Chapter 282: Two Hundred Miles Under the Sea (Part II)
A large clump of disgusting meat erupted from the chrysanthemum-shaped mouth, the starfish's blow was really not fast, and even under the resistance of the underwater current, with the eyesight of Ling Mo and the others, they could clearly see the waves of undercurrents stirred up by the lump of meat in the water. But for some reason, in the face of this theoretically non-threatening blow, the Ragdoll Bear did not avoid it at all.
The lump of flesh was still clumped together when it came out of the starfish's mouth, and when it reached the Ragdoll Bear, it became a large, translucent film that covered the entire Ragdoll Bear's head. Pink, elastic, and smooth on the outside, like a stray coat from a pig's large intestine, and uneven on the inside, covered with neat and dense flagella. Under the capture of the high-definition camera, you can clearly see that the front ends of those flagella are constantly secreting pale black mucus, and the flowing ragdoll bears are all over their faces. At the same time, the flagella were still sweeping back, dragging the ragdoll bear towards their chrysanthemum mouth with all their might.
This is the starfish's way of predation, completely entangled the prey with its clumps of wrists and feet, so that it cannot move at all, and then spit out its stomach from its mouth and threw it onto the prey with a pop," Ling Mo's explanation sounded at the right time, but no matter how it sounded, there was a malice in this voice:
"Don't underestimate the grip of the starfish's brachiopods, which are also creatures that prey on brachiopods (tentacles), and at the same size, the starfish's grip is much stronger than that of both squid and octopus! The starfish's staple food is a variety of shellfish, once its strong brachiopods are wrapped around the prey, it will use tens of thousands of suction cups to suck the surface of the prey tightly, and at the same time forcibly pull to the sides, can easily pull the shells of giant mussels and scallops, and then eat their soft internal organs. ”
Zero ......had an embarrassed expression on his face: "Although I think Dad's introduction is very detailed and in place, Zero thinks that it would be better for us to rescue the bear from the stomach of the jewel starfish first?" Ah, it's bald again. ”
"This is normal, those pale black mucus is the digestive juice of the starfish, which is rich in digestive enzymes, and in order to prevent the shellfish from closing on its own, the starfish's digestive juice also has a strong anesthetic component, which can make the contraction creatine of the shell weak, and can no longer close the shell, so that the starfish can eat leisurely and slowly. Ling Mo praised Zero's meticulous observation, and then said with a smile:
"Don't worry, this starfish can't digest the ragdoll bear, after all, there is still a level gap. It can be regarded as a lesson for this ragdoll bear, and see if it dares to ignore anything for food in the future. ”
After finishing speaking, Ling Mo looked at little Tirpitz with a distressed, anxious, and somewhat impatient face, and reminded him with bad intentions: "I can see that you seem to want to save it?" Then I have to remind you, don't look at the starfish's stomach seems to be a thin layer of mucous membrane, but this membrane is the toughest thing on the starfish's body, tougher than its powerful wrists and feet, and it is difficult to get rid of it with conventional methods. ”
"The most important thing is that if the starfish is disturbed in the process of eating, it will frantically activate the emergency mechanism, and those inner flagella will secrete a huge amount of digestive juices in a very short time, and your dear bear brother will be covered in mush. It's hard to say if it's going to be okay then, but it's absolutely inevitable that all the hair will fall out. Hairless Ragdoll Bear, haha, this style may be a big seller!"
Hearing this, the muzzle of the cannon that Tirpitz Jr. had already raised fell down again, and the whole person fell into hesitation. However, when the Ragdoll Bear heard Ling Mo's words, his whole body trembled violently a few times, and he waved his hand at Little Tirpitz like crazy, signaling her not to mess around, and there was a posture that he would rather be eaten by the jewel starfish than get rid of the hair on his body.
At the same time, there was a faint glimmer on the Ragdoll bear's body, which should be an unknown means of protection, constantly fighting against the gastric juice of the jewel starfish. The two sides were at a stalemate for a while, and the jewel starfish seemed to realize that the prey swallowed could not be digested at all, and even if it could, it would be a little more than worth the loss, so it simply spit out the head of the ragdoll bear, and sucked the stomach pouch back into his mouth, and at the same time withdrew all the tentacles and released it.
