The End of the Paleozoic Era Chapter 2162 The Closest Organism

They call themselves 'the closest creatures to Ersh'.

They are a very ancient mollusk. According to the classification method of the Ershi people, they are members of the "Cephalopoda".

Compared to the common cephalopods, or octopuses, on Ersh...Lin found that they were more similar to the ancient squids on the pompom.

The octopuses on Ershi, some Ershi people believe that they have high intelligence... and can develop into intelligent creatures.

What limits their development is not intelligence but lifespan, which is usually only a few years.

If the Ershi people could only live that short a lifespan, they wouldn't be able to develop anything.

However, the creature that Lin encountered in the underwater cave...it seemed to be an octopus with a long enough lifespan.

In short, this creature just told Lin that their population has been living in this underwater cave.

They have special names for themselves, but because they don't usually communicate with sounds, but rather with... color changes, they usually describe their own race in a multi-color mixture.

If translated into the language of the Ershi people, it would be called "Bianhuan Octopus" for now.

The 'Changeling Octopus' itself can completely disguise itself as the Ershi people. They are quite good at...transformation and color change.

Just like the one that was talking to Lin...it pretended to be Bilu.

At the same time, it also told Lin a lot of things.

This cave is not just what Lin sees now, it also has a very large and complex cave system, and the key point is that this is a 'neural abandonment point'.

That is, the nervous system of the star bus. During its continuous growth process, it will shed some older outer layers and small pieces. These shed parts often appear in these underwater caves.

Just like what Lin had seen before.

Since this group of creatures have lived here for a long time, they have been in contact with these detached nerve parts for a long time.

It is said that in the 'primitive era', the ancestors of the octopus mainly collected these small pieces of nerve structures to build nests.

Nothing special happened at first, but after a long time, they suddenly began to understand the information in the ganglia.

Even a very small ganglion could contain huge and complex information. From that time on, the intelligence or knowledge of the octopus began to increase dramatically.

They also began to develop rapidly, forming tribes, groups, societies... and countries.

At first they were relatively 'ignorant', and like many individual creatures, they fought each other for various things.

The biggest reason for war is usually to seize the opponent's bus ganglion.

They regard small pieces of neural structure as 'sacred', and the octopus that obtains the most ganglia is considered the individual in the group.

That is... the king.

During their heyday, they began to try to leave the underwater cave and develop outside.

Outside… it’s also the depths of the ocean.

Because it was difficult to adapt to the deep sea environment, they quickly gave up the idea and continued to live in the caves.

But some octopuses are said to have managed to survive in the deep ocean, and then moved to shallower waters... and even onto land.

However, most of the rest still live in caves fighting for power.

After all, this cave system is very large. According to its introduction, it is about the same size as Antarctica.

It may be a special area specially created by Ersh.

In war after war, the population of the Changing Octopus experienced a cycle of extinction and rebirth, and then extinction and rebirth again.

Until... a certain 'mass extinction' event, which killed 99% of the octopuses.

But they think this is a good thing.

Because after that incident, the warlike individuals in the octopus population seemed to have completely disappeared, and only some quiet individuals remained. The war between them also ended completely after that incident.

The remaining group of octopuses could be called a 'group of scholars'.

They became a group of creatures that only liked to live a quiet life, and their main activity was studying the neural structure of Ersh.

By studying these nerves, they can know what's happening in the world even though they stay in their caves.

They can even understand things that are happening in the void, even further away.

Especially the one Lin is meeting now...it knows a lot of things.

Including Lin's matter.

It told Lin that Ersh had actually been watching Lin all the time, mainly through Bilu.

When Bilu first approached Lin's Veronica, it was not entirely voluntary, although it was voluntary to a large extent.

But there was also Ersh who gave a "secret" push, which made Bilu want to contact Veronica.

Then, Bilu stayed with Lin all the time, and Ersh also observed Lin through this point.
