Chapter 257: Deep Sea Behemoth
"Don't be, I know a lot of biological knowledge in the past two years, giant species usually don't prey on small species, because it's too troublesome, and the predation income is not enough for him to consume calories in one action, you can fly down with confidence, I can't deal with giant sea monsters, but other medium-sized and even large creatures, I'll help you solve them." Liu Chang said: "Since I came here to investigate marine life this time, there is no reason to watch from afar, so hurry up." ”
"Okay, okay, I'll be in trouble for a while, you can help me solve it!" Zhiqing spoke, lowering his figure.
And Liu Chang also picked up his knife and gun, always on guard against the thousands of creatures below.
Slowly descending from a high altitude, Liu Chang saw the specific situation on the sea ice surface thoroughly.
The ocean is frozen in ice, showing crystal white and light red, and the water in the ocean has long changed color Liu Chang has heard Li Qingshui mention it before, and the red mist seeps out of the earth, which naturally dyes the ocean red, but after the light red water forms ice crystals, the natural color also fades, turning into a reddish white similar to transparent.
This is most of the color at sea level, but in addition to this, Liu Chang swept through the air and saw countless huge holes, which were broken through the ice and exposed with bright red water. Just when Liu Chang was wondering how these ice surfaces with a diameter of tens or even hundreds of meters were broken, he saw a head in the next hole.
A huge head, the diameter of the head is tens of meters in size, because it is under the surface of the water, so Liu Chang can't tell whether this head belongs to an eel or a giant snake, but just looking at the terrifying area and volume, it makes him a little frightened. As Liu Chang and the others passed over the giant, the giant head just stretched out of the ice and breathed, and a large mouthful of hot air rose from below, and the mist filled the entire sky.
"I'm grass his grandma, it's so big!" The monster screamed, and quickly flapped its wings to speed up its flight, rushing past the big head at its fastest speed so far.
As soon as a person and a bird passed by, a loud ice-breaking sound came from behind, and faintly, Liu Chang saw a huge turtle break through the ice hundreds of meters from inside, and then bit the huge head.
"I ...... ! Liu Chang looked at the scene that gradually disappeared into the virtual shadow, dumbfounded.
"Run!" Zhiqing screamed as he flew, obviously frightened by the ice powder and the loud sound behind him.
But Liu Chang was brought back to his senses by a cry of surprise, and after he reacted, he patted the back of the bird below vigorously and shouted, "Stop!" ”
"Stop farting!" The parrot responded.
"Hurry!" Liu Chang continued to shout - in the midst of the sound of ice and earthquakes in the sky, he had to use the loudest volume to make the parrot close at his feet hear his words.
"Stop farting!" The parrot's response this time was the same as last time.
", then you wait for me in the sky, and I'll go over to you later." As Liu Chang spoke, he jumped down from a height of less than 100 meters.
"What are you doing? Looking for death? Seeing Liu Chang's action, the parrot maneuvered in the air.
"I'm here to collect information, these two creatures are so big, they must be super lifeforms, and it will be very helpful for the institute to collect their information. Don't worry, I'm measured, the aftermath of their battle won't kill me, and I'm so small that they won't pay attention to me. Liu Chang spoke, and fell from the sky.
"Damn, whatever you want!" There was another sound of ice explosion, and the parrot was so frightened that its feathers exploded, and fled into the distance.
And Liu Chang fell from a height of dozens of meters, and after landing on the ice, he smashed a big ice hole on the ice, and then the person jumped out of it again, and ran in the direction of the huge phantom battle.
Carrying his bag and gun, he approached the two phantoms behind the red mist - and then saw a shocking scene.
What is shock?
It's that you look up, and the breadth of your gaze isn't even as long as someone else's leg -- that's shock.
Therefore, Liu Chang was shocked now, he ran to the place where the battle took place, and then saw one leg of the turtle standing on the ice - this leg was about ten meters thick and dozens of meters long, anyway, with Liu Chang's field of vision, he only saw that this giant leg occupied all his sight.
Then he heard the howl, and saw the fight of the shadows behind the red mist, and the blood and water spilling down from the sky. Then Liu Chang jumped in the broken ice to avoid the huge waves and ice stones, and then used a special container to preserve some blood components in the blood-stained seawater, and then quickly left here.
But at this moment, the sound of the earth-shattering fight suddenly disappeared. Then there were two innocent buzzing sounds in the air. The two humming sounds were loud and heavy, but Liu Chang could still tell the difference, which was clearly the sound of the different voices between the giant snake and the turtle.
At first, he thought it was the confrontation between the two beasts, and the mutual humming was a threatening roar, but listening to it, Liu Chang tasted a different flavor from the middle.
Because the humming sound was muffled and abrupt, there were clearly many syllables in it, and he remembered that Li Qingshui once told him that more than a dozen different syllables could organize simple language. And whether it can have language ability is also the key to judging whether a creature is intelligent.
Although the humming sound had just started and the time was still very short, Liu Chang could distinguish at least dozens or hundreds of different syllables in this different humming sound, although he couldn't understand what the meaning of this syllable represented, but he was 100% sure that this was two giant beasts talking.
"Is it a sapient species?" Liu Chang stopped, using the powerful memory function of his new brain to memorize the syllables from the mouths of the two giant beasts, and imitated them with his own voice, and at the same time, his heart was full of thoughts.
For it is evident that the two behemoths that appear here are not merely the ones who have grown up to be very large, but that they are truly intelligent—and that wisdom seems to have been figured out, for the two behemoths that are communicating are clearly speaking the same language—and it is difficult to say which of the two invented it, or whose they learned.
This is what surprised Liu Chang.
The second point is that these two giant beasts obviously have at least as much intelligence as ordinary humans, so why are they fighting here.
If it is explained by predation, it will certainly not be reasonable, because these two giant beasts should be evenly matched regardless of their size or the momentum of the fight just now, and this kind of equal relationship should not have the relationship between preying and being preyed on - because both species have intelligence, unless they are too hungry to walk, it is impossible to find something that they may not be able to fight as food.
