Chapter 278
The tubular creature suddenly appeared, devouring the corpses on the ground, leaving behind nothing but clean clothes and no traces, as if the corpses had never existed.
I had imagined a myriad of insects and other monsters, or prehistoric creatures, but I never imagined that these tube-like creatures were at work.
This reminds me of a legendary insect called the devil's nematode.
According to what I've read in the journal Science Nature, devil nematodes are found several kilometers underground, making them the deepest animals ever found.
This eerie insect is named after the demon Mephistopheles depicted in Faust.
Scientists say the discovery of the insect suggests that there is a rich biosphere underground, and that there are many unknown creatures to a large extent, and that the devil nematode is just the tip of the iceberg.
The monster I found in front of me was almost identical to the devil nematode I had seen in the journal Science Nature.
Speaking of which, there is a little story about the discovery of this devil nematode by scientists, in the Beatrix gold mine in South Africa, where it is located in one of the richest gold mines in the world.
It stretches for about two kilometres underground, and every year 10,000 workers dig for about eleven tonnes of gold from here.
But often in the process of gold panning, devil nematodes appear together with gold.
The story sounds like humans were too greedy, dug too deep, and eventually unleashed the terrible demon Devil Nematode.
This devil nematode is a worm that is about more than a meter long, which is an astonishing discovery, and before that, scientists thought that there would be no other animals in such places deep underground than bacteria.
The discovery of the devil's nematode can be said to be an accident.
I would never have imagined that such a terrible insect would be found in a place like the Plateau Snow Mountain, and when I saw the tubular devil nematode on the ground sticking out its head and devouring those corpses without hesitation, I shuddered, and under the trembling of my fingers, the corpse bell made a jingling sound.
Immediately the devil nematodes sensed my presence, and they stretched out their pink tubes and pointed at me, locking me firmly.
The next moment, the body under the snow suddenly poked its head out and surged upwards for two or three meters, immediately exposing most of the body underground.
These devil nematodes look like earthworms that have been magnified countless times, but they are more disgusting than earthworms, especially the open mouth at the end of the devil nematode, which looks like an alien creature from the movie.
This kind of devil nematode, which is rarely found in the scientific community, devours human flesh and blood is already quite terrifying, not to mention that it grows into such a strange appearance, which is even more terrifying.
At this moment, I was so frightened that I couldn't walk, as if I had been immobilized, and I couldn't move my feet, and I was shocked by this unheard of, unseen creature, until the body of the devil nematode moved from the ground to me, and the demonstrative poked its head out of the snow, and I was about to open its big cross mouth and absorb it on my body, that I could react and gasp.
I opened my eyes wide, suddenly woke up like a big dream, shouted, and rolled down the snow hill with a donkey, and then quickly got up and rushed to our camp opposite, and at the same time shouted to Ah Zi, who was on guard at the gate of the camp, Zuo Tianmei: "Two aunts and grandmothers, save me, I can't hold on...... master"
Ah Zi was standing at the door of the tent at this time and was on guard cautiously, he heard my call for help, stood up straight all of a sudden, and watched me flee in embarrassment with some confusion from a distance, and in a blink of an eye it seemed to see the tubular insect devil nematode behind me, and hurriedly sacrificed the soul drum, and the invisible drum spread towards me.
"Bang! Bang! Bang......"
For a moment, the sound of the drum shook the sky, like a deafening explosion of thunder on the ground, and in a trance, I only felt a heat behind my back, and I couldn't help but turn my head to look over, it turned out to be the devil nematode chasing after me, seeing that it was just a stone's throw away from my back, but let the dementor drum hit, exploded out of thin air, and the pale green blood splashed out of it just fell on my body.
The Soul Drum exerted the fifth chapter of the "Taiyin Ghost Seven Chapters" The power of the thunder is extremely great, and the invisible sound wave bombards the body of the devil nematode, and the pure sonic boom formed in an instant is enough to tear the tough body of the devil nematode, and the dozens of devil nematodes that chased me for a while burst open without warning under the attack of the dementor drum, turning into a cloud of broken flesh.
Taking advantage of the interval between the attacks, Ah Zi eagerly beckoned to me and shouted, "Taixuan! Fast! Come on! ”
I ran as fast as I could, and the last donkey rolled to the back of a yak carcass, and suddenly felt as if I had found a sense of security at home, and some collapsed leaning on the back of the dead yak, just panting.
Ah Zi sacrificed the soul drum, the drum sounded, like the sickle of death, those devil nematodes didn't know how powerful, and in an instant, the bodies of dozens of devil nematodes exploded and disappeared.
Zuo Tianmei also pounced in front of me at this time, grabbed my arm and shook it violently, and asked, "Senior brother, have you been injured, what are those things?" ”
I gasped and glared at Zuo Tianmei, and I was speechless for a while, and it took a long time to breathe and said: "That's the devil nematode, those militants of the Yin Yang Sect were killed by this kind of monster sneak attack, I can't stay here, I don't know how many of these devil nematodes are in this underground, let's find a way to retreat quickly is the king." ”
As he spoke, he heard only a burst of shaking of the earth, the shaking of the earth violently, and the cracks were produced at a speed visible to the naked eye, and they continued to spread in all directions. I made a lot of noise before, and it was finally an avalanche.
Fang Guohua and Pilsen were caught off guard and fell to the ground all of a sudden, while snow dust rose in the surrounding void, which was a sign of an impending avalanche.
At this time, Ah Zi didn't care about dealing with the group of devil nematodes, because the mountain shook violently, she fell to the ground unsteadily, and her whole body rowed out seven or eight meters away along the smooth snow slope at once.
Almost between three or five breaths, almost half of our bodies were trapped in the snow, and it would be difficult to break free for a while, and it was estimated that it would not be long before the snow-capped mountains completely collapsed, and the big guys had to be buried alive here.
