Chapter 64 Brain to Brain Battle

Lin also made some investigations on the small brains. Their armies generally ignore Lin's drillers, and the obsession with war between them is quite strong.

The small brain is similar in structure to the big one, but there is no sleeping area in its brain, and it is almost 100% functioning. Even so, it is difficult for it to attack the big brain.

In addition, the cerebellum also has a reproductive organ, and those arthropods that are fighting fungi outside are thrown out by it.

Lin has basically figured out these two brains. They are like this. The big one uses the nutrients passed down from the land to continuously reproduce the army, while the small one plunders the big nutrients to produce troops. A wonderful balance has been reached between the two. They can't kill anyone, they can only be in an eternal struggle.

No, this kind of war is not out of eternal balance. The big part of the brain is in a dormant area. Lin found that it is actually made by the small brain. It occasionally produces some special cell troops. Lin's The driller just saw this scene, these cells have a kind of camouflage ability, can sneak into the big brain, Lynn found that they contain a toxin, this toxin should make those areas of the big brain shut down.

Lin doesn't know what those areas are for, but it obviously affects the intelligence of the big brain. For example, the cells it releases are usually crazy, while the small ones are more elite and use tactics.

However, it is very difficult for the cerebellum to successfully sneak in once. Usually, it will be discovered and wiped out halfway through the infiltration. stop working.

How did they form this shape? Why do two brains stick together and keep fighting? How long have they been fighting? What is the relationship between these two brains and the plague fungus?

There are too many mysteries here, and Lin doesn't know where to start her research. Maybe she should go and see what's in the nearby cave? Maybe try reading their memories? Or rather...

Lin has a special idea... Maybe these two brains are originally one? It is true that there are occasional instances where if a particular area of ​​a creature's brain is damaged, which Lynn calls the 'connection center', damage to this area will cause a special problem in the creature's brain called 'splitting', after their connections have been damaged. It can cause one part of the brain to not know what the other part is thinking.

At this time, some interesting things will happen, for example, the two halves of the brain control the limbs separately, the movements are uncoordinated, etc., they may make the left leg go forward, and the other makes the right leg go back. This kind of creature usually Died soon, none survived...

But... the brain discovered by Lynn may be a living example. The two brains are thinking differently, and they are trying to get rid of each other!

These two brains will even dispatch the original immune cells to fight,

This may be related to their strong control ability, and if they are the brains of the plague fungus, perhaps this can explain the occasional display of intelligence in the plague army.

Lin also learned one thing about the ancient squid, the larger brain released signals. The purpose is to attract the ancient squid.

The reason why it attracts ancient squids may be to use them to do something, such as get rid of that small brain, but they have not succeeded. After all, ancient squids have their own ideas, and they probably like the feeling of receiving signals, but they But I have no idea what this signal is trying to tell them...

So what is Lynn going to do now? Destroy these two brains? Would this stop the plague fungus? Or help one of the two defeat the other. So maybe it's possible to communicate with them?

But let's finish exploring here first. The location of this crystal is not the end of the cave, and there may be something hidden in the depths.

Lin asked some of the assassins to stay here to watch the ancient squid 'dance', and some continued to go deep, while the drillers continued to explore the two brains. Lin just looked at it before, and there are many details Some were not observed.

The Assassins headed deeper into the cavern, in the same place as before. There are many crystallization clusters on the gravel-covered ground, but instead of echo eggs and the like, there are many... wreckage.

These wreckages have been broken beyond recognition, but it can be known that they are some kind of arthropod carapace. There are quite a few of them, almost covering the ground instead of gravel.

Lin asked the assassins to uncover these wreckages, and on the ground covered by them appeared what Lin had seen in the salt caves on the mainland...fossils of fungi.

The fossils are exactly like the ones there. There are many traces of mushrooms and mycelium protruding from the ground, which are everywhere under the wreckage. Most of the heads of the mushrooms are missing. Look at the traces of the stalk. Lynn thinks it's one of those mushrooms that explode, their heads blown off.

