Chapter 19 The Barren World

The new group, called 'Explorer', is half the size of the Guardian, it has an oval body covered with a thin layer of armor, many small holes in the carapace for oxygen inhalation, two eyeballs on the head and The tentacles of the lantern for lighting have a set of small heart and blood vessels in the body.

Around the body, there are a total of eight arthropod legs covered with carapace. Lin added joint parts similar to those of the round shield worm to these arthropods, plus the muscles in the arthropods, so that they can move quickly.

The purpose of 'Explorers' is not to hunt or kill enemies, but to explore the world beyond the water!

Lin likes to explore unknown areas very much. It has always had this idea since she accidentally reached the water surface last time, and after successfully creating a carapace, this idea can finally be realized.

Lin did not come here during the day, but chose the safer night. Although there is a carapace, Lin will not know whether it can withstand ultraviolet rays without water.

The explorer set off, and it quickly climbed uphill. Most of the environment here is composed of gravel, which is very easy for the explorer to walk.

The water is still high in the dark, so it is now invisible. But the lanterns that Lin made for the explorers were a little different. Lin made the light balls no longer glow all over the body, but concentrated the light-emitting parts to one side and aligned them in one direction to form a lantern, and then covered both sides of the lantern with shells. In this way, the light they emit can reach farther, and it can see the position of the water surface as long as the tentacles of the lantern are lifted.

As the explorer moved up the slope, the position of the water surface was getting lower and lower, and the surrounding environment had changed from the original gravel to small yellow-brown sand. It was the first time that Lin had seen sand of this color. grain.

The explorer soon approached - the junction of the water and the ground.

As long as she walks there, Lin can leave the water and step into the realm of gas.

There is a feeling called 'excitement'.

It seems that getting out of the water is such a big deal, that's why it feels that way.

Lin herself doesn't feel that way. It thinks it's just exploring a new area. Lin herself doesn't plan to go there, just to satisfy her 'curiosity', but why do you feel this way? Lynn doesn't know.

Anyway, just keep doing it.

The explorer's body slowly surfaced with its pace, and Lin felt the sense of nothingness belonging to the realm of air. The brilliance of the stars shone in this space, illuminating the road ahead for Lin.

This new world, which Lin calls 'land', does not require lanterns, the light of the stars already allows it to see everything clearly.

The 'land' is a barren place, covered in tawny debris and sand, with nothing but the occasional boulder standing in it.

Colin didn't stop.

The explorer took a step again, and its limbs also left the water with the body and set foot on a new world.

Then, it fell.

After leaving the water, the gravitational force seemed to increase a lot in an instant, and it instantly dragged Lin's explorer to the ground, making it unable to move.

The armor Lin made was just to deal with this, but it seemed that the muscles still needed some coordination.

Thinking about it, it quickly repaired the muscles inside the arthropods, allowing the cells to divide and strengthen quickly, until it was able to support the body on the land with huge gravity.

Under the quick repairs of the cells, the explorer quickly stood up again, and it would not fall again this time.

The explorer moved the limbs around his body and walked towards this barren world...

On land, cold air currents replace water currents, and their frequency is faster than water currents. They blow up the sand on the ground and hit the outer shell of the explorers. Lin has a word to describe them - 'wind'.

Lin found that water is in this world,

Just like the gas in the water, it becomes a small round particle. As long as the wind blows, it can take away countless water droplets. Under the endless blowing of the wind, the original wet shell of the explorer, It soon becomes as dry as the grains of sand under its feet.

Stepping into the new world, Lin gained a lot of new words, but she began to feel...

Very boring.

The explorer walked at a slower speed on the land, but in its field of vision, there were endless yellow sand, or occasionally some huge rocks.

Apart from that, there is nothing, no multicellular organisms, and no single-celled organisms, only the yellow sand flying in the sky and the howling cold wind. Although the starry sky in the sky is so beautiful, the earth is so barren and empty.

Lin's original curiosity and excitement about the land have almost disappeared, and she is not in the mood to pay attention to those new words that seem to be very interesting, just silently let the explorer go on step by step.

There are no creatures here, which means there is no food. Lin even discovered a new problem. After the wind dried the water in the explorer's shell, Lin could feel that the water in the explorer's body began to slowly drain.

They flowed out from some holes or small cracks in the shell, and then turned into countless small water droplets by the blowing air, and disappeared without a trace.

Lynn has always lived in water, and it has never felt what it is like to lose water.

But it knows now, that means death.

Cells that lose water die instantly, and cracks in the carapace must be repaired.

Under the explorer's carapace are a large number of gland cells, which can quickly secrete chitin to repair various cracks. The carapace that Lin originally made was not so comprehensive, but now it seems to be completely covered.

Soon Lin filled all the cracks, leaving only two small holes for ventilation.

Lin knew why there were no other creatures, because they couldn't live without water.

And in this barren world, there is nothing to attract other creatures at all.

But Lin didn't give up, and the explorer kept going deeper into the land.

If I look back now, I can no longer see the sea, but the surrounding scenery is still the same, except that the sand is the stone, which reminds Lin of his childhood.

At that time it seemed to have had a similar feeling, that is, 'except water is water'.

The fat cells stored in the explorer's body can keep it going for a long time, but Lin has begun to doubt the meaning of the journey.

How boring.

In the same environment, Lin turned her attention to the top, and she found that the starry sky in the sky would slowly change, those light spots would sometimes move slowly, and occasionally there would even be a high-speed light across the sky, but most of the light Points generally remain stationary.

After landing on land, Lin realized that the stars were quite far away from her. Perhaps, she had to swim in the air like water to get close to them.

That's... so difficult.

At this time, a somewhat different object appeared in front of the explorer.

dune.

Sand dunes are often seen on the beach in the water, and Lin usually doesn't pay much attention to them, but the sand dunes on land should provide Lin with more vision.

The explorer climbed up and looked into the distance at the top of the dune.

Sure enough, until the end of the field of vision, there was still a cloud of dust.

This place really doesn't make any sense at all.

Lin didn't want to go anymore, it made the explorer lie on the dune and looked up at the starry sky above.

Lin found that all the light spots in the starry sky moved. As the starry sky continued to change, the light of the surrounding environment also changed.

Slowly, the surroundings began to brighten, and the starry sky in the sky slowly disappeared.

They are all overshadowed by the light of 'day'.

Day has come.

When the surroundings were completely shrouded in the light of day, Lin felt that the temperature in the air had risen significantly, and the extremely strong ultraviolet rays rushed in from the joints of the explorer's limbs and the pores of his body, destroying them at a very fast speed. cells in its body.

As the light of the day becomes brighter, its ultraviolet rays can even penetrate directly through the outer shell of the explorer, and the cells inside are rapidly dying.

The next moment, the explorer died, and Lin's land journey ended here.

Let's go back……

The aircraft carrier in the shoal slowly turned around and swam into the deep sea.

What a... a meaningless journey.
