Chapter 11: Omnivorous Slimes and Mimics
Creek side.
Using his water control skills, Zheng Ming, who rushed out of the water after diving into the water to fish, was pressed to the ground by Lucy as soon as he landed.
"You're alone? In vain I consider you a companion. You're good, you're good at swimming, and you're well fed under the water, and let me watch from the shore. ”
From the extremely disgusted action of Lucy, who was extremely disgusted with wet hair, and pressed a paw on Zheng Ming's body full of water droplets, you can imagine her anger at this time.
It's no wonder that Lucy is angry, Zheng Ming obviously said that he would catch fish for it to eat, but after entering the water, he couldn't help but say that he swallowed it all by himself, and anyone would be angry. Not to mention Lucy, who loves fish the most?
I watched my beloved little fish be swallowed up by a nasty slime, and there was not even a single bone left. Lucy only felt that she had experienced the most painful period of her life, and that her level of pain was still in the top three of her long cat life.
"Calm down. Calm down. Your fish are in my hands, and if you still want to see them, take your sharp claws back. ”
Let's ignore Zheng Ming's bad line like a robber, in fact, Lucy misunderstands it. It really wanted to go into the water to catch fish for Lucy out of good intentions. As for why there is a scene of Zheng Ming swallowing alone in Lucy's eyes, there is actually a reason.
Zheng Ming had awakened the ability to store space before, and this ability was like Zheng Ming's stomach pouch. It can store all the objects devoured by Zheng Ming. The difference is only whether Zheng Ming chooses to only store energy after swallowing the object, or whether he swallows the whole thing into the storage space.
Zheng Ming, who originally had no hands and feet, just wanted to swallow the fish he caught first and take them out after he landed. Unexpectedly, it led to Lucy's misunderstanding.
Hearing Zheng Ming's shout, Lucy jumped up in surprise. While touching Zheng Ming, he urged eagerly: "What do you mean?" You left one for me? Where is it hidden? Take it out? ”
Ignoring Lucy, who was doing something to herself, Zheng Ming opened his mouth calmly. I saw that its originally small mouth suddenly became like a Pac-Man, and live fish poured out of its big mouth.
"How can I have it to myself? You see, not a single one is missing. ”
Lucy looked at the fresh fish on the rocks with their tails wagging and jumping, and pounced forward with a look of surprise on her face. Then when he put his mouth down, he stiffened as if he remembered something, and finally looked at Zheng Ming with a complicated face.
"These ...... All you just swallowed? ”
"That's right."
"These are for me?"
"Well, so to speak. We eat together. ”
"These are coming out of your mouth?"
"That's right. Didn't you just see that? ”
What Zheng Ming didn't expect was that Lucy didn't start eating immediately, but instead showed a tangled expression of covetousness and disgust.
"You're disgusting. Do you have to swallow such a cute and delicious little fish in your mouth and then spit it out? You see, they must be covered in your body fluids! ”
“。。。”
Seeing that Lucy was still there fighting between heaven and man, he couldn't help but poke his head down, and forced himself to push his head back with his front paws. Zheng Ming chuckled lightly and opened his mouth to persuade him.
"Hey, hey, hey. You can rest assured. If they had touched my bodily fluids, they would have been left with no scum left. Those were the original streams. ”
"Really?"
"Of course. I swear by my character, and if I tell a lie, I will be thrown into a strange world again. ”
What Zheng Ming didn't know at this time was. In this world where powerful individuals are allowed, and there are even people who are called gods who are called gods by merging into the laws of the world through their spirits, all the oaths will be detected by the world laws that carry the rules in this regard, and if they are violated, they will be fulfilled according to the oath.
Therefore, life here will not swear at will unless it is absolutely necessary. In short, in this world, you have to think twice before you act.
Lucy saw that Zheng Ming had sworn a poisonous oath, so she was relieved. I saw it walking in front of Zheng Ming with elegant cat steps with a smile on its face, rubbing Zheng Ming's face with its head, and meowing sweetly.
