Chapter 327: Devouring

Even after becoming a high-level creature, the soft and light human skin is still a weak point of defense. Non-human organisms rarely have this problem, while exoskeleton creatures behave more perfectly. Evolving to this extent, their exoskeletons are harder than steel, but they still maintain the unique toughness of living beings, and they are inherently excellent armor.

The overall structure of the mine remains stable, but the overturned minecarts, collapsed beams and scattered rubble block Zhang Le's path. The more he uses his new body, the more comfortable he feels. The body of the lord level is beyond imagination, and it is very different from the body of the plant lord, one wants to move, and the other wants to be quiet. No matter what was in front of him, as long as he stretched out his long claws and waved it lightly, a devastating force would naturally appear, and the radiation range of the power could be large or small, whatever he wanted, the obstacle would be cleared immediately.

After turning a corner, the light in the cave immediately dimmed. Although objects can be seen within twenty or thirty meters, the surface of the scenery seems to be covered with a translucent film.

The further you go inward, the more dim the light becomes, and eventually, the visual range stabilizes at about 10 meters. Before he knew it, he had penetrated more than 300 meters into the cave. There was no shortage of all kinds of strange Zerg compatriots in the cave, but they were all the kind of bugs with the lowest intelligence, and Zhang Le did not find any useful information in their communication.

The further he went underground, more flavors began to appear, and at this point, Zhang Le finally figured out the source of the smell. They are the flavors of various metals, alloys, and certain metal compounds. And the flavor that attracts Zhang Le the most is still ahead.

After walking another hundred meters or so, a slope with an inclination of about thirty-five degrees suddenly appeared, and the entrance to the cave suddenly became much larger. Zhang Le forcefully pulled a stone and threw it into the cave, and the instant sparks generated by the collision of the stones allowed him to see the situation in the cave clearly.

The orbit here becomes a spiraling structure, and a bottomless cavern extends downward. The cave is large and small, like a funnel. Zhang Le wanted to jump down directly, but he just saw a new tractor ore truck beside him, and he couldn't help but play.

"Oh Roar Roar ......" riding an ore cart in a dark cave is much more enjoyable than the roller coaster in the amusement park, because the front is full of unknown darkness, and the long-lost sense of fear makes Zhang Le very excited.

Occasionally, sparks from the friction of the rails have not had time to illuminate the surroundings, and the ore cart has left them behind, but this occasional light makes the whole cavern even more bizarre.

A strong sensation of falling to the ground was heard, and the ore cart reached the bottom of the circle and continued to rush forward along a flat track. The track below should be a little deformed, and it doesn't match the rail car perfectly, and a sharp friction sound resounded in the hole**. There was the sound of rats chirping ahead, accompanied by the sound of a bucket being knocked over.

After sliding for more than fifty meters, the ore truck slowly stopped. Zhang Le jumped out of the car, familiarized himself with his body, and then gently waved his forefoot, and a cluster of flames appeared out of thin air, hovering three meters in front of him.

This kind of flame is a real flame obtained in the magma land, not a virtual creature flame, it does not need to consume the fluctuating energy in the body, and normal life energy and plant energy can also be used as its supply source.

The entire mine has an unobstructed view. Railroad tracks, steel beams, wooden frames, shallow potholes, wooden sticks, shovels and buckets, etc.

Not far away, the mine is divided into three forks, and the railroad tracks are also divided into three. Coming to the three-way intersection, following the direction where the smell came from, Zhang Le turned towards the mine on the left.

The cluster of flames opened the way in front of him, Zhang Le slowed down his pace slightly, and followed behind more than twenty meters after falling.

Occasionally, water droplets from the top of the mine fall into puddles on the ground, making a dripping sound. Seeing the flames appear, all kinds of small creatures dodged. Most of them were ordinary non-mutated creatures, but a soft bug with white flesh managed to catch Zhang Le's attention.

Its body glowed with a strange sheen, like warm jade and cold metal. What's more, this fleshy worm, which is about thirty centimeters long, is exuding that alluring fragrance. It was because of this fragrance that Zhang Le was attracted.

The body of the meat bug is the meat bug, and it does not belong to the arthropod creature, and Zhang Le cannot perceive its existence, let alone control its body and mind.

"I'm so hungry!" Zhang Le felt a convulsion in his stomach again, and hunger seemed to light a bonfire in his stomach.

Zhang Le waved his hand again, and a basketball-sized flame wrapped one of the meat worms. Snort, the burning sound of the flames rang out. After a few minutes, he put away the flames, and was stunned, although the flesh worm shrunk into a ball, it was still alive. At the moment when the flames stopped, the meat worm swooped down, jumped five or six meters away, and fled into the distance.

The virtual roots appear, and the escaped flesh worms are captured. This time, Zhang Le honestly used the virtual creature flame generated by the fluctuating energy to start burning from the inside of the meat worm. A smell of barbecue mixed with tantalizing aromas appears at the same time.

The meat worm shrank to a dozen centimeters long, and its body turned burnt yellow, although I don't understand the type of this bug, but at least from the point of view of appearance, it can be eaten. Zhang Le couldn't hold back anymore and swallowed it in one gulp.

The outside is scorched and the inside is hard, where is the food, and it is clear that the bibimbap is distinct. One part of the meat worm is indeed as crispy as a fried locust, but the other part is clearly a hard stone.

Fortunately, the digestive structure of locusts is very different from that of humans, and before Zhang Le could react, a cloud of digestive juice appeared in his body, wrapping these stone-like things. After a few seconds, the stone disappeared and turned into a strong fragrant juice that flowed to the stomach and intestines, and soon spread throughout the body.

Zhang Le shuddered, and then, his eyes turned red. The meat worm that was fleeing in a hurry sneezed a few times and fled faster.

More than a dozen clusters of flames appeared at the same time, forming a long string, like a fiery red lantern, illuminating the mine within a hundred meters as if it were daylight.

Zhang Le walked in front, controlling the flames, and strode forward to catch up. The mine didn't fork for the time being, so he didn't have to worry about his prey escaping.

Half an hour later, he came to the end of the passage. More than 20 flesh-colored insects were tied to the virtual roots, and there was also a bug that was specially left behind to take Zhang Le to the entrance of a cave-in-a collapse and disappeared without a trace.

The hole in the cavity was narrow, allowing only a child's body to pass by, and a rich fragrance sounded like substance.

Now that he has found the source, he is not in a hurry. The insect is roasted again with a biological flame and then eaten, and some of the stones are still converted into energy and digested into the body.

Zhang Le finally understood the type of ability, devouring. Jinx's body is a locust, and she has the ability to devour and transform metal, and the body of this current locust Zerg lord seems to have similar abilities.
