Chapter 152: Cultivating the Devil's Nest
This kind of survival emotion, like the emotion of a plant, is also somewhat similar to a mushroom, or a slime, an old friend of Sistham.
Syst soon spotted a fist-sized piece of flesh trembling slightly in the scattered minced flesh, and felt more clearly the faint emotion in the piece of flesh that seemed to be about to come to an end.
After using his tentacles to [sense] for a while, and after finding nothing unusual, Sistemm tore some flesh from the piece of flesh and put it in his mouth to taste.
The taste of the piece of meat is still the sweet and spicy taste of the abyssal creatures, and there is some undead stench, but compared to the other pieces of dead meat, the undead smell attached to this piece of meat is very light.
And Syst found that although the flesh and blood of this piece of flesh were filled with the chaotic aura from the abyss, the emotions of the piece of meat itself were very simple.
Just like ordinary plants, there are only two emotions: survival and growth.
Sudden thought of something, and a faint green glow appeared in his tentacles, which was none other than the druid's [healing powers].
With the appearance of this green light, the gradually trembling pieces of flesh on Systham's tentacles began to quiet down, and they no longer let out the wailing emotions they had before.
Because of the life force of [Healing Power], the immortal aura inside the piece of meat was constantly eliminated, and the piece of meat also regained its calm, becoming like a plant seed, and only when Sistemm hit it vigorously with his tentacles would some subtle emotions be emitted again.
Reminiscent of plant seeds, the tentacles of Systum once again appeared with a slightly darker green glow, and this time instead of using [Healing Power] again, Systm began to use another ability, [Spawning Plants].
The power of the [spawning plant] seemed to be even more pronounced than the power of the [healing power], and Systham noticed that the pieces of flesh grasped by the tentacles quickly wriggled, and it didn't take long for the mass of flesh to sprout, and some flesh roots grew.
Thanks to several tentative moves by Sistem, the piece of flesh that was supposed to be dead was brought back to life.
Not only that, but after causing the lump of flesh to grow bloody roots, it seems that because of the power of [the spawning plant], Systm developed an inexplicable connection with the lump of flesh.
For example, if he plucked some of the flesh from the flesh block, as long as it wasn't too far away, Sistemm would sense all of this.
Exactly why this connection came about, Heatham couldn't fully understand it, but if Heatham was right, it was the Druid's power that worked.
And it is precisely because of this special connection that Heatham has conflicting ideas about what to do with this lump of meat.
Normally, taking this nest of demon insects back to the nest for cultivation is tantamount to cultivating a bomb that will detonate at any time.
Leaving aside the centipede demons produced by the nest of demon insects, if this cultivated nest of demon insects attracts the death knight again, it will definitely not be the result that Sistham wants to see.
So Systham's original plan was to throw the piece of meat away, or kill and eat it.
But when Heatham discovered that using [Birth Plant] had a wonderful connection to the Worm's Nest, Heatham had a different idea.
If he continues to use [Spawning Plants] and has a deeper connection with the Worm's Nest, can he drive the Demon Centipedes produced by the Worm's Nest?
As soon as this thought came to mind, it lingered in Systm's mind.
……
Bringing the piece of meat back to the lair is likely to cause an unpredictable disaster, but if he doesn't bring it back, Heatham is very reluctant.
While Sistemm was struggling, Sistemm suddenly thought of something, and immediately became enlightened.
Why is he so entangled?
There was no need for him to bring this piece of meat back to the lair.
Today's excavator only takes a few tens of minutes to dig a 100-meter-deep underground passage, and he can build an experimental base a few kilometers away from the original lair to study the nest of demon insects.
With his flight speed, the range of a few kilometers only needs to fly for a few minutes, and there will be no delay at all.
That way, even if the Worm's Lair were destroyed by the Death Knight, it wouldn't have any effect on Sistham's Lair.
……
……
Sistum's plan was successfully implemented, and with the help of excavators at a distance of five kilometers from the nest, Sistemm successfully built an experimental base 100 meters deep, and cultivated the nest of demon insects in this base.
Heatham found that the cultivation of the Worm's Nest was so simple that there was no need to prepare food for the flesh roots.
In addition to not needing to absorb sunlight, the Worm's Nest is like a plant that can stole nutrients from the dirt to grow.
After only one day, and without using the ability of [Generating Plants], the mass of fleshy roots grew by a third of the time.
The fleshy roots on the flesh spread out like the branches of a plant, and it grew about ten centimeters in a day.
And through this way of growing the Demon's Nest, Systm also learned why there was such a huge hole in the ground where the Demon's Nest was located.
It is precisely because of the absorption of the soil by the nest of demon insects that a huge cavity is created in the ground.
However, after cultivating this kind of monster nest for several days in a row, as Systm's understanding of the monster nest deepened, Heatham found that the nest of the monster worm he had cultivated was missing an important thing.
It has been seven days since Syst used [Catalytic Growth] to cultivate the Demon's Nest, and the Demon's Nest has also grown rapidly, with a diameter of nearly half a meter, and the outer flesh and blood roots have grown to a length of about seven meters, and the main trunk of the flesh and blood roots has become the thickness of a baby's arm.
However, Systm found that the nest of the demon worm he cultivated did not have the ability to lay eggs, and even if it grows larger, it will only grow from one nest of demon worms to more nests of demon worms like potatoes.
The Worm's Nest seems to lack something special to activate, otherwise it would never lay eggs, and can only grow aimlessly by devouring the dirt underground, like a strange plant or mushroom.
Because of this, Sistemm also suspended the research of the Demon Worm's Nest, and at the same time, in order to prevent the Demon Worm's Nest from breeding rapidly in a short period of time, every once in a while, Sistemm would clean up a part of the flesh and blood roots of the Demon Worm's Nest to prevent the scale of the Demon Worm's Nest from expanding.
……
And on such a day, Sistm's [intuition] once again showed an inexplicable feeling, and at the same time, Sistm's tentacles also smelled a familiar and unfamiliar breath.
The shadow that went to the abyss is back......
