4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

This is an evolutionary creature.

Lynn's inquiries dragged a crawling creature from the water and observed it carefully.

The creature is about two meters long. It can easily kill a sophist in the water, but then Lin makes it easier for more creatures to rush into the water.

Although this creature is like a reptile, the neck is relatively long, and the bones on the hands and feet begin to close together. This structure seems to be very suitable for living in the water. Lin believes that it was originally living on land and then intends to return to the water.

In fact, this evolutionary creature is more common, but in this lake Lin Lin also found something more interesting.

When the attacker was attacked by a reptile, the sounder detected some special traces in the sound. He was engraved on the rock at the bottom of the lake. Lin knew that the Inca swarm liked to get this kind of thing. It should be the passage.

The stunners jumped into the water again, and Lin shined this time and found that it was a circular nick with a diameter of more than two meters carved on the bottom of the lake.

The stunners pulled the claws into the cracks and pulled them hard. As a result, there was a sound of 'Qianlong...', and the entire circular nick was slowly moved to the side, revealing a spacious rear. Channel.

After entering this passage, Lin found that the water here has become clean. Only the lake before is muddy, and there are some older marine creatures, such as trilobites and flatfish. It seems that there is no light for a long time. The relationship between their eyes has deteriorated, but other perceptual abilities are very developed, and when Lin is close, they all escape.

Other creatures like this. Will degenerate the useless organs. Lin never did this kind of thing. Who knows that even if it is useless now, will it be useful in the future?

The Detective's door swam about a hundred meters in the passage and found that the passage began to bend upwards. After passing this point, Lin reached a spacious space again.

Why do the Inca insects like to get an open space after a while? Why don't you all concentrate together?

But this space... is very special.

The space is square in shape, about 50 meters wide, and the height is almost the same, and it is full of sea water. There are also a lot of strange things in this place.

The voice detectors use sound to detect the shape of these things. They are different in shape and large and small. This is an item that the Inca insects are very good at making - the statue.

Are they also saving cells here? But Lynn believes that it is not a good environment in the sea, they may corrode those statues.

These statues are arranged neatly in rows and rows, unlike the piles of home trees, which seem to be specially arranged.

Lynn's Detective is close to a statue closest to the entrance, a worm shape that is just over a metre long, and the entire statue is filled with cracks and decay. There are also a few snail creatures crawling above, as if it has been put on for a long time.

Lynn noticed. This worm seems to be quite primitive.

Although worms are very common, they are actually very special creatures. They are almost the evolutionary predecessors of all arthropods and vertebrae. The ancestral multicellular organisms shared by arthropods and reptiles are usually worms and then slow. Slowly develop into other forms.

The statue of this worm is like the worm before evolution. It is primitive and ancient. There is only one long body that feeds on phagocytic bacteria. Is it possible that the Inca group has such worm cells?

Lin made a small hole in the statue to explore inside, but did not find any small cells in the storage cell, just a pure statue.

Then Lin looked at the second statue next to the worm. What is this thing? Lin saw a shape of ‘>’, which was also purposely placed on the ground, and the tip of ‘>’ pointed to the next statue.

The next statue is still a worm, but there is a circle of fangs in the mouth, and the body has a hardened structure, which looks like a predator.

Then the next one is a statue of ‘>’ shape.

What are they doing so strangely? What do you want to say about the statue of Inca?

Then Lin looked down again, and it was a statue of a worm, but this is bigger than before, and the various structures on the body have also increased.

Is it...

Lin suddenly thought of a possibility. Is the Inca swarm using a statue to illustrate the evolutionary path of these worms?

It is indeed possible that the Inca insects have been placed in fossils like this, and they are likely to record these conditions, but how do they record the evolution of a species? That seems to take quite a long time.

Lin doesn't know how long the history of the Inca group is, but it can't be more than tens of thousands of years from the visceral structure and cell decomposition of its various arms.

Of course, it is not that they did not exist tens of thousands of years ago, but the problem of intelligence.

