After having a definite target, one of the gourds at the tail of the titanium snail carefully left the area covered by the submarine curtain.

When moving in the water, it always moves close to the seabed, following the trajectory of the current as much as possible, so that even a submarine with military sonar cannot catch the hoist as an active entity in the water.

Whether it will be discovered by the existence of something that I don't know what it is, Huo Gu himself has no bottom, this is already the degree to which it can be as hidden as possible.

In this way, under the impetus of the stream, the hoist came to a place one nautical mile away from the position of the titanium snail, which was the edge of the titanium snail's life field, and further forward, Huo Gu could not issue instructions to the houl.

The area where Hu came was a sandy area that existed on the bottom of the sea, and there were no large rocks in sight, which was the result of repeated erosion by the currents of the seabed, and it would take a long time for the planet to have the kind of fine sand like the one on the Earth's beaches.

At the beginning of the division, the cells on the gourd's body divided under the command of Hogu, and the number changed from one to two.

The original gourd sank to the sand after splitting, in order to minimize the disturbance of the current to the individual position of the gourd, and the gourd covered with carbon nanofibers did not need to worry, as the coarse sand on the seabed would scratch the epidermis.

The gourd swings its fins on both sides, and uses the sand to bury itself and hide it.

The splintered hull continued to set off for further afield.

During this period, when encountering an undersea volcano or island, it will choose to deflect slightly in the direction, and it is not necessarily a straight line as a whole, but no matter how it changes, it will always be 'away from the hidden position of the titanium snail'.

In this way, a considerable amount of time has passed, and it is not clear how long it has been, but it feels like this, at this time, this chain of command has extended for hundreds of nautical miles, and the phenomenon of command delay has become more and more serious.

"That's about the distance...... At this distance, even if a human satellite is dispatched, it is absolutely impossible to find me here without understanding the life field. ”

That being said, Hogu still extended the distance by more than a hundred nautical miles out of caution......

The farthest specimen no longer splits in the same way as the previous specimens, but instead alters its gene expression sequence at Hogu's command.

The hoist sank to the bottom of the sea, a rocky area full of rubble, and not far from the coastline of the original volcanic island.

The gourd that sank to the bottom of the lake no longer retains the shape of a gourd, it has become a ball of flesh, and it is still expanding and pulsing, like an independent heart.

The sphere grew larger and larger, and the inside of the sphere was no longer filled with solids, but a liquid environment, and a small billet could be faintly seen from the outside of the membrane in the center of the sphere.

In order to maintain its own strength, the gradually expanding sphere feels that it is thickening its own structure, and the embryo in the sphere completes the shaping of its own shape and the development of its internal organs in a fairly stable environment.

Finally, the fully developed creature inside used its titanium fangs to puncture the sphere from the inside out.

The creature stretches its body, and something that is both a creature and not a creature appears at the bottom of the sea.

It is a large life form similar to a small mountain pack, with a radius of ten meters at the bottom and a height of fourteen meters, with six huge mouths at the bottom sticking to the seabed, and a huge mouth at the top, with many tiny holes on its cone and rows of titanium spikes.

The location of the core sentient cells was buried in the ground, and Hogu had not thought about allowing such a large man to move through the water at the beginning of the design.

The titanium skeleton provides sufficient strength to resist the pressure of the seabed, and the epidermis is a composite epidermis composed of multiple layers of carbon nanofibers and proteins, and titanium scale armor is attached to the outermost side.

The monstrous thing stirred up its body at the command, and the large mouth at the top frantically inhaled the seawater, and then the water would be expelled from the six mouths at the bottom.

In just one simple process, a large amount of protein is collected.

The rhizomes begin to grow from the base of this monster, and these rhizomes are also different from those of the volcanic island, there are no rhizomes like the taproot, all of them are of uniform thickness, and they are intertwined with each other to cover the bottom of the sea in a reticulated structure.

If you zoom in to the point where you can observe the cellular structure, you can see that these rhizomes are made up of countless smaller rhizomes, the core of which is carbon nanotubes, and all of them have different resource phases, which means that the newly designed rhizome system can handle all types of resources while increasing its strength.

Most importantly, these rhizomes are constantly producing oxygen, collecting volcanic heat or water temperature, and reacting with the acids and alkalis in the water.

This is designed to prevent the presence of microorganisms from attacking the rhizome system.

High concentrations of oxygen can destroy cell membranes, and in this era of universal anaerobic microorganisms, it is definitely a powerful killer, and the main thing is that it is very easy to make, and the atmosphere is full of carbon dioxide.

Microorganisms killed by oxygen precipitate downwards and are then collected by the rhizome system.

Of course, this is a secondary function, and its main function is to absorb compounds in the area covered and transport them to the cone-shaped organisms, and the two sides are mutually reinforcing.

Fed with the proteins of the cone-shaped organisms, the extended rhizome system grows all the way, covering a six-kilometer radius of water with the cone-shaped organisms as the core.

During this period, the cone creatures also used the remaining organic materials to make a large number of gourds, and under the command of Hogu, the gourds would go to the edge of the life field, where they would 'bury' themselves and transform into cone-shaped creatures.

In this condition, the covered area expands geometrically, and if a volcano is encountered, the rhizome system will not let go, and the entire area will be covered except for places with ultra-high temperatures, such as craters.

Hogu was designed with sustainability in mind, and if it was too reckless, the result would probably be that the planet was still in its infancy and would die prematurely, and it didn't want to see that happen.

As a paleontologist, learning to respect them is the most basic ethical principle.

The metabolism of the rhizome system is faster than that of the previous generation, and the lifespan of a single cell is very short, and after cell death, it will gradually accumulate to form organic substances such as sludge, which is an extremely nutritious delicacy for microorganisms.

When this coverage area swelled to more than two hundred nautical miles, it finally attracted the attention of the unknown existence again.
