Chapter 571: Integrating into the Ecological Chain (Part II) (Happy New Year!)

In the entire continent, except for some old immortals, it is estimated that Ling Mo should be the most familiar with those mechanical beings in the Molten City.

Although the Terrans and the Golden Fortress have a deep hatred, it is clear to anyone that the Golden Fortress has terrifying strength and creativity, even if you don't mention the powerful mechanical creations such as Optimus Prime, Ultraman, and Mechanical Evil Dragonmon, just these cyborg bugs in front of you give people a sense of ingenuity.

The overall shape of the insect resembles that of a grasshopper, only many times larger. The vast majority of the body is normal flesh and blood, but in some critical and fragile parts, mechanical structures are used:

The outer shell of the wings is metal, but the inside is a membrane wing, when it flapps its wings and flies, the inner membrane vibration is no different from that of an ordinary grasshopper, and the metal shell can play a good role in protection, so that its defense power is greatly increased;

At first glance, the six arthropods seem to be the same as ordinary grasshoppers, but if you look closely, you can notice that the joints of the arthropods are made of metal materials, and the flesh part is responsible for contracting and exerting force, and the metal joints ensure that these insects will not hurt themselves due to excessive force;

The eyes retain the structure of biological compound eyes, which is obviously a special structure composed of tens of thousands of monoculars, which is much superior to mechanical cameras in imaging, but the antennae on the forehead have been replaced with metal, which looks like two "antennas". Ling Mo took a closer look, and found at least ten different kinds of sensors on the "antenna", including but not limited to force-sensitive sensors, position sensors, liquid level sensors, temperature sensors, speed sensors, modems, video decoders, etc., so that these insects have all-round perception capabilities;

Ling Mo scolded in his heart: What are you doing with so many instruments? Golden Fortress, bastard, do you still want these bugs to watch movies in their spare time?!

In addition to the above, the most conspicuous is the mouthparts of the mechanical grasshopper:

Six narrow metal blades, wrapped in a perfect moon blade shape, show a powerful lethality, open and close, but also reveal a circle of metal chelicera, like a meat grinder, and then look inside, you will find that the tongue in the mouthparts is made of flesh and blood, flick by flick, extremely flexible.

Although the materials are different, the mouthparts and tongue work together perfectly, and those metal jaws easily tear open the epidermis of the frog seeds, and then a thin tube is drilled out of the tongue to inject secretion into the subcutaneous secretion of the frog seeds. The secretion is extremely corrosive and dissolves the contact area into a liquid within seconds.

When the liquid gathers into a small pool, the mechanical grasshopper pops out its tongue, the tongue bulges outward, and the dorsum of the tongue rolls inward, forming a "J" shape, like a small spoon, scoop the organic liquid formed by the melting of the frog seeds into his mouth, and swallow it quickly (insert a digression: cute kittens, puppies, and big cats all drink water like this, not stick out their tongues and lick forward, but roll the tip of the tongue in the direction of the lower jaw, roll into a small spoon and scoop water to drink, people can't do it, because people's tongues are too short and thick, and they can't roll down 180 degrees).

A single insect can't dissolve much flesh and blood of the wonderful frog seeds, but there are too many mechanical grasshoppers that can't stand them, and the black pressure is like a plague of locusts! Those hanging up wonderful frog seeds are crawling with grasshoppers everywhere on their bodies, and every grasshopper is licking their flesh and blood, so that they melt faster than you can imagine!

Within a few dozen seconds, the flesh and blood of the frog seed had completely melted, leaving only the eight-clove garlic on its back. Those mechanical grasshoppers did not dislike it, and after licking the frog body part, they opened the mouthpiece and gnawed the plant part, and for a while, the sound of fine and dense clicking was endless, and people got goosebumps when they heard it.

In the process of eating these insects, a few people present finally knew what the purpose of the wonderful frog flower that had been moving all the time was!

Although these mechanical grasshoppers eat quickly, their little tongues stretch and contract, and their frequency and flexibility are comparable to those of Long Zelola, they still can't keep up with the speed at which the seeds of those wonderful frogs melt, and there is no way, the secretions in their mouthparts are too domineering. The excess, organic liquid that didn't lick into his mouth, naturally rained, like rain, on the wonderful frog flower below.

These organic fluids flow down the body of the frog flower, and before they land, they are licked by the long, thick, flexible tongue of the frog flower and sucked into their stomachs. For those places that the tongue can't reach, Miao Frog Flower stretches out its rattan whip to "wipe", very peculiarly, wherever it is rubbed by the rattan whip, those organic fluids fade at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon disappear.

