In the end, when Solam left, he was still not at ease, and set a fire, for fear that there would be fish that slipped through the net in those corpses and pieces of meat, and tried not to let go of any eggs. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"You say, why are those bugs preparing so many gold mines? I can understand so many corpses and pieces of flesh. Sim happily played with a gold mine, which was said to be a gold mine, but in fact there was nothing wrong with calling it dog's head gold.

"Who knows, maybe they like to collect these shiny things too." Fia was also holding a small gold nugget, and her big eyes narrowed into a slit with joy, and at this time, she didn't care about the gold nuggets, which were taken out from under those disgusting corpses.

"I don't know, but I do know that the Diggers are not interested in collecting treasure, they are only interested in food. Maybe we've discovered a new kind of monster. "Maris is a little unsure if these monsters have anything to do with the Diggers, after all, there are still many differences between the two.

For example, although the burrower does not have good eyesight, it still has eyes, but it is a compound eye. This monster has no eyes at all, let alone compound eyes, and its head has no organs that can be called eyes.

"Actually, I'm a little guessing, I think these strange insects must have nothing to do with the digging insects, maybe they are transformed by the digging insects." Solam thinks these strange insects have a lot to do with the digging insects.

"Why do you say that?" Maris was curious about Soram's guesses, after all, Soram was a mage, and he might be able to spot something that they hadn't noticed.

"Have you noticed that the heads of those strange insects, the part of the eyes that are equivalent to the eyes, have obvious protrusions?" Solam didn't directly say the guess, but turned around and asked them.

Fia is also interested in this question, and although it may not be useful, it is not a bad thing to learn more.

"Well, I noticed, I noticed when we unshelled."

Sim: When they were unwrapping, Fia and Mares came over to help, although Mares's hands were not strong at the time, but it was still possible to guide them to unwrap the shell. After all, he has a lot of experience, and it's better than the clumsy mess of Soram and Sim.

"Well, I think that's their eyes, but they must have gone through some mutations before their eyes disappeared."

"Does that have anything to do with what you just said?" Fia was curious about what the two had to do with each other.

"Maybe there is, maybe not. But if we take that as an eye, will these giant insects be more like digging insects? Soram's question about Fia was ambiguous, and instead asked about something else.

As the only person here who had actually seen what a digging worm looked like, Maris thought for a moment and realized that the two really resembled a lot if Soram said. "That's right, when you say that, they're like a lot."

"Then let's think about their carapaces, whether they are more like metal than ordinary insect shells." When they disassembled those carapaces, they tried those carapaces, and they did look like metal. Both in terms of luster and hardness, those carapaces are very similar to metal, and they are also metallic when they are struck.

"yes, yes." Fia didn't rush to question Soram this time, she knew that Soram must have something to say.

"That's it, what can you think of when you think of the fact that they have so much gold in their nests, and they've been moving around the veins."

"You mean, those bugs are eating those metal ???" Maris had seen some of the world, so he was more open-minded, and he immediately thought about it.

"How is this possible?" Fia and Sim both screamed, this statement was so shocking that even Sim, who had never cared about this, screamed.

"What's impossible? It's not that there are monsters in this world that can eat metal. Mares asked rhetorically, he had heard of monsters that could eat metal, such as dragons, and many dragons could eat metal, and some wyverns could do it, such as the tooth dragon.

"yes, what's impossible, as long as you can digest it, do you think the acid of those giant insects can't melt those metals? What's more, these bugs will live near the ore veins, and they also collect so much gold ore, which can show that these bugs are likely to eat metal. ”

The more primitive life is, the less likely it is to do anything that has nothing to do with survival, and if these insects really don't need metal, they won't lie here, after all, this place is no better than being in the dirt, it's hard to die, and it's not easy to dig.

Those giant insects, wouldn't they have come to this ghost place just to eat some kobolds, kobolds don't taste good, and they don't have a few taels of meat. With their strength, they can go out and hunt better prey.

"Their carapaces wouldn't have become like this if they hadn't absorbed so many metal elements, so I think these bugs are coming for these metals."

