Chapter 4 Raiders
Lin watched the phages slowly grow bigger, devouring the fungi on the entire island. The nutrients, water, and everything they needed for growth were plundered from the fungi.
If this is the plague fungus, then the phage is the plague of fungi.
All the bacteria dust on the phages are slowly eaten away. The lysate secreted by the plague fungus is very rare, but there is no corresponding method. The lysate of the phages can even convert it into nutrients.
In this way, in the end, the phages will replace the plague fungus to cover the entire island, and then slowly grow larger at its core, gathering all the nutrients together to form a huge egg, and then Behemoth can spread the Its recovery, this nutrient can also be used to do many things.
In this way, Lin can use all the plague fungi. Although I don’t know how many other islands will have these fungi, at least I don’t have to worry about them being infected. Next, Lin asked the bomber and Behemoth to deal with them nearby. There are several islands of fungi, Lin found that some islands have been infected for a long time. When the nutrients are exhausted, the fungi still rely on rainwater and attract flying fish or sea creatures to live on the island for a long time, relying on the occasional flying Organisms that can spread fungal dust to considerable distances.
Next, Bechymos and the bombers continued to use phages to sweep the nearby islands. After these islands were cleaned up, plants should grow again, but they had to be completely cleaned up. Lin found some mycelia Extending deep underground, they seem determined to exhaust all nutrients, but phages can also grow mycelium-like 'tentacles' to extend deep underground with the mycelium.
They are struggling to survive. And Lin is working hard to exterminate them. I don't know how long this war will last? But as long as there are fungi. Lynn will fight them, because their life is an extinction.
Moreover, they are rich in nutrients and quite useful. Although the ashes after being burned with fire are edible, the nutrients are much less, and the most nutrients are still eaten alive.
While Bechymos is working hard, the aspects of Leviathan are also slowly being explored.
At this time, Leviathan also found some interesting creatures in the jungle.
The Leviathan is now deep in the jungle. The trees here are relatively far apart, which is suitable for large-scale animal activities. Lin saw the second large-scale creature besides the dome dragon. This creature is called a stone beast dragon. There are 1.7 meters, fat creatures. Lin estimates that each one weighs about two tons, which is considered a very large creature.
There are two tusks in the mouth of this creature. They roam in groups in the forest. They use these tusks to dig out the bark and eat the structures inside, and they are also used to dig the roots of some dwarf plants and so on.
There is also a small creature beside the Stone Beast Dragon,
Lin called it the 'shield-headed dragon'. The head of this kind of dragon seems to be hardened like a ball. They move on all fours and are only half the size of the stone beast dragon. They follow the stone beast dragon to eat the debris they dug and a small plant.
A simple symbiotic relationship emerged between these two plant-eaters, and Lynn found that many of these reptile evolutions liked to eat plants. They prefer to eat these immobile creatures rather than fight other animals. This makes Lin feel that they are weaker than arthropods. They don't have armor and hydraulic systems like arthropods, and their skin is relatively not thick enough, and they lack many attack methods. All they have to do is dig up plants, which is quite simple.
But plants are not easy to deal with. Although they have no brains, they will come up with many ways.
Lin found that most of the plants in this jungle were poisonous. They were not poisonous in their normal state. They only secreted toxins when their leaves and bark were torn. Strong ingredients, called 'spicy'.
This is completely different from the Twisted Jungle. Although Twisted Trees can defend against flames and lightning, they are not poisonous. This is because large arthropods do not eat them very much.
And now Lin still doesn't quite know what's going on with the plant that shoots out 'excitement needles'.
But it wasn't them that Lynn found interesting, but another creature that was stalking these plant-eating creatures.
Because plants are poisonous, these plant-eating creatures will not eat the same tree for too long, and they will shift their targets before it secretes too much toxin. It can be said to bite here and there, and there is also a small carnivorous creature that is They followed.
This kind of creature is called "primordial dragon" by Lin.
These creatures stand on two legs, move quickly, are small in size, only about 1.7 meters in length, and are small creatures of about 50 kilograms. They will climb trees with sharp claws. Now there is a primitive dragon hiding in a high branch In between, observing the group of stone beast dragons below.
Leviathan could detect that there were more than 30 others of its kind in its vicinity, but all of its kind remained motionless. Only one primitive dragon was quietly moving among the branches, following the shield-headed dragon and A group of stone beast dragons.
This kind of species usually has relatively high intelligence, and is very good at defeating larger opponents with a small and weak body, so it is worth observing.
