On the Leviathan's side, Lynn kept it guarded by the Giant Worms and didn't move, and Lynn didn't know if they weren't hungry at all or something else, but something else interesting was going on here.
Ice, suddenly, froze down from the surface of the sea.
Although Lynn had seen ice freeze in the water many times, she had never seen such a strange phenomenon, this ice was not spreading as wantonly as before, but a huge icicle from the surface of the water into the deep sea, the end of which had been slowly freezing and increasing in length, and was about to touch the bottom of the sea.
Why does this freeze become columnar and not freeze the surrounding waters?
Curious, Lynn approached the Leviathan, which was not thick, and found that many of the creatures in the icicles were frozen, but they were floating creatures such as jellyfish.
It is possible that the jellyfish did not avoid the icicle and hit it on its own, because the water around the icicle is not very cold.
Lin asked Leviathan to reach out and gently touch the icicle, and at this moment Lin felt a wave of pain coming, and the skin of the tentacle was actually stuck to the ice.
The icy cold spread rapidly through the cells in the tentacles, and Lin immediately pulled the tentacles back with force, and with a strong tearing pain, Lin finally took the tentacles back.
A large wound appeared at the site where the tentacle touched the icicle, which was torn open when the tentacle was withdrawn just now, and now there was a large piece of skin stuck to the icicle.
Lin quickly repaired the wound on the tentacle, and the blood vessels on it would automatically close when injured, preventing any cells from flowing out, but Lin was more concerned about this icicle.
What a powerful freezing ability......
Why does this ice have such strange powers? Unlike normal ice, it has a strong freezing ability, but it does not spread freely in the water......
Why? And the surrounding water is not cold, so this phenomenon should only occur when the temperature in the water is extremely low, right?
Incomprehensible.
Lynn's mind was an interesting reality, which was made of chitinite in the Leviathan's body, and the sphere had a long stalk on top of it, and the end of the handle was a hook.
Lin took out the orb and placed it on the icicle, and sure enough, the ice suddenly spread up with the orb, and soon the entire chitinous ball froze.
Lynn then grabbed the hook on the ball with her tentacles and ripped the frozen ball off, then took it to the trap of the giant worm and threw the frozen ball into it.
The moment the ice ball was dropped, the trap mouth and the surrounding sand shook violently, and the giant trap insect obviously reacted quite a lot to this, and the ice on the ball began to spread slowly, and the surrounding sand and gravel also shook more and more.
Suddenly, the sand around the trap's mouth was lifted, and a huge creature burst out of the sand, kicking up billowing sand and dust and swimming into the water.
Is this the essence of the 'Giant Trap'? It wasn't as big as Lin had imagined, and the trap that Lin saw at first was actually the creature's entire body, an oval structure, with a trap mouth on its head and a ring of swimming tentacles and spouts on its tail, so it could break out of the sand.
However, the tentacles and spouts of the giant worm were too small in contrast to their bodies, and they only swam in the water for a short time before sinking back to the bottom as if they had lost their strength.
It then began digging in the sand with its tentacles, seemingly trying to burrow into the sand again.
Lin wouldn't let the giant trap succeed, Leviathan immediately released several flying saws, they rushed towards the giant trap at a very fast speed, the high-speed rotating flying saw cut the tentacles of the giant trap with its sawtooth, and was slashed by sharp serrations, a large number of cells gushed out of the wound, and it immediately squirted water out of a distance.
The saws chased after them and cut into the wounds on the tentacles of the giant worm again, which were not thick in the first place, and the injured tentacles were cut off in an instant, and the behemoth was incapacitated.
Having defeated a creature ten times larger than a Leviathan, Lynn wasn't particularly surprised, after all, this creature wasn't a ferocious predator.
But this creature is really peculiar, and it actually evolved a hollow body to use as a trap.
Leviathan approached the giant trap worm and looked inside with his eyeballs, and found that there was no ice on the chitinous sphere that he threw it in before, so it should have melted, although the freezing ability was very strong, but it was useless to melt it so quickly.
The Leviathan then swam to the tail of the Giant Trap and unleashed a tiny flying saw, allowing them to enter the Giant Worm's spout and cut through the soft structures inside.
Lynn quickly killed this huge creature, and the structure inside it was actually very simple, the inner layer of the oval body was empty, and the inner and outer walls were covered with shells, which was very suitable for use as a trap, so the organs were all squeezed into the narrow part between the inner and outer walls, and it could make quite a large amount of dissolved liquid at once, which could fill the entire body cavity in a very short time.
Lynn felt the need to learn the structure of this rapid dissolution, as the cells of the giant worm seemed to be able to swallow some of the otherwise harmless ingredients contained in the water, and then quickly transform them into a powerful dissolution.
As for the rest of the aspect, it's nothing special, this creature is large, but the structure is quite simple.
Then the next step is to continue traveling, but this also needs a base for the study of the marvelous icicles.
Lynn unleashes the collector to burrow into the worm's body, devouring the various structures and cells that the flying saw has chopped up, and finally only a large oval hard shell remains, and Lynn puts the base seed into this hard shell.
Next, the Leviathan exited the area, swimming upwards, heading towards the unknown.
There was still some time before the night, and the legion ball caught by the main base was lifeless, it seemed to be dead from dryness, although it had no mouth, it had gills, and if the water on the gills was lost, it would die because it could not collect oxygen.
It's not clear how it works, as Lynn has never made gills, and if it's on land, it relies directly on cortical cells to trap air.
The Leviathan was now close to the surface of the water, but the water that should have been warm made Lynn feel colder and colder, and it found that the water surface had been covered with a large thin ice crystal, and the light shone through the not too thick ice, and shimmered with a strange light.
The icicle just now came out from under the ice and stretched into the deep water.
Leviathan swam close to the ice and tapped it with its tentacles, and Lynn found that the ice lacked the ability of icicles to freeze quickly, and only shattered with a single knock like normal ice.
Why is that icicle so strange? This is something that Lynn can't explain at the moment.
The Leviathan continued to swim slowly under the ice, and there were quite a few creatures in this cold environment, most of them jellyfish, they dangled under the ice, and although they looked beautiful with the light through the ice, Lynn felt that they were in the way.
Lynn had to make sure that Leviathan's tentacles could not be stung, as the ice in front of it had thickened and the light in the water had dimmed as it swam past the swarm.
There was no more life left in this environment, and the Leviathan continued to advance in the cold waters,
The deeper she swam, the darker her surroundings became, and Lynn had to light up the lanterns that illuminated the strangely shaped ice crystals above.
After swimming in the dark ice for a while, Lin still didn't find any creatures, and just as Lin was hesitating whether to go back, she suddenly found a bright light in front of her.
Is it a hole?
When the Leviathan swam into the light, he discovered that the source of the light was a large circular hole in the ice, at least two Leviathans wide.
It's strange why there are holes in the ice like this?
Leviathan swam to the bottom of the ice cave and saw that the edge of the cave seemed to have been dug by sharp objects...... Did some creature dig it up? Why do you want to do that?
Lynn also found that the traces were all new, with ice crystal fragments floating down on them...... Maybe the burrowing creature is nearby?
Suddenly, the eyeballs floating around the Leviathan saw a huge black shadow, which was directly below the Leviathan, and rushed towards the Leviathan at a great speed!
