I'm trapped in a block

Chapter 619: Feathers in the Water
"They are flying in the direction of the sea. If they can swim and enter through the hole on the seabed, we will be in a dilemma. Let's go quickly, just in case."

"it is good."

Mo Ling also realized the urgency of the situation. The battle situation was changing every moment. Without hesitation, he immediately flew towards the depths of the cave.

Soon, Mo Ling found the patriarch and told him the concerns of the survivors.

The patriarch also attached great importance to this and immediately asked Mo Ling and some ear flies to go to the underwater cave below.

After passing through the winding cave passages, the ear flies soon arrived at the part of the cave that was flooded by sea water.

Ear flies can't swim, so the best they can do is stay here.

The sea water kept rising and falling, hitting the rock walls, and there was silence all around. This was the deepest part of the cave, and the sounds of fighting in the distance could no longer be heard.

"I don't seem to hear the sound of the predatory birds flapping their wings. Are they really flying over here?"

"I remember that the depths of the seabed holes were very deep. Would the raptors really dive that deep just to get in? Are their IQs that high?"

All the ear flies present were a little skeptical, but no one dared to relax and were listening carefully to the sounds under the sea.

"Gulu...Gulu..."

From time to time, some bubbles jump out of the sea surface. There are all kinds of noises in the sea water. The ups and downs of the sea water will also cause strange noises in the cave.

At this time, the ear flies could not hear what was happening in the deep sea.

Mo Ling leaned quietly against the rock wall, listening carefully.

The water rushed through the holes, making a dull lapping sound... The fish turned and tapped the water, the shells opened and closed, constantly colliding... The eroded rock fell off a loose fragment, drifting all over the rock wall along the ups and downs of the water.

"Click, click..."

Mo Ling's thoughts seemed to follow the direction of the sound and went deeper.

He was completely immersed in the never-ending sound.

Sound comes from vibration, and the vibrations of all things are interconnected. The vibrations of the rock wall come from the vibrations of the sea water, and the vibrations of the sea water come from the things in the sea water. When these vibrations are stripped out one by one and analyzed, their specific states will be exposed.

A concrete world appeared in Mo Ling's mind.

This is the sound world made up of everything he hears.

Noisy, but extremely regular.

At this moment, Mo Ling understood what the survivor had said to him.

"The world is noisy."

In other words, noise and bustle make up the world. The world cannot be described by a single sound. The random vibration of all things, the blooming of a hundred flowers and the contention of a hundred schools of thought are the foundation of building the world.

Just then, Mo Ling noticed a strange sound.

This was completely different from any sound he had ever heard. It was a very strange sound of flowing water, extremely hidden, like a ball of light feather floating in the sea water. Not only that, the sound was very close to the water surface.

"Oh no! That's a bird of prey."

Mo Ling's heart immediately became nervous.

"They are coming, right down there!" he immediately reminded his companions.

However, before his companions could react, a ball of feathers floated on the water. The water flowed over the surface of the feathers but did not wet them at all. It seemed that the feathers were covered with a layer of strange oil that prevented water from entering.

After emerging from the water, the feathers began to tremble.

The huge wings suddenly spread open, and the sound of the wings flapping scared the ear flies present so much that they were stunned for a moment.

"It's a predatory bird, imitate its chirping!"

The mournful cries of birds spread along the cave toward the water surface.

However, after hearing the bird's cry, the huge bird of prey did not react at all. It just flapped its wings and flew directly upwards.

"What's going on? The bird song is ineffective?" "No! It's not that the bird song is ineffective, it's that it can't hear the bird song at all!"

The echoes of the ear flies echoed in the cave, and they noticed belatedly that the predatory bird that emerged from the water seemed to be completely deaf.

A few more feathers floated up from the water, and a few birds of prey spread their wings and flew upwards.

The ear flies made sounds again in disbelief, but these predatory birds did not respond to the birdsong at all, just like the first one.

"Have they seen through our imitation?" The ear flies suddenly panicked. The birdsong of predatory birds is the only thing they can rely on. Once the birdsong is ineffective, they will become fish on the chopping board.

The birds of prey drilled through the narrow cave passage and immediately found the hiding place of the ear flies. At the same time, many feathers floated on the sea surface. It seemed that the birds of prey had determined the location of the underwater cave entrance and were now swarming in.

"Run!"

"We can't run, we have to stop them!"

“They can’t hear the birds singing, so how do you stop them?”

While the ear flies were arguing, the first predatory bird swooped down, crushing the rock wall with its sharp beak and swallowing the ear flies hiding in it.

Birds of prey will not wait for their prey to come to a conclusion; they are very efficient hunters and will start hunting immediately.

"Run! Run!" Some ear flies were so scared that they fled out of the crevices.

However, these escaping ear flies became targets. Several predatory birds behind them swarmed over and directly swallowed up these snacks that were delivered to their doorsteps.

The remaining ear flies no longer dared to act rashly. If they wanted to escape, they had to return to the spacious main passage. However, they could not escape those ferocious predatory birds in the main passage. They could only move in the narrow rock walls and find ways to get into other passages.

Mo Ling was completely stunned, his mind full of doubts.

“Why does bird song fail?”

"Why don't these birds of prey react to the sound?"

Suppressing the fear in his heart, Mo Ling hid in the crevice of the rocks and listened carefully. He wanted to find out why these predatory birds were immune to bird calls.

Flapping their wings frantically, this group of predatory birds seemed unusually agitated.

"Is it because it hovered in the air for too long?"

It seems not. They keep shaking their heads and scratching their heads with their claws. They don't care even if blood is flowing from their scratches.

Not only that, Mo Ling also noticed that the bodies of this group of predatory birds were a little shaky, and sometimes their movements would even suddenly freeze.

"What are they doing?"

This group of predatory birds seemed to be suffering from some kind of pain, which made them extremely irritable.

At this time, they seemed to be killing ear flies and destroying the rock walls just to relieve their own pain...

"What is the reason?"

Mo Ling kept searching in the noisy sound, and the vibrations around him gradually formed a concrete picture in his mind:
A bird of prey shaking its head.

Blood on both sides of the head.

A somewhat shaky body.

The claws that keep scratching...

"The place where the sharp claws grabbed... is the ear hole of the raptor!"

"Are they deliberately destroying their hearing?" Mo Ling couldn't believe it.

"Could it be that they have figured out the attacking methods of the ear flies and found ways to deal with them? Are they really that smart?"

"No! That's not right." Mo Ling immediately thought of the way they entered the cave, and suddenly he realized it.

"It's the water pressure that destroyed their hearing!"
