In the spring, the desert is as usual, and it is dyed green by the endlessly growing vines. In the new fern forest, there are many creatures screaming, but now...
Become quiet...
Not only the desert, but also the twisted jungle. It was originally the season of breeding, but there was no creature fighting, no screaming, nothing, only the smell of pervaded carrion, long time.
The reptiles only occupy a small part of the large arthropods, they can't be added to the environment, so after the disaster, the entire jungle is very empty and quiet...
The large arthropods have disappeared. The jungle can now be said to be a forest of plants and fungi, plus a small number of reptiles. The number of reptiles should increase due to the loss of natural enemies, but before that. Lin only waits...what?
There is also an area where Lin's oxygen fortress is filled with normal sounds. Some large creatures wake up from inside. They don't seem to have found that the world around them has changed. They are active in large bodies, lazily strolling in the jungle, trying to Wake up in a long sleep.
'Boom'.
There is a scorpion-type creature that hits the 'wall' on the edge of the oxygen fortress. This creature is one of the descendants of the descendants of the desert scorpion that Lin had encountered a long time ago, because Lin made the transparency of the shell. It was very high, so it didn't seem to be discovered until it was just awake, but it was hit several times in a row, and it was found that it was impossible to move forward before it circumvented this weird place.
Not only the desert scorpion, but also in the transparent shell hood. There are often crashing sounds. Some bee creatures are constantly hitting the transparent cover wall. It seems that they are very confused why they can't fly.
This is not surprising, because they have not been trapped like this, but Lynn has found that some creatures have even hit the blood, so it is not quite appropriate.
Moreover, not only will there be sounds coming out, but outside, occasionally there will be some huge stones falling down...
'boom! ’
A huge stone smashed on the outer shell of the oxygen fortress, causing a loud bang to scare away a few bee creatures that hit the wall.
Twisted in the jungle. There are such huge roars everywhere, and the moon is slowly moving away.
Through each night, Lin can clearly see that the beginning of the month has become smaller and smaller, and the influence on the stone has slowly lost its effect.
Lin began to think that Mingshi may slowly drop height, not cause any huge damage, or fall all together at a certain time, which causes great damage. But that's it.
But in fact the above two are not, but more strange.
After the month begins to get smaller. The stone suddenly lost its buoyancy piece by piece... This is really quite sudden.
The singer that suddenly loses its buoyancy will fall from the sky, irregular and unpredictable. Lin’s projections may be related to the surface activities of the moon. These boulder falling from the sky occasionally pose a deadly threat, whether it is a creature on the stone or The creature in the jungle below.
However, Lin has not seen the whole drop of Daming Stone Island. The largest falling rock is no more than ten meters in diameter. If it exceeds it, it will peel off little by little, instead of falling down, so at least Will not cause a wide range of casualties.
Because of this strange way of losing buoyancy, there is often a huge noise in the jungle. Lin’s oxygen fortress is not so easy to be opened because of the special reinforcement of the spider silk, but it is still cracked, and Lin needs Use the sheller to repair it, and Lin uses the air force to push the stone above.
The brain worm also rolled down from the empty boat, just like when it was diving, let the empty boat stop on the water and then roll into the water, but this time it didn't roll in the water for too long, but started near the canyon. Built a new rock mountain, ready to live near here...
The mood of the brain worm is not very good. It is uncomfortable with this silent jungle filled with carrion smell. Because there is no prey, they can't hunt. Although the brain worm can be planted, they are mainly based on hunting. Now The brain worm appears to be very depressed, which may last for a long time.
Lin got a guess that the brains will see the evolution of the future creatures. Only when I see this, the brainworms will become excited.
But it also became more like to stay in the rock, not like the previous roll.
Lin is not so boring, Lin let a lot of snowballs float in the jungle, and all the things happening in the forest are recorded, recording the changes of the whole jungle...
In addition to the twisted jungle and spreading fungi, some small creatures were found to be active in the forest. They are...artropods.
A group of small cockroaches ran quickly in front of Lin, and this strange phenomenon suddenly caught Lin’s attention.
These cockroaches are a large-scale arthropod descendant named ‘question 蠊 big ,’, because the name has ‘? 'The symbol, but the focus is not this. Many of the arthropods have the habit of 'carrying the eggs for the winter', that is, spawning at the end of the summer, allowing the eggs to hatch again after passing through the winter in the ground. It is obvious that these hatching cockroaches have nothing. The problem is that they can live in this environment.
Lin suddenly found that there was such a scene everywhere in the jungle. Small arthropods began to appear. They climbed out of the snow-melting ground and rushed to the world of large-scale arthropods with a small body. ......
The arthropods are not extinct. Some of the species that Lin thought they will disappear forever, such as Ma Lu, 蜈蚣, 蟑螂, 蟋蟀, spiders, etc., have emerged from the ground. Their small size makes them need very little oxygen. Can live safely.
But what happens after that? Will these youngsters grow up sooner or later?
Time, gave Lin the answer.
Lin specially selected some fast-growing creatures to observe, a kind of creature called 'Golden Spider'. After more than ten days and nights, these creatures should have grown to more than one meter, but they did not, but they have been maintained. A little bigger than a baby...
It turns out that because there is not enough oxygen, their bodies stop growing, but they remain at a young stage, and their reproductive organs will mature and can be directly propagated in this body type.
In this case, does oxygen not cause extinction, but shrinks their size? (To be continued, please search for astronomical literature, the novel is better updated faster!