As for intelligence, Lin also has a lot of research. Generally, the intelligence of a creature can only solve the basic living conditions. In fact, for example, how to use stones to make nests, how to find food, and so on.

At this stage, there will only be things in the brain of the creature that have direct interests with themselves. For example, if a creature sees a stone, it will only want to use it to make a nest, or ignore it, but as the head capacity increases, a The creatures have various doubts about the objects and promote the evolution of the brain.

For example, where does this stone come from? Why is it there? Why is it different from the surrounding objects? A lot of doubts, they will start to doubt the surrounding environment, and try to use the brain to understand their existence and source and so on.

Although this kind of thinking seems to be a lot of things, it can greatly promote the evolution of the brain. At present, Lin only finds that this is the case with divisional creatures, because their brains have a lot of free time, unlike other creatures. Not that much time.

Lin placed a lot of eyeballs in the twisted jungle and continued to observe the situation of environmental organisms. Lin found that some creatures would have this situation.

Lin has studied the brains of various Inca insects. Their basic proportions are around 1%. It may have evolved 100,000 years ago, but this is only speculation.

But perhaps watching these statues, you can know the history of the Inca swarm...

Lin continues to look at the statues of the Inca worms, which are actually expressing evolutionary relationships, each with a ‘>’ shape next to the next more evolved worm statue.

At the same time, Lin also noticed that these statues have been placed for a long time, but ‘>’ is new, as if it had just been made and put on.

According to the order of the statues, the worms that had nothing at all had become bigger and bigger. The teeth grew and the armor appeared. There were many barbs growing on the body. There was even a statue made of a cut. In half of the way, the Inca group made a detailed visceral structure in half of the body.

It seems that their research is even as detailed as Lin.

When Lin saw the 30th statue, she found that it was two worms entangled. Lin guessed that the Inca group means: gender.

They evolved from gender at this stage, but they didn't see how long it took.

Lin looked at the entire ninety statues, each one bigger than the front, and the degree of evolution was higher, but when it was ninety-one, it was found that the statue was a different limb creature, and the worm was On the body of this creature.

It seems to be a parasitic relationship. So, the worm did not evolve into a predator, but evolved into a parasite?

The next statue shows that the worm has penetrated into the creature. Because of the detailed visceral structure, Lynn sees the worms drill into the brain's part of the body, then parasitizes and slowly devours the brain.

The next statues are very strange, and each statue shows the worm eating the brain of the creature bit by bit and integrating it into the brain with its own body.

It can be seen that this worm seems to connect itself to the brain, and some are like Lin's readers.

However, when the worm slowly penetrated into the brain, Lin found that the body structure of the creature was also changing. It grew more claws and joints. The whole body became very weird. It should be said to be very deformed.

In the end, the creature died, but the worm got out and went on to find other biological parasites.

Some of the parasites that followed did not die, and it grew out of limbs that were less deformed, and the parasite seemed to use the creature to get nutrients for itself.

After the statue, there are many more in the same position, this is the Inca group in the expression of all the parasitic creatures have gathered together to form a special group lifestyle.

Every parasitic creature is different. They are responsible for a variety of different things, such as part of the battle, part of the reproduction, etc., and the basic mode of divisional biology appears.

The genital organs of these creatures still function, but only worms can be born, and worms parasit more organisms to join the population.

But in the end, these parasites slowly evolved and mutated, and finally became creatures that were completely different from those before the parasitism. The worms that were parasitic in the brain were no longer worms. They directly turned themselves into worms. A brain completely replaced the original brain.

Here, Lynn saw some familiar units of the Inca group, such as black bees and blasters.

Moreover, they no longer produce parasitic worms, but give the breeding tasks to the role of a queen. The queen comes from a very productive species, and it can directly produce various arms instead of giving birth to worms. They are combined with their respective hosts to become a brand new species...

At the very beginning, Lin thought that the Inca group was recording other creatures. Was this the evolutionary history of the Inca group? And they are actually from a parasitic worm? Although the details are not very clear. (To be continued...)
