Chapter 121: Chapter 120
"Move"
The Brain Worm rolled to the last picture it had drawn and uttered the word.
Move? Does it mean that it wants to move there? But Lin had never seen anything like that before.
Wait a minute, it seems to be upstream …
With that in mind, Lin used the Monitor's pigment cells to display the scene at the time. In front of the headworm's eyes, the Monitor's color changed, displaying the scene of the Speeder running along the river at the time. As the river flowed upwards, every creature, every scenery, all the way until a giant wall-like tree blocked the way, where the Speeder was devoured.
"Ooooooo!" As soon as the headworm saw the giant tree, it excitedly called out and rolled back and forth on the 10th picture. It seems the giant tree that the Speeder saw upstream was the headworm's drawing.
Perhaps its secret was hidden there? Perhaps its tribe was there as well? Lin also wanted to go there to take a look, but before that, Lin needed to establish perfect communication with it.
With that in mind, Lin had the Monitor display two creatures on its body. A large number of objects appeared from the heads of the two creatures at the same time, then they sent these objects to each other. Finally, the two creatures stood together and looked into the distance. A giant tree appeared in the distance, so they both headed towards it.
One of the creatures was the headworm, while the other was Lin's Leviathan. Lin hoped that the headworm could perfectly exchange information with it before heading there.
「 Question, I don't understand 」 the headworm appeared confused as it watched the scene change. It also uttered a doubtful cry, but this only lasted for a short while. It immediately turned into understanding.
The headworm's learning ability seemed to be quite strong, but Lin believed that its large brain should have other uses that weren't fully utilized yet. At the same time, its mood also changed very quickly. It would often be anxious, but then it would become happy in the next moment. Lin found its various behaviors to be very interesting.
Communication through images was a very convenient method of communication. Lin believed that this method of communication was much better than voice communication, but because the headworm couldn't quickly draw images, she still had to use voice communication.
By using images to learn from each other, Lin and the headworm quickly gained a large vocabulary. No matter how abstract something was, the headworm would be able to understand it through images. This time, it once again demonstrated the advantage of its huge brain.
After practicing for about seven days and nights, Linki's instinct and the brain worm had achieved a perfect exchange of information. Although the pronunciation was still the same as before, the number of words in the vocabulary was much richer than before.
It was daytime now. Leviathan was standing in front of the river, and the headworm was lying on Leviathan's back.
On the opposite bank of the river. The moss slowly covered and extended. Their reproduction speed was quite fast, and the Twisted Tree seeds that were planted began to sprout. Soon, the Glittering Forest would be restored!
"Lair. Home, upstream of the river. The place where my people lived was shaken, destroyed, exterminated, and my people were wiped out … "
The headworm laid on top of the Leviathan's body and told its story. Regarding this matter, it could be seen from the painting that the headworm's race had probably encountered a disaster similar to the one Lin had encountered at the bottom of the sea. The earth had cracked open due to the earthquake, and the destruction was quite great. However, Lin was now able to fly, so she was no longer afraid of the disaster on the surface.
"Qibucha bugs, the controllers of the crystal lizards, the inhabitants of the crystal. They found me, imprisoned me, and fed me. I saw them raising a kind of creature that represented death and danger, a fungus."
When the headworm said this, it became excited. It seemed like it liked to talk non-stop, and sometimes its tone would change according to its mood. However, this change was relatively small, and most of the time, it was the same tone.
The headworm was still talking non-stop. "Fungus, plants fear, they destroy trees, wood cracks, collapse, fire, spread …"
"Stop talking, get ready to go. Target is the Hometree."
The Leviathan vibrated its vocal sac and made a sound to interrupt the headworm. After all, what it said was what Lin already knew.
The headworm called the giant tree in the painting 'Hometree'. In fact, it was just combining the two words' Hometree 'and' Hometree '. According to the headworm, there might be some survivors of its race living there.
The headworm said, "Understood, shut up."
Following that, the Leviathan began to move forward. Although it couldn't run as fast as the Fleetfoot, and it couldn't fly in the jungle, it was still very safe. The Leviathan had very few opponents in this jungle.
As for the other troops, Lin left them in the base to deal with the Aztec bugs. If the Aztec bugs were driven into the desert because of the headworm's race, now that they knew that the headworm's race had been destroyed, they might attack at any time.
Under the surveillance of the Flyers, the Aztec bugs' recent behavior had become strange. They used to take the bus once every three days, but recently, there had been a sudden change. Lin's Flyers had followed dozens of large Aztec bugs from the forest of spires into the Deepsand Bus. After that, they didn't see the entrance open for 7 days straight.
Could it be that they were heading to somewhere very far away?
She didn't know yet … but this shouldn't be normal.
