Chapitre 74: Chapter 74
Looking at the incoming wave, Rin knew there was no way to stop it. She could only … face it head-on!
Lin had Leviathan stick its tentacles tightly to the rock wall and created many long hooks with barbs to stab into the cracks of the rock wall, firmly holding Leviathan in place. At the same time, she had all the transporters in the tsunami reinforce their outer shells.
By the time Rin finished her preparations, the tsunami was already close to the Northern Continent. The highest peak of the wave was over ten meters higher than the cliffs on land.
It's here …
Boom!
When the hundred-meter-tall water wall collided with the rock wall, it was as if the entire world was shaking. The incomparable vibrations constantly stimulated Lin's sensory cells. The strong water current washed over the Leviathan that was fixed to the rock wall, as if it was trying to tear it apart.
Rin's eyeballs could not see anything clearly, but they could still determine what was happening through their sense of touch.
Most of the transporters felt intense pain. Even though they were covered in armour, their bodies were instantly flattened by the violent impact. They must have hit the cliff.
Some of the transporters were at higher altitudes. They did not crash into the wall but were thrown into the air by the tsunami. After tumbling in the air for a while, they fell heavily onto the ground. The intense pain made Lin realize that they had been reduced to a pile of rotten meat.
All of this only lasted for an instant. Soon, the tsunami that hit the land lost its momentum and began to recede into the sea. Leviathan could feel the current that was rushing up rapidly retreating. Soon, the sea and land returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
Leviathan was still stuck to the cliff. The tentacles and hooks had saved it, but the same could not be said for the transporters …
None of the transporters that hit the cliff survived. Even if some of their cells were still alive, they were no longer of any use.
Although the strange fireballs did not appear here, the temperature of the water was coming from afar. Those cells would soon be killed by the high temperature.
Their only hope was on land …
Some of the transporters that were thrown on land by the tsunami survived. They were all near the edge of the cliff. There were only … 31 of them.
Only 31 of them survived? What a terrible disaster. 100 million years of nutrients had gone up in smoke just like that.
Dan Lin had survived. She had perfectly preserved all the information of her evolution and the information of the other creatures. As long as she continued living, she would be resurrected very soon!
Right now, the crisis had yet to subside. Lin had to act as soon as possible. The temperature of the sea was still rising. Even the Leviathan found it difficult to resist the high temperature. Lin had to get the Leviathan to climb up the cliff.
Like crawling on land, the Leviathan used the suction cups of its tentacles to cling tightly to the cliff, but this was not enough to pull its three-meter-long body out of the water.
Lin then turned the barbs that were previously used for fixing the Leviathan into six movable barbed legs. Lin constructed a structure similar to a hydraulic system inside. The force generated by the barbed legs could propel the Leviathan on land.
With these new abilities, Leviathan was already able to climb up the cliff.
The transporters on land were now covered in armor. Their original eyeballs were also covered, so they could not see anything. If Lin wanted to create more eyeballs, she was afraid that the water inside would leak out. So, she could only wait for the Leviathan to reach land to confirm their condition.
Lin knew that she had to hurry, but it was not easy for the Leviathan to drag its three-meter-long body up such a high cliff. Although Lin had thought of removing some of its organs or water, she did not know what would happen on land. So, it was better to keep them.
Fortunately, the Leviathan had enough nutrients. Because it could perfectly and timely repair the damaged cells during movement and replenish nutrients, Lin did not feel 'tired'. Sooner or later, the Leviathan would be able to climb up the cliff.
But the problem was … the Leviathan was not the only one climbing up.
The Leviathan had now climbed up more than 30%. Lin assembled a few eyeball tentacles on the Leviathan's back to observe the surroundings. She saw some creatures crawling out of the sea …
Bloon Scorpions.
Strange, why did they come out of the sea? Could it be that they had followed the tsunami here? Or were there Bloon Scorpions at the bottom of the sea? They could not stand the rising water temperature and crawled out?
Regardless of the reason, they were troublesome.
