4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

Chapter 100 Suffocating Ashes

Above the fern forest, a strong wind and sand suddenly blew up, and they filled the sky above the jungle like a storm, covering everything and rushing towards Lin's troops violently.

Lin had seen countless sandstorms in the desert, but this time, it was not an ordinary sandstorm... Lin guessed what the Inca swarm was going to do, and Lin's troops were also ready to deal with it.

Under the sandstorm, it is the flaming fern jungle. The structure of the fern is very flammable. Under the raging flames, they keep making a 'crackling' sound, and the beating fire distorts the whole underground world. The air, and at this moment, some small dust particles gently floated above the sea of ​​​​fire.

'call'!

The flame that touched the sand grains expanded several times in an instant, and the burning flames continued to increase along the sand grains in the air, and finally extended to reach the dust storm over the forest.

'boom! ! ! ’

At this moment, the entire underground world was illuminated by fiery red light, and the entire sandstorm turned into a huge flame storm, with intense heat, this flame storm swept over everything on the ground, no matter what. Is it the jungle, or Lin's army.

The flame storm dissipated after only a few seconds, but it swept away the jungle area for several kilometers. When Lin's vision slowly recovered, she could only see that the surrounding area became a piece of scorched earth.

All the trees, all the corpses, turned into blackened pieces, the ground on the ground was also covered with black, and even the far border, the wall of death spikes, was burnt out by flames.

This is the most spectacular sight Lin has ever seen. I didn't expect it to be made by living things.

Lin's troops located in the territory of the Inca swarm, almost all of them were dyed with a layer of black ashes. But there was almost no serious damage. before the attack. Lin had already thought that the Inca swarm might burn her fern forest as a means of attack, so the cortex of each of Lin's troops had a certain fire resistance effect.

Although not many of them can really move freely in the flames, because if you add fire-resistant carapaces to each unit, it may affect their various abilities, but they are also covered at least with the ability to retreat from the flames. skin.

Although the firestorm was terrifying, the duration was too short to destroy Lin's troops.

However, now Lynn's troops have encountered a new problem - oxygen

The storm of flames seemed to burn the oxygen out of the air. Almost every unit of Lin's troops can feel a heavy suffocation. They can't find any oxygen in the air, only a lot of smoke and poisonous gas after the flames burn.

In the absence of oxygen, almost all creatures will die quickly, but Lin's troops will not, they can remain in a life-sustaining state without dying, but because there are many structures in the body that require oxygen, in this state is Unable to move, but in a state of slumber.

Lin has only a few units that can move without oxygen, such as 'Sliders'. A worm-like creature with an ancient and simple body structure. Lin generally uses it to explore some anaerobic areas, such as deep underground and deep sea water.

In addition, most of the flying units in Lin's army have airbags in their bodies. Usually, the airbags contain oxygen that can last for 7,600 seconds, but Lin doesn't want to consume this oxygen now. Unless the situation is urgent, Lin will keep these units inactive. Active state, waiting for air to recover.

This is the first time that Lin has encountered such a thing. It seems that the preparation is a little lacking. It seems that in the future, she will have to find a way to develop some units that can move quickly and fight even without oxygen.

However, it is indeed difficult to imagine such a large-scale hypoxia...

The disappearance of oxygen affected the luminous creatures at the top of the cave, and the light on the top of the cave began to disappear in pieces. Soon, it turned into a night-like area.

Darkness, suffocation, inability to move, all these unfavorable circumstances came together, and it was also a perfect opportunity for the Inca swarm to attack, but they did not appear.

Apparently, the Inca swarms couldn't stand the lack of oxygen either. They restricted Lin's activities while also restricting their own activities, and they also burned large areas of their woodlands.

This seems to be called 'injuring the enemy and not oneself'.

The glider is more than one meter long. Hundreds of creepers climbed out of Lin's sleeping troop, and they began to search the nearby area in the dark. Although the creepers have a primitive structure, they still have the sense of smell, hearing, and even sound wave detection. class capabilities, as it is meant to be used to explore various environments.

At the same time, they can also quickly digest and decompose food like collectors, and Lyn let them search for nearby scorched corpses and devour them to obtain nutrients.

In the environment full of scorched smoke, the glider kept making 'click' sounds. Lin composed the obtained images in her thoughts, and quickly colored them into real scenes. In the ravaged field, there was only scorched black matter all over the ground, and the only intact objects were the two large Earthbreakers. Their carapaces were obviously resistant to flames, and there was not even a trace of burning on them.

