Chapter 672: Insect Pest (Part 1)
Deep in the earth, in a cave that was obviously hastily dug, tens of thousands of brown insect eggs the size of watermelons were scattered and piled up. These insect eggs were originally some widely distributed species of demonic insects in the demon world, but since they are qualified to be regarded by Rose as chess pieces to disrupt the human race's borders, they naturally have their own characteristics.
They generally have the characteristics of fast reproduction, tenacious vitality, and a wide range of diets, which ensures that they will not die quickly due to acclimatization after hatching. Moreover, after Rose's magical transformation, their survivability and ferocity were further strengthened. According to the original plan, once they were successfully hatched, they would surely quickly disrupt border security, disrupt people's livelihood, and attract the attention of the border army. Four more The barbarians are attacking from outside, and by cooperating with the inside and outside, they are very likely to break through several borders and achieve good results.
However, the effect of the Evil God's bodily fluids added huge variables to this plan.
I saw that the surface of each insect egg was now covered by a thin layer of light gray mucus, and from this layer of mucus, countless long black threads as thin as hair grew, as if they were alive. It stretches in all directions, constantly piercing into the existences it touches along the way. Some underground creatures that accidentally pass by this cave, whether they are snakes, insects, rats, ants, are all entangled and wrapped in these seemingly slender but tough and sticky black threads, and then pierced into the body. , quickly absorbed and turned into mummies. After absorbing the life essence of these creatures, the color of the eggs becomes brighter and the size increases slightly. The filaments also seem to have increased activity, stretching and hunting faster and faster.
Later, the filaments derived from the surface of these insect eggs became more and more ferocious. They actually began to actively intercept and devour the surrounding animals and plants. They even became entangled with other insect eggs, piercing each other's bodies, absorbing the essence of the egg, and began to kill each other. !
The entire cave seemed to be plunged into a restless and evil atmosphere. A faint gray mist rose from the depths of the insect egg pile and filled the entire cave. All the underground creatures with relatively sensitive senses within a few miles around felt the ominous situation here, and fled frantically.
Just as the insect eggs were entangled and fighting each other, the gray mist shook violently and began to rotate rapidly, forming a vortex and forming a strong suction force toward the surface above. Soon, drops of blood dripped from the cave wall above, and quickly formed a shower of blood, sprinkling on the pile of insect eggs.
It's the blood flowing from the corpses on the ground battlefield! At this moment, it was extracted here by the power of the strange mist.
The insect eggs that had already fallen into cannibalism stopped fighting immediately when they came into contact with the blood. Each of them tried their best to stretch the filaments on their body surface and quickly absorbed the blood. They seemed to know the "deliciousness" and taste of the blood. The "nutrition" far exceeds that of those underground creatures, and they all greedily absorb and ask for it. In just an hour, all the blood rain that was drawn was absorbed.
In the multiverse, if we want to compare the existences of evil spirits who like to suck blood, except for those special races with naturally huge vitality and blood, among the widely distributed and large number of ethnic groups, the blood essence of humanoid intelligent creatures is the most "nutritious" "This is probably because the blood of humanoid intelligent creatures not only contains blood, but also trace amounts of soul fragments. In other words, it is more "spiritual". After absorption, it will be easier to strengthen itself. Some vampires , can even extract a person's memory by absorbing his blood, which shows the efficacy of the blood of intelligent humanoids.
The blood of thousands of barbarians is so huge, not to mention that these barbarians are warriors trained by the major tribes in the grassland. They are all strong and full of blood, and they have all been demonized, and their blood contains The blood and magic power are very abundant. After absorbing this blood, the insect eggs quickly metamorphose and mutate.
The mucus on the surface of the egg begins to multiply rapidly, wrapping itself in a thick layer of mucus, and the filaments growing on the surface begin to connect to other eggs. This time, they no longer kill each other, but blend and combine with each other, entwine each other, weave into cocoons, and eventually form a huge "mountain of insect eggs."
Within a radius of ten miles, the earth's magic and magical elements, which are so rich that they are almost visible to the naked eye, are forcibly extracted by the "Insect Egg Mountain" and surround the mountain. They are absorbed by the densely packed small holes on the mountain wall and supply the insect eggs inside for development. Inside the "mountain wall" formed by thick translucent mucus and filaments, one can vaguely see huge yellow larvae twitching and developing rapidly.
And this is not the end. While this huge "worm egg mountain" is extracting the magic power and magical elements of the earth's veins, it is also constantly releasing streams of light blue smoke in all directions. This smoke has strong hallucinogenic and hallucinogenic properties. Creatures contaminated by radiation will rapidly mutate and be dominated by hallucinations, unconsciously moving towards the "Insect Egg Mountain".
The scary thing is that this mutation can even distort the basic shape and will of living creatures, transforming them into many monsters that can only be born in human nightmares! In areas shrouded in light blue smoke, scenes like this can be seen everywhere:
The roots of a big tree are constantly twisting like tentacles, dragging the tree body to dig up the soil and drill into the cave where the "Insect Egg Mountain" is located; tiny insects grow under the fluorescent mushrooms in the caves of various sizes. Like limbs, leaping towards the "Insect Egg Mountain"; followed by blind fish with long legs crawling on the ground, cave bats with tumor pustules all over their bodies, and mutations with six legs and two heads. Pangolin, underground moss that looks like a puddle of mud but has countless tiny eyes on the surface...
These underground creatures began to mutate the moment they were exposed to the light blue smoke, and then spontaneously flocked to the "Insect Egg Mountain", where they were absorbed and became nutrients for the growth of the insect eggs.
This evil light blue smoke even spread to the surface and began to infect surface creatures. However, it is probably because the cultivators have strong resistance and Yingyang Pass has a large protective formation, so they are not directly affected; it may also be that some kind of will that controls this mist knows that these humans are not that easy to deal with, Therefore, we did not force the transformation directly, but boiled the frog in warm water.
The soldiers guarding the city and the warriors and cultivators in the city just felt that their emotions began to become irritable and impulsive, and they became more jealous and more ruthless in fighting.
