195 195 The Origin of Purgatory (1/2)
Lin was hesitant to let the army invade the last territory of the Inca swarm, which is the area directly below the desert, but now, let ’s study the worm first,
The Purgatory Worm is the largest arm of the Inca swarm, and it also spits out lava and other attack methods. Although Lin called it lava, he has never been sure whether it is lava or not, but it may just be a high-temperature liquid.
And most importantly, what is the origin of the purgatory worm?The purgatory worms that Lin now sees have obviously been transformed countless times by the Inca swarm. The purgatory worms cannot be normal creatures. This kind of action is slow and large, and it is an extremely energy-consuming creature attacked by spraying high-temperature solutions Only suitable for living in the division of labor.
So Lin is very interested. What kind of creature was the Purgatory Worm originally?Was it stolen by the Inca swarm?Or evolved from the original Inca swarm?
Now, Lin is going to uncover the secret. When studying these complex and powerful creatures, Lin feels quite interesting.
First of all, Lin is most concerned about the body of the purgatory worm. The collector drilled down the body of the purgatory worm on the ground. Lin lit up and saw the same scene as Leviathan when he entered ...
The esophagus wall is polished and very long.
The collectors crawled inward, and the deeper they were, the narrower the surrounding passage became. Lin thought that the passage might penetrate the entire body of the worm. The part of the worm buried underground may exceed 30 meters, but the body in the underground It should not be as wide as the head outside, which is probably the reason why they are difficult to drill back. Lin even suspects that they have no ability to go back.
The collectors walked to the end of the passage, and Lin found that there was a small hole at the end, and the diameter was less than one meter, and there were many small particles on the inner wall, which looked like dust.
After the collectors drilled the hole in the tail of the worm, they found that the surrounding environment was an underground cave. This cave was obviously dug by the purgatory worm. The ”soil” around this cave had a strange smell.
There seems to be nothing special to discover.
Lin then asked the collector to start digging holes in the esophagus wall of the worm to see if it could be drilled to observe the internal organs and other structures. During the period, Lin intends to study the shell of the Purgatory Worm.
The collector collected a lot of the shell powder of the purgatory worm under the collapsed home tree. Lynn found that this is an extremely special kind of chitin, which is usually not produced by marine life and terrestrial life.
The ingredients inside are very special. This shell is strong and suitable for resisting pressure and high temperature, but it is not the highest in terms of hardness, but the shell of the purgatory worm is too thick, so it is difficult for general attacks to penetrate.
However, Lin still saw a creature that can make this kind of chitin.
That kind of creature lives under the sea water. Lynn hasn't seen it for a long time, but it is also a worm-type creature, usually found near the bottom of the lava vent.
These vents, Lin has a new word to describe: 'volcano'.
Through this, perhaps the origin of purgatory worms may not necessarily be traced.
Lin can get information by recalling her observations on the seabed ...
