Chapter 168 Abyss Graveyard

Lin's troops slowly moved away from the fog-shrouded 'Skull Island', and continued to move westward...

Skull Island has such thick fog because of the slow air flow, but the fog can be continuously replenished, and the oxygen will decrease sooner or later.

Therefore, Lynn made a final 'guarantee' for the creatures of Skull Island, a kind of 'oxygen ball' with a diameter of about three meters. This kind of troops is located in the sky above the island, and the surface is covered with green moss. They can collect moss The oxygen produced also filters the oxygen in the sea breeze, and the oxygen will be concentrated and released into the island through a long and straight 'tail' that extends into the island like a pipe.

Too much oxygen also kills organisms, so they don't release 100% oxygen, but other gases in the mix.

This is a fully automated unit, and Lin doesn't need to control them, nor manage them. They rely on absorbing light energy and decomposing various debris that comes with the sea breeze for a living, but the nutrients prepared in their bodies can maintain It's been a long time.

With these guarantees, Lin believes that those large arthropods can come back to life.

Then... let's move on.

I spent a lot of time on the 'Skull Island' and discovered a lot of mysteries. I don't know what the creature that made the egg is. There are so many things worth exploring.

At this time, Lin faced the endless ocean again, and this place was still so wide. After putting down the 'burden', Lin felt more relaxed.

In the next journey, just like before, slowly sailing on the endless ocean. The species in this sea are becoming more and more abundant. When the pioneers advanced in the sea. You can see many creatures that Doreen has never seen before, among which fish are relatively prosperous, and there are also some reptiles in the ocean.

Most of them have evolved in different ways because they are far apart. Although there is no problem with the large arthropods in the sea, they are not as strong in the ocean as they are on land. This is because they basically stay on the bottom of the sea. relation.

And the headworm returned to the boring stage. When it rolled on Bechymos' back in a boring way, Lin saw the island again...

Very small island.

The island that suddenly appeared in front of Lin's troops was only about ten meters wide. There's just gravel and a... stone on it.

Is this stone...the kind of stone where eggs are placed? Just when Lin was thinking this way, the stone suddenly made a sound of 'Gada'.

Sure enough.

This kind of stone will mean here... the range of activities of that kind of creature is quite large, and 'Skull Island' is just one of the ranges of activities.

Next, just as Lin thought, the troops encountered many islands during their journey. They were all very small, usually only a few meters to a dozen meters wide, but there were one or two islands with eggs placed on them. Stone.

There are also a lot of these islands. In three days and nights, Lin encountered more than sixty small islands. Their positions are irregular, it seems that the islands were not deliberately created by some creatures. As for the pebbles above, Lin didn't see the creatures that made them.

The habits of these creatures are very strange. They may place such 'echo eggs' on any land, but where are they themselves?

After these three days and nights of journey, these small islands no longer appeared on the surrounding sea surface, and the sea surface was as calm as ever, but the pioneers discovered something special under the water.

During the journey, the pioneers would occasionally go to the depths of the ocean to investigate the environment below, and during this dive, the pioneers came to an extremely deep place.

Usually there is almost no light at a depth of about 800 meters. This time the pioneer dived to a depth of about 1,600 meters and came to a dark and spacious space.

The seabed here seems to have suddenly become lower. In the place where there are islands in front, the seabed is still at a relatively high position and is full of creatures, but everything seems to have become dead here.

Pioneer turned on the light on his head and slowly moved forward in the dark deep sea. The light hardly illuminates anything here, but the subsidiary worms around Pioneer can use sound detection to explore the surrounding environment.

The detection range on the bottom of the sea is quite wide, basically reaching more than one kilometer. When the sound came out, Lin suddenly 'saw' a strange environment...

The pioneer is now located above a vast seabed. On the seabed, there are still many huge pillars. Each pillar is almost fifty meters high and ten meters in diameter. Moreover, on these pillars, there are still There are many small square openings.

Apparently it was something biologically made.

The Pioneer swam towards the group of giant pillars below. When approaching, these pillars trembled slightly due to the rotating water flow of the Pioneer. They seemed to be quite unstable. Lin also saw some collapsed on the seabed, which had been broken into several pieces. From this point of view, there may be no living things in it.

