4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

v6 Chapter 218: Ecology in metal

"Hide! Hide! You must hide!"

Storm-like arrows rained in the tunnel, all the crystal larvae hid under the protruding metal blocks, and those who did not hide had become the pierced bodies floating in the air.

It seems that this situation should be over.

But these crystallizers don't know how to end, so Lin believes that spies must play an ‘beginning’.

‘Hey! ’

The sound of the sharp object was simulated by Lin.

Along with the simulated sound, a sharp thorn flew out and pierced the huge block-shaped object that was in the tunnel.

This is the attack that Lin launched. The hole in the head of the crystal scorpion spy can be used to launch objects like other crystal larvae.

The square object that was stabbed swayed. It continued to stop the action of acupuncture around it, and the crystal stalk that was originally hit only to hide was also temporarily rested.

During this short break, they acted quickly. They learned the movements before the Lin spies. The crystal plucked the thorns inserted in the cracks in the surrounding metal and inserted them on their heads. Aim at that square and shot it.

At this moment, all the thorns returned to the square, and the part where the square was pierced also spewed a lot of liquid.

Is this... blood?

The punctured part of the cube sprinkled a large amount of liquid, because it was in the void, and the liquid floated in the air, filling the entire tunnel.

The crystal larvae seemed to be very excited, and they jumped up, grabbed the liquid and swallowed it in.

"This is a wonderful food." And after giggling, spoke to the spy. It also jumped on to catch those liquids.

After eating the sputtered liquid. The crystal larvae quickly encircled the square. The square seems to have no more action, and soon it is ruined by a large number of crystal larvae.

The holes in the heads of these crystallizers can be used not only to launch objects, but also to be used as mouthpieces, and this square seems to be a favorite food.

After eating, the crystal reptiles quickly ran back to their original place, and they pulled on the things they had dragged before they began to move.

And giggling. Also returned to the spy's side.

"Too much, we will praise you, is the ah from the 'the place' so smart?" Giggle expressed his thoughts on the spy with excitement.

Lin feels very strange, they can't think of it?

Previously, the spy was picking up a thorn attack from that square and successfully pierced the square. At this time, the crystal reptiles reacted and smashed the thorns to attack.

They used to attack with metal cracks, but they didn’t know how to take thorns...

The thoughts of these creatures are wonderful.

Lin followed the giggles and talked to it about some of the things here. Including the creature that was just like a square with a thorn.

That creature can be called a thorn brick, which seems to be a common creature here. The crystal larvae and the thorn bricks are in a wonderful relationship, and they are also predators and prey.

The thorn bricks will eat crystal larvae, and the crystal larvae will also eat thorn bricks. However, usually the crystal larvae are usually eaten without preparation. As it is now, the crystal larva is shot a lot before winning.

Although not studied in detail, Lin feels that the thorn brick is also a creature similar to a crystal larva. The body is a cryogenic liquid, wrapped in a tough skin.

In addition, the giggles also introduced many of the creatures here to Lin.

Under the giggling, Lin found that there is an extremely rich biological ecology in this place, rather than a virtual garbage area that was previously considered by the virtual people.

There are a variety of creatures living here, including the liquid creatures that Lin first saw, mimetic creatures, and thorn bricks, etc. These creatures are residents here, and there are quite a few species.

However, it can be roughly divided into three types, one is ‘vegetarian’. The vegetarians walk through the metal debris piles and gaps, looking for any resources that can be absorbed. The metal fragments here seem to have many absorbable ingredients.

There is also a 'meat eater', a meat eater who hunts other creatures, and they also prey on each other.

The third type is 'not eating people'. This seems to be a very wonderful creature. According to the giggling, the 'non-eater' creatures never go looking for food, they often stay in one place and rarely move. And don't do anything special, they may have any special way of ingesting energy.

And this creature is usually quite strong and not easily preyed by other creatures.

These creatures seem to have lived here for a long time, and they have reached a balanced relationship with each other, and many of them have been transformed into various forms according to the environment here.

