Chapter 167 Preparation
"Pi——just inserted and absurd, that's almost what it means." After listening to the electric current, the brain worm said to Lin.
This is a vast ocean. Under the bright sunshine, three huge wooden boats are slowly advancing on the water. Over the years, the brainworm has finally fulfilled his wish - "Rolling in the sea like a wave, like Drifting in the ocean like a jellyfish."...that's what it said.
In short, the brain worms have handed over the troops of the twin islands to the management of the newly born brain worm 'Amon'. Lin thinks that the character of this 'Amon' is somewhat similar to that of Muktu in the northern continent. After that, the brainworm built three large ships with a length of more than 60 meters, and took part of the troops to sea.
However, it is not sailing fast, and it has been turning around recently, not far from the Twin Islands. The brain worm doesn't know how to identify the direction on the sea, or it doesn't want to at all, it just wants to Just turn around.
The same is true now, but now, Lin has found it. In the cabin of this ship, the brain worm is listening to the "sound of soul" released by Lin, which is imitated by the displayer communicating with the brain worm. Unleash some waves found in the Emerald Dragon Graveyard...
"Sound, electricity, full of impurities, irritability, incomprehensible." Brainworm said: "Although it is weird, it has a sense of sadness."
Lin questioned: "Sense of sadness? What is that?"
"It's hard to explain. It's like the scream of a creature before it dies." Brainworm said: "But after the creature dies, it's difficult to retain information, let alone retain thoughts."
I see. Brainworm thinks so. The brains of division-of-labor species never worship anything, so there will be no ideas of 'soul'.
"Soul, an interesting word." The brainworm said: "Those green creatures think that the soul is the core of the creature's thinking? After death, the thoughts will continue to be maintained? The imagination is rich and worthy of reference, the soul..."
The brain worm seems to like the look of this word, but since the brain worm can't interpret the information.
Perhaps there is no soul at all? Lin's current definition of it is 'electrical signal for storing information', which is difficult to study, or can only be continued in other ways.
"Well, how is it?" While talking, the brain worm suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Did it succeed?"
What the head worm asked was about the situation of the flying dragon. Two years ago, the flying dragon left the head worm because it had to go back to its breeding place to reproduce. This is indeed the case for the reproduction of the flying dragon. If there are opposite sexes . They will reproduce sexually, but if they don't. They reproduce parthenogenetically.
The breeding place of the flying dragon is in the volcano of the dinosaur continent. Now, the once young flying dragon has laid twelve eggs and successfully hatched.
"Successful, twelve children were born."
"That stupid creature gave birth to so many babies without telling me. It ran away suddenly, thinking it rolled into the water and died." Although the headworm said so, when it heard that the little flying dragon had successfully given birth to offspring, It's still in a happier mood.
It is true that the flying dragon left the head worm suddenly, but when it left, it was also quite sad. It had already reached a very special relationship with the head worm.
The flying dragon now needs to take care of its cubs, maybe when the cubs don't need to be taken care of, it will come back to look for the head worms.
It's an interesting relationship...but I don't know if it can find the brain worms floating around in the sea?
Because the brainworm is dangling in the sea, the army has no chance to develop at all. It should find an island quickly, because it may encounter another creature floating in the sea again.
Monte II.
After the incident with Monte II, Lin found it an island far away from Twin Islands and put it on it, but Monte II was not at ease, and then it flew away from the island by itself and found another one. The small island began to reproduce, but when it bred a relatively small number of troops, it discovered that the island was 'alive', it was an island formed by the gathering of a large number of arthropods that Lin had seen before.
After Monte II found out, it had no choice but to leave, and then it changed several islands, and finally it found a better island, which was very large and rich in creatures. This time, Monte II seemed to understand, and it began to Not to grow the population like crazy, but to do it slowly.
Although it is still difficult to not squeeze the local environment like the brainworm, it is at least trying to do it.
After that incident, Lin could feel that Monte II's attitude towards Lin had obviously changed. In short, it was less hostile, perhaps because it knew that it was useless, or because Lin saved it.
