Chapter 315: Pushing the Food Chain Back
As the saying goes, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat dried shrimp, and dried shrimp can only eat silt algae or something.
Chu Yunsheng had to reverse this process if he wanted to escape the predicament at the bottom of the lake, return to the lake, and join the old purple stupid insects.
Now that he is at the bottom of the lake, the original advantages of the red beetle, except for the pincers, knife legs, and carapace, all other advantages are gone.
So here, he is a "small fish", and even a "small fish" is not counted, but only a "shrimp"!
And this is not a freshwater lake, but an inland lake that resembles seawater, but he doesn't know why it formed so deep underground, but that's not something he has to think about.
He can only survive if he stages the rebellious behavior of eating small fish and eating big fish with shrimp, otherwise he can only be trapped at the bottom of the lake for the rest of his life.
But in order to "push back" the creatures in the upper layers of the food chain in the giant lake, Chu Yunsheng must first learn their survival skills to accelerate his devouring evolution.
Choosing to start devouring from the lowest creatures, Chu Yunsheng first ruled out plants like algae and seaweed, not to mention that he didn't know if he could evolve the characteristics of plants, even if he could, those characteristics were not of much use to him at the moment.
His preferred targets are herbivorous lake-bottom creatures, which are at the bottom of the food chain and best suited to his sluggish status.
Chu Yunsheng's biological knowledge was pitiful, and after observing around the bones for a long time, he barely found some creatures similar to sea cucumbers, which gathered in the middle of the huge bones, standing like maces in the green algae plants, devouring algae or plankton or something.
They have a very prominent original and can change color!
In just a few minutes, they have changed several colors.
Even if Chu Yunsheng was sure that they were the devouring targets of the first stage of the backward food chain, this was the skill he needed the most right now.
Many places at the bottom of the lake are green, green and beautiful, very fantastical and beautiful, and his original red carapace "looks very dazzling under the light of these luminous plants."
Therefore, a perfect disguise can greatly facilitate his stealth operations.
Chu Yunsheng cautiously approached them step by step, he was a special intruder, he did not have the unique smell of their natural enemies, until he sneaked behind one of the bones closest to them with a very slight movement, these sea cucumber-like creatures were still unaware.
There was only a distance of one meter, Chu Yunsheng made a visual inspection, and at this distance, "He only needs to recuperate for a while before he can carry out an explosive attack."
Of course, under the huge water pressure, the body consumed by the sudden explosion attack is also very "shocking".
Chu Yunsheng opened his pincers slightly, there were at least five similar creatures in front of him, he only wanted to be able to hunt two, his agility had already been greatly reduced under the water pressure, so he didn't dare to be greedy.
Turnip!
Driving the flow of water" Chu Yunsheng kicked up the four knife legs with all his strength, and pounced fiercely at the sea cucumber-like creature and the five "maces" like a vicious wolf.
Chu Yunsheng, who was originally full of confidence, finally found that his speed was still too slow, "I only had time to clamp one, and the other four reacted in the fastest time, spraying a cloud of disgusting things like internal organs at him, and using the reverse thrust, towards the depths of the lake, snatching the way and escaping."
Deep at the bottom of the lake, Chu Yunsheng didn't dare to pursue, "Besides, he can't chase him, he climbs too slowly."
He swallowed the first "mace", along with those "internal organs", and then quietly lay in the algae bushes.
One is to wait for the change in the well*, and the other is to simply "wait for the rabbit" to get up, this kind of algae and plankton are very numerous, and he guesses that there should be other weak creatures to come to find food.
After waiting for a long time, there were many strange creatures on the bottom of the lake coming and going, big ones, Chu Yunsheng didn't dare to provoke "Small people, Chu Yunsheng can sneak attack a few of them, and he will never let them go."
"He felt like he had devoured a lot of small creatures, but the evolutionary sensation like a transparent cover above his head had not moved.
Chu Yunsheng, who was extremely depressed, couldn't bear it anymore after continuing to lurk for about a few hours.