As soon as he regained his freedom, instead of taking revenge on the jeweled starfish, the Ragdoll Bear bent down and vomited 'Wow Wow Wow'! The squid eggs he had just eaten were eaten for nothing, and now they turned into a half-digested flocculent fluid, gushing out of the Ragdoll Bear's mouth, making the sea water in a large area around him extremely muddy.
Zero and Tirpitz Jr. had disgusted looks on their faces at the same time, and involuntarily took two steps back, lest they be stuck to their bodies by the thing. Little Tirpitz took two steps back first, and suddenly felt that he was not very good, he should care about Brother Xiong, and wanted to step forward, but he was reluctant to wear his new clothes, so he couldn't help but get entangled in place. However, after letting go of the Ragdoll Bear, the jewel starfish, which had swam out for a long time with its wrists and feet, noticed the Ragdoll Bear's vomit, and swam back excitedly, with its mouth wide open, and its wrists and feet quickly rolled, filling all the Ragdoll Bear's vomit into its mouth.
"What's going on with this jewel starfish? Doesn't it mean that the jewel starfish is a very docile monster? It dances to me in a friendly way! Why does it attack me indiscriminately?"
"The stomach of this jewel starfish is too much, too smelly! Mrs. Mrs. is too stinky! That smell is a hundred times stronger than the vomit spit out by humans, even a mechanical monster like me, whose olfactory element is not very developed, can't stand it at all! Ah——! no! I can't stand it! I actually let me suffer such a seven-foot **, I want to break this gem starfish into ten thousand pieces!!"
After speaking, the Ragdoll Bear forcibly cheered up, got up from the seabed with a bone, and was about to rush over to find the jewel starfish desperately, but was pulled by Ling Mo:
"Being attacked is completely self-inflicted, right? For deep-sea sea monsters, under normal circumstances, you can't see 'furry' creatures, but once a certain creature starts to become hairy, like cotton wool, it means that it is dead, and even the corpse has begun to decompose to a high degree! In line with the principle of not wasting it, naturally a large number of sea monsters will come and swallow these fluffy flocculents into their stomachs. The jewel starfish is docile, but you are covered in hair, and in its 'eyes' is a lump of highly rotten organic matter, of course you have to pounce on it and eat it!"
Pointing to the jewel starfish that was eating the flocculent vomit of the ragdoll bear, Ling Mo continued: "What's more, there is one thing you completely misunderstood, the jewel starfish stretches out its tentacles at you, dancing back and forth is not really dancing at you, but measuring your size, to be precise, comparing the size gap between you and it, to see if it can swallow you in one bite......"
“...... In other words, I completely misunderstood its meaning, if I swam away while it stretched its wrists and feet, there would be no?!" Seeing Ling Mo nodding with a subtle smile, the Ragdoll Bear felt his anger rush to his brain, and roared like thunder on the spot: "This gem starfish has a sick brain, right?!I look so marked, where does it look like a piece of rotten organic matter?!"
"You're sick in the brain, right? This is a starfish, where did you get your brain?!"
Muppet Bear: "......"
He made so much sense that I was speechless.
When Ling Mo said this, the ragdoll bear choked for a moment, and the anger in his chest suddenly decreased a lot-yes, he was a high-level magical beast, what was it like to have a brainless gem starfish, this low-level echinoderm? Its face was cloudy, and it stared at the gem starfish that was eating leisurely not far away for a long time, and finally exhaled a breath of turbidity, waved its hand, and said:
"Forget it, my lord has a lot of them, spare the life of this gem starfish, and it really lost its identity for no reason......"
Hearing this, Zero was a little happy, stepped forward, and praised: "Little Bear can make this kind of decision, my sister is really happy! I am not a rigid person, whether it is killing between animals and plants for survival, or killing between humans for revenge and robbery, as long as there is a 'need', there is a reason that people can figure out, I will not hate it." But I hate killing 'beyond need', the pointlessness of killing for the sake of killing, and the creatures who do it deserve to be humanely destroyed!"
Hearing Zero's compliment, the Ragdoll Bear was a little embarrassed, and in order to hide his shame, he scratched his head - it was a condensation in his hand, and when he touched it, he knew that it was a scalp sewn from canvas and exposed it again.
Muppet Bear: "......"
