Capítulo 219: Chapter 218 Ancient squid
Why would the Deep Sand Bus come here? Why did the Aztecs attack Maya?
This was not easy to guess. Lin believed that it could not be revenge for something that happened so many years ago.
This Deepsand Bus wasn't the one that Lin first discovered. That one was still on the island, untouched. In fact, according to the current lifestyle of the Aztecs, it wasn't easy for them to breed a Deepsand Bus, yet it was wasted just like that.
There were still many unanswered questions, but the brain worm didn't care about them.
"Du du du da da da, victory in battle, roll, fly to the moon."
The cephalopod sang while directing the infantrymen in the airship. Because the sails were destroyed, it needed to make new ones.
However, the brainworm had already given up on the previous method of flying with three sails. Instead, it made four sails, and then extended them out of the holes on both sides of the airship. It let the infantry move the wooden pillars inside, and let the sails move in the air like the wings of a dragonfly.
This method was more efficient, and it wasn't affected by the wind direction. The brain worm had chosen a method that was close to perfect. Now, it could move faster in the air.
Although in Lin's eyes, it was still very slow …
"Let's go, let's go."
Under the brainworm's command, the infantrymen in the airship began to control the movement of the sails. A large number of infantrymen on the ground and those hanging from the ceiling cooperated with each other. The 'sails' extended out of the airship like wings and moved the entire airship forward.
The headworm was still heading south, which was the direction of the desert.
Looking at the airship slowly disappearing under the moonlight, Lin felt that the headworm had learned a lot this time. It probably wouldn't run out of the airship anymore. However, it was unlikely that he would change his personality.
But no matter what. It should be able to deal with any danger.
Lin had other things to do now.
A creature was currently flying above the desert, planning to head towards the ocean. Lin wanted to see what the ocean was like and how the moon would affect the ocean. Would it make the stones in the sea fly?
This exploration creature was the Leviathan. Now that it had changed into a shell that could resist the pressure of the deep sea, it was flying rapidly over the desert. It wouldn't be long before they reached the ocean.
In the air of the desert, there were grains of sand floating everywhere like stardust. There were very few large stones, and there were no islands like the ones in the jungle. In fact, the formation of the islands was because the roots of the twisted trees connected the whole land together. Most of the stones in the desert cracked when they rose.
Up ahead, Lin once again saw a familiar sight … a forest of sharp pillars.
This was the 'jungle' that Lin had arrived at when she first landed. Now that the Aztec worms had left, the sandstorm had ravaged it, and every pillar was showing signs of drying up. It was covered by a layer of sand, and the ground was also covered with a thick layer of sand.
This area was already dead. But perhaps there was still hope.
The Leviathan flew over the Forest of Sharp Pillars and dropped some Twisted Tree seeds in a relatively innermost position. The ground here was basically mud and was not seriously eroded by sand and dust.
However, whether or not they could grow up depended on themselves.
Now, the Leviathan was above the coastal rocky area. There were creatures brought in by the tsunami everywhere, but they were basically all withered skeletons and shells. Even the rotten smell had long dissipated.
Perhaps they would turn into fossils in the future, and then be dug out by fossil enthusiasts like the Inca worms. Then, one day, they would have a chance to be resurrected.
The Leviathan flew out of the cliff. When it appeared in front of Lin, Lin immediately noticed a problem.
The water level seemed to have risen.
The cliff should have been more than 50 meters above the sea, but now it was only 20 meters. What caused it to rise? Was it related to the moon? But it was impossible for the water to contain singing stones.
If the sea level rose, it might drown the nearby land. But Lin didn't think it would drown in the direction of the desert because the terrain there was higher.
Under the moonlight, the sea water glowed with a blue radiance. It seemed that the toxins in it were not as serious as before. At the same time, there were many floating stones on the surface of the sea. It seemed that this place was also affected by the moon, but the stones here didn't seem to fly that high …
The highest height of the singing stones in the Twisted Jungle was about 300 meters. This was probably related to the content of the singing stones.
The Leviathan rushed into the sea. From its olfactory tentacles, Lin once again smelled the stench of toxins, but it was not as strong as before.
The Leviathan swallowed some water to decompose, and Lin found that the toxins in it had decreased by a lot. In this environment, some creatures should be able to live, but she didn't know if all of them had died. If so, she would have to catch some of them from the Inca Crater and bring them here.
The sea at night was still shrouded in darkness. The Leviathan extended its glowing tentacles and continued to move deeper into the sea.
