Chapter 22 Change

These flying insects are only about two centimeters each, but the number is very large. They are obviously also one of the Inca swarms. They are slender and have a sharp needle at the tail. It seems that they do not intend to let the Leviathan go. look.

'boom! ’

Before the flying insects rushed to them, Lin fired a bomb into them. Suddenly, countless flying insects fell under the impact of the explosion and the solution. Almost all of these insects were corroded and festered, and they could no longer be seen. What is it like.

But the other flying insects that were not affected still rushed up without fear. They tried to surround Leviathan. Lin found a small flying insect approaching Leviathan's wings and pricked the wings with its tail.

At this moment, Lin felt that the flying insect injected something into Leviathan's wings with the needle in its tail. Because Lin had small eyeballs swimming in the blood vessels, she quickly saw what it was.

It was a round thing, it suddenly cracked, and a white worm with fangs drilled out of it, and began to eat and attack the cells around Lin.

Is it an egg? It seems that the attack method of this small flying insect is to lay eggs in the opponent's body, which feels really special.

Now, there are a large number of flying insects surrounding them, Leviathan slammed his wings, and the strong air flow generated immediately blew them out, and then Lin immediately flew to the heights, and all the small flying insects also chased again. come up.

The speed of Leviathan is much faster than that of flying insects. After Lin flew into the air for a while, she could no longer see their shadows, and it was quite easy to get rid of them.

As for the bug in Leviathan's wings, it was already blocked by Lin.

Lin's immune system is different from other creatures. Other creatures generally let immune cells surround and kill the enemies that invaded the body. If they can't beat the enemy, it's over, but Lin is transporting chitinous substances in the blood vessels to the target site. Then let the cells surrounding the invader begin to secrete chitin, forming a hard ball that completely seals the invader inside.

As for how to deal with this hard ball, that's all you need. It can be excreted or dissolved.

To deal with the virus, Lin also uses the same method, blocking the infected cell with chitin before the virus divides.

Because of the way of life that the virus must burrow into the cell to multiply, it is impossible for the virus to reproduce in Lin's body.

This immunization method is quite efficient, so Lin's troops do not have any parasites or viruses in their bodies. These creatures seem to be very simple and small, but they can cause incalculable effects on multicellular organisms.

So what to do now?

Although Lin wanted to continue her research and observation of the Inca swarm, she seemed unable to get close to them. In that case, let's continue her journey to find the empty jellyfish, but the research must continue.

Lin created a new type of soldier called the 'Infiltrator'. This type of soldier not only changes color, but also hides its own smell. Most importantly, it can be deformed.

This was made by Lin based on the creature named Slime... no, amoeba in her memory.

The infiltrator itself is made up of a mass of cells, each cell is protected by a jelly that prevents water leakage, and when the cells are combined, the jelly can be connected together, because there are no fixed structures and organs, it can change It doesn't matter if it can be cut into any shape, go through any gap, or cut into several pieces, but it doesn't have any offensive power in itself, it's just for research.

Lin threw an infiltrator from the sky. The infiltrator was a small ball with a diameter of 10 centimeters when it was first created. When it was transformed, it did not have a fixed size.

The infiltrator fell from the sky into the pool of the giant pit below, and it instantly turned transparent, and observed the surrounding situation with a small eyeball.

The water was still full of worms and dragonfly larvae, and the infiltrator was responsible for observing the water. Leviathan dropped two infiltrators again, and they fell right next to the opening of a staircase.

In addition, Lin also released dozens of flying fliers that will change color, and these units can completely study and record the activities of the Inca swarm here.

The role of the flyer is to observe the changes in this huge pit. As for the inside of the cave, two infiltrators enter and observe. Of course, these two are only preliminary investigations, and the complete investigation will take Lin back.

Lin may bring a large number of troops to study, but now Lin has other things to do.

Because of the rain and the huge crater that took a lot of time, Leviathan must fly to the direction of the ocean again and continue to look for traces of empty jellyfish.

Spreading its wings, facing the hot wind in the desert, the Leviathan flew on the journey again.

Shortly after the Leviathan left, the fliers and infiltrators in the crater observed the activity of the Inca swarm, and their troops poured out of the hole again, dragging all the dragonflies back into the cave.

Lin's two infiltrators also got into one of the stepped caves at this time. It was almost completely dark inside. This was very troublesome. It's not that the infiltrators couldn't emit light, but if they did, they would definitely be discovered, so Lin let them Move all the way inside to see if there is something glowing inside.

In the next few days and nights, Lin noticed that the black bees were one of the most common troops in the Inca swarm. They were responsible for hauling food and cleaning the dust in the entire pothole. They should be regarded as 'sappers' in nature. Well, they can secrete a viscous substance that sticks the sand into balls and then moves it out of the pit. Lin has hardly seen other species appear. Occasionally, she sees the bug with a big eyeball coming out. It looks around and then runs away. gone back.

On the seventh day and night, Lin saw the appearance of those fat worms that spun silky sticky Leviathan before. As soon as they came out of the hole, they began to spit out a lot of silk. These silks seemed to be different from before, without stickiness. By tying those threads together, you end up weaving a large amount of silk into one giant wire mesh.

The swarms weave silk nets into the water, then put them on for a period of time and then drag them up. They use this method to catch a large number of worms and dragonfly larvae. Why do they catch them now? Because the larvae are only now grown up.

However, this technique is really quite surprising, they can think of such a way to take advantage of rain, giant pits, and dragonflies?

This level of intelligence is no longer simple.

How did they evolve? Lin is not surprised by their division of labor and cooperation, because there are quite a few types of single cells that also have division of labor and cooperation, and only in this way can they evolve into multiple cells.

So it's not surprising that multicellular organisms cooperate like single cells, but this situation is relatively rare. Most multicellular organisms are just reunited. Only a few more advanced species have evolved different individuals to cooperate with each other. .

What Lin cares about is their intelligence. Lin doesn't think they are the same creatures as herself. It can be seen from the fact that they rely on their voices to summon their companions. These creatures cannot communicate at infinite distances. These creatures should be brain creatures.

So...what motivates them to have this intelligence?

That's what Lin wants to study, but I'll talk about it after I find the empty jellyfish.

... Lin has never considered what to do if it encounters other species whose intelligence is close to its own or equivalent, and it still treats them in the same way as it treats other creatures.

Study each other and learn from each other's advantages...

After several days and nights of flight, the Leviathan finally reached the ocean.

The overall layout of the North Continent is now roughly clear, with the ocean to the south, the desert in the middle, and the twisted jungle to the north.

The size of the entire land is still unknown. Leviathan did not fly at full speed, but used a more leisurely gliding method. The place where Lin originally landed just happened to encounter the Sharp Column Forest, but now Lin is directly south of the giant pit. Flying, the beach here has no pinnacles, only cliffs composed of rocks, and further down is the sea.

Leviathan was above the cliff, and Lin saw that there were many corpses of fish. Their corpses seemed to have no creatures to eat. The flesh of the whole body was still intact, but they were all dry.

There are also many mummified corpses of scorpions and trilobites. From a high altitude, these corpses are scattered all over the seaside cliff, which reminds Lin of the disaster at that time.

It seems that there was also a tsunami that brought these fish and scorpions to land, but they all died because of lack of water.

The sea is right next to it, how can there be no water? Even with warm water, you can drink a little bit, right?

The answer lies in the sea...

Leviathan flew off the cliff and saw a sea dyed black...
