Chapter 48 Blue Moon
Here is... where?
All I know now is that there is a piece of liquid around... This feeling is in the water? But there is only boundless darkness around.
...because the outer layer is wrapped.
Lin slowly dissolved the shell from the inside. When the last layer was left, Lin created a layer of transparent shell material, and then forced the last layer of shell to open.
'Goo. ' A few bubbles floated around, and the surrounding environment lit up again. Lin saw a piece of water that was a little bit blue, and it felt very strange...
But most importantly, it's quite far away.
The surrounding is a blue color, the body feels extremely light, there is no cold here, there is no whistling of the storm, here is a sea of activity, here is the destination of Leviathan!
That's right...here is the surface of the moon! Leviathan succeeded, and now Lynn has successfully reached the moon.
Sure enough, just as Lin had imagined, the surface of the moon is an ocean, bluer and more turbulent than the ocean on land...
Lin had thought about various issues before, especially the cause of the explosion. Although she had done many calculations, she still felt very dangerous with so much fuel.
Therefore, Lin created many special 'fragments' in Leviathan, which are very small and surrounded by a solid shell that is completely sealed.
This layer of shell material has many characteristics such as high temperature resistance and shock resistance, and some very 'primitive' cells are placed inside. These cells can live in almost any environment, including anaerobic environment, high temperature or low temperature. It has a very strong vitality.
These cell-laden chitins are distributed almost throughout Leviathan. When the Leviathan exploded. It will also spread out, perhaps because the Leviathan was very close to the moon when it exploded, so when it exploded, some fragments fell into the moon, like a meteorite.
Now, Lin can feel that there are still some debris around, they are distributed on the moon, and there are also some debris floating in the dark space outside...
The debris that fell on the moon was very small. They are no larger than five centimeters, and the smallest are only a few millimeters. Although the fragments originally created by Lin are also of different sizes, it seems that the ones that fell into the moon have been worn out.
They don't have vision, so Lin has to dissolve their shells to grow eyeballs, but when they grow eyeballs, the cells inside will not touch the outside environment.
This is to prevent the entry of toxic substances. Lin still doesn't know what the environment is like here, because the water is blue and has a weird feeling. In addition, there are many bubbles, but I don't know if it is oxygen.
but. The creature that Lin is most looking forward to has not yet been discovered, in short, let these fragments gather...
Just choose this place. Lin saw a small island not far ahead, only about ten meters in height.
Thinking about it, Lin slowly dissolves the fragments inside, transforming this one-centimeter fragment into a movable space, forming internal organs and muscles in it. Some muscles cover the body surface with shell substances and dissolve the original fragments. These muscles form fish-like flippers that swim rapidly in the water.
The feeling here is much lighter. It seems to be due to the relationship of gravity. Although I don't know why gravity is born, Lin knows that it has something to do with the size of the object. Even the fins that are randomly made can reach extremely fast speeds.
When Lin was thinking about it, the surrounding water suddenly became much faster, and the debris in the water was immediately washed away by the current, but the first debris had already caught the edge of the island, and it stretched out some arthropod-like limbs. The pointed feet climbed up slowly.
If you look back after climbing on land, you can see a rolling ocean, and the sky is blocked by a thick layer of fog, and you can't see the clouds or the sky.
But there is light here, and the sun shines in as well, and it provides warmth here.
After the ocean slowly calmed down, the surrounding debris quickly climbed onto the island, but there were more debris scattered farther away, and Lin asked them to find another safe place.
After all the debris here climbed up, Lin looked around again at the surrounding ocean.
The ocean here is very similar to the land... Although the colors are a bit strange, now, Lin thinks it's time to move on to the next part...
This is the most important part, a bunch of small fragments of a few centimeters are no way to explore, so look for nutrients and let them grow into larger... fragments.
Therefore, Lin let a fragment of about two centimeters slowly climb to the seaside, and then it began to slowly open the transparent shell at the front, and inhaled some air above the moon...
