Chapter 41: Project of the Worm King
In the face of these unicorn insects that kill their own kind for food, Shinji Ryuzaki seems to be full of interest.
Because he found that these surviving unicorns, the life breath on their bodies was more than twice as strong as when they were caught the day before, and their spiritual qi was completely different, and their personalities became bloodthirsty and fierce, and they were extremely aggressive.
Of course, Ryuzaki Shinji can see at a glance that unicorns will kill each other because of lack of food, but it is not clear why they suddenly become so strong and their personalities have changed so much.
However, when Shinji Ryuzaki saw some dead unicorns, almost all of their heads showed signs of being eaten, and some of them were only two bare spikes, he suddenly remembered a terrifying cultivation method in the earth called Gu Yang.
This method of cultivating terror is probably to put a large group of hungry poisonous insects (Gu worms) in a sealed space, and then, these poisonous insects begin to fight and devour each other in order to survive, and the final winner will absorb the power of all the losers and become stronger, and it is even possible that incredible mutations will occur as a result.
The unicorn insects trapped in the cage in front of them kill each other for food, and gain great power as a result, and this increased behavior is similar to the poisonous insects that are placed in a sealed space to devour each other.
In order to prove the correctness of his idea, Ryuzaki Shinji deliberately asked Alidos to build a large cobweb cage in the cell using the four rock pillars, and then put all the remaining ferocious unicorns in the room.
At sunset the next day, he left the hungry unicorns with only a quarter of what could be fed them.
That night, Ryuzaki Shinji also used Geng's shadow camouflage technique to hide aside, and then used his outgoing spiritual power to observe these unicorn insects at close range.
The leaves left by Shinji Ryuzaki for these unicorn insects have long been divided up by them, but because of mutual jealousy and just eating a little food, they didn't make the first move.
But in the middle of the night, the unfed unicorns began to starve, and then turned their greedy gaze to their fellow human beings.
Soon, the unicorns, who had been feeding on their own kind the previous night, began to show their ferocious fangs to their own kind, and began to fight each other with a few limited moves, such as poisonous needles, silk spinning, and insect bites.
For a moment, purple poisonous needles flew all over the entire large cobweb cage, and the strong smell of blood covered the entire room.
After a fierce battle, a small group of winners appeared, and the remaining losers were swallowed up by these victors.
At this time, there were only five surviving unicorns, less than a quarter of the original number, but the strength of these surviving unicorns was comparable to those of the same kind of giant needle bees outside the ruins that had evolved normally to their final form.
It's just that even though they all have the strength to surpass the average needle bee, they still haven't shown any signs of evolution.
Through this close observation, Ryuzaki Shinji found that after the five surviving unicorn insects devoured the corpses of their companions, they all seemed to have taken a top-level tonic, and the life breath on their bodies gradually became stronger.
Among them, two unicorns that ate seven or eight of the same kind in a row showed continuous molting, and their body size further increased.
In the end, Ryuzaki Shinji came to the conclusion that this method of raising Gu caused the genes of these unicorn worms to appear benignly mutated, and their life potential was further improved, which led to an increase in the threshold of strength required for their evolution.
After confirming that unicorn insects can be cultivated by raising Gu, Ryuzaki Shinji's interest in cultivating unicorn insects became even stronger, and he decided to use this method of raising Gu to breed a worm king.
After all, although the five surviving unicorns can be regarded as excellent qualifications, they are only the winners who compete from hundreds of unicorns, and their potential is still quite limited, and Ryuzaki Shinji is still not eye-catching.
At present, there are still many unicorn insects in the ruins, so Ryuzaki Shinji decided to try to use thousands of unicorn insects to raise Gu, and see if he can artificially create a very qualified insect king.
Because of Ryuzaki Shinji's idea, the number of unicorn insects in the ruins quickly decreased sharply, and the phenomenon of extinction almost immediately appeared, and the insect infestation quickly disappeared.
Unfortunately, Ryuzaki Shinji's somewhat crazy plan was destined to be difficult to succeed, and in two days, Ryuzaki Shinji and his men who worked as free laborers only caught more than 500 unicorns, which was far from thousands.
However, Ryuzaki Shinji did not give up this training plan because of this, and it was difficult for him to stop once he became interested, although the experimental materials were somewhat insufficient, but it was okay to experiment.
This time, Ryuzaki Shinji carried out the Gu cultivation method very thoroughly, he directly asked Alidos to use spider silk to transform the entire cell into a huge spider web cage, and then trapped the more than 500 unicorns inside, and simply didn't give them a little food.
After a few days of fighting, there are only two of the more than 500 unicorns in the cell, and if anyone else sees these two unicorns at this time, they will be extremely shocked.
After all, it was hard to imagine that these two unicorn insects, which could be seen everywhere in the forest, actually exuded an aura comparable to that of a low-level elite at this time.
The fact that the two-headed unicorn can survive among more than 500 of its kind naturally has its peculiarities.
The size of the first unicorn insect is very huge, at least about six times larger, but this huge body does not look bloated at all, and the whole body is streamlined, reflecting the combination of strength and beauty.
Another peculiarity is that in addition to the pink insect feet, nose, and spikes at the ends of the head and tail, the whole body is covered with a thick layer of yellow cuticle, as if it is wearing a pair of pure yellow thick armor.
Moreover, the spikes at both ends of the head and tail were engraved with circles of purple veins, indicating that the poison on his spikes was extraordinary.
The second surviving unicorn was only about twice the size of the average unicorn, but his changes were much greater than that of the other one, except for the spikes at the ends of the head and tail, the whole body seemed to have fallen into ink and dyed, and became pitch black.
Unlike the giant spikes of the giant unicorn, this one-horned insect with a pitch-black body, the spikes at both ends of his head and tail have shrunk, but the length has increased, and the sharpness is much stronger than before, and the spikes are engraved with black lines one after another.
Moreover, a pungent smell that made ordinary people dizzy when they smelled it was constantly emanating from him, and it was clear that he was much more toxic than the other end.
"It's still the most suitable way for these unicorn insects to be cultivated by raising Gu, the mutation and inclusiveness of the Zerg genes in their bodies are much stronger than those of the little elves like the toothfish, even if they devour the same kind, there will be no gene collapse and rapid aging, it's a pity, I thought the toothfish could also be cultivated through Gu farming." Looking at the two unicorns in front of him who were looking at him with a jealous face, Ryuzaki Shinji's eyes flashed with purple light, and he thought excitedly.
The two surviving unicorns apparently evolved in different directions, the first leaning more towards the hoplites and the second towards the Assassins, but in any case, being able to stand out from the more than five hundred of their kind proved to be very good unicorns.
In this regard, Ryuzaki Shinji is naturally very satisfied, however, his Worm King plan still has to be implemented to the end, after all, the Worm King can only exist one.
"Let's begin, only the victors will be able to get out of here." Shinji Ryuzaki said to the two-headed unicorn worm with telekinesis.
