not die, are very easy to be attacked by viruses or other cells after being dispersed. Even if Lin's thoughts are there, they will not get lost, but Lin does not know how long it will take for them to swim back.

Come.

So Lin went into action, but instead of fighting the current, it went deeper, to a place where no current could affect it.

Lin needs to hide in the rocks.

But no matter what kind of cell it is, it can't dig a solid rock, so Lin has only one way to hide in the rock.

It's through the crack where the hot water is sprayed.

That crack is enough to hold dozens of cells. Lin had also observed it before. The hot spring crack became wider and wider as it went down. Lin calculated that there might be a huge space inside.

The hot springs are actually just spewed out by some small cracks on the walls of the cracks. As long as they go deep, the water will definitely not be so hot.

In this way, the remaining question is just how to get through the hot springs that were hot in the first place.

After the next wave of water flow passed by, Lin immediately gathered a large number of cells to swim to the hot spring crack, trying to enter before the next wave of water flow came, and Lin had already taken precautions against the hot spring in this crack.

Lin asked the huge storage person to form a shield in front to resist the rushing hot spring, and moved forward with the cells behind.

The impact of the hot spring is much smaller than that of the water flow outside, and even a community with a hot spring can easily move forward, not to mention that the hot spring is intermittent.

Lin has exercised the resistance of these storages to high heat before. Although they will die after being charged for a long time, even if they are killed by heat, Lin will let the cone cells evoke their corpses and continue to use them as heat-resistant shields. Using this method, Lin successfully let a large number of cells enter the hot spring rift.

The deeper you go, just as Lin thought, the surrounding space becomes more and more spacious. From the beginning, it can only accommodate dozens of cells to more than thousands. Lin feels that if she reaches the bottom, even if it is allowed to All of the groups come in without a problem.

And this depth,

There are no cracks in the surrounding cave walls, and the water temperature here has begun to return to normal.

It seems that luck is particularly good. Lin has not yet passed the next wave of water since she entered the rift, and a large number of its cells have been safe.

Just when Lin thought so, suddenly a violent current washed over the rock again, washing away many of Lin's cells that were still outside the crack.

However, Lin has now entered more than 70% of the community, and there are not many left outside.

Lin found that its colony also began to approach the bottom of the rift, which was very spacious and should be like a huge cave.

But there is a problem...

very dark.

Lin tried to judge the spaciousness of this space by relying on the sparse light from the entrance, but she couldn't see more detailed information.

If you leave the gap where the light shines directly, it will be endless darkness if you go further inside.

Is it an adventure into the dark? Or wait here until the water flow stops outside?

Either way, Lin didn't think it was a good idea.

……Um?

Lin suddenly saw a flash of light in the dark cave.

what is that?

The blue light spots flickered in Lin's field of vision. They were in the dark, and they went out in an instant, and then lit up in an instant, which aroused Lin's curiosity.

Lynn had never seen a light in the dark, it wanted to figure out what it was, but more concerned about whether it was a threat or safety.

So Lin let a few diggers swim to those luminous spots.

Feeling it, Lin learned from the digger's touch that the fluctuations of those light spots in the water... Is that... a living creature?

However, when the diggers got closer, suddenly the whole cave lit up!

Light……

Countless small light spots lit up one after another in Lin's sight, instantly forming a sea of ​​light as bright as a starry sky, dispelling all the darkness here.

Starry sky?

Lin found that when it saw this light, it acquired a new word, which seemed to be the word used to refer to the vast and boundless things.

Lin noticed that these rays of light were actually composed of countless small dots. These small dots were oval cells. They were only one-fifth the size of Lin's cells, but their bodies flashed with a wonderful blue light.

With the help of the light, Lin also noticed the whole picture of this cave. It was indeed very spacious and huge, and its size was even comparable to Lin's territory outside. The most important thing was that it was also full of those white and soft foods.

However, the food here does not come out of the cracks, but is like a layer of white paste glued to the rock that is covered on the cave wall in large quantities, and it is everywhere in the whole cave.

White cream? By the way, let's name these foods white paste.

These luminous little cells are eating these white pastes. Because there is enough food, they almost fill the entire cave, but even with such a large number, they seem to be very afraid of Lin. Lin found that the few close to the diggers only need to approach, The surrounding light-emitting cells will immediately escape.

It seems to have found a good place, and there are no strong enemies here, and it will not be affected by the current. What better place to develop a community than here?

That's right, as long as this group of weak things is killed...

Lin turned her attention to the large group of luminous cells here. With just one thought, a large number of diggers, cone cells, and acid injectors can easily and completely destroy this group of weak cells.

But Lin did not start.

Although they will emit light, if you kill them all, you can have a larger colony and a safe territory, and Lin may also evolve the ability to emit light in this environment, so it is useless to keep them...

Although she thought so, Lin looked at the flickering little cells, but she didn't do anything.

……This feeling……

It seems to have appeared before.
