Chapter X: Possible Threats
While the phage crawled out of the trapper's corpse slowly absorbing the invading fungus, the Plague Wyvern stared at the ground from high in the air.
It seems that not only the dragon can transmit information to the fungus, but the fungus can also transmit information to the dragon, and it seems to realize that the fungus is constantly being devoured and is about to take some action.
But now...... It's too late.
Two explosive bombs shot out of Behemoth's cannon at high speed, and they aimed at the wyvern below, and when the blast was halfway through, suddenly they both burned into a burst of fire, and the two burning bombs hit the wyvern directly, and the flames immediately spread over the dragon's body.
Lynn uses a new adhesive fuel that can stick to each other and burn for a long time.
The burning wyvern let out a burst of cries and flew off the fungus-covered island.
Lin mainly wanted to see what the wyvern would do when it was burned by the flames, and would he still be able to maintain a clear mind? Or is it ......
'Boom'.
The burning dragon rushed into the sea, and the strong fire dissipated in the sea in an instant, but the flying dragon never surfaced.
The little dragon is not afraid of water and can swim, I don't know if the big one is like this, but the focus is not here, the focus should be on fungi...... Fear of sea water.
The plague fungus will die when it encounters the seawater, which is why they did not pollute the sea, but judging from the fact that the flying dragon rushed into the sea just now, it did not consider the fungus on its body, can this prove that the fungus is not completely controlling it? After all, locusts can even spread the fungus by suicide.
Leviathan slowly lowered his altitude and flew above the surface of the sea to see where the wyvern had sunk.
Although the fungus is afraid of seawater, it is not expected that seawater will completely penetrate into the dragon's body. The fungus guò locust can infect locust swarm lords who have no water in their bodies at all. I wonder how the Wyvern is doing now?
"Gurgling ......"
Suddenly a lot of bubbles floated on the surface of the water. Then, a large black figure floated up from the sea, its limbs spread out, and it floated motionless on the surface of the sea.
…… Is it dead?
Behemoth approached the surface of the water and shot a hook rope from the muzzle of the cannon beneath him to hook the wyvern, and just as Behemoth pulled it up, the wyvern suddenly opened its wings, raised its head and bit the hook line that Behemoth shot.
But after two seconds. It let go of its mouth again and tilted its head into the water.
It doesn't look like he's completely dead.
Behemoth pulled the wyvern out of the water and slowly flew to another island not far from the fungal infestation, which was only dry grains of sand and rocks.
Here, Lynn breaks down the wyvern.
Behemoth unleashed a large number of units dedicated to breaking down fungal infections, their shells to prevent fungal penetration and corrosion, and these small units burrowed into the body of the wyvern to detect it.
Like the infected locust, the wyvern has a large number of fungi in its body, and the organ that was originally used to hold the flame burning liquid has completely become used to contain fungus dust, and it is filled with a large amount of fungus dust. It seems to be waiting for the wyvern to erupt at any time.
This seems to indicate that the fungus is consciously using the organs in the wyvern's body, and they know that the wyvern usually uses this organ to spray things. That's why it's stuffed with a lot of fungus dust.
But now these organs are soaked in seawater, the fungus is basically dead, the moment the wyvern falls into the water, the mouth and respiratory organs are flooded in large quantities, and there is a plate-like structure in the wyvern's mouth that can be opened and closed, this Lin thinks is used to prevent the flame from ignition, but it can also be used to prevent water ingress, but the wyvern obviously did not close the board when he fell into the water.
The Wyvern's brain also has a large number of signs of infection, like locusts, the fungus and the Wyvern's brain are mixed together, it is difficult to judge that the infection is completely incomplete, the brain is not flooded, but it has stopped active due to lack of oxygen.
After examination, Lin felt that this wyvern was no different from a locust, but it would rush into the sea, and it should be a fungus that did not control it completely.
Lin was more concerned that if the fungus was able to infect certain organisms with higher intelligence, they might consciously control other organisms, so that they could ...... They are perfectly capable of forming an army of their own.
A powerful army carrying the plague poses a terrible threat to Rin and all the creatures of Yiqiē.
What a troublesome species......
Behemoth slowly rose into the air, watching the phages slowly devour the entire fungus island, and Lynn thought that it was possible for the fungus to 'come up' a solution against the phage, so she couldn't use the phage when they were controlling the highly intelligent creatures.
But it didn't really matter, Lynn didn't think the fungus could change faster than herself.
But no matter what, this creature must be cleaned up quickly and thoroughly, the current way of cleaning is too slow, and Lin needs to speed up the progress, but fortunately, after devouring several fungal islands before, Lin has considerable energy to create a force to clean up these fungi.
