Chapter 144: Strange Things
Standing in front of the pom-pom is a mountain that rises to a height of thousands of meters, and the rushing river constantly flows from the huge cave below.
Did this river flow out of this mountain? It's also possible that the river just leads to the mountain, but Lin prefers that the secret of the split-brain is in the mountain, so that she doesn't have to run too far.
Looking at the huge cave at the foot of the mountain gushing out of the river, the pompom slowly floated into it.
The cave is quite spacious, not completely shrouded in darkness, at the top of the cave, covered with a galaxy of light, countless small worms weave light sticky filaments on the top of the cave, which are used to hunt other insects that fly into the cave, and even some small pterosaurs.
This kind of Lin has been seen in the underground world of the North Continent, but I didn't expect that there are such similar species here, and the pompom floats slowly, observing and moving forward.
The river in the cave is very fast, and occasionally some large black shadows can be seen swimming through the water, and there are some relatively wide flat rocky banks under the cave walls on both sides, and there are many crocodiles of different sizes lying on them, which seem to be crocodile nests.
So far, nothing has been found, the pom-pom is swimming upstream, and the surrounding environment is getting darker and darker, and there are many small holes in the walls of the cave on both sides, as if leading to other places.
This is...... Signals from brain waves.
Sure enough, it was also found here, the pom-pom floated to the cave wall on the right, and on the damp rocky bank, Lynn saw a red thing.
The pom-pom stretched out its tentacles and grabbed the object into pieces, and then Lynn looked at a cave in front of her that was more than two meters in diameter in the wall.
Is this it?
The pom-pom floated into the cave. There is no light at all here. The pom-pom sticks out with two glowing eyeball tentacles. Observing the surroundings, there are many tiny reptiles in this damp cave, and at the same time, Lin also found a new kind of maoyu here.
It's called Black Maoyu, it looks like a black mass, and now Lin has a new understanding of Maoyu, although this creature is relatively small. But it should be all over the continent, because they are omnivorous and reproduce quickly, they are not at a disadvantage in life.
It didn't take long for Lin to fly inside the cave before she found another crystal, which was also broken into pieces by Lin.
These crystals and the splinter brains in them have decided to destroy it completely, leaving no one behind, this kind of thing has no special value, only to cause trouble, and they are more like shellfish than brains. The crystals are their shells, which then stick out some tentacles to find food. It also has a complete set of life organs, and the part that releases brainwave signals is actually not large.
Flying down the cave into it, the pompoms shattered a lot of crystals one after another, which felt like a bit much, and Lynn wondered if there were any creatures producing these things. A queen left over from the Yate tribe or something? The split brain itself has no ability to reproduce.
Suddenly, a burst of light appeared in front of the pom-pom's eyes, and it seemed that it had reached the exit of the cave, and after the pom-pom passed through guò, a blue sky and a dense jungle, as well as a group of turkey dragons grazing on the ground, appeared in front of Lin's eyes at the same time!
Here it is...... Outside? The pom-pom turned around and saw the mountain, and it seemed that the cave was leading to somewhere at the foot of the mountain, so it seemed that the clue was broken.
Do you want to fly back? Or is it ......
The grazing turkey dragons in front of the pom-pom suddenly raised their heads, and they looked nervously from side to side, then just listened to 'Whoosh! With a thud, a wooden spear flew swiftly and thrust into the middle of the dragons.
The turkey dragon fled in fright, and soon disappeared into the jungle, and after a while, a white skeleton dragon came out of the jungle panting.
It pulled out its spear, which had not been stuck in anything, and was about to turn away when it suddenly noticed a pom-pom floating on the side.
"Gah?" The white skeleton dragon tilted its head and stared at the pom-pom, it had never seen such a creature before, and the two eyeball tentacles of the pom-pom were also looking at it, Lin was thinking that this white skeleton dragon seemed to be quite normal, and it didn't seem to be affected by anything, so it seems that there should be no split brain here.
Suddenly, the white dragon's eyes changed, and it raised its wooden spear and threw it at the pom-pom! But the pom-pom dodged with ease.
Sure enough, it's normal, and I should have left.
Just as Lin was about to fly back into the cave, the white dragon suddenly screamed and pounced, clawing tightly on the pom-pom's fur and trying to press the pom-pom to the ground.
The pom-pom quickly stretched out its tentacles and slapped the white dragon in the face, and the white dragon was immediately screamed and sent away, rolling on the ground before stopping.
"Gah!" The white dragon got up and screamed at the pom-pom, then turned and fled into the jungle......
It seems that there is something abnormal about the aggressive behavior just now? After thinking about it for a while, Lin followed the white dragon, and the white dragon was running quickly in the jungle, and the pom-pom changed color and followed for about a kilometer, and then reached the community where the white dragon was.
It's a community of twenty shacks, which looks pretty normal, but it's ...... Something unusual appeared in Lynn's eyes.
I saw that in the group of shacks, there were more than a dozen white skeleton dragons lying on their stomachs, they were all corpses, and the strangest place was...... Their heads are gone.
The white dragon that Lin followed looked at the corpses of so many companions, and it was also very surprised, and it stayed there for a while, it seemed that this happened during the time when it was away from hunting.
There were a lot of broken spears on the ground, corpses were scattered everywhere, several of the sheds were also damaged, there were obvious signs of a fight everywhere, and then the scar on the neck seemed to be some kind of creature with a large mouth that had bitten off its head......
What creature is so wasteful? Eat only the head and not the corpse?
However, although this thing seems to be interesting, it has nothing to do with Lin's search for the Splinter Brain, and the White Skeleton Dragons don't seem to have built any strange structures, indicating that they are not affected by the Splinter Brain, so they should leave and continue looking elsewhere.
Thinking so, Pom-pom left the village and flew back to the cave he had drilled out earlier, and Lynn planned to return to the river and continue upstream...... What's that?
Lynn suddenly saw a strange creature lying in front of the hole that the pom-pom had come out of, and it was opening its mouth and spitting out some red crystalline fragments into the hole. (To be continued......)
