Chapter 2490 Approaching Object

"They already know... they are coming!"

On top of a high mountain, a signal tower made of phoenixes is sending signals to the depths of the void.

The snow lights gathered around the group of phoenixes, looking at the creatures they believed could save them with anticipation and doubt...

They really want to know what the Phoenix wants to do, and the current mainstream idea is that they believe the Phoenix wants to illuminate the world... and bring them endless light.

Why is there such a legend about Xue Guang? That is another complicated and long story.

But they don't know that the phoenix just wants to call its own kind to move the mountain away.

The Phoenixes are still sending signals continuously. They believe that their signals have been conveyed to their own kind...but Lin thinks not.

Because their kind in the distance didn't react at all, but...

Some of the creatures here responded.

Not long ago, Lin created a lot of miniature soldiers and spread them across this "snowfield" to observe everywhere.

These scattered miniature soldiers could see that the entire snowfield had responded to the Phoenix's signal... and many places were lit up with flaming lights.

These are... those torches.

After the extinction event, the various light-chasing creatures disappeared, and the torches they wore went dormant and were left behind.

They all fell to the ground as if dead and there was no movement, so Xue Guang did not try to use these dormant torches.

But now they all seem to be...awake.

These torches burned one after another...Lin's miniature soldiers floating in the air quickly landed around the lit torches and began to detect them.

The torches themselves would soon die if they did not parasitize any living creatures, and the lit torches were now rapidly becoming weaker and weaker.

And the reason they lit up... although it looked like it was because of the Phoenix's signal, Lin found out that it was not the case after investigation.

They all woke up because they received another signal that stimulated their nervous system... and the source of this signal was...

"What is that!"

High in the mountains, the phoenixes suddenly became excited.

Because the source of the signal that awakened all the torches... is approaching this mountain.

Whether it was the Phoenix or the surrounding snow light, Lin all noticed that it was a... fairly large object.

Its diameter is more than two hundred meters, and its shape is like a ball of lava.

In general, it is a liquid object emitting flaming light.

"This is... the regeneration pool. Why did it float out?"

Xue Guang was the most surprised at this lava-like object.

Because this ball of lava itself...can be said to be the source of the birth of the torch.

So Xue Guang also called it the 'regeneration pool'.

The torches mainly reproduce through the 'regeneration pool'. During the 'season' of reproduction, the torches will sprinkle a lot of fine particles.

Usually light-chasing organisms collect these particles and bring them to the vicinity of a 'regeneration pool'.

The Regeneration Pool normally looks like a lava lake, and light-chasing creatures will throw particles produced by torches into it.

After a period of time, the regeneration pool will erupt like a volcano, and the regeneration pool itself will quickly disappear, leaving nothing in its original place.

After it erupts, torches may grow on the surrounding light-chasing creatures... They will quickly absorb nutrients from the creatures and grow, and then repeat the above process.

Of course, it is the light-chasing creatures that help the torches repeat.

This is the entire life cycle of the torch. It is indeed like the ecology of some parasitic organisms. They are spread out on a large scale when they are larvae and parasitize any target they come into contact with.

However, although they are spread out on a large scale, very few torches can grow afterwards. On average, only one to two torches will grow in the nearby light-chasing organisms during each eruption.

But there is a small problem here: where does the regeneration pool come from?

Why do torches need it to reproduce, and why do they disappear after erupting?

Throughout history, many light-chasing creatures have tried to control the regeneration pool in order to control the appearance of torches, but the regeneration pool disappears after each eruption and then reappears randomly in different locations.

Even if it doesn't erupt, it will disappear after a while...which means that there is no living thing that can control and occupy it.

Some light-chasing creatures have also thought about living around it, because the regeneration pool itself also has an anti-coagulation field.

However, its random appearance makes it impossible to implement these ideas. Although there is more than one regeneration pool... they are too elusive.

And now something strange happened.

The regeneration pool… floated over.

Lin was also very sure that it was it that sent the signal to wake up all the torches, which was equivalent to killing all the torches.

Because the torches have no targets to parasitize, they can only lie there and wait to die when they wake up.

Lin felt that this regeneration pool should be a manager of all the torches. It controlled the reproduction of the torches and was also likely to monitor the light-chasing creatures.

"What is that! We seem to have attracted a creature that we shouldn't have! It's not recorded in our biological database, and it's a very new creature. What should we do with it?"

Although phoenixes are usually warlike, they can actually be very cautious sometimes...

For example, now... they don't plan to attack immediately, but to wait and see the situation here.

The other party seemed to have such an intention, as the ball of lava floated in the sky without any movement.

This situation lasted for about a hundred seconds, and Lin realized that a phoenix was about to do something.

"We should hit it and see if it will hit us. But hitting it carelessly could lead to danger! However, we should still give it a try and see!"

Because there are only more than a hundred phoenixes gathered into a signal tower, there are still hundreds of them that can move freely on the ground.

After discussing for a while, the phoenixes decided to use some stone fragments on the ground to hit each other.

'Bang!'

Then Lin discovered that several stones were thrown out by the Phoenix with great force... and they hit the lava ball.

Just like being thrown into ordinary lake water, the stone created ripples on the lava.

This effect... feels really amazing.

The lava ball also started moving at this time.

It suddenly seemed to boil, and countless bubbles appeared on the surface. These bubbles soon burst, and many gifts flew out from them to the Phoenix.

These returns made Xue Guang appear in the shocked area again.

Because that's a lot of...torches.
