The new body that Lin has combined is not very different from the previous one.
The main body is a spherical structure, and the outer skin is covered with thorny cell whiskers, which can be used for hunting or swimming. The middle of the body is hollow, which is used to place the loose cells, and an eyeball is combined at the front end of the body. Although smaller than before, it is much larger than the observer.
Behind the body is an elliptical tail composed mainly of muscle cells. The end of the tail has an opening that absorbs water and sprays quickly under the action of muscle cells. This structure allows Lin to accelerate in an instant.
The whole is probably only 30% of the size of the previous base. After all, there are no foods in the caves and rocks except for some wild cells. The white cream that has been emerging has already been cut off, so Lynn can only make such a big combination. .
Lynn decided to call it a 'farmer', which meant that Lynn decided to travel a long distance to find new food and things.
Lin, who thought so, began to swing the tentacles of the far-off person's body, leaving the rock that it did not know how long it took, and marched toward the ocean.
The scenery in the water is still as familiar as Lin, and there is no change. It is vast and empty, and Lin feels uneasy. However, this feeling quickly disappears.
The waters in this area seem to have warmed up, and the surrounding light is getting brighter. Lin found that it is moving unconsciously upstream, the more the direction of gravity is opposite, the increase in water temperature and brightness. The more obvious.
The outer skin of the 'farmer' has hardened, and the harder the outer skin feels more dull to the outside world, but Lin has specially set up two small tentacles composed of basic cells that have not been hardened, placed on the front end of the traveler. This makes it clear to Lin about the temperature changes in the surrounding waters, fluctuations in water flow, and so on.
At this time, the big eyeball at the front of the distance traveler found something. These large greens in front immediately attracted Lin’s attention. It was something that Lin was very familiar with...
Green cells.
These large pieces of devastating oxygen were gathered in the waters in front of Lin, and Lynn noticed that the light there seemed to be special... bright.
The green cells themselves have no attacking power, but the oxygen bubbles they emit have terrifying deadly energy, but now Lin is not afraid of oxygen, so now the meaning of green cells for Lin is only one...
food.
Lin suddenly shrank the tail of the faraway, and the body of the traveler rushed toward the large group of green cells. It waved the tentacles of the body and began to hunt the surrounding green cells!
Green cells do not have any resistance, and the speed is far less than that of Lin's travellers. Lin rushes into their groups and can kill a large green cell with a single stroke.
There is a mouth that can be opened and closed under the eye of the distant traveler. After killing a lot of green cells, Lin will open the mouth to the dead green cells, inhale their wreckage, and use it in the faraway body. The acid decomposes the wreckage and then swallows some of the body's tentacles composed of fat cells.
These steps seem a bit complicated, but they are actually done very quickly, and the nutrients obtained are quickly passed to the entire body of the traveler.
When eating a group of green cells, Lin rushed to the next group. There are quite a lot of green cells in this water area. Lin estimates that there are millions of them. If they eat them up, Lin can add a lot of communities.
The arrival of green cells on the arrival of Lin will be evasive in groups, but their movements are very slow. For Lin, they are just like twisting their bodies. Most of the green cells are almost untouched by Lin. The tentacles are poisoned.
Of course, this is also due to the fact that Lin can use oxygen, which is much faster than before.
Constantly swallowing these cells, Lin began to use nutrients to increase the size of the distant and increase the fat cells in preparation for the next hunting spot.
When hunting green cells, Lin also had some questions. What do these green things feed on? Although it is warmer and brighter, but Lynn does not see any other cells or foods like white paste. Why are they still piled up in this place?
Do they feed on light and temperature?
The front is already the last small group of green cells. Lin has almost eaten them. The waters that were originally greened by them have also restored their empty space and nothingness. Now there are only about a thousand cells left in this small group. The piles were together, there was no escape, no counterattack, which reminded Lin of the previous light bacteria.
But this time, Lin has no feeling of compassion.
