Vol 4 Chapter 12: Desert ecology

Lin's flight crew saw that a huge creature rushed out of the ground, and almost caught the dragon's dune monitor lizard in the mouth.
It is a huge worm, the giant worm has not disappeared! They may be more resistant to hypoxic conditions than the limbs. The worms look a lot like foggy worms. The carapace and the mouth are both. They should all be classified as one of the giant worms. There are also distributions here.
The dune monitor lizard struggled in the mouth of the worm, but it didn't work. It was slowly swallowed by the worm, and the worm returned to the ground.
The dragon was saved again. It gasped and looked at the cave where the worm broke into it, and fell to the ground exhausted.
The shadows of the wilderness under the scorching sun flew around the black shadows. A large group of scavenged pterosaurs were coiled in the air, waiting for the creature to become a corpse.
Giant Pulse also likes to do this kind of thing. The creatures that have been lost in some deserts are waiting for it to die. This kind of flying creature character looks very similar...
After a dozen seconds, Xiaolong struggled to climb up. After climbing to the shadow of a rock, he squatted down again to rest. It was too tired, but before that, it had to pull out the leg. Some small barbed that are stuck.
Lynn calls this thorn ball a 'hook blood ball', a plant seed. The plant propagation here is much better than the twisted tree. They grow this kind of barbed seed to catch the passing creature, usually down. The hook will plunge into the flesh of the creature, and then will the blood of the creature to grow and grow. This is a creature similar to the plague fungus, but it will start to fall off the biological epidermis and fall to the ground after the seedling.
Lin's flightman also got some hooked blood cells. However, the anti-flyer swallowed up with a large number of small multicellular organisms.
It is not this small creature that the pilot has to worry about. But rather big...
'Snapped! ’
The pilot violently his wings. I have escaped a rushing creature. This creature is called 'Red Crowned Pterosaur'. It looks like a name, has a red crown, and has a wingspan of about two meters, almost twice the size of a flying person. Most importantly, this creature can detect a flying person in a discolored state.
The empty red-crowned pterosaur suddenly stopped the body. It screamed, and the sky flew over five similar ones. They swung their wings and opened their sharp mouths toward the plane.
It seems that the pilot can't stay here quietly...
The pilot hurriedly slammed four scorpion-like membrane wings into the pterosaurs. As he approached the pterosaurs, he suddenly walked sideways between the two pterosaurs and flew high into the sky.
Several pterosaurs immediately turned to catch up, and they seemed to refuse to give up. Under the scorching sun, they did not give up chasing the pilots.
The pilot flew over a huge rock pillar on the plain, and several red-crowned pterosaurs followed. But at the moment when the pilots flew up the stone pillars, they all turned scared and flew away.
Above the stone pillars. Perched on a larger pterosaur, which has a width of about seven meters, this large pterosaur can easily let other pterosaurs not approach, but... it is not necessarily safe.
When the pilot flew to it, he suddenly turned his head, and opened his sharp mouth and bite the rushing flying man. This pterosaur is called the 'bomb pterosaur'. It has no teeth, but it is constantly Force the pilot to squeeze into the stomach.
Lin asked the pilot to curl the wings and the tail, completely shrinking the body into a ball, and sticking a small barb on the cortex. Lin hooked the hook to the stomach of the bomb pterosaur, and the cortex also secreted a Mucus to prevent dissolution by gastric acid.
As a result, the pilot begins to slowly decompose itself in the body and begins to change into another unit.
Before being swallowed, the pilot released a small eyeball that would float and watch the pterosaur outside.
The bomb pterosaur is completely unaware of the changes in the stomach. It crawls slowly on the rock pillars with a diameter of about ten meters. The pterosaurs usually crawl with their limbs. Because the forelimbs are connected with a large wing membrane, they climb quite slowly.
The bomb pterosaur climbed over a globular plant unique to the top of the rock pillar. It raised its head and slammed the globular plant with a long mouth. The plant suddenly blew out, and there were countless tiny seeds inside. Spilled out like an explosion, at the moment the plant exploded, the pterosaur also spread its wings and rose into the sky with the help of impact.
This is why it is called the 'bomb pterosaur'. It likes to take off with the plants that will explode and spread the seeds. Although it can fly by itself, it saves a lot of effort.
After the bomb pterosaur flew around the rock pillar, it fluttered its wings and flew away into the desert.
