Chapter 261: Egg and Lizard Frenzy
After putting away the samples he had collected, Evan glanced around and found that the rest were all the same, and the biodiversity of the film world was obviously far less abundant than that of the material world.
"Let's go, let's go deeper. ”
With the advance reconnaissance of the seabirds and the advantage of intelligence, the three of them walked all the way without encountering any accidents.
In fact, there are no surprises in the seemingly large atoll itself, and it can even be said that it is a little too calm!
It took almost an hour to cover most of the island with the physical strength of three extraordinary knights.
Strangely, although a lot of plants with strong film characteristics have been collected, not a single animal has been seen.
The only thing that is special is that the island is full of large and small translucent obsidian, and there are traces of lava cooling after the eruption, and this place looks like a volcanic island formed by a volcanic eruption.
Later, a very small, sulfur-smelling volcanic hot spring was found on the island, confirming their suspicions.
But even if it's a volcanic island, it's not only plants and no animals, right?
"Could it be that all the animals that live on the island ran into the sea on the other side of the Shadow World before the invasion of the 'Black Causeway'?
Evan had his seabirds scouted several times, but still found nothing.
However, Evan had seen some signs of gnawing on some of the plants before, proving that there should have been some kind of animal living here.
Milan, who was next to her, knew it was time to play for herself again.
"I'll try!"
Turning a blind eye to the obvious traces of biological activity on the island was not their original purpose for exploring the island.
Moreover, the "Storm Horn" will stay here for a day or so, and the unknown otherworldly creatures are always an uncertain risk factor.
So, hearing Milan's volunteer, Evan nodded and let him cast the spell with peace of mind.
Milan took out a pendulum with an amethyst pendant adorned with a silver chain, and when looking for something in person, the pendulum, a psychic instrument, was obviously more efficient and direct than a crystal ball.
First, he put the amethyst pendant in the palm of his hand with both hands and prayed silently:
"Find the place with the strongest vitality on this island!"
Then carry the silver chain in one hand, and let the amethyst pendant hang down naturally.
dep
The ethereal mantra echoes with the spiritual world, echoing like a valley, and the invisible wind penetrates the two worlds, subtly connecting the information tributaries and pendulums that extend from the spiritual world.
【Witchcraft: Spirit Detection】
In an instant, the diamond-shaped amethyst emitted a purple glow that could only be seen in spiritual vision. As if being dragged by an invisible hand, it rotated on its own, and after three rotations, it slowly pointed in one direction.
"Yes, follow me!"
Excitedly greeting Evan and Gary, Milan had already taken the lead in running in the direction where the three had come.
Near the inner ring of the atoll, just a few hundred meters from the innermost lagoon, stands a huge opaque obsidian.
Compared to the other stones on the island, this four-meter-tall stone is almost like a small mountain, and even if you walk through the entire atron, you may not find a few pieces.
Follow Ling's group to the obsidian.
"The most obvious life reaction on the island is here!"
As she spoke, Milan stretched out her fingers, soaked in spiritual light, and gently touched the bottom of the giant obsidian upwards to a fifth.
Sting!
The sound of paper tearing sounded in my ears.
In fact, nothing changed on this obsidian, but in front of the eyes of the three people, it seemed that a pitch-black curtain had been torn off at once, and the vision immediately became different.
At this time, I looked at the obsidian, especially the place where Milan had just clicked with his hand, and there was a dark hole about the size of a basin.
syllable
Without Evan commanding, Milan had snapped his fingers and released a ball of light created by illumination, completely illuminating the inside of the cave.
"Oh, it's an egg, no wonder life is so weak. ”
Under the white light, there was a solitary ball of pure black eggs the size of a volleyball lying in the hole.
Even in the bright light, there was not the slightest reflection, and the three of them could only spot it because it was darker than the obsidian around it.
None of them had ever actually seen the so-called shadow creatures before.
Even if he is a rich and handsome "wizard" among the transcendental, as long as he does not have the ability to travel in the plane, it is basically impossible to intersect with the film world in this life.
