Chapter 278: Longwave Communications

Tian Xu withdrew his attention to himself, and sure enough, he found a similar signal! Now he understood that this signal was not a five-sense signal in the traditional sense, it was a type of signal that he had never paid attention to—bioelectricity!

After noticing this, Tian Xu relied on the ability of the domain to carefully distinguish the bioelectric field emitted by himself, and found that it was indeed much stronger than those emitted by the scallops, and the detectable range was at least beyond the coverage of the entire spiritual realm, which was much larger than the range of about two meters from the scallops.

Tian Xu didn't know if it was because of his large size, so the strength of the bioelectric field was also large, and there were no animals that could be compared for a while, so it was difficult to judge.

He tried to control his bioelectric field through the field, and after several efforts, the range of the bioelectric field was suppressed to within a foot, and the scallops could not feel their electric field, so they relaxed and resumed eating.

Seeing that the method was effective, Tian Xu boldly approached the scallop group, and quietly compared the bioelectric field emitted by the scallops of different body types, and found that there was indeed a difference, but the difference was quite small, the scallop with the size of the basin, and the bioelectric field emitted by the scallop larger than the fist, was only about 30% larger, and it seemed that the main factor affecting the range of the bioelectric field was the difference in biological species. If you encounter other creatures in the future, you should pay special attention to them.

Subsequently, Tian Xu stayed in the scallop group for a period of time by hiding his bioelectric field signal to study the characteristics of these mutant scallops. Through observation, he found that in addition to the special ability to perceive the bioelectric field, their bioelectric fields are intertwined with each other, forming a network that is almost connected into a whole.

This reticulated bioelectric field unites the group of hundreds of scallops into a single unit, like the neural network of a giant organism, allowing them to act in unison.

Tian Xu recalled the performance of these scallops when they attacked those sharks just now, the scallops waited for the sharks to completely enter the encirclement of the scallop group, and then launched the attack, not when the scallops in the marginal position felt the shark approaching, and before the attack, the scallops that were far away from the shark also moved to both sides of the shark, as if they were completing the encirclement of the shark, which was obviously not an independent act of an individual, but an organized act completed by the entire group. So these scallops, is it a kind of group life?

Tian Xu carefully observed and analyzed the bioelectric signals communicated between these scallops, hoping to interpret the information exchanged between them, but he didn't have any clue for a while. Later, he raised his position a little, slightly away from the scallops, and then condensed his field into a fan-shaped projection to observe the scallops as a whole. These scallops occupy an area of about 30 meters on the bottom of the sea, which was already beyond his domain, and after doing so, he finally managed to include the entire scallop colony into his domain. By looking at it as a whole, he quickly discovered something special about the scallop colony.

These scallop groups form a whole formation, and through this formation, they direct the movement of each individual scallop in the group. Scallops don't seem to have formed a group will, like that of the highland jade bee or the shizhi. After all, their numbers are too small, only a few hundred, to exert a decisive influence on the more powerful individuals. Their groups are more of a collaborative relationship.

He observed the scallops for nearly an hour, and as he was about to finish his observation, he suddenly noticed that the scallop colony was emitting an electromagnetic signal in a specific set of directions. This signal is emitted by the bioelectric field of the scallop population, has a relatively fixed frequency, and is directional, and the direction of the signal is the direction of the deep sea. This set of signals lasted for almost a minute, and he was shocked all at once, it was obviously a means of communication, but it was not known who was on the other end of the communication.

The frequency of this communication signal is lower than the communication signal between them, Tian Xu estimates that the wavelength should be tens of meters to hundreds of meters, according to the classification of electromagnetic waves by human beings, it belongs to the range of medium and long waves, and it should be able to be transmitted to a relatively distant place.

Tian Xu's spiritual realm recorded this set of signals completely, but it couldn't be deciphered. It's no wonder that it's not so easy to decipher the communication signals of another creature. However, this incident proves a problem from the side, that is, this group of scallops has thoughts, but he has not yet figured out whether the thoughts of the scallops are the will of the group or the will of one of the "king" individuals. He again analyzed the bioelectric field that grouped the scallops into a whole, and did not find any significant difference in the electric field of any scallops, and it seems that they are more likely to have the will of the group.

As the highest mammals, it took a long time for humans to evolve, and it was not until 200 years ago that radio communication was invented. Now that we know how to communicate remotely, can we think that these scallops already belong to higher lifeforms?

