章節 284: Chapter 283
A bomb rapidly flew through the night sky and landed among the swarm of Chibucha bugs.
Boom!
Before the Chibucha bugs could react, a powerful explosion engulfed them. The explosion wasn't a shockwave, but a powerful paralyzing toxin. The toxin seeped into the breathing holes of the Chibucha bugs, causing their nerves to become paralyzed. One by one, they fell to the ground.
The attack that came without warning covered almost all the Chibucha bugs, but some still managed to escape into the mushroom forest.
Monte II looked at the situation in astonishment. Lin's poison gas was targeted at the Chibucha bugs and had no effect on it. When it saw the swarm of Chibucha bugs fall, it immediately began to struggle frantically. It understood that this was an excellent opportunity.
However, the mushroom seemed to be very sticky. No matter how it struggled, it couldn't break free. Even if it managed to break free and escape, Lin could still track it down.
Bechymos slowly ascended from the beach and flew towards its target. As it flew through the forest, Lin heard a sharp cry coming from the forest. A large number of Chibucha bugs were screaming and running around. Lin could sense their fearful thoughts. They might have thought that another creature had invaded their island.
That was indeed the case …
Lin didn't know what relationship they had with fungi. However, even though the fungi had become relatively 'peaceful' here, if they still wanted to spread outside, they would have to destroy all fungi. As for the Chibucha bugs, she would have to take her time to deal with them.
Bechymos flew to the clearing in the forest. Monte II, who was stuck to the mushroom, also saw the enormous silhouette in the sky. At this moment, Monte II was stunned. At that moment, its thoughts became incomparably terrified. It began to struggle even more …
It had Montezuma's memories. That was why it could 'remember' when Bechymos attacked them.
Bechymos slowly descended. It extended its devouring tentacles, plucked Monte II and the mushroom behind him from the ground and swallowed them.
Following that, Lin continued to devour the large number of paralyzed Chibucha bugs on the ground. They were mainly used for research. Lin wanted to see if their dependence on fungi was too high. If it wasn't too high, she could throw them to other islands. At the same time, she wanted to see if the brainworms understood what they were saying.
But for now, he had to ask Monte II what happened …
Lin neutralized the mushroom's stickiness with a type of mucus, allowing it to break free from the mushroom. Monte II was swallowed into one of the Bechymos' abdominal pouches. Inside the pouch were a bunch of tentacles and a Monitor.
Monte II did not seem to be as' courageous' as Montezuma. When it was swallowed, it kept trembling. This was a clear sign of fear. Lin did not care too much about it. She immediately had the monitor display the image of the mushroom forest below, as well as the image of the ship drifting on the sea.
At the same time, he asked it, "Things, memories. Experience. "
"Destroy … leave," Monte II said in a soft voice.
What did it mean?
"Leave me, destruction." Monte II suddenly raised his voice. "Leave. Don't chase after me. End the war. My race is about to be wiped out. I'm looking for a new world, a new life. "
So that's how it is. Is the 'destruction' it was talking about referring to Lin? Even now, it still held great fear towards Lin. This was a bit troublesome, so Lin continued, "Explain your experience. Set off. Sea, island, fungus, Qibucha insects. Explain, there will be no harm, no fear."
Every time Lin said a word, the monitor would display a corresponding image. Monte II quickly understood Lin's meaning. Although it did not seem to be very willing, it still said it …
Monte II's journey began just as Lin had expected. After sailing for a while at sea, they encountered a storm. A few of the ships were sunk by the storm, and the sail of the ship it was on was broken.
Then, it left its ship and came to this island. Originally, it wanted to reproduce and increase its population here, but it seemed that because it ate some mushrooms, it was attacked by the Qibucha insects. The Qibucha insects killed its troops and stuck it to the mushrooms.
In other words, Monte II did not seem to understand the Qibucha insects very well, nor did it understand the meaning of sticking it to the mushroom.
Lin carefully dissected the mushroom it was stuck to. Aside from being extremely sticky, this mushroom also had a large number of thread-like structures. Furthermore, the ends of these thread-like structures were sharp, while the middle was hollow. There was a large amount of bacterial dust inside …
It was like a syringe filled with bacterial dust.
In that case, Monte II might have been injected with a lot of bacterial dust by this mushroom? However, it did not seem to be a problem at the moment. Lin carefully inspected its body and discovered that there were some small wounds in the weak parts of Monte II's carapace near its head.
