Chapter 711: The Lair
At this time, the Doom Spider stopped not far from a dense timeline.
The timeline of this area is covered with dense spider silk, which seems to be somewhat impermeable, and there are strict time and multi-dimensional rules, which can almost prevent the invasion of weak creatures.
Of course, the ecological niche of the Doom Spider is at most a little higher than that of the ancient snake when it eats mud, and it is also a younger brother in the four-dimensional space-time.
This was apparently the Doom Spider's lair, and it wandered not far away for a while, and there was a regular vibration in the part of the nest that extended from the lair.
It seemed to pick up the signal, and immediately slashed in one direction, and the edge of the spider's nest, which was densely covered with spider silk, suddenly cracked.
The Doom Spider dragged the body of the ancient snake and plunged into it.
After entering the lair, there are tunnels leading in all directions, and the entire lair is made of a mixture of spider silk and crystals.
After turning around, the doom spider finally came to the core area of the nest, where there is a space with a size of 560~740 standard degrees.
Space crisscrosses the timeline, but here the timeline is a little sparse.
In the middle of the sparse timeline, there are 8 doom spiders, large and small, the largest of which is almost two-thirds the size of the ancient snake.
And in addition to these doom spiders, in this space, there are also some "chrysalis" hanging in the middle of the spider's web, these things are actually captured prey.
A large part of them are period ancient snakes.
In addition, there are two other four-dimensional creatures, their ecological niches are similar to those of the ancient snakes, and they belong to the bottom creatures that are difficult to brother.
The Doom Spider, who had brought in the remnants of the ancient snake for a while, sent a message to the leader, explaining the course of the hunt.
The largest doom spider also responded with a message.
Doom spiders are different from ancient snakes that live alone, and their survival mode is based on small groups.
Generally speaking, the size of a small group of doom spiders is usually between 5~20 individuals. They will actively divert traffic.
Why can't it be too big? Mainly a matter of their prey, every group of doom spiders? will occupy a fixed area.
Fixed area? It means that the resources in the area are also fixed.
What if the Doom Spider population is too large? It will lead to overhunting of prey in the hunting area, and the period of ancient snakes and these bottom creatures? Nor is it unlimited.
Period: Does it take time for an ancient snake to grow? Once over-hunted, it will only make the ancient snakes in a fixed area disappear in a short period of time.
After appearing in this situation, the doom spider will either expand the hunting range? Either move to other areas.
The question is? Other areas are also home to Doom Spiders, or other predators, and the wanton migration and expansion of hunting areas will only lead to mutual fighting.
So after the group exceeds twenty, the leader of the Doom Spider will take the initiative to drive some of the members away? There's no way around it.
The ecological laws of nature doom the vast majority of organisms to adapt to the rules? Or disappear into this world and be able to transcend all existences? It's rarer than a rarity.
……
The remnants of the ancient snake were dragged by the Doom Spider into a gap between the timelines? And then spit out the silk thread and weave a chrysalis? Fixed in the middle of a spider's web.
Prey after being caught? Sometimes doom spiders don't eat right away.
For example, now, if there is enough food in the nest, the doom spider will wrap the prey, store it in the spider's web, and wait until the prey is reduced, and then take it out for emergency.
The parasite hidden in the body of the ancient snake is feeding back the situation of the Doom Spider's nest back to A-002.
Guan Hansheng saw that the Doom Spider was not eating, and he also gave up his previous second plan and chose to continue to wait and see.
A-002 also needs time to study the time knot-crystal.
After instructing Lin Mao a few words, Guan Hansheng turned on the communication system and reported the matter to the new human native, including the process of encountering the Doom Spider, the zombie toxin, and the discovery of the time-knotted crystal.
The new human race is native, let Guan Hansheng be careful, as long as he does not expose himself, other things can be acted upon.
Looking at the four-dimensional space-time virtual map in front of him, Guan Hansheng discussed it with the two deputy captains again, and decided to send a group of reconnaissance spacecraft to lurk over to the side of the Doom Spider's Nest.
The unmanned reconnaissance spacecraft hid all the way to Tibet, and it took more than two months to reach the area around the Doom Spider's Nest.
To avoid being spotted by the Doom Spider, the Scout Ship hides in the surrounding timeline.
These timelines have long been horribly scourged, and the spy ship has disguised itself as a timeline crystal wall, snapping to the timeline, silently monitoring the Doom Spider's Nest.
During this period.
In A-002, the study of time-knotting-crystallization has also been completed, as well as the study of the replication process and related physical properties.
"Captain, this is a new type of parasite that we have developed based on the knot of time, crystals, that can be disguised as crystals or spider silk." You Zhi said happily.
Guan Hansheng glanced at the document: "Is it reliable?"
"It's unreliable, you can only give it a try." You Zhigao spread his hands.
After weighing the pros and cons for more than ten minutes, Guan Hansheng finally decided to give it a try, after all, the new parasite is not actually tested, and it is difficult for researchers to improve.
Only with the measured data can we find the problem of new parasites.
However, there is also a certain amount of risk involved in doing so, because the body of the Doom Spider is covered with fluff, and these fluffs are extremely sensitive to the wind and grass around them.
Under the manipulation of several crew members, the new parasite hidden in the body of the ancient snake slowly eroded the crystal, opening a small gap in the crystallization wrapping.
This notch, which appears to be similar to the surrounding crystals, is actually camouflaged by a new type of parasite.
Immediately new parasites continued their efforts, attaching themselves to the silk threads of the spider's web.
At this time, inside the Doom Spider Nest, only 4 Doom Spider Nests exist, and the other Doom Spiders went out to hunt.
Carefully manipulating the new parasite, it infiltrated a smaller doom spider, the doom spider hanging from the timeline, unaware of the approaching danger.
Along the spider silk, little by little.
Seeing that he was about to touch the body of the doom spider, suddenly the doom spider seemed to sense something, and turned around to sense the surroundings.
In an instant, the new parasite also disguised itself as spider silk, motionless in the spider's web.
The doom spider was on the spider's web, patrolling back and forth several times before he temporarily put away his doubts, but he raised his vigilance a little.
Faced with this situation, Guan Hansheng, who controlled everything remotely, was also a little nervous and had to let the new parasite pause.
Three days passed, and no more anomalous doom spiders were found, so I relaxed a little.
It's just that Guan Hansheng still didn't act rashly, and it wasn't until half a month later that he let the new parasite continue to act.
In this operation, the crew's operation became more cautious and slow.
The doom spider moved again, making Guan Hansheng and the others worried again.
Soon they turned out to be a false alarm, and it turned out to be a doom spider who had returned from hunting, and was communicating with this doom spider.
