Chapter 451 Star World 6
The two of them ran around in the nest, stopping from time to time to kill a wave of bugs, but the bugs seemed to be endless, crawling out from the center of the nest continuously.
In fact, the bugs do keep hatching.
The queen insect in the center is laying eggs every moment. Her huge body can lay tens of thousands of eggs at a time, and an egg will hatch into a larva in just a few hours.
However, the nest is not big enough, and the queen insect will instinctively consider the limited survival resources, so she will actively devour a group of larvae and then control the population size.
The disgusting smell of sandworms is something that even the mother worm hates.
However, today, with Lin Xia taking care of some of the sandworms, the mother worm was extremely happy. Her body felt happy, and her egg-laying speed became uncontrollably faster.
Lin Xia and Alex were exhausted from killing, their eyes were dull, and they leaned against the wall for a long time without saying a word.
"Lin Xia, how about we go out first?"
"Shh, don't talk." The bugs were already walking out.
The two men were covered in mucus and squatted in the corner like sculptures.
About an hour later, the nest gradually became empty, and the adult sandworms went out to look for food.
call--
Lin Xia let out a long breath, snapped his fingers, and cleaned the mucus off the two people's bodies.
"The number of people in this group is terrifying."
Lin Xia clicked her tongue twice, turned around and urged Alex to hurry up, since the insects had not returned to their nests yet. They should hurry up.
The two of them trotted all the way to the central area, and soon they saw some eggs that were hatching or had not yet hatched in the passage.
Only at this time did Lin Xia realize the role of human corpses.
Looking around, there were shriveled human corpses hanging in all directions, with their abdomens cut open and piled with milky white insect eggs.
Some of the eggs had already hatched and were crawling out of various parts of the corpse, looking like maggots.
Lin Xia felt strange. These corpses had been there for more than one or two days, but they did not produce any foul smell. Instead, they exuded a faint fragrance.
He walked up to the nearest body and looked down.
His pupils flashed with golden light, and the condition of the corpse was clearly visible. Lin Xia suddenly reached out, picked up a piece of white eggshell, put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it, making sure that the fragrance came from there.
"Alex, what is this?"
Lin Xia handed the eggshell to Alex, who took it and began analyzing its components.
The silvery-white light was very conspicuous in the darkness, causing the surrounding larvae to become restless.
"Wow~" Alex suddenly exclaimed, "We discovered the secret of Wildfire Military Academy."
Lin Xia waited quietly for Alex's answer, only to see him say with surprise on his face.
"Didn't I tell you before that this world has no way to deal with mental riots? Now I find out that I was wrong. In fact, there is a way, and it is right in front of us."
Lin Xia had already guessed what it would say next, "Can this thing cure mental turmoil?"
"Bingo, you guessed it right, there is a substance in the egg shell that can reduce mental pollution."
This thing is of no use to Lin Xia, but she still picked up a part of it and put it into the space. She picked up the egg shell outside the corpse, but found that the egg shell outside had no fragrance.
"Alex, please test this one again."
Lin Xia put the scentless eggshell into Alex's hand.
After a while, Alex shook his head and said, "This doesn't have that special substance. It seems that only eggs hatched from human corpses are useful."
"No wonder that instructor wanted to pick up corpses. It turns out he wanted to cultivate specific medicinal herbs." Lin Xia murmured, and then put Cangnan out of her mind.
The two delayed for a while and continued walking towards the center. As they walked, the footsteps became three more.
Whoosh—whoosh—
There was a faint sound of breathing behind him. Lin Xia controlled his breathing and heartbeat and continued to move forward calmly, but he could still hear the subtle sound.
Turning suddenly, a shadow quickly disappeared into other passages.
"Alex, someone's coming in here."
"Oh, just come in." Alex replied indifferently.
Lin Xia thought so too, so she just came in to get a sword and didn't care what other people were doing.
Ignoring the man behind them, they walked around the eggs on the wall and the ground and soon arrived at their destination. What they saw was a 500-meter-long giant white worm with no hard shell on its body and no disgusting mouth on its abdomen.
The whole body is white, tender, smooth and delicate, like a white jade radish, except for the long and pointed genitals at the tail.
"They don't look like the same breed." Lin Xia poked Alex and muttered softly.
"She's still giving birth now."
Lin Xia glanced at the other party's tail, and sure enough, a group of white eggs were injected into the corpse.
She looked at the tattered corpse in her hands and felt inexplicably shabby. She looked at the other corpses, which were clean and tidy, but the one she was carrying was tattered and dirty.
Lin Xia brought the corpse forward and called out to the big white worm, "Mother Worm, can I exchange this for the black sword in the middle?"
She first pointed at the black sword standing in the middle, and then at the corpse in her hand.
The insect queen tilted her head, not understanding, but when she saw the corpse and then looked at the empty pile of corpses, she raised her tail and tried to snatch the corpse from Lin Xia's hand.
Lin Xia dodged gently and pointed at the black sword persistently.
The insect queen was furious because she didn't get the corpse. She let out a mental explosion, which didn't do anything to Lin Xia, but did shake out a hiding "little mouse".
Lin Xia looked at the girl who rolled out, and then at the confused insect mother.
It’s no wonder that she didn’t notice that the other party was following them at first. It’s really because this girl has special mental power and is extremely concealed. Even the Insect Queen didn’t notice the other party.
No one spoke. Lin Xia looked at his black sword and was too lazy to talk nonsense with the Insect Mother. He waved his right hand, and the black sword trembled, ready to fly out.
Just at this moment, the Insect Queen suddenly reacted, and angrily hugged the Black Sword tightly with her body, refusing to let it go.
A row of crows seemed to fly over Lin Xia's head, looking at the insect mother in confusion.
Ha what! What's the point of a sword being so precious to a bug?
The Insect Mother did not give her an answer. Instead, she imprisoned the black sword and screamed at Lin Xia angrily.
Lin Xia blocked his ears and forcibly summoned the black sword. His spiritual consciousness poured out and entangled with the insect mother's mental power.
The Insect Mother's mental power was busy pulling the black sword while attacking Lin Xia, making the two of them fight evenly matched.
Alex was standing nearby as a spectator. He glanced at the girl nearby and was stunned.
There was no other reason, this person was actually Lin Fei, the student identity that Lin Xia had borrowed before.
Lin Fei stared at the insect mother, his eyes shining brightly, took out the new special mecha, and resolutely joined the battle.
Cangnan, who was outside the nest, heard the sound made by the insect mother and immediately rushed into the nest with a bunch of corpses.
