Chapter 29 Light Synthesis and Breeders

Two more~ The next chapter is in ten minutes

………………………………………………………………

Leviathan's journey never stops.

Under the constant replacement of day and night, Lin has witnessed the differences in various environments and creatures. Her knowledge of various things has made her knowledge continue to improve. Several bases have also grown and can operate normally.

But how far has the Leviathan swam?

Lin didn't know that it didn't have accurate words to describe 'distance' and 'length', and it didn't deliberately memorize it, just kept swimming to places it had never been to.

Lin has been researching the control of pigments. Although cells can already make green, they cannot absorb light as nutrients. Green cells must have some other secret, not just green.

Lin carefully observed those green cells for a long time, and even after eating hundreds of millions of them, she slowly understood what was inside. Green is actually just a by-product, a kind of light that is not absorbed and reflected.

Green cells can combine many different substances together. These substances absorb light of other colors, such as red and blue, and then they mix the absorbed light with other things to create small crystals. edible toys.

This behavior also produces by-products of oxygen or something, but they don't seem to absorb oxygen, so they throw the oxygen out.

However, green cells take in oxygen in the absence of light, just like other organisms.

They also don't absorb green light, so bounce it off, which is why they look green.

Although it seems to be simple, the process is very complicated. Lin doesn't know how to mix the various substances, which is much more difficult than getting the shell substances.

Now Lin is just giving cells the ability to reflect green light. In fact, this has absolutely nothing to do with feeding on light. Lin has not even completed the basics.

How are those green cells done? When Lin preyed on them, they couldn't even hide. Although some species produced toxins, their power was relatively weak, and Lin could easily evolve resistance against them.

How can a creature of this level of intelligence be able to accomplish such a complex thing?

Lin didn't know, in fact, when Lin's intelligence is higher, the less she understands what "intelligence" is.

In this case, leave it to the cell, Lin can let a cell eat a green cell, and then give it the idea of ​​'combining light-absorbing substances'.

After the first step is completed, the next step is given, 'compose the absorbed light and other non-food substances into food'.

'Non-Food Substances' Under Lin's observation, it knew that the green cells seemed to use a kind of non-oxygen small bubbles, as well as water.

When air, water and light combine, that edible, small crystal-like substance will be born, but Lin doesn't know what the specific process is, so she leaves it to the cells to handle.

The automatic action of cells can sometimes make a big difference, but in any case, it takes a long time, and Lynn continues its journey first.

Now, Leviathan is approaching the water surface. The water surface of this water area is shaking uneasy, sometimes rolling, sometimes spinning. Lin knows that it is caused by the air. The water column fell from the air field and hit the water surface to form a circle of ripples.

Because it was daytime, Lin could see it very clearly.

Above the water, the sky that was supposed to be extremely dazzling in the daytime is now covered by a layer of gray, and the intensity of the ultraviolet rays is much weaker, so Leviathan can be observed close to the water.

Lin saw the previous phenomenon again. A very bright light flashed in the sky. Although this light was short-lived, the moment it appeared, it was enough to illuminate the entire area and make the air and water tremble together.

Is this 'Lightning'? And 'sky',

It's also a new word.

Wonderful words, Lin can't understand them yet, it just finds this phenomenon interesting, but it's not the only reason that attracts Lin.

Not far ahead, a large swarm of flatworms was swimming close to the water's surface, allowing them to get closer because of the weakened ultraviolet light.

By the way, it seems that they can't be called 'worms'. Lin found a new word to describe these creatures with spines.

'fish'.

That's right, it's better to change the name to flat fish. Although Lin doesn't think it is much different from "flatworm", she likes to use new words.

There are only two kinds of flat fish that Lin has seen so far. One is the one with a serrated round mouth that will attack it, and the other is the one in front of me, which has no attack power at all and only feeds on single cells and the like.

The flatfish congregated on the shaking and restless water, not knowing what to do, and Lyn asked Leviathan to watch from a distance so as not to scare them away.

Lin likes to observe the activities of other creatures, so that she can occasionally learn something interesting or useful, even if it is a small creature, it will not ignore it.

The flatfish swam for a while, then they stuck together in pairs, and sprayed a huge amount of white liquid from the small hole under the tail.

Is that a cell?

Lin released a small eyeball and swam closer, and found that these liquids were indeed small cells. One of them was oval with a few tentacles, while the other was spherical. The species with tentacles would try to drill into the spherical shape. The spherical cells then harden, preventing other tentacle cells from burrowing in.

Leafworms had done this before, and Lin still didn't understand what it was doing.

The behavior of flatfish is more unique than that of leafworms, which slowly become motionless and float in the water after releasing these cells.

like dead.

Leviathan swam close to the school of flat fish, reached out and grabbed one with his tentacles, tore it open, and put his eye into its body to take a look.

...really dead?

No, they are not actually dead, but most of the cells have reduced activity, including those in the brain, appearing to be in a 'sleeping' state, and the nutrient reserves in the body are running out, which is not the same as death almost.

They didn't get attacked by viruses or anything, the cells didn't get hurt, which means the only reason is...they're all killing themselves.

It's crazy.

But there is really no problem with their brains, and this is what puzzles Lin the most.

Many creatures have behaviors that Lin doesn't understand, but this is the first time I've seen them so crazy.

So Lin released the collector, caught some cells that the flatfish spewed and assembled and brought them back to the Leviathan.

After that, Lin created a hardened transparent ball and placed them inside, intending to observe their changes for a long time. What peculiar ability does this thing have? You can make the flat fish fight with their lives to make them.

Although Lin thinks it is extremely unreasonable, Lin knows that they must have their own reasons. Things like 'intelligence' are very complicated...

As for the 'sleeping' flat fish around, none of them wasted as Lin's reserve.

During this trip, Leviathan has grown 50% larger than before, but the actual amount of food obtained can more than triple, but Lin did not continue to increase, but stored more food.

Lin has a compression storage method, which is to compress a large number of fat cells together without providing them with oxygen, which can reduce a lot of space, and they are not active anyway.

Then it's time to continue traveling.

Lin left the water full of lightning and restlessness, and slowly dived deep...

In the area under the sea, a huge sandy beach appeared before Leviathan's eyes. This kind of environment is quite common, but this time, Lin felt strange.

There are many huge circular holes all over this beach, and there are many of them. Lin has a total of ten in the current field of vision, and there are many living creatures around, such as trilobites or flat fish.

The openings are just a little wider than the Leviathan, and it's just the right size to look inside.

Of course, Lin will not let Leviathan go in directly, but will create a new type of troops to explore dangerous situations.
