"Are those glowing bacteria poisonous?" Leah whispered.
Zero shook his head and said, "look carefully, not all moles are dead."
Sure enough, only some moles died, but some moles were infected with luminescent bacteria, but they did not die and still ate full mycorrhiza. After a full meal, they walked around slowly, but turned a blind eye to the bodies of their own kind. After being eaten by giant rats, the dried mushrooms began to produce a thin fibrous membrane to seal the "wound".
Look at the dead moles. Their bodies are rotting. The decay rate is very fast, and the changes that can be completed in a few days can be completed in just a few tens of seconds. However, on the rotten body, the luminescent bacteria gradually disappeared. Instead, there are some small bacterial buds, which further decompose the mole's body and turn these animals into fertilizer for the land.
"Symbiotic system." Moni suddenly said: "During my two years in the dark earth, I have also seen some plants use this method to prolong the lives of themselves and their offspring. They will attract nearby animals with aroma or color, and then sprinkle seeds on these animals. Some animals will die for no reason, and their bodies become fertilizer for plants. But others can survive, and they can get To the gift of plants. "
"The surviving animals leave soon and take the plant seeds to other places to reproduce their offspring. Amanda calls this symbiotic system for plants," mone said finally.
"We don't want to eat these giant mushrooms. I hope they don't treat us as animals." Jin looked at the glowing mushrooms on the giant mushroom cap on his head with great concern for fear that they would fall down.
Everyone laughed at it. Moni said, "don't worry. Plants can tell whether you are their eater by smell. If not, they won't waste seeds on you."
"Plants can also distinguish smell. The world is crazy." Jin is a little crazy.
Zero shrugged and said, "has the world ever been normal?"
Suddenly, some giant mushrooms hundreds of steps away changed the color of the luminescent bacteria on their caps. No matter what color they used to be, they gradually dimmed and then lit up a bright red color. No matter how they looked, it was like a plant alarm. When they found the change of the color of the luminescent bacteria, some moles raised their heads warily, then "squeaked" and turned around and ran away.
Something's coming!
The thought began, and a cry like a blue whale sounded from the dark. With the sound of breaking the air, it was like something passing through the space at high speed. Unfortunately, the things in the dark were too far away to see each other.
A mole seemed frightened. He was dizzy and ran in the direction of zero. Zero looked at him and was ready to kill the fat mouse, otherwise it would attract unknown creatures. But before he could make a move, an octopus like tentacle suddenly jumped out of the darkness. It passed through many giant mushrooms, smart as a snake, and beat the mole accurately.
The ground shook slightly. According to the feeling of the ground, all the people present were high-level. It was not difficult to push out the tentacle. The power of a clap was nearly tons. Not to mention the mole, even an iron plate had to deform. Sure enough, when the tentacle was slightly raised, the Mole had turned into a mass of meat paste. The tentacle rolled up the rat body, retracted with a cry, and disappeared in the dark in the distance In the dark.
There was a constant scream of the mole nearby. It didn't stop until a moment later, and the light fungus on the giant mushroom changed its color. The red light gradually faded away, and then emitted other soft colors.
The hunter has left.
"Let's go," zero said.
"What was that just now?" Haiwei couldn't help asking. Of course, she knew that there was no answer to this question.
"Some kind of large predator, as long as it doesn't block our way, we don't pay attention to it." zero said, then identified the direction of the underwater sound, and set off with the team.
The sound of water is approaching, and the mushroom forest is far away.
Far away, on the contrary, through the misty phosgene emitted by the whole mushroom forest, you can see that in the giant mushroom forest, a figure as high as a hill is moving slowly. You can't see its appearance clearly, but from the outline, it reminds people of a snail. The obviously round body and the high head in front are indeed similar to the appearance of a snail.
The biggest snail that zero has ever seen is the overlord snail, but compared with the giant in the mushroom forest, the overlord snail is nothing. However, it may not be a snail. Who has ever seen a snail with tentacles, so in the end, zero can only attribute the giant in the mushroom forest to a giant alien.
