Chapter 227: Brain Demon Worm Babutar (Part I)
In this transcendental black beetle, Sistemm not only felt a repressive aura, but also felt another special aura.
This special aura made the [Shadow Avatar] of Systm want to lean over and gather next to the giant beetle.
"I see, it doesn't seem that the effect of [Swarm Gathering] has disappeared, but that all the bugs in the vicinity are attracted to this higher-rank beetle."
Because of the interference of the main consciousness, the consciousness of Sissym [Shadow Incarnation] gradually became conscious.
In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Sistemm had no intention of communicating with this transcendental-rank insect beast, but only used the ability of [Probing and Analysis] to watch this insect beast.
The combat power of this insect beast is 600-1100, and it is estimated that the strength is not particularly strong in the transcendent rank.
Following the Beetle for a while, Systm slowed himself down, falling behind by the flying bugs in the sky.
Slowing down, Systm began to use the ability of [teleportation] to communicate with the bugs around him.
He noticed that the bugs were angry and excited, eager to tear things apart from afar.
Although there will be a certain response to Sistum's spiritual messages, the response is very weak, and he will not pay attention to his spiritual messages.
Systham tested three beetles, two flies, and a bee-insect in a row, and all of them had similar results.
Heatham also tested some creatures crawling on the ground, with little to no effect.
He also found some worm-like worms with extremely low intelligence, which also began to slowly wriggle in the direction of the bugs.
……
Because of the tests carried out by Systm, there was too much delay.
Half an hour later, when Systham reached his destination in the direction of the call, the battle of the bugs was over......
On the ground was a black dragon corpse nearly ten meters long, and Systham didn't know if it was a real dragon or a wurm similar to a wyvern.
Next to the corpse of the dragon, there are more than a dozen insects and beasts of the transcendent rank who are eating the corpse of the dragon, and some ordinary insects will also pour into the corpse of the dragon and devour the flesh and blood of the dragon corpse.
The relationship between bugs is not very harmonious, and there are often things where bugs fight each other.
These fights also represent the death of the bugs, and when the bugs are injured and bleeding from the fights, they will stimulate other bugs around them to attack them in groups.
Of course, if some bugs with strong individual strength are injured, such as a Magical Rank bug beast, ordinary bugs will not attack it.
As far as the eye can see, perhaps because of the siege of this dragon, there are many insect corpses scattered on the ground, and these insect corpses are also devoured by other insects.
There were even some bugs that were injured and did not die completely, but they were attacked by other bugs and quickly turned into real corpses.
The bugs that were fighting side by side a moment ago will become food for other bugs after they are injured and have no use value.
But beyond the cold side of these bugs, there are some special places.
After the bugs have eaten and drunk, some bugs of the same race will mate, and some female bugs that have given birth to eggs will start laying eggs in different places.
These egg-laying bugs are not attacked, and the eggs laid will not be used as food by other bugs, and even other bugs will deliberately avoid these eggs when they see them.
Seeing this, Systm controlled [Shadow Avatar] to land and came to a place where a female beetle had just laid her eggs.
Systm discovers that his [Shadow Avatar] has inexplicably developed a desire to protect the eggs, as if they were his offspring.
Perhaps this is something hidden by the title "Insect Plague Legion".
Picking up the tentacle egg, Sistemm placed it back in the dirt.
Through these observations, Sistemm can roughly deduce the concept of Ulysses, the "Zerg Master", and the future development direction of the "Insect Plague Legion".
Ulysses directs insect creatures, including insects, to attack all creatures except insects, intending to exterminate all other genocides.
At the same time, Ulysses does not stop the insects from killing each other.
Perhaps Ulysses knows the secret that insect life has evolved all the way through countless years to the present, and wants to filter out the insect races that are not suitable for the "Insect Plague Army" through this way of survival of the fittest.
And the "Insect Plague Legion", which does not destroy the insect eggs, will undoubtedly speed up the process of selecting suitable insect races, and it will also be easier for some powerful insects to be born.
But what's the point of destroying everything else like that, leaving only worms? Is it just to be strong? ”
Systm muttered softly, unable to agree with the idea of Ulysses, the Zerg Master.
……
While Sistemm was thinking, another transcendental-rank insect beast moved through the turbulent swarm and moved to the vicinity of the dragon corpse and began to eat the dragon corpse.
Most of these transcendental-rank insect beasts were the kind of beetles with two huge pincers on their heads that Sistemm had seen before, as well as a few giant red spiders, and two black bee-like insect beasts.
And this transcendental-rank insect beast that moved over, Sistemm felt very familiar, it was a centipede insect beast with a body length of nearly twenty meters.
Sistum felt that this transcendental centipede insect beast was very similar to the kind of centipede demon he had seen in the main plane of the Warren Plains, and Sistemm even felt some faint demonic aura on this centipede's body.
"Could it be a centipede demon? But why has it become a transcendent rank, it has not yet transformed into a worm demon, and although the emotions generated are still tyrannical, they are not so crazy. ”
Syst controlled [Shadow Avatar] to take to the skies once more, past the dense insects on the ground, and observe the transcendental-rank centipede insects.
In the process of observing, Systham suddenly remembered a lot of information that Shadow had told him about the swarm druids.
Grasshopper Beast Shadow has been in the magical rank for decades, and since the beginning of his wisdom, Shadow has been collecting information, and during this time, Shadow has even learned the words of the Abyss.
According to the information told by the shadow, pure insect beasts are extremely rare and difficult to be born, and his master Phastantin has studied for many years, and he has only created two transcendental rank insect beasts.
It is precisely because it is difficult to manufacture pure insect beasts of the transcendent rank that the insect beasts that Festantin has mainly studied in recent years are basically concentrated in the metamorphosis and magic ranks.
Even under the catalysis of the swarm druids, the birth of powerful insect beasts is extremely difficult.
How was the "Zerg Master" born?
And why did the swarm druid, who has the ability to control the swarm, have no warning and precautions before the attack of the "Swarm Master"?
Don't......
"Unknown insect beast, you look a little confused."
Just as Syst controlled [Shadow Avatar] to hover in mid-air, constantly thinking, a mental fluctuation suddenly appeared in [Shadow Avatar's] mind.
At the same time, the blood of Sistum's body, which had returned to the Crystal Throne, vibrated slightly, and his [intuition] once again sent a feeling of uneasiness......
