Chapter 9: Out of the Ice
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The blood vessels worked well after they were constructed, but Lynn noticed some minor problems, the cells inside the blood vessels had difficulty getting oxygen, so they became sluggish.
And Lin can't make holes in the blood vessels, so that the contents will flow out, but the cells in the blood vessels don't move quickly by their own activities but by the water flow inside, so Lin doesn't care so much.
Lynn's phagogues have also been renewed, they have a vascular structure, but they do not have a heart, instead there is a muscle cell deep in the mouth, and a storage sac connected to the blood vessels, the phagogue can take the food they bite into the sac, at this time the sac will contract, squeeze the food and water inside into the vascular system, and the cells in the blood vessels will break down and transfer the nutrients throughout the body.
The excess water is circulated back into the sac in the blood vessels and expelled the next time the phagosome opens his mouth.
The plan to resurrect the Roundshield Worm was put on hold for the time being, as Lynn couldn't get as many cells to fill the Roundshield Worm's shell, and the construction of the heart and blood vessels had already consumed a lot, and it needed to find more food.
But this time the cold lasted for a long time, although it didn't have any effect on Lin, but it meant that other cells would not appear, so there would be no food, although the fat cells were enough for Lin to last for a long time, but if she made something about the size of an aircraft carrier, it would almost consume more than 70%, Lin didn't want to consume so many reserves, what should I do if I encountered any danger again?
Maybe it can digest itself and build a new base in the shell of the Round Shield Worm?
No, Lynn didn't want to be dependent on other creatures like this, it wanted to grow such a hard shell on its own, and if it lived in it, it would be difficult to evolve a high hard skin.
So what now?
Going out to find food?
Do you dig it out with a giant digger?
It would be too slow to do that, and Lin wanted to get some more powerful ice-digging structures, like the Round Shield Worm, which would dig very quickly......
That's right...... The Round Shield Worm does not dig through the ice with its arthropods, it appears to break through the ice with the semicircular carapace of its head, but it requires a great deal of size and strength.
In this case, there is only a modification of the aircraft carrier.
Lynn's aircraft carrier itself is a cylindrical body, which is very suitable for ramming, but Lin does not want to use the aircraft carrier itself to collide, but forms two huge tentacles on both sides of the aircraft carrier's body, the front end of this tentacle is formed by Lin into a solid circle, and has a serrated structure, which is called 'hammer head', and the tentacles are composed of a large number of muscle cells, which can exert great power to hammer the ice.
Originally, Lin thought of this structure for a long time, but because the continuous swing of the hammer will consume a lot of muscle cells, and the energy replenishment time is too long, the efficiency is not very high, but after having a vascular system, Lin can continue to replenish energy to muscle cells while waving the tentacles, and the efficiency is much stronger than before.
After the construction was completed, Lin began to activate the aircraft carrier, the aircraft carrier itself has two tentacles for swimming, and there are huge water vents at the rear end, which can be moved very quickly, if it is not for the surrounding ice, the round shield worm will not be able to hurt it at all.
After leaving some of the cells inside the Round Shield worm shell, Lynn began her ice-breaking journey.
Before the aircraft carrier swam to the ice, the hammered tentacles slammed into the ice wall, and under the tremendous force, not only was a crater punched out of the ice wall, but countless cracks appeared around it.
It's really effective, it feels like it's the same as when the Round Shield Worm was digging.
Lin asked the aircraft carrier to continue swinging the hammer in succession, completely shattering the ice crystals in front of him, and smashing out a passage that allowed the aircraft carrier to move.
Lin then hardened the carrier's head, so that it could not only smash the ice with a hammer, but also hit itself.
Lin refused to do this before for fear of hurting the vascular system in her body, but now she doesn't seem to have any problems, because there is also a vascular system in the tentacles of the hammer, and it didn't hurt when she swung it just now.
The large eyeballs on the head of the aircraft carrier were degraded by Lin, and several small eyeball tentacles were formed on the side of the head of the aircraft carrier to observe.
