"So this is … what this world looks like?"
Inside the ark, the skeleton dragons and emerald dragons were shown the current situation of various places, including the various islands on the sea, the dinosaur continent, and the current situation of the Northern Continent.
Lin felt that it was necessary to let them know what was going on, and to 'explain' to them that this world was likely to be shrouded in cold for a very long time.
They needed to live in a place that was completely different from what they expected. There may not be sunlight there, but it was still full of warmth …
For this reason, Lin's ark arrived at the bottom of a cliff … This cliff led to a canyon in the mainland. In the past, because the cliff collapsed, water rushed in and flooded the underground world. After the water receded, for some reason, water rushed in again and caused the surrounding area to collapse. The place where water entered was blocked, so the water did not recede, but formed a river of ice in the canyon.
Lin believed that there was something warm inside the river of ice in the canyon.
Lin could create organs that could produce heat, but if there was a source of warmth, the energy required to guide the heat out would be much less.
After all, it might last for a long time until the end of the cold.
Under normal circumstances, Lin didn't like to form her own ecosystem. This was different from creating an environment. In the past, Lin only created an environment where she placed seeds and creatures to grow freely. If she provided the warmth and nutrients herself, she felt that the chances of interesting creatures appearing would be lower …
But there was no other way now.
However, Lin didn't want to make a place that was too big, as long as the creatures here could survive, so the cliff that was originally an underground world was a good choice.
At this time. The rocky mountains on the back of the first and second arks opened. Long tentacles stretched out from them. They connected to the cliff in front of the ark.
"It's time to go!" Under the lead of Susumi and Liddle, the skeleton dragons and emerald dragons climbed up the rocky mountains and climbed up the cliff along the tentacles.
The skeleton dragons were good at climbing, but a few emerald dragons almost fell down.
Lin let them land first. These dragons were all wearing leather to keep them warm. Even the gnomes were wrapped so that they could stay outside and familiarize themselves with the cold.
In fact, Lin believed that if the skeleton dragons directly gave birth like Mao Yu and did not lay eggs, they might be able to survive this cold period. They could keep themselves warm, but it was very difficult to keep their eggs warm. It wasn't as simple as wrapping them in something warm. At their current level, it was almost impossible for most of their eggs to survive.
But dwarves … It was possible, because the way dwarves reproduce was similar to Mao Yu. Although they also had the process of 'laying eggs', they let the eggs hatch directly in their bodies …
In other words, the dwarves on the dinosaur continent were also creatures with hope.
Now, the Dragon Capital was almost on land. When the Skeleton Dragons and Emerald Dragons came to land, the Dragon Capital and the Emerald Dragons were about to land. They looked at the frozen canyon and sighed again.
The Skeleton Dragons and the Emerald Dragons had not ascended to the same place. They happened to be opposite each other. They were separated by a cliff that was more than ten kilometers wide.
After that, Lin planned to let them live separately so that the Emerald Dragon would not have any influence on the Skeleton Dragon.
Soon, they began to set up camp beside the river. At this time, Lin also brought a large number of small creatures from the first and second arks to land.
These included small dinosaurs, some rare species of Mao Yu, and the 'mutated Mao Yu' created by the creator. They were now in a state of hibernation. Lin used a special unit to wrap them up and showed them their usual living environment in their dreams.
The plants inside the ark were also preserved by Lin and placed on land. After the ark was' unloaded ', the interior of the ark began to undergo some new changes. Lin first decomposed the multi-layered space where the plants and animals were stored, then reconstructed new internal organs and various other organs.
The two arks were transformed into a new unit to create a new living environment. It would take some time to create something large and complex. During this time, Lin continued to explore.
Although there was something warm beneath the frozen river, they still didn't know what it was, so they had to take a closer look. Lin had already awakened the base in the Northern Continent. The base itself didn't seem to have any abnormalities, so Lin had the base begin to devour the surrounding wreckage and create a type of scouting unit.
It was called the 'Ice Drill'.
In fact, it was a type of 5-meter-long worm-type unit. Its carapace could resist the cold, allowing it to quickly move through the ice. At the same time, it also had the ability to receive and transmit brainwave signals, allowing them to use their brainwave to explore their surroundings.
