Chapter 84 Watching the Stars

"Hula la!"

Under the brilliant starlight, Tucker and his tribe are dancing a strange dance around a wonderful statue...

Lin can think of their behavior as a kind of... send off before the trip, but Lin still has to teach them something.

Not only are their drawing skills getting better and better, Tucker also knows how to use some hard stones to scratch objects and perform a work called 'carving'. Part of this technique is taught by Lin, and they quickly Learned, and the things produced have become more and more like statues of Inca swarms.

Tucker recently sculpted a particular statue with several clan members, mostly out of wood, that looked like a pterosaur with a furry ball on its back.

Because the hair of pompoms is very difficult to carve, they use a kind of grass that looks like fluff to insert on the top of the ball as fluff.

This statue is placed next to the dragon roost where the colony lives. After they are built, they always pile some meat, and the small balls that the dragon roost grows for them to eat under this statue. They are not used for For storage, the general skeletal dragons put food on the tree, and these foods are specially prepared for Lin's pompoms.

If any large prey is caught, Tucker will dance around the statue with the tribe to celebrate, just like now...

"Woooooh!" Tucker cheered at the pompoms in the sky with a piece of meat held high, and all the other ethnic groups also yelled together!

They just always like to do these things, after the creature's intelligence becomes higher. If there is no pressure, I like to find various things to do. Lin found that most creatures are like this, they like to think about all kinds of things.

Recently, because the skeletal dragons have been learning the language of the brain worms, their pronunciation has become more and more fluent.

During the cheering process of the ethnic group, Lin's pompom floated above the statue, slowly rose to the sky, and flew into the sky full of stars.

The pom-poms flew around the sky a few times and told them, "Record."

"Record!" Tucker yelled imitating the pompom's voice, and several skeletal dragons brought some flat stones. Then they start carving on it.

Tucker and other skeletal dragons carved the graphics of the starry sky on the tablet. Lin wanted them to realize that the starry sky will slowly change at various times, but if all changes are recorded, it will remain unchanged in general Yes, using the changes in the starry sky, you can remember the route without getting lost,

This way they can hunt far away.

The fact that the skeletal dragon group always moved around was also related to the fact that they could not find their way back when they ran too far. They could only rely on memory to obtain an approximate location. So they find new places to settle when they travel too far in the past.

They also drew stars before, but that was just drawing casually. What Lin taught them was to record the changes in the starry sky.

Because of the good language learning, this group of skeleton dragons can also communicate with Lin in more complicated ways.

During the communication process, Lin found that they didn't know much about 'Yue', and it is estimated that Yue would not affect here. In addition, they don't seem to know that it's snowing. Sure enough, it won't snow here?

This feeling is also good. Although Yue is more interesting, it will also cause a lot of troublesome problems... Snow will make it even more troublesome. Lin will be in a very boring state throughout the winter.

Tucker They quickly recorded the stars. Next, Lin told them to record it every once in a while. Record all the changes, and all the changes can be recorded in about a few days and nights.

Although Lin taught them this way, Lin herself seldom recognizes the way by observing the direction of the starry sky, other creatures prefer to observe the sun instead of the starry sky, and some creatures like to place small magnets in their bodies to recognize the way.

But having stars is enough, for Skeletal Dragon...

After recording, the pom-pom slowly floated down and landed on the statue they made. Because the 'pom-pom' sculpted by Tucker was bigger than Lynn's, it just landed on it.

Tucker's skill in drawing the starry sky is very good, and the other skeletal dragons seem to be a little worse, but they just need to know what they are drawing.

Suddenly, a dazzling light flashed across the sky, which lasted less than a second and then dissipated in an instant. Tucker immediately yelled and drew this light on it.

That kind of light is called a 'shooting star', and Lin can often see it because she has many 'eyes', but what exactly is it? A moving star? Those huge fireballs that I saw falling from the sky before may be this kind of stars, and it may not be...

By the way, this kind of puzzle must be solved, to solve the mystery of the starry sky! What the hell are stars? Sun and Yuelin can basically confirm that it is a giant glowing sphere very close to this world, but what are stars? A sphere far away?

