章節 8: Life in its all weirdness
The life in Cambrian was a weird thing true ecosystems just started to form everything was so primitive yet so unique The Anomalocaris a relative shrimps you would never though become an apex predator the weird looking five eyed Opabinia which even I couldn't make a sense of the ancestors of all vertebrates the Haikouichthys the world first herbivorous tanks trilobites all were doing their best to survive and adapt in this ever continuing game of life
Anomalocaris and Trilobites in particular were evolving faster compared to others due to their unique relationship triggering an evolutionary arms race trilobites started to develop harder more extensive armor and turned themselves poisonous while the apex shrimp evolved immunity stronger appendage muscles and jaws the struggle was pushing their adaptational speed over the generations as evolution always did their struggles were interesting to say the least
when it comes to myself I was some kind of weird abomination looking some kind of unnatural hybrid between a crustacean a fish and a reptile had carapace like armor a fish like body with my tail splitting into two sections to the end with scale like outer ridges in my carapace which was also bio metallic and crystalline in its nature
my jaw was a cross between a crocodile an Anomalocaris and a scorpion my main jaw parts were covered in bony bio metallic carapace plates with the outer section being attached to the outer limb mandible like those of yautja these mandibles were made of sections and internal structures like that of a cross between a terrestrial vertebrate muscle limb system and spiders hydraulic movement limbs each one more akin to a scythe and blade with bio metallic tissue for its weaponization rather than a true limb though their flexibility and precision would not be any lacking to that of a limb
in all honesty life was both boring and fascinating living as long as me and being allowed to witness evolution is a special privilege while also maddening for the sheer time needed to endure for any normal human though my mind is not normal at this point either whether from alterations to my mind from the outsider entity that dumped me here or through my continuous genetic augmentations done to myself my brain and consciousness in anything but a mere human sure I can imitate them even perfectly interact with them do to my previous experiences from my past life but If I ever tried to truly converse with them with all my capability and intellectual capabilities it is more than likely just sheer information sharing capacity the mental capabilities of mine along with doing all these conversations psionically would leave them in a vegetative state not from just sheer load of data and complexity but the scale of alien perspective I have become to symbolize
Is this what eldritch entities feel when trying to interact with mere newly evolved sentient species???? bothersome truly I started to sympathize with the eldritch rather than my own kin ohhhhh the irony