At this moment, Lin suddenly felt like she smelled excrement, and the piece that had absorbed the air fell to the ground... and died.
Sure enough, the air here is poisonous, this situation is not surprising, but I didn't expect to die so quickly...
There are many types of gases in the air, but on Lin's original land, oxygen and other harmless gases occupy a large part, and the air above the moon is obviously not composed of these harmless gases.
When Lin first flew up, she thought that if each ball is surrounded by a layer of gas, and the balls are not in contact with each other, then their gas composition should be different.
The cells in this fragment have been specialized to form organs such as internal organs, and no longer maintain the 'primitive' state as before. Linte made a living system similar to the previous one to absorb it, and try to see what the poisonous gas caused influences.
Thinking about it, Lin let another shard open the shell. The cell type of this shard was a little different. It was made by Lin based on some fungi that lived near the underwater volcano.
After opening the casing, the fragments that inhaled the poisonous gas did not die immediately, but Lin felt a special feeling...
After these gases enter the cells, they will damage the internal structure of the cells, block the nutrient synthesis system inside, and cause various conditions of cell necrosis...
But this time the effect was much slower than before, and Lin found that some cells would not be affected by this.
So it was... Lin already knew how the poison gas worked. Lin closed the fragment and devoured the damaged parts, and then formed some new cells. After that, Lin opened the shell of the fragment again.
Now, the air smells a lot fresher, and these new cells are able to completely filter out harmful elements from the air.
However, although there seems to be oxygen in these air, the content is very small. It is meaningless to absorb these air now, but because these poisonous gases will harm cells even if they touch, so these changes are still necessary, as long as you know How the poison works, Lin can think of ways to resist.
The cells in these fragments are now anaerobic, and their activity is slightly slower than in the aerobic state, but because the gravity here is lighter, it won't be too slow.
Moreover, Lin has some methods of producing oxygen. One is to use cells that absorb light to produce oxygen. Recently, Lin will also use brain waves to produce oxygen. However, because the fragments are brainless, they cannot be used for the time being. The brain consumes more nutrients, and the synthesis is relatively slow, so now Lin does not plan to make a brain.
Both of these methods require water, and it's simple enough that there's water everywhere.
But what's the problem in the water?
Lin let a piece crawl to the edge of the island and gently licked some of the seawater stuck to the edge of the island.
Then, the fragment dies.
Sure enough, this water is also poisonous, no wonder the color is so strange, although there are more than a hundred fragments here, but Lin does not want to waste them...
However, the toxins in the water seem to be easier to deal with than those in the air, and then Lin let another fragment swallow some water, but this time, instead of directly absorbing the water in it, she stored it in her body, and then used a lot of sharp ends. The tentacles reach into the water to monitor the water.
It turns out that this water is mixed with many strange things, some of which will affect the nutrient synthesis of cells like those poisonous gases, damage the internal structure of cells, etc. This strange impurities together seem to make the water present a light blue color.
Lin quickly reorganized some cells in the fragment, forming a 'filter net', which can now absorb the water and filter out the impurities inside. After filtering out the safe water, it can be absorbed by other cells in the body.
Although it was successful, Lin felt a little disappointed.
The water here... has no cells at all...
In the original sea, except for a few places, a large number of various micro-organisms can be seen in the water of almost any place.
But this month's ocean seems to have no creatures at all.
It would be nice if it was just this area.
At this time, some green cells began to be produced in the fragment, and the back of the fragment slowly opened, aiming the synthesized green back at the sky and slowly absorbing light energy as nutrients...
I can finally get some nutrients. This method is very good. We can synthesize nutrients using light and water, but recently, Lin is looking for a way to produce nutrients without water and only light.
The moment Leviathan flew out of the ground, Lin felt that there might be a way to directly use light energy.
But it's better to use this method now, and the surrounding debris also begins to create the same structure together, and they start to absorb the light and grow their bodies.
The light here is not very good, but it is still light. After getting some nutrients, they will make more green cells, and they will grow faster and faster. (To be continued..)
