This was … a volcano?
The three arks swam slowly across the dark seabed. Many huge cracks could be seen on the seabed. Rumbling sounds were accompanied by large amounts of smoke rising from the cracks.
This phenomenon seemed to be more common in the sea. When the arks swam across the surface, they could feel the high temperature contained in the smoke. The smoke was filled with debris and even some creatures.
It was the first time the dragons on the arks had seen this phenomenon. They were shocked by the smoke rising from the seabed and gathered around the arks to observe.
Boom! Lin suddenly heard a series of loud noises. An even larger crack suddenly appeared on the seabed, and a large amount of smoke and dust gushed out from it.
The seabed here seemed to be unstable. Lin made the arks speed up and quickly moved away from this place.
Normally, Lin would have explored more, but now she needed to transport the creatures on the surface to a safe place.
After leaving the area that might have been a volcano, the arks arrived at … an area that was obviously a volcano.
The topography of the sea here was strange. Conical rocks that were more than ten meters tall stood on the seabed. There were many cracks on the rocks, and large amounts of smoke rose from these cracks …
But it was different here. There were many creatures moving around in the water. There were quite a variety of creatures around the smoke pillars, such as worms, sea urchins, trilobites, and so on.
They all fed on the smoke in the water. The smoke contained a large amount of fungi, and the fungi fed on the nutrients in the smoke. This phenomenon was relatively common. But. There were some things that were very strange.
Some creatures flashing with strange colors were swimming around the arks. They … were observing the arks.
These creatures were about ten centimeters long, and there were many of them flashing with different colors around the arks. They were creatures that Lin was familiar with — ancient squids.
So these ancient squids were distributed so far away in the sea? Lin found that most of them were holding stones or sharp objects. Some of the ancient squids were trying to stab the transparent shell on the back of the arks with sharp objects, as if they were trying to make a hole to crawl in.
Lin found that the ancient squids seemed to be growing. Compared to the small groups before, this was an extremely large group. There were probably more than a hundred thousand of them. At the same time, they were constantly changing colors. This was a way for them to communicate with each other. The ancient squid didn't have any 'language', but their ability to change colors was equivalent to 'writing'.
However, the combination of tools they used was still very simple. They only picked up some sharp objects and used them as' weapons'. Lin believed that they were probably similar to the wild Skeleton Dragons or White Skeleton Dragons, and would not use anything too complicated.
But that was to be expected. If they didn't receive any special 'guidance', Lin believed that individual creatures would stay in this period for a long time until they experienced a special turning point.
"Quack. What are those things? "" They seem to be holding spears and trying to stab us. "" They look so strange. " The skeletal dragons on the back of the ark also noticed the group of ancient squids. They curiously looked at these creatures that changed color and started a discussion.
Lin didn't quite understand Guyou's' language '. However, they were obviously having a heated discussion about the ark and the skeletal dragons on it. Some of the ancient squids even aimed at the skeletal dragons' faces, but they were all bounced off by the transparent shells …
Suddenly, Lin heard a strange sound. The ancient squids surrounding the ark suddenly changed colors as if they were frightened. Then, they all swam away from the ark and swam to the seabed, drilling into the small holes on the seabed …
It seemed like they lived under the seabed? Perhaps they had built a 'city' underground. Lin immediately wanted to take a look at them.
But for now, it was better to observe what was in front of them.
What made the ancient squids run away wasn't some other phenomenon, but a … creature.
Those creatures appeared in the sea in front of the ark. They looked like salamanders. There were many of them, hundreds of them, and each of them was more than five meters long.
Lin ordered the ark to slow down and observed the salamanders swimming past with the Humerus Dragon and the Emerald Dragon. Lin noticed that there were many wrinkles on the salamanders' skin, and within these wrinkles, a small creature was clinging to them — the ancient squid.
Were they … carrying an ancient squid?
The salamanders swam around the ark. They seemed to be very curious about the ark, but they seemed to have other things to do. When they got close to the seabed, a large number of ancient squids swam out from the salamanders and rushed down with all kinds of 'weapons'.
At the same time, a large number of ancient squids emerged from the small holes on the seabed. The ancient squids on both sides fought, and the salamanders joined in the battle. They devoured the ancient squids that came out from the seabed with big mouthfuls.
So this was a war. Had they reached the level where they could wage such a war? But were these salamanders a symbiotic species? Moreover, they didn't seem to distinguish between targets when they devoured. Sometimes, they would even devour their own ancient squids. But most of the time, they would change into a special color to let the salamanders recognize them.
The ancient squids that lived on the seabed didn't change into this color. It seemed like they didn't know how to speak this kind of language …
In addition to stabbing, their fighting style was to put sharp objects on their mouths and spray them out. Although it looked very simple, it was quite crazy when they fought. Not long after, a large number of corpses floated in the sea. Even the group of salamanders that were more than five meters long couldn't finish eating them all.
So they could wage a war of such a scale against their own kind? Although they didn't know what their purpose was, it might be to snatch food or something like that. At this stage, the thoughts of individual creatures were relatively simple.
Although the Humerus Dragons could not see the battle near the seabed as they were on the back of the ark, Lin could show them through the Monitor. When the huge Monitor opened up under each of the rocky mountains, the Humerus Dragons and the Emerald Dragons were shocked. However, they were soon attracted by the images on the screen...
This scene surprised them once again, and the reason for their surprise was different from before.
Previously, it was because they saw something wonderful, but this time, it was because they saw something very familiar.
The ancient squids' war made these dragons think of themselves. Floating astronomy.