Tian Xu, who was a medical student, suddenly thought of a question, human nerve signals are also transmitted through bioelectricity, so is spiritual cultivation the cultivation of bioelectric field? Is his spiritual realm a kind of bioelectric field? Is the communication of thoughts similar to the electromagnetic wave communication that these scallops are doing? If all this is real, then how can a cultivator face such a powerful electromagnetic attack as the Thunder Tribulation? He was at a loss for a moment, and he was a little stupid.

After a while, a set of electromagnetic signals with a longer wavelength suddenly came from a distance. If Tian Xu hadn't been tracking the scallop's communication wholeheartedly, he would probably have ignored this set of signals, because the wavelength was too long, almost reaching nearly a kilometer. At this time, he had already added electromagnetic signals and bioelectric field signals to the category of olfactory imaging, although he was not skilled enough, but after turning on the inverted color mode, he still clearly felt the absorption of this long wave signal by the scallop group, which was obviously receiving this set of signals.

"Is this a response to the signal that the scallop colony has just sent? But the two are not on the same frequency. Tian Xu was a little unsure. But then he was relieved. His thinking is still stuck in the mode of human use of electromagnetic signals. The method of receiving electromagnetic signals by humans is to achieve resonance after tuning, and then amplify the signal and interpret it. But these scallops obviously do not amplify the signal, they directly feel the electromagnetic signal, and the requirements for consistent wavelength are not so high, and they obviously have another way to identify the signal.

Nowadays, the earth's surface is full of electromagnetic signals in all corners, and if these scallops are in such a place, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be disturbed. But this is located on the seabed at a depth of more than 1,000 meters, and the electromagnetic pollution caused by humans on the surface of the earth is isolated by the thick seawater, and it is basically impossible to receive those interference signals caused by humans, which makes this kind of seabed communication can be carried out without interference, and Tian Xu is glad for these scallops.

However, he always had a familiar feeling when he recalled the long-wave electromagnetic signals coming from afar. God knows, he has just learned to distinguish electromagnetic signals, how can he be familiar with that set of signals?

At that moment, he felt a slight palpitation, and the summoning signal from the deep sea came again. After realizing the electromagnetic communication, this time he clearly distinguished, this summoning signal should be a long wave, an electromagnetic wave with a longer wavelength than the one that had just been transmitted to the scallops! He instantly understood that this ideological signal that summoned him to the deep sea was this long-wave electromagnetic wave! And the communication with this group of scallops was also a similar electromagnetic wave!

Who is emitting this electromagnetic wave? Is it another group of scallops, or is it another deep-sea creature? What is the purpose of its summoning itself to the deep sea? Judging from the situation of this group of scallops that live by luring and hunting, I am afraid that this mysterious creature is not at ease when it summons itself.

Tian Xu carefully experienced the difference between this summoning signal and when he was in the shallow sea, and found that the difference was not obvious. He had already dived more than a thousand meters, and at the same time swam nearly a hundred kilometers in the direction of the far shore, and he did not feel the change in the strength of the summoning signal, which meant that he was still far from the location where the signal was sent, at least for now, he didn't have to worry too much. The propagation distance of this long wave is quite long, and if it is not in the seawater, this long wave will not decay much after a few circles around the earth.

With the help of the field, he carefully experienced the way this summoning signal affected him, and found that this electromagnetic signal, with the help of its periodic electromagnetic oscillation, would cause the bioelectric field in his body to produce a synchronous oscillation similar to the tidal action, this oscillation was very hidden, if he hadn't encountered this group of mutated scallops here, I am afraid he would not have noticed it. This tidal oscillation will produce a hypnosis-like emotion in oneself, unconsciously immersing oneself in it, and then moving closer to the direction from which the summoning came from.

This is a very clever way to influence other animals, it does not need to be common language, nor does it need to transmit ideas, as long as you find the right frequency, you can affect the person or animal that receives the signal, so that Tian Xu attaches great importance to it. He decided to verify the effect of different frequencies as soon as possible, and if this thing was applied, it would definitely be useful as a way to communicate with animals. This approach may even further affect the plants.

Thinking about the possibility of communicating with animals through similar long-wave electromagnetic waves, or hypnotizing animals, or even enemies, Tian Xu couldn't help but be a little fascinated. It's no wonder he can't calm down, the idea is too tempting. Imagine that when fighting against the Demon Beasts, if he launched this kind of offensive, the Demon Beasts turned against each other and attacked their own kind or Demon Cultivators, that scene would ......
