Volume 1 The Endless Wilderness Section 83 Degradation
Due to the conflict, Chen Xing and Ye Yang Bailiu didn't have the heart to stay at the Lanxiang Bar to continue eating dinner. The two went to the coffee shop opposite Alia's gun shop for a cup of coffee and ate a few cookies and pastries, and it was settled.
After sending Yeyang Bailiu back to the dormitory, Chen Xing drove the sand car alone and returned to the underground water station.
In the room, he opened the locker, got into the corridor, whistled, called the bug cart, and went to find Suna. Now the hatchery is more than 20 kilometers away, almost half an hour's drive.
Chen Xing also put some thought into installing springs on the insect car, and then padding sponges and blankets to reduce vibration.
Leaning on the insect cart and squinting for a while, Chen Xing came to the hatching room. Looking around, there are insect eggs emitting a shimmering green light all around, and there are piles of four or five, as if you have come to a mysterious jade cave.
"Brother, brother~" Seeing Chen Xing's insect car, Suna shouted happily.
Chen Xing got out of the car and looked up to see that Suna was bigger than last time. If it used to be a large container truck, now it is a yacht and a small cargo ship, which can no longer be described as a vehicle on land.
According to the Post-Cataclysmic Biological Encyclopedia he had read earlier, a fully mature queen is larger than an aircraft carrier.
At this time, Chen Xing suddenly discovered that the part of Suna that belonged to the human body further shrank into the insect body. Originally, the shoulders were still exposed, but now most of them have been retracted, as if they have been swallowed up by the swamp.
Judging from the development trend, as she grows in size, it is likely that all of them will be retracted into her body and become a queen ant in the true sense.
Chen Xing couldn't help but feel a little flustered, he didn't want to face a bug. At least now, he can still see Suna's voice and smile, and he can still touch her smooth jade-like skin, as well as the elastic, yet brittle bamboo shoots.
In case the whole thing is indented, what else will he touch......
"Brother, why do you keep looking at me~" Finding that Chen Xing had been staring at herself, Suna was a little embarrassed, her face was slightly red, and she said coquettishly.
"Can't I see?" Chen Xing's eyes froze, and he asked in a cold voice.
"No, it's not, my brother can watch it if he wants~" Suna hurriedly swung her feet and leaned down at the same time, so that Chen Xing could see it more realistically.
"Why did your body get bigger again?" Chen Xing asked. He wanted to find out why Suna had grown in size and see if there was a way to stop the trend.
"I, I......" Suna turned her head left and right, looked at her body, then looked at the turquoise dome and thought for a while, and said hesitantly, "Maybe, maybe it was the queen ant who ate it......"
"What, you ate it whole?" Chen Xing looked at Suna's cherry mouth and asked incredulously. That red fire ant queen is the size of two jeeps, and it has only been a few days, and she has eaten them all?
"Yes, I've been eating it for the past two days, it's delicious~" Suna said, as if she was still reminiscing about the deliciousness at that time.
It's hard to imagine that she eats so quickly with such a small mouth, how did she eat?
But when you think about it, it's not surprising. It's like a silkworm, eating little by little, although it seems slow, but it can't bear to eat all day long, and no matter how much it eats, it can be eaten.
It turned out to be caused by absorbing nutrients, and Chen Xing couldn't help but sigh secretly. This situation can be said to be inexplicable, can he still let her not eat?
Thinking of this, he was still a little unwilling. It was originally multifunctional, but now it has become a single one, and the losses are not insignificant.
Stygian Termites, Underworld Plane, Psionic Affinity, Matter Disintegration, Telepathy, Hundred Nest Queens, Devouring Magma, Igniting Spiritual Fire, Teleportation, Stardevouring Queens, Crossing the Void......
He kept recalling the contents of the bioencyclopedia, looking for clues.
Psionic affinity......
Light the Flame!
Suddenly, two nouns crossed my mind one after the other.
Underworld termites have a very good psionic affinity. This means that Suna can absorb and use psionic energy. Then he thought of the two psionic awakening potions that he had placed in the bank of Orchid Town.
The "spiritual awakening" of humans and the "ignition of spiritual fire" of mutated creatures are essentially the same. And Suna was originally a human being, could she ignite the spiritual fire by injecting psionic awakening potions? Perhaps after the psychic awakening, she will be able to maintain a stable form instead of becoming a complete bug.
However, the elixir can also be harmful to Suna. Strictly speaking, she's just a "half-human" now.
After thinking about it repeatedly, Chen Xing decided to give it a try.
There are three reasons for this.
First, Suna's vitality is extremely strong, and her digestive system is good, not to mention the corpses of various mutated creatures, the poison sacs of spiders are all eaten correctly, and they are almost invulnerable. A small psionic awakening potion shouldn't cause much consequence. Maybe for her, it's just a stick of glucose.
Second, he believes that Suna does not want the human part to disappear, even if it costs her life. Of course, this idea may not be correct, but if Suna loses her human part, her dream of finding her mother will be shattered.
Third, from his own point of view, Suna's human form is very important, because it is related to the way they get along. You know, humans and bugs are natural opposites, and once this bridge disappears, there will be a serious crisis of trust between them.
Just imagine, who would want to get along with a monster?
Furthermore, does the partial disappearance of Suna's human being mean that the human mind will also disappear with it?
Combining these three reasons, Chen Xing decided to give it a go. Maybe such a decision is a bit ruthless, but from his point of view, if Suna loses the human part, it is equivalent to death.
"Suna......" he whispered.
"Huh?" Suna tilted her little head with confusion on her face.
"Hmm......" Chen Xing looked a little hesitant. Although he had already made a decision, he didn't know what to say when it was time to speak.
For a while, heaven and man were at war in his heart, and his face was cloudy. When Suna saw him, she obediently lay on the side and didn't bother him.
After a long time, he took a deep breath and said, "Suna, have you noticed that your human part is getting less and less. ”
"Huh?" Suna was stunned for a moment, then reacted, lowered her head, looked at her chest and abdomen, and gradually shed tears.
"Woo woo woo ......"
The girl's low crying voice was pitiful, as if there was an invisible hand, grasping Chen Xing's heart, making him feel extremely tight.
"I have a way to ignite your spiritual fire in advance and find a solution, but ......," he paused and said in a strengthened tone, "your life may be in danger. ”
"Woo woo, I don't want to be a bug, I want mom, woo woo woo ......"
"Brother, don't let Suna turn into a bug. Suna is not afraid of death, as long as she doesn't become a bug, Suna is willing to do anything. Suna's face was covered with rain, and she cried.
"Don't worry, I won't turn you into a bug." Chen Xing said in a firm tone.
After comforting her for a while, Suna's mood finally stabilized. Then, she thought about it for a long time, and finally made up her mind, and said to Chen Xing, "Brother, please promise Suna one thing......
"If one day, Suna completely turns into a bug, you ...... You're ......"
"You just kill Suna so that Suna doesn't turn into a bug."
"Don't worry, there won't be that day." Chen Xing comforted.
"No, you have to promise me." Suna insisted.
"Okay, good, I promise you." Chen Xing agreed, but in his heart, he was thinking that Suna's nearly 2,000 vitality was really not something he could kill if he wanted to.
