Chapter Sixty-Six: The Colorful Ocean Flutters ......
Colorful waves surging with the wind, the sea is wide, the fish leaps into the sky, and the birds fly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a shallow sea in the middle of the Macro Continent and the Star Continent......
Haiyo, the blue sea, the colorful sea, the light and fluttering sea.
The colorful sea is suspended above the blue sea, gently wafting in the wind, and the gorgeous and brilliant colors ripple like ripples in the bright sun, glowing with mysterious colors.
"This is the time to arrive, Arashi of this era. The world where land creatures and sky creatures appear on a large scale is really much more beautiful than ever. ”
Xinglan, who swooped directly from the orbit of space, did not rush to find a random creature to manipulate, but floated on the surface of the sea in the form of a simple signal, carefully observing the Lan Xing of this era. This floating ocean of color is exactly the same specks of color in the blue ocean when you look at the stars from space.
The height at which the colored ocean is suspended is not very high, but about five to ten meters higher than the blue sea. It is also not thick, and the thickness from top to bottom is about thirty or forty centimeters. It is translucent, and after the sunlight passes through it, the white light dissolves into countless bands of colored light and falls on the blue sea below.
It's not really a sea, it's a creature, a translucent creature that can levitate above the surface of the sea.
"The name ......" Xinglan looked at this fantastic ocean with some confusion, watching it swell in the wind at sea like the real ocean, "Let's call it an airbag jellyfish." ”
"Really, it's beautiful."
It is true that the jellyfish is a creature that can easily evolve to fly, and it only needs to fill the cavity in its body with a gas that is less dense than air, and it can be suspended in the sky as freely as a balloon. Unlike birds, jellyfish can hover in the sky for a long time without expending a lot of energy...... Of course, it can't compete with wings in terms of speed and agility.
Levitating, colorful, translucent, swaying in the wind, there's nothing surprising about this, except that the scale of the jellyfish swarm in front of you is a little too spectacular.
This is not comparable to the scale of the jellyfish swarm that Xinglan encountered in the jellyfish field in the Marine Period, you know, this is a spectacular sight that can be seen in space!
The swarm of airbag jellyfish that stretches for an unknown number of kilometers has no end in sight! If this scale can continue into the future era of civilization, it will be a psychedelic sea that can completely disorient the ships that enter it!
"Maybe it will develop into some strange myths and legends in the future." Xinglan once again fell into a long-lost state of brain replenishment, "The colorful realm guarded by the Kraken, the lost navigator will sacrifice his life as the price of offense......"
……
The airbag jellyfish does not photosynthesize, it is a translucent body that is constantly moving, so it does not affect the survival of the plankton on the real surface below, but only adds a magnificent landscape to the ocean.
They don't have pigment cells like squid, and the reason why they appear to be flowing seven colors is entirely due to the dispersion of translucent bodies in the sun.
Hula! Another huge sea breeze hit, and the colorful ocean of airbag jellyfish was like a huge cloud, slowly fluttering while deforming......
Of course, jellyfish can't float in the sky all the time. The sun's rays cause them to gradually dehydrate in the air, which is especially critical for jellyfish, so they do not float too high, but can come down into the ocean from time to time to rehydrate.
This is only a sporadic phenomenon, and it is important to know that airbag jellyfish also need food, so when an unknown small fish rises above the surface of the sea, the spectacle escalates again.
Ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand...... The overwhelming airbag jellyfish poured down like bees. They open the exhaust vent at the top of their body and spew gas out from above, propelling themselves into the water......
Then, a large number of airbag jellyfish simultaneously stretched out their slender tentacles covered with highly poisonous stinger cells, weaving a web of death in the ocean!
There is no brightly colored poisonous mist, no bright electricity, and the attack of the stinging cells is invisible, just a light wipe, the small fish that is touched will stop breathing forever.
"A scene of natural selection, the power of such a large number of airbag jellyfish is really amazing." Xinglan walked directly through the bodies of some jellyfish in the air, scanning their internal organs, "But it's a creature with a fairly simple structure." ”
The frightened schools of fish scurried to the bottom, where the predatory airbag jellyfish reinflated and suspended out of the surface and returned to the colorful ocean of airbag jellyfish.
However, nature will not allow any creature to be invincible, especially one of these enormous numbers.
When the surface of the sea was broken from below, Xinglan reacted quickly in a short time, aiming the simulated perspective of the signal on the gray shadows that jumped up.
They moved too fast, leaping lightly like a real shadow and skimming out of the water, making only a tiny splash.
It was a long, gray fish with a pointed snout that was slightly open and pointed straight at its target, revealing two rows of tiny, sharp teeth. On its back are huge dinosaur-like spines, and these sharp bone spurs extend from the ends of the fan-shaped back, flashing with a sharp cold light.
Their name is simply predestined: spine fish.
