章節 128: Chapter 127
A group of headworms, huh? The Leviathan sped up and flew to the canopy of the nearest twisted tree.
The growth of twisted trees was very strange. When they grew to a certain height, usually more than 30 meters, they would begin to rotate and grow, forming a wide disc with a diameter of more than 10 meters. This disc formed by the trunk was the 'crown' of a twisted tree. It was usually full of leaves and had a very strong load capacity. It could easily bear the weight of a Leviathan.
Leviathan retracted its wings and walked to the edge of the canopy to observe below. The creatures on the headworm's painting were wandering around on the ground, as if searching for prey.
They looked like cockroaches with their upper bodies standing up, about 1 meter long, which felt quite small. Moreover, there were only 5 of them, so Lin estimated that the headworm's group wasn't very large.
Lin curled up the headworm's tentacles to let it see these creatures.
[Confirm scent of group, begin communication] The headworm became excited when it saw this and let out a very sharp cry. Lin had never heard of this kind of cry before, so it was probably used to communicate with its own kind.
However, the 'same kind' didn't react at all. They were still doing the same thing as before under the canopy, completely oblivious to the headworm's cry.
The headworm's cry continued for a while, but the other headworms below didn't look at it at all and ran away after a while.
Could it be that the headworm mistook its own kind? That didn't seem very likely.
[Communication failed] the headworm's mood became dejected: [The reason, there are other headworms. Causing a conflict of information, in two messages. The group will prioritize the new headworm]
Lin could sense that the headworm's' dejection 'was very strong, and this emotion would occasionally cause it to act strangely, such as rolling around. However, the headworm didn't do that this time, because Lin used her tentacles to hold it down.
However, their group seemed to be a bit strange, when there were two headworms. They prioritized the new one? Generally speaking, didn't the old one have more knowledge?
[Looking for a new headworm, trying to return to the group. Lin, do you want to join us?] The headworm's dejection slowly disappeared. Lin noticed that no matter how heavy its emotions were, it would quickly change.
"Let's go together." Leviathan put the Brainworm back on its back. Then it spread its wings again and flew into the sky above the forest. Lin was about to ask where the territory of the headworms was, but at that moment, she saw that the headworms in the forest were heading towards a few protruding rocky mountains in the distance.
Running, the Leviathan immediately flew in the direction of those rocky mountains.
Those rocky mountains were estimated to be more than 20 meters high. It was more than ten meters wide and seemed to be a mixture of soil and rocks. There were some small holes with a diameter of about half a meter below.
Three of these rocky mountains were located in a small clearing among the twisted trees. Lin could see the Overmind Worms and other groups moving in and out of the area.
Sure enough, it wasn't a very large community, but it might have been very large in the past. After all, they had defeated the Aztecs. But because of what had happened. Was that why it was so small? Or was it just a sub-base?
"A sticky rock object has been discovered in our territory. It is close to the Empress. We have received information."
The Overmind Worms became excited after seeing these rocky mountains. The Leviathan landed beside one of the rocky mountains. As soon as the Leviathan touched the ground, a large number of worms suddenly rushed out from the rocky mountain and surrounded the Leviathan.
Lin noticed that they were all in the same form. Their upper bodies were erect, their forelimbs were blade-like and covered with small barbs, and they moved with four appendages. These creatures were called 'infantry' by the Overmind Worms. It seemed to be a very common troop type used for hunting.
These 'infantry' seemed to treat the Leviathan as an enemy. They constantly waved their forelimbs, preparing to surround and attack.
"The response of the community is intense. They are sending out a peace signal. They are not enemies."
Lin smelled a strong odor released by the Overmind Worms. All the infantry began to slowly retreat a certain distance after sensing the odor and lowered their forelimbs, as if they had lost the will to fight.
So that's how it is … Lin felt that this phenomenon was very interesting. Even among the same species, there were so many complicated ways of communication? Lin's own species was' Lin ', so Lin had never really communicated with them until she met the Overmind Worms.
"Identification complete. Initiating call for new Overmind Worm – Moketu." Then, the Overmind Worms let out the same sharp voice as before. After a while, a white ball of flesh appeared at the entrance of the rocky mountain.
Was this the new Overmind Worm that the Overmind Worms called 'Moketu'?
'Moketu' was the Overmind Worms' special name for it. It was a very strange way of calling it, as if it was referring to a specific individual, and not a specific creature or race.
The Overmind Worms looked at Moketu and produced a very strange mixture of emotions. There seemed to be anger, happiness, excitement, and various other emotions.
For every emotion of a creature, the organs in its body would produce some liquid substance corresponding to the emotion. Lin's sense of smell could smell this substance, and based on the intensity of the substance, she could determine whether the creature's emotion was heavy or not. However, it was the first time Lin had seen so many emotions at once.
The new Overmind Worm 'Moketu' also had a feeling of confusion and surprise as it looked at the Leviathan and the Overmind Worms on its back.
"Old Overmind Worm, Maya."
Muketu uttered a few words with complicated emotions.
Lin had seen some creatures' voices change greatly when their emotions fluctuated, but the Overmind Worms did not. They almost always had the same tone, but their thoughts were actually quite rich in emotions.
Lin's Overmind Worm seemed to be called 'Maya'. It seemed like every Overmind Worm had a special name.
"Moketu." The Overmind Worm rolled down from the Leviathan's back and landed in front of the Leviathan. It said to Moketu: "Lin, there is no threat. Bring me here to see the race."
"I've never seen such a wondrous creature." Moketu looked at the Leviathan in confusion, then turned his attention to the Overmind Worm and rolled in front of it.
Did they all roll like this?
Right now, both of them were staring at each other, but neither of them made a sound.
"Competition, leader."
After looking at each other for a while, the Overmind Worm and Moketu said the same thing at the same time.
"Competition?" Lin asked the Overmind Worm.
The Overmind Worm said: "Within the race, there can only be one Overmind Worm. If there is more than one, then there will be competition. The winner of the competition will rule the race, and the loser will leave the race."
