4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

"Hey..."

The creatures living in the cold gathered together in front of Lynn's eyes.

Here is a location similar to the 'centre hall', where there is a table filled with fungal food. A total of five fluffy creatures are gathering in this place, and they discuss something with each other.

Although Lin still can't understand what they say.

But according to their emotional judgment, these creatures seem to be in a state of tension.

"Hey!" "Nano Nino!"

These creatures communicate with this voice. They have a lot of vocabulary. Through them, they express their emotions. Lin is slowly understanding all of their languages.

These creatures are probably talking about something about the loss.

They are not many in number, and they can be said to be very few. Before, Lin thought that most of them went out to ** ** ** ** ** novels, but it seems that this is not the case.

Because these creatures are in the process of talking, they can clearly feel the sadness of losing their companions.

Before Lin’s disc was here, I found that there were a lot of empty rooms, and the living creatures in those empty rooms might have died.

what is the root cause?

It should not be because of the lack of food, because there is still a lot of food here, although there is only a single species...

Before seeing them in the meeting, Lynn found the place where these fungi live.

These fungi are much like a fungus on the pompon, they can live at temperatures that are almost frozen, and their hyphae can extend into the walls of the rock, absorbing and looking for nutrients inside.

Lin found that the stone walls contained a nutrient that can be absorbed by multicellular organisms. So this fungus can grow very strong here. Also provide rich food for these long-haired creatures...

Not a lack of food. There may be other reasons for biological death here, too cold? Or what's there, but I still haven't figured out why they are running outside because there is enough food here, they don't have to run out, but they can live here all the time...

Probably because of the lack of energy, the most important thing about this underground cavern is actually the temperature. On the surface of the tumbling, the temperature is almost the same as the void. Any multi-cellular creature is hard to live, and although it is deep underground, the temperature is still very low, so here it is mainly through the caves, a mushroom-like thing to radiate warmth.

'Mushroom' is actually a mechanical device. Mushrooms in all parts of the cave lead to a heating device at the bottom of the cave. Lin has not studied it in detail, but it is obvious that the creatures here need to constantly add energy to the device to make it Keep running...

If there is no energy, everything here will be frozen. They can't live in this place either...

But where are these creatures looking for energy? And what is the connection with the fragments of the 'Snow Mushrooms' they were originally collecting?

As they watched them discussing there, Lynn slowly began to understand them.

but. The easiest way to learn about their language is to look at their memories.

Lin has almost understood their body structure, but the strange thing is that if they are a creature together with the virtual people, they should also breathe oxygen.

But they are not breathing oxygen, but a gas here.

This kind of gas is harmless to the virtual people, but it can't be used as oxygen, but the long hair creature here can.

They depend on this gas for a living.

This kind of creature is quite a mystery...

And their attitude towards the disc seems to be quite strange.

"Wow, oh?" When Lin thought about it, a creature came over.

Now, the disc is in a state of being captured. Before the disc inspected a room, there was a trap, and the cage that suddenly appeared was closed...

Lin wants to see what happens when the creatures here catch the disc, so they don't escape, and they come to the center's meeting venue with their cages, and then they meet in front of the disc to discuss.

They don't seem to care much about the disc, but Lynn also thinks that since they will make a trap, it means that there will be occasional intruders here.

There may be other kinds of biological life here.

Now, after they have finished the meeting, they seem to be paying attention to the disc.

Lin saw a long-haired creature coming over. They were standing and moving, but when they put on their armor, they were moving around, feeling the same as the virtual people...

The creature walked to the disc cage and took out a piece and handed it to the disc.

This is the 'bacteria' condensed by the fungi of their food, and they eat this part.

Now, they seem to be going to give this thing to the disc to eat?

In fact, the appearance of the disc looks more like a metal-made machine. They actually think of the disc as a living thing? It feels wonderful.

The disc did not move, and the long-haired creature found the disc ignore it after trying it, and then it reached back.

And its next action made Lin feel strange, it opened the cage directly.

They seem to think that the disc is not threatening, so it opens? Thinking, the disc flew out of the cage.

And these creatures looked at the disc with a curious look.

It seems that they do not think that discs are harmful creatures. If so, then communicate with them in a normal way...

In this way, Lin then let the disc ‘live’ in this place.

After that, these creatures gave the disc a random activity here, although it was not much different from before.

Lin is here to continue to study these creatures, observe their lives, etc...

These long-haired creatures are very ordinary. They use some entertainment tools to play there besides eating. They play things like toys made by virtual people.

But nowadays, the virtual people don't play toys very much. They like to use the video device to see various things from the beginning of the baby...

These creatures do not have imaging devices, although they have some mechanical items. But they don't seem to be making new ones themselves. Only use the original one.

These creatures are a kind of individual creature. In the process of getting along with them, Lin also slowly learned their language.

I feel that their language is very understandable, simpler than the virtual ones. Soon, Lin began to communicate with them.

"You... can you talk?"

These long-haired creatures were quite surprised when the discs first communicated with them, but they quickly adapted and communicated with the disc...

"You come from above? Does the above mean outside? Why come from outside? What are you doing here?"

but. These creatures, which may have something to do with the imaginary people, seem to be less intelligent than the imaginary people. Their thinking is very similar to that of a cub.

"We haven't seen a creature like you yet." "Too interesting!" "Don't you eat?" "It's delicious to eat this one."

There are a circle of long-haired creatures around the disc, and they have a total of fifteen, which is the maximum number of Lin sees here.

But there is no ‘first leader’ among them, and they feel like they are living like a baby.

“Have you been living here?” The disc did not answer, but raised questions about them.

"Yeah, we have been living here." A long-haired creature replied: "We collect the food that grows on the wall, and you eat a little, it's delicious."

"Yeah. Are you living outside? It must be terrible outside." Another long-haired creature said: "We can only have warmth here, you live here. Our companions are getting less and less. ""

"Warm..." asked the disc: "Which machine that made warmth was made by you?"

"Made? We don't make it, it's been left before." The long-haired creature replied and waved his arm as if he was arranging something: "I stayed a long time ago, we know, feed it, it It will keep us warm..."

Another long-haired creature continued: "But... the food it eats is hard to find recently. If it doesn't eat, it won't give us warmth. We only have to work hard to find it, but... many companions are Was killed."

Having said that, there is a sad mood among them...

Sure enough, the situation here is exactly the same as Lin’s thought.

But why was it killed?

"We don't know, but we heard their screams, and there is something that attacks us." Long hair creatures answered this.

“We usually look for food in the 'deprecated land', but since that kind of thing, we have not passed.”

“Abandoned land?” The disc questioned: “Where is that?”

"That is under our home. It is said that there were many companions in the past." A long-haired creature said: "We can also find food there, but now it is not working."

The disc hesitated, then continued to ask: "So you know..."

.........

Then, Lynn asked a lot about them.

However, these creatures live in this place for their life history, all of which are completely unknown, they only know to constantly add energy to the heater, and then collect the fungus on the wall.

I feel that their living conditions are getting closer and closer to the average wild creature.

For this reason, it is estimated that it is related to the fungi they eat.

After carefully examining their brains, Lin found that the fungi they eat had some effect on the nerves, making their intelligence more like a baby...

Therefore, a deeper investigation is needed to understand them...

So the discs flew to the place they described... the place that was called the 'discarded land'. To be continued...