If a creature is helped by another creature, it will have a great impression on the creature that helped it. This phenomenon is common among all kinds of creatures. Of course, the person being helped must have sufficient intelligence It is enough to understand that you have been helped, but the intelligence of an average shark is enough.
Speaking of which, Lin also kept observing the group of ancient abyss squids after that. They haven't changed much in the past few years. Occasionally, they still pick up some creatures to raise back. So far, I haven't figured out the whole reason, but Lin is in some nearby places. The bottom of the ocean sees more Brain Builders.
Those creatures can live not only on land, but also in the sea, and they have many split brains, although those split brains have no apparent effect on the surrounding creatures.
And different from the land, because there are many split-brain creatures in the sea that will prey on them, the number has not increased dramatically.
Lin killed all the brain monsters, but Lin suspects that something is producing brain monsters, just like they produce split brains... After all, brain monsters themselves cannot reproduce, and Lin also found some ocean monsters like sharks. Creatures will prey on them, so they shouldn't be in large numbers in the sea.
This aspect must be carefully studied... As for the brain worm and Monte II, they have completely changed from land to sea creatures, and they will meet again sooner or later, and then continue their eternal war...
At this time, Lin turned her attention back to the City of the Emerald Dragon again. The spy was in the palace at this time, but...he didn't have any communication with Susumi.
The second time Lin saw Susumi in the palace, Susumi was staring at the map closely, her thoughts were constantly changing, and she seemed to be thinking about many things...
Or leave it alone for now.
It is not important to communicate with Susumi now, because it will face a war. War is quite troublesome for the emerald dragon. Susumi not only needs to consider how to fight, but also needs to consider a so-called 'morale' Questions, such as whether the troops are willing to fight, and what to do in the city? Will some emerald dragons who oppose Susumi take advantage of this opportunity?
Not only does it have to deal with its opponents, but it also has to think of ways to secure its own kind. Susumi's attempt to obtain Doluke may be for the sake of gaining more prestige for himself. It can make the army fight crazily, just as simple as ordinary creatures directing their hands and feet...
Because Susumi considered various things, he should have reproduced at his age, but he didn't seem to have such an idea. If Susumi had offspring, his offspring should also be able to inherit its strength.
If Susumi wins, it won't be too late for Lin to talk to it. If it loses, there is no way to talk to it.
Lin looked at Susumi's map. The last meteorite explosion caused all kinds of things on the map to sway. It took a lot of effort to arrange them. Keep an eye on the southern edge of the map...
There, there is a forest of crystallization...
There is a strange creature called standing scorpion. The standing scorpion originally lived underground. Because of the death of the brain, they fell into madness. They fought with each other, plundered each other, and fought for themselves.
Lin found that the current situation of the Emerald Dragon is actually very similar to the group of crazy standing scorpions found before. If Susumi and the guards who manage the city all leave now, it is estimated that the city of the Emerald Dragon will also fall into the same situation as the crazy standing scorpion. In the same situation as the scorpion.
Emerald Dragon has not become like that now entirely because of the relationship with the manager.
But the crazy standing scorpions didn't have any managers. After Lin escaped with some standing scorpions that time, it didn't take long for them to become fewer and fewer due to cannibalism, and finally completely extinct.
But the surviving standing scorpions, because of Lin's teachings, understand the importance of the leader, they will also know how to compete for the leader, and survive like other individual creatures...
At the beginning, Lin thought that they would also develop like emerald dragons or skeletal dragons, but that's not the case...
The standing scorpions did live like that at the beginning. After a while, they would compete for the leader, and then hunt, build houses, and make weapons under the leadership of the leader...
But with the passage of time, their personalities slowly began to change, and they showed some strange actions. At first, the standing scorpions gradually stopped competing for the leader, and the leader was always a standing scorpion. They gather in large numbers in houses and only go out when hunting. The behavior seems to be a division of labor species, but they still often communicate with each other like individual creatures...but their actions are quite united. There will be no disputes between scorpions, or things like assigning work...
Lin felt that this group of standing scorpions seemed to be forming a... new state of life. (To be continued..)
