Chapter 157

 The Flyer was still alive. To be precise, she was still alive.

When Lin was studying the glowing powder at the top of the cave, she was ambushed by a flying creature and was swallowed whole. Now, the Flyer was in the creature's esophagus.

Lin guessed that this was a large flying creature. It must be more than three meters tall and had a mouth big enough to swallow in one gulp.

This creature was quite powerful. Lin almost didn't sense its approach, which meant that it was very good at controlling its scent and gas flow. This wasn't easy for a flying creature. Now, the Flyer was squashed into a ball in the creature's esophagus. Her wings and limbs were crushed, and she was soaked in digestive fluid.

However, it wasn't hard to escape.

The creature's only mistake was that it didn't bite the Flyer to pieces and eat her. If she was bitten to pieces and then soaked in digestive fluid, Lin might not have had the chance to do this … But it was different now.

The fluid began to corrode the Flyer's outer shell. Lin quickly reorganized the cells inside the Flyer's body. Lin first formed some tough, corrosion-resistant shells, then stuffed the cells into these shells. Then, the cells in the shells combined to form some miniature multicellular creatures — — the Flyer.

At this time, the fluid had already corroded the Flyer's shell and began to dissolve the Flyer's internal structure.

At the same time, the shells were left outside with the fluid in the Flyer's body and fell on the creature's esophagus wall.

The shells were covered with spikes. These spikes pierced the esophagus wall. Through the small holes at the end of the spikes, Lin's team could enter the blood vessels in the esophagus wall.

As soon as Lin's cells entered … They were attacked by the immune cells. This creature probably always swallowed things alive. The immune cells were especially strong.

This was a group of white cells. They looked very fierce. They surrounded Lin and stuck to the Flyer's skin, releasing a large amount of dissolving fluid. The way they attacked was very old-fashioned …

'Crack!'

The Flyer flashed white, and all the immune cells around it died.

Ever since she learned how to discharge electricity, she felt that killing cells was really easy. Now, Lin had also added these miniature multicellular organisms with the ability to discharge electricity to protect the larger units from being invaded by microorganisms.

Lin noticed that a lot of single-celled organisms liked to crawl into the bodies of large-sized multicellular organisms. Inside a normal organism's body, even the weight of these foreign fungi would exceed the original weight of the organism's cells. Although not all of them were harmful, and most of them were beneficial, Lin still didn't allow any of them to crawl inside.

On the other hand, Lin had never seen a virus that was beneficial. They only killed cells and did not form a symbiotic relationship with the cells. Some viruses would even hide inside the cells for a period of time. But in the end, it still had to kill the cells, and even if they stayed in the cells. It's not good for the cells either.

Viruses seemed to exist to kill cells, but none of Lin's infected had ever been killed by the virus in their bodies. It was a strange feeling, but other than that, all the viruses Lin had encountered so far weren't anything good.

A large number of Impalers entered the creature's veins through the sphere that Lin created, then followed the veins and swam deeper. A creature's veins could be ridiculously long, but it wouldn't take them too long to circle around the creature's body, only a few dozen seconds to complete the circle.

'Seconds'?

This new word suddenly popped up in Lin's mind. It seemed to be used to describe a very short period of time, and it seemed to be somewhat useful.

One of the Impalers had reached the creature's heart, while the others continued to move forward. Following the nerve signals, they found the creature's brain.

The brain was a very interesting thing. It could determine a creature's behavior, but it couldn't determine the behavior of all the cells inside the creature's body.

The Impalers drilled through the creature's veins and rushed into the creature's brain. They began to devour all the brain cells there, absorbing them as nutrients and increasing their size.

There were also immune cells roaming inside the creature's brain, but unfortunately, they were no match for the Impalers that were constantly growing. Lin had never seen a creature that had a multicellular organism inside its body for immunity, they all used single-celled organisms for immunity.

Therefore, when faced with a multicellular invader, they were very weak. Of course, there were immune cells that could kill a few multicellular invaders, but they were definitely not Lin's invaders.

The Transmigrators devoured a large number of cells and gathered together inside the creature's brain. Lin had several Transmigrators gather together to form a small breeding pod, then continuously increased the number of Transmigrators while the other Transmigrators continued to feast on the creature's food.

At this time, Lin felt a violent tremor around her. The creature must have been flying in the air, but after Lin destroyed its brain, it lost control of its body and fell to the ground …

Lin didn't care about that, she continued to gnaw. She wanted to clean out the creature's brain before the other predators ate it.

The Impalers devoured a large number of the creature's brain cells, eventually nibbling away at the creature's brain. Then, Lin's group of Impalers grouped together, quickly fusing and transforming, finally forming a jellyfish-like creature with countless tentacles — the Brain Reader.

The Impalers were equipped with various structures required by the Brain Reader, such as electrical cells and tentacles, so it was easy to assemble them.

Next, the Brain Reader extended its tentacles to replace the creature's brain, connecting the tentacles to the creature's nerves, then began to absorb and release electricity to control the creature's overall behavior.

It was strange. Although the creature had just fallen, it did not suffer any major injuries. Perhaps it was originally in a very low position.

The Brain Reader slowly controlled the creature's movements. As it was the first time, Lin did not want to accidentally kill it with too much electricity. At the same time, Lin sent out more Impalers to follow the blood vessels to the eyeball. The Brain Reader could not receive and analyze images from other creatures' eyeballs because the signals were very complicated. So, Lin had the Impalers eat up the creature's eyeball, leaving only the outermost membrane. Then, she assembled her own eyeball from the inside.

When the eyeball was complete, Lin saw the outside world again.

The creature was in a small clearing in the forest, surrounded by tall ferns. Lin wanted to see what the creature's body looked like. Lin had the Brain Reader send out a signal, but she found that she could not turn her head. The creature could not see her at all! She was floating in the sky.
