Chapter 24 Lava and Madness
The huge dim light swayed in the darkness, and Lin's detector 'warhead', slowly crawling, approached this strange light source.
But when the warhead approached the target, the light suddenly disappeared.
what happened?
The light emitted by the warhead itself is not bright enough, it can only illuminate a small area, and it is impossible to see the surrounding situation.
Maybe a jellyfish or something?
When Lin thought so, that light lit up again in the distance, but this time it was a different kind of light, scarlet, and much brighter.
Lin felt that the temperature of the surrounding water had obviously increased, and it let the warhead go to a new light. When it approached the target, it saw a strange scene.
The dark sticky stuff covered the large area in front, and they exuded a hot feeling. In the sticky stuff, one or two cracks were occasionally seen, and scarlet rays of light lit up from the cracks, although the cracks were not. It's big, but it's light enough to illuminate its surroundings.
Is that... lava?
But it's not the same as what I've seen before. The lava here seems to be fixed, it turns gray, and it won't move, but it still emits extremely high temperature.
Those cracks that emit red light may have unsolidified lava inside...
Many single-celled organisms that operate on solidified lava seem not to be afraid but to enjoy the heat.
Lin didn't let the warhead step on the lava, it didn't think the warhead could withstand this temperature.
Lin was a little hesitant, she wanted to continue to look here, and she also wanted to bypass these lava and explore deeper trenches.
Suddenly, Lin felt the bullet's field of vision vibrated, and at the same time felt a pulling force pulling the bullet back. Before it could see what was going on, the bullet's body was crushed by a huge pressure.
This is the feeling of being bitten by something, and something is attacking the warhead from behind.
It's a bit of a pity, but that's the end of the trip to the trench...?
Lin would not think so!
The Leviathan floated to the center of the trench, right where the warhead died.
Leviathan turned his body over and opened the troop port, and a large number of warheads were ejected at the same time, heading into the depths of the trench.
There are hundreds of these warheads, all of which were made by Leviathan just now.
This is one of the characteristics of Leviathan. It has multiple breeding compartments in its body, which can instantly form a large number of multicellular individuals, which is very convenient for attacks or other things.
The warheads quickly sank deep into the trench. Although Lin aimed at the center of the trench, most of them landed near the rock wall.
Lin immediately made them gather in the previous direction, and when the warheads reached the place where they saw the lava, they also found out what creature ate the original warhead.
The creature was bright red and flat, and its entire square body lay on the ground like a... red carpet.
What is a rug?
No matter that much, just call it a 'blanket bug'. Could it be that this creature just ate a warhead?
Lin couldn't see where its mouth was, and there were no tentacles on its body. It couldn't understand how this creature hunted.
Anyway, let's kill it first.
Lin let hundreds of warheads rush up. These warheads are specially made for combat, and the ends of the arthropods are sharp blade-like structures.
The warheads climbed onto the body of the blanket worm and scraped traces on it with the blade of the jointed foot. The cells of the blanket worm suddenly flowed out from the wound, and the blanket worm who felt pain kept squirming, but did not make What an effective struggle, Lin then let the bullet burrow into the wound, destroying the structure inside.
The blanket worm suddenly twisted its body suddenly, swam quickly in the water with its flat body, and headed towards the top of the trench.
Lin told the warheads to stop attacking,
It felt as if the blanket bug was not acting to get rid of the warhead, but something else.
The blanket worm has been swimming wildly upwards, and its speed is quite fast, and it quickly swam out of the deepest dark zone of the trench. It is difficult for Lin to imagine that a creature of this shape can be so fast.
But after leaving the dark belt, the speed of the worms began to slow down, and finally stopped moving completely.
Just when Lin was surprised, the body of the blanket worm suddenly burst open and turned into countless cells and fragments.
Is this... a problem of stress?
Lin understood it almost instantly, because the body shrunk very tightly in the high-pressure environment, and the body that was shrunk upstream to the low-pressure environment would open violently, causing the entire body to explode.
But why does it do this? Why did it leave the high-pressure trench bottom and swim up?
Even being bitten by a bullet is not possible, and pain should be a signal to let life avoid danger signals, not to make life crazy.
Leviathan swam to the explosion of the worm, recovered all the warheads, and then began to study the fragments of the worm.
The bodies of the warheads are filled with water to resist the pressure, but where the pressure is low they can open several small holes in the shell to quickly release the water while sucking in the air bubbles in the water so that they not only don't pop but also float for Levy Tan recycling.
this is……
Lin found a lot of familiar things on the body fragments of the blanket bug—viruses.
It's not an ordinary virus, but the bright red virus in Lin's 'infected' body is exactly the same type.
The bright red virus is widely present in the cells of blanket worms and in various structures and organs of the body, so why do blanket worms appear red? But instead of harming the cell, the virus drove it crazy?
Lin found a lot of viruses on the ganglia that the blanket worm had not exploded, maybe this is what caused it to go crazy...
Lin suddenly noticed now that 'crazy' seems to be a new word, referring to abnormal behavior, right?
But this has never happened to Lin's infected people. Lin made them quiet, and they have always been quiet.
This seems to be worth researching...
Lin can get some other creatures to experiment to see how they will react to the virus, it seems... It's fun.
Is it just for fun? No, it may be a weapon to destroy the opponent. Lin can directly inject the virus into those creatures with ganglia, so that the opponent should lose their combat power completely.
And these viruses don't actually damage cells, so they can be used to defeat opponents without wasting nutrients.
All in all, this is a useful study...
Lin only probed a small area of the entire trench, there should be more interesting things below, but it is difficult to see clearly by relying on small and slow units such as 'warheads' to detect, but Lin does not want to The entire Leviathan was made into a pressure-resistant type, which was too troublesome, and it had to be changed back after leaving the trench.
Just when Lin was distressed, an abnormal vibration suddenly came from the water below, and a huge amount of black material suddenly poured out of the trench, instantly surrounding Leviathan's body.
These black substances contain bizarre ingredients that can damage cells in the body if inhaled.
Lin hurriedly closed all the entrances on Leviathan, and relied on her tentacles to paddle and swim, leaving the area covered by black matter.
Lin looked back and saw that most of the entire trench was bubbling with these black substances.
That's something called 'smoke'.
But the smoke seems to be a gas, but these substances are not gases. Most of them are small debris and some other weird things. They have no effect on Lin's carapace, but can cause fatal damage to the cells on the inner wall of the suction pipe.
The smoke... seems to be related to lava?
