4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

Chapter 985 Nerve Signals

The brilliant light dissipated, and the short battle ended quickly.

The alien army also dispersed, leaving only a huge... corpse still in the air.

The body, which was hundreds of meters long, was covered with cracks, and all the tentacles that had covered its body had disappeared. This creature, which originally looked like an empty jellyfish, was now floating quietly like an exploding stone... …

The alien species did not completely destroy it, but only wiped out its tentacles and left many... fatal scars on its body.

Then they all left.

Some of Lin's mechanical spiders also left with the alien species, but there were still ten mechanical spiders left here because Lin wanted to examine the huge corpse.

Lin felt that this creature... was special.

The mechanical spider floated above the corpse, got through the cracks on the surface, and moved inside the creature's corpse.

Inside, you can see many large and soft structures hanging around like... gourds, but none of these structures are alive, they are all... dead.

The internal organs of this creature cannot come into contact with the void environment. It is originally filled with gases and other substances. When cracks appear in the body, these substances will leak out, causing the overall death of the creature.

But there were still some... signals coming out of it, so Lin decided to come in and explore. The mechanical spiders quickly flew in the direction of the signal inside its body.

After crawling through a lot of soft gourd-shaped objects, Lin came to a place... that looked like the center.

Here, there is a huge organ that is still...squirming.

This organ looks like something called a durian. It is more than thirty meters long in total and is covered with many small thorns. However, these thorns are soft. Just like other organs here, the whole body is very soft.

But they are not cellular structures, and within this durian-like organ, some signals can be felt.

It's even more obvious here. So Lin let the mechanical spider float above the organ, slowly inserted spikes from the outside and began to detect the environment inside.

So that's it...this organ is still alive, but it's dying.

However, the thing inside it remained intact...the thing that sent the signal.

The mechanical spider that got in has found it.

It is attached to this organ like a tree root. It is something Lin is familiar with... the nervous system of the Stellar Bus.

The signal just received was sent by the nervous system. This is not the entire nervous system, but only a small part.

But this small part seems to contain a lot of information. You can use the block that detects the nerves of the bus... and you can learn a lot if you touch it.

But you can't know everything at once, you can only get it slowly... because there are some... problems in this nervous system.

In short, let's first take a look at the information it slowly transmitted. The initial message was... news about this hollow jellyfish-like creature.

This creature...can be called a 'creator jellyfish'. It originally belonged to a certain group of...civilized creatures.

Its function is to collect and shape various substances.

They can use the tentacles on their bodies to swallow various objects they come into contact with, and then transform the swallowed substances in their bodies. Originally, the 'creator jellyfish' helped the group of civilized creatures collect resources. During the collection process, they would remove useless impurities from the resources. . And you can also participate in the production of some things.

Of course, this group of civilized creatures were destroyed by the water balloon as they approached it.

Then, the artificial jellyfish survived, and they were dragged to this area by the alien species along with the remains of civilized creatures.

Later, they lived inside the gravitational ball...

Because they can produce explosives and some weapons, coupled with their size, and there are quite a lot of... symbiotic species in their bodies, they can live quite well inside the gravity ball.

The life of the jellyfish has always been very ordinary, just wandering around and collecting food. The various creatures here have not actively attacked them, but will fight back when attacked.

Until recently, they encountered something.

This kind of thing is the... nervous system of the Stellar Bus.

When the alien species came here. In addition to the gravitational organs and transmission organs, the organs that come with them also have a small amount of... nervous systems. These nervous systems have been in a state of sleep and are placed inside the gravitational sphere.

Originally, the star bus seemed to be 'set', and its nervous system would only wake up when the gravitational ball was completely created. And gain control of the entire gravity ball so that it can be fully resurrected.

But due to various situations that have occurred recently, this nervous system woke up early... But this does not seem to be completely awakened, because this nervous system does not communicate with Lin, it only seems to do some fixed things.

The nervous system is not a whole, but is divided into many parts. They are distributed in many places within the gravitational sphere. Each one is only about ten meters long and looks like the root system of a plant.

The first thing these awakened nervous systems do after waking up is... to attract nearby creatures, such as jellyfish.

It swallows the nervous system as food, and then the nervous system of the Stellar Bus slowly moves into the jellyfish like a parasite.

In the process of moving, the nerves began to understand what type of species the jellyfish was and learned about various conditions of the jellyfish.

After knowing this, it takes over the nervous system of the jellyfish itself, and then it begins to control the behavior of the jellyfish.

The original control of jellyfish was to find food. It seems that these nervous systems cannot replenish their own energy, so they need creatures like this that can move quickly and obtain large amounts of resources.

Lin found it a bit strange that the nervous system seemed to have no way to control other organs, so it could only rely on these nearby creatures to move.

Then, the nervous system begins to make the next step, which is to control the jellyfish to find other organs around it, such as gravity organs and transmission organs.

However, after finding it, it did not control the organ, but let the jellyfish... destroy it.

It turns out that that's why when Lin saw the jellyfish before, it was there to create explosive bombs and blow up the remaining organs.

But why do this?

There seems to be no explanation here. This nervous system only lets Lin know these processes. Moreover, it also explains that other nervous systems also control many artificial jellyfish.

And they are doing the same thing here, which is destroying other organs.

Although she understood a lot of things, she still had more questions... In short, Lin felt that she should find the location of other nerves.

Through the nerve discovered now, Lin can know the location of other nerves, but they are all relatively far away, and it may be... not easy to get to those places.

Unless you are following the alien army, that should be possible, but the alien...Lin also has many questions.

When she was close to the jellyfish, Lin discovered the signal sent by the star bus nerve inside, so the alien species should have received it, but why did the alien species seem to have no reaction and was still attacking the jellyfish? And after beating them, they all walked away without any thought of checking.

In addition to killing the creatures that behave strangely here, their mission is also to heal the organs here.

However, if you look carefully at the content of the mission, you can find that the alien treatment mission is limited to treating the transmission organs and gravity organs, and there is no mention of the nervous system at all.

Lin initially thought that there was no information about the nervous system in the information given to them by the Light Chaser, but only information about other organs, so the nervous system was not mentioned.

But now Lin thinks there may be some other problems inside.

Now the alien army is in a place where there are many large rocks floating. There are many tower-like things on these rocks. These towers will emit a large number of luminous objects for attack.

The alien army is fighting with them, and the shining light keeps lighting up, illuminating the dark space here.

Although the battle seemed fierce, Lin could still ask them some... questions.

Thinking about it, Lin asked the mechanical spider following the alien army to ask them some questions, asking them about the nervous system and what they would do if they discovered the nervous system.

"What is that?" "Don't interfere with our mission." "We kill everything here, and all mutated things will be purified." "You will also be purified, if you continue to interfere."

Lin got this reply.

It seemed that the alien species didn't care at all about the nervous system of the Stellar Bus, and they didn't even know what it looked like.

In this case, Lin felt that there was indeed a problem between them, but it was not clear what the problem was.

In short, Lin thought that we had to find other nerves, because Lin tested it again and believed that these nerves can be combined. When they are combined, they can be regarded as a complete nervous system.

When separated, each can only do some simple things.

The main thing is that Lin now knows how to find other nerves, just by using some special disguise methods.

Like sending a signal.

The nerves of the Stellar Bus will send a variety of signals, and Lin can also let the... core with dream energy inside the mechanical spider imitate and send similar signals. With one signal, she can prevent other creatures here from attacking her. (To be continued.)
