8 Chapter 8 (1/2)

Cold, this is the only information in this water.

Lin's acid injectors and cone cells have all been sacrificed in the spreading ice. Only 91 diggers have survived. They form a circle, so that Lin's observers are not bothered by the freezing.

Outside of this circle, there is already a world of ice. Through the transparent bodies of these diggers, Lin can see that it is different from the blue and deep liquid water before, but is a static and bright state.

Lin's community suffered heavy losses under this seemingly beautiful crystal. Although it is not known how the diggers were not frozen in the end, Lin no longer wants to stay here.

Lin asked the diggers to move and try to see if they could find a way to leave here.

Some of the diggers are stuck to the ice, but they can be detached with a little twisting.

These diggers seem to have evolved. The previous cells will be frozen instantly as soon as they touch the ice, but they are much better.

However, as they moved, Lin could clearly feel the kind of cold touch that the outer membrane of the cell touched ice crystals ...

This seems to be a pain, but unlike the ordinary pain, Lin did not have a strong desire to get rid of pain, but instead made Lin feel like wanting to shrink into a ball, without moving.

However, this feeling did not affect Lin ’s activities,

This area was frozen, and the remaining swimming water was only the small place where Lin's ninety-two cells were located. All the surrounding water became ice impassable.

Maybe it can be dug?

Lin tried to let the digger use the sawtooth on the surface to scrape the ice crystals, but this action did not help except to create some ice chips. It was almost impossible to break the ice that frozen the whole water.

Lynn didn't know what to do.

The large reduction of the community has made Lin's intelligence reduced again, and it can't think about too complicated things.

But in fact, even if Lin had more than a thousand communities of wisdom at that time, it would be useless. At this time, she could only wait.

Luck or death.

I don't know how long it took. Although Lin knew the word time, but didn't know its concept, Lin felt the influence of time.

The first is ... hunger.

Lin felt hunger for the first time. There seemed to be a feeling in her thoughts, calling it to find food to supplement the energy loss caused by the activity.

Lin asked the diggers to stop sawing the ice layer and reduce energy loss by reducing activity. It can still understand this knowledge.

However, immobility does not mean pause. The cells are still consuming energy, even slower than when they are moving.

Lin continued to wait. It did what every creature should do. When it couldn't do anything, it stopped its activities and waited for the things around it that it could do.

In the process of waiting, several diggers experienced energy exhaustion, which is a special kind of pain. Unlike other pains, when the energy is exhausted, the cell membrane and core will begin to slowly Shrinks, becomes dry and small, and eventually dies.

Lynn let other cells eat these dead bodies of energy, and their death allowed other cells to fight for more time.

The phenomenon of starvation caused a new idea in Lin's mind.

Each time the cells eat food, they digest it quickly and then divide it. They quickly consume the energy they get.

But what if there is a way to store energy?If there is a way to save a lot of energy in the cell, you wo n’t have to worry about this situation again.

Lynn thought of a new word ... fat.

Although I don't understand the detailed meaning, the word seems to represent stored food.

So, next time you must try to see if you can store food.

If you can go out alive ...