Lin only needed to create a single main brain to release brainwave signals, she did not need to create many brains.
Lin placed the group of Ice Drill at the back of the canyon, where the forest was, and began to drill through the ice. Lin would explore the environment under the ice.
The Ice Drill rapidly drilled through the ice. Lin discovered that there were some frozen creatures here. It felt as if the water here had suddenly frozen, and the ice seemed to have reached a very deep place. After drilling down for several dozen meters, Lin discovered that there were still ice blocks around her.
Wait a minute, this is …
The Ice Drill at the front suddenly bumped into something hard. Lin discovered that it was not ice, but … a crystal? Because it was almost the same color as ice, she didn't notice it at first …
The Ice Drill sped up and drilled through the crystal that wasn't too thick in front of it. The Ice Drill immediately entered a cold place.
This is … water? Lin discovered that the area at the bottom of the ice layer didn't seem to be frozen.
The Ice Drill all drilled in and slowly swam through the water under the ice river. The water here was very cold, but it wasn't frozen yet. But in fact, for creatures, staying in this kind of water would cause them to lose heat faster than staying in ice.
At the bottom of this place, Lin also discovered the remains of many creatures, including fish and benthic creatures. The light emitted by the Ice Drill's head illuminated this place, but Lin's attention was mainly focused on a fish bone on the ground.
The fish bone looked like a shark's bone. Sharks had no ribs, only a spine and skull apart from fins, so it was very easy to identify. But this bone was very strange … there was actually some meat on it.
It looked like it had just been eaten. Could there be creatures here?
Lin had the Ice Drill quickly spread out to explore. They began to swim towards the sea, while the others swam in the opposite direction.
Along the way, Lin saw many familiar sights, such as the gigantic Sonic Rock, and some traces of plants. The bottom of the glacier wasn't frozen for more than ten meters, which seemed to be because the ground was relatively warm. Perhaps there was something going on underground.
The Ice Drill swam towards the sea and arrived at a place. This place was once the habitat of the Inca insects. On the ground here, the circular pits that they used to excavate fossils and raise creatures were still here.
The Ice Drill explored the two nearest pits. There was nothing special inside, only cold water. But when it came to the third pit …
What was this?
Lin could clearly feel a warm feeling coming from the pit. When the Ice Drill approached, Lin saw a strange scene.
When the Ice Drill's light illuminated the pit, the same light was reflected back. There was a large crystal inside the pit, and this crystal … had a very strange shape.
It looked like a rock mountain built by the Cephalopods. Its shape was irregular, and the crystal stood in the pit. There were many small holes on it, allowing creatures to enter and exit.
And the creatures that moved in and out of the crystal were … ancient squids. Many ancient squids lived here. They lay on the crystal and moved within the crystal. When the Ice Drill shone on them, they all seemed to be stunned. They all became motionless and turned into the same color as their surroundings …
They were all still alive, and they seemed to be very lively …
Thinking of this, Lin had the Ice Drill stop shining. She switched to using sound and brainwave detection. After the light disappeared, the ancient squids started moving again.
Lin then realized that the ancient squids hadn't completely adapted to the darkness. Their bodies were shining faintly. The light was too bright earlier, so she couldn't see it. But after the Ice Drill stopped shining, it was especially obvious.
These ancient squids were now rapidly drilling into the crystal and using some things to block the hole. They seemed to be panicking because the Ice Driller had shone on them.
It seemed that the light couldn't scare them here.
Lin then proceeded to explore the surrounding Inca pits. Some of these pits were inhabited by ancient squids, while others were empty.
Their way of living was almost the same. They built a crystal in the pit and lived inside it. The shape of the crystal was like the rock mountain of the Cephalopods, or a mound built by a creature called a termite.
It was still unclear where they got these crystals.
However, they knew that the reason they lived here was because the pit was very warm. The crystals they found had the ability to keep them warm, while the pits without ancient squids didn't feel warm.
While exploring the crater, some of the Icedrills that were swimming toward the end of the canyon also saw a similar scene. The end of the underground world was originally connected to a mountain, and there was a vast wasteland and a rift valley at that location.
The Ice Drill was now near the rift valley. Lin also found a group of ancient squids there. Floating astronomy.