It would take a long time for the Leviathan to bring the headworm to the Hometree, so Lin wanted to observe the Aztec bugs first. However, Lin wanted to observe the situation inside the Deepsand Bus, but she couldn't rely on light to know the details.
Most Aztec bugs didn't have eyes, but they were very sensitive to light, so they couldn't emit light inside the bus.
How troublesome.
… Right.
With that in mind, Lin ordered the Flyers inside the Deepsand Bus to synthesize a small eyeball, then threw the eyeball out. It rolled on the ground for a while before coming to a stop.
Lin didn't know where the eyeball rolled to, but it didn't matter as long as it wasn't discovered.
Lin's new idea was' explosive light '. Then, Lin ordered the Flyers to curl up into a ball and melted a part of their carapace and glued it together. At the same time, the Flyers' internal organs were rapidly transformed. The transformation of this small unit was relatively fast, and it didn't take long for the Flyers to be completed.
The transformed Flyers flew above the small eyeball. Although they couldn't see it, Lin knew where the eyeball was.
Then … Boom!
The Flyers exploded. At the moment of explosion, it emitted an extremely dazzling light that illuminated the entire area. The small eyeball on the ground was able to clearly see the structure of the surrounding environment.
It was a cave-like place. The ground, cave walls and everything else should be made up of some kind of crustaceous substance. In addition, the ceiling of the cavern was filled with tubes that resembled blood vessels. Various Aztec bugs crawled all over the place.
The light from the Flyers' explosion only lasted for a moment before vanishing. But it only took a moment for Lin to clearly see the structure of the interior. At the same time, the Aztec bugs started to become restless because of the flash. They crazily crawled all over the place, as though trying to find the object that emitted light.
Unfortunately, they couldn't find anything.
Lin was now certain that the 'Deepsand Bus' should be a rather huge creature. Just the interior of its body alone was rather spacious. It might be much bigger than the giant jellyfish that Lin had seen before, or even bigger than Bechymos.
Lin wasn't sure if it was a species of Aztec bugs, or a creature that had formed a symbiotic relationship with them.
No matter which aspect it was, the mysteries surrounding this gigantic creature were increasing. Lin hadn't seen it eat anything, nor had she seen it burrow out of the sand.
More research was required ….
Very quickly, several days and nights had passed. The Leviathan had used several times more time to reach the upper reaches of the river, where it could see the gigantic tree.
"Home!" Upon seeing the gigantic tree before its eyes, the Cephalopod cried out in excitement. This time, Lin wasn't attacked. The Leviathan raised its eyeball and looked at it with its tentacles. It was an incomparably huge tree. Its trunk was even surrounded by many clouds, preventing Lin from clearly seeing the situation at the top. Its width was also over 50 meters. Many flying arthropods were circling around the surface of this gigantic tree. They dug holes in the bark to live in, while some used twigs to build nests on the bark.
The water of the river gushed down from above. It didn't seem like a river, but a 'waterfall'.
How did this tree grow to such a huge size?
The Leviathan walked under the gigantic tree and looked up at the gigantic trunk that towered into the clouds. Slowly, it extended its wings from its carapace.
There seemed to be something special about the Gnarled Grove. After approaching a certain distance from the Home Tree, it stopped extending. Therefore, there was a circle of empty space around the Home Tree, where the Leviathan could take off.
"Fly! Fly! " The Cephalopod seemed to be quite excited when it saw the Leviathan spreading its wings. It began to cry out, but this action almost caused it to tumble and fall.
"Stop shaking. Prepare to fly."
The Leviathan extended its tentacles to stabilize the Cephalopod. This creature didn't have any arthropods that could hold on to the Leviathan, so it could easily fall and become meat paste. After confirming that the Cephalopod was stable, the Leviathan flapped its wings and rose into the sky. Lin was also curious to see what the environment above was like.
As the Leviathan rose, the surrounding environment began to shrink. The Gnarled Trees in this area were about 30 meters tall, which wasn't very tall. The Gnarled Trees in the Gnarled Grove could grow up to 100 meters tall, which was why they could form a good 'sand-proof wall'. The Home Tree's height was ….
Although it hadn't reached the top yet, according to Lin's calculations, it should be more than 200 meters tall.
The Leviathan flew along the waterfall and approached one of the clouds. Lin was curious as to why the clouds here were floating so low. As soon as the Leviathan came into contact with them, they suddenly scattered. The 'clouds' then turned into countless small creatures covered in white fur. They rotated their bodies while dispersing into the surroundings.
This is quite interesting.
While Lin was observing these small creatures, a huge round mouth full of hooked teeth suddenly rushed out from the waterfall and pounced on the Leviathan! (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point to cast a recommendation vote or monthly vote.