"But what does this have to do with the Diggers?" Fia remembered what Soram said at the beginning, and Soram talked for a long time, but he still didn't get to the point.

"Of course there is, after figuring out this, we can guess that those bugs are different from ordinary digging insects, because they need different things, their feet are thicker than those of digging insects, that is, they dig harder soil and rocks, their jaws are short, and it is also because of this, after all, too big jaws are too easy to break when digging metal."

Soram organized his words again and continued.

"And those corpses and carrion, this is very similar to the habits of the digging insects, uncle, you also know that the digging insects will also collect some prey and put them next to the eggs after laying eggs. Because eggs need temperature to hatch, but where to find temperature in the ground, you can only rely on the heat emitted by those prey when they decay. And when these eggs hatch, you can also use these carrion as food. ”

"Hmm." Don't look at Mares's promise very simply, but he really doesn't know this, but in order not to show his timidity, he can only pretend to know.

"You see, those giant worms put gold ore next to the eggs, so that their young can eat them, just like those carrions. This is even more proof that these giant insects eat metal. If we speculate on these things in reverse, we can find that these giant insects have a lot to do with the digging insects, not only do they look very similar, but they also have similar habits. “

When Fia heard this, she kind of believed Solam, but there was still a lot she didn't understand. "How did those giant worms come to be like this? And how do their eyes disappear? How can they eat metal? ”

"Then how do I know, the devil knows what they went through, maybe it was naturally mutated, maybe it was man-made. That's not something I can know. Although Soram was also curious about this, he didn't have a clue after thinking about it for a long time, after all, this world is so wonderful.

"Natural variation? Artificial? What do you mean? "Fia has finally learned these days how important an adventurer's experience is, so when she encounters something she doesn't know, she wants to figure it out.

"Natural mutation is very simple, that is, those insects suddenly began to mutate, and there are thousands of reasons for that, it's hard to say why they are like this, maybe it's just a sleep, maybe it's the living environment that changes." Solam is a bit of a good teacher, in fact, most people have a little bit of this plot, and like to explain something to others, which is a manifestation of vanity, which is human nature.

"As for man-made, it's that these giant insects may have been transformed by mages with necromantic spells. But if that's the case, how did these bugs get here? Is there a mage tower around here? ”

"Mage Tower? No, I remember it very well, why ask this? And necromancy spells can still do this? I've heard that necromantic spells resurrect corpses or something, and they're all spells related to necromantic creatures. "Fia is going to break the casserole today.

Solam didn't bother her, he always thought it was good to be inquisitive. "Didn't you? That's strange, it's impossible for such a high-level creature transformation not to be carried out in the mage tower. As for what you said about necromancy, it was pure prejudice. Although it is true that many necromantic spells are about necromantic creatures, in fact, many of the spells in this series are related to life research, such as biological transformation, such as life extension, etc., don't follow the crowd in the future. However, if you encounter a necromantic mage in the future, you should stay away, and those people will be chattering. ”

"Didn't you just say that it was prejudice?"

"What I'm saying is that you are prejudiced against necromantic spells, but those mages who specialize in necromancy, you have to be careful, generally this kind of mage is not kind, a little neurotic, don't provoke this kind of person."

In fact, this is all implicit in Solam's words, in fact, there are few good people who specialize in mages in the necromantic system, because these mages have to do a lot of live experiments, and they are basically crazy people who don't treat people as people.

Make big news at every turn, either to create some monsters, or to study some terrible viruses, and the spells they use are either directly killing people, or they are worse than death. Regardless of their personality, these people are dangerous.

"Fia, you must listen to Soram on this point, if you encounter such a person in the future, you will hide far away." When Mares heard this, she hurriedly instructed Fia. In fact, he didn't know why Soram would say that, after all, he rarely met mages. In his heart, mages are dangerous, and Soram is also half a mage, and even if he says so, those mages must be very dangerous.

"Oh, I know!" Although I don't know what Soram's necromantic mage looks like, Fia heard what Soram and Maris said, so she quickly agreed.
