Chapter 151: The Death Knight and the Nest of Demon Worms (Part II)
Watching the Death Knight fight the centipede demon, Systham felt something strange.
As long as the normal centipede demons are within twenty meters of each other, they will take the initiative to fight.
These centipede demons that suddenly poured out of the ground did not fight each other, and were able to attack the death knight together, obviously controlled by worm demons.
The facts also confirmed Systham's thoughts.
As the Death Knight fights the Centipede Demon, a continuous burst of flames explodes......
The 2.5-meter-tall insect demon uses the power of fire to sneak up on it, blasting the Death Knight off the skeleton and horse to the side.
However, the Death Knight was not seriously injured by the blast, and after shaking his head, the Death Knight regrouped his fighting stance.
Because he didn't dare to get close enough to observe, Systm couldn't use his [Exploration Analysis] ability to find out the combat power of these two creatures.
Heatham could only roughly observe, and the battle between the Worm Demon and the Death Knight seemed to have a slight upper hand for the Death Knight to do so.
It's only because some centipede demons that spring up from the ground often sneak attack the death knight, that the battle between the insect demon and the death knight is in a stalemate.
A few minutes later, just as Heatham looked into the distance to see if there was a threat around him, and by the time he could turn his gaze back, the Death Knight's sword had slashed off the head of the worm demon to the ground.
With the death of the insect demon, the surviving centipede demons around immediately became a mess and began to fight each other.
The Death Knight also paid no attention to these centipede demons, who only knew how to kill, and his white sword gradually appeared with a layer of black light, and further destroyed the already collapsed underground space, diving into the underground cavernous passage.
Because he could only watch from afar in the sky, Systham didn't know what was going on underground with the Death Knight.
Ten minutes later, the Death Knight leapt from the underground space and onto the ground.
He stretched out his right hand, and showed a very handsome blue light, and a brand new blue fire skeleton warhorse appeared from the void in front of the death knight.
Stepping aboard the brand-new skeletal warhorse, the Death Knight sped away.
The previous skeleton horse that was scattered due to the centipede demon attack was instantly shattered into ordinary broken bones and scattered all over the ground at the same time as the death knight's new war horse appeared.
Looking at the Death Knight as he faded away, Systham didn't choose to follow, but decided to explore the underground space.
If Sistm's guess is correct, then this should be the centipede demon lair that Sistm has been searching for a long time but has not been able to find.
Seeing that the Death Knight had already traveled some distance, Systm flew south.
Five kilometers away from him, where Shava was waiting, Sistemm decided to take Shava with him to the worm's lair.
In fact, Systham's pursuit of the Death Knight was only improvised, and Shava was not taken with him during his previous routine rounds.
However, because Sava has the ability to sense him, as long as he finds that he is too far away and has not returned for a long time, Sava will take the initiative to rush in his direction.
It is precisely because of this that in the process of tracking the Death Knight, Systham asked Shava to keep a distance of 5 kilometers from him, and took care to hide so as not to be discovered by the Death Knight.
……
Although the death knight is gone, there are still some small demon centipedes in the soil of the demon worm's nest, a few centimeters and ten or twenty centimeters, because of the loss of the control of the insect demon, these small demon centipedes are frantically biting each other.
Systham knew that unless these centipede demons were able to grow into a three-meter giant centipede after biting and devouring each other, there would only be one winner for these demon centipedes that bit each other.
Heatham also paid no attention to these centipede demons, which generally did not attack other creatures until they finished killing each other.
Sistemm gradually moved to the scattered bones of the skeleton warhorse, reaching out his tentacles to pick up a broken bone and placing it in his mouth.
However, Systm quickly spat the broken bones out of his mouth.
Compared with the flesh on the zombies, the smell of the blue fire skeleton war horse is more serious, and it is several times more unpalatable than the meat on the zombies.
Heatham even developed the feeling of wanting to rinse his mouth with water.
It seems that this pure undead creature he simply cannot use as food.
Looking away from the broken bones, Sixmutem looked at the reddish-brown flesh roots in the dirt that resembled tree roots.
The flesh roots may seem soft, but they are actually very hard, and Sistham's [teleportation] can feel the faint emotion in this flesh, which has a plant-like feeling.
Heatham tore off a small piece of flesh and placed it in his mouth.
Although it is still sweet and spicy, the taste is very light and light, and the taste is the difference between meat and plants.
The flesh formed dense roots that were firmly rooted in the soil, as if absorbing nutrients from the soil.
Systham saw that when some of the Centipede Demon's blood was stuck to the roots, he would absorb the Centipede Demon's blood in a short period of time.
And if the corpse of a centipede demon appears next to these flesh roots, these flesh roots will be like vines, and will quickly entangle the body of the centipede demon, as if to absorb and recover these corpses.
After observing for a moment and seeing that there was nothing more to note, Heatham took Shavar with him to the depths of the worm's lair.
The deeper you go, the more severe the smell of sulfur emanates from the worm's lair, and more centipede demons and the corpses of centipede demons will appear in the passages.
Entering the depths of the lair, Systham was eventually able to see the nest of the Worms, which had been destroyed by the Death Knight.
It was as if a giant sarcoma with a diameter of several meters had been broken, and reddish-brown flesh was scattered all over the ground.
If the Worm's Nest hadn't been destroyed by the Death Knight, it would have looked like a potato or sweet potato growing in the earth, but with many more roots.
Systm picked up a small piece of flesh and put it in his mouth, and in addition to being sweet and spicy, the scattered flesh also emitted a stench of undead.
It appears that the Death Knight used the power of the undead to contaminate the flesh......
Because of the destruction of the Devil's Nest, there were many reddish-brown eggs the size of eggs among the scattered pieces of flesh, and Systm looked around and found that there were at least a thousand of them.
Perhaps the Death Knight didn't clean up the reddish-brown eggs because they didn't pose a threat, or he was in a hurry to clean up another nest of demon bugs, most of which were still alive.
Stretching out his tentacles, Systm picked up an insect egg at random, and after using the tentacle to [perceive] and found that there was nothing abnormal, Heatham once again used the ability of [teleportation] to try to communicate with the centipede egg.
Unlike the centipede demons that hatched, the emotions produced by these centipede eggs are not particularly tyrannical and can be influenced by the psychic messages sent by Systm.
However, after some experimentation, Systm found that the effect was extremely weak, and it was almost impossible to hypnotize these centipede eggs by hypnotizing ant eggs in the same way.
……
However, just as Sistemm found that there was nothing of value and was about to leave, Sistemm suddenly felt a trace of extremely subtle emotions in the pile of minced meat in the Demon Worm's Nest, as if something was calling for help.
And the thing that makes a cry for help is not an egg, but more like a plant.
