Chapter 27 Cold and Hope
This is...the situation here...
A huge tree with a height of more than 300 meters stood in front of Lin's eyes, but it was lifeless, and the surface of the bark was covered with a layer of white frost.
And this tree is also standing above a wide glacier... If you fly above, you can see that the ice has been spreading out from here, and leads to the sea in the distance.
This is the former underground world. After the collapse, a huge canyon filled with water was formed because the sea water rushed in. Later, because the sea water receded, the ancient squids who stayed here had to struggle to survive in the puddles.
Perhaps for some other reason, the sea came in again, and this time the water did not recede, but formed a river of ice crystals in the canyon.
It's not just that the surface is frozen, it seems that even the water is frozen, resulting in a complete glacier.
Lin could see that the home trees stood above this glacier. They had completely died, but they had not collapsed. These home trees were still standing here like towers, witnessing the end of this continent.
Is it really over? Lin can't confirm it yet, but the ancient squids living there... I'm afraid they're long gone.
Just like Muktu.
On the other side, the head bug's body was wrapped in a furry thing called pompom hair, and flew over from the ark on a transporter.
After discovering the crystalline creature, the eyeballs began to spread out to explore. On the other side of the jungle, Lin found something familiar, so she brought the head worm over.
"Muketu..." The head worm rolled to the ground on the transporter's back, in front of it. It's a huge rocky mountain. There are many similar shapes in the nearby jungle.
This is the rocky mountain of their tribe. However, the inside of the rocky mountain was empty, and there was not a single worm in it.
However, some traces can still be seen. Lin thinks that Muktu may have left here with the ethnic group. It may be elsewhere in the continent, or it may have left the continent.
"It's rolling." The head worm looked at these rocks, and the roaring worm, who was carried over on the back of the transporter, shouted to the sky: "Muketu-!! Get out of here-!!"
"It might roll over at sea," Lynn's transporter said. "Just like you."
"Frozen at sea.
"Headworm said: "Like Montezuma." "
Although Monte II has evolved into III, it is indeed in a state of hibernation now, and I don't know how long it will take to wake up. It seems that all creatures have a sense of despair over this severe cold. The three generations of Montezuma have been trying to rebuild the tribe no matter what kind of difficulties they encounter, but now they are planning to go to hibernation.
"Amon." The head worm suddenly rolled in a circle, and it looked up to the sky and said, "It may have rolled too."
Amon is another head bug. The island called Twin Island is also covered by cold. It is indeed possible for it to leave there and look for other places, but can it really be found?
Next, Lin used the transporter and the eyeballs to explore the North Continent together with the head bug, in other places. Also found many rocky mountains of Muketu, during the period when Lin and the head bug arrived at the dinosaur land. The Muktu seem to have expanded so much that, like the Mayan groups of all time, they expanded without harming the environment around them.
"It's like tumbling across the grass without overpowering any grass, but the tumbler has disappeared." As for the current situation, the headworm commented like this...
Each rock is empty, and since there are no corpses, it can be assumed that they have left here, but so far there is no trace of Muketu making ships.
And this jungle is as empty as a rocky mountain, and there are hardly any animals in it. The few crystalline creatures that Lin saw at the beginning were just by chance, and no animals were seen after that.
It looks like the jungle in the Dinosaur Land, but the state here is... slightly better, at least there are no huge cracks everywhere, no traces of destruction left by the creator... The jungle here seems to be asleep Generally, just like an ordinary winter.
Twisted trees are very resistant to severe cold. In fact, most of the trees are still alive, but before each winter, they collect a lot of nutrients to survive the winter. This time the cold came very suddenly. Gather enough nutrients, and they will soon die...
In the next few days and nights, Lin has been exploring this continent, but there is no plan to land at present, the emerald dragon and the skeleton dragon are still wandering in the dream, and the other creatures in the ark must continue to stay there In a narrow space...
After exploring most of the area, Lin transported the head worm back, but the exploration was not over yet.
This time, Lin used her brain to explore. Now Lin has added a ball of plush to the outside of her brain, which makes it look like a pom-pom, and this layer of hair can also be used to assist in sending brain waves.
When flying over land, the brain is continuously sending brain waves and recording all the surrounding environment, every grain of sand, every tree, and then Lin starts to make a map in the dream.
This map not only shows where things are, as before, but also shows the temperature of those areas, where the temperature is hotter and which is colder in a color.
Those places with relatively high temperature, Lin speculated that it may be caused by some activity in the ground, and Lin will see if she can find a decent place.
And that place is... hope.
Moreover, Lin also made a kind of unit called 'brain wave diffuser', which is in the shape of a dragonfly and can receive brain waves and transmit them to further distances.
Using this method, the entire continent can be detected very quickly.
But... all Lin could detect was despair...
Cold sands, snow-covered jungles, nothing… better, warmer places.
In addition to the canyon, when the brain detected the glaciers in the canyon, Lin felt something special, but it is impossible for the creatures here to stay under the glaciers...
This continent is no longer suitable for life. If this is the case, other places are probably the same. Lin thinks that there is no need to search for any suitable place to live in the sea. Even if I go to other continents, I will only see Just ice.
However, that doesn't mean you can't live.
Now that the world is full of despair, it is up to you to build hope! (To be continued...)
