Turbid, nothing, quiet.
Lin is so appreciative of the moon.
Leviathan is now slowly groping the surrounding environment in the dark waters, moving here is more dangerous than moving in the storm above.
...but this is just a feeling. In fact, it is very calm under the deep sea of the moon. It is far from the storm on the sea. Everything has become quiet. Only the bang of the times can be heard from time to time.
‘Boom...’ Now, the voice rang again.
It seems to be from the seabed, but there is no abnormality around it. Leviathan is now slowly swimming over a trench.
The sea here is very turbid, and there are tiny particles floating around the sea, just like the dust in the air.
It’s not yet known where the particles come from, but it also causes a mixture of toxins in the sea that can’t resist even the creatures on the moon...
Therefore, there are no creatures here, and the decomposable substances in Shanghai are rare, so there are not even fungi.
The water in the island of Ash Island is filtered through the inner structure of the island, so there will be biological accumulation.
In this sea area, there is nothing but silence. But there are still some special things in this seabed.
Leviathan swam to the edge of the trench and stretched out his tentacles and gently hit the seabed.
The action of the tentacle provoked a large amount of mud, and the tentacles moved quickly, digging all the surrounding mud, and the mud on the seabed had accumulated a lot, but it seems to be due to the flow of water. The dust has not reached a very thick level. The tentacle excavated almost two meters deep. The light that Leviathan emits in the light of the rocks.
On this rock, there are many protruding outlines.
These contours are only a few centimeters long. After sweeping the dust, you can see their clear traces. These things are round, long, and various.
They are fossils.
And there are some similarities to the moon creatures that are seen today, albeit in different forms. However, the composition of the shells in fossils is very similar to the composition of the shells of those previously on the island of Ash.
They are probably creatures in an evolutionary system, but these are more primitive and smaller in the sea.
If you dig up the dust in other places around you, you can also find some similar fossils. Their forms are extremely rich. At present, Leviathan is swimming while digging, and now hundreds of creatures have been discovered.
All this shows that... This sea used to be a very rich place. Perhaps the previous environment was not like this, but a good area. When did the environment change dramatically?
The formation time of these fossils is not clear, because the shells are left behind. The detection of the internal components of these shells is difficult, and the measurement on the pompons is different.
Although the fossil is rich under fossils. But there is no creature in the mud, which was originally a place where bacteria are particularly easy to collect, but every time I searched, Lin felt a little disappointed.
But now Leviathan is only exploring a part of the ocean, and there are other places that have not been visited...
Leviathan now swam through the previous trench and entered a place where stone pillars stood everywhere...
In the dark and impurity-filled seawater, Leviathan uses sound to detect the surrounding environment. These pillars are actually small islands that extend all the way to the surface of the sea. I don't know why this strange stone pillar is formed.
The outlines of some fossils can also be seen around these pillars...
Leviathan observed these stone pillars, and Lin found that some of the fossils were somewhat close to the original creatures on the pompons.
‘咕’.
Suddenly, Leviathan heard a sound coming from nearby. According to the probe, it was a few blisters, and a relatively large thing...
Leviathan turned and looked into the distance. The light from Leviathan could only shine in the dusty sea. In this sly, I could see a strange object in the sea. Bed.
Leviathan swam past, and under the clear light, Lynn saw... a skeleton.
It was the creature that I had seen on the island full of debris...
But this time there are more bones, not only skulls, but also the bones of the body. The skeleton of the body looks completely sealed, like an armor wrapped around the internal organs, not like the creatures on the pompons. That one by one.
Lin can be sure that this is the skeleton rather than the outer shell. According to some traces left above, as well as the ratio of the sternum and the skull, it can be seen that there is a layer of skin outside.
This bone is much larger than the one that Lynn found last on the Shard Island, but they are in the same shape, maybe the one on the island is a baby.
The composition of this skeleton... is not the same as the shell of the moon creature. There are no cells inside, and unlike the pompon creatures, I like to put the immune organs and hematopoietic organs in the bones...
This bone has no limbs, but has a body and a head, but there are some traces on it, and even some dander on the bones. It can be seen that its skin is hard, and...
Lin felt that this creature had only died for a long time, and it was not poisonous dust but another creature that killed it.
‘咕’. There was a sound of bubbles around, and Leviathan looked around. Although there was a hustle and bustle around, Lin was very clear about everything here...
A creature is hiding behind a stone pillar, it seems to be looking at it all...
But it didn't know that Leviathan was watching it.
This creature has no limbs, like a squid. It is ten meters long and has a body diameter of more than one meter. The shape of its head is consistent with the skull of the bone that is now seen.
It turns out that... It seems that this skeleton is only a small part, is it so long in the whole body?
Thinking, Leviathan suddenly rushed to the position of this creature, and this creature suddenly turned and fled to the distance as soon as he was shocked.
It's quite fast, there is a hundred meters in almost two seconds, it is constantly moving at this speed, and Leviathan is also chasing behind, then it passes through the previous trench, this creature instantly swims Into the trench, and continue to escape to the depths.
The width of the trench is only two meters. Leviathan is too big to enter, but... Lin has already targeted this creature.
‘Hey! ’
After a dull sound, a sharp object instantly passed through the sea and was directly tied to the back of the creature. Its figure suddenly slammed and stopped in the water... (To be continued, please search for astronomy) The novel is better updated faster!