The trailing primitive dragon stared closely at the stone beast dragon walking at the back. This stone beast dragon was smaller in size and slower in movement, so it was a good target. When this creature slowly walked to the primitive When the dragon is below...
"Wow!" Suddenly the primitive dragon yelled, and all the companions around it... fled in an instant. They jumped quickly in the bushes and disappeared without a trace. The stone beast under the tree The dragon and the shield-headed dragon also looked frightened, and ran frantically through the jungle.
After a while, all the creatures in the jungle escaped...
Of course, it was not without reason that they all escaped.
A huge creature suddenly rushed out of the jungle. It was about four meters tall and estimated to be twelve meters long. This giant beast was covered in dark red scales. It stood on its thick hind legs, while its front legs were thick and sharp. With sharp claws and a huge open mouth full of sharp teeth, this creature is called the 'tyrant monitor lizard' by Lynn, and it is a large predator.
Among the predators among the dinosaurs, Lin felt that they were not as imposing as the large arthropods, which may have something to do with too few legs.
It rushed out late, and all the surrounding creatures ran away, so the carnivorous monster took the Leviathan who was observing nearby as a target, and rushed over suddenly.
'Boom'!
A bomb from Leviathan exploded next to the Tyrant Monitor Lizard's head, and the solution caused corrosion scars on its scales, but it roared and charged forward without fear.
Lin's bomb just now was just to make it think of running away, but seeing the violent appearance of this tyrant monitor lizard, Lin speculated that it might have something to do with that kind of red tree, which made these creatures even crazier.
The tyrant monitor lizard rushed up and opened its mouth and bit Leviathan's head armor fiercely. Under the weight of its bite force, some cracks appeared on Leviathan's carapace, and some structures inside began to slowly break apart. .
Leviathan's armor is not very thick in order to be able to fly, and it seems that it has not been updated for a long time, but Lin is also surprised by the strength of this creature, which can reach this level without the muscle structure and hydraulic system of arthropods Bite force?
At this moment, the tyrant monitor lizard began to shake its head violently, tearing off a piece of carapace on Leviathan's head with great force, but Leviathan's wound did not bleed out, and before being torn apart, Lin Stop the blood vessels.
Arthropods have more liquid or venom, while reptiles prefer the appearance of power. The tyrant monitor lizard spat out the carapace in its mouth, and roared again to bite Leviathan's wound. At this moment, Leviathan stretched out More than a dozen tentacles came out, completely entwining the mouth and head of the tyrant monitor lizard.
The monitor lizard shook its head violently, trying to break free from the tentacles, but Lin let all the tentacles forcefully fix its head at the same time, and then pushed its mouth away.
Then Lin threw a bomb into its mouth with a tentacle.
This new type of explosive bomb is based on the research of the biological "explosive spike ball" that has been seen before. The explosive bomb slides along the mouth of the monitor lizard, and finally rolls into the digestive organ. 'Stomach'.
Then...'Boom! '.
The bomb didn't explode, but a large number of spikes suddenly grew from its surface, piercing the tyrant monitor lizard's stomach in an instant, causing it to let out a violent roar in great pain.
Leviathan let go of the tentacles, and the tyrant monitor lizard fell to the ground and struggled in pain. Lin thought it would continue to attack, but did it prioritize pain?
'whoosh'
Suddenly, Marin heard the sound of a sharp object passing through the air, and a sharp wooden thorn with a length of 1.5 meters pierced the wound on Leviathan's head.
Lin felt that the end of this wooden thorn was coated with a kind of venom, which seemed to be a neurotoxin. Even if Lin didn't deliberately expel it, it would have little effect on Leviathan, but what happened to this wooden thorn? When Lin was fighting the tyrant monitor lizard, she noticed that certain creatures were ambushing nearby, ready to sneak attack.
This creature is now hiding among the branches. It seems to be wondering why Leviathan didn't fall down and dare not show up. Not only is the toxin, the head of the general creature is the location of the brain, which can be said to be the key point, but Leviathan Without a brain, even if the heart explodes, Lin can control the flow of blood vessels without dying. The only way to kill Lin's troops is to bleed profusely. If too much water is lost, there is no way to repair it, but if soaked in water Here is another situation.
That being the case, Lin immediately let Leviathan lie on the ground, with tentacles scattered around feebly, showing a poisoned appearance.
Seeing this, the creature on the tree was puzzled for a while, and then began to climb out after watching Leviathan remain motionless... At the same time, more than a dozen of its kind on the tree also appeared together, slowly jumping from the tree Next, approached Leviathan and the tyrant monitor lizard that was still rolling around on the ground.
