Chapter 13 The Counterattack of the Plague
"Stupid creature, roar!"
Brainworm and Little Flying Dragon are staying in the largest room in the rocky mountain at the edge of the jungle, and now the two of them are doing some strange things, which Brainworm calls 'learning'.
Most creatures can inherit the abilities of the creatures that produced it, but Lin found that some dinosaurs, including the little flying dragon, are different. Some of their abilities need to be taught by the "elders", otherwise they will not understand many things. That's one of the reasons why they have bigger brains.
Because the little flying dragon has no elders, the head worm has to come as an elder to teach the little flying dragon to do various things. Of course, the brain worm doesn't know how the little flying dragon teaches, but it says there is no problem.
"Gah!"
Xiao Feilong immediately seemed to understand the meaning of the brain worm, but this was also related to the brain wave information that the brain worm was constantly sending out. Xiao Feilong opened his mouth and made a small sound.
"Mispronunciation, correct roar, can make the momentum extremely sufficient, even lethal, it should be like this."
As he said that, the headworm made a "beep--" sound, which was a special sound it made with its vocal sac, as if everything was constantly vibrating.
"Ga, ga!" The little flying dragon seemed to be stimulated by this sound, showing pain, covering its hearing organs with its forelimbs.
"Understand my teachings, and you will have a future." The brainworm's pronunciation lasted for more than ten seconds and then stopped. Xiao Feilong's auditory organs finally got a rest.
But the headworm didn't give the little flying dragon a rest, it immediately said: "Twist the body, increase flexibility, learn."
Saying that, the head worm's body began to bend. Although its body looks fat, it can touch its own tail with its head, but this is also related to its lack of a skeleton.
After seeing this, the little flying dragon imitated the behavior of the headworm, it bit its own tail with its head, but it couldn't reach it. As a result, it turned into chasing its own tail and turning in circles.
After spinning more than 60 times, the little flying dragon swayed and fell to the ground.
"Behave well, resist dizziness." The headworm gave it a rest time of tens of seconds this time, and then continued: "Start rolling, do the same."
Then the head worm quickly rolled on the ground, and the little flying dragon learned to roll a few times after seeing it.
"Very well, roll over. Dodge enemies,
Works wonders. "
The little flying dragon seemed to know that the head worm was praising it, so it excitedly ran towards the head worm and climbed onto the head worm.
"Stupid creature, look forward, next you will learn about air warfare. That is, the future."
The headworm threw the little flying dragon on its body to the ground, making it look at the displayer in front of it.
The picture on the display shows a large group of fliers, a hundred of them in total, flying at high speed in the air, and their task is to besiege an island occupied by a plague fungus that is one kilometer wide and five hundred meters long.
Among the several fungal-infected islands Lin discovered. This island is the largest, and the plants on it have not been completely decomposed, and there are many thick tree remains. Of course, these tree remains are also very suitable for fungi to use.
Before the flyers approached the island, the fungi on the island were ready. They used a large mushroom structure about three meters high to aim at the air and used it as an 'anti-aircraft gun'. They shot out wood chips by means of explosions, etc. Use high-speed sharp wood chips to shoot down high-altitude flyers.
when approaching the island. The fliers began to take off, and they rose rapidly in the starry sky under the dark night. As long as they reached an altitude of about a thousand meters, they were completely outside the range and perception range of the fungus.
Lynn discovers the fungi's way of transmitting messages, and the fungus on an island is under attack. The other island will indeed know that when they are attacked, they will release a large amount of odor. This odor can be sensed by the island of fungi as far as ten kilometers away and produce a corresponding response.
This phenomenon Lin has found in many plants in the mainland, that is, if a plant is eaten by a herbivorous dinosaur, it will release a smell, and after the nearby plants feel it, they will all start to secrete venom.
However, the smell of the plague fungus is more interesting. It will secrete different smell information when it is attacked by different attacks. For example, it will emit one smell when it is attacked by flames, and another smell when it is attacked by phages.
This method of smell delivery is relatively recent, and they didn't do it when they first attacked them.
They even know how to think, for example, they discovered that the phage was brought by the flyer, so they knew that they had to shoot down the flyer first.
Lynn has not seen fungi with eye-like structures, but they can indeed 'observe' the surrounding situation. It is not clear how they 'observe', but it takes a long time from 'observation' to 'reaction', So they need advance notice of which islands are under attack in order to defend themselves.
Although, the methods they use... are not very good, but recently, these fungi have begun to have more ways to defend themselves.
Hundreds of flyers swooped down from the sky, and facing them were a large number of towering mushrooms. The heads of these mushrooms began to expand continuously after the flyers approached a distance of about 300 meters. There was a loud noise on the entire island, and countless exploding wood chips shot towards the flyers in the air.
The fliers changed their movements instantly, moving their bodies at high speed, dodging the flying wood chips.
The wood chips have not been carefully aimed, but win by quantity, so there will still be many fliers who have nowhere to hide and will be shot down by the wood chips shot by the fungus. island, and this time the fungus will deploy a second line of defense.
On the surface of the island, it is not only covered with hyphae, but also a hairy moss-like structure, which Lynn calls a 'miasma carpet', when the wreckage of the flyer approaches, they will release a super high Concentration of poisonous gas, this kind of poisonous gas is a kind of violent toxin that can make cells die quickly after being absorbed. Its function is mainly similar to that of a lysate, which can decompose cells and make organisms rot.
The wreckage of the flyer falls on the miasma carpet, and will soon be surrounded by a large number of hyphae, and the phages on it also die because of absorbing the miasma.
These scattered phages are too small to effectively filter the miasma.
Even so, Lin still made the fliers rush to the island continuously. After the mushrooms of the plague fungus were blown up, they couldn’t continue shooting. Many fliers successfully approached the island. It curled up before itself, exuding a layer of rapidly hardening shell substance, and then dissolved itself in the body, rapidly changing the structure inside.
The structure of the flyer is quite simple, and it changes very quickly. Soon, a new type of arms tore apart the crust and crawled out of it in large numbers. A new, more powerful unit. (to be continued...)
