4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

Chapter 68 Battlefield

The west coast of the Isle of Fungi.

This piece of sandy beach that is no longer white is filled with a strange smell, the smell of blood, and the smell of decay. Even the air seems to be dyed with a strange color by these smells. Under the blazing sun, this place Everything evaporates slowly.

War is cruel and will always take countless lives. When Lin was exploring the underwater cave, the flames of war did not stop for a moment. The remains of fungal monsters filled the beach, and there were a large number of potholes in the first ten meters of the beach , These are the traces of the explosive bombs, piles of corpses are crowded in these potholes, and some huge biological remains are poured around, exuding a strange smell.

Even if they are an overwhelming plague in life, they are still food for scavengers in death.

There are more corpses piled up on the beach behind, most of them are either full of spikes, or half of their bodies have been blown off, their blood has already seeped into the sand, staining the entire beach. A strange color has been applied.

Some of the fungus monsters that could run the farthest were only about one meter away from the Styx Cannon. They passed through the traps and escaped countless shellings, but in the end they were unable to climb the sand dunes where the Styx Cannon was located and fell to the ground. on the beach.

The crazy attack of the fungus monsters piled up their corpses. In fact, the corpses seen now are relatively few, and there are still countless numbers that have been swallowed by the phages.

The corpses of fungi monsters can be said to cover the entire beach, and the sea is no exception. The ocean has been completely discolored by their blood, and countless wreckages are floating on the water. These wreckages have no ability to infect. The fungus dies completely under the immersion of seawater, so it attracts a large number of fish and various plankton, which is a feast for them.

At the same time, Lin also started to clean up the dead bodies on the beach.

Under the frantic attack of the fungus monsters before, the phages even had too many opponents. The blood and remains of these corpses could not be swallowed quickly, causing mycelium to explode, and the mycelia even counterattacked the phages under the gravel. They relied on the blood of the fungus monsters to grow, and the growth rate was many times faster than normal, even It was once attacked by mycelium to a very deep place, but now the phages have begun to slowly swallow it back. And the blood outside was slowly drying up due to the scorching sun, and it was difficult for the fungus to grow anymore.

The war didn't last very long, but Lin estimates that the number of dead and injured fungi monsters may exceed hundreds of thousands, or even millions, because there are quite a few small fungus monsters among them, and Lin also suffered a lot of losses. The five traps are almost useless now, and the explosive bombs also have countless consumptions, and even hundreds of Styx cannons have been destroyed.

Except for the two that were previously dissolved by the head of the plague,

The rest of the turrets were destroyed by a single creature - the Mutalisk.

There are probably hundreds of flying dragons participating in this war, and their size is generally around ten meters. At the beginning, many of them only knew how to rampage, but later some of them knew how to use tactics.

They know how to siege. Going around to the rear to attack, they will also spray a solution containing a large amount of bacterial dust, etc., and flying dragons generally have a characteristic: their carapace is quite hard, and now their corpses are lying on the beach. Lin needs to have a deeper understanding of this kind of creature Only research...

Now the corpses of the fungus monsters are all over Lin's field of vision, and everything seems extremely quiet. The war... is it over?

In fact, this is not over, the war is just suspended.

There are also some fungus monsters that did not wash up on the beach. They... retreated, and Lin found that they seemed to have suddenly become a little smarter, and the part behind them did not continue to charge madly, but retreated to the ocean.

Their current position is just above the group of plague heads moving on the bottom of the sea.

This group of plague leaders never stopped, even after Lin cut off the two brains, but they seemed to speed up after that...

why? It may have a lot to do with those two brains.

Lin did not reach any communication with them. It would be better to say that there was no chance of communication at all, and after they were disconnected, they died there quickly.

Why is this so? Lynn found that they have reached a very strange relationship with each other, and the battle between the two brains may have lasted for hundreds of years or more. During the course of their battle, their body shape also changed a lot.

For example, the small brain relies heavily on the nutrients obtained from the big brain, and even oxygen is obtained from the water passing from it. If the big brain is lost, it will die soon.

