Volume 4 Chapter 43 The Golden Beetle
Although the power of the biological warhead is not enough to be Shi Leiyin's main attack method, it is still a very effective long-range attack method. Moreover, its effect of controlling the flight trajectory can well bypass the frontal defense of the target and strike at the back or weak points. Coupled with the simplicity of production and the extremely low consumption capacity, Shi Leiyin knew that this biological warhead would be one of his common long-range attack methods in the future.
Craft a portion of the living warhead and hide it in the shoulder storage room on the other side, and create a launch nest inside. In this way, the storage room on the right shoulder of the body of the body has been transformed from the original state of control into a living warhead launch compartment. Shi Leiyin has always been envious of the footage of those transformer mechs firing missiles, and now he can finally play it himself.
'Fire' With Shi Leiyin's thoughts, the lid of the shoulder launch compartment automatically popped upward, and twenty-four living warheads were shot out instantly. In just the blink of an eye, the plants in front of Shi Leiyin and the stone pillars were blown to pieces.
Although the biological warhead does not have the white air flow rules of small missiles, there is no roar, and the explosion is even more silent. But the power was beyond Shi Leiyin's expectations.
As many as seven stone pillars in front of the road were blown up, and two of them were directly blown into three by two warheads. Warheads that do not hit the pillar explode at a greater distance. The plants blocking the way can't even trigger the warhead explosion and are directly penetrated by the warhead, and all the warheads that explode in the distance are because of the self-explosion protection after locking the distance from the mind.
"This power is no weaker than that of an ordinary electromagnetic cannon," Shi Leiyin judged after carefully observing the blown stone pillar. Although the stone pillars of the Stone Forest Secret Realm are not special stones, they are much harder than ordinary stones. Even if Shi Leiyin attacked with an electromagnetic cannon, it would at most cause this kind of interruption effect. Of course, if it's a cannon, it's more likely that a single blow passes through several stone pillars than breaks them.
The power of this accident made Shi Leiyin feel that maybe he could focus more on the research of this kind of biological warhead in the future.
And now, Shi Leiyin is focusing on the glimmer of golden light that appears not far away.
That came at the farthest point where a living warhead exploded. That golden-colored glow made Shi Leiyin sure that it would not be the reflection of the vines above.
As Shi Leiyin approached, the golden light became clearer and clearer.
When Shi Leiyin stepped over a fallen stone pillar, the body of the golden light appeared in front of him.
'Golden beetle?' Shi Leiyin thought as he looked at the object in front of him, a little surprised.
The creature in front of him was not a golden beetle like the name 'Golden Beetle', and the reason Shrayin said this was that it resembled a class called 'Golden Beetle' in a real-time strategy game on Earth.
It was a caterpillar-like creature that looked more like a beetle than a beetle, with a distinctly knotted structure on its body, and what looked like huge pieces of golden armor stacked on top of each other due to its metallic sheen over its golden hue. As such, the creature should technically be a caterpillar with a golden armor-like shell, not a golden beetle.
The golden beetle in front of him was very large for an insect, about five meters long, and the highest part of its back was nearly one meter. Although the head is also concealed under the armor-shaped shell, the tentacles of the mouthparts can be seen closing one by one.
As Shi Leiyin approached, the noise seemed to startle the giant creature. The golden beetle began to arch back like a normal caterpillar, trying to hide itself in the hole behind it, which was supposed to be its nest.
Apparently realizing that he was too slow to threaten to retreat back to the burrow before he arrived. The back of the golden beetle arched upward, and the carapace of the back that had been tightly stacked parted, and fist-sized balls of golden light flew out of the cracks in the carapace.
'Even scarabs?' Shi Leiyin was startled and quickly stopped. The living warhead on the shoulder was quickly loaded, ready to be sent out to intercept the balls of light. The gold beetle in the game can release an autonomic bomb called a scarab, which is extremely powerful. And the form was a golden ball of light the size of a fist.
However, Shi Leiyin soon let his guard down, and it was clear that the creature that looked like the game's powerful class was a real creature, not the in-game bug-shaped mechanical factory. Although the ball of light released is extremely similar to the scarab bomb, it is actually an insect that Shi Leiyin is very familiar with, the Great Thunder Light Worm.
The Great Thunder Light Insect is a carnivorous insect with a special electric current wrapped around it, making it look like a golden ball of light. This electric current can paralyze the target through contact, and can be used to attack prey and defend against predators, even if it is a large creature as large as an ancient wurm, it will be paralyzed for several seconds if it is electrocuted by the electric current of the large thunder light worm.
The Great Thunderbolt's electric talent allows them to usually act independently. Their close relatives, thunderbolt insects, live in symbiosis with other large organisms. The most famous of these is the Thunder Wolf Dragon, and the Thunder Light Worm that lives in symbiosis with the Thunder Wolf Dragon can not only bring powerful electricity to the Thunder Wolf Dragon, but also obtain lightning power and food through the Thunder Wolf Dragon.
Obviously, this situation now proves that the Great Thunderlight Worm will also live in symbiosis with other creatures. And in the current situation, the Great Thunderlight Insect should be parasitic in the body of the golden beetle, and the golden beetle provides body fluids and other substances as food. In contrast, the large thunderbolt insect provides protection for the golden beetle.
Looking at the big thunder light insect flying towards him, Shi Leiyin was a little funny. Although the current of the large thunder light insect is extremely paralyzing, it lacks lethality. Even if you can't resist this current, it's just the result of being paralyzed. What's more, when it comes to the ability to paralyze thunderbolts, he has the genetic structure of the slime subspecies of the thunderbolt system, Rem.
Let the big thunder light insect hit his body. Shi Leiyin couldn't help but sigh that the current of the Great Thunder Light Worm was indeed extraordinary. He was paralyzed, though only for about a second. But as a result of the continuous impact of dozens of large thunder light insects on his body, he could only watch as the golden beetle retreated into the burrow.
However, these big thunder insects did not retreat from the whole body, and although Shi Leiyin now looks like a huge robot more than three meters tall, in fact, the outermost layer is still wrapped in a layer of slime's body. While the big thunder light insect hit Shi Leiyin's body and paralyzed him, he was also stuck to Shi Leiyin's slime body and slowly dragged into his body.