Disappointed, he crawled out of the algae and prepared to return to the head of the giant skeleton to come up with another way to devour it, as if the ability to devour it was unreliable.
But just as he had just crawled out of the algae bushes, he suddenly felt something on his body recede like a tide, and then something was secreted and spread all over his body. He looked at his pincers again, and some of them had turned as grayish white as the bones, like one of the bones.
However, this discoloration is not complete, and there are still many places that still retain the bright red color characteristic of red beetles.
Chu Yun sneered for a moment, and hurriedly retreated into the green algae bushes, the feeling of dispersion and secretion came again, and this time, his pliers turned green!
It worked!?
Chu Yunsheng was overjoyed, and faintly thought that the first time he devoured the Green Wave Worm's ability was probably because the Green Wave Worm was countless levels higher than him, and just one of them could make him evolve a transparent body on his forehead that could emit red light waves.
But those creatures at the bottom of the lake were far below the life level of the Green Wave Worms, and he could only absorb their life characteristics by devouring their bodies in large quantities.
Therefore, Chu Yunsheng hurriedly hibernated in the algae bush again, motionless, the discoloration was not complete, and he had to continue to devour a large amount in order to achieve perfection.
However, now to be exact, he should not be called a red beetle, he should be called a "chameleon insect", Chu Yun crouched in the algae, thinking boredly.
Waiting for the rabbit is a long process, especially Chu Yunsheng needs a huge amount of accumulation, and this process is even longer.
A few hours later, Chu Yunsheng had to change places to lurk again, but he was always around the bones.
He didn't dare to climb far, only it was relatively safe here.
After a long time, Chu Yunsheng couldn't figure out how long it was, and it wasn't until the color change was completely successful that he crawled back into the skull of the skeleton and began to calculate the target of the next food chain.
Chu Yunsheng secretly said that he had to speed up, once the fire energy was consumed, the situation would be extremely bad.
The next target must be a creature that can quickly adapt to the water pressure at the bottom of the lake, "greatly increasing his speed of movement." After screening for a long time, Chu Yunsheng finally determined that it was the colorful jellyfish.
Actually, the best target to devour was those weird fish, but he didn't have the ability to catch them right now.
And the jellyfish can just provide him with this "step".
He once saw the introduction of jellyfish on the Science Channel of the Sunshine Age: "They have a gland in their body* that can release carbon monoxide, and release and produce this gas through guò to achieve the ups and downs and swimming of the body."
Whether it is the ability to control the lifting and lowering, or the ability to eject gas and then swim" is the ability that Chu Yunsheng must have in the second stage of the reverse thrust food chain, his insect body is not suitable for swimming, and the jellyfish is able to push his body through guò exhaust, which is more suitable for him!
There are many kinds of jellyfish at the bottom of the lake, the smallest one is only about a few centimeters according to Chu Yunsheng's eyesight, and the largest is even bigger than his insect body.
This kind of giant jellyfish, he didn't dare to provoke" His target is still those medium creatures.
Jellyfish are also omnivorous creatures, they are rats in the water and "eat everything, and of course animals are more interested in them."
Chu Yunsheng still didn't want to leave the huge skull, "Bao *......", he followed the skeleton corpse, wandering around, "tracking the jellyfish passing by", observing their preferences.
Eventually, he discovered something, the jellyfish here are fond of a leaf-like, slow-moving, plankton-feeding blue creature, and often attack them, using their tentacles to paralyze or even kill them, and then prey.
As a result, the tactics of "Chu Yunsheng, who entered the second stage of the reverse thrust battle at the bottom of the lake", also changed from "waiting for the rabbit" to "bait and trap".
It's not a stretch to collect leafy blue creatures "Sluggish to sluggish, coupled with his color-changing camouflage" This creature around the skeleton was caught by him!
Chu Yunsheng is a human being or an insect "One of the biggest differences between humans and animals is that humans are good at using tools, and he is no exception.
