Chapter 201 201. The ability of the brood
“Hu~hu~
Finally returned to reality, Croya took a few deep breaths before calming down.
He He looked at the mosquito that had turned into ashes with some fear. This was the first time since he time traveled that he was so embarrassed. The terrifying power was simply unmatchable.
Fortunately, he had the power of angels to help, otherwise. There’s really no way out.
“Thank you... eh? "
He was about to thank the angel, but found that the angel was lying limply on the comfortable sofa, even his wings were hanging down weakly.
"You, what are you doing? What's wrong? "
This is the first time Croya has seen an angel so weak. Could it be that too much power was used inside just now?
Yes, that is the Lord of the Abyss!
< br>
Croya quickly stepped forward, took out his Gopher harp and started playing. Three-color lights surrounded the angel, gradually attracting more white clouds.
The angel's body absorbs these powers like a bottomless pit.
"Oh, get well soon." Croya played the harp seriously, completely unaware of the twitching expression on the angel's face and the unconcealed corners of his mouth.
After about half an hour, He finally sat up slowly, sighed and said: "Lucky friend, I can now confirm that it was the creation that Zugmoi wanted to give Huan at that time. .
A creation from the vast star realm. "
His condition is very weak, and he can't even maintain the light on his body. Croya feels very sad when he sees it. Guilt.
"Sorry, I was too reckless."
He really didn't expect that there was something so terrifying in it, and that it could even bring the consciousness of an abyss lord to himself.
"It's okay." The angel shook his head and pointed to his robe: "The Brood seems to have given you something, don't you take a look?"
Chloe Then he remembered that Brood had stuffed a small insect into his robe just now. He quickly took it out and took a look, and it turned out that it was really there.
"Ah? Wasn't I in the world of soul consciousness just now? How come the things it gave me can still come into reality?"
"...Maybe it's its ability." The angel replied calmly.
"It's possible." Croya also thinks so. After all, it is a special creation that has never been encountered before. It is also normal for an abyss lord to value it so much. It has special abilities.
He quickly put this matter aside and began to observe the bug in his hand.
It was a fat white caterpillar about the size of a palm, with long tentacles like a centipede. It was trying hard to arch its body and look at Croya.
Its small eyes have a very pure color, without the violence of the cockroaches, mosquitoes and monsters standing nearby, it is very pure.
To put it simply, it's a bit like a baby's eyes.
Hmm... thinking about it suddenly makes it even more scary.
Kloya quickly put some weird thoughts behind him, and then tried to communicate with it, but all he got was the consciousness of endless hunger.
Its desire for food is simply more terrifying than the desire for the Flower of Mammon, and it is extremely primitive, like a beast waiting to be fed.
"Are you so hungry?"
After looking at it over and over again, Croya found that the network in its body had been completely broken, and now it was a small network centered on itself.
There is no way to compare it with the unfathomable network of consciousness inside the mosquito just now.
Of course this means that it will not be controlled. The only one who can control it now is itself.
Its name is very simple, it is called "larva".
"Can you grow up?"
"Since you want to eat, then I will let you eat."
"Get food..."
Just when Croya was about to call someone to bring food, the angel reminded: "I remember that what it needs to eat is magic crystal."
"..."
"Bring the magic crystals."
Since he planned to feed it, Croya was not stingy with the magic crystals. He very generously asked Mu Yaoqu Vine King to fetch a hundred magic crystals and piled them directly on the around the larvae.
The angel blinked and said nothing, but raised the corners of his mouth, waiting to see.
I saw the larvae using its sharp mouthparts to bite and tear the magic crystal into pieces, eating it piece by piece, like a starving ghost.
“Crack, click, click!”
With the sound of chewing magic crystals, it quickly ate up the magic crystals around it, squirmed hard and began to chew the magic crystals in the distance. .
Chloë's expression ranged from calm to surprised to numb.
In the end he was completely unable to complain.
You...do you have some kind of extra-dimensional stomach bag?
These hundred magic crystals are dozens of times larger than its body. It actually eats them all, is it still this size?
"Woo~"
When the larvae finished eating the magic crystal, it screamed pitifully at Croya, who twitched the corner of his mouth:
"I want more..."
"Then continue!"
Under his instruction, Mu Yaoqu Teng King transported more magic crystals and fed them to the larvae one by one.
One hundred yuan, two hundred yuan, three hundred yuan, five hundred yuan...
It ate more and more, and Croya's expression gradually changed from numbness to curiosity. This thing can eat so much, what on earth is it going to become?
After eating a thousand magic crystals, it finally stopped eating. Countless gray-brown mucus suddenly appeared around its body, gradually spreading to the surrounding areas.
Its body seemed to be melting in the mucus.
"It's time to build a nest..." The angel said in surprise: "This is a complete larva! Quick, put it in an open place!"
"It's going to become a brood nest!"
After the angel's reminder, Croya didn't dare to neglect, and quickly removed the floor and took it in before its mucus overflowed. Inside the small world.
By the way, a building like a swimming pool was built on the ground for it to shelter.
After throwing it in, Croya breathed a sigh of relief and sat next to it, waiting for what kind of changes it would have.
Inside this pool, which is about one hundred meters long, wide and high, the larvae have completely melted into the gray-brown mucus. Its body has become extremely huge, swimming in the film formed by the mucus. .
About half an hour later, the mucous membrane shattered with a "bang", and a nest that was very similar to the mother nest that had just been seen in the abyss of the consciousness network appeared inside.
It should be made of some strange horn, like a lying monster, still trembling slightly and constantly spitting out some mucus.
But in terms of size, it is much smaller than the mother nest.