The Pioneer stopped in the water, let the subsidiary worms make some small warheads for deep sea exploration, and went to search among these submarine cylinder groups.

A large number of warheads poured into the square hole on the surface of the cylinder, and the light was on to observe the inside. The inside of these columns is hollow and full of cracks. Some kind of creatures should have used them as lairs, but look here Are those creatures dead? Or left?

Some warheads swam to explore the seabed below. The seabed here is covered by a large amount of gray gravel. On this beach, there are many sand dunes.

that is……

The light of a bullet suddenly hit a sand dune, and a sharp thing protruded from the sand dune, which seemed to be a claw structure of a creature.

The warheads immediately swam towards the sand dune, but when they got close to the sand dune, a big mouth full of sharp teeth suddenly rushed out of the sand, swallowing the several warheads in front of it in an instant.

Then it spat it out again, and it turned and ran away.

This creature seemed to be some kind of latent fish, but the warhead was hard and difficult to digest, and it was difficult to swallow, so it spit it out immediately.

And after the fish rushed out, the sand dune also disintegrated, and Lin saw something buried under the sand dune, which was the claw of some kind of arthropod creature, sharp and full of serrations, and the end was still connected to the In the gravel below.

It seemed that there was still a whole body underneath, Lin let the warheads rotate the body, drilled the sand and dust, so that the whole creature under the sand appeared.

this is……

The thing under the sand appeared in front of Lin's eyes, but it was different from what Lin thought. What appeared was not the body of a certain creature, but claws, many claws.

These claws are all empty shells, and the meat inside has long since been decomposed, but the shells remained, and were unexpectedly buried in large quantities in the gravel.

How could these claws be buried in large quantities in the gravel? Could it be that……

Lin suddenly thought of a possibility, Lin let all the warheads return to the pioneer, and then let the pioneer spin into the cylinder group at high speed.

A large number of columns collapsed and broke due to the impact of the pioneer's huge size. Under the rotation of the pioneer, the surrounding water flow formed a strong vortex, and the sand grains on the seabed below flew up one after another, revealing the hidden treasures buried under the sand. Huge amount of...claws.

Not just claws...

Under the detection of Lin's voice, it was found that these things buried in the gravel had claws and various carapace fragments, and they seemed to have accumulated quite a lot. It was already difficult to count how many there were. Hundreds of thousands.

This place seems to be a huge... a 'cemetery' of some kind of creature.

These creatures seem to have died from the war. Some of the carapaces have another creature's claws stuck on them, and most of the carapaces have scars. It seems that because of the accumulation of too much, these corpses have not been completely decomposed, and there are some smells of rotting corpses .

The trailblazer stops spinning and lets the attached worms search for the carapaces, break them down and examine them.

There are quite a lot of carapaces here, Lin found complete components among them, and pieced them together to form a complete creature. The strange thing is that among so many carapaces, Lin found that there were only two kinds of creatures in them.

Both creatures are about one meter in length, and the joint limbs all over the body are sharp claws with sawtooth. These two creatures are quite similar, but the details are different, and it is these two creatures that fought the war here. Many of the carapaces bear marks of being pierced by another creature's claws.

Wars and mass deaths are not surprising, but what is strange is that the structure of these creatures is not suitable for moving in the sea. They do not have a structure suitable for swimming. Throwing such creatures into the water will cause them to struggle It can't do anything, even if it reaches the bottom of the sea, it will move very slowly, and it cannot be used for war.

If it is on the ground, this form is very suitable for high-speed movement.

And there is a strange place.

Both of these creatures were parasitized species during the 'parasitic age' of the Inca swarm, and they are recorded on statues of the Inca swarm.

But the Inca swarm did not develop this species, and soon the Inca swarm did not mention this creature anymore...

From this point of view, this kind of creature seems to have encountered the relatively primitive Inca swarm, but what kind of creature are they? Is it a division of labor species? Are they extinct? Ever lived on land?

They will form such a huge number to launch a group attack, which has exceeded the scale of many group living creatures, but Lin only found one type in the carapace.

Maybe continuing to dig will find something? It may not be possible to find the shells of other arms.

But maybe there won't be an answer, just a pile of shells. (to be continued...)
