The surface behind this wireworm was originally pitch black. The area closest to the explosion point had its skin evaporated by the scorching heat wave. The surface looked hideous and terrifying, with fishy muscles all over its body, glowing with a bright green light. , it originally had no built-in bones, but there were broken bones in its body. After being pierced through the abdomen by a grenade, half of its body leaked thick dark green liquid with a splash, and its beating internal organs were still trying to save all parts of its body. There were many iron wire larvae in the mouth, which were indirectly strangled in the cradle by the violent vibration.
The whining is piercing, spreading through every sensory organ of the iron worm. It is just lingering. Every time the internal organs drive the blood in the body, a large amount of green blood will leak out and spray on the surrounding bones. It is in danger. It is already rolling on the edge of death. The only thing it can do is to save the offspring in its mouth, and finally let the next female worm take over its position!
However, Zhang Xu will not stand idly by. He cannot appreciate maternal love now, because when the mother worm passes it to other iron worms through special electromagnetic waves, its value is already zero, a mutated creature that is dying and has zero effect. , it will only use its huge body as food for its offspring, providing nutrition and energy needed for evolution!
It's now! The iron worms in its mouth slowly crawled out of the back of the iron worms. A higher-level mutant iron worm was slowly coming, ready to use a special connection sensor outside their bodies to connect and impart knowledge. What a great opportunity!
Just as the iron worms in front of everyone were preparing to congratulate the young iron worm on becoming a queen, Zhang Xu tilted the corners of his mouth, and stood two bone swords in front of him, forming an "X" shape, with the blades slightly skewed. The whole body was as strong as a cheetah, and a violent sword strike came as expected. The two waving sword blades formed a sharp "cross" of white light, without any stop or buffer, and the two swords were suddenly locked between them!
With a stabbing sound, the sword finger flew to the ground with disgusting green flesh. The insects trembled for a moment, and suddenly their blood-red eyes revealed a murderous intent. Even the other ironworms did not expect that someone would come to fight at this time. He kept provoking them. The members were lying dead all over the place and some people broke through. It was quite unexpected that now there is still someone who dares to add fuel to the fire?
Yes! Zhang Xu cut off the connection sensor of the young iron worm, and then the whole worm was like a frog suddenly put into a hot pot. It reacted quickly and was rolling on the ground in pain in an instant. Zhang Xu snorted coldly and used his right hand. The bone sword swung out a crescent moon mercilessly, killing the wireworm in an instant.
Lu Junjie, who had already been arrested, widened his eyes and noticed that Zhang Xu had a confident smile on his lips. He seemed to be confident. Such unscrupulous behavior made the mutant ironworms around him furious. Despite being struck by falling rocks and explosions, as well as being evolved by the eight soldiers just now, They killed many mutated iron worms, but they only eliminated the weak and young ones. The remaining ones were absolutely powerful. Zhang Xu dared to show off his authority on their territory. He was impatient?
But Zhang Xu remained calm. When he saw the tide of iron worms in front of him opening their sharp fangs towards him, Zhang Xu chuckled. He was not surrendering. He picked up his right hand and pointed the bone sword at the dying iron worm behind him. After the worm queen, the worms that were rushing towards Zhang Xu also stopped one after another. They were all stuck in place as if in a daze, not daring to move rashly, for fear that Zhang Xu would kill their most important queen, but there was something in their red eyes. It contains murderous intent. If looks could kill, then Zhang Xu would have died thousands of times!
This is the turning point of the matter. Even if Zhang Xu kills the iron worm that has just taken over from the queen, it will not help, because the other iron worms can take over the job. I wish Zhang Xu had killed the one just now so that more iron worms can compete for the highest power. Opportunity.
However, things became different after Zhang Xu pointed his sword at the iron worm. It was the only insect queen in the whole clan. Without acquiring the knowledge imparted throughout its life, no iron worm could bet on whether Zhang Xu would perish together with the iron worm queen.
However, it is extremely difficult for Zhang Xu to escape from death. If he wants to leave, as long as he leaves the queen, the iron worms surrounding him will swarm up. Of course, Zhang Xu cannot drag the 13-meter-long iron worms behind him. It is completely impossible to threaten someone while walking.
However, Zhang Xu smiled gracefully and pointed at Lu Junjie and others hanging on the wall with the bone sword in his left hand. His meaning was simple and clear. He just wanted to let them go. Zhang Xu now has the ability to save them, so why not? Give the rare survivors a chance for a better future!
The mutated iron worms were a little hesitant. Compared to the humans they had worked so hard to catch from outside, they actually had to release them with their own hands. How could they feel bad?
Zhang Xu didn't care whether these mutated creatures felt uncomfortable or not. He was indifferent. His eyes showed a cold substance. He exerted force on the tip of the sword, and the sharp bone sword immediately sank into the crumbling wireworm. It had already been seriously injured. It seemed so weak that it just roared and lost its volume. Even the screams gradually disappeared, and its vitality was dying.
The mutated iron worms around them became restless and immediately decided to let them go! You can catch them again after the food is put out, but if the only queen dies, you have to pay a lot of money to produce queens. You must know that wireworms are not social animals. They only have this kind of division of labor after devouring a group of mutated ants. With clear genetic inheritance, if you want to give birth to genes like those of ants, all you have to do is devour their queens. And if you touch their most important mutant queen, do you think the mutant ants will send you away with a smile?
They originally thought of swallowing another nest of mutated ants so that they could add this gene to their own queens. However, ants are born with a clear division of labor and orderly cooperation. After the mutation, they became larger and almost invincible in the insect world. Who dares to provoke the power?
The iron worms are really tough, and they have provoked another nest of mutant ants. The result is not like the outbreak of the apocalypse. There are about ten thousand mutant ants in the current ant nest, and they can crush these ignorant iron worms at will. After that, they After realizing the lesson, they had no choice but to keep to themselves and defend their queen. They are not naturally social insects like ants and bees. They have to explore everything by themselves, so the inheritance of the queen must be given to newcomers.
However, this does not happen in the ant pile, because they are a species that evolved slowly billions of years ago. Even if the queen suddenly dies suddenly, they still have male ants in power who can designate excellent genes to continue to act as the queen. These It's not something that a wireworm can learn by randomly merging half-way genes, but it can also happen when multiple genes are fused, such as destroying several ant nests or bee nests. It's a pity that insects can survive. All mutate and become more powerful beings!
