Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Race's Difficult Choice

Note, this totem is a guardian totem, which only accepts the belief of Allosaurus, and will only protect creatures with Allosaurus bloodline. ”

"Allosaurus was a carnivorous dinosaur that appeared in the late Jurassic, with an average body length of 9 meters, and hunted in groups, with sauropods and other large dinosaurs as its prey. ”

It's Cretaceous now, after the Jurassic. Allosaurus should have been completely extinct.

This is the second totem found by Lin Ye, and when it was confirmed that it was a totem, a stone in Lin Ye's heart finally fell to the ground. The Allosaurus totem is gray and unusual, covered with moss, and these mosses are also dry, I don't know how long they have been abandoned here.

The Allosaurus totem, which had been abandoned for a long time, was only half exposed to the ground, and its shell was damaged a lot. Lin Ye immediately remembered his phoenix totem, when Lin Ye did not become the spirit of the totem, the phoenix totem was not much different from this. And after Lin Ye became the spirit of the totem, the stains on the phoenix totem dissipated a little, as if he had new vitality.

It seems that as long as the Totem Sanctuary collects enough faith, the totem will become more magnificent.

Lin Ye tried to wipe the moss on the Allosaurus totem, but he couldn't wipe anything off, as if the moss had been combined with the Allosaurus totem and could not be separated.

Lin Ye thought in his heart, it seems that only after the Allosaurus totem has regained its faith, can it regain its vitality and regain its function as a totem.

However, the Allosaurus totem in front of him has been the same for decades, and although it has lost its faith, it is still slowly releasing a wave of fluctuations.

This fluctuation swept over Lin Ye's body, and Lin Ye suddenly felt a trace of new strength surging out of his body.

"The Allosaurus totem is releasing energy, and the host's growth value is slowly increasing, but at a slower rate, and it is expected to take a month to increase the host's growth value a little. ”

This growth value is the same as none for Lin Ye.

However, Lin Ye guessed with it that the reason why this group of creatures liked to stay near the Allosaurus totem was because the Allosaurus totem would provide them with a steady stream of growth value, although the growth value provided was not much, but it was enough to become an objective number after accumulating from generation to generation.

"Hint, if the Allosaurus totem is activated, Lin Ye can take the totem as a vassal and obtain a skill of the Allosaurus. ”

Hearing that there was such a good thing, Lin Ye's eyes lit up, but then he sighed in his heart: "Alas...... It's a pity that Allosaurus has all been extinct, and this totem may only sleep here forever, only as a relic. Nor can it regain its former glory. ”

There was supposed to be an Allosaurus civilization here a long time ago, but now there is nothing left but a broken totem.

When he came to the hilly area, Lin Ye had been extra careful, and he had been paying attention to whether there would be hideous eyeballs around him. These eyeballs have appeared beneath the jungle and in the stone towers, each of which has been accompanied by danger and opportunity, and often accompanied by a near-fallen, or fledgling civilization.

It stands to reason that there is also a civilization here, and there should also be eyeballs. But until now, Lin Ye has not felt like being peeped at by the eyeballs, and the system has not given a warning, indicating that there are no hideous eyeballs harassing Lin Ye in this vicinity.

Thinking of the intelligent evolution belt mentioned by the system, Lin Ye could only deduce one result, that is, the civilization of Allosaurus had been completely destroyed, so the eyeballs did not appear.

But to Lin Ye's surprise, the system actually refuted him.

"The host's judgment is wrong, and there is still a remnant of Allosaurus blood here. Because only Allosaurus can make the totem release the residual energy. The system said blandly, after analyzing the Allosaurus totem, it had found the reason. "But there is no doubt that the civilization of the Allosaurus has been completely destroyed. ”

A lizard came out of the ground under Lin Ye's feet, and this lizard was very lucky, because it was buried in the ground, so it was not burned by Lin Ye's flames. But it was also unlucky, because as soon as it looked up, it saw Lin Ye. It looked at Lin Ye in horror, looking like it was frightened by Lin Ye.

At the moment when the lizard crawled out of the ground, Lin Ye found that the Allosaurus totem flickered slightly, as if he had sensed the lizard.

"Didi! ”

This skinny lizard obviously didn't know how much of a wave it had made in Lin Ye's heart, it was so frightened that the six gods were so frightened that it didn't dare to move, with tears in its eyes, it just froze on the ground.

Lin Ye questioned the system in his mind in disbelief:

"You tell me it's an Allosaurus?"

Allosaurus was a powerful carnivorous dinosaur that appeared in the late Jurassic, and it could be said to be the king of that era, and now the system was obviously telling Lin Ye that the little lizard in front of him had the blood of Allosaurus.

Fortunately, Lin Ye's receptivity was very strong, and before the system could answer, Lin Ye thought about it and said again: "Could it be that because Allosaurus touched the intelligent evolution belt, it encountered a terrifying backlash, and finally was degenerated into a lizard before escaping?"

The system replied approvingly, "The inference of the host is perfect, but the order is reversed. In order to avoid extinction, Allosaurus, with the help of the totem spirits, voluntarily degenerated the entire race into lizards, and these lizards still live on this land, and some of them left the hilly area and scattered to various areas. ”

It continues: "The host must have heard of gene expression. ”

Lin Ye nodded and said that he had learned that gene expression was the basic biological knowledge. The essence of gene expression is to open certain genes and turn off certain genes, leading to the differentiation of cells.

"Some of the genes on this lizard's body are expressed, and it becomes what it is now, and in its genes, the part that has not been expressed is the evolved Allosaurus gene, which is actively locked by the totemic spirit of Allosaurus, and has lost the ability to express genes, but because of this, it has escaped the crisis of genocide. ”

"The host's companion, Redback, also has Allosaurus blood. ”

Lin Ye nodded as if he didn't understand, speaking of which, Redback really doesn't look like a lizard these days, after the mysterious existence in the Blood Moon Lake helped Redback evolve, Redback's hind feet became thicker and thicker, and at the same time, the forelimbs were gradually shrinking and degenerating. Now Redback can not only climb tree trunks, but also walk on two feet, and its head is getting bigger and its mouth has sharp teeth.

Before the system reminded him, Lin Ye didn't think about the red back in this regard, but now that he thinks about it, it seems that it is really like that.

Lin Ye said in his mind, "According to what you mean, the red back can activate the Allosaurus totem?"

"It's possible, and you need Redback to come and verify it in person. The system said.

Lin Ye turned around and rushed to the dense forest area, his heart was excited. This silent Allosaurus totem may have the hope of being reactivated.
