Chapter 55: Strange Parasites
If the huge size of the white wolf brought visual shock to Bai Ye, then the scene in front of him was extremely weird, only to see a two-headed poisonous snake covered with black and white patterns hanging at the other end of the shoelaces!
One head of the two-headed snake was biting the bait, and the eyes of the other head were fixed on the man.
The poisonous snake with two heads may only surprise Bai Ye, what is really strange is the white lines of the snake's body, which is actually wriggling strangely.
When he looked closely, he realized that there was a pattern, which was clearly a pattern composed of countless tiny parasites clinging to it.
The tiny parasites burrowed into the other black skin little by little, and with each minute they entered, the scales of the snake's body would be peeled off a little, and this scene made people's scalps tingle to watch!
In just a split second, those white parasites were squirming quickly along the shoelaces onto the man's arm!
Bai Ye, who found this, shouted violently: "Throw it away, this insect has a strong sense of attack!"
At the same time, his dagger had already flown towards the shoelace, and at this moment the danger factor of the parasite took the first place in his brain, far more than the ugly viper.
The rope snapped and broke, but the man was already frightened and could not listen to anything else, he just stood there in a daze, and the two-headed snake that fell down the lace of his shoes bounced violently, and a pair of white fangs flew towards the other person's neck.
Li Ergou subconsciously wanted to pull the man, but he was pulled back by Bai Ye, and at the same time, the people who helped dig the cave screamed.
Several strange-shaped snakes came out of the cave and bit each other's necks directly, some snakes had two heads, some snakes had an extra tail on their abdomen, and some snakes had nostrils on the edge of their nostrils, each of which was extremely ugly and disgusting.
Bai Ye soon discovered that the attack methods of these snakes were very different from ordinary snakes, and the time it took for ordinary snakes to complete from the launch of the attack to the end of the attack only took a few tenths of a second.
After these snakes bite each other's necks, they are like maggots on the tarsal bones and refuse to let go, and in an instant, countless tiny parasites wriggle along the snake's body to each other's necks.
All the parasites move in exactly the same direction, and that is the hole in the neck that has been pierced by the fangs!
Li Ergou looked at the scene in front of him with a handstand, and involuntarily stepped back: "This, what is this!"
"Whatever it is, run before they pay attention, or it will be worse than dead if you are bitten!" Bai Ye said as he pulled the green leaf and turned around and ran.
When he ran, he didn't forget to glance in the direction of the snake cave, and saw that there were more than a dozen snakes flying in the direction of the crowd, and this was actually a mutant snake nest!
The snake nest is full of the remains of various animals, including rabbits, pheasants, and human hair, as well as dozens of small white snakes entwined together, these snakes are devoured and covered by parasites as soon as they are born, this is not only a snake nest, but also a nest of parasites, just a glance makes people's scalp tingle!
Seeing this, the rabbit snatched the green leaf from the white leaf and jumped directly on its back to the front of the crowd, with its bounce power, it could move forward several meters with a single jump, but this still couldn't hide the horror in its eyes. It pointed to the back of the crowd in a panic: "Gurgling!"
Bai Ye looked in the direction, and the people who had been pounced on by the snake had already stood up, and a large number of parasites had appeared on the skin surface of these people, and some of the parasites had directly penetrated into the human head through the nostrils and eyes.
After only a dozen seconds, these people experienced torture that was even more terrible than hell.
They frantically clasped the flesh on their heads and faces, and some even buckled the flesh off, and under the flesh were parasites that were madly burrowing in.
At this moment, Bai Ye finally understood that the destination where the parasite was going to enter was the head!
The howls and pleadings slowly stopped with the invasion of the parasite, but everyone did not dare to stop, because at this moment everyone found that the people who had been bitten by the snake stood up one by one with hideous expressions, and they had completely lost consciousness and began to chase towards this side like a walking corpse.
After Bai Ye put on the bow and crossbow, he waved an arrow, and the arrow shot directly through the opponent's head, and the corpse fell to the ground with a bang, and countless parasites came out of the corpse and began to converge on other creatures.
Sure enough, this is different from the novels of 200 years ago, destroying the brain center can only stop the other party's activity, but not kill these bugs.
"Run, don't look back, run as fast as you can!" He shouted as he turned up his speed to the highest speed.
However, a familiar voice sounded in his head again:
Ding: Trigger the 5/10 consecutive failed missions, adhering to the spirit of friendship and mutual love, please do not hurt a snake to escape from Shekou, this task is a special task, and the completion of the task rewards civilization value +1; +20 weapon fragments; If the mission fails, the side quest will be scrapped.
Bai Ye is about to go crazy, civilization is to play its own rhythm, not hurting a snake in turn understands that it is to kill all snakes, how can this Nima do it?!
The point is not snakes, it's those parasites, every time you kill a snake parasite, it will converge on the surrounding lifeforms, if you stay for a while, I'm afraid that he will also be devoured by these insects.
"Don't look back, keep running!" He commanded everyone to continue to speed up and run wildly, and although the rewards of the mission were very rich, they also had to be killed.
At that moment, there was another scream from the side, and the five men who were running suddenly fell to the ground, and one after another strangely shaped snakes pierced their fangs into their necks.
Bai Ye didn't hesitate to take the bow and arrows decisively, and one arrow after another quickly pierced through the heads of these people, and Xu Lingshan even took the opportunity to use the wind blade to smash the mutant snakes that followed closely behind.
This blow of the wind blade won everyone the best chance to escape, everyone fled frantically with the scorching sun on their heads and feet on the scorching ground, and they dared to stop after running for more than ten minutes in one breath, until they saw the refugee area in front of them to have a sense of security.
"They, why didn't they chase them?" Li Ergou put his hands on his knees and gasped violently, his eyes were full of fear: "What are those insects, even people can control them!"
Bai Ye wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and looked at the direction he fled just now: "It should have escaped from their hunting range." ”
Li Ergou sat on the ground and asked incredulously: "I've only heard that lions and tigers have a hunting range, why do you have this thing too?"
"In fact, creatures with a certain amount of intelligence have their own hunting range, and this group of bugs is not simple. Bai Ye said as he wound the crossbow arrows.
At this time, someone in the team suddenly said in horror: "The vole blood we drank just now was taken out of the snake's nest, should we drink those bugs into our bodies!"
As soon as his words fell, the crowd immediately changed color, and one by one he clasped his fingers to his throat to induce vomiting.
Not only them, but even Bai Ye and Xu Lingshan began to worry, if this thing was drunk, it would probably not work if they split their stomachs!
"That's not right!" Bai Ye quickly realized that he had overlooked the most critical information point, and he looked at Xu Lingshan: "Do you remember the essential difference between voles and those snakes?" ”
"Is there a fundamental difference?" Xu Lingshan recalled carefully, and soon his frowning brows relaxed: "It's consciousness, although snakes have a certain IQ, they look much sluggish, just like those who are manipulated, but voles are different, they will first observe their surroundings when they find food." ”
Bai Ye nodded: "That's right, and there are no voles in the animal remains in the snake's nest, why don't you eat the food at the door, it can't be taboo, right?"
This only shows that there must be something in the vole's burrow that these parasites dare not approach, and it is this thing that has kept them alive to this day.
He clicked on the 'Fuqiang APP' in his watch, looked at the two lone weapon fragments in it, and secretly made up his mind, maybe this time he can really make a big profit!