In this process, Miao Frog Flower's face showed an expression of great enjoyment, and it was really difficult for her to have a frog face that could make her facial muscles make such complex movements. As the absorption progressed, the wonderful frog flower enjoyed more and more, probably too pleasant, the wonderful frog flower actually began to gently and rhythmically sway her body, opened her bloody mouth, and sang in a beautiful children's voice:

"The happy pond was planted,

Dreams become oceans!

Drum eyes and big mouth,

Sing loudly too!

Lend me a pair of little wings,

You can fly to the sun!

I believe

The miracle is here!

La-la!la-la-la~~

With you leap frog,

Happy little frog leap frog~~

There is a little frog in the happy pond~~~

......”

The super beautiful tune, the super charming voice, the magical lyrics, the magical movements, coupled with the magical singers, and the weak screams of the dying wonderful frog seeds, together form a surreal and absurd picture!

Silently listening to this song "Little Jumping Frog" (this song is very good, it is recommended to listen to it if you haven't heard it), several people didn't speak, and after a long time, Ling Mo pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed dryly:

"I didn't expect it...... This wonderful frog flower is so strong, it looks so fierce, it's actually Lolita!"

Zero & Yoshi & Mario: "......"

The point is not here at all, okay!!

After coughing several times, he could be regarded as suppressing the desire to complain in his heart, and Zero asked:

"Daddy, why did this wonderful frog flower do this, and why did she be as happy as a 20,000-ton child?"

"She's putting her own kind...... No, I should say that I think my own people are absorbed as nourishment, isn't it obvious?"

Ling Mo spread his hands and replied:

"As for why she is so happy, I don't know, probably because those wonderful frog seeds have high nutritional value and taste very good, they are fruit-flavored!"

β€œ......”

Choked by this statement, Zero shook his head and said:

"That's not what I mean, I'm asking, why does this wonderful frog flower eat its own people in this way?

Her strength is so strong, those wonderful frog seeds have no power to resist in front of her, isn't it okay to swallow them all one by one?

I see that her mouth is full of canine teeth, and she can't chew or chew, so why do you need those mechanical grasshoppers to help her melt the frog seeds......?

Realizing that his diction was a bit vulgar, Zero closed his mouth in time. Ling Mo was silent for a moment and said:

"When I was live in the Warcraft Rainforest before, I actually said that Warcraft will not eat its own people unless it is in very extreme circumstances.

This is not only because the appearance of the same race is highly similar to the monster itself, which will trigger its resistance, but more importantly, the flesh and blood of the same race contain too many proteins that can induce lesions in their bodies, and the prions that have a strong ability to destroy the nerve center are the main way of transmission is cannibalism.

Although the frog flower is a second-order evolution of the frog seed, it is still from the same source, and the genes are very close to each other. As Yoshi said, I haven't seen a single frog grass in this vicinity, which means that this frog flower did not evolve naturally, it is very likely to be "cultivated", the evolution time should be very short, the gene sequence will not be too stable, and she should be very afraid of being infected when she eats her own race.

Therefore, she thought of such a "clever trick", borrowing the strong corrosive digestive juice of those mechanical grasshoppers, and "treating" the same clan first, killing and sterilizing, and the danger of her eating it again was greatly reduced. ”

"That'sβ€”that's too ...... It's ......"

Zero was "too" for a long time, and she didn't find a suitable adjective, if she had her original mentality, she would probably say "cruel", but following Ling Mo's experience, she had already understood that the behavior of Warcraft was very inappropriate to evaluate with human morality.

Eventually, she said:

"I can only say that this wonderful frog flower is very smart. ”

"yes, smart, clever is a bit too much. ”

Ling Mo's eyes stared at those mechanical grasshoppers who were "full of wine and food" and were dancing the figure-8 dance around the wonderful frog flower, and said lightly:

"It's not just as simple as letting the mechanical grasshopper disinfect itself first, this wonderful frog flower also knows to use its own stomach to digest its fellow people as little as possible!

You know? Those rattan whips that flew out of the frog flower were actually her roots! To be precise, the roots of her plant part, the tree with the overlord flower!

Unlike animals, the vast majority of plants are distributed in groups of the same kind, and for them, it is a natural thing for them to absorb the nutrients formed by the same family after the death of the surrounding species, and will not produce any diseases at all!

You listen to her singing, carefully experience her childish mentality, to use a human analogy, it is about four or five years old. At this age, let alone a magical beast, even if it is a human being, it is impossible to have such a careful thinking and make such a careful action!

This shows that this wonderful frog flower is not a natural creation, but some kind of experimental object! Someone "prescribed" or "induced" her to do so!

Hehe, the technical level that can create a seventh-level peak demonic beast, Zero, there is definitely an evil organization around here that is not inferior in strength and evil to your mother's religion!"

Zero: "......"

