Mysterious creature sightings

However, Lin Zheng just stared at it for a while, without expressing his question with the answer, nor did he say the name.

He discussed with Lin Jia and the others and decided to take some simple protective measures first and go to investigate. This trip was not easy, and he had to at least bring back more useful information.

They did not approach the waterhole rashly. After setting up the instruments, they threw rocks and found animal carcasses at the door of the "Electromagnetic Pulse Dragon" house to try.

The other party made no move.

Another offence, but still no movement.

Xu Jiayan boldly pushed the instrument forward and found that the electromagnetic pulse still existed, but the threat range was greatly reduced, almost controlled to a distance just short of seeing the situation in the clear water pool.

It was too accurate. It wasn't that I didn't trust the degree of biological evolution, but that it looked too much like traces of human interference. They were silent for a while, and Lin Zheng threw the detector into the pool.

The detection mirror returned data, and the initially rising curve in the instrument quickly declined, and finally almost calmed down. Although it was still higher than the electromagnetic pulse intensity in the normal natural environment, it was no longer within the scope of affecting living organisms and required research.

Lin Jia: "...Can she still communicate with living organisms? The things in the water seem to have been threatened by her."

Without mentioning the specific name, just using "she" can make them subconsciously glance at Lin Zheng's expression.

Jiang Yuxing wanted to laugh, but he didn't dare. He held it in and coughed and said, "I'll use the sonic detector to see if that thing didn't emit an electromagnetic pulse or ran away."

Xu Jiayan: "That's my job."

Jiang Yuxing: "Together."

The two of them ran to one side, and Lin Jia followed slowly with her arms folded, leaving Lin Zheng standing there alone with an expressionless face.

"There is indeed a cavity underground," Xu Jiayan checked the space under the pool. "It seems to be extending in all directions. It is very far away and very deep. There is still space under the maximum depth that sound waves can detect."

Lin Jia: "Is there anything we are looking for?"

Xu Jiayan: "There are living organisms, but not many. They all look like normal fish, with no horns on their heads and no claws."

Jiang Yuxing glanced at Lin Zheng who was walking up, and guessed: "Maybe she let that thing sink before it came out. In fact, we didn't have to contain it, and there was no murder case. It just happened that the sun was very strong these two days. , the clouds and air layers became stable again, forming a 'projection curtain', which just projected this place from a high place into the sky. It's such a coincidence that it may never appear again in the future."

"Besides, Shennongjia strictly controls the entry and exit of ordinary people. As long as no one stays here for a long time, nothing will happen."

Xu Jiayan also said: "There are countless mysterious creatures in Shennongjia. The ancient creatures that have survived from ancient times, the mutant species that have mutated in geological radiation, and the special species that have resulted from inbreeding and cross-breeding. Most of them have been affected by their own reproduction problems and the environment. The problem of change has been dragged to the point of extinction, without even a chance to be discovered. In the past few decades, the scientific expedition teams that came in almost never encountered second sightings in a short period of time, let alone investigated them clearly in one go. "

Lin Zheng raised his eyelids and looked at them: "I look like the director of a perverted asylum who kills all living things?"

Lin Jia shrugged beside him: "It looks quite similar now."

Lin Zheng glanced at her lightly and said to Jiang Yuxing: "Extend the detection time and close the team if no detection is found after half an hour. During this period, try to improve the biological portrait to facilitate case recording."

Half an hour later, they returned defeated.

The thing with the horns on its head didn't appear for half an hour. I don't know how deep it sank.

Like an obedient child who was warned not to go out to play in case he was abducted by human traffickers. Jiang Yuxing showed the data results to Lin Zheng speechlessly. Although he didn't say anything, his eyes brightly read, "Look, look, look at the good things your girlfriend has done."

Lin Zheng glanced at it and asked Xu Jiayan: "Where are the biological portraits?"

Xu Jiayan: "I used simulation software to test it. When the sun first rose, the light from the cloud gaps illuminated the surface of the exposed mountains and pools. After a very coincidental combination of various optical effects, it was finally projected onto the stable air layer."

"According to the picture projected on the object's shadow, after a slight change in angle, it is estimated that the thing should have two horns on its head, a relatively large head, a flat body compared to the head, four short vestigial legs, and a tail similar to a spear tail. Fish, no forks.”

Lin Zheng: "The currently known aquatic animals with horns on their heads mainly include narwhals, axolotls, and hornfish. They have two horns, and the projection looks like a dragon. It may be more like an axolotl."

He did not rule out marine life. After all, the Shennongjia area evolved from the ocean into land.

Although axolotls are endemic to Mexico, the creatures they investigate focus on the idea that everything is unexpected and everything is possible. And the axolotl, commonly known as the hexagonal dinosaur, does look a lot like the legendary dragon.

Xu Jiayan thought for a while: "The axolotl has a flat head, a long tail, and it does have four short legs. Its colors are dreamy and changeable. The possibility of becoming an albino is much higher than other creatures. It is indeed possible."

Lin Jia continued: "But it cannot be the original axolotl. It can only be said that the probability of it belonging to the axolotl is very high."

Lin Zheng nodded: "Salamanders have existed since 200 million years ago. They have long lifespans and can regenerate. Some populations can remain juvenile for life, and they can also graft severed limbs like plants. They are indeed very suitable for mutation and evolution of electromagnetic pulse-specific cells. .”

Salamanders have been studied for more than two hundred years, and they still provide inspiration for skin burn recovery and cancer prevention. If there is any creature that is best suited to survive the cruel process of evolution and mutation, it must be this strange species that can regenerate.

"Just salamanders," Lin Jia sighed. "Humans are not the only species on the earth. Let's give these mysterious creatures who don't want to see us some privacy, and also give us our own lives. They can get rid of us after puberty. , there is no need to come to seek death."

Lin Zheng was quiet for a moment, nodded and said, "Close the team."

Finally able to leave the terrifying "electromagnetic pulse generator", Jiang Yuxing breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, the accidental serious illness insurance would really come into play.

However, it is still early for the crisis to be resolved, and the road out of Shennongjia is also dangerous.

As the captain, Lin Zheng was still walking at the front. Snakes, insects, rats, and ants passed by in groups, and you could hear the popping sound of beeping, popping, and popping whenever you stepped on it.

Walking to the foot of the mountain was even more terrifying. Mountain vipers that were similar in color to the rocks and soil were hard to guard against. They were harassed by xxl-sized Cryptoptera bugs so that they could only bend their backs and tilt their heads to hide. Corrosive acid was released when they were hit... Fortunately, they had experience, and The sonic device opened the way, avoiding danger along the way.

But there was a problem with the sonic device attacking in advance to clear the way - an albino monkey on the roadside was affected and let out a sharp scream.

Jiang Yuxing gasped on the spot: "It's over, I've provoked the most vindictive creature."

Sure enough, within a few minutes, a group of monkeys surrounded them.

Lin Zheng's expression was solemn, and he held the gun behind his waist with his hand, but he didn't know what he was thinking when he lowered his eyes and let go of the gun.

"I'm guarding you from the side. Lin Jia, you hit something to make a sound. They are afraid of the harsh sound. Jiang Yuxing and Xu Jiayan, you continue to use the sonicator to open the way. Ultrasonic waves can control the activity of specific brain neurons in rodents."

There is also a chapter with a finale. I don’t know if I can finish it before midnight. If I can finish it, I’ll post it. If I can’t finish it, I’ll see you during the day~
