This was a wonderful phenomenon...
Now, Lin's Rock Spider was looking at the rugby balls flying around in the sky while examining the rugby balls that had fallen to the ground... or rather, the corpses. ● *
Since they started running away, the number of corpses had been increasing.
Lin examined the creatures to see their cause of death... Rugby balls were similar to jellyfish in that they used some light gas to fly. However, during the examination, Lin found another strange thing about rugby balls.
Their brains were strange.
At first, Lin thought that they were smarter because they had bigger brains, but in fact, their brains were not that big. Lin thought that they might not have this level of intelligence.
Moreover, not only did they not have this kind of intelligence, Lin also found that their brains could not even control their entire bodies.
The main reason was that their brains were not connected to some parts of their bodies, and because their brains were too small, it was difficult for their brains to move their bodies.
However, they could still move quickly and showed a considerable degree of intelligence.
Maybe the brain was not their main structure? Or maybe there was some unknown structure in their bodies that allowed them to have intelligence? Or maybe their muscle cells did not need to be commanded to move by themselves?
In order to confirm this, Lin examined many rugby ball corpses. These rugby balls were all the same. The main thing was that their brains were not developed and they did not have this kind of intelligence.
It seemed that they were not alone. Every rugby ball that Lin examined was exactly the same. Why did they have such small... brains?
Lin thought that she should catch a live one to see.
The Rock Spider climbed on top of a house. It looked at the rugby balls flying around. The Rock Spider instantly jumped up. After pouncing on the target, it quickly let the tiny worms drill into its skin.
Then, Lin let go of the rugby ball. The rugby ball was obviously more frightened by the attack, but its internal structure was still full of vitality. Lin's worms quickly multiplied in its body and then checked all its organs.
Sure enough, a living rugby ball was no different from a corpse. Their brains were all so strange.
Their brains only had the ability to directly command part of their bodies, and the rest could not be commanded. However, Lin found that it was not completely impossible.
When their bodies moved, the muscle cells would first show some special behavior, and there would be some reactions in the cells.
These reactions meant that the cells had received some kind of command to start moving, and they did not move on their own.
This could be easily distinguished. Those cells that could move on their own would not have such a 'receiving response'.
However, the rugby ball's brain obviously did not send commands to its cells. They did not even have nerve connections, so it was very likely that something special was commanding its cells.
Just as Lin was thinking. The rugby ball suddenly stopped moving and fell to the ground.
He was dead.
At the moment of death. The rugby ball's brain stopped working, and all the other organs that were under the command of the brain and not under the command of the brain stopped working in an instant.
They couldn't tell what had attacked them, but they died just like that …
And this situation continued for a long time … It was only when the world was almost at night that the 'massacre' stopped.
…
The light of the starry sky illuminated the earth.
In the rugby town, there were corpses everywhere. Because they had not decomposed, there was no smell and it was quite quiet.
The rugby ball survivors had all left the town, heading somewhere unknown. Lin had one of her rock spiders follow them while the other stayed here to conduct research.
This massacre appeared very strange. However, Lin felt that this was a relatively normal thing for rugby ball. Moreover, this was not something that only happened in rugby ball.
Some of Lin's other rock spiders had also reached the forest. As they explored the forest, they would occasionally find some creatures. These creatures died without any external or internal injuries.
The dead bodies would quickly be eaten by other creatures. However, some of them were still found by Lin before they were eaten.
These creatures all had one thing in common, that was, their brains were relatively small. It could be said that their brains were incomplete.
As for the tentacle she saw last time, it had a complete brain. Clearly, she could determine its intelligence by observing its brain. However, many of these creatures that suddenly died had brains that were not commensurate with their bodies. Additionally, Lin also noticed that many of these creatures did not have a 'memory area' in their brains.
Although it was not apparent on the surface, Lin could already guess what was going on.
Lin felt that in order to find the answer, she would need to find some special places. For example, the location of the nucleus protector, or for example …
Perhaps she would find the answer by following the rugby ball.
Due to the previous massacre, the rugby ball had abandoned the town and was rapidly moving through the forest. It did not take long for Lin to find that they had arrived at a new town.
This small town was much bigger than the previous one, and here, Lin saw even more strange things.
Not only were there rugby ball houses here, Lin also saw many statues and some houses that did not appear to be built by rugby balls.
There seemed to be more creatures living here. Lin also saw some non-rugby ball creatures moving about in the town. However, before entering the town, the rock spiders first caught the slowest rugby ball and examined its brain memory.
Through its memory … Lin found out that these rugby ball towns were scattered all over the forest. They would also live together with other creatures.
And then …
That was it.
That was because the rugby ball's brain was like that. Although it had a memory area, its memory area was incomplete and only a small part of its memory could be seen.
Clearly, they were relying on some other means of survival.
With that in mind, Lin had the rock spiders enter the town.
There were quite a lot of creatures living in this town. Lin felt that some of them belonged to a division of labor. Basically, they were all multicellular creatures. There were also some rocky creatures mixed in.
These creatures seemed to have the same characteristic as the rugby ball. Their brains were all 'defective'.
However, they were all able to live normally and did not show any signs of being defective at all.
The answer to this matter might lie in the centre of this town. There was a special statue there. A considerable amount of 'energy' gathered around the statue. The creatures here seemed to worship the statue.