After leaving the mushroom forest, you can obviously feel that the soil on the ground gradually becomes wet, and then gravel begins to appear. Finally, they come to a stone beach. Not far from the stone beach, a river roars. The water flows from behind them and flows forward along the terrain. It seems that this River should be an underground branch of the lake at the entrance, and then pass through the surface to form a river Such a river.
There are creatures in the river. Some strange fish with several luminous tentacles are the residents in the water. They are small and slender. They swim very fast in the water. If they swim along the water, it is estimated that they can reach 30 kilometers per hour. This is very fast. Although they can't swim for a long time, they can avoid the attack of some predators when necessary.
The predator in the water is an animal like a water snake. They drill out of the stone cracks on both sides of the river. These animals have snake like bodies, but their skin is transparent and the surface emits fluorescence. It has three pairs of feet, which have a toe structure like a frog, and there are webs between the toes. When the strange snake stretches its feet flat, it can use the web between its toes to float on the water, like a luminous branch.
It uses its specialty to attract some bearded fish. At the moment when the prey approaches, the strange snake will suddenly roll into a ball, hang the prey, and then drag it into the crevice to enjoy it.
When they were resting by the river, they just witnessed the whole hunting process. From the giant mushroom forest to the river, they have seen that the underground world has its own independent ecosystem. In this ecosystem, predators and prey are fighting all the time. As long as either party is lax, it may be a disaster.
Competition is everywhere.
This is the most comfortable portrayal of the new world. From prochus and agradis, to human and alien, and even in the independent space under the earth, there is competition between creatures everywhere.
Everything is just for survival!
After a 10 minute break, the team set off again. Walking along the river, the terrain changes from high to low, but the slope is gentle. If you don't distinguish it carefully, it's difficult to detect that it's going underground. Walking in the dark is not good. After losing the obvious reference, the perception of time gradually becomes blurred. The road ahead is always in the dark, and there seems to be no end in the column of light.
Endless darkness, swallowing everything.
Just when they thought the road would never end, zero suddenly stopped. In front of the terrain, the slope suddenly increased, and the river flowing down turned into a waterfall and turned into a roaring sound of water.
"Flare!"
It's dark in front. You can't see anything. Obviously, you can't save a flare for insurance. When the flare took off, the people held their breath. Where they are now, it is a cliff about 20 meters from the ground. Here, the river falls like a waterfall into a lake below.
The lake is not big, it is estimated that it is only about tens of meters. The water of the lake turns up waves all the time. Under the lake, there must be an underground waterway connected with other places, otherwise the water of the lake cannot remain normal. Behind the lake is a mountainous area with jagged rocks and some luminous moss. Where the light of the flare is not enough, it emits a faint halo in the dark.
At the back of the mountain, some strange contours can be seen by the light of the flare.
Like the ribs of a giant beast, things rise from the ground on both sides, showing an inward bending structure, which is recorded in the murals of the shadow family and the second forward node after the giant mushroom forest, the giant beast canyon. Through this canyon, you can reach the plain where the sauropod nest is located. After the sauropod plain, the Titan hall is not far away.
The light of the flare is gradually weakening. They are not idle and jump directly from the cliff to the lake below. When we swam out of the lake and landed, the underground world was shrouded in darkness. A moment later, the light of glowing moss appeared in the dark. They were like a glowing carpet, marking the direction of zero line.
With these luminous lichens, zero simply turned off the light source to save energy, and others followed suit. The crowd walked on the carpet of light, and the sharp blade hunters were scattered on both sides of the team as guards. The team advanced towards the giant beast Canyon without obstacles.
The number of glowing lichens is decreasing when approaching the giant beast canyon. It seems that the soil of the canyon is not suitable for this plant. The soil on the ground is also soft and hard. When you come to the entrance of the canyon, you can find that they are as hard as steel by picking up a stone at random. With such a molecular structure, it is no wonder that the luminous lichen cannot extend its territory into the canyon.
The whole Canyon is filled with the smell of emptiness and death.
