Chapter 4 The Ediacaran Worm

'click...'

The ice layer continued to vibrate, and there were more and more cracks around. Lin asked the diggers to retreat back into the aircraft carrier, but it still kept the small eyeball outside to observe the movement.

At this time, under the successive vibrations, the tunnel dug by the diggers in the ice had collapsed. At the same time, Lin also saw that behind the transparent ice layer, a huge and incomparably large shadow gradually appeared.

what is this?

Lin was extremely curious about this thing, but now Lin can only see its blurred body through the ice, unable to understand the details.

The only thing that Lin has confirmed so far is that its size is almost the same size as Lin's aircraft carrier, and it keeps moving forward in the ice layer, and its direction is exactly where Lin is.

Every time the creature moved, more cracks appeared in the surrounding ice, which meant that it was advancing through the ice with great force.

What is this?

Lin had never seen such a huge creature, even the largest amoeba couldn't grow that big.

Although Lin had seen the scene of a large-scale cell community gathering, this is obviously not a huge cell community, it is a whole creature!

Are there other organisms that can combine multiple cells?

Lin has never seen such a creature, which is why it has always been invincible.

'Ka...' As the creature got closer and closer, there was only a thin layer of ice between Lin and it, and at the next moment, this layer of ice finally collapsed. Under the attack of this creature, The ice wall shattered, turned into countless small pieces of debris floating in the water, and then dissolved and disappeared.

At this time, this creature also appeared in front of Lin's eyes.

It looks very strange, not like a normal cell, its head is a semi-circular structure, it seems to be very hard, Lin watched this creature use its head to break the ice.

Its cylindrical body is very long, with thread-like continuous protrusions on it, extending all the way into the ice cave it dug out behind.

And under the semicircular head, there are ten symmetrical tentacles, which seem to be used for movement.

No, that may not be called tentacles, because these 'tentacles' are not as flexible as real tentacles, they seem to bend only in one direction, are rigid, and have several sections in the middle.

The word 'arthropod' might be more appropriate for this creature.

At the end of these arthropods is a pincer-like structure, and the inside is full of serrations. Lin came up with a new word 'claw limbs' to describe this structure.

This is a brand new creature, not only has a huge body size, but its body structure has never been seen before, and its appearance has also brought many new words.

"Bucker worm", Lin felt that the name was not bad.

Although Lin likes the name, she doesn't like what this creature is doing now.

The Buckler Worm has now dug through the ice and is swimming toward the location of Lin's aircraft carrier. Lin doesn't know what it will do, and it doesn't know what to do with itself.

attack it? ignore it?

Lin will not act rashly when facing an opponent equivalent to her. Who knows if the opponent has the ability to destroy her? But if you don't move, the opponent may not attack.

Lynn hesitated.

But the other party did not.

The huge worm swam to the cortex of the aircraft carrier. It touched the surface of the cortex with its arthropods, as if exploring something. Then, its serrated pincer-like end suddenly opened and clamped on the cortex.

Then, with a strong pull, the large cortex on the surface of the aircraft carrier was torn off by it, and then he put it into his mouth without hesitation.

The mouth of the Buckler Worm looked like a hole with a ring of small sharp blades around it. Lin's torn skin was brought to the mouth, and then cut into smaller pieces by those sharp blades before being swallowed.

it hurts……

The cortex was torn apart and then smashed and swallowed. This series of pain made Lin no longer hesitate, and she instantly made up her mind to destroy this enemy.

Fight back!

Lin shook the tentacles on the side of the aircraft carrier vigorously, and while the aircraft carrier twisted her entire body, she threw away the round shield worm, and opened the passages on all the aircraft carriers, allowing all the Devourers to move out and attack the target!

so hard!

This was Lin's first feeling after attacking the Buckler Worm. Because the opponent's semi-circular and smooth head made it impossible for the Devourer to speak, Lin concentrated on attacking the opponent's arthropods.

But the devourer's mouth is composed of cone cells and acid injectors, which can shatter the composition of all cellular organisms but cannot shake the hard shell on the arthropod of the Buckler worm.

In fact, they had a hard time even biting on the smooth hard shell, after all the largest Devourers were not half the size of the Buckler worm's pincers, and the smallest had not even the serrated tips on their pincers.

Moreover, most of Lin are small devourers. Originally, large devourers were used to deal with large-scale cell communities, but after all, they were too big to drill in the gaps of gravel, so the number was very small.

The Buckler Worm didn't feel the slightest bit about Lin's attack. It twisted up and swam, pounced on Lin's aircraft carrier again, and tore off pieces of cortex from its body with its arthropods.

Because the cortex was torn apart, the single cells in the aircraft carrier flowed out, but the Buckler worm showed no interest in these tiny single cells, and was still tearing the cortex of the aircraft carrier. It seemed to only eat structures composed of multiple cells.

If this continues, Lin may not be completely killed, but the aircraft carrier will definitely be lost.

Absolutely not! But what to do?

Lin began to think quickly, and it noticed the twistable joints on the arthropods of the round shield worm, which showed white, which was different from the surrounding black hard shell, and should be more fragile.

Lin asked the Devourers to focus on attacking these joints, but its limbs kept shaking, making it very difficult to aim. However, under Lin's constant attempts, a large Devourer bit the wrist of one of the limbs. on the joints.

The joints are made of a softer white substance. Lin made the devourer keep twisting his body. Finally, the thorns and the forceful tearing of the lysate and the cone cells caused the devourer to successfully tear off a piece of the body. Big chunks of soft white stuff.

After tearing the joint, Lin found a large group of blue cells gushing out from the joint's crack. Lin immediately thought that these cells should be what constitutes the Buckler worm, and it immediately made the devourers start to bite these gushing cells. , and let some small devourers drill into the cracks in the joints.

It is very dark inside, without any light, but in order to move in the darkness of the lower layer of sand grains, some devourers of Lin have a lot of flashing explosive balls mixed in their cortex, so even if it is dark, they can see clearly inside. environment of.

The inside of the arthropod seems to be a pipe-like place, filled with a weak water flow, and there are dense blue cells everywhere. They are constantly swimming towards the crack that Lin tore out just now, completely ignoring it. Lin's Devourer invaded.

There are some larger blue cells that appear to be physically plugging the breach, preventing more blue cells from getting out.

crunch them.

Lin did not hesitate, and the devourers immediately went up to attack the blocked blue cells. At the same time, Lin also let more devourers rush in through the crack and began to attack the blue cells inside.

At this time, the Buckler Worm finally reacted. It seemed to feel the pain and vigorously shook the injured joint, but the remaining limbs were still tearing at Lin's aircraft carrier cortex.

Because of its swing, it became difficult for Lin to invade from the outside, but the wound had drilled into dozens of Devourers, and Lin began to let them desperately attack everything around.

At the same time, Lin began to let the remaining devourers continue to attack other joints, and let a large number of explosive balls and cone cells swim out of the damaged cortex of the aircraft carrier and rushed directly to the mouth of the Buckler Worm.

Since the outside can't bite, then attack the inside directly!
