"What kind of immortals are these?" Mei Jun was stunned as he watched this immortal brawl.

He didn't expect that the creatures in this place were even more terrifying than those in the yard.

The black and shiny cockroaches were at least 5 centimeters in size, and they were covered with a hard exoskeleton like a beetle, which was obviously also the product of mutation.

However, the rats that are their opponents are not bad.

These rats are 10 centimeters long except for their slender tails, well-developed muscles under their fur, and a pair of sharp rodents in their mouths, which, combined with the powerful strength of vertebrates, can easily pierce the body of cockroaches.

But with that incredible numbers, cockroaches also have the capital to compete with them.

In the brawl, some cockroaches were bitten off by rats, but their heads were separated from their bodies and they could still move, but they lost their sensory organs and couldn't discern their directions.

Because this very ancient species has survived from the Silurian period 400 million years ago to the present day, and its appearance has not changed much, all of which show the tenacious vitality of this creature.

Among them, the vitality is known as the German cockroach, a terrible breed in the north of the Celestial Empire, even if the head is separated from the body, it can live for eight or nine days, and has super vitality.

And the cause of death is only starvation, because the head is separated from the body, unable to provide nutrients for the body by eating and drinking, and finally dies of hunger and thirst.

There is also the American cockroach, a species that is raging wildly in the south of the Celestial Empire, they have a huge size among all cockroaches, but the most terrifying thing is that they can glide and burst when stepped on, which is simply a nightmare in the eyes of many southerners.

But the cockroaches in front of Mei Jun are more like mutations of the combination of two invasive alien species, and they also have the common characteristics of the two, huge size, agile speed, and tenacious vitality.

And they seem to have a lot of intelligence, using their sharp carapace to fight rats twice their size.

Rats with only one body of flesh and fur will be easily scratched, stabbed, and cut by a hard exoskeleton.

But these were not too fatal wounds, and the adrenaline of the bleeding and injured rats rose rapidly, and their temperament became excited, and they turned their heads and bit through a large hole in the besieging cockroaches beside them.

Under the sharp teeth and claws of the rats, the cockroaches began to retreat, and the armor on their bodies gradually became tattered, and their limbs were cut into two parts.

After all, in front of vertebrates, these weak insects, even if they have a hard exoskeleton, are just a group of younger brothers that the earth uses to fill the low-level ecological niche.

Suddenly, a cockroach was thrown over by a mouse and landed right in front of Mei Jun's eyes.

"It's just right, I can try the parasitic ability of that zombie fungus, and see if this group of guys has a way to get out of here. He looked at the cockroach that had been bitten through the body and was still struggling, showing an elegant and easy-going smile.

He was looking for a body to blend into, but he didn't expect to send it to the door.

And this cockroach obviously didn't expect that there were other creatures at the entrance of this cave, and was stunned for a moment at first, and then...

"Compress, spin silk!" Mei Jun used the two abilities together, and immediately spit out a ball of sticky spider silk, pulling his body onto the cockroach's body, and in the process of pulling, his body quickly shrank to a size of 1 millimeter.

As soon as he came into contact with the cockroach's jet-black body, he turned into a puddle of viscous liquid on the cockroach's back, and a large amount of green mycelium stretched out and burrowed into the gaps between the joints.

The latent creature instincts begin to make the cockroaches struggle frantically, however... It didn't work, and its nerves were gradually being controlled.

Because the movement of cockroaches is controlled by the peripheral nerves of the body, its activity is controlled by the three nervous systems of the lower abdomen, thorax and head.

Even if the head is not protected, the rest of the body can still move.

So for cockroaches, that head is just a tool to maintain breathing and blood pressure, as well as to eat.

When the green mycelium invades all the peripheral nerves of the cockroach, Mei Jun, who has devoured the mother species of the zombie fungus, can interfere with and control these peripheral nerves, and turn them into zombies controlled by herself.

And in this parasitic process, time only passed for a while, and the defeated cockroaches all fled in one direction, and Mei Jun also crawled out of the hole, dragging a somewhat stiff body behind the butts of the cockroach brigade.

Seeing that the cockroaches were defeated, the victorious rats stood up with their feet upright, their heads held high, and their mouths made a fierce "squeak" grinding sound, as if they were cheering for the battle.

After this great battle, the severed limbs and stumps of cockroaches and the flesh and fur of rats also fell to the ground.

Immediately, they burrowed into the hole that Mei Jun had just come out of.

"Where the hell are these cockroaches going?"

Mei Jun followed these cockroaches into hole after hole, and followed for an unknown amount of time, and the originally stiff movements slowly became normal.

It is also the reason for parasitism that he can choose not to kill this cockroach, after leaving its body, this cockroach can still take back its body, but in this case, it is impossible to obtain the memory of this cockroach.

Therefore, the parasitic ability of the zombie fungus itself is not terrible, and it is not as powerful as Mei Jun's direct mimicry after devouring, which can not only change exactly the same but also obtain all the memories of the devoured.

But what's really scary about the zombie fungus mother species is that it can be paired with other abilities, which is to reproduce and release spores in large areas, and then parasitize the creatures' bodies to occupy their nerves, and enslave them into walking dead under its control by manipulating the nerves.

And the spores on these walking dead will explode in all directions as soon as they mature, and then land on other creatures, continuing to infect...

The cockroaches in front of them turned into a hole with ease, but their expressions seemed to change to respect.

Mei Jun, who was following behind, subconsciously rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had seen a mistake, but he still followed in...

But this one...

"This..."Mei Jun was shocked again...

A very tall and spacious cavern appeared before his eyes, with light-emitting diodes arranged in an orderly manner, connected to the button battery next to it, illuminating the entire cavern.

This 1-meter-high cave is neat and bright, and it does not look like a cockroach dwelling at all, but rather a neat temple.

And in this bright hall, an oversized golden cockroach sits on the highest seat.

On his left and right sides sat a few black and shiny cockroaches.

In addition to their darker color than ordinary cockroaches, their overall body size is also about 7 centimeters.

In comparison, the size of this golden cockroach is at least 15 centimeters or more.

Its armor glowed with gold in the light, its two equally golden tentacles were 36 knots long, and its six limbs were covered with sharp barbs and hooks.

I saw it sitting firmly in the highest position, one hand supporting its small head, hanging its head and sleeping, like an elegant emperor.