Now, it's much easier to move forward through the ice.
I think it's going to keep going down, right? Lynn felt that the wild cells should have taken refuge in the grains of sand below, perhaps it was too warm there for the ice to freeze there.
Thinking about it, Lin changed to move downward, and continued to easily break the ice, although the ice will have different hardness, but it is not a problem under the attack of hammer tentacles, and it will probably not take long to reach the beach at the bottom.
Odd?
After breaking another layer of ice, Lynn saw an unusual sight, which had not yet reached the beach, but there was an ice-free area.
It was an ice cave large enough to hold Lynn's three aircraft carriers, and there was no sign of excavation on the surrounding ice walls, and Lynn didn't know how this was formed, and Lynn slowly swam into the clearing in the ice.
Strange place, why is there such a place? It is impossible for the ice to dissolve into this way on its own, could it be dug up by some kind of creature? But I didn't see any of them.
As Lynn was wondering why this place had formed, she suddenly noticed some small dots on the surrounding ice wall that were moving.
What is that?
Unable to see clearly from the tentacles of the eyeballs on the side of the aircraft carrier, Lin dispatched the small devourers inside the aircraft carrier, and when they swam close to the ice wall, they realized that the small dots that had moved were cells, which were almost the same color as the ice, and were not easy to see.
These little cells were widely found on the ice walls, and Lynn didn't know what they were doing, but it was food anyway.
Without thinking too much about it, Lin let the Devourers start hunting them, while Lin had the Carrier release more Devourers ready to sweep away the cells.
The Devourer quickly devoured the cells on the ice wall, which were defenseless, ordinary, round, and small, but capable of doing a strange thing to escape the Devourer.
They can go straight into the ice, without any digging methods, but just by digging in.
The small hole drilled out by the cells was completely inaccessible to the devourer, so they had to give up the hunt.
It's really peculiar, how do they do it? Lynn watched them closely, and from the eyes of the smallest devourer, it could see that the cells seemed to secrete a liquid that instantly dissolved the ice crystals around the body, allowing them to move in and out of the ice.
I see, is this how they made this hole? Then this kind of cell should be called ...... 'ice-melting bacteria'.
The ice-melting mushrooms hid in the ice, and they seemed to be swaying there merrily.
Boom!
The next moment, the giant hammer tentacles of the Lin aircraft carrier slammed into the ice wall, which not only shattered the ice wall, but also knocked out the ice-melting bacteria hiding inside, and then the devourers quickly devoured the small cells mixed in the ice chips.
Knowing that it was not safe to hide in the ice, the ice melters fled together, and Lynn immediately shattered the ice again and chased them in the direction they had fled.
Although these ice-melting fungi are said to be able to drill in the ice, they are actually very slow, not as fast as Lin's aircraft carrier to break the ice, and Lin can smash a large number of ice-melting fungi from the ice almost every time, and then Lin directly asks the large devourers to swallow them and ice chips together and bite them into powder.
Lynn just hammered them out of the wall and moved forward, but before Lynn could go any further, it suddenly found itself in the water again, and there was no ice in front of it.
Into the ice cave again? No, it's not.
It was a vast expanse of water, and Lynn had left the frozen area.
Is that...... What the?
In front of Lynn's eyes, a strange sight appeared.
In the vast expanse of water, it was still empty and empty, but among the grains of sand below, there was something that Lin had never seen before.
Most of these things were long or round shapes, covered with striped protrusions, some of them were lying on the sand, some were standing in the sand, and Lynn looked at them for a while to confirm that they were creatures, because they were almost motionless, but when a stream of water passed, their bodies would begin to shake, and their tentacles would extend from their bodies, waving in the flowing water.
These organisms should also be multicellular assemblage, they are very abundant and are almost all over the beach, it seems that there is a reason why the round shield worm does not eat single cells, it should be better at eating these multicellular organisms.
Where do these multicellular organisms come from? Lynn has been a single-celled biologist for so long, and since when has other organisms also appeared multicellular?