"Be careful." zero whispered, turned on the light again and walked into the canyon first.
The canyon is very spacious, and the rocks on both sides bend like the bones of giants. From time to time, a very strong wind blows from the other end of the valley. The temperature of the strong wind is hot and contains some hard gravel. Zero sum gold had to go ahead and open the force field to resist both sides of the wind and gravel force field. But I don't know where the wind comes from under the earth.
What we can know is that it is these hot winds and metal like gravel that cause the special landform of giant beast canyon. It can be imagined that at the beginning, perhaps it was just an ordinary underground canyon. It doesn't look like this now, but I don't know when it began. With the burning wind and iron sand, they gradually eroded the landform of the canyon, forming the mountain wall like the ribs of a giant beast.
Fortunately, the foehn does not blow continuously. It occasionally comes once or twice, with a long interval. The longest time, almost 40 minutes. Zero, they walked in the canyon for more than two hours, but they only encountered three or two such foehn winds. But the distance of the canyon seems to be very long. At least they can't see the end. Go a little longer and let the team stop and rest.
Eat some food, replenish water and restore energy. Exploring underground without light consumes much more energy than the ground. The most consumption comes from vigilance against the unknown darkness. Therefore, not marching for a long time and necessary rest are the important guarantee for reaching the destination safely.
Haiwei is a restless girl, eating and sitting on a stone with her feet shaking from time to time. Suddenly her toes touched something. She looked down and gave a short scream.
It turned out that under the soles of the feet was a skull. It's just a little strange in shape. I don't know what kind of animal skeleton it is. But they soon found that on the ground of this canyon, under the gravel, like the skull of an animal or other bones of the body, they could be seen almost everywhere. This is almost a graveyard of animals, with countless bones.
Zero sink said: "be careful, everyone. We seem to have entered the territory of some kind of predator."
When he had finished, Leah stood up and said, "something is approaching us."
"Location!"
"Two o'clock, no... it moves very fast. It's very close..."
At the moment of Leia's exclamation, the air breaking sound sounded overhead, and the fishy smell was pressed from top to bottom. The zero lift lamp looked up. Under the light, a dark shadow rushed down from the side of the mountain wall where they rested, flying with debris. Gold reacted very quickly. He immediately pressed his hand on the mountain wall. Suddenly, a rock surface in the middle of the mountain wall burst into pieces and blew it away, leaving a little blood stain.
The shadow fell to the ground and rushed towards them. His feet were flying, and he stepped on the gravel of the canyon and flew up. Zero is the first to meet, but this thing is very flexible. The sudden brake and turning kill left a surging wave in the air, which had bypassed zero and crashed into the rear team.
It rushed straight at Leah, killing her like an intelligent species. It seems that Leah sensed it in advance, so she was listed on the must kill list. The speed is amazing, zero dull hum, just about to flash past by space jump. A scream suddenly sounded in the team, and a cold light flashed like autumn water, straight into the dark shadow.
It's Moni!
She combined the death assault into the shape of a gun blade and followed the gun tip to accurately pierce the dark shadow. But the strong impact still made her slide back on the ground until the powder back hit the mountain wall. The limbs of the thing were still twitching from time to time, and the nerve endings were still working. Moni put down the gun blade, stepped on it, pulled out the death assault, and immediately filled the ground with blood.
This is a rat headed man with dark brown short hair. The eyes degenerate, but the nose is particularly large. From the top of the head to the tail, there is a row of dark red short thorns on the whole back. The body looks a little thin. You can obviously see the human like physical characteristics, especially the shape of the ribs. However, both hands and feet have sharp claws like military knives, and a tail is thin and long, but there are bone needles at the tail.
Looking at the specialty of this giant beast Canyon, zero Pro automatic hand dismembers it with the dagger in hand in order to understand the body structure of this thing. When the blade comes, the skin and flesh stand apart. Under the knife of zero, the rat head man soon became pieces of parts. It is not difficult to see from its body structure that this thing has evolved to a fairly high degree. Its brain is very developed, and its sulcus is deep and dense, which is the characteristic of intelligent life.
