The tentacles of the Seed of Bases were capable of sensing all sorts of changes, including sea tremors, faults, lava eruptions, and ice formations. Lin had already grasped the pattern of these phenomena, they would always produce some sort of subtle fluctuation in the water ahead of time, and Lin's tentacles were specifically made to sense these fluctuations. Even when Lin was asleep, this ability was constantly evolving and perfecting itself, allowing the tentacles to sense these fluctuations in greater detail, to the point where they could sense them years in advance.
A subtle tremor was felt when Lin's Seed of Bases came into contact with the mud and sand at the bottom of the lake. It was a very strange sensation, one that Lin had never felt before, but she could calculate the effects of this tremor in the future.
According to Lin's 100 million years of environmental records, this small tremor would suddenly become larger after a year or so. This wasn't just a normal tremor, it would also cause a large area to shift.
Wait a minute … this wasn't the sea, this lake was located deep within the land, about a few kilometers away from the sea, which meant … this tremor was affecting the land? If the land began to shift, how would it affect the sea?
This was something that had never happened in the past 100 million years. As far as she could remember, the land would indeed move in a very slow manner, but this sudden change had never happened before …
Why? Lin didn't know, this was something that no other environmental change in the past could compare to. If such a large piece of land were to shift towards the sea, it might lead to a large-scale destruction, so she had to be prepared.
Other creatures also had this kind of calculation and prediction ability, but they would usually only react within 7 to 30 days, unlike Lin who could predict a year in advance. Otherwise, the helmeted fishes wouldn't have been able to lay their eggs here in peace.
The Seed of Bases was left here to observe the situation. At the same time, Lin also had to check the location of the main base. Although it was quite far from here, a tremor of this scale would definitely affect it.
Lin first had the Leviathan leave the lake and follow the previous path back to the river to swim back to the sea.
The main base's current location was originally exposed on the surface of the water, but due to the rising water level, it had returned to the sea. Just like the other bases, the main base's current location was now covered in a green carpet, but the organs stuffed inside the boulder at the center were still there. Lin had the Leviathan create a probing orb and swam towards the nearest land.
The probing orb reached the nearby land as quickly as it could, and when it got close to the rocky surface of the land, Lin felt the exact same tremor.
Would the same tremor happen here as well?
The land could possibly move hundreds of kilometers towards the sea. If that happened, the green blanket that Lin had covered this place with would be completely destroyed, causing a devastating disaster to the creatures here.
He had to leave within a year.
Lin didn't have a good way to stop the environment from changing, so she could only escape.
As soon as she thought of it, Lin began to let the green carpet self-decompose. Aside from the nutrients that these cells had obtained over the years to maintain their normal growth, the excess was usually stored in some high-hardness small spheres inside the green carpet to prevent other organisms from eating them.
Lin created a unit similar to a Devourer to collect these spheres and the self-decomposing photosynthetic cells. At the same time, another unit was responsible for dissolving the outer shell of the green carpet and reassembling them to create a gigantic transporter that carried all the nutrients.
These transporters were mobile, capable of transporting all the nutrients Lin had collected without leaving a single bit behind.
The green carpet's current range was simply too vast. Without taking any sudden changes into consideration, Lin estimated that these things could be completed within a year's time, but it was very likely that various unexpected events would occur during this time.
No matter what, all she needed to do was to try her best and collect all the green carpets within a year.
At this point, the Leviathan that had jumped into the river was returning to the sea as quickly as possible. Lin didn't need the Leviathan to return to the main base, instead, she needed it to travel further into the sea to find a safe area where Lin could continue to cover the green carpet.
This had to be completed within a year's time …
The Leviathan swam towards the depths of the sea. Lin had never been to these parts of the sea before. The area covered by the green carpet was basically the shallow part of the sea close to the land, and any further in, the bottom of the sea would be completely dark.
Perhaps … she could create a floating green carpet to cover the surface of the sea? After all, the ultraviolet light wasn't that strong anymore.
However … the phenomenon of freezing usually only occurred on the surface of the water, where it was very easy to freeze to death. Photosynthetic cells were specialized to absorb a large amount of light, so their resistance to cold was relatively low.
However, she really had to stay away from land.
The Leviathan swam close to the surface of the sea. The seabed was no longer visible below, only darkness. This place should already be considered part of the deep sea. Not far ahead, a large layer of ice could be seen on the surface of the sea.
Ice … always felt very troublesome.
The Leviathan swam close to the ice. Lin found that the ice was extremely thick. She didn't know how long it had been there, but it probably wouldn't melt in a year's time. She had to go around it and find another place.
The Leviathan swam along the edge of the ice. Lin found that the area of the ice was quite large, and it seemed very difficult to go around it.
In that case, she would swim to the bottom of the ice and see if she could pass through it.
Just as Lin was thinking this, she suddenly saw a creature slowly floating over from the air …
This creature looked very much like a jellyfish. It had an oval-shaped body of about two meters in length, and some small tentacles that were only one meter in length. However, it was floating in the air above the water!
Floating? In a place where there is no water?
Could it be that it could move in the air?
At this moment, Lin had an idea. She had to catch this' Levitating Jellyfish 'and dissect it! She had to see how it was done!
The Leviathan aimed the opening on its head at the Levitating Jellyfish, and then suddenly shot an explosive bomb.
Although the Levitating Jellyfish didn't have eyes, it seemed to be able to sense the attack. It immediately rose into the air and dodged the bomb.
It was much smarter than the average Jellyfish, so she decided to use this.
The Leviathan had a new type of soldier called the 'Vanguard'. The Vanguard had a streamlined body with a long cone in the front. It could spray water and charge at an extremely fast speed in the water, and could even jump several meters out of the water.
While the Jellyfish was still floating slowly, Lin quickly created the Vanguard, and then let it dive to a certain depth before suddenly rushing up!
The Vanguard's spray system worked quickly, and this allowed it to rush out of the water in an instant. Before the Jellyfish could react, the Vanguard had pierced through its sac-like body.
Very good … Eh?
When the Vanguard pierced through the Jellyfish, a large amount of air suddenly sprayed out from the wound. This not only blew away the Vanguard that was stuck in the wound, but also caused the Jellyfish to fly away with the force of the air. In a moment, it disappeared without a trace.
… At this speed, the Leviathan couldn't possibly catch up with it.
What a pity. She didn't expect it to be empty. It seemed that it was filled with some kind of gas that allowed it to float in the air.
Although she didn't succeed in catching it and decomposing it, Lin had basically figured out the internal structure of the Jellyfish. Unfortunately, she didn't have any help now. Lin didn't know what kind of gas was in the Jellyfish's body.
Now the Leviathan had more important things to do. It had to go through the ice and find a suitable place. However, it didn't know how long it would take to go around the ice, so it had to see if it could go through it.
The Leviathan dived under the ice, and the surrounding light became dimmer. There were many starfish gathered here in large numbers.
They were all stuck under the ice, moving on the ice with their bodies turned around. In the past 100 million years, the starfish's appearance didn't seem to have changed much except that they had become colorful. However, there were some exceptions, but there didn't seem to be any of them here.
Just as Lin was thinking about this, suddenly a huge star-shaped ice crystal fell from the ice and instantly covered the Leviathan's body.
… What is this? Ice? No …