For most transcendents, shadow and shadow creatures are more like a distant legend.
Of course, they also have very limited understanding of the habits and characteristics of shadow creatures.
Even for Aven, who had copied half of the library, the biology of the other world was beyond the limits of his knowledge system. There may be one in the depths of the library, but it is not within his reach at the moment.
But the peculiar way of hiding this egg opened their minds all at once.
"You say there's an egg hidden by the Shadow Barrier, don't you?"
Reaching out and taking out the black egg, he gently stroked the smooth and hard eggshell like a jade.
Aiwen's gaze was slightly solemn, looking at the countless obsidian stones on the island!
Phew!
Phew!
But it wasn't Milan and Gary who responded to him, but a series of strange cries.
The shattering of this small piece of "shadow barrier" is like poking a big hornet's nest.
The sun is just right at this time.
But in the shadows cast by every stone on the island, a pair of ruby-like eyes suddenly opened, followed by a continuous "whoop" sound, more dense and manic than the countless frogs in the pond in summer!
Then, countless folded skin lizards with a body length of more than two meters, spikes on their backs and forked tongues scurried out of the shadows of the island and rushed in the direction of the three people without hesitation.
The world is vast, and even many creatures in the material world have not been named, let alone creatures from other worlds, so let's call them "shadow lizards" for the time being.
These "shadow lizards" charged as they instinctively changed their shapes, turning into normal animals in the material world under the sun.
If a "shadow lizard" slows down as it passes through the shadows, it will slowly turn into a thin shadow and melt into it, as if it is a gradient of the world in 3D and 2D.
Perhaps this is just an instinctive talent for most creatures in the shadow world, but it is already an incomprehensible and difficult skill for humans living in the material world.
It is conceivable that when they are in a state of shadowing, if there is no corresponding transcendent means, even the shelling of large-caliber artillery may not be able to hurt these visitors from the other world!
"Wow!"
Looking at the rolling black torrent, Milan, the initiator, opened his mouth wide and spit out an interjection in a daze.
"Wow, that's a hairy, run!"
After scolding, Evan picked up Milan and ran in the direction of the longboat, the tide is like an enemy who can't see the head at all, even if it is all ordinary big lizards, they can't bear it!
Not to mention the visitors from the other world who are obviously demonic creatures!
For these knights and low-level wizards who don't have a wide range of attacks, this large number of mobs is even more difficult than the "Guandi BOSS", and if they are accidentally submerged, they will be finished.
At this time, they had already understood that it was not the "masters" of the island who happened to leave before the "Black Causeway" invaded the material world.
Rather, because they suddenly came to a world full of sunlight, these "shadow creatures" who were not adapted to the lighting environment chose to hide in the shadows that made them feel more comfortable.
It wasn't until Milan punctured the shadow barrier that hid the egg that the giant lizards woke up.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The three of them jumped onto the longboat as fast as they could, as Gary and Milan picked up the oars and rowed desperately.
Evan had already scattered a handful of seeds like jujube pits, and then chanted a motivating spell in a loud voice:
flo
The lively mantra resonates strongly with the natural energies that are everywhere in this world.
Syllable!
Vibrant green in an extraordinary aura.
A handful of pig iron-like jujube pits exploded in an instant, and countless black thorns grew and hardened rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, it had grown into a thorny jungle tens of meters wide on the shore, with dense spikes and cold light, no less than the iron spear.
Hiss!
The speed of the thorn's explosive growth is so fast that it even emits a snake-like shrill hiss when it pierces the air!
According to the Rite of Flesh and Blood, the first great wizard to develop the plant "Black Thorn" has already used its lethality to the extreme.
A single seed can create a forest of thorns that stretches for kilometers.
At the same time, this is also the precursor to the exclusive [Martial Arts and Black Thorn Forest] of the "Living Chemical School"!
Phew!
Piercing chirps.
The "shadow lizards" that are rushing in like a tide are already close at hand.
