Chapter 152 The Hermit Under the Seabed
Is this mantis shrimp the one that guarded its brain at that time?
Lin looked at the mantis shrimp that surfaced suspiciously, and the mantis shrimp also looked at Behemoth suspiciously. It seemed to realize that it had made a mistake. This was not a boat with a brain bug...
The next moment, the mantis shrimp suddenly turned around and dived into the water, swimming rapidly.
It seems that it is indeed an attack on the brain worm's ship. This can basically be confirmed. There is a reason for it deliberately attacking the brain worm's ship, and that is that it has some special relationship with the brain worm. It is probably...
Thinking about it, Bechymos quickly dived into the water, watching the mantis shrimp swimming deep into the water, Bechymos did not chase after it, but fired a small sticky bomb, which happened to stick to the mantis shrimp. Shrimp tail.
The mantis shrimp quickly swam into the deep sea. Relying on the sticky bomb, Lin determined the location of the mantis shrimp, and released several 'pretender' units to keep up with the mantis shrimp.
After the mantis shrimp reaches the bottom of the sea, it still looks around with its eyes, as if to see if there is anything nearby to track it.
It seems to be very intelligent, and the eyes of the mantis shrimp can see the color-changing arms, so the general camouflage is useless, but the pretender can change the shape of the body, this is a slime that can change quickly Small arms, they can quickly make their body covered with scales, just like real fish, they will not be suspected...
After looking around to make sure there was no danger, the mantis shrimp swam to a large rock and pushed the rock away with its forelimbs.
Under the rock, a hole appeared, and the mantis shrimp burrowed into it. The pretenders quickly followed suit.
Undersea cave? This reminded Lynn of the time when she found the fungal brain. This cave is very dark and winding. After walking with the mantis shrimp for a while, the passage of the cave turned from bottom to top, and finally reached an open space.
This space is not so dark. There are many glowing things nearby, which should be living things. The most important thing is that there is no water here.
This feels like the undersea cave where Lin saw the brain before, but it's too far away from here, it can't be the same place...
Mantis shrimp crawl on the ground much more slowly. The pretenders also changed their shapes one after another and crawled onto the ground.
The ground is gray and damp sand, and some coral-like organisms grow on the ground, emitting a slight fluorescence.
Speaking of which, many of these corals can already leave the water.
But it has not been found in the mainland. This terrestrial coral forest has not been carefully studied where they get their food.
There are also some small arthropods and snails crawling around on the ground. Lin found some red things among them... that is a split brain, and sure enough there are some here too.
Moreover, these brains are alive and crawling on the ground, which is a little different from the ones I have seen before.
The mantis shrimp slowly crawled to the depths of the cave, where there are many puddles of different sizes. Some of the puddles contained fish, while others contained a creature that Lynn had also seen in the brain cave before—an abyssal ancient squid.
These ancient squid lay by puddles or in the water. Lin also saw some red crystals rolling in their tentacles. When the huge mantis shrimp came over, they all dived into the puddle one after another, but some of them were still lying outside the puddle, as if they were not afraid. look.
At this moment, Lin saw that the end of the cave was in front of him. It seemed that the cave was not very big. There was a long stone under the wall at the end, and on the stone lay a very familiar thing...
Monte II.
Lin knows that it is still alive, so it has been staying in this place without water. Monte II itself has a certain ability to live in water, but its troops do not have the ability to live in water, so its troops cannot be seen here.
But what about that mantis shrimp?
The mantis shrimp crawled up to Monte II, who also raised his head, and then they put their mouths together.
Does this look like a mantis shrimp feeding Monte II? If you get closer, Lin can see that the mouth of the mantis shrimp is squeezing some liquid to Monte II. How did they achieve this weird relationship? Some creatures do pick up the cubs of other creatures to raise themselves. Although Monte II looks a bit like the cubs of mantis shrimps, mantis shrimps are solitary creatures, so they should not have this habit...
Moreover, the behavior of the mantis shrimp attacking the brainworm ship should be related to Monte II no matter how you look at it.
After feeding, the mantis shrimp turned around and left, and climbed into a larger puddle nearby. Although it could move on the ground, it was still a sea creature, and its gills could not be dried.
Monte II seemed to be in a daze at this time, lying motionless on the rock, not knowing what he was thinking...
Lin thinks it may have the ability to command the mantis shrimp, but the specifics are still unclear, maybe you should ask it... By the way, use that method to ask, and bring Monte II into the dream world , Lin may be able to use some special methods to make this Monte II 'tell' everything he knows...
However, Lin needs more preparations.
The pretenders are now lying on the ground like a pool of gray slimes. They have no special purpose other than scouting. Lin needs to create a new unit in Behemoth - the dream connector!
Now that you think about it, let's start manufacturing. During the manufacturing process, Lin was also observing the underwater life of Monte II...
It seems to be lying on this rock all day long, moving its body occasionally, not very active, but the ancient abyss squids in the nearby puddles will occasionally crawl over, and they change the color of their bodies and dangle in front of Monte II Back and forth, at this time Monte II will also pose some poses, as if communicating with the ancient abyss squid.
The ancient abyss squid may regard Monte II as an object of worship. It is very interesting to say that the division of labor species has almost no worship of this phenomenon, while the personality species especially likes to worship some wonderful things. I don’t know what it is because of Influenced by...
No matter how many, Behemoth's unit has been created in the dark, and the dream connector looks like a... squid, Lin specially made this unit to look like an ancient squid, hoping to 'get away with it' , the suction cups on its tentacles have many small nerve threads, which can penetrate into the small gaps and connect with the opponent's brain. When it opens its tentacles to hug Monte II's head, it can bring it into the dream. (to be continued...)