The bones are as light as the previously found fish human bones, which greatly reduces the weight of rats and humans. But the most developed is its muscles, especially the thigh muscles of the hind legs. There are many fibers and the muscle bundles are delicate and compact. This allows the mouse man to make the difficult action of rapid steering as just now when needed. Whether it's avoiding danger or hunting prey, it's an extremely rare skill.
The last is its four legged knife like claw. Zero found a muscle inclusion on its claw. Pressing hard can eject the claw to hurt the enemy. The effective killing distance is about 10 meters. The tail needle is also a very powerful weapon. There is a poison bag at the end of the needle. It seems that after entering the hunting object, it can create a hydraulic pressure to squeeze the poison bag through the flow of blood vessels, so as to inject some toxins.
Zero carefully punctures the poison bag and flows out a green and fluorescent solution from it. As soon as I came across the gravel in the canyon, it burned so loud that it was dark after a while. This is a very powerful biological toxin, but the poison capsule is very small, so it can squeeze out a little. But this toxin is enough to put down many creatures.
In general, this is a higher level predator than sauropod. And they have evolved wisdom, making them more dangerous. Giant beast Canyon may be the territory of this rat man. If you continue to go deep, it is inevitable to encounter. He explained the characteristics and structure of rat man to the people, and then the team went on the road. They walked close to the side of the mountain wall to avoid sudden attack to the greatest extent. But zero knows very well that the movement of his team can't hide from the residents in the canyon.
For he had found something watching their team on the other side of the mountain wall, in the darkness beyond the reach of the light. Although the eyes of rats and humans have degenerated, underground creatures naturally have a sensing system. Or vibration, or smell, those perceptual systems that are not affected by sight must have evolved to a higher level.
The trip to the canyon was never calm, and zero had expected this. But when Leia projected the picture scanned by a pair of spirits into the minds of zero people, they were still deeply shocked. On both sides of the canyon, dense light spots appeared within 300 square meters. Each light spot represents a creature, and there are thousands of such creatures.
If all of them are rat people who act like the wind, even if they are zero, the team will feel quite a headache.
As for the short thorn on the back, its purpose is unknown.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

After being eaten by giant rats, the dried mushrooms began to produce a thin fibrous membrane to seal the "wound".Look at the dead moles. Their bodies are rotting. The decay rate is very fast, and the changes that can be completed in a few days can be completed in just a few tens of seconds. However, on the rotten body, the luminescent bacteria gradually disappeared. Instead, there are some small bacterial buds, which further decompose the mole's body and turn these animals into fertilizer for the land."Symbiotic system." Moni suddenly said: "During my two years in the dark earth, I have also seen some plants use this method to prolong the lives of themselves and their offspring. They will attract nearby animals with aroma or color, and then sprinkle seeds on these animals. Some animals will die for no reason, and their bodies become fertilizer for plants. But others can survive, and they can get To the gift of plants. ""The surviving animals leave soon and take the plant seeds to other places to reproduce their offspring. Amanda calls this symbiotic system for plants," mone said finally."We don't want to eat these giant mushrooms. I hope they don't treat us as animals." Jin looked at the glowing mushrooms on the giant mushroom cap on his head with great concern for fear that they would fall down.Everyone laughed at it. Moni said, "don't worry. Plants can tell whether you are their eater by smell. If not, they won't waste seeds on you.""Plants can also distinguish smell. The world is crazy." Jin is a little crazy.Zero shrugged and said, "has the world ever been normal?"Suddenly, some giant mushrooms hundreds of steps away changed the color of the luminescent bacteria on their caps. No matter what color they used to be, they gradually dimmed and then lit up a bright red color. No matter how they looked, it was like a plant alarm. When they found the change of the color of the luminescent bacteria, some moles raised their heads warily, then "squeaked" and turned around and ran away.Something's coming!The thought began, and a cry like a blue whale sounded from the dark. With the sound of breaking the air, it was like something passing through the space at high speed. Unfortunately, the things in the dark