Chapter 264

A rock? Lin looked at the sky. There was a large group of flying creatures in the sky. These creatures were similar to wyverns. Their forelimbs had wide wing membranes, but their mouths were long and pointed, and their hind limbs were short. This creature seemed to be a type of creature called a pterosaur.

Pterosaurs were very small. Their wingspan was only about 50 centimeters. The rock just now seemed to have fallen from their wings.

There were many creatures that would use common objects to build their nests, but very few would use them to attack other creatures. In fact, Lin had only seen the ancient squid do something similar, so she felt the need to pay attention to it.

It seemed that this group of pterosaurs was not the kind of creature that would throw rocks … It seemed that their brains were not big.

Just as Lin was thinking this, they suddenly screamed and rushed down. Their eyes were all fixed on one target — the young wyvern in the Leviathan's tentacles.

Seeing this, the Leviathan completely wrapped the young wyvern with its tentacles. The group of pterosaurs seemed to have no regard for their lives. They rushed to the Leviathan's tentacles and used their long sharp mouths to poke the tentacles crazily. It seemed that they were determined to catch the young wyvern.

These creatures … felt a little strange.

The Leviathan did not move. The pterosaurs did not have teeth, so they did not feel anything when poked. Lin wanted to see how long they would last before giving up.

At the same time, Lin ordered the troops outside to start moving here. It was necessary to build a base here. The headworm also wanted to take a look here.

The headworm brought its own 'queen' here. It had always wanted to find a place with a good environment like this to build its colony.

The pterosaurs' attack lasted for a while. They slowly started to get tired. They gave up attacking and flew back to the sky. The Leviathan stretched out its tentacles and caught the last pterosaur as they escaped. The other pterosaurs had no intention of saving it. They scattered in the sky and soon disappeared without a trace.

Lin tore apart the pterosaur that she caught and dissected it.

This creature was indeed very similar to Lin's prediction.

The pterosaur might have evolved from a flying lizard. It had many similarities with the flying lizards in the Twisted Jungle, but the pterosaur had evolved to a higher level. Its body had a structure that maintained its body temperature. Normally, reptiles did not have such a structure.

However, this creature's brain was indeed very small. Compared to the flying lizards, there was not much improvement. Looking at their abnormal behavior, Lin felt that they might have been influenced by something.

… What kind of effect would it have?

"Ga!"

At this moment, the little wyvern cried out again. Leviathan released its tentacles and placed the little creature on the grass. Lin wanted to see if it would find its own nest, but it did not move. Instead, it kept crying out. Its cries attracted the attention of the other creatures around the lake.

Lin wanted to see them mature. His main purpose was to study the wyvern, but it seemed like it wouldn't go back on its own. Instead, it only knew how to bark. This was a little troublesome.

Leviathan threw a small piece of pterosaur meat to it, and the little creature caught it and ate it.

Maybe he could feed it until it grew up?

The young wyvern didn't utter a word after eating its fill. Leviathan picked it up again and hovered it in the air, inspecting the scenery by the lake.

Looking at a tree about 10 meters tall by the lakeside, Lin began to study the plants here. This tree looked fat and thick, but it grew very straight. It had many branches and leaves, but they were very small. Let's call it a 'Fat Tree', but … what was that?

Lynn saw a large stone that seemed to be hanging from a branch.

Why was the stone there?

Normally, Lin would not pay attention to normal things, but when normal things appeared in abnormal places, she would notice it.

When Leviathan approached the tree, a 'ka' sound suddenly came from the tree. The big rock suddenly fell down and hit Leviathan's head.

Under the collision of the carapace and the stone, the stone first split in half. The Leviathan stretched out its tentacles and held the stone in front of its eyes to take a closer look. At the same time, it looked at the tree. There was something like a string there. It seemed that the string had hooked onto the stone, and then for some reason, the string broke and the stone fell down.

This was very suspicious.

Leviathan looked around. The vast plain was calm. There was nothing but a few trees … It seemed to be well-hidden.

However, the Leviathan suddenly fired a bomb at a patch of grass about ten meters away. Following the explosion of the bomb, a creature on the grass screamed and jumped up.

This creature was covered in grass, and it seemed to have used some method to stick the grass to its body. It looked like a small reptile, and it stood about 1.5 meters tall on its hind legs. Its back was now injured by the bomb, and blood was constantly flowing out.

