Three months later, the giant snake's flesh, flesh, and scales turned to ashes, and its body essence condensed into its bones.
Zhang Changkong looked at the huge coiled skeleton in front of him and was a little amazed.
"As expected of a ferocious beast, the physical body alone has this background. Now, before it is completely refined into a skeletal war beast, a ferocious aura is coming. If it is refined into a skeletal war beast, I am afraid that the mage will come. As long as his magic weapon is not too powerful, I can fight him for a few rounds." Zhang Changkong sighed, a farmer holding a big sword made of steel is not much different from a sword made of strong iron by a famous craftsman.
"Look at this, it only takes half a month to refine the corrosive black energy that is enough to support the flight of the bone snake." Zhang Changkong imagined how the bone snake might glow and heat under his hands in the future, and he was a little excited. Focusing on cultivating earth attribute spells, his attacks are still a bit one-sided after all. With this bone snake, he makes up for his shortcomings to a large extent, especially when facing enemies who can fly.
"Forget it about the bone snake. Can the golden-needle wasp still fly when it looks like that?"
Zhang Changkong looked speechlessly at the wasp that seemed to be developing for the second time.
The wasp has turned into a big insect six meters high and twelve or thirteen meters long. At this moment, it is sleeping.
Circles of golden stripes appeared on the ink-black body of the Golden Needle Wasp, as if it were wearing a striped tights. Some of its originally somewhat transparent fleshy wings became angular, and white bones covered the inside of the wings. The originally damaged wings It also grew new.
Unexpectedly, there was no sign of the colorful moth's transformation, and the golden-snail wasp unexpectedly experienced transformation.
"The Golden Needle Hornet has eaten countless vitality stones. Although it is not as much as I have consumed, it has eaten it directly and the utilization rate may be higher. Moreover, the insects and ferocious beasts do not all rely on energy such as mana to transform life like the human race. Form, most of them rely on body blood and the like. The golden-needle wasp ate the entire king centipede. Logically speaking, the king insect that is promoted to the level of a mage is not much different. Although its breath is now in the golden scarab Above, it is much worse than the King Insect. Do you need any other conditions?" Zhang Changkong considered that in addition to vitality, his promotion to a mage also requires the essence of heaven and earth such as earth essence, which is a bit of a refining process. I'm afraid the zerg will need something special besides vitality and blood to break through its current life form.
"Do you need the essence of heaven and earth? No, although the Sanhe Rainforest is very large, it is still in the territory of the Xiangshan Sect after all. The essence of the earth will be plundered to a certain extent. There should not be too much essence of the earth for these aliens to use." Zhang Changkong thought of the centipede king and the giant snake. There were obviously other ferocious beasts and king insects in the Sanhe Rainforest. There was no reason for the earth essence to be so abundant.
"It's not the essence of the earth. Is there other kinds of essence of heaven and earth in Sanhe Rainforest?" Zhang Changkong knew that there are many kinds of essence of heaven and earth. Maybe there are other kinds of essence of heaven and earth in Sanhe Rainforest. After all, this is a dangerous place. , even if the mage from the Xiangshan Sect came to search, it is impossible to search very carefully, and there are many omissions that can be explained away. This is the case with his vitality stone vein. You must know that searching for the vitality stone vein in the mage realm is not like him. If they are lucky, they will use a special talisman to search for where there are veins of vitality stones.
"The Xiangshan Sect knows that there are several vitality nodes in the Sanhe Rainforest. In the past, I had no say in the Xiangshan Sect and could not obtain this information. Although it is still the case now, with my current strength, even if I cannot get all of them Information, at least we can get information about one vitality node." Zhang Changkong knew that the Xiangshan Sect had a general understanding of every dangerous place. Those dangerous places that had disappeared one after another in the past were because the Xiangshan Sect discovered precious resources in them. Gathering most of the sect's strength to level those dangerous areas.
"According to Master Liakong, I only need to go to Nanman Tianguan to guard for one year. By then, I will be able to mine for another ten years and basically be able to dig up high-grade vitality stones, as long as there are any in that vein of vitality stones. , there are still five years left, and the vitality nodes combined with the vitality stones will be enough for me to increase my mana to the limit of the late warlock, then I can enter the wilderness in the best condition under the current situation. As long as I am careful, it will be basically safe." Zhang Changkong I feel like my plan is simple but effective.
Zhang Changkong glanced at the Golden Needle Hornet and said to himself: "I don't know if the insect catching team will be able to find the key materials for the insect to advance to the king insect in the next few years. If they can't find it, the insect will leave the Three Rivers Rainforest, which is suitable for insect survival. I don’t know if I can find promotion opportunities in the future.”
Deep in the Three Rivers Rainforest.
"Captain Jin Kun, we have been walking for a long time. This underground passage has not reached the end yet. We don't have enough torches. Now we may have to walk a long way in the dark when we turn back." A boy with a short crew cut said to a short young man said the man.
Jin Kun is one of the new captains of the insect catching team. He used to be the captain of the insect catching team. After contracting a centipede insect, he took advantage of the expansion of the insect catching team and became the captain of a team, on an equal footing with the previous three captains. , for more than a year, there have been many people who have contracted centipede insects. He was promoted to captain because his centipede insect combat effectiveness is one of the best among the newly hatched insects. His earth-burrowing centipede is only five meters long. It is a type of small centipede, but it has a strong ability to burrow into the ground, and its carapace and legs are as hard as iron. Not to mention losing the battle with other people's centipedes, it was not even injured. The ground burrowing centipede seemed to have absorbed all the essence of its body. Concentrated, it was so powerful that it was a blur. Venomous centipedes, flying centipedes, and super-large centipedes were all no match for his earth-burrowing centipede, so no one objected to his promotion to squad leader.
Jin Kun turned around and glanced at the team of more than 900 people. The torches of this team were lined up in a long queue. They could see farther from the relatively straight underground passage. This was just a small team under the fourth detachment of the insect catching team. Their large team Still outside.
"It is impossible to look back. We have come so far. This cave is obviously unusual. Since the establishment of our team, we have not achieved any results. This is our chance. As long as we make contributions, eggs and money , the status is everything. If our insect catching team wants to get ahead, we have to fight with our lives. Otherwise, the eggs of your sons and daughters in the future will be ordinary bugs, not even rare bugs, let alone zerg bugs. Now The technology of Miaoshan Research Laboratory is getting higher and higher, and there has been a great breakthrough in identifying zerg eggs. Without credit, you will not even have the chance to get lucky in the future," Jin Kun said loudly. He was young, but He has a high status and knows more things. He knows that there are many good things in the Miaoshan Research Laboratory, including many drugs that can improve strength and even increase life span. If there is no merit, there are many people in Miaoshan who have a higher status than him and have similar qualifications to him. Deeper than him, what can he fight for?
Just when Jin Kun wanted to say something else, a middle-aged man came back from the front and said, "Captain, we found something ahead. There are many skeletons there. They don't look like ordinary beasts. Those skeletons are a little special."
This middle-aged man is the team leader of the bug-catching team's pathfinding team. The bugs contracted by their team are all related to searching for enemies, concealing, and being vigilant.
"Oh, have we finally come to the end? Come on, everyone, please be careful and let the bugs you contracted walk on both sides. If people walk in the middle, there may be fights." Jin Kun was very calm and did not get carried away by the surprise.
Jin Kun's orders were conveyed to the back one by one. Fortunately, the passage was relatively large, with an average width of seven or eight meters. The contract bugs everyone brought were all selected and small in size.
Soon, Jin Kun and the others reorganized their formation and walked forward.