were too far away to see each other.A mole seemed frightened. He was dizzy and ran in the direction of zero. Zero looked at him and was ready to kill the fat mouse, otherwise it would attract unknown creatures. But before he could make a move, an octopus like tentacle suddenly jumped out of the darkness. It passed through many giant mushrooms, smart as a snake, and beat the mole accurately.The ground shook slightly. According to the feeling of the ground, all the people present were high-level. It was not difficult to push out the tentacle. The power of a clap was nearly tons. Not to mention the mole, even an iron plate had to deform. Sure enough, when the tentacle was slightly raised, the Mole had turned into a mass of meat paste. The tentacle rolled up the rat body, retracted with a cry, and disappeared in the dark in the distance In the dark.There was a constant scream of the mole nearby. It didn't stop until a moment later, and the light fungus on the giant mushroom changed its color. The red light gradually faded away, and then emitted other soft colors.The hunter has left."Let's go," zero said."What was that just now?" Haiwei couldn't help asking. Of course, she knew that there was no answer to this question."Some kind of large predator, as long as it doesn't block our way, we don't pay attention to it." zero said, then identified the direction of the underwater sound, and set off with the team.The sound of water is approaching, and the mushroom forest is far away.Far away, on the contrary, through the misty phosgene emitted by the whole mushroom forest, you can see that in the giant mushroom forest, a figure as high as a hill is moving slowly. You can't see its appearance clearly, but from the outline, it reminds people of a snail. The obviously round body and the high head in front are indeed similar to the appearance of a snail.The biggest snail that zero has ever seen is the overlord snail, but compared with the giant in the mushroom forest, the overlord snail is nothing. However, it may not be a snail. Who has ever seen a snail with tentacles, so in the end, zero can only attribute the giant in the mushroom forest to a giant alien.After leaving the mushroom forest, you can obviously feel that the soil on the ground gradually becomes wet, and then gravel begins to appear. Finally, they come to a stone beach. Not far from the stone beach, a river roars. The water flows from behind them and flows forward along the terrain. It seems that this River should be an underground branch of the lake at the entrance, and then pass through the surface to form a river Such a river.There are creatures in the river. Some strange fish with several luminous tentacles are the residents in the water. They are small and slender. They swim very fast in the water. If they swim along the water, it is estimated that they can reach 30 kilometers per hour. This is very fast. Although they can't swim for a long time, they can avoid the attack of some predators when necessary.The predator in the water is an animal like a water snake. They drill out of the stone cracks on both sides of the river. These animals have snake like bodies, but their skin is transparent and the surface emits fluorescence. It has three pairs of feet, which have a toe structure like a frog, and there are webs between the toes. When the strange snake stretches its feet flat, it can use the web between its toes to float on the water, like a luminous branch.It uses its specialty to attract some bearded fish. At the moment when the prey approaches, the strange snake will suddenly roll into a ball, hang the prey, and then drag it into the crevice to enjoy it.When they were resting by the river, they just witnessed the whole hunting process. From the giant mushroom forest to the river, they have seen that the underground world has its own independent ecosystem. In this ecosystem, predators and prey are fighting all the time. As long as either party is lax, it may be a disaster.Competition is everywhere.This is the most comfortable portrayal of the new world. From prochus and agradis, to human and alien, and even in the independent space under the earth, there is competition between creatures everywhere.Everything is just for survival!After a 10 minute break, the team set off again. Walking along the river, the terrain changes from high to low, but the slope is gentle. If you don't distinguish it carefully, it's difficult to detect that it's going underground. Walking in the dark is not good. After losing the obvious reference, the perception of time gradually becomes blurred. The road ahead is always in the dark, and there seems to be no end in the column of light.Endless darkness, swallowing everything.Just when they thought the road would never end, zero suddenly stopped. In front of the terrain, the slope suddenly increased, and the river flowing down turned into a waterfall and turned into a roaring sound of water."Flare!"It's dark in front. You can't see