Chapter 36: Salt Killing
I saw that the mud slugs had climbed to the edge of the loyal immortals, and looked at the huge and ugly body, the slimy mud was dripping down, like a mud rain, Rao is a brave immortal, and the tentacles trembled with fear.
The situation is critical, and the protagonist hurriedly enters the state of "God descends to earth", and his hind limbs suddenly exert force, rushing towards the mud slug with lightning speed, and then turning around...... Jumped in one direction without the slugs, behind the rotten wood.
Looks like they're running away!
The slug's simple brain made it ignore the fleeing, non-threatening ant, and continued to approach the immortals.
At this moment, it seemed that there was nothing that could stop the mouth of the Heavenly Immortal Dead Monster.
Some of the Praetorian Guards were glued, and most of them were vain trying to chew at the impenetrable mud protectors. Some Praetorian Guards tried to hold the slug on the ground, but they could only bite off a small cloud of mud, which could not interfere with the slug itself.
The mud slug's pair of huge compound eyes looked fixedly at the desperately struggling Celestial, its tentacles had already extended over, and it caressed the smooth carapace of the Celestial Immortal, as if it was savoring the delicious taste that was about to arrive.
In its mouth, which has not been closed, the saliva flows more and more vigorously, like a gluttonous person who has been hungry for two days facing a sumptuous meal, which is extremely disgusting.
Retracting its tentacles and sticking out its head, the slug's big mouth approached the immortals little by little, and the immortals could see the tens of thousands of tiny teeth and huge tongues in their mouths.
It seemed that in the next second, the slug could completely wrap her body into this soft body covered with slimy mud, tear her body apart with countless teeth, and swallow it into its stomach.
Meteors streaked across the sky, burrowing into the behemoth's gaping mouth.
The mud slugs chewed subconsciously.
Then, the huge and seemingly invulnerable giant head suddenly shook uncontrollably, rolling wildly, and the Praetorian Guards on his body were immediately thrown away by the huge force.
The slug tumbled backwards into the pool, but the cool water did nothing to alleviate the great pain it was suffering.
The mud was thrown away and washed away by the water, revealing the yellow-green flesh under cover.
Under the translucent yellow-green skin of the slug, the muscles and tissues inside that are faintly visible to the naked eye are trembling and wriggling rapidly, and you can imagine the pain that this slug is suffering at the moment.
And at this moment, the initiator, the protagonist, is standing on top of the rotten wood, looking at the slug in pain in amazement - he himself did not expect this "weapon" to be so powerful.
The protagonist didn't do anything else, he just hurried to the Praetorian Guards who stayed behind. The saline crystals collected in the grass were placed in a small clay pot and were quietly carried on the back of a warrior.
The protagonist hurriedly unties the silk fiber strap, grabs the clay pot and runs back.
He remembers that when he was a child, he used to listen to older children, sprinkle salt on the slug's body, and watch the slug struggle in pain until it turned into a puddle of liquid.
It is said that this effect can also be achieved with white sugar, which dehydrates and disintegrates the slugs.
Faced with this almost invulnerable slug, the protagonist does not have refined salt and white sugar at hand, but he remembers that there is still this jar of saline crystals.
When he saw that the mud slug monster was about to bite the heavenly immortal, he didn't have time to lean over, so he could only throw his forelimbs and throw the clay pot into the slug's huge mouth.
After entering the state of "Descending from the Heavens", the protagonist not only has a great increase in strength, but this long-distance throw is also extremely accurate. In addition, the speed of the slugs is really slow, and even lowering their heads to prepare for food is slow. And that mouth has been wide open, the size of a mung bean, and the difficulty of shooting is not as big as imagined, that is, the probability of hitting a three-pointer normally. 877 Good Books Network
The protagonist hits with one blow, and the mud slug is also very cooperative, and based on instinct, it crushes the clay pot in one bite and swallows it in the stomach.
The slug's defensive skin can't stop the salt, not to mention the fragile gastrointestinal organs.
These saline crystals, although low in salt, also have the ability to dehydrate slugs.
The mud slug, like drinking a bottle of aqua regia, immediately struggled in pain.
It didn't take long for the mud slug, no, it can't be called a mud slug anymore, its mud protection layer has been lost in the struggle. It struggled weaker and weaker, and finally remained motionless.
The originally huge and swollen body was like a deflated ball, but it began to slowly dent down, and in the pool below him, a disgusting yellow-green liquid that was almost like a thick nose spread, and a disgusting fishy smell wafted in.
The protagonist stops being stunned and summons the Praetorian Guard, who has been thrown everywhere, and continues to rescue his co-op companions from the disgusting smell.
In the end, it was by sprinkling fine sand on the mucus and cutting the mucus that they were all rescued.
The Praetorian Guard team died two fighters in a clash with a mud slug. One was so stuck to death by the mucus that it blocked all the stomata and suffocated to death.
One was carried into a waterhole when the slugs were rolling and struggling, and they were crushed under them to escape without drowning.
And even though he killed the mud slug, there was no loot worth taking away from the corpse, and the protagonist didn't plan to approach the disgusting corpse at all.
In the end, the exploration team returned to [Xinyang City] with the four large and small worms they had hunted.
Then the next day, the protagonist sent some ants to collect a lot of saline crystals in the hollows. Although it can't be eaten, this thing can deal with slugs, what if other slugs sneak near [Xinyang City]?
And if there is a real shortage of salt at that time, the protagonist will have to experiment with how to extract as much salt as possible from these crystals.
- I'm the dividing line -
In the next few days, the construction of [Xinyangcheng] was finally completely completed, and even the farm was built.
The prey in the vicinity is not abundant, and the Divine Envoy King's legion can only rely on breeding to obtain enough meat.
And the protagonist also wants to get a fly mount, and if he can, he can even fly back to the swamp to contact the large army and end this state of disconnection.
As a result, the farm was quickly put into operation, and half of the mealworm eggs and fly eggs unloaded from the ship were released into the house to hatch.
In the past few days, the exploration team has also carefully searched the area around the big poplar tree for about half an hour.
This area is indeed barren, except for a small amount of prey and some edible plants and fungi, there is no other resources: such as salt mines, copper and other metals.
Probably due to the barrenness, there are no indigenous ants in the area, which is good news.
Just when the protagonist thinks they can quietly develop in this barren land and return home when the time is right.
The exploration team reported that they had made a new discovery!
