The manticore's tail is only as thick as two normal human thighs and less than three meters long. Compared to their tails, which are often more than ten or twenty meters long, they are obviously not ashamed of themselves. How to write the word funny with a few strokes .
Except for the silver-white metallic cloud pattern above that seems to have a certain pattern, the overall feeling is very much like a plastic product, which is dark and non-reflective.
To be honest, this is the first time Lin Chou has seen the tail of a manticore -
The activity range of this creature is too far away from the bright light. How should I put it? Their race has almost cleverly avoided the activity range of all human races, including the Queen City and Northwest Wolf City.
Just like cattle and sheep chasing water and grass, manticores like to follow their almost only food, tortoise-shell wildebeest.
This strangely named beast is also one of the species that has caused headaches for human evolvers. Like a rhinoceros, the tortoise-shelled wildebeest has two long and short horns arranged vertically, and its back is covered with a giant horn that is one to three feet thick. The pre-cataclysmic turtle-shell dragon has a plant-like carapace, and the rest of its body is made of 90% metal fingernail-sized triangular scales - from the head armor to the base of the tail, the manticore's terrifying venom is simply There is no way to get under their skin.
emmmm...
In short, I don’t know how to describe it. These two races who love and kill each other seem to have understood the essence of reverse optimization at the same time...
Ordinarily speaking, in terms of the characteristic of poison alone, it seems that the tortoise-shell wildebeest should evolve poison resistance rather than invulnerable armor.
And shouldn't the Manticore itself strengthen the corrosiveness of the venom appropriately for the armor, or make it easier to inhale the effect?
No, no, the manticore had to start with physical armor-breaking, infinitely strengthen the body, and go head-to-head with the tortoise-shell wildebeest.
Anyway, according to human observation, these two creatures are not at all in line with the evolution of alien beasts in the Cataclysm Era...
Whether the two creatures are predators or predators, whether they are predators or prey, there is no status change due to this seemingly unreasonable evolution.
However...
The evolution of these two creatures failed to guard against each other, but they very cleverly forced human evolvers into a dead end. When faced with them, human evolvers are simply a classic example of a dog biting a hedgehog but unable to bite it.
The biggest headache for most hunters who are active in the wilderness all year round is this kind of thing. The health bars covering their entire body are as smelly and long as the old lady's foot wraps. Except for a few with "absolute" and "judgment" And skills similar to "rules" can be effective on them - but how many lucky ones among the evolvers can have this level of skills?
In short, hunters can hardly come up with any effective targeted methods to deal with such creatures. They can only be dragged to the areas where they are good at and fight them head-on until their heads are bloody, or they simply encounter them. They turned around and ran away in pairs without meeting each other.
Shan Ye complained with a numb face about how long it was for him and the manticore to "get along". According to his old man, the process and feeling were like the invincible shield of some online game bosses before the cataclysm. If you don't break this shield, Down, any attack you make will always be a Miss, and various judgments and negative statuses will not take effect at all. Moreover, even if you take down the shield, you cannot directly see the health bar, and you still have to face its despairing thickness. Armor and armor values.
"Six days, six whole days!"
"Speaking of Lin Zi, you know that before the great catastrophe, people used a beauty software when taking pictures with their mobile phones. When we were using it, it was like using the 'skin grinding' function in that software to polish the skin bit by bit. Its carapace is worn off, and I am so damned..."
Lin Chou fiddled with the manticore's tail.
Underneath the two-finger-thick carapace at the break was crystal clear white flesh, much like the giant centipede he brought back to Master Sanhuang as food for Sanhuang in the mine. It looked ugly and weird, but was actually sweet on the inside. Horse, like a small public lift.
The flesh was still twitching, slowly leaching out light blue blood, looking extremely fresh.
"This transparent, somewhat blue liquid should be the venom of the manticore, right?"
"Hey, hey, hey," Huang Dashan said nervously, "What are you doing? Don't touch it. I'm telling you, although this venom is not corrosive, it will have a certain effect when it touches the skin!"
Lin Chou dipped his chopsticks into the venom and sniffed it.
"What's the main function?"
"Hmm," Shan Ye smacked his lips, "like turning the contents under your skin into suckable jelly in the ecstasy?"
"Ang, it's awesome."
"Damn, I'm not kidding, I've seen it with my own eyes. A shadow leopard was somehow contaminated with venom. As it ran, it suddenly turned into a water-filled ball in the shape of a leopard. There was nothing inside. It’s just a pack of liquid, it’s scary.”
"..."
Lin Chou put down her chopsticks and said regretfully,
"Then we can only find a way to remove the venom. If all the manticores are here, I can study and see how they handle and digest this toxin. What is the original function? Or is it the digestive system? Do you know, Some 'toxins' are a supreme delicacy in their own right."
"I don't care about that Ang..."
Master Shan was still cursing at Bai Qiongshou,
"I risked my life to get this thing out of Bai Shiba's hands. Alas, people's hearts are not ancient, and the world is unfair. I worked hard when I made this thing. Why do you want a tail? According to contribution I can sort out 28% of its weight, ha!"
"I want to know right now whether this thing is worth my lost character. Linzi, what special effects do you think it can have? This is a very rare fifth-order alien beast, the best among fifth-order alien beasts!"
"Well..."
Lin Chou hesitated for a moment.
"According to my personal experience, the 'potential special effects' of alien beasts with such distinctive 'characteristics' are very difficult to change. So, for example... Do you know the Half Crocodile Dragon? ..."
Shanye: ヽ(゜Q.)ノ?
What?
what?
Ball sack!
Doesn't that mean I'm going to fall for it this time?
"emmmm..."
Lin Chou gave appropriate comfort,
"That's not to say it's not good. Just look at how great it would be if the half-crocodile dragon becomes a vegetable and can increase its lifespan and adjust its body functions."
Master Shan looked confused.
"Then...what are the characteristics of the manticore...its fur is comparable to that of a living King Kong..."
Lin Chou looked serious,
"Maybe it's an armor value that's too high to be realistic? Then it's just invincible, okay~"
Shan Ye thought about it over and over again, but he always felt that something was wrong and couldn't figure it out.
"That's not what I meant, I'm not saying it's bad, I mean... uh... this is completely different from what I thought, okay!"
