Now, Lin's eyeballs were located in the deep sea, observing the activities of some creatures.
The skeletal dragon's' sea city 'was located on the west side of the island, while Lin was observing the east side, the sea between the mainland and the island.
There was no city at the bottom of the sea here, instead it was covered by flat white sand. Many colorful sea creatures were active on it, but recently, some special creatures had come here.
Standing scorpions.
A large number of flying scorpions used their 'wings' to swim around in the water. Most of them were hunting, while some were constantly digging on the beach of the seabed. Some were piling up stones to form pyramids.
They seemed to want to build a new 'standing scorpion city' here. They had followed the skyjellyfish to this area, probably to settle down here.
Not only the flying scorpions, but many sickle scorpions were also active in the sea, but their form in the water was just as the brain worm said, very dull.
Lin didn't know if these scorpions would be able to transform again. She didn't think it was possible for them to do so, but she did find something wonderful among them.
In some small pyramids piled up by the standing scorpions in the sea, Lin saw many eggs … or perhaps it should be called 'standing scorpion pupae', these were the forms of the standing scorpions in the process of transformation.
Clearly, some of the standing scorpions were transforming, but she didn't know if they were the first 'primitive' standing scorpions or flying scorpions, because there were still some primitive standing scorpions left.
But what they would become was the important thing, because there was no war now. It shouldn't be a fighting type of standing scorpions. Could it be a queen?
But the queen didn't seem to be of much use to the standing scorpions. They could give birth on their own, and the queen's function was to make other members of the same species give up on reproduction to do other things, rather than to make the species reproduce faster.
At the same time, the queen didn't have the ability to command. Although the name 'queen' seemed to have a very high 'status', it wasn't the case. Even the queen couldn't be commanded.
Ants used a method similar to the Incan swarm, using a large number of group thoughts and pheromones to create a 'group consciousness', and only troops that acted as the brain, like the brain worm, had the ability to command.
Then, could the standing scorpions create a brain?
'This doesn't seem possible … The information from the mainframe shouldn't be stored in the Recording Orb, but they are indeed undergoing some kind of change … a change that is beneficial to building the new city. '
Over at the White Skeleton Dragons' side, they were also undergoing some kind of change …
The Mountain King had already announced to the entire city about the mainland, telling all the citizens how beautiful it was on the mainland, covered in forests. Wonderful creatures were everywhere, and its description made the residents of the entire City of Skeletal Dragons excited. Every Skeleton Dragon seemed to be eager to go to the Creator's land.
Of course, the Mountain King was the 'vanguard'. It had already decided to explore the continent, and it seemed to intend to stake its life on Jing Kuang's words …
Jing Kuang, on the other hand, was hailed by the King of the Mountain as the 'Explorer Warrior'. Jing Kuang was rewarded with a large number of shells, and at the same time, it was given the largest room in the castle — a circular space with a diameter of about thirty meters.
Of course, these things were not enough to exchange for the huge crystal, which was merely a 'reward' for Jing Kuang.
As for the crystal, the king did not seem to want it very much. He was more interested in the place where Jing Kuang said there were a large number of crystals.
Thus, the formation of the troops began. Lin found that the king had been gathering a large number of troops for the past few days and nights. He planned to send out a team of thousands of Skeleton Dragons to explore the mainland.
However, there was only one Skyjellyfish, and it could only carry a limited number of people. It was difficult for the Mountain King to fly over with a large number of troops … So, the Mountain King planned to swim over!
The mainland could actually be seen on the east side of the island. It was a vast wasteland with only rocks and sand on it, so the Skeleton Dragons did not think of going to the mainland.
It was not until Jing Kuang flew to the mainland that they realized that the mainland was such a wonderful place. If they could fly over it, then they could definitely walk over on land, right?
The Jing Kuang did not clearly explain this point. It just repeated how wonderful the mainland was and so on.
Lin felt that the king had walked into a trap. This was the case from the moment he decided to lead the troops.
Lin was very interested in the current situation of the Skeleton Dragons. If they reached the mainland, they would obviously encounter all kinds of situations, but before that, Lin wanted to figure out their origins.