However, Lynn does not intend to finish them. Instead, she will use the basic cells to form a semi-circular structure on the outer skin of the distant traveler. The size can accommodate several thousand cells. Lin calls it the 'feeding circle'. The purpose is to catch these green cells and shut them in.
‘Feeding’ seems to be a very fresh and useful word.
There is a muscle cell-controlled opening on the breeding ring, which can inhale the outside, and Lin swims to the remaining small group of green cells, and they are all driven into the breeding circle with tentacles.
The purpose of Lin’s doing this is of course to study them. If the green cells really feed on light and warmth, then Lin will raise them to make them split, which means that there is endless food.
Lin almost drove all the green cells into the circle. The outer layer of the feeding circle was transparent so that light could shine on them. Lin would soon know if the cells could split under light and temperature. .
The inner wall of the breeding ring also combined a small eyeball to observe the activities of this group of green cells, and also ensure that they will not do anything to resist.
After all the processing, Lin once again looked at the empty waters around.
Where should I go?
If there are many green cells in a brighter and warmer place, what about deeper places?
Lin's curiosity drove it to move downstream, although the green cells should be in a well-lit area, but in fact, Lin didn't care too much about whether they could successfully raise them. The desire to explore was a bigger part of Lin's thoughts. .
Thinking, Lin put the head of the traveler down, swinging the tentacles toward the depths of the waters.
As Lin thought, the more the gravity goes downstream, the water temperature will become colder and colder, but Lin still remembers the lava that she has seen before. Now, in retrospect, Lin still doesn't know what it is, but obviously it is Some kind of high temperature thing can heat the whole area.
If it happens again, Lin will definitely avoid it.
After a period of downstream, the eye of the traveler gave Lin's thoughts something familiar with it.
Gravel and cells.
A variety of cells accumulate in this relatively cold water. Unlike the clear green cells seen above, the cells here are not of the same species, and they are gathering together in ethnicity, looking for Food or hunting for each other, and the place where they live is a vast beach.
These gravel are not the same as the gray gravel that Lin had seen before. These sands are white, and they are finer and smaller. The smallest one is only a little bigger than Lin's cells. The largest one is a thousand times. Most of the cells are in the sand. Between the gaps in the middle of the swim, some are a large group of piled up on a large piece of gravel, they are so many, all over the beach where Lin sees.
These cells are good prey, Lin's traveler - it has more than 10 million cells, even the largest cell community here is dwarfed.
Lynn dared to say that no cell is its opponent, but because the faraway is too large and not suitable for moving between the gaps of sand, Lynn needs a more suitable structure to hunt them.
Although you can build a base first, and then use a flashing tentacles to attract other cells close to killing them.
But Lin thinks that it is not active enough. If there is no cell, it will have to go hungry. Lin needs a more active way to hunt...
Soon, Lin thought of a good way, but first had to modify the entire traveler.
Thinking, Lin began to modify the far-offer, it will expand the body of the traveler more, the overall structure is oval, but Lin degraded the tentacles of the body surface, leaving only two flat The longer methods used for swimming and degradation are mainly to let them die, which is a method similar to 'lifetime'.
The swelling is mainly to let the cortical cells continue to split, broaden the entire body shape, the transformation needs to consume a lot of energy, but there are so many foods below it is obviously worthwhile.
Then Lynn began to make several holes in the cortex that were controlled by muscle cells and arranged neatly. They were of different sizes and were mainly used for various units.
What is a force?
Lin is now combining them in the faraways. The so-called 'forces' are mainly small cell combinations, but they are composed of cone-shaped cells, thorn cells or acid-killing cells, and they use them to go to the gap of sand. In the middle or swim to the distance to hunt other cells, the obtained loot is transported back to the body of the traveler and stored as nutrients.
At this time, the traveler is like a previous base, as a storage point for resources, but unlike the 'base' that was previously stuck on the rock and can only passively wait for the food to pass through, this 'base' can be moved, and the way of hunting Also active.
At the same time, it should not be called a traveler.
Lynn has a new word to name it...
‘aircraft carrier’.