Lin has thought about this question more than once, and Lin has never stopped observing the starry sky. Although these wonderful things cannot be touched, they are always shining in the sky, providing rare light for the dark night.

There are also many creatures that respond to shifts in starlight, but none seem to attempt to approach them.

Maybe? It's just that Lin didn't discover it. There are too many wonderful creatures in the world.

Lin thought about getting close to them, but because no matter what kind of flying creature reaches a certain height, it will be difficult to continue to rise, mainly related to some problems such as the thinning of the air.

Lin's current units all use floating air or wings, plus jet flight, all rely on air. If you want to fly higher, you must rely on other power to fly...

What motivation can you rely on? Exploding explosives in succession? Or something else?

Although there seem to be many choices, they feel unreliable, and the impact must be quite large.

In short, the distance between the ground and the starry sky is like a layer of barriers, making it impossible for flying objects to approach the starry sky. But recently, because Lin was making the Styx Cannon, Lin discovered some interesting things.

Lin used to shoot most of the bombs and then fly by herself. Now Lin prefers to use the pressure hammer and explosives to eject them. When using the pressure hammer and explosives to launch the bombs rapidly, Lin found that the speed of the bombs It can reach a very powerful level, even much faster than the sound...

But even so, it can't penetrate the plague dragon's carapace, although this is not the point.

The point is that Lin thinks that if a thing has a high speed, it may be able to rush through obstacles in the sky, but how much speed does it need? Lin did some calculations, and it might take several kilometers per second.

This is only judged based on the information obtained from the initial contact with the barrier. There should be more things to consider and more complicated calculations. Now calculations are no problem for Lin, because the number of cells is almost endless, but now Lin can't reach this speed yet, she needs a bigger boost...

There are many ways to improve, and it needs to be tested slowly, but at least there is a direction for research... It feels like going to land at that time, but this is much more difficult than going from sea to land.

At the same time, Lin also found that although the faster the speed, the greater the attack power, there are still some very powerful carapaces that can block this attack, so Lin has to study more powerful chitin at the same time.

The attack power and defense power should be equal. If the attack power is too strong, it may make things very difficult to control.

Lin has now discovered more than one kind of substance that can be combined into explosives, and there are many other types with different powers. Lin has also discovered that some creatures will combine liquids for explosive reactions to attack or defend. This is quite interesting and requires More research will do.

Now the sky is slowly becoming brighter, and the skeletal dragons finally finished drawing these stars before the night faded away. Because they want to record the changes of stars in different days and nights, they have to give each day and night a name.

At this time, Lin found the word 'week' in her thoughts.

There are seven days and nights on Monday. Each day and night has a different name. It can be said to be "Qiyao", which is gold, wood, water, fire, earth, sun, moon, and another name is one, two, three, four, five, and six days. It feels very complicated. , why do you call it that? Is there any particular reason for it?

Lin didn't see the relevant explanation in her mind...

Seven days and nights record the periodic changes of some things, but the unit in Lin’s mind that records periodic changes is usually not very accurate, so this is used temporarily. If there are more than seven days and nights around the starry sky, it will be called another name.

During the daytime, the paintings of the skeletal dragons have ended, and Tucker is leading his group to prepare for hunting. They now like to tie sharp stones to wooden sticks with vines to form a kind called It is a combination of 'spear', which is much stronger than the previous wooden thorns.

Because the skeletal dragons are all staying on the trees now, the habitats of the dragons have gradually changed according to their living habits. They grow thicker trunks to bear the weight of the skeletal dragons, and sometimes coil the trunks together. Make a small platform in the air.

The benefits of symbiosis have been more and more manifested, and it's almost time for Lin to set off.

The pompom floated into the air and flew to the top of a tree. Looking at the endless jungle, Lin was ready to fly to any place.

"Gah!" Suddenly, Tucker's cry came from below, and Lin found that Tucker climbed to the top of the tree from below.

Tucker knew that Lin was going to leave, and his group knew it. Lin had told them not to have any strange reactions, so they still acted as usual at this time.

But Tucker still crawled over, and Lin found that it was holding an oval object in its hand. (to be continued...)