The small eyeball floating outside can not keep up with the speed of the pterosaur, but it has already stuck to the pterosaur's head just before the pterosaur flies, and now the pilot slowly begins to deform in the pterosaur's body, and here For a while, Lin used this eyeball to observe this world of giant reptiles.
The bomb pterosaur flies under the scorching sun of the desert. This wilderness is full of vitality. It is completely different from the jungle that twists the jungle. Under the pterosaur, there are a large group of dinosaurs called big goose dragons. They are being The two larger carnivores chased, and the slowest one was eventually captured by the carnivorous dragon. Under the screaming sound, its flesh was torn apart piece by piece.
The pterosaur flew over the heads of the two carnivorous dragons and flew over another rocky column full of tall grasses. Countless small pterosaurs flew from the grass, and there was a huge and long full moon. The toothed plant rushed out of the haystack, and it almost bit the bomb pterosaur.
This place is really full of danger...
The pterosaur flies over the rock pillars. In front of the pterosaurs is a spacious river that crosses the desert. The river is very clear and the flow rate is very gentle. It attracts many creatures to drink water. The pterosaur is also one of them. The bomb pterosaur Fly to the side of the river, gather the wide wings, and the clear water in the lake.
At the side of the pterosaur, there is a group of large horned dragons called 'multiple dragons' who are also drinking water. Lin found that for quite a few dinosaurs, their names can be found in their thoughts, but some of them are directly from Lin. From the beginning.
These large horned dragons weighing more than three tons were crowded and squeezed by the river. They did not notice that there was a huge shadow in the water watching them.
Suddenly, a pair of scorpions that are full of teeth are rushing out of the river, but its target is not the dragons but the pterosaurs in the river.
The pterosaur reacted almost instantaneously. It unfolded its wings and took a few steps to escape the attack of the monster in the water, and then it flew to the sky again...
After leaving the river, the pterosaurs flew over the rock pillars, crossed the wilderness, crossed a large group of dome dragons, and finally, near the night, landed on a boulder standing in the wilderness, preparing to rest.
Then it is dead.
The pterosaur fell on the rock, and the breathing stopped. It seemed to be in a state of death, but in fact, its body was in intense activity...
This state lasted for a few thousand seconds. Suddenly, the pterosaur moved again. Its wings and body all grew a lot of jagged scales, and the head was completely surrounded by a black shell. This pterosaur It became an unrecognizable creature.
It stretched its wings, tried to fan it up and flew up, but it fell from the rock and fell on the sand below.
Sure enough, it can't fly like this.
Lin just let the flyer dissolve the structure inside the pterosaur, and then try to modify its entire body, such as some scales or carapace on the body surface.
The pterosaurs are extremely common creatures in the air of this continent. Their structures are very light, generally hollow skeletons, and the outer skin is not scaled and thin, so I want to try it, plus how to scale.
But it doesn't seem to fly.
The pterosaur and the dragon are very different. The dragon's body has floating airbags that can support a larger and heavier body.
But the more fragile pterosaurs are everywhere, and the dragons are almost extinct, and it feels wonderful.
Let's go back and look at it now. I don't know how it happened.
During the flight of the pterosaurs, Lin’s flighters encountered some troubles in the distant seas...
Lin did not calculate the island of this fungus. It is probably the first one. There may be more than a dozen islands. During this time, Neil’s flightrs went to quite a few islands, and phage were placed on these islands. Let them slowly swallow the fungus on the entire island.
When Lin first started attacking the island with phage, these fungi had little resistance. They only waited to be swallowed up slowly, but recently Lin attacked many islands and some of the fungi on the island began to fight back. It is.
For example, the island.
Ten flying people found the circular island about 30 meters in diameter in the night sky. The whole island was covered with hyphae, so Lin was ready to attack the island.
The pilots swooped down from the sky, and Lin found that the island had many huge velvet-like structures that began to expand as the pilot approached and then swelled to the extreme... ‘Boom! ’
A large number of thorns are sprinkled like raindrops. These thorns are composed of various things such as stones, bones, and wood chips. Some of the smashers are pierced by the thorns and the wings. Drop it down.
But it doesn't make much sense to do this because it doesn't hurt the phage in the flying body. The phage can still crawl out of the flight and devour the nearby fungus.
However, this kind of counterattack can also prove that even if there is no control of the creature, the fungus will think about it, and think of the corresponding method. The most important thing is that when Lin attacked an island, the fungi of other islands would know... ...
