188 Insect Invasion (20)
"That's just a possibility, maybe there are scientific principles that we can't explain about the planet's magnetic field, energy patterns, etc., and insects reproduce faster and mutate more easily. Some viewers in our live broadcast room said that the specimens they have seen are much smaller than the ones we see now, so I think it cannot be ruled out that these insects and beasts have changed after they came. Yao Fei'er couldn't stop talking about academic issues, and briefly talked about all the insects and beasts they had encountered before, and the more she chatted with Lu Jingjing, the more professional she became.
Li Sa and Li Tianya don't understand so much at all, the same problem, the three of them discussed it before, and it was just some derivations at the ordinary level. Lu Jingjing is not only familiar with the human body and medicine, but also has sufficient knowledge reserves in biology and chemistry, and she can not only understand Yao Feier's whimsy, but also expand it to a deeper and more reasonable perspective from a professional perspective.
So the more the two women talked, the more speculative they became, and gradually entered the mode of selfless academic discussion.
Li Tianya said: "We thought we were bringing newcomers, but we didn't expect that it was just to train an academic partner for Dr. Yao. ”
Li Sa smiled and nodded.
She can't understand so many academic issues herself, and it must be more reliable for someone to study than for everyone to think about it. Although there is a certain description of the size of the insect beast in the interstellar insect beast atlas, there is a huge range of estimates in terms of body size. Just like the cockroaches in the south and the north, they are both cockroaches, and the size of the two is very different.
At first, Li Sa didn't care too much about such a difference in size, but now listening to them talk, she couldn't help but start thinking, did the insect beast also have this huge size before coming to this planet? Or did they become like this after they invaded and were affected by this planet? If humans have been in this environment for a long time, will there be some kind of mutation?
"Look, something has fallen from the sky." Li Tianya pointed to a rapidly falling fire in the west.
Yao Fei'er controlled the high-altitude detection device to track and observe for a while, and said with certainty: "It is a flying vehicle, much larger than my probe, and similar in size to a small manned aerospace equipment. Maybe it's something made by other players, or the indigenous civilizations of this world, or it could be the spaceships of insects and beasts. Fell more than fifty kilometers away from us, are we going to take a look? It happened to be at the foot of the highest peak nearby. ”
Li Tianya took out two mountain bikes and said, "It won't take long to ride a motorcycle for more than 50 kilometers, before we go, let's go to the lake to hunt and replenish some meat." Now it looks like at the beginning of the planet's 'daylight' period, there should be some creatures coming to the lake to drink water. ”
Li Sa had been guarding the lake for a long time in her previous life, and she knew very well that most insects and beasts, especially the big ones, would go to the lake to drink water. No matter how terrifying they look and how tough and hard they look, they are actually carbon-based creatures, and their huge bodies have a strong need for water.
The four of them reached a consensus and decided to go to the water's edge first.
In view of the level of everyone riding motorcycles, Li Sa took Yao Fei'er in his car, and Lu Jingjing in Litianya's car.
Li Tianya could clearly feel Lu Jingjing's restraint, her hands did not touch Li Tianya's body at all, and she was helpless to put it on both sides, the road was bumpy, and when the car was bumpy, she only held on to a metal behind her to stabilize herself.
Li Tianya clearly felt that Lu Jingjing was very wary of men, but from beginning to end, Lu Jingjing expressed that she was obedient to the arrangement of the "organization" and did not raise any objections. This shows that Lu Jingjing gets along with people very measured, has a strong heart, and is not the kind of casual clinging to men, which makes Li Tianya feel more at ease to get along with him.
From this position, they can ride a motorcycle for ten minutes to the largest lake, and they are afraid of disturbing other creatures, so they have stopped their motorcycles a few hundred meters away, put the car into the space, and try to hide themselves and approach quietly.
Li Sa and Yao Fei'er went up to the big tree to observe in the distance, while Li Tianya and Lu Jingjing stayed by the tree to guard against the surroundings.
"I saw a huge dragonfly perched on a bush at the water's edge." Yao Fei'er pointed to the direction of the lake, which was closer to them.
Li Sa and Yao Fei'er's eyesight is about the same, but she didn't use her eyes much, but concentrated on marking the brainwave energy, and did not find any lifeforms with brainwave energy higher than 4 for the time being, and these brainwave energies are very scattered, not very like a horde of social insects and beasts.
The big dragonfly pointed out by Yao Fei'er has just reached 4 in terms of brainwave energy, which is one of the few creatures that exposes its body. Probably because this insect beast can fly and reacts quickly, it dares to come to the lake to drink water?
The body of this large dragonfly is more than half a meter long, and the whole body is mainly black, and the sound of flapping its wings can be heard in them here. Other life forms are lurking, and they are not as obvious as large dragonflies, and it is difficult for the naked eye to detect them at once.
The lake seems to be very peaceful and calm, but in fact it is full of dangers, and Yao Fei'er's aerial surveillance indicates that the slow-moving creature is gradually approaching the big black dragonfly.
However, the four of them could not observe anything close to the dragonfly with the naked eye for the time being, and the brainwave energy of those things could not reach the marked level, so they could only guess that it might be some kind of low-level insect beast. Not only is it invisible to the human eye, but even the compound eyes of the giant dragonfly don't seem to notice the problem.
At this time, there was a big red dragonfly, it flew from not far away, it looked similar to the black dragonfly species, the brainwave energy was about the same, and the sound of the two dragonflies flapping their wings had a sense of communication and interaction.
At this moment, a long forked tongue suddenly appeared in the bush where the two large dragonflies landed. This tongue is a match for the tongue of a longtongue, but the color is dark purple, like an enlarged version of a forked tongue like a python. This also indicates that the size of this creature may not be small.
The two big dragonflies were so frightened that their wings flapped wildly, but the wings of the black one were firmly wrapped in the tongue, and it was estimated that there was mucus, and the more they struggled, the more the wings could not break free, so that a piece of the wings was torn apart.
As a sapient living being, the big red dragonfly did not fly away, but tried to pull the black dragonfly with its broken wings, as if to rescue it, and its expression was reminiscent of the mutual help between humans when it was in distress. Although their brainwave energy is not high, and they do not have the scale of social insects, they have certain behavioral differences from lower life forms.
But another long, dark purple tongue emerged from the bushes. Raided the big red dragonfly that was still helping the big black dragonfly, and they couldn't help but continue to struggle, and soon, they were caught in the mouths of the two giant insect beasts.
Even if they have intelligence, they will still be unable to escape death when facing cold and powerful low-level insect beasts.
Li Sa thought to himself, no wonder there are so few insects and beasts by the lake, there is more than one such monster hidden in the bushes, no matter how dexterous the insects and beasts are, even if they can fly, they can't be beaten, and they eventually become people's rations.
Perhaps just after eating, two huge figures gradually appeared in the bushes.