But it didn't run away. Instead, it looked at Leviathan. Lin thought it was not sure where Leviathan's eyes were, so it stared at its head.

Leviathan's response was to fire another bomb at it.

The creature screamed and quickly jumped back to avoid the bomb. Then, it turned and ran away.

It was actually able to dodge the attack. It seemed like this creature had high intelligence and was very good at using its surroundings. So far, Lin had only seen a few creatures that could do this. Generally, only the more intelligent reptiles would do this. Arthropods would never do this.

Leviathan didn't chase it. Instead, it shot a small needle on its tail to locate it. This way, it would be easier to find its nest.

Speaking of which, it should have used this method on the wyvern instead of chasing it. If it kept chasing, the wyvern wouldn't go back to its nest. Instead, it would try to get rid of Leviathan.

This creature should be named 'Mystic Dragon'. Lin hadn't found any connection between it and the stone on the tree, but it was the most suspicious creature in the vicinity.

Well, it would be more interesting to investigate it slowly.

Now that the young wyvern had fallen into a deep sleep in the Leviathan's tentacle, Lin used the tentacle to swallow it and placed it in a sac inside the Leviathan's body. This sac could provide oxygen, and she continued her journey of exploration.

Lin's troops were coming this way, but because it was hundreds of kilometers away, they were not that fast. At the same time, Lin continued to transform the surface of the Coastal Barren Land. She mainly crushed the seabed mud and bones buried in the desert and spread them on the ground. Then, she sprinkled a large number of seeds to see if she could restore the land that was once destroyed by the fungus.

But what if the fungus floated back and infected? Or was there still some undead fungus on this land? In fact, Lin had many new methods to deal with them, methods that were more effective than fire …

In fact, when Lin first saw the fungus, she had already thought of many methods to deal with it. The reason she chose fire was mainly because … it was more 'artistic'. Watching the fungus spread and burn felt quite interesting.

However, that was where the fun ended. Lin wanted to completely destroy this group of fungus. In order to prevent them from infecting these places, Lin decided to let Bechymos and most of the Bombers leave the mainland to search for these fungus islands and get rid of them.

The Pioneers and Lin's newly built base and troops continued to build an environment on the Barren Land.

Now, Leviathan was slowly floating in the air. Lin had a few places she wanted to go, such as the mountain in the distance that was constantly emitting smoke.

This mountain seemed to give off a … dangerous feeling. It might be an area like a volcano.

Leviathan slowly floated forward on the plain. There were many creatures on this plain. A group of emerald green creatures was playing with each other. Lin noticed that many of them liked to stand on their hind legs. Although they were not large in size, this method of evolution had taken a long time. Now, what Lin wanted to know the most was what caused them to be separated from other creatures and evolve in advance.

Reptiles had actually appeared very early. As long as there were no large arthropods, they should have evolved very quickly. But the question was, when did large arthropods disappear from this place?

Among the reptiles, there were a lot of creatures that lived in groups. However, there weren't any creatures that lived in groups. The evolution of these creatures was very different. Zhao Hai wondered if there would be a powerful creature like the one in the Northern Continent.

Leviathan was now close to the jungle. On the edge of the jungle, there were ten huge Dome Dragons eating leaves. These trees growing on the edge of the jungle were like large ferns, about five meters tall. Their bark looked like scales, and they looked very hard. The leaves on the trees were sharp and long like long needles, but the Dome Dragons ate them effortlessly.

This scene was very special. In the Twisted Jungle, there were quite few creatures that ate twisted trees. Almost all large arthropods were predators that ate meat, but reptiles that grew bigger actually preferred to eat plants?

When they saw Leviathan slowly landing in the air, each of them began to roar. They seemed to have a particularly fierce character, but Lin ignored them. Leviathan flew into the jungle.

The jungle was filled with the sounds of all kinds of creatures, including arthropods and reptiles. The whole jungle was filled with a clear smell. The oxygen here was very rich. Although it was not enough to maintain the size of large arthropods, it might be the reason why reptiles had grown bigger.

There were many kinds of plants in the jungle. They all looked like giant ferns, but none of them were as crooked as the twisted trees. They were all straight. Now, in front of Leviathan was a thick tree, but this tree was a little strange. It looked like …

Slap!

Suddenly, the whole tree cracked from the middle, and countless small needles shot out from the crack toward Leviathan. Floating astronomy.
