Chapter 612 Ear

This giant earfly spoke without any ups and downs, but Mo Ling could sense its pessimism. Facing the flock of predatory birds, this earfly known as the "chieftain" was helpless.

The guard was still unwilling to give up. He approached the chieftain and said with some sadness: "But we have just settled down. Everyone has just adapted to this place. Those newborns have just been born. If we leave now, those newborns may not be able to adapt to the migration and they may die..."

Hearing the guard's words, the chieftain fell silent. After a long time, his voice came again.

"If we leave now, some of us can still survive. If we stay, we will all die."

"Is there no other way?"

"No." The chief said bluntly: "The flock of predatory birds is invincible. If you resist stubbornly, you will only die. You are still young, and you don't know how prosperous the original earfly population was. But such a prosperous population could not resist the flock of predatory birds, let alone us now..."

Speaking of this, the chief seemed a little sad, and told the guard about the past of the earfly population...

Earflies are a very weak life.

They feed on sounds and are scattered all over the mountains and forests.

For generations, they have lived in the depths of Tianjin Mountain.

Newborns cannot be exposed to too noisy sounds from birth, and can only feed on some soft sounds.

The sound of gurgling streams, the sound of wind blowing leaves, the friction of insects crawling in the mountains...Newborns will eat these fragile sounds and grow up slowly.

When they grow up, their ability to withstand sounds will become stronger, and their thinking will become clearer, and they will no longer be as muddleheaded as in their larval stage.

At that time, the earfly tribe established a huge tribe in the depths of Tianjin Mountain. They had no competition for resources with other creatures. They just wanted to slowly collect various sounds and then pass them on to other companions.

They can imitate different sounds and pass them on to other tribes. In the constant communication, the tribal civilization of the earflies became more and more prosperous.

The more sounds they collected, the clearer the earflies' understanding of the world became, and they also began to study the nature of sound.

Thanks to their strong hearing and understanding of sound, they quickly figured out the source of sound-

The essence of sound is the vibration of things, and different vibrations show different sounds.

The earflies also discovered that they actually do not feed on sound, but on the energy transmitted by sound.

Newborns can withstand less energy, while adults can withstand more energy. As the earflies age, they will withstand more and more sound energy.

After figuring out the nature of sound, the earflies' research on various sounds became systematic. They classified sounds transmitted by different sound sources and different media. For the first time, these weak creatures knocked on the door of "science" and began the process of civilization.

However, they only thought about understanding the world through different sounds, but never thought about using sounds to make weapons and strengthen themselves.

They have always been at peace with the world and have no natural enemies. They never thought that a disaster would come quietly.

Predatory birds appeared...

These giant birds that appeared out of thin air have amazing reproductive ability, copper heads, iron feathers, sharp teeth and claws, and suddenly appeared from the other side of Tianjin Mountain.

The ear flies had no idea where they came from, and there was no sign. They suddenly poured into Tianjin Mountain.

These predatory birds devoured any living creatures they saw crazily. As long as they were living creatures that could move, they would be surrounded and killed by them and eaten up.

The ear flies were obsessed with the study of sound and did not realize the arrival of the disaster. In just three days, the ear fly tribe deep in Tianjin Mountain was slaughtered to one in ten.

Some ear flies wanted to resist, but they were slaughtered more thoroughly.

Some tribes of ear flies found that predatory birds only attack active creatures, so they hid underground and pretended to be inactive plants, but predatory birds could see through their disguise and dig them out.

Predatory birds would find ways to destroy places that could not be entered, and they would not leave any way to survive.

In the end, the remaining ear flies were injured or escaped, and the budding of civilization was forcibly curbed.

The ear flies were divided into different groups and fled to different places, but every time they arrived at a place, the predatory birds would chase them after a period of time, and the ear flies had no chance to rebuild civilization.

Although the ear flies reproduced very quickly, the newborns could not withstand enough sound energy when they were just born, and could only grow up in a quiet place, so every migration would cause a large number of newborn deaths.

However, facing such terrifying birds, the ear flies had only one choice, migration, so the group continued to fall apart.

They ran from the depths of Tianjin Mountain to the periphery, from the periphery to the forest, from the forest to the cave outside the beach, hiding and hiding. After many twists and turns, the ear flies that had witnessed the slaughter of the flock of predatory birds also died.

The remaining newborns were urged to continue to escape before they had time to appreciate the beauty of the world of sound when they grew up.

"I don't want to escape all the time... I was just a tribal messenger..."

"Later, the first time I escaped, I became an escort for transporting newborns."

"The second time, I was ordered to be the guard of the old patriarch."

"When it was the fifth time, the old patriarch died, and I became the acting patriarch."

"The sixth and seventh times, they supported me as the new patriarch."

"The eighth time, it was safe... The ninth and tenth times, there were dangers everywhere, but I managed to run away with everyone..."

"You may not understand how terrible those predatory birds are. They will not completely make you lose consciousness. They will use their sharp beaks to drill holes in your body, take you to the nest, and let the cubs gnaw you. If you dare to resist, they will step on you with their claws, torture you, and tear you apart completely..."

"The old patriarch died like that. I don't want to see any of my compatriots experience that again."

The voice of the chief patriarch trembled. When he finished speaking these words, the several ear flies present were all stunned, and there was silence in the depths of the cave.

The fear brought by the predatory birds has been deeply engraved in the heart of the chief patriarch. He did not have the courage to think of other ways to deal with it, nor did he dare to gamble with the safety of the entire tribe.

However, at this moment, the earfly that brought Mo Ling here broke the silence:

"They are indeed terrible, but they are not invincible."

"What?" The chief asked in disbelief: "Did the tree hole tribe find a way to deal with them?"

"Yes." The earfly replied: "But we failed..."
