Chapter 14: The Plague of Innocence
The heavy rain overnight made everything in the world moist. And in the early morning sun, a trace of mist rises, enveloping everything around. It's white, and people don't know where they are.
I only felt that there was an unknown space around me, and there seemed to be no danger, but the various strange noises that came from all directions from time to time brought people the deepest fear.
In this environment, which was less than three meters in sight, suddenly, as if something was about to appear, the fog in front of me suddenly surged to both sides. With a low muffled sound, a black figure gradually became clear. A black scale armor that looks unusually smooth under the moisture of the water mist.
However, one shocking wound after another ruined the overall beauty of its scales. A faint cyan liquid, oozing out of its wounds as it ran and pulling, looked unusually cute.
And what is strange is that even if it is so badly injured, it always has an adult man on its back. You must know the weight of an adult man, and the physical consumption of it is still quite large.
Not only that, but as if to prevent the adult man from falling off his back, its slender tentacles bent backwards and passed firmly through the adult man's waist, tying the man to his back. They are none other than Bai Chang and his Gu General03.
"Ahem"
I don't know when, with a light cough, Bai Chang woke up faintly, patted 03's head slightly, and motioned for 03 to stop.
"How long have I been unconscious, 03." Bai Chang opened his mouth slightly, as if asking the monster under him.
The monster that stopped seemed to be happy with Bai Chang's awakening, and danced its tentacles briskly. Hearing Bai Chang's question, the originally dancing tentacles stopped slightly, as if estimating time.
In just seven or eight seconds, I saw the left tentacle of "03" dance slightly five times, and then the right tentacle swung three times.
"Fifty-three minutes, that's not too long." Bai Chang rubbed the back of his head slightly, and a wry smile rose slightly at the corner of his mouth.
"I didn't expect that I would suppress my spiritual mark on the glutinous ant mother."
As for why it was exterminated, it was nothing more than to squeeze the potential of their own Gu worms and breed glutinous ants in large numbers to ensure that they had sufficient edible substances when they entered the ruins. As for the origin of this whole incident, Bai Chang gradually understood it through an interesting means in the process of pursuing.
At the beginning, Bai Chang encountered that big order, in order to deliver it as soon as possible, he quickly returned home, put the female worms of the glutinous ants into the rice tank, and directly put enough food in order to increase their number.
And as one of the Gu worms that Bai Chang values the most, it must have its particularity.
Glutinous ants are very omnivorous, and to what extent is it strong, that is, all materials with energy can become their food. Bones, flesh, and other biological remains, energy stones, alien crystal nuclei and other material energy sources, and even light energy or other forms of energy can also become their food under a certain transformation.
And once there is enough food, if left unchecked, they will explode and multiply rapidly, exploding in numbers.
However, this creature also has the only drawback, or the only characteristic it has significant, is that it has no attack power.
Just like the termites in the civilized period, if it weren't for Bai Chang's intentional cultivation and protection, it would only take a few hours to be devoured by other creatures if it was directly put into today's post-apocalyptic environment.
And the reason is very simple, in the last days, no living thing will become their food without resistance. And they are the scum of the fifth combat power, and there will be countless creatures who favor them.
Bai Chang, who had a great reputation at the base at that time, also didn't expect that even though he was at home, someone would dare to come over and steal things, it was simply Shi Lezhi. And five or six as soon as they came.
"The thieves now are all tortured and arrogant," and this was also Bai Chang's thoughts at that time.
But what surprised Bai Chang even more was that there were still three fourth-order existences in it. Except for the bald head, who may have been out of revenge for himself, what was the purpose of the rest of the people? Bai Chang didn't figure it out at that time, but now Bai Chang has understood.
Don't you feel too mad to torture a lot of people at once, just to get rid of your glutinous ants? And after knowing their discussion, Bai Chang just smiled slightly wryly, looking a little depressed.
"Lao Tzu, is this a disaster?"
The lack of food at the base made this wandering team that was ready to explore a ruin hit him. Indeed, when he first came to this base, in order to open up the market for his own Gu worms, he deliberately advertised the "rice worms" that he could keep for a long time.
It's just that as time goes by, the food supply in this base is getting more and more, and the other Gu worms of his own are selling better and better. For the sale of rice worms, Bai Chang didn't pay too much attention to it, just treated it as an ordinary carnivorous insect, and bought a little excess from time to time.
As a result, it has been three months now, and he was accidentally remembered by others, and Bai Chang could only say one word MMP.
As for why Bai Chang was in a coma, it was because his mental connection was temporarily lost, which made Bai Chang's brain directly shut down for a short time. As early as when the group was talking about how to get enough rice worms, Bai Chang had a bad premonition. The result is really:
In that group of people, there was actually a spiritual ability, and his high-density spiritual power simply and rudely suppressed the spiritual contract that Bai Chang had on the mother worm.
It's just madness, barbarians, absolutely barbarians. Fortunately, before he fell unconscious, he told 03 to continue walking in the planned direction. Otherwise, he fell into a coma all of a sudden, and it would be a bolt from the blue for 031, who was only six or seven years old with an IQ. If you accidentally crash into the primeval forest with yourself, then you will go straight to GG.
Now there were two senses, one of which had disappeared in one location, apparently they had entered the small ruins. The other induction is to return to normal worm mothers.
Hearing the name Space Ball, Bai Chang still planned to take a look even though he knew that it was a trap. Coupled with the reopening of the ruins, it will not be produced in a short period of time, so Bai Chang plans to go and see what is going on with this gift for himself.
As for the insect mother, after squeezing the potential, it is likely to die in a short time, so the original bait is of little significance to Bai Chang.
"I didn't expect that there was such a thing as a space ball, which can be regarded as an unexpected joy." Bai Chang patted 03's "little head" slightly and motioned to move on.