"Wow~~~" With it as the center, the gray-brown mucus gradually intertwined to form a carpet that was very similar to the Yavanna Sacred Mine, and finally covered the entire pool.
Thick, moist, warm...
At the same time, some eggs about half a person's height grew out, with embryos beating inside, and the stars of the blasting mosquitoes that Croya saw just now. The same as the embryo inside the body.
Soon, a scorpion-like creature about the size of a dog burst out of the egg.
They left the creep and the pool and ran around, using their sharp mouthparts to tear up the soil and flowers, cutting them up and bringing them back to the nest of the creep.
The cycle goes on and on, just like a diligent worker.
In less than five minutes, the land about a hundred meters centered around the pond had turned into bare ground, and all the dense vegetation growing on it had been cut up by the insects and taken back to their nests. middle.
Those things were all swallowed up by the nest.
There are also several huge insect eggs outside the nest, covered in mucus and trembling. It is obvious that something is hatching inside.
"What a terrifying destructive ability."
Kloya frowned slightly as he watched it completely from hatching to the insects called "worker bees" biting and cutting the plants.
Because until now, the hunger of this brood has not been satisfied, and it still has an extremely terrifying and pure desire for food.
This desire is getting stronger and stronger, and even throwing food in is like adding firewood to the fire. From Croya's perspective, it is orange.
These orange colors are very special and pure, making people feel no malice, but it is precisely this that makes Croya feel very uncomfortable.
"You must have eaten so much and it must be of some use."
Cloya walked up to the mother's nest and asked it: "What are your abilities?"
His tone was not very good, because the damage this thing caused to the environment and its greed for appetite were too exaggerated. In addition, he had a bad impression of this thing in the first place.
If he hadn't noticed anything strange about its soul and consciousness... maybe Croya would have roasted the insect.
The Brood didn't know if it felt Croya's dissatisfaction, and immediately replied: "I, this is my inherited memory!"
It took the initiative to explore its consciousness. , conveyed some information to Croya. The latter was a little disapproving at first, but the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became.
This... these inherited memories actually contain complete structural diagrams from flesh and blood to bones, and they look like cockroaches on the outside, but are actually puppies called springtails.
In other words, it can "make" this kind of springtail.
If you think about it carefully, this is simply creating life!
And it is simply unheard of to create life as a golem. Can such a thing really exist?
Even Croya fell into a brief tangle.
But it was only for a moment. Croya quickly came to his senses and directly used the Astral Body Imprinting Technique to check its Astral Body and consciousness.
It is similar to the previous mother nest. Its body is also filled with countless tubes and chambers, and there are many larvae swimming in the mucus, devouring nutrients.
The larvae are both separate individuals and part of the mother nest. They have nodes of soul consciousness in their bodies and are part of the mother nest network.
“It’s a bit interesting.”
Cloya continued to go deeper, this time looking directly at the consciousness of the brood, searching for the consciousness that it actively opened, and found that besides eating, it was really The only thing left is the drawing of "Springtail".
Otherwise it’s blank.
Since this thing is so weird, Croya decided to add a shackles and shackles to its astral body.
"You must always obey my orders, this is your wish!"
The Brood immediately expressed this wish to Croya.
The Astral Spirit Body Imprinting Technique was successfully activated, leaving a golden sun on the consciousness of the Brood, forever shining on its soul.
After having this insurance, Croya nodded with satisfaction, backed out, and ordered: "Then make one and show it to me!"
"This...I need it More nutrition," the brood said cautiously.
“I have a way.”
“Follow me.
Cloya ordered these worker bees to follow him, and then led them to the paradise of the gluttonous devil. In front of the portal, he pointed inside and said: "There is a lot of food in here, go in and try it. "
"Jiji! ”
The worker bees made a sound, and then entered the gluttonous paradise one by one, and began to carry all the magic plants and monsters growing inside.
Even the soil was not spared.
They are like the most diligent porters, cutting all the items in sight into small pieces and carrying them to the mother nest.
“It’s really not contaminated.” Croya was surprised.
Although there is no owner inside, there is still wind rich in demonic power, which will corrode all creatures that enter inside.
After he lost Kevin as an explorer, his development and exploration here entered a stagnant stage. Unexpectedly, these worker bees who seemed to be able to kill with one hand were not afraid of the devil's breath. .
Is this their terrifying adaptability?
Cloya began to observe their body structure, but their structure was extremely simple. If I must say it, there was something wrong with the outer cuticle.
There are some strange lines and traces inside, which are different from all the magic lines known to Croya so far, and seem to be naturally formed.
It seems to have some refraction effect, and the devil's wind is bounced off after hitting it.
He quickly recorded all these magic patterns and planned to draw them on the armor for experiments later.
By the way, wait for them to carry everything to the mother's nest, and then sprinkle salt on it to make sure that all the demonic magic inside is gone before giving it to the mother's nest for consumption.
After the mother nest ate half a ton of food, its appetite finally weakened, and it began to "create" species called springtails.
Of course, during this process, Croya used the astral body engraving technique to observe its changes throughout the process, watching the larvae carrying the "drawings" undergo changes in the eggs.
The body structure of these larvae is very special, with almost unlimited ductility and growth ability, and both bones and organs can be formed quickly.
It's really like the golem "growing".
Finally, as the egg burst open with a "bang", several springtails emerged from it, and ran to Croya's side and lay down obediently.
They don’t have any violent or painful emotions. They are really like a piece of white paper that can be painted on at will.
Of course Croya started to try without any politeness.
He wants to try what is the maximum level of magic these guys can carry?
Also, is their ability to adapt to the environment really only derived from the magic patterns on their carapace?
