Chapter 107 The Voice of Lost
'Boom! There was another burst of explosions, and the nearly two-meter-long crystal cones on the tortoise's back shot out towards Leviathan. The cone of crystal inserted directly into the very center of a tree behind Leviathan.
The tree was almost punctured, but there was no response. Could it be that the branches were screaming?
While Lin was thinking, the crystal cone tortoise was also moving at this time, and it was slowly turning its body, because only two crystal cones on its carapace can be fired forward, and if you want to shoot other crystal cones, you must turn around.
But when it turned around, its huge body bumped into the tree it had bitten, and the not-so-thick trunk was crooked to the side under the huge force of the tortoise, and its roots were broken one by one. Then, the whole tree fell to the ground with a loud bang, its crystalline bark was smashed together with the branches.
"what--!!!"
At this moment, a howling sound instantly resounded throughout the crystallized woodland! This kind of sound was extremely sharp, and it could cause great stimulation to Leviathan's auditory tentacles. The tortoise seemed to be unable to bear the sound, it stopped turning its body, and roared at the fallen tree.
The screaming tree and the tortoise seemed to be roaring at each other. The tortoise tried to overwhelm the tree with its voice, but the screaming became louder and louder. It seemed that the tortoise failed because it couldn't stand the stimulation of its eardrums When it got down, it fled here 'quickly' shaking its head.
Leviathan fired a small sticky bullet at the tortoise as a marker, and floated next to the fallen tree.
This sound is really quite 'thorny', it has already caused a lot of damage to Leviathan's auditory tentacles, after a few hundred seconds, it finally stopped, this sound does not seem to come from the tree of. It's... underground.
At the place where the tree broke, Lin found some silk threads, which were connected to the trunk and then extended to those branches...
Lin thinks the branches are some kind of trigger structure that screams when touched.
Leviathan held out his tentacles. Digging the root system of the tree, Lin found that the root system of the tree was not completely covered by crystals, and seemed to be very long, but the structure was relatively fragile, so the tortoise could easily break the tree just now.
After digging for a while, Lynn dug out a strangely shaped... thing. All the threads are connected to this thing, it is like an ammonite shell, the outer layer is covered by crystals, Leviathan stretched his tentacles into the shell to explore, and at the same time Lin also saw that there seemed to be some flowing liquid inside the shell, Then some miniature arms were injected into it.
After doing some research. Lynn discovered... this thing,
is an organ.
Its function is mainly... to make sound, the scream just now was made by it, there is a structure like a vocal sac inside, which can vibrate continuously to make sound, as if the very 'cold' feeling has nothing to do with it look.
Why does this tree have this structure? Is it for defense? It doesn't seem like it, it made very little noise when it was bitten by a tortoise. It only makes a loud noise when it is pushed down, which is useless. This thing is at the root under the trunk, so Lin didn't find this strange structure before...
Regardless of its usefulness, the main thing is that Lin also discovered that the biggest feature of this thing is that it can 'record' sound. After it receives a sound, it will play it out exactly as it was originally, and it may be retained for a long time. multiple voices...
Those silk threads before are indeed receptors, if the silk threads are stimulated. It will be transmitted to this organ immediately, and it will release these sounds, because the receptors are only at the end of the silk thread, so only the branch will make the sound when it is injured. plant. In this case, it may be possible to...
Leviathan imitated the signal of the silk thread with the discharge tentacles, and lightly shocked this organ.
"Ah——!!!" The previous scream sounded suddenly, and Lin didn't even know what creature it was calling, but it should be able to be replaced with another voice.
Lin charged again a few times, and sure enough, the tree made another sound...
"Ga!" "Wow!" "Woo!" Lin has heard the calls of creatures, but most of them don't recognize them. This organ has the ability to distinguish sounds. It can only record the calls of creatures, not the sound of footsteps or wind.
Among the cries of these creatures, Lin heard one: "Help...".
This is the vocabulary of brain worms. Lin once taught Susumi. Sure enough, Susumi came here, and it was still asking for help?
It's a pity that I don't know how long ago this sound was. Leviathan turned on the phone a few more times and found that there are about a dozen sounds from this thing, and only one of them is Susumi's.
Perhaps other trees also recorded the sound? Thinking about it, Leviathan put down this organ and flew to other nearby trees. Hearing their voices, he didn’t need to push them down. He only needed to stretch his tentacles into the mud, drill into the roots of the trees, and find this organ to give it an electric shock.
The tree also found Susumi's voice, the same as the previous one, which was "Help."
Then Lin continued to try a lot of trees. When she was at a distance, Lin heard different voices of Susumi, such as: "Hungry, food" "Cold..." "Lin..." "Lost..." "Water..." and so on.
The farther the distance is, the weaker Susumi's voice becomes, but it seems that it has not suffered any attack. The sound recorded by the deep tree is less and less, and finally only Susumi's voice is left .
Leviathan traced a distance of one kilometer in the crystalline forest, and felt that Susumi was moving very slowly. Lin guessed that it was spinning in one place for many days and nights. Lin had taught it. In this case, It was supposed to stop and wait for help, and it didn't seem to do that, it ran around, but instead of going back out of the jungle, it went deeper and deeper.
In the end, Susumi became weaker and weaker. From the recorded voice, he could feel that death was approaching him. There was no water or food here. How long could the emerald dragon live?
Leviathan has traveled almost two kilometers, the sound heard from the trees has almost disappeared, and it may finally be...
"Lin..."
Suddenly, Lin heard a small voice.
This sound did not come from the tree, but came from nearby! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point (m) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users, please go to m to read.)
