Chapter 66: The Jungle in the Desert

'......Boom'

In the underground, there was a low sound of vibration, which seemed to be heard by Lin somewhere, and Lin planned to ignore it for now, because Lin was more interested in this jungle of vines and ferns.

The smaschers slammed the vine fern with their cone angles as they slowly moved through the quick-formed woodland.

The forest was full of damp smell, and the chirping of small creatures, the vine fern was more than thirty centimeters thick, and the whole was very long, and it grew crookedly up the sand for more than ten meters, because it was quite dense, Lin used the crusher to study, and they relied on the cone angle that could be popped out while disconnecting these dense fern bushes while advancing.

The Flyer flew above the Vine Fern Jungle to lead the way for the Crusher Lynn was going deeper in the desert, where almost all of the tallest vine ferns were about fifteen meters tall, and in this closer place to the twisted jungle, the vine ferns were only about ten meters.

Lynn speculated that something was hidden beneath the desert, and the sheer amount of water allowed these vine ferns to grow explosively, and their seeds may have been hiding here long ago.

Speaking of which, seeds are also quite a powerful evolution, plants have evolved specifically to protect their young, the shell is usually quite hard, and the cells inside can also be stored for a long time, usually in hundreds of years.

Originally, Lin thought that only twisted trees had such hardness and long-lasting seeds, and it turned out that ferns might also have them.

Although fragile and fragile, vine ferns have a powerful property of reaching out their appendages to wrap up the broken parts, then slowly break them down and absorb them without wasting them at all.

Plants are simpler than animal cells and have fewer species. But they are quite good at survival and competition. It made Lynn feel like it wasn't as if the more complicated it was, the stronger it was. Even if it's simple, it can easily compete with complexity.

The lead Crusher walked for a while, and Lynn reached the deeper part of the vine fern bush, which was overgrown with large vine ferns, and now, the Grinders began to dig down at the roots of some of the largest vine ferns.

The roots of the vine ferns seemed to be buried quite deep, and the Crusher dug quickly, but it wasn't until Lin had them dig more than five meters deep. It was still impossible to tell how deep the vine ferns were, their roots were so deep in the sand that they were still entwined.

Lynn used a new method in which the Flyer injected tiny explorers into the vine fern's skin to observe the cell activity in the vine fern's body.

The explorer swims inside the vine fern, observing the cells inside, and as soon as it enters, it is attacked by a large immune response, some of which produce large amounts of toxins, but this is of little use to the explorer. Lynn was able to slowly study the cells inside.

…… Seems to be quite peculiar looking.

Lynn found that the cells of the vine fern were very strange, and the cells of animals and plants were very different. But vine ferns don't look like plants, but some of them look very much like animals.

It transports nutrients quite quickly, and it splits very quickly, which is one of the reasons for its rapid growth.

However, although the vine fern has strange cells, there are still so few types of cells like plants, and it feels like the vine fern is a very special creature.

Maybe further research is needed to see how well they grow, they can multiply so much in a short period of time, there must be some special method, and Lynn also wants to master this method, which will definitely help in the future.

In this case, the seeds of the vine fern must be obtained in order to see its growth.

Looks like we'll have to keep digging.

However, just as Lin was about to continue, she suddenly felt the ground tremble again......

This feeling...... It's very familiar.

Lynn was about to listen closely, but her hearing was quickly replaced by another voice.

It was a loud roar, what seemed to be the cry of some kind of organism with a well-developed vocal sac.

These fast-growing vines and ferns attracted a lot of creatures, but most of them were small creatures that were no more than half a meter long, and the sound seemed to represent a large creature that was ...... Near!

From the field of view of a smasher digging at the edge of the group, Lin saw the vine fern in front of her suddenly shake, and a pair of large jaws with jagged teeth up to a meter long burst out of it, instantly clamping the smasher's head.

The pair of jaws pulled the Crusher back, but by this time the Crusher's cone had popped out, striking hard at the serrations on the inside of the jaw.

'Click'

A crack appeared in the slammed serration, and the jaws suddenly let go and retracted into the vine ferns.

The Smasher took advantage of the victory, and Lynn let them quickly smash away the fern bushes in front of them, rushing towards the place where the jaw had retracted.

After running for about ten meters, Lin found that she had reached a relatively empty area, where the vines and ferns had been cut flat, and in the center of the clearing, the creature that had just attacked.