"Can I still distrust you? Is it okay to catch fish for me every day in the future? Xiaoming~, you're so nice. You are the best. I like you the most. ”
Before Zheng Ming could enjoy the cat's coquettishness, Lucy couldn't help but show a disgusted expression, turned her head and hugged her head that was drenched with water droplets on Zheng Ming's body, and licked it with her front paws.
“!!!。。。”
Seeing Zheng Ming's injured expression, Lucy, who was lying on the ground and was busy straightening her hair, raised her head and said vaguely, "That...... Don't get me wrong. I just don't like getting my hair wet. I still like you the most. Remember to catch fish for me every day~. ”
Zheng Ming: "... ”
…………
Finally, after Lucy straightened her hair and Zheng Ming cleaned up her mood, the living treasure duo stood in front of the fish pile that was pushed together.
I hadn't noticed it when I swallowed the storage space in my body before, but when Zheng Ming looked at the fish in front of him and realized that this was the food he wanted to eat, he began to feel embarrassed.
Although after a period of time, these fish that have escaped from the water have basically not moved, it is still too difficult for Zheng Mingsheng, who was a human in his previous life, to swallow these fish alive.
Lucy ...... How to eat this? How did you eat before? ”
"What to eat? That's it. ”
Lucy said, "Are you stupid?" Even to be taught to eat? He picked up a fish nearby and ate it deliciously.
"I don't even have a tooth to bite? It's okay, it's not too bloody. It's okay to swallow it up. It's not that I haven't eaten sashimi in my previous life, so I thought I ate sashimi before I cut it. ”
After Zheng Ming comforted himself in his heart, he swallowed the fish in front of him. At this time, the fish that had been out of the stream for a long time was already on the verge of death, and the vitality barrier that was already small and could not compete with Zheng Ming became even weaker. So much so that Zheng Ming didn't exert much force, and successfully devoured and dissolved it.
[Evolved into a carnivorous system, changed to an omnivorous line due to the previous evolution of the herbivorous system.] 】
[Eating an animal for the first time.] Comprehend mimicry. Evolutionary mimetic morphology can be perfected by devouring allispecies animals. 】
"Huh? This voice again? This time it's a little more detailed than before. Feed. Who are you? Can you communicate with me? ”
"What are you doing? Who are you talking to? ”
"Ahh It's okay. You keep eating. ”
"Oh, good."
“。。。”
Seeing that Lucy quickly lost interest, she concentrated on destroying the food in front of her, and no longer paid attention to herself. Zheng Ming smiled helplessly and began to study his newly acquired abilities.
Omnivorous. As the name suggests, it means that energy can be obtained by devouring animals and plants.
As for what exactly does this new realization's mimesis mean?
Zheng Ming: "Transformation~." ”
Seeing Zheng Ming shouting, Lucy, who was busy eating, raised her head and glanced at it.
Zheng Ming: "Simulacrum~." ”
Lucy raised her head again and stole a glance at Zheng Ming. Unlike just now, this time he didn't stop his mouth.
Zheng Ming: "Isn't that right? Is it a pose? ”
Zheng Ming muttered for a while, lying on the ground like a salted fish, trying to put his body into a fusiform shape.
Zheng Ming: "Transformation~............ Simulacrum~. ”
Lucy on the side finally couldn't help it, and yelled at Zheng Ming, "Are you sick?" Is there an end? Still eating? ”
Zheng Ming, who was reprimanded by Lucy, waited for a while and found that there was still no change, so he had to give up trying and walk to the fish pile.
It mumbled as it stuffed the fish into its mouth.
"According to the law that a move must be shouted, it should be right to shout out. Since it is said that he has comprehended the mimicry, it should be just shouting the mimic. ”
As he spoke, he picked up another fish, and the image of the fish naturally came to mind. At the same time, the word mimetic was just said in the mouth. . .