Ah, although his mother religion obeyed the sect and was directly labeled as a "stronger evil organization" by his father, he felt a little uncomfortable, but when he heard that his mother religion was not the only "strong evil organization" in the world, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and he was a little happy.

Is this the legendary mentality of being worse than bad?

Somewhat ashamed of his thoughts, in order to divert his attention, Zero hurriedly spoke:

"Judging from this wonderful frog flower, this evil organization is already very powerful, we can't let them continue and harm more lives, Dad, let's go and destroy them!"

Ling Mo: "??!"

Stunned for a moment, he said with some tears and laughter:

"Zero, I didn't say you, you yourself are the candidate saintess of the "strongest evil organization in the mainland", how can you be embarrassed to say such things as "go and destroy other evil organizations"?

You still honestly complete Diriji's task, obtain its inheritance, and then hurry back to shoot the dead mushroom saintess, and transform your mother religion is the right thing!

Besides, it is also a "scourge of more lives", how can your attitude towards your mother religion be reformed, while you will exterminate other cult organizations without even asking their names?

This double standard is too powerful, isn't it?"

"After all, it's my mother's religion! I grew up in the sect, and many elders have given me meticulous care, so naturally I have a deep affection for the sect.

Because I first met my Headless Horseman form, my father's first impression of me was a little different from my actual image.

Zero is me, and the Headless Horseman is also me, but as an undead Headless Horseman, it is just one of my obsessions, or my "pure saint" side. But I'm not just a saint, I'm a saint who obeys the sect. As the fusion of "Zero" and "Headless Horseman" deepens, I am now getting closer and closer to the personality of my previous life.

What Dad sees now is the real me, the real "Joan of Arc". ”

Zero said as a matter of course, seeing the somewhat constipated expression on Ling Mo's face, she smiled a little embarrassedly:

"Okay, okay, since Dad said so, I'll ask with compassion, what is the name of this evil organization that is not inferior to ours in strength?"

"I'm not very clear, there are too few clues, only some technical traces for me to deduce. ”

Ling Mo stared at Miao Frog Flower with his super strong eyes, analyzing every detail, and said slowly:

"There are traces of physical transformation, but not too much, not too obvious, more inclined to spiritual transformation, this kind of "cognitive bias" transformation, I feel very familiar.

If I hadn't given birth to a new large-scale transnational evil organization during the years I was recuperating in the Warcraft Rainforest, then I guess this wonderful frog flower should have come from the handiwork of the Sky Splitting Sect......"

"Sect of the Split Sky?!!

I'm going to destroy those heretics!!"

As soon as Ling Mo's words fell, Zero couldn't wait to shout out, which showed the depth of the grievances between the Obedience Sect and the Sky Splitting Sect:

"When we met those hanged ghosts on the beach before, Dad still remembers, right? From those Sky Splitting Sect disciples, we can see the paranoia and danger of the Sky Splitting Sect's teachings!

They always come up with a lot of rules and precepts that they don't have for torturing people's farts, and they not only have to abide by themselves, but also force others to obey them from the bottom of their hearts, which is called "cleansing mankind of the original sin" on the surface, but in fact they are trying to control others on a spiritual level! As far as I know, three hundred years ago, they tried to control all mankind from the soul!

This sect is too dangerous!

Suppress!

The Split Sky Sect must be suppressed at any time!

No, no!

Dad, think about it, you took your wife out of the city, eating hot pot and singing, and suddenly you were ......"

When he heard the sentence "You bring your wife", Ling Mo's face darkened, and when he noticed that the zero number of this detail was secretly not good, he was annoyed and at the same time, he hurriedly forcibly changed the topic:

"All in all, it's the ghosts of those Sky Splitting Cultists!No wonder Daddy's face was so bad when he saw Miao Frog Flower's behavior just now!Let's go and destroy them quickly!"

"It's not because of the wonderful frog flower, it's because I see those mechanical bugs, that I have a bad face. ”

Glaring at Zero, Ling Mo's brows furrowed into a Sichuan character, and with deep worry, he said:

"The wonderful frog flower and these mechanical grasshoppers can be so harmonious, it has already constituted a "mutually beneficial symbiosis" relationship in Warcraft.

Whether it is mechanical life or cyborg life in Molten City, unless it is in a combat state, theoretically it should not come into contact with continental creatures. But now, there is such a close relationship between natural creatures and cybernal life, and in a sense, the mechanical grasshopper has been integrated into the ecological chain of the Insect Harmony Mountains!

Do you know what that means?

It means that this is an attempt by the Golden Fortress to fundamentally change the life forms of all living beings on the continent of Noahfa!"

PS: Happy New Year 2020! The first day of the new year, it is also Xiao Hei's wedding anniversary, unfortunately I am not at home, I can't spend it with the object, in this wonderful day, I still insist on updating, Xiao Hei is really working hard!