Zero: "...... Calm down! My sister just praised you, you must be calm!"
"Kill it! I'm going to kill it!"
Realizing that he was bald again, the Ragdoll Bear's eyes instantly ignited with rage, and he wanted to rush to the side of the jewel starfish and break it to pieces!
Just as the two of them were entangled, the body of the jewel starfish, which continued to devour the squid's eggs not far away, suddenly began to swell irregularly! Every part of its body was changing in a big and small way, as if something was rushing back and forth violently in its body! Soon, its body was completely enlarged, and ten slender wrists and feet (tentacles) bulged one after another, looking like an inflatable five-pointed star.
It can be seen that the chrysanthemum mouth of the jewel starfish is open, the stomach is turned upside down, and it is shaking desperately, trying to spit something out of the body, but in the end it still does not succeed, and the red gem on the front of the body emits a flickering flicker, and finally 'bang', and explodes into a mosaic of indescribable shapes.
Seeing the tragic state of the Jewel Starfish, the Ragdoll Bear suddenly calmed down, and it and Zero quickly separated, each putting on a defensive posture, alerting to all movements around it - no way, the death of the Jewel Starfish was so abrupt that neither Zero, Ragdoll or Little Tirpitz noticed that it had been attacked in any way! But it exploded and died in this strange way!
It's terrifying!
Just when the three of them were facing a great enemy, Ling Mo's voice came from crying and laughing: "You guys...... What is this doing?"
"What are you doing?" Ragdoll Bear couldn't help but be stunned: "Although that jewel starfish is only a fourth-level demonic beast, this way of dying is completely beyond my cognition, there must be some terrible monsters around, hiding in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to attack us......"
"Where did you come from, what terrible monster? You were the one who killed the jewel starfish. ”
"Me?!" The Ragdoll Bear pointed to his nose, his face full of incredulity, especially when he saw that Zero and Little Tirpitz had a look on their faces, "Okay, you dead bear (Brother Bear) dare to lie to us, and even more hateful is that you still pretend to be quite similar", and even called out to hit the sky: "I didn't make a move at all, Miss Zero stopped me! Besides, my three-legged cat kung fu, if I make a move, can the energy fluctuations be hidden from you?"
It makes a lot of sense, not like it's lying. Zero and Tirpitz Jr. couldn't help but look at Ling Mo, waiting for his explanation. Ling Mo pointed to the belly of the ragdoll bear and said:
"Didn't you notice? The thing you vomited just now is actually mixed with the meat of the 'Gui Niu'! This thing has been cooked by me, and your stomach has undergone a preliminary decomposition, and it has become very easy for the organism to absorb. With your energy level, you can't hold up if you eat a small bowl of snail rice, the jewel starfish is just a fourth-level demonic beast, and suddenly eating the meat of a seventh-level demonic beast, a large amount of energy pours into the body, and the absorption is too fast and it is too late to use it, so it will naturally 'bang' and explode. ”
"In other words, this jewel starfish was actually strangled to death? This way of dying is too ......" The fact is so absurd that the three puppet bears couldn't help but fall silent, feeling a little blocked in their chests. Ling Mo didn't care too much:
"It's strange that you're all on land for a long time, even if it's little Tirpitz, whose main range of activity is the sea. In fact, in the deep sea, the phenomenon of being supported to death is quite common, especially after the death of some large-scale high-level demonic beasts, its rotten body tissues float around along the ocean current, and there are countless marine demonic beasts that have been supported to death after being eaten by mistake. ”
After all, they both belong to Warcraft, and after listening to this explanation, Ragdoll Bear and Tirpitz Jr. quickly adjusted their mentality. Noticing that Zero was still a little unable to let go and fell into deep thought, Ling Mo thought about it, walked over and shook it in front of her eyes, and said:
"Hey, come back to your senses! Don't think about it so much, it's just the daily life of Warcraft. If you really feel uncomfortable, how about eating something delicious? I'll take you looking for wolf eels, right?"
After waking up from his contemplation, Zero only heard the second half of Ling Mo's words, and immediately blushed, and said in a hurry:
"Daddy is going to take me in search of romance? I—I'm willing, but it's not a mess...... Zero thinks this behavior is a bit bad, but he still can't hold back the ardent expectations in his heart!"
Ling Mo: "......"
