Qin Shiou was afraid that taking this strange creature out of the water would lead to death, so he input some Poseidon energy into this one.
The little creature in his hand had a dark gray black body surface, but after absorbing the energy of Poseidon, the skin suddenly lit up slowly, and finally turned into the same dark red as some of his kind.
The discovery surprised him. What's going on? This little thing is really weird.
After swimming out of the sea, Qin Shiou spit out the oxygen pipe in his mouth and shouted to shak who put a net on the ship not far away: "Lao Sha, come here, I have something here. Look what it is."
Before the net was finished, Shaq couldn't sail over, so he drove a motorboat hanging beside the boat and rushed there. But when he came to Qin Shiou and saw the strange little life, he showed the same blank expression on his face and said, "what is this? I don't seem to have seen it. Is it a mutant? "
Indeed, the little thing in Qin Shiou's hand looks a little sci-fi, which is easy for people to think about other aspects.
However, he thought he'd better ask Professor Sanders. For example, shack and fishermen can't recognize the light bulb sea squirt. Professor Sanders knows what it is without looking at the photos.
This time, after Qin Shiou called, Sanders was overjoyed after listening to his description and shouted, "Hey, this is not a mutant creature. When I get there, you catch these little guys? What good luck! "
The old professor was also hot. He was still in Toronto. He said to start and left a word and hung up the phone, which stunned Qin Shiou: the old professor didn't tell him what it was!
Fortunately, Sanders was not old and confused. Then he called again and said, "sorry, Qin, I was too anxious. I just wanted to book a ticket and hung up your phone. Well, let me introduce you. The thing in your hand is called vampire octopus. Its scientific name is ghost octopus. By the way, is it still alive? "
Qin Shiou looked at the strange guy in his hand and said, "live, but it doesn't seem to live very well."
After hearing this, the old professor became nervous and said, "be careful, Qin, you must be careful and hurry to it - damn it, I don't know what to do. You don't have a pressure pump in your hand. This is a deep-sea creature. It will die soon if it appears in the shallow sea!"
Qin Shiou quickly input Poseidon energy to the little creature. At the same time, several under the water also input Poseidon energy to supply their vitality, and then said, "don't worry, they don't seem to have a problem, they just don't live very comfortably, and they don't seem to die..."
"They? Not it? Oh, my God, how many vampire Octopus do you have? " The old professor asked excitedly.
Qin Shiou said, "now I have found six. I don't know how many are still in the water. That Professor, can you tell me what this is first? Are they precious? Why are you so excited? "
The old professor's voice rose again: "of course I'm excited. Of course I'm excited. This is a living fossil in the ocean! They may have lived on earth for tens of millions of years. They are in the same era as dinosaurs! And their living bodies are difficult to see, because they live in a deep water area of one kilometer to four thousand meters. They are so small and so few in number. It's too difficult to meet them! "
Qin Shiou shrugged and put the little thing into the water. Anyway, he has been controlled by him. He is not afraid of them running away. Let them survive in the water first.
Although Sanders said vampire Octopus lived in deep water, he felt that these guys seemed to live in shallow water.
Sanders then explained to him that vampire squid appeared at least 80 million years ago, maybe even longer. They were the ancestors of squid and octopus, and originally lived in shallow water. But at that time, they had a natural enemy called plesiosaur. Squid without hard shell protection could easily become the food of plesiosaur. In order to avoid the hunting of natural enemies, they had to move to the deep sea.
There is a phenomenon of returning to ancient times in creatures. Maybe this phenomenon appears in these vampire octopus, so they can appear offshore without dying. Of course, it's just speculation. Sanders said he had to study it to determine what was going on.
Qin Shiou asked strangely, "but I think, Professor, these guys have no research value? Why are you so excited? Because their living bodies are rare? "
Professor Sanders smiled and said, "of course not. Qin, I'm excited for you. Remember the black cover giant you gave me? I have been doing research on black lid giant insects. They seem to have a mysterious connection with vampire squid. I analyzed the composition of black lid giant insects' crustaceans, and then compared them in the database. I found that they are similar to the composition of teeth on vampire squid tentacles! "
"Also, you don't know that vampire squid has left a suspense for marine biology and advanced chemistry, that is, why did they survive for so long without any evolution? I think their tooth composition and the crustacean composition of black lid giant may be able to answer! "
Qin Shiou was excited when he heard that this little thing was related to the black lid giant. He knows the secret of black lid giant, which can delay biological metabolism and increase the length of biological life! Although the situation of Dabai is getting worse and worse, it has been living by eating black lid giant beetle crustacean powder and absorbing Poseidon energy!
Qin Shiou quickly strengthened his control over the six little vampire octopus, then found an aquarium to put them in, and continuously input sea god energy to them to maintain their life.
But he thought about it and put the remaining five into the water, leaving only one in the aquarium.
He left a sea god consciousness, looked at the five vampire octopus, and had other ideas about them.
That evening, Sanders rushed to the fishing ground. What he saw was the only vampire Octopus left in the aquarium. Seeing this, he asked nervously, "Qin, where are the other five little guys?"
Qin Shiou smiled bitterly and said, "sorry, Professor, I saw these guys when I was diving. They were pasted on Geng's body at that time. I only brought one to the surface, and the others went to find them later. I don't know where they went. You know, they are too small, and they can control the color of the body. It's hard to find them once you miss them. "
Yes, the vampire octopus's body can emit biological light, that is, turn the body surface into a crimson color.
Vampire Octopus lives in the deep sea. One of the means to protect their lives is this biological light. When they feel that there is danger, they will suddenly glow, confuse predators and run away. In the morning, when Qin Shiou instilled sea god energy into the vampire octopus in his hand, he saw it emitting crimson light with his own eyes.