The Bloondu scorpions also had barbs on their limbs. They could obviously support themselves by climbing up the cliff. Although they did not have the consciousness to attack now, if they found that there was no danger at the top, the first thing they would do was to look for food to replenish the energy they had expended during the disaster.
There might be some fish on land that were washed up by the tsunami, but the most obvious food source was Lin's transporter.
Lin could not let them reach land first.
Was this the so-called 'race'? What an interesting word.
The Leviathan tried to climb up the cliff, but its body was heavy. A few Bloondo scorpions were already a few meters below the Leviathan. When they saw the Leviathan above them, they raised their hook-like tail and huge pincers and made an attacking posture.
They had not even reached land and they were already looking for food?
Fire!
Lin fired a bomb from behind the Leviathan and hit the scorpion that was raising its pincers and swinging its tail. Several of the scorpion's eyeballs were splashed with strong acid. The intense pain caused it to loosen its grip on the rock and fall from the cliff back into the warm sea.
Maybe it would never come back up, but now was not the time to celebrate.
Beside the fallen Bloon Scorpion, there were three other scorpions. They did not seem to know why their companion fell. They continued to climb in the direction of the Leviathan and raised their tails to attack.
Creatures with small brains were troublesome … If it was a shark, the death of one would cause the rest to run away.
Once again, Lin pushed the grenades into the water spout and fired three consecutive grenades at each of the scorpions.
All three hits were perfect. Although the Bloon Scorpions had small brains, they reacted quickly. One of them blocked the bombs with its pincers, while the other two fell like their 'predecessors'.
After the scorpion that blocked the bombs felt the pain, it changed direction and crawled away. It seemed that only by learning could they understand the danger.
Although it was a small victory, there were still some scorpions around that had surpassed the Leviathan. Most of them were far away, so Lin could not hit them.
Lin Sanjiu had no choice but to continue climbing. She hoped that they would be attracted by the other dead fish and would not attack the transporter.
Now the Leviathan's progress was … 50%. Lin saw that a few scorpions had climbed up to land. Not only the scorpions, but some trilobites also climbed up from the sea. These trilobites were a kind of mini type, only about ten centimeters long. They crawled quite fast, and it didn't take long for them to catch up with the Leviathan.
Was it better to be light on land?
However, compared to the scorpions, Lin was more worried about whether there would be another fireball, tsunami, or other phenomena. But it was very peaceful here. Nothing happened.
However, just as Lin was thinking this, a few circular shadows suddenly appeared in the air.
Fireball? No …
The few floating things slowly approached the cliff where the Leviathan and the scorpions were. These were the creatures that Lin had seen before, the jellyfish that could float in the air!
It was hard to say whether they were jellyfish or not, but they looked very similar.
Each jellyfish was about one meter in diameter. Although they had no eyes, they seemed to be observing Lin and the other creatures that were climbing up the cliff. It was also the first time Lin had observed these jellyfish so closely. She noticed that there were some 'blowhole' around the jellyfish, which seemed to be their way of moving.
After the jellyfish wandered in the air for a while, they finally set their target on the small trilobites.
Since the jellyfish could float in the air, their bodies must be very light. They knew that they could not beat the Leviathan or the Bloon Scorpions, but the trilobites were very small and easy for them to bully.
The jellyfish relied on the tentacles under their bodies to catch the trilobites and poison them to death. This was very similar to the jellyfish in the water. Lin noticed that there was a small trilobite not far behind the Leviathan, and a jellyfish was also approaching it.
This was a good opportunity …
When the jellyfish approached, Lin sent a special combination of tentacles into the blowhole. The tentacles were several meters long. They were very thin but very flexible. At the end of the tentacles were a large number of barbed spikes. Lin called them 'Hook Spikes'.
Shoot!
When the jellyfish came within shooting range, Lin suddenly shot the Hook Spikes. The Hook Spikes pierced the jellyfish's balloon filled with air and firmly hooked inside.
Caught! Now she could study how it floated in the air!
But just as Lin was feeling happy, the blowhole around the jellyfish suddenly trembled, as if it was sucking in a lot of air. At the same time, the jellyfish swelled with the air, and finally …
Slap!
The jellyfish exploded.
