Chapter 32 Superindividuals
This peculiar thing is half the size of an aircraft carrier, like a hemispherical stone, and has a neat circle of holes in it.
Lin has never seen this thing on the beach near the base, and it remembers every object on the beach near the base. Only after the sea appeared.
It's a very strange feeling, but Lin doesn't have time to care about it now, the warheads quickly climbed back to the rock where the base is located, and Lin wants to make some modifications to them.
Warheads have a completely sealed carapace to keep water out of their bodies, but this also creates problems, they don't get oxygen, which makes them slow.
Lin found that if many creatures lack oxygen, the cells in the body will die, but it does not, it just slows down.
But this doesn't mean that Lin doesn't need oxygen. Lin first made holes in the shells of the warheads, but absorbing oxygen will cause water loss, so it has to construct a new type of arms - water replenishment warheads, responsible for absorbing water to the edge of the island , and then replenish the other warheads.
Next, Lin plans to build various organ structures on this island, but it is not easy to build here. In the water, Lin can piece together cells at will, no matter where you are in the water, but on land, you must ensure that there is water to allow the cells to move and form. And then you have to have a case for UV protection...
Just use the warhead to build it.
Lin let several warheads eat a large amount of chitin in the base, and then climbed outside, smeared the chitin on the sand in a circular shape, and piled it up layer by layer to form a barrel shape. Structure.
This type of chitin has a late hardening time and is very viscous. Sand can be mixed in to reduce the consumption of chitin, but the density must be ensured to avoid leakage of water.
Then Lin let the hydrating warhead go to the edge of the island to absorb water, transport the water back and put it into these 'buckets', then Lin can make the basic cells start to divide inside the 'bucket', and then the top of the 'bucket' can make a Construction of the switch.
A good idea, mainly because the tentacles of the giant shield that envelop the base cannot be opened, so Lin has to build a breeding cabin outside in order to make bigger things and troops. In the end, Lin plans to wrap the entire island and build a Huge land base.
Although it doesn't feel like it makes sense to build such a large base on land, it at least means that Lin is used to this place.
Lin put the warheads to work. Some of them are responsible for coating the husk, mixing in the gravel, and some responsible for fetching water and building a huge 'breeding barrel'. Lin intends to make it the size of an aircraft carrier, but this must be done before daylight. , If the ultraviolet rays come, then everything will be in vain.
The warheads were working quickly under the starlight of the night. They had built about 10% of the height next to the boulders at the base. At this moment, a warhead that was in charge of coating the shell material suddenly came to the thought. It was like As if it was caught by something, the strong pressure caused a crack in the outer shell, and a lot of water and cells suddenly flowed out from it.
The body of the warhead is a hollow structure filled with water. If it is cracked, various cells, including organs, etc. may flow out, but Lin is more concerned about what attacked the warhead?
The other warheads immediately gathered towards the attack point, and Lin discovered the culprit of the attack—the hemispherical stone she had seen before.
No, this is not a stone... It is a creature, and it has a total of eight thick appendages supporting its hemispherical body, and it also has two forelimbs with giant pincers, and the bullet just now was clamped by its pincers Live, it's almost pinched off now.
It may have shrunk all the limbs into its body before, so Lin didn't see that it looked like a creature, but this thing has no mouth,
There is only one row of holes in the semicircle, so at first Lin just regarded it as those immobile creatures like corals, but she didn't expect to have such power.
The bullet casing is not very hard.
It was mainly used to protect against ultraviolet rays, and Lin never thought about any predators on land, so there was no carapace to reinforce the warhead at all.
The clipped warhead has now been crushed into two pieces by the giant pincers. Lin immediately made all the warheads around to start retreating and crawled back to the boulder of the base. They were unable to deal with this heavily armed creature.
The other party did not pursue, but stayed in place, and the torn warhead was also thrown on the ground.
Does it not eat?
Lin was wondering when suddenly a large number of small creatures pierced out of the holes on the creature's semicircular body. These creatures had the same semicircular body as the big one, eight appendages and forelimbs with pincers, but they also had one more With mouths full of small barbs, some of them went to eat the warheads that were caught in two, and some of them went after the warheads that Lin escaped.
This creature...
Lin couldn't help being a little surprised when she saw this phenomenon. This creature is quite similar to Lin's own mode of action, a large body, and then released small troops to eat or attack?
Maybe the name 'Legion Ball' is suitable for it, but it is still different from Lin. For example, the "Legion Ball" released are all small individuals with the same length as the large main body, and there is no specialization or the like.
The small army ball is about the size of the warhead, which also means that the warheads do not have to escape, but fight back!
The warheads collectively turned their heads and rushed towards the Legion Balls. The number of small Legion Balls was around thirty, but Lin's warheads were about the same, so it might be a close battle.
The shape of the warheads is very suitable for impact, Lin let them hit the lower plate of the small legion ball directly, and overturned it, the semicircular body of the legion ball was difficult to flip back, and the warhead immediately pierced the legion ball with its sharp limbs. in the mouth.
The small legion ball's pincers were too small to do much damage to the warhead's carapace, and the moment the warhead counterattacked, they collapsed.
The Legion Ball found that the situation was unfavorable. Except for those who were knocked over by the warhead, the rest fled back into the body of the Big Legion Ball, and then the Big Legion Ball rushed towards the warheads.
Still have to retreat...
Lin let the warhead climb up the boulder of the base at full speed and returned to the base, and the big legion ball actually caught up, it inserted its limbs into the cracks between the stone walls and climbed up!
Lin was a little surprised to see this scene. The Legion Ball must have been used to climbing up high places on land. Otherwise, if it climbed directly, its legs would not be able to adapt to the weight of the body and would break.
This creature is so strange, why haven't I seen it before? Lin now has an idea that she really wants to catch it for research.
Lin's warhead quickly drilled into the base through the small hole at the top. At this time, the Legion Ball also climbed to this position. It has no eyes on its body. It is estimated that it was tracked by other methods. It seemed to find that its attack power could not be destroyed, so it stayed there motionless.
What is this doing? Are you here waiting for the bullet to come out? Lin put out her small eyeballs to observe the Legion Ball. Its current posture is to place the pliers near the hole where the bullets drilled, and it seems that they are indeed waiting for the bullets to come out.
Pretty smart feeling, but it won't be long before daylight, how does it cope with UV rays?
Maybe it has a way to avoid UV rays, or it will be killed by UV rays, but either way, it's not what Lin wants.
Lin wanted a living Legion Ball to study, so...
Lin suddenly opened the tentacles of the giant shield suddenly, and the Legion Ball fell into the base in an instant without reacting. At this time, Lin closed all the tentacles of the giant shield again, trapping the Legion Ball in the base.
The opening just now shed a lot of water, but it also caught the Legion Ball. Immediately, countless tentacles in the base entangled it. These tentacles have been muscle-strengthened, and they can move even in an anhydrous space.
In the dark environment, the Legion Ball struggled desperately. Even though it could pinch off one or two tentacles, dozens of them were now entangled in it. Weak and weak, at the same time, Lin blocked the holes in it, preventing the small army from coming out.
Now that the Legion Ball is completely immobile, the next step is to disassemble it.
But I'm afraid Lin will have to wait for a while.
The main organs of the base are all located inside the rock, and the water inside has not leaked at all, but the water above the base has almost leaked. Lin must refill the place with water and then use cells to decompose the Legion Ball in order to carefully understand its internal details. structure.
However, now that the day is approaching, Lin cannot go out to fetch water when the ultraviolet rays are raging.
Then wait until the night, a long time.
During this waiting period, Lin turned her attention back to Leviathan.