The deeper it went, the less toxins there were. By the time it reached the bottom, there was almost no toxins. The sea water was as clear as before, and it seemed that the toxins had risen and then disappeared.
At the bottom of the sea, there were potholes and cracks everywhere. These traces were probably caused by the moon. The rocks at the bottom of the sea were also composed of singing stones. When the moon came, they cracked and floated to the surface.
The bottom of the sea was still littered with corpses. Lin once found Fog Worms at the bottom of the sea, but those creatures didn't eat corpses, so they couldn't stay here for a long time. In fact, many creatures didn't eat corpses, so some of them developed a special trick called playing dead. Some creatures would even release a rancid odor to deter predators from approaching. It seemed to be very effective.
The Leviathan used its light to slowly examine the corpses. There were many single-celled creatures in the water here, and Lin found that there was also a multi-celled creature on these corpses.
This is …
It seemed to be Lin's first time seeing this creature. They were very small, only about 10 centimeters in length. They looked like a small chrysanthemum with 10 tentacles and a spherical body, but what covered their bodies didn't seem to be a shell, but a thin membrane.
Lin had probably seen similar creatures before, but those creatures couldn't swim and only used their tentacles to crawl on the ground. Meanwhile, these small creatures were happily swaying between the corpses. When they saw the Leviathan approaching, their bodies instantly turned the same color as their surroundings to hide.
In any case, they seemed to be the first multi-celled creatures to appear in the Sea of Disaster, so Lin felt the need to dissect them to take a look.
The Leviathan abruptly shot out a small tentacle like a bullet, caught the creature before it could even react, and swallowed it with a mouth attached to the end of the tentacle.
After the Leviathan swallowed the creature, one of its own kind immediately turned into a dazzling snow-white color. It used its tentacle to wrap around a nearby bone fragment and rushed forward to stab the Leviathan's tentacle with it.
Lin found the little creature's actions very interesting. It could actually do such a thing? This was a very strange thing.
It didn't only try to save its companion, it also tried to attack the Leviathan, which was such a huge creature. This was an abnormal behavior. Normally, creatures would immediately retreat when they saw that they had no chance of winning. If they simply attacked, they would only waste more of their lives.
Secondly, it actually picked up a bone fragment to attack? Lin had seen countless creatures that used objects to build structures, but this was the first time she saw a creature that directly attacked with an object.
Of course, this didn't have any effect. After all, the bone fragment wasn't a claw that grew from its body, nor was it something that had been reconstructed in its body to suit itself. After it stabbed the Leviathan's tentacle a few times, the Leviathan lightly shook its tentacle and knocked the bone fragment away.
Seeing this, the creature immediately turned into a series of bright colors, such as red, yellow, and so on. At this moment, all of its kind were filled with anger, and they all picked up some bone fragments and rushed towards the Leviathan.
Not all of them rushed towards the Leviathan. Lin noticed that a few of them turned black and fled in the opposite direction in fear.
At this time, the Leviathan had already sent the one it swallowed into its body and began to decompose. At the same time, hundreds of these creatures surrounded the Leviathan. They constantly scraped the Leviathan's carapace with their bone fragments. Some of them were responsible for attacking the Leviathan's tentacles, while a few of them were constantly swimming around the Leviathan, as if they were looking for a weakness.
This is really fun.
Even if the Leviathan didn't move, they couldn't hurt it at all even if they exhausted their physical strength. Even the tentacles were covered by a layer of hard shell.
The Leviathan ignored their attacks and began to decompose the creature in its body.
At first glance, it didn't seem to be anything special. Its tentacles were composed of muscles, and each tentacle was controlled by a ganglion, which seemed to allow it to control each tentacle more completely. However, what Lin was concerned about was its brain density, which was actually 1.17%, which was much higher than ordinary creatures.
Is that why they have so many strange behaviors? In order to record them, Lin named them 'Ancient Squid'.
It didn't feel like a special name.
Now, this group of Ancient Squid was constantly attacking the Leviathan, but their bones were all crushed to no avail. So, they kept changing color. Lin noticed that they seemed to be communicating with each other through changing color?
However, the evolution level of this color change was not high enough. Lin thought that they should see what color change was.
The Leviathan released a troop type. This troop type was originally rolled into a ball, but after entering the water, it instantly unfolded. This was a display. The Ancient Squid saw this and gathered around curiously. At this moment, the display suddenly showed an image of a Brondu scorpion charging over!
Lin sensed that the Ancient Squid were instantly filled with fear. Their bodies turned black and they quickly fled in all directions. Two of them seemed to have fainted from the shock.
It was really fun. Floating astronomy.