Is that so...

During the next journey, some larger wreckages appeared. These wreckages were not seriously damaged, and the original shape could be seen. This is a large arthropod creature. Lin speculates that it may be some kind of division of labor. Type of arms of the species.

Because there are quite a lot of them here, and the shattered fragments are all around them, and the carapaces of these large arms also have traces of corrosion. It is obvious that there has been a war here.

Lin almost guessed what was going on here, but she still had to explore it completely. This place should almost reach the end of the seabed cave.

The assassins found more and more wreckage, but there seemed to be only two forms. The cave here began to become more spacious. After walking for a while, the assassin's light found a huge thing in front of him.

This is... the head of the Plague Chief?

Could it be that there is also the head of the plague placed here? The assassins spread out to have a look, and found that there was only this one head around. This head was bigger than the previous one, but it seemed nothing special.

The assassins turned around and continued to move forward, but there was already an end in front of them. The light of the assassins illuminated a large rock wall in front of them, and there was a large pool of water on the ground.

It seemed that there was indeed no other way out. The assassins checked the rock wall at the end for a while, but Lin could not find any hidden passages. Then Lin also looked at the water pool. The "content" of this water pool is very rich. Not only are there many wrecks, but there are also many small fishes, and there are creatures such as trilobites, starfish and mantis shrimps, which are very small, only ten centimeters long.

Why are there so many creatures here? Thinking about it, Lin asked the assassin to dive into the pool, and found a cave with a diameter of more than one meter in the sand at the bottom.

Lin asked an assassin to drill into this cave, which was winding and complicated, and there were many sea creatures living here. After walking in it for hundreds of seconds, the winding cave gradually turned into a vertical upward direction. In the end, the assassin Arrived in an extremely open area - the ocean!

Looking at the boundless waters around, it was just as Lin thought, the cave just now led directly into the sea, that's why so many creatures got in.

However, the situation here seems to be unusual.

It should be in a relatively deep place, and the surrounding light is relatively dark, but Lin can still see the environment here clearly. There are many stone pillar-like structures around, and these stone pillars are covered with various holes.

The assassin swam into the hole on the stone pillar and found that there were quite a few wrecks inside. Even in the sea, they were still completely intact, unlike the broken wrecks seen before.

Lin has seen this kind of stone pillars before. This is obviously a lair built by these creatures. Now she should be able to figure out what happened between them, but the calculation alone is very inaccurate. If you can know the details better.

At this moment, Lin found an interesting method in those two brain drillers.

In the big brain, those sleeping areas are in a sleeping state because of a toxin. If Lin removes this toxin, it may wake up some areas of the brain.

Before that, it is necessary to figure out their left and right. The current brain should be in a state of no consciousness. Lin does not want it to wake up completely. Lin found that one of the areas has a structure similar to other biological memory areas, and some different biological memories The locations of the memory areas are also different, but most of them are relatively scattered, but this brain has concentrated the memory areas into one, and the information stored in it seems to be very easy to read, and the stored substances are much more obvious than that of ordinary living things .

If you use a brain reader to read this location, you should be able to know a lot of things. Although Lin doesn't know whether the brain reader can completely read it, this brain is definitely easier to read than ordinary creatures.

Just do what you think, Lin asked the assassins outside to shoot multiple sticky eggs on the crystal, and a large number of drillers emerged from these eggs, and they drilled a larger hole in the crystal, and then The last egg hatched into a small brain reader, which followed the group of drillers into the crystallization and floated to the brain inside.

At this time, the ancient squid was still dancing, and the tiny army between the brains was still at war, while Lin's brain reader pierced the tiny tentacles all over his body into the brain, and the tentacles continued to grow, connecting to the brain that stores memories. area.

At this point, the micro-drillers within begin to secrete a detoxifying fluid that awakens the dormant region.

These liquids must not leak to other places, and must be controlled in one area...

Accompanied by the detoxifying liquid, this area slowly released the state of sleepiness, and the brain reader also received the information it memorized at the same time... (to be continued...)