anything. Obviously, you can't save a flare for insurance. When the flare took off, the people held their breath. Where they are now, it is a cliff about 20 meters from the ground. Here, the river falls like a waterfall into a lake below.The lake is not big, it is estimated that it is only about tens of meters. The water of the lake turns up waves all the time. Under the lake, there must be an underground waterway connected with other places, otherwise the water of the lake cannot remain normal. Behind the lake is a mountainous area with jagged rocks and some luminous moss. Where the light of the flare is not enough, it emits a faint halo in the dark.At the back of the mountain, some strange contours can be seen by the light of the flare.Like the ribs of a giant beast, things rise from the ground on both sides, showing an inward bending structure, which is recorded in the murals of the shadow family and the second forward node after the giant mushroom forest, the giant beast canyon. Through this canyon, you can reach the plain where the sauropod nest is located. After the sauropod plain, the Titan hall is not far away.The light of the flare is gradually weakening. They are not idle and jump directly from the cliff to the lake below. When we swam out of the lake and landed, the underground world was shrouded in darkness. A moment later, the light of glowing moss appeared in the dark. They were like a glowing carpet, marking the direction of zero line.With these luminous lichens, zero simply turned off the light source to save energy, and others followed suit. The crowd walked on the carpet of light, and the sharp blade hunters were scattered on both sides of the team as guards. The team advanced towards the giant beast Canyon without obstacles.The number of glowing lichens is decreasing when approaching the giant beast canyon. It seems that the soil of the canyon is not suitable for this plant. The soil on the ground is also soft and hard. When you come to the entrance of the canyon, you can find that they are as hard as steel by picking up a stone at random. With such a molecular structure, it is no wonder that the luminous lichen cannot extend its territory into the canyon.The whole Canyon is filled with the smell of emptiness and death."Be careful." zero whispered, turned on the light again and walked into the canyon first.The canyon is very spacious, and the rocks on both sides bend like the bones of giants. From time to time, a very strong wind blows from the other end of the valley. The temperature of the strong wind is hot and contains some hard gravel. Zero sum gold had to go ahead and open the force field to resist both sides of the wind and gravel force field. But I don't know where the wind comes from under the earth.What we can know is that it is these hot winds and metal like gravel that cause the special landform of giant beast canyon. It can be imagined that at the beginning, perhaps it was just an ordinary underground canyon. It doesn't look like this now, but I don't know when it began. With the burning wind and iron sand, they gradually eroded the landform of the canyon, forming the mountain wall like the ribs of a giant beast.Fortunately, the foehn does not blow continuously. It occasionally comes once or twice, with a long interval. The longest time, almost 40 minutes. Zero, they walked in the canyon for more than two hours, but they only encountered three or two such foehn winds. But the distance of the canyon seems to be very long. At least they can't see the end. Go a little longer and let the team stop and rest.Eat some food, replenish water and restore energy. Exploring underground without light consumes much more energy than the ground. The most consumption comes from vigilance against the unknown darkness. Therefore, not marching for a long time and necessary rest are the important guarantee for reaching the destination safely.Haiwei is a restless girl, eating and sitting on a stone with her feet shaking from time to time. Suddenly her toes touched something. She looked down and gave a short scream.It turned out that under the soles of the feet was a skull. It's just a little strange in shape. I don't know what kind of animal skeleton it is. But they soon found that on the ground of this canyon, under the gravel, like the skull of an animal or other bones of the body, they could be seen almost everywhere. This is almost a graveyard of animals, with countless bones.Zero sink said: "be careful, everyone. We seem to have entered the territory of some kind of predator."When he had finished, Leah stood up and said, "something is approaching us.""Location!""Two o'clock, no... it moves very fast. It's very close..."At the moment of Leia's exclamation, the air breaking sound sounded overhead, and the fishy smell was pressed from top to bottom. The zero lift lamp looked up. Under the light, a dark shadow rushed down from the side of the mountain wall where they rested, flying with debris. Gold