Deep Space Evolution: Clans

Chapter 42 Desire for Land

With the departure of the blood-seeking whales and the merger of the Star Clan into the Yuan Clan, things on the Landbird Islands seemed to have settled down.

But that's not the case.

Blood-seeking whales are extremely vindictive beings. They will remember things that make them miserable, and they can often remember them for a long time.

Coupled with the blood-seeking whale's very keen sense organs, they will track those who make them weak in the ocean.

But with such a huge disparity in numbers, the blood-seeking whales knew that it was impossible for them to rely on the current numbers to find a place.

A low hum continued in the ocean.

"There are too many of them, we can't defeat them!"

"How did these reptiles become so powerful?"

"Maybe those weren't reptiles, they were nothing like reptiles."

"But the biggest guy must be a reptile fish! This must be a group of reptile fish."

"Then they must have evolved."

"I want to evolve too! I want to evolve too!"

"But how do we evolve?"

The blood-seeking whales are swimming in the sea, not knowing how their evolution should take place.

But at this moment, among them, there is already a guy who is beginning to evolve.

If Yuan saw it, he would definitely recognize this blood-seeking whale.

Because this guy is the blood-seeking whale that escaped from his claws before, and he is also the largest one in this group of blood-seeking whales.

This blood-seeking whale actually occupies a leadership position among the whales, but this leader is different from Yuan's leader.

This is the head whale of the pod.

He and Yuan's ethnic group leader are two different things.

But now, this guy will become the real leader of the blood-seeking whale group.

Waves of low moans came from his body.

"Remember their scent."

"Leave here and strengthen the clan."

"We need a larger group."

"We need to evolve."

In this way, the blood-seeking whales completely left the Land Bird Islands and headed for deeper waters.

······
Landbird Islands.

Lying on the shallow beach, Yuan felt the feeling of being out of the sea through his new breathing gills.

Still quite suffocating.

Yuan did not give up the idea of ​​​​landing. In fact, Yuan kept trying during this period.

He even evolved his entire respiratory system.

The respiratory gills absorb oxygen from seawater more rapidly, and at the same time, the structure between Yuan's mouth and respiratory gills becomes a supercharged structure.

When the Yuan is moving quickly, it can swallow seawater into the mouth and pressurize it out, thereby obtaining a large amount of oxygen in a short period of time, thereby enhancing the Yuan's ability to move.

However, Yuan's respiratory system has been unable to breathe since leaving the ocean.

So this is undoubtedly a considerable obstacle to Yuan's landing.

Although Yuan also tried it, when he surfaced and stopped breathing, his body would feel suffocated about 3 minutes later.

It's just that these 3 minutes are the time when Yuan Yi is motionless.

If you exercise, you can't even guarantee one minute.

For Yuan, the matter of landing was originally far away.It may not be possible until the glider can escape the ocean.

However, things took a turn for the worse when the blood-seeking whale was swallowed by Yuan.

Yuan found that the respiratory system of the blood-seeking whale was very different from theirs. First of all, the blood-seeking whale did not have respiratory gills. This was a problem that Yuan discovered when he was eating the blood-seeking whale.Without respiratory gills, how does a blood-seeking whale breathe?

stomata.

Blood-seeking whales can breathe gases in the air directly, then import the oxygen in the air into their lungs for storage through respiration, and then dive into the ocean for long-term actions.

Although blood-seeking whales have very similar lungs to mudfish, they are actually not the same.

One is a true lung and the other is a lung combined with respiratory gills.

The lungs of the mud fish can actually be understood as the swim bladder.

It's just that this swim bladder can play some of the same functions as lungs, allowing mudfish to stay in the seabed mud with almost no oxygen for a long time.

It seems that Yuan can actually leave the ocean by evolving the lung structure of the mud fish, but leaving the ocean in this way will be short-lived after all, and Yuan does not want this to be the case.

This kind of incomplete evolution requires Yuan to spend an excessive amount of evolutionary capital to evolve this structure, and then when he encounters a more suitable structure, he has to risk another transplant. Isn't this a loss that outweighs the gain?

So after getting the truly perfect lung organ, Yuan thought about whether he could evolve his swim bladder into lungs.

After all, if he had a lung to help him breathe, Yuan felt that his ability to move in the ocean would be greatly enhanced.

What Yuan Yuan thought was actually divided into two steps.

The first is to transplant the lungs of the blood-seeking whale, and then the method of transplanting the connection between the breathing gills and the lungs of the mudfish.

In this way, Yuan has a complete lung that can be connected to the respiratory gills.

Later, if you want to evolve the ability to breathe air directly, it will be much more convenient.

Yuan did not think carefully about the risks of lung transplantation.

And is logging in a relatively necessary thing for Yuan?
Is there anything he can do on land?
Ever since, there is the current picture.

Yuan lay on the shallow beach, looking at the island in front of him, feeling as if he was suffocating in the air.

He was thinking about landing.

"Want to try?"

With no oxygen intake, he simply relied on holding his "breath" to walk on this strange land.

Yuan gave up the idea because it was not safe.

Land was still too unfamiliar to him.

Just the thought of logging in was a temptation that lingered for Yuan.

After all, the word "land" had been heard from blood relatives as early as the first time Yuan woke up.

Through this period of experience, Yuan clearly understood that the structure of his blood relatives was not sufficient to carry out activities on land.

So why do groups choose land as their destination?
Yuan crawled on the beach and returned to the ocean before his suffocation reached its peak.

"land."

Yuan looked at the green island in front of him, and he kept looking at it for an unknown amount of time.

A cry that I had never heard before sounded in the dense vegetation.

It was a creature that Yuan had never seen before.

At this moment, Yuan suddenly thought.

"If I don't go on land now, will I be able to hear this species again?"

Therefore, Yuan decided to transplant the lungs of the blood-seeking whale.

He immediately started evolving through the evolution catalog.

The swim bladder gradually shrank, and the reopened swim bladder had become the shape of a blood-seeking whale's lungs.

However, Yuan previously thought that he would have difficulty breathing during the period when his lungs were growing and his swim bladder was missing.

But in fact, Yuan found himself sinking to the bottom.

Without the swim bladder, he couldn't float.