Although the red beetle's pincers were a little clumsy, he patiently used them to "get a large amount of algae, and bound and wrapped the living leaf-like creatures, camouflaging them in front of the skull of the giant skeleton" as a patch of algae.
Then he just sat back and waited for the jellyfish to take the bait," he didn't believe in so many leafy blue creatures, "The jellyfish were not moved!"
As expected, it didn't take long for several jellyfish piled up to swim alertly, and they were "testing back and forth, very carefully."
Chu Yunsheng patiently shrank in the skull, the color on the carapace of his body gradually fused with the gray-white skull, motionless, waiting for them to take the bait.
After a long time, almost no danger was found, and several jellyfish impatiently swam up with umbrella-like bodies, stretched out their tentacles and began to disintegrate their prey. , Chu Yunsheng endured for a while, "I must wait for the jellyfish to completely relax their vigilance" before he can do it, this creature has a lot of eyes, and the field of vision covers Xiaoya, and none of them are missed.
Moreover, the speed of the jellyfish was faster than Chu Yunsheng's, so he gave up the plan of using pliers to catch it, and instead used the knife leg to stab in order to hit with one blow.
The pressure on the legs, coupled with the low resistance of the knife legs, "deliberately makes it much faster than pliers."
One, two, three............ Chu Yunsheng didn't know how many colorful jellyfish he had eaten, and the mechanical, long repetition "made him a little bored."
Scold!
He pierced a slightly larger jellyfish, and was about to swallow it when a stream of water came from behind the skull.
Chu Yunsheng was taken aback, this kind of movement was not something that a small creature could toss.
He hurriedly burrowed back into the skull, only to see a large jellyfish shaped like a cube rushing up at a very fast speed.
It was a jellyfish that was even bigger than him, with countless tentacles, floating along the current, gradually clinging to the skull.
Chu Yunsheng's heart moved, was discovered?
Sure enough, before he could escape, a transparent tentacle extended from the outside and stabbed him straight into his body.
Hua Wei!
Chu Yunsheng didn't have time to think, "Immediately raise the pliers and cut off the tentacles."
The cubic jellyfish was in pain and quickly withdrew the severed limb, but Chu Yunsheng almost fainted!
Highly toxic!
It was highly toxic in all the jellyfish he had eaten before.
Just a little bit of it, he felt like his whole body was going to die.
If it weren't for the fact that he still had some fire energy support in his body, he was afraid that he would have been ambushed on the spot just now.
If you keep interrupting, you will suffer!
Attacked by the cube jellyfish again" Chu Yunsheng didn't dare to guarantee whether he would survive or not, so he immediately drilled out the skeleton skull and cracked the transparent cover on the top of his head......
This is his last weapon, and his deadliest weapon!
Kiss!
A red light, just before the flying tentacles fell, pierced through the cube jellyfish, and immediately blasted a hole through its body.
The red light wave is inherited from the green wave worm, how sharp is it?
The cubic jellyfish died on the spot, and the "huge body was like a giant umbrella" and fell on Chu Yunsheng's body.
Fortunately, its toxins no longer coalesce and secrete after death, Chu Yunsheng put on this huge transparent "hat" and hurriedly crawled away from the algae on the side of the bones.
The movement just now is too big, and "plus the death of the cubic jellyfish" may attract more powerful predators, and the skull is no longer safe.
Lying in the dense algae thicket, Chu Yunsheng devoured the corpse of the cubic jellyfish at a rapid speed, this thing can't stay, "Sooner or later, it will cause trouble."
When he swallowed the whole cubic jellyfish like a date, a lot of thin air currents suddenly appeared in his body, which were strung around, and the itch was unbearable.
As soon as he tried to expel the uncomfortable gas, he heard a bang behind him, and his whole body shot straight above the lake like a jet.
The incident happened suddenly, and Chu Yunsheng panicked, "He doesn't have the ability to fight with the middle and upper class monster fish."
However, half of his panic came out of another thing, he seemed to have forgotten an important thing, "The tentacles of the jellyfish are also one of its characteristics, what if you also have tentacles?"
He's really a monster!