The big brain is even simpler. It has a heart-like structure in its body, which is not only used for blood transfusion, but also can continuously send troops to the opponent. Even if it is disconnected, it will continue to send troops. Under normal circumstances, the troops sent by it will be eliminated by the cerebellum, but the water will flow back after the cerebellum has been circled, but no water will come back after disconnection, and it will eventually lead to excessive loss of water and death...

Of course, the cerebellum also relies on this water to obtain oxygen and other necessities of life.

How should I put it, this relationship is really weird. Although they have been fighting all the time, they have formed a wonderful symbiotic relationship. The two sides have become in a state where they cannot survive without fighting. One of the parties wins, and the winning party will die soon.

If a small victory wins, it will soon be without nutrients and oxygen, and if a big victory, it will continue to produce troops, and finally these troops will pile up in the body because they have nowhere to go and continue to squeeze other organs The space becomes bigger and bigger...it may be turned into art.

Generally speaking, small brains are more dependent, but big ones can't think and are crazy, so they are more likely to die.

Lin originally thought that he could save the little one, but Lin couldn't quickly produce water containing oxygen and other nutrients that the big brain sent to it. Even if oxygen was provided, it would still die.

But even so, Lin also used the method of delivering nutrients to keep the small brain alive for a while, but Lin found that it couldn't think at all. After the big brain died, it only had a feeling called "confusion" .

It doesn't know what to do next, it seems to have lost the purpose of life, even though it seemed smart when it attacked the big brain, it seems to be a creature without thoughts now...

It didn't respond to any signals sent to it, so Lin simply let it die, since it wouldn't survive anyway.

However, after these two brains died, Lin discovered the real problem...

The plague army didn't stop, they were still moving, and they were smarter than before. In the beginning, they would only attack wildly, and occasionally they could show intelligence, but now they know how to retreat first.

Back then, Lin might have reversed the relationship between the brain and the plague fungus. During the long war with another brain, the brain had completely lost its ability to think, and had become no different from a real lunatic.

So the signals it sends don't give intelligence to the plague's army, but drive them mad, only showing intelligence occasionally when they don't receive the brain's signal.

In places farther away from the Five Plague Islands, such as those islands near the mainland, the signals from the brain may not be transmitted there, so the fungi there behaved relatively normally. When Lin cleared the fungi on those islands, they did not behave crazy .

That's it... It should have been noticed earlier, when it seems that the brain has a bad influence, after the brain is dead, they can be said to have ended the crazy influence of the brain on them.

But what is this group of fungi now commanding them by? Are those fungal monsters with higher intelligence? Or a fungal lord? Or do they act on their own?

There is no way to know this, but at least they are acting smarter than before.

It seems very interesting, but the remaining fungus monsters are estimated to be only about 5%. After they end the influence of the brain, will they still attack Lin? Or would you want to run away?

But the head of the plague is still coming here. No matter what, this plague must be destroyed.

Lin began to prepare a troop for sneak attacks under the sea, ready to attack the last group of troops. These fungus monsters are still afraid of sea water. It seems that the 'curse' will not fade away because of brain death.

Lin first dispatched a unit of "sweepers" to cooperate with the phages to remove the corpses on the beach and the nearby sea. They crawled out of the island in large numbers. This is a large army with a body length of about five meters. The teeth in the middle have structures for grinding meat such as serrations, which are very suitable for grinding these things.

Because too many bombs were consumed in this war, Lin needs to replenish nutrients quickly. In fact, the resources left on the island are already relatively difficult to deal with the plague fungus, so they must be killed in the sea.

Lin didn't need to dispatch other troops, but used Bechymos, who had been staying on the island, to deal with this group of plague leaders. Bechymos had not participated in the previous war, so there was no consumption at all, although the plague leader's It's a lot, but Lynn thinks that only Behemoth is enough.

The huge figure of Bechymos slowly flew to the beach full of corpses...

It is finally coming to an end, this war, the plague will be completely wiped out!

Looking at the ocean in the distance, Bechymos suddenly began to speed up and rush over!

'Goo...' Suddenly, a strange noise made Bechymos stop, and Lin saw a large number of bubbles appearing on the water surface for some reason, and these bubbles were so large that they even squeezed away the floating corpses around.
