Chapter 100: Parasites
For Fu Bin's miraculous skill, except for the wind and rain life, he can think of a little principle, and the others don't even understand why it has this effect. Especially Emperor Yan, when he looks at Fu Bin now, he has been convinced a lot, and because of his previous performance and saving Fu Bin once, he has also gained everyone's trust, and he has been removed from the labels of "cannon fodder" and "coolie".
Yanhuang, this young man, is indeed as the mermaid evaluated, saying that it sounds good is called simple, and the ugly thing is that the emotional intelligence is relatively low, a tendon, after getting acquainted with it, it is not so annoying. At this point, the team of six people has finally fully coalesced into one.
It was about half a day's journey from the manure tank to the Spiral Basin, but the team had been delayed for nearly two hours to hunt the Giant Beast, so they had to speed up now. Fortunately, as a short board, the cultivation level of Ye Wumeng has advanced, and his physical fitness has improved significantly, and he finally no longer lags behind.
As the sun approached the horizon, the team was already on the edge of the Giant Worm Prairie, with a view of the Spiral Basin in the distance. The creatures here are completely different, the grass is getting less and less, the various fungi are getting denser, and the air is filled with an unpleasant smell.
There are large and small mushrooms everywhere, with different colors and shapes, the small ones are difficult to tell with the naked eye, and the large ones are like houses, which is also a strange sight. But Fu Bin had no intention of appreciating it at this time, so he could only rush by, and even some low-hanging prey was not moved.
Anyway, the body density of this man-eating fungus is very low, and it looks like a giant, but it is only tens or hundreds of kilograms, which is not eye-catching to everyone who has just had a big harvest.
But if you want to rush well, you can't get lucky, and you encounter a group of beetles the size of a millstone on the road, and the strange thing is that these beetles are all hung with mycelium, and a few of them even have a large bush of "enoki mushrooms" on their backs, like a white hair, which is very weird.
"Excuse me, it's a parasite." Fengyu Life looked at Fu Bin, who was covered with blood, and said, "It may be that the smell of blood on your body attracts them." ”
Originally, the combat uniform was waterproof and would not be contaminated with blood, but Fu Bin's clothes were now torn, many places had been turned out, and there were a lot of dried blood stains on his hair and skin. He was in a hurry before, and he originally wanted to wash his body and change his clothes when he camped at night, so he didn't deal with it.
Fu Bin has also learned some information in the past few days, parasitic bacteria, the body of the beetle is just their parasitic shell, and the real main body is those hyphae and caps. This is a creature that is sensitive to the smell of blood, they don't actually have sight, and their sense of hearing and smell is very developed.
"What are these zombie-like bugs? It's disgusting! "Nightless dreams and frightened.
"You can think of them as oversized, runaway, human-eating cordyceps."
"Cordyceps? I've heard it's worth a lot of money! ”
“……”
These parasites are not difficult to solve, although they have stronger defense and vitality than insects such as split-winged locusts, and even like zombies, they will not die if they are split into several pieces, but their movements are much slower than that of live insects, and they are not easy to hurt people, and they are completely live targets for practicing combat skills.
However, the atmosphere is not very relaxed, on the contrary, everyone has to carefully kill these parasites, or their parasites. Because these hyphae are contaminated too much, they may be parasitized, of course, it is unlikely to be parasitic on the human body, and they will definitely be removed in the process, but this kind of mycelium that burrows into the flesh is troublesome and painful to remove.
Parasites can only completely parasitize organisms with exoskeletons, while parasitizing organisms without shells are either removed or the parasites die and decay, turning them into fertilizer for it.
Hosts of parasites are very difficult to kill and can only incapacitate them. When these hyphae encounter opportunities, they can still parasitize into other organisms, and after they mature, they will produce spores to parasitize more organisms.
However, most of these mycelium, which have lost their mobility and nutrient sources, will also die and decay, and only those who are nearing maturity will consume the stored nutrients in a short period of time, directly enter the maturity stage, and then sow spores.
After Boss Fei worked hard to clean up this wave of parasites, Feng Fengsheng said again: "Parasitic fungi are the head snakes in the spiral basin, because they only adapt to the humid environment, and the hinterland of the grassland is not suitable for them to survive, otherwise the giant worm grassland would have been a parasitic grassland for a long time, and this is the transition zone between the two regions." ”
The crowd continued on their way, but then the trouble began. Fu Bin felt that his feet were a little itchy, and found that it was a very thin mycelium, so he quickly ripped it off. After that, a similar situation occurred on several people, which made everyone suspicious for a while, and there was a slight abnormality on the skin, and they all thought that it was parasitic bacteria that were doing the trick, and sometimes they found that there was nothing after rubbing for a long time.
