Chapter 35—The Lost Moss

"Sky, water."

At the entrance to the cave at the base, Leviathan looks at the sky with the brain worm, and the brain worm expresses its thoughts with a simple voice.

This whole body is a small creature of the brain. After staying here for a long time, Lin felt that it had no harm, so now I can let it move freely.

Yes, it’s going to rain in the sky.........

The word that the brainworm said just now is the meaning of rain.

There are huge black clouds on the top of the twisted jungle. This place doesn't actually rain very much. Every time it rains, it is quite huge. The limbs between the jungles are busy, mostly looking for places. Hiding, but some are specifically in the rain.

For example, bark 蠊.

The bark is a kind of cockroach, it is huge, the body color is exactly the same as the bark, but Lin can recognize it, only a few giant veins fly from the forest, when they fly over a trunk, a piece The 'bark' suddenly moved, and it stretched out the forelimbs with serrations and barbs, and instantly caught a cockroach.

Although it is about the same size as the bark, it is almost impossible to resist and can only be eaten slowly.

"Hey, food, delicious."

The brain worm also saw this scene of hunting and expressed its feelings.

"Bark 蠊?"

Leviathan also sent a word to the brain worm.

After hearing the brain worm, a simple word was issued: "Difficult to eat."

Well, the simple understanding is that the brainworm says that it is delicious, the bark is difficult to eat, the concept of 'good' and 'difficult' is also issued by the brainworm. Lin found that it has a very interesting character, clearly It is a food that cells in the body can normally absorb. There is not much difference in nutrients, but the brain worms like some foods, but they don't like them very much.

After research, Lin found that brain worms eat very slowly for foods that they don't like, with unpleasant emotions and a special cry, and the representative of this call is 'difficult', 'good 'On the contrary, when eating good things, it will eat very quickly and very happy.

This is a very interesting phenomenon. Lin does not know how it is produced. This brainworm has great research value.

"Water, tumbling, cave."

Seeing that heavy rain is coming, the brain worm twisted the body of the meat and rolled back into the cave of the base.

This creature is really interesting. Lynn often exchanges information with it. Right, there seems to be a word to describe this move: ‘chat’.

‘Talk’ seems to understand, but what about ‘天’? This word is really strange enough.

It’s going to rain now, and Lin usually doesn’t shelter from the rain. Especially Liviathan is not necessary. Lin is more concerned about the problem of this jungle.

There are fewer and fewer mosses in the glittering woodlands, and many moss-eating creatures have left the woodland. In recent days and nights, Lynne has been paying attention to how these mosses have become less.

Moss seems to be slowly withering, chapped, and then dying. They are not short of water, and they still glow at night. Why?

Thinking, Leviathan stood up, crossed the river and walked over to the glittering woodland.

It is now a bit like the darkness of the original, only sporadic moss grows on the ground, in addition to large black mud, and some cracked bark and stones.

On the contrary, it is the darkness of the original, because the spread of the green carpet has become brighter, but Lin is more concerned about the reason for this phenomenon of flashing woodland.

Not only the moss, but the twisted trees on the glittering woodland also began to have some strange phenomena. They started to peel off. Although they didn’t drop much, each piece of the fallen skin had a common point. They were all very dry, like water. Was taken away.

Leviathan walked up to a handful of moss and extended his tentacles to dig it up.

Lynn decided to bring the moss back to the study to see why they died.

There was a thunder in the air, and Leviathan quickly walked back into the cave of the base...

Lin found that the brain worm did not enter at the entrance to the hole. As soon as she saw Leviathan, she said: "The leader, wood, moss, chapped, and died."

It was to tell Leviathan that both the moss and the wood died after the chapped, but Lin did not pay attention to it now, but took the moss to the depths of the cave, when the entrance to the cave was sealed.

'Plastic doorman' is a kind of arms made by Lin. They will mix the soil and a shell material on a rainy day to form a watertight wall to seal the hole to prevent rain from entering the base. Otherwise, it may be produced. The danger of collapse.

The brain worm moved to follow Leviathan and went deep into the cave. It seemed to be curious, and Lin took the moss to do something.

Unfortunately, it is invisible.

Lin put the moss into a decomposing sac, and then cut some small wounds on the surface of the moss, let the miniature scouts enter the moss to study, and also have eyeballs outside the moss to observe its appearance changes.

Plant cells are relatively simple and have few species, so they are well judged.

Lin found that among the mossy cells, there are some strange creatures, some filamentous creatures, which are composed of multiple cells that are branched into a string, and the structure is special. Lin seems to have never seen such a form.

Lin conducted some observational studies on them.

They destroy the cell structure of the moss, kill the mossy cells, produce toxins, and eventually erode the entire moss and turn it into a powder.

When the moss dies, they grow a large number of special capsules, which seem to be similar to seeds. These capsules are very light and will drift with the wind, which seems to breed.

Was it this thing to kill the moss? In other words, the moss in the flash woodland is dead because of this stuff.

But where did they come from? The previous moss was not a problem.

Is it...

Lin thought of the fungi that were planted on the wood in the crystallographic wormholes, and their structures seemed to be very similar to those that killed the moss.

But Lin didn't bring the fungus out there, and the whole cave was blown up. The things inside are unlikely to come out...

When Lin was thinking, it heard the thunder outside the base again, and at the same time, the sound of the brain worm also rang: "Lightning, fungus, cracked wood, moving, water, Farr, death."

‘Far’ is a new pronunciation, a word that Lin doesn’t understand.

Just when Lin had some doubts, there was a huge roar outside the cave. It was not lightning, but the sound of something huge. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe, reward, your support is my greatest motivation.)