So that's how it was … it might have been infected by the fungus. Although it seemed to be fine, it didn't matter. Let's go in and take a look!
A tentacle stretched out from the inner wall of Bechymos' pouch and pierced into Monte II's wound, injecting a large number of miniaturized troops into the wound – Trackers. This was a new troop class that specialized in searching for minute objects.
The traffic in the blood vessels was very busy. Countless cells and all kinds of substances were constantly flowing. The tracker also swam in the direction of the brain along these channels. In the process of swimming, it examined every thing that flowed through the blood vessels.
Lin discovered that this type of bacterial dust was different from the usual ones. It was very small, so it could be hidden anywhere. However, the brain was obviously the most suspicious. It might be trying to control Monte II's brain.
Normally, immune cells would gather in places where foreign objects invaded. Lin had not discovered this phenomenon yet, but some of the Trackers that had reached the brain had discovered some fungi.
These fungi were motionless in Monte II's body. What was strange was that the immune cells seemed to ignore them and attacked Lin's Trackers instead. They could not tell that these fungi were invaders.
These fungi were currently lying dormant. They were very similar to latent parasites. These parasites would not attack their host during normal times and would only become active during reproduction. Lin did not know what these fungi were doing, but it would be fine as long as she got rid of them.
At the same time, Lin prepared to wake up the paralyzed Chibucha Bugs and see if the Cephalopods could understand what they were saying. However, it was very unlikely that they were using the same language as the ones in the Twisted Jungle …
Language was a very complicated thing. Some creatures with more complicated languages had a special region in their brain that was specially used to process language.
Lin placed the Chibucha Bugs in the sac beside Monte II. She used her tentacles to wake up a few Chibucha Bugs. When they woke up, they started making all sorts of noises.
Lin played these noises for the Cephalopods that were teaching the young wyverns language. However, just as Lin was about to play …
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a soft sound came from outside.
A large number of spikes shot out from the ground and pierced into Bechymos's skin.
This was obviously the work of the Chibucha Bugs. Lin saw a large number of Chibucha Bugs gathered in the open space below, each of them carrying a small mushroom on their back.
Suddenly, they made a series of noises together. The mushrooms shot out countless needles at the same time. These needles rained down on Bechymos's abdomen.
However, Lin did not feel anything. Bechymos shook its body slightly and all the needles fell to the ground.
What a weak attack. The tips of these needles did not seem to be coated with anything. Did they really think this kind of attack would be effective?
The Chibucha Bugs stopped shooting after a while, as though they had used up all their needles. Right at this moment, a loud noise came from afar.
Two huge spheres with a diameter of about five meters flew over from afar and crashed into Bechymos's side. The two spheres exploded at the moment of impact. The force of their impact caused Bechymos's body to tilt slightly.
How could such spheres be shot out like this? Lin sensed that her surroundings were filled with a large amount of gas. It was the poisonous gas released by the spheres.
Bang!
A few more spheres flew over from the forest. They crashed into Bechymos's body and exploded, releasing even more poison.
The surrounding air became indistinct amidst the poisonous fog. Lin had Bechymos close its nostrils and rose into the sky.
After gaining a wider field of vision, Lin discovered that the spheres that had been constantly releasing pompom had all disappeared. Instead, a large crater had appeared in their original position.
These craters appeared to be alive. The entrance and inner walls of the crater seemed to be made of layers of fungal structures. The inside of the crater was dark and deep. Lin did not know how deep it was.
The spheres just now should have been launched using the air jets from these craters. But was it the fungal attacks? Or the Chibucha Bugs?
No matter what, they should be given something in return, right?
Bechymos opened a cannon on its side, aimed at one of the craters and fired. It was a small Art Creator.
Three seconds after the Art Creator flew into the crater, an incomparably violent explosion suddenly sounded! The whole ground shook violently. Several large mushroom trees around the entrance of the crater collapsed. The fungal structures at the entrance of the crater were instantly turned into dust and powder under the impact of the shockwave.
After the explosion, all the Chibucha Bugs below fled into the forest in fright, dispersing without a trace. Lin could truly feel their fear.
Speaking of which, an underground explosion was indeed very effective. However, using shockwaves to deal with fungi was not enough. They had to rely on eating them all.
Bechymos then dropped a large number of airdrop pods. A large number of troops walked out from the pods that split open.
The next step was to devour the entire island. Floating astronomy.