Now, the spy was in the castle of Sea City, and found the room of another Prophet.
This Prophet was not as talkative as the last one. As soon as he saw the spy, he was so scared that he shouted for the guards, so Lin had to numb him first before looking at the contents of his room.
There was an identical stone slab in this Prophet's room, on which were written the rules of the Prophet. It was exactly the same as the one in the castle on the mountain. There seemed to be some problems if one violated the rules.
For example, the old Skeleton Dragon Prophet on the mountain had violated the rule of not roaring, causing his relatively fragile vocal cords to be injured. It was estimated that he would not be able to use his voice to explore in the future.
Although some of the rules looked strange, most of them should be correct, and the creature who set these rules should be the 'Creator'.
Moreover, Lin also found the 'follow-up' part of this type of stone slab. There were several other stone slabs with more things written on them, and one of them recorded … 'The Prophet's Mission'.
The Prophet's role was to guide his companions, but there was also a special mission called 'summoning' …
It was said that the Prophet could talk to the Creator at a certain time and summon the Creator. The symbols written below were all symbols that Lin could not understand …
They should also be words, but they were not the words commonly used by the Skeleton Dragons. It seemed to record the method of summoning and the location.
Did this mean that the 'Creator' would appear again? However, this stone slab might not be accurate. It could be the imagination of the Skeleton Dragons themselves.
However, the Skeleton Dragons now unanimously believed that they had left the land of the 'Creator', and that the Creator would not appear again.
In other words, the Creator might appear on the mainland. This way, they had a target to look for.
The huge salt flats in the wasteland should be the most suspicious place. The Skeleton Dragons should have lived there before, although Lin did not find any traces of buildings similar to those of the Skeleton Dragons …
Generally, stone buildings could be preserved for a long time. In any case, they should dig there and take a look.
Apart from that, Lin also found that this Prophet also liked to keep a 'diary', but it did not write about itself, but about … the Sea King.
For some reason, it recorded everything about the Sea King, including what the Sea King ate every day and night, what he did, and so on.
It seemed to observe the Sea King very deeply. Lin felt that it might have some special 'feelings' for the Sea King.
What Lin was most concerned about was that it mentioned some strange things about the Sea King.
The Sea King was a rather special king. It was different from the Mountain King. The Skeleton Dragon residents in the city in the sea liked this king very much. This was probably because its personality was more 'easy-going' than the Mountain King. The Sea King cared more about its residents than its own interests.
However, Lin noticed that the Sea King rarely left the castle or did anything else. It was almost always holed up in its own room in the castle. Every day and night, other than eating and sleeping, it would be in a daze. Occasionally, it would deal with some matters, such as planning the construction of the city in the sea, and so on.
However, the Prophet's diary said that the Sea King would occasionally sneak out of the castle, as if it was doing something strange …
Because it was too empty outside, the Prophet could not 'follow' the Sea King in the sea, so it did not know what the Sea King was doing outside …
Because of this, Lin began to observe the Sea King continuously. Finally, she saw the Sea King leave the castle.
When it left, the spy secretly followed behind it.
The Sea King slowly walked through the castle's corridors and came to an exit. There were exits everywhere in the castle. Most of them were passageways on the walls or on the ground. After entering, one could enter the water by walking down for a while.
The Sea King was particularly suspicious because it had secretly avoided the guards. The spy followed it in the water. It left the castle and swam in the direction of the trench.
The trench was relatively wide, about a hundred meters. Most land creatures would feel fear swimming in such a dark and huge place, but the Sea King did not seem to be afraid …
Perhaps it came here often? It was just as the Prophet had recorded.
When the Sea King swam to the other side of the trench, it seemed to be out of breath. It quickly swam to the surface, took a breath, and swam into the sea again.
This time, the Sea King dived quite deep in one breath. It landed on the seabed at the edge of the trench and turned over some soil. Lin found that buried under the soil was a … crystal?
No, this was a split brain created by the brain-creating monster. The Sea King picked up the split brain and placed it on its head …
After a few seconds, it put down the split brain and quickly swam to the surface to breathe.
Was the Sea King affected by the split brain? But why did it not affect the other White Skeleton Dragons? Floating astronomy.