Behemoth opened the cannon muzzle on his body, and released a large number of flyers from it, these flyers scattered to find fungal infected islands on the sea, each flyer has small phages in their bodies, they can rush up the island to kill themselves, and then devour the whole island with the phage!
At the same time, for those islands that are swallowed by Lynn, Lin will build some special structures on them, and Lin will build a kind of tree-type structure base, and then create more pilots and phages to find nearby fungal islands, and these trees can also be used as camouflage.
Speaking of which, there are no echo eggs in the nearby islands, and so far, I haven't figured out what is going on, so maybe some troops will have to go back to the islands where they had eggs before and get some eggs back to see what they have to do with the fungus.
There is a possibility that there will be another war, and Lin will stand in the way of a qiē creature in the West Continent to fight the plague!
This kind of war with the forces that destroy it has a very 'great' feeling.
On the other side of the displayer, the little dragon fell asleep on the head worm, and the head worm stared at the display closely, it also knew the current situation, it thought that it should also join the fight, so it was ready to start rapid production troops, the head worm indicated that there was a class in its army that could fight the fungus.
I don't know how long it will take to produce it, but it's always good to have a little help.
As Lynn's base created more flyers to join the fungal search, the day and night slowly passed, and another flyer on the continent discovered something interesting...... Thing.
The Flyer had been following the only surviving skeleton dragon for a long time, and it had made its way through the jungle, and Lynn's Flyer had been following it in a changing color, recording its life and the creatures around it.
Although the squid has sharp claws and sharp teeth, they like to attack with all kinds of things like the ancient squid, but their skills are higher than that of the ancient squid, for example, the ancient squid will only look for sharp objects and will not pay attention to things that are not sharp, and when the skeletal dragon finds a branch that is not sharp, it will sharpen its head with a rock.
There is also the Skeleton Dragon, which is good at using toxins, it will grind some poisonous plants, and then apply the poison to the tips, Lin thinks that this will cause poisoning if she eats meat, but the Skeleton Dragon has never been poisoned, and it must effectively choose the amount of venom and the location of the thorn.
However, this does not mean that the skeleton dragon is smarter than the ancient squid, it is just that their living environment is different.
This is how the dragon slowly marched south through the jungle with a pointed log and the plant venom on it.
Now, the skeleton dragon was eyeing a ceratosaurus in the glade ahead.
This ceratosaurus is different from the previous species seen by Lynn, it is called 'Protoceratosaurus', it has no horns, but it has a backing, and it is very small, only 1.8 meters long, this Protoceratosaurus used its pincer-like mouth to dig into the roots of plants in the jungle.
All the ceratosaurs Lynn has seen so far have these mouths, and the skeletons would cut them off and use them as digging objects.
The skeleton moved quietly behind the ceratop, holding up its sharp branches, and then threw the branches out the moment the protoceratops lowered their heads to eat!
The branch was precisely inserted into the butt of the protoceratop, and the protoceratops screamed and ran frantically.
The skeleton dragon did not catch up, and the protoceratopus fell down after running a distance of more than ten meters, becoming frightened and agitated, and the toxin flowed in its blood at high speed, dying faster.
The skeleton dragon looked left and right for a while, noticing that there were no carnivorous creatures around it attracted by the screams, and then slowly walked over, the props it carried were not only branches, but also a few stones, some of which were sharp, some flat but sharp, and it hung on its legs with a slender vine, and the skeleton dragon first inserted a sharp stone into the weaker neck of the protoceratosaurus, then stretched the wound, and then used the flat stone to cut off the flesh inside to eat.
It's also really good at using all kinds of things, so it seems to have a lot of limbs, but these things are still not as convenient as its own limbs, and it is estimated that because of the regular use of these things, the body of the skeleton dragon has become relatively thin, and it cannot fight some carnivorous creatures even if it is about its size.
"Goo! Mutter! Suddenly, there was a creasing cry in the woods, and in the distance in the trees, a small creature was making a call.
It was the sound of a small dinosaur less than twenty centimeters in length, known as the 'Gangsaurus', which screamed as soon as it saw the prey that the skeletal dragon was hunting.
It has only one purpose, to tell other carnivorous creatures that there is something to eat.
Because the Gang Cavity Dragon does not dare to approach the Skeleton Dragon, it will summon some larger carnivorous creatures that allow it to share the soup on the side.
The creatures of this jungle are quite smart.
Lin noticed a noise in the surrounding woodland, and some creatures followed the smell of blood.
The skeleton dragon suddenly tensed, and it pulled out the wooden thorns from the protoceratop, staring intently at the jungle around it...... (To be continued......)