Seeing this, Fengyu Life, who had experience, said: "Actually, there is no need to be so afraid, no matter how fast the parasitic process of mycelium is, it will take two days, for us, even if it starts to suck flesh and blood, it will be too late to remove it, but it will be a little painful." ”
Fu Bin thought about it, such a bow and snake shadow would affect the speed of travel too much, so he asked everyone to concentrate on hurrying.
Fortunately, it is almost summer, and before the sun goes down, there is already moonlight, although hazy, but still bright. In the moonlight, a huge basin unfolds in front of you, which is not really visible from a distance, but up close you can see regular curved edges stretching out on either side. According to Fu Bin's rough calculations, the diameter of this basin is about 20 kilometers.
This distance can be traversed in an hour in an ordinary environment, but this basin is full of fog and unfathomable, it is a natural giant labyrinth, and it is not easy to get out of it in a day.
Although Fu Bin was anxious, he also knew that he had to adjust his state when entering such a dangerous place, so he had to follow the advice of Fengyu Life and decided to rest in place for one night. Moreover, everyone also realized the important role of Fu Bin's fourth-level ability in this environment, and unanimously asked him to cultivate and rest well, and he did not have to be responsible for the sentry task in turn.
In this way, Fu Bin has 7 hours to rest. In fact, after being able to control the quality of sleep, the sleep time did not need to be very long, so after he changed the torn clothes on his body, he first sorted out his various abilities while cultivating.
First of all, it is naturally the general domain ability - Mingyi Tianxin, since comprehending the "Tower of Meaning", this ability has undergone a qualitative change, becoming more solid, stable, and controllable, and has a closer substantive connection with this world.
So Fu Bin decided to change his name to "Meaning Mingguang Tower", compared with the previous melancholy and sullen style, this name is obviously positive and full of positive energy.
The second is his specialty skill - the arrow of order, this combat skill is bound to become a classic like a blade and an entropy shield because of its powerful ability to break defenses, and while solving the source of Fu Bin's contribution value, it will also become a skill that everyone must learn...... Oh no...... With the blessing of the Bright Light Tower, his own arrow of order will be higher than others in terms of accuracy and speed.
And the fourth-level combined combat skill of "Order Arrow Rain" is no longer just expected, even if it is less than three shots in two seconds under full force now, it has already begun to take shape, proving that there is no problem in theory.
Then there is Fu Bin's biggest killer weapon, the real fourth-level combat skill - primary entropy transformation. It's an unconventional, completely magical-like ability. Just one application of the spar has repeatedly turned the situation around, but this trick is ineffective for those who know, and the effect will be quickly reduced in the future. However, the potential of the primary entropy change is endless, and its overall value is immeasurable.
As for other skills and combat skills, it is their own comprehensive ability to improve, and there is a shortcoming in this, that is, the level of melee hand-to-hand combat is still very average, maybe it is not bad compared with ordinary people, but compared with the master of interpretation, there is a big gap in skills, and it can only be broken by force, and you will have to work more in this area in the future.
After sorting out his thoughts, he began to cultivate wholeheartedly, after all, the cultivation level is the basis for the growth of strength. Now under the cultivation of all his minds, Fu Bin's conversion rate of entropy energy has exceeded 60%, that is, the efficiency of 1 to 2, and the speed has reached 1.5 units per hour, that is, the entropy energy level of 3 units can be increased in one hour, which can be said to be a unique efficiency at the second-level level.
In order to allow Fu Bin to cultivate with peace of mind, no one else entered this tent. After a night of cultivation, Fu Bin gained a lot, and even felt the existence of a third-level bottleneck, and if he planned to consume about 30 units of spars, he would really encounter that layer of barriers.
The reason why Fu Bin can have such a fast cultivation speed, in addition to the high cultivation efficiency, the domain ability can always be cultivated unconsciously, although this cultivation speed is extremely low, about 3 days or so to increase by one unit, but it seems to be able to slightly shorten the distance of the bottleneck, that is, reduce its own entropy, and at the same time do not consume the spars, the accumulation of small amounts, and under the increase and decrease, the effect is also very considerable.
What surprised Fu Bin even more was that he was obviously much more proficient in mastering several major skills. Especially the primary entropy change, as soon as his mind moved, Fu Bin could already feel the statistical laws around him and began to move, as if a group of fierce beasts raised by himself were about to open the floodgates.
Could it be that understanding skills while cultivating can actually increase the proficiency of skills? It's just that for people who don't have domain ability, this can't be done at all, so Fu Bin never knew this. And even if it is Fu Bin, under such a distraction, the efficiency of cultivation will be greatly reduced, so basically he will not do this, this time it is just a coincidence.
"Captain, you look good." After the First World War yesterday, Emperor Yan was completely convinced of Fu Bin, so that there was no previous estrangement. Fu Bin nodded, and found that the mermaid was packing up, and everyone else was already standing outside, but the night was still dreamless and didn't wake up, as if they had been forcibly woken up.