The Creature Lynn was familiar with, having seen it many times in the Twisted Jungle, a large beetle with a pair of long jaws on its head, about three meters in size, that seemed to have dug a clearing for itself here, probably to occupy territory or something.

Faced with so many smashers, the Sawsaw looked a little frightened, and as it retreated, it opened its hard shell behind it, revealing the four wings underneath, and began to fly away into the air.

Forget it, leave it alone.

Lin was about to get the Crusher to turn around and leave, when there was another 'boom' from underground! The sound is quite close this time!

By the way, this is......

The ground in the clearing cracked open, and a huge creature rushed out of the ground with countless sands and broken vine ferns, and it bit the sawsaw armor in the air and dragged it back to the ground.

The sound of this vibration was indeed ...... Deep Sand Bus!

After some time in the winter, Lynn had frozen to death as the few flyers who were watching the Aztec Worms, as had the ones inside the Deep Sand Bus, so Lynn hadn't paid attention to the Aztec movements for a long time.

Only half of the sand bus was about 17 meters long, while the scorpion-like body was 7 meters wide, and Lynn speculated that it might be more than 26 meters long.

Probably not the one who attacked Behemoth before......

The Deep Sand Bus took the scythe in its mouth and chewed it, swallowing it with a crisp clattering sound, and then it looked at the smashers.

It feels a little difficult to do, the Deep Sand Bus is a very troublesome creature, it is huge, it moves extremely fast, and it can also escape from the ground, and it is difficult to win this kind of opponent with the smasher alone.

But even so, Lin didn't intend to make the Crusher back down, but instead let them stand in a line and take a direct charge at their target.

The Deep Sand Bus let out a roar at this, but retracted into the ground, leaving only a large hole in the ground.

Do you want to go into a cave and chase it? Lynn hesitated slightly, and then the sound of the earthquake sounded again.

'Bang! ’

The next moment, the deep sand bus suddenly burrowed out of the ground in the middle of the group of smastrators, and the impact of the drill directly caused more than a dozen smasmers to fly into the air more than ten meters high, and then fell heavily to the ground.

Then, the Deep Sand Bus retracted into the ground again at such a rapid speed that it seemed to be so deep underground that Lynn couldn't even feel it moving......

What a troublesome opponent.

The internal cells of the smasher who fell to the ground were severely damaged, and Lin needed to quickly restore the structure in their bodies, and then Lin had the smasher start to spread out within the vine fern jungle and retreat.

The Deep Sand Bus seemed to be quite close to a sneak attack, and Lynn could only hear its sound, I don't know why, does it have some kind of silence method?

Lin is also curious about the origin of this deep sand bus, is it here for hunting? Or for the sake of offense? And it was daylight, but it didn't seem to be afraid, but it didn't let out an Aztec attack.

Could it be that the Aztec worms are afraid of light, but the deep sand buses are not afraid?

Either way, Lynn must grab one and study it.

Behemoth is flying here, usually more than a kilometer above the glittering woodlands, and it takes a long time to fly over.

The Deep Sand Bus shook underground, and it seemed to be following one of the smasher as they were all scattered, so it had to chase one of them, which happened to be running back in the direction of the glittering woodlands.

Is it going to follow it to the Glitter Glades?

Thinking about it, Lin immediately stopped the smasher, and the moment it stopped, the ground in front of the smasher suddenly cracked, and a pair of large jaws bit directly at it.

But just as the Deep Sand Bus bites the smasher, a huge shadow suddenly appears in the sky, and Behemoth finally arrives at this time.

The Sand Bus bit the Smasher and quickly retracted, but Behemoth shot a long wire with a barb from under his head at a faster speed, hooking it right into the scales on the back of the Sand Bus before it could escape underground.

This 'thread' that holds the deep sand bus is made of a mixture of various strong tough cells and a small amount of chitin, which has a strong pulling force, and Lin has long researched this thing, which she wants to use to catch the deep sand bus.

The Deep Sand Bus dived into the dust, and when it found that it could not continue to sink, it began to twist and struggle, while Behemoth stretched out more tentacles to pull the line tight, and began to rise into the air with all its might!

The ground below was shaking, and the sand bus was smaller than the last one, so it was much less powerful than Behemoth, but it was still digging down with all its might, not wanting to be pulled out of the sand.

Behemoth's jet was fully opened, and began to expand his body to increase buoyancy, under the pull of the powerful force, countless cracks had appeared on the ground, and finally cracked with a bang, and this huge monster in the sand was finally pulled into the air by Lin!