The spine fish gracefully flipped in the air, spilling a string of water droplets that shimmered in the sunlight. It twists its body sensitively and faces its prey in the most appropriate position, its tiny eyes staring ahead without squinting.
All of this happened in a very short period of time, so short that only the signalns had time to react, and the balloon jellyfish swarm had not yet reacted......
The result was unmistakable, the spine fish twisted their bodies to draw a perfect parabola on the surface of the sea, and the sharp spines on their backs pierced the soft body of the airbag jellyfish mercilessly, like sharp blades across this colorful ocean......
Sneer......
A large number of air sacs were quickly punctured, and a series of air leaking sounds sounded on the sea, and the air bag jellyfish attacked by the spine fish leaked like a broken balloon, and flew high involuntarily......
When the gas leaked completely, the bulging body of the airbag jellyfish had completely turned into a piece of broken skin, and after a symbolic powerless struggle, it fell from the sky, through the chaotic sea of colors, and fell into the blue water.
The spine fish are very smart, and Xinglan can clearly see that they remember every airbag jellyfish that has been crossed, and then watch the trajectory of those airbag jellyfish after they lose control in the water, and swim exactly in the direction of the jellyfish's fall.
After leaking all the gas in their bodies, the airbag jellyfish are not completely dead, and the rag-like jellyfish are still dying after falling weakly into the ocean, waving tentacles covered with highly poisonous stinger cells.
When the first spine fish swam close to the falling airbag jellyfish, the rag-like jellyfish slammed its long, slender tentacles and struck the spine fish. The tentacle-strewn stinging cells shot their own stingers desperately at the same moment, piercing deep into the skin tissue of the spine fish, releasing a terrifying venom.
But all this was in vain, the spine fish had apparently possessed the ability to be immune to jellyfish toxins in their long evolution, they did not care about the attack of the jellyfish, did not show the slightest sign of poisoning, leisurely flicked their tails and swam forward, swallowed the dying jellyfish into their bodies, and rolled in the water with satisfaction.
Bubbling, punctuating, diving, this fluency in one go.
At this moment, over the ocean, a large number of airbag jellyfish have fallen into a panic. They try to get out of here through the fumatoes on the sides of their bodies, but know that these airbag jellyfish are all crowded together, and the backward jets will only blow their companions in the direction of danger, and the consequence of everyone spraying together is that no one can leave!
The chaos of all this makes it easier for the spine fish to hunt, and after one successful attempt, they dive down again, then leap to their feet and use their long spines on their backs to pierce the airbag jellyfish suspended above!
The battered balloon jellyfish swarms finally realized that a life-threatening crisis was looming, and they began to use their underdeveloped nervous systems to reach an opinion: to avoid them together.
Numerous jellyfish spew downwards together, and the strong air currents even deflect the jumping spine fish, but they do not have the body structure to fly high in the air, so they do not last long, and the attack of the spine fish is constantly coming.
"What about a wonderful performance, but neither of the contestants is the actor I want......" Xinglan suddenly laughed softly, and expressed her judgment in a childish voice, "My favorite actor is coming." ”
There was another cracking sound, and dozens of airbag jellyfish located in the lower layer of the colorful ocean were broken by the backspines of the spine fish that jumped high, flew up with a leak, and then fell weakly from the sky......
The food is in hand! With the joy of victory in sight, the spine fish predicted the trajectory of the landing, and waited for the jellyfish fragments to fall into their mouths with their mouths wide open......
"Ahh ”
Fragments of the body of the colorful jellyfish tumbled and fell in the sky, but it was destined to never fall to the surface of the sea.
Whoosh ......
The scream that pierced the air quickly amplified in a matter of seconds, and several white shadows flew through the sky. The figure as swift as lightning rushed through this sea area in an instant, flying towards the far side of the ocean......
The jellyfish fragments that were falling from the sky were gone.
The delicious stuff was snatched halfway through! Judging by the reaction of the spine fish, it is clear that this is not the first time they have encountered this kind of thing. They screamed in rage, but they were powerless to chase down the thieves, and by this time the colorful sea of airbag jellyfish had risen to more than the limit of their jump, and eventually, they had no choice but to dive into the sea again, aborting the hunt.
With no harassers, the Rainbow Ocean regained its calm, fluttering in the wind above it. Although there are a lot of airbag jellyfish that the spine fish attack, they are not worth mentioning compared to the overall number.
Everything returned to its original state, but Xinglan in the form of a signal sub was a little stupid and froze in place, ah, she did see a few white seabirds with wings just now, but this speed ......
"Wait, I'm not mistaken, right? How can wings alone fly so fast? Xinglan turned her perspective, and the signal rushed out quickly, chasing in the direction where the seabirds were leaving, "Don't want to run!" ”
"Ranxing, my beautiful masterpiece. Again and again, how many more surprises do you have to bring me? ”