Lin let dozens of skaters get into the bodies of the two Earthbreakers, and began to devour and decompose the body structure of the creature with enormous power, although most of them were blown to pieces by Lin.

"The Inca swarm, the maker of destruction, must be exterminated." The head worm is now looking at the image of the displayer, and Lin can fully display the echo image on the displayer.

When it saw the firestorm coming, the headworm even rolled back a few times in fright, and after seeing the charred wasteland behind the flames, it was full of anger, although the level of anger did not see the ground splitter being killed. 'Improper Operation' so high.

"Firestorm, wantonly increase the range, cause huge damage, destroy the area is too large, stupid and absurd tactics, only hurt yourself."

The head worm seems to be very disgusted with the flame storm of the Inca swarm. This attack method does cause too much damage to the surrounding environment, and it may also hurt its own troops. This feels quite wasteful.

Lin believes that something that will only do huge damage to the target should be researched, just like the recent 'art creator', Lin researched it into an explosion that is easier to control, the damage to herself is getting smaller and smaller, and it is not powerful to the target. Change.

In addition, Lin found that the head worms did not seem to have much opinion on the fact that their own group was probably destroyed by the Inca swarm, but the other behaviors of the Inca swarm made it very angry. At the beginning, he proposed 'peaceful exchange It's kind of funny that 'it has become 'must be extinct' now.

The gliders moved quickly in the charred woodland, and when they raised their heads, they could see the light and woods in the distance, which probably did not belong to the oxygen-deficient range, where the flame storm had not been affected.

Maybe the Inca swarms were waiting there, ready to launch their next attack on Rin, or maybe they thought Rin's troops were all burned to death?

In any case, it is more than two kilometers away from here, and the Inca swarm cannot directly attack this side by means of projectiles. Before they come over, this war is considered a 'suspended' stage. Before the suspension ends, Lin needs to try her best to Recycle surrounding nutrients to replace losses.

Although it is said that the losses are only some 'cannon fodder'.

The gliders are scattered around the troops. There are many relatively complete barbecued corpses. Because it is easy to digest after roasting, the gliders eat quickly. The last one was alive.

'Goo...gum...'

Suddenly, to the east of the unit, the skaters gathered to eat a barbecue heard some strange noises.

A skater stopped to eat and clicked to explore his surroundings.

In the echo image, Lin found an uncolored object. Uncolored means that Lin has never seen it before. This object is more than three meters long, and its body is fat and oval. It looks like one that Lin has seen in the sea. Creatures called 'sea cucumbers'.

The 'sea cucumber' has many calves under its body and many thick thorns on its back. It moves at a slow speed towards the direction of Lin's troops. There are also many sea cucumbers around. To Lin's troops.

Seeing their speed, Lin estimated that they were creatures that did not need oxygen, and they were probably the troops of the Inca swarm to attack Lin's troops, but because their speed was too slow, it would take a long time to climb here.

In Lin's mind, the sea cucumbers were all white, which made them particularly easy to identify in the charred environment, and the glider kept making sounds to detect every movement of the sea cucumbers.

'Goo...'

The sea cucumbers wriggled their bodies, swallowed a lot of ashes under their bodies, and then sprayed these ashes towards Lin's troops. On the periphery of the troops, some crushers were buried by these ashes.

Does this make any sense?

Looking at the sea cucumber's movements, Lin was a little puzzled. Could it be that she thought that Lin's troops were dead, so they had to bury them?

Forget it, no matter how many, just kill them all.

Lin told all the skaters to stop eating, and they surrounded the sea cucumbers that were spraying ashes around the unit. The sea cucumbers seemed to be aware of it and moved their bodies to escape, but the slow speed prevented them from being able to escape from the siege of the skaters.

The slither's mouth has a ring of sharp teeth. They climbed on the sea cucumber, bit a hole in the sea cucumber's cortex and drilled into the sea cucumber, and began to bite various organs in the sea cucumber.

The internal structure of the sea cucumber is quite simple, just like the primitive creatures 100 million years ago, which may be the troops 'resurrected' from the Inca swarm.

The appearance of sea cucumbers allowed Lin to obtain more nutrients, and now, the surrounding air is slowly recovering.

It seems that the suspension of the war is over. (To be continued..)