reacted very quickly. He immediately pressed his hand on the mountain wall. Suddenly, a rock surface in the middle of the mountain wall burst into pieces and blew it away, leaving a little blood stain.The shadow fell to the ground and rushed towards them. His feet were flying, and he stepped on the gravel of the canyon and flew up. Zero is the first to meet, but this thing is very flexible. The sudden brake and turning kill left a surging wave in the air, which had bypassed zero and crashed into the rear team.It rushed straight at Leah, killing her like an intelligent species. It seems that Leah sensed it in advance, so she was listed on the must kill list. The speed is amazing, zero dull hum, just about to flash past by space jump. A scream suddenly sounded in the team, and a cold light flashed like autumn water, straight into the dark shadow.It's Moni!She combined the death assault into the shape of a gun blade and followed the gun tip to accurately pierce the dark shadow. But the strong impact still made her slide back on the ground until the powder back hit the mountain wall. The limbs of the thing were still twitching from time to time, and the nerve endings were still working. Moni put down the gun blade, stepped on it, pulled out the death assault, and immediately filled the ground with blood.This is a rat headed man with dark brown short hair. The eyes degenerate, but the nose is particularly large. From the top of the head to the tail, there is a row of dark red short thorns on the whole back. The body looks a little thin. You can obviously see the human like physical characteristics, especially the shape of the ribs. However, both hands and feet have sharp claws like military knives, and a tail is thin and long, but there are bone needles at the tail.Looking at the specialty of this giant beast Canyon, zero Pro automatic hand dismembers it with the dagger in hand in order to understand the body structure of this thing. When the blade comes, the skin and flesh stand apart. Under the knife of zero, the rat head man soon became pieces of parts. It is not difficult to see from its body structure that this thing has evolved to a fairly high degree. Its brain is very developed, and its sulcus is deep and dense, which is the characteristic of intelligent life.The bones are as light as the previously found fish human bones, which greatly reduces the weight of rats and humans. But the most developed is its muscles, especially the thigh muscles of the hind legs. There are many fibers and the muscle bundles are delicate and compact. This allows the mouse man to make the difficult action of rapid steering as just now when needed. Whether it's avoiding danger or hunting prey, it's an extremely rare skill.The last is its four legged knife like claw. Zero found a muscle inclusion on its claw. Pressing hard can eject the claw to hurt the enemy. The effective killing distance is about 10 meters. The tail needle is also a very powerful weapon. There is a poison bag at the end of the needle. It seems that after entering the hunting object, it can create a hydraulic pressure to squeeze the poison bag through the flow of blood vessels, so as to inject some toxins.Zero carefully punctures the poison bag and flows out a green and fluorescent solution from it. As soon as I came across the gravel in the canyon, it burned so loud that it was dark after a while. This is a very powerful biological toxin, but the poison capsule is very small, so it can squeeze out a little. But this toxin is enough to put down many creatures.In general, this is a higher level predator than sauropod. And they have evolved wisdom, making them more dangerous. Giant beast Canyon may be the territory of this rat man. If you continue to go deep, it is inevitable to encounter. He explained the characteristics and structure of rat man to the people, and then the team went on the road. They walked close to the side of the mountain wall to avoid sudden attack to the greatest extent. But zero knows very well that the movement of his team can't hide from the residents in the canyon.For he had found something watching their team on the other side of the mountain wall, in the darkness beyond the reach of the light. Although the eyes of rats and humans have degenerated, underground creatures naturally have a sensing system. Or vibration, or smell, those perceptual systems that are not affected by sight must have evolved to a higher level.The trip to the canyon was never calm, and zero had expected this. But when Leia projected the picture scanned by a pair of spirits into the minds of zero people, they were still deeply shocked. On both sides of the canyon, dense light spots appeared within 300 square meters. Each light spot represents a creature, and there are thousands of such creatures.If all of them are rat people who act like the wind, even if they are zero, the team will feel quite a headache.As for the short thorn on the back, its purpose is unknown.