However, it is more than just this metal group. Other metal groups seem to have living creatures. The 'the place' that is giggling is a metal group far away from here. There seems to be a crystal scorpion living there, and the crystal scorpion here. Keep a certain connection.

But that was a long time ago. They haven't been in contact for a long time, so when the spy appeared, they clamored that Lynn came from there.

What makes Lin interesting is that these crystallizers also seem to like to study the creatures here. Some of them are ‘investigators’ who are responsible for observing the surrounding creatures.

Crystal larvae, the most special kind of creatures living here, have established a country of their own in this huge metal group floating in the void.

And this country has now been revealed in front of Lynn.

After the tunnel reached the end, Lin saw a vast space, which has a height of about two meters, a width of more than one meter, and the length has been extended for several tens of meters. For the crystallizer, it is a huge The place.

On the walls on both sides, countless 'buildings' stand out, they look like a lot of metal fragments, usually from 10 cm to 50 cm, and occasionally between them There was a 'bridge' connected to the other wall, and the crystal larvae came in and out of these buildings. Lynn also found that many crystal larks were flying around like mechanical things.

There is no building on the ground, the ground is completely flat, but not smooth, and a large number of iron pieces with many small holes are covered with the ground, which makes the floor look very spacious.

Although it is a void here, the creatures here also have the concept of 'ground' and 'sky'. Usually the outer void can be counted as 'sky', and the closer to the depth of the metal group, the closer it is to the 'ground'.

The buildings here are also built in this way, with the tops all facing the direction of the void.

In addition to the building, Lynn saw that there are many passages on the walls of this place. They are called clovering as 'transportation passages'. The tunnels are all dug out by the crystal ducks. They pass through the tunnel to reach every part of the metal cluster, and then Bring useful things here, and they will go hunting through these places.

"This is our country." Giggle said to the spy: "In addition to this, there are a few, we live here very well, very comfortable."

The crystal reptiles who jumped around the building found the crystallized team of the tunnel and immediately jumped to this place.

These creatures are very good at moving in the void, they basically rely on jumping and jumping, but Lynn also found that some crystallizers actually flew over a small machine.

These machines are constructed like a ball, and then there are two long legs on both sides. The ball has some structure similar to the lever. The crystal scorpion squats on the ball and operates the upper lever from a distance. Jumped over.

Lynn feels wonderful, they can make this kind of thing...

The crystallizers that came together were very interested in the things that the team carried them back. They quickly gathered around the things that were carried back, and they all collided with each other and might be asking what they were saying.

But there are also some crystallizers gathered next to the spies, who are curious about the spy's 'unfamiliar' creature.

"It is from that place."

The giggles show the origin of the spy for each crystallore.

Lin found that the communication system of the crystal scorpion is very fun, because in the void, they can't talk to a large number of similar ones at a time, so when the giggling tells the first lyon message, it will immediately tell the companion next to it, then these The companion also told more companions that this matter quickly spread between them.

After all the crystal larvaes knew it, they put together another action to represent Lin’s surprise from ‘that place’.

Crystal owls also have some action language, but not many, most of the time they communicate through vibration.

After some understanding of each other, these crystallizers also ran to the back of Lin, they all went to observe the virtual items brought back.

Moreover, although they are very interested, they don't seem to care much about these things. After watching a group of crystal larks for a while, they begin to dismantle those things, and they break down the objects of the imaginary people little by little. Come, what makes Lin feel amazing is that they use a very 'moderate' dismantling method, that is, a structure such as a screw that slowly unscrews those things, slowly decomposing little by little, It is like a skilled virtual engineer.

They can understand the structure of these things so quickly, and the learning ability of the crystal larvae should be quite strong.

After disassembling the objects, they quickly took the disassembled parts back.

The spy also followed the giggles and the team, drifting to the kingdom of the crystal squid... (To be continued, please search for astronomical literature, the novel is better updated faster!
