Chapter 52: The Sorrow of Being a Worm
This insect has a unique scientific name, the name is slime worm, the mature slime worm is full of pits, although the appearance is ugly, when made into a delicacy, many humans praise its taste like crispy chicken.
However, this is also a kind of domestic animal that is fostered on a human farm, it is very easy to raise, if it is only fed once a week, such a bug is indeed very easy to raise, and even if it is eaten once a week, it is already very good at growing meat.
It is obviously easier to maintain than domestic animals - chickens, ducks and geese, and even so, it sounds like such a bug is also incredible, and the purpose of bringing in the armyworm must be very clear at the moment.
"Do you want us to tell you where he is?" The auditor on the side spoke.
"No, I think I know where it is, and I can know where it is by smell." On the other side, Noste shook his head, and then came to a stop at the side of the slime worm.
Although the armyworm is a domestic animal, it is rarely released to meet humans, they are all locked in the floodgates, as long as the specified time will be put into food, although these armyworms are very hungry, but how to say that they are also creatures that eat an amazing amount of food over time, and when they reach the mature stage, they have to eat more than 30 catties of leaves at a time.
Obviously, such insects continue to eat like this, and if the trees in the vicinity are cut down enough, it will not be enough for them to eat, and no one even thinks that they must be able to eat once a week, and if the amount of food is sufficient, who will eat without moderation.
And for the food source is really an omnivorous horror creature, sometimes for food, or hungry for too long, will also attack their own kindred, several together a sticky armyworm, to reduce casualties, will put a special shackle on it, when eating will open the mouth part, the steel chain on the body is a set of mechanical chain matrix, can exert pressure within the team, the stronger the resistance, the stronger the pressure, in order to resist this force, there is only one way, that is, to give up resistance, According to what humans say, such insects are really good in other ways than starving every day, and they are treated differently as breeding pigs, and they wait to grow up day after day.
However, it is also strange to say that when the meat is very soft in the middle of the mature stage, such insects have a texture like pork belly, and some parts are crispy like crispy chicken, and the value of the jeweled meat that is made into dishes is irresistible.
Therefore, the armyworm will almost be harvested and take away its life in the middle stage of maturity, so this insect is still a source of goods in short supply in the kitchen every day, and even if it is not mature, it is sometimes in a hurry to get rid of it.
After all, this worm is much cheaper than chicken per catty of meat, and a chef with a bit of strength has even made these meats taste the same as chicken, duck, and beef.
Maybe this is the only merit of this kind of bug, although people hate bugs, but they will definitely put food first, mainly because at the moment this bug can solve the problem of food and clothing for the residents, compared to the terrible hatred of the zerg is weakened a lot.
This is also the so-called turning war into jade, but in general, human beings are still far away from the big situation, and in the face of these zergs, they have always had a thought from the beginning to the end, to eliminate them, either they exterminate the clan or the human race becomes a prisoner of the zerg.
In fact, whether the Terrans will not become such an end as slime worms in the future depends on the current human defenses and the strategic vision of the strategists.
"I know roughly what he's talking about, it says he's hungry, you tie it with mechanical chains, and plug its mouth to make him eat less often, but this kind of insect is the type that eats and grows meat, and feeding it a vegetarian meal a week is at most just to relieve its appetite, and ah, this insect is a real carnivorous insect, you still give it too much definition, it says it's hungry and wants to eat meat, do you believe it?" As he spoke, Noste touched the iron chain with his hand, and a thought popped into his mind.
That's the name of the bug, and the current thoughts, although this is the first thought in the mind, but there are some things that don't mean that he can free it, the only way to get rid of it is to boil it until the middle of the mature stage, when it may be given a break, sent to the slaughterhouse, directly turned into a delicacy on the table, made into strings of bacon, canned food, and the gem meat formed in the center of the perennial vegetarian body, these are very valuable food reserves.
"Hahaha, it says he's hungry, and the trainer tells us how long it's been since he's eaten." The flat-headed auditor lowered his head and thought for a moment, then immediately responded.
"Well, it's been almost two weeks, it's so hungry, haven't you seen it lose weight?" The trainer pinched the time next to him and suddenly speculated.
Everyone was surprised, this news that no one knew beforehand, how could this man in front of him know, he just touched it just now, and he knew what happened, if it was just like this, it could not be presumed that he had a special ability in mind reading, so this test could not be completely presumed that he had passed.
"Do you want to continue testing? I know that just taking a test will never know if my abilities are real? You can go ahead and write questions, I'm fine. Having said that, the other auditors all turned to look at the leader on the side.
The leader pretended to cough in a low voice, and continued to laugh, "It's not as simple as you think, I don't believe you have this ability, if you pass the next assessment, then you will pass, you can't say the conclusion too early, show me his report, I need more accurate test results." ”
"Captain, his results are out." The auditor on the side ran over from outside with a roar, clutching a report in his hand, like a medical report sent from the hospital.
The team leader didn't expect the report to be sent so quickly, just shouted, this is really efficient, really fast, after thinking about it, he nodded and took the report from the other party's hand, "Okay, you go out." ”
The animal trainer over there seemed to understand the situation, and immediately increased the current with an electric baton, holding the bracelet on the side of the sticky worm with one hand, and hitting the weak point of the opponent with a stick with the other, and the roar suddenly resounded, and it was in this way that it was forced to move forward.
At first, the sticky sticky worm still looked like it was not going to give up because it didn't eat, but after the increase of the electric current, it seemed to come to the spirit, and slowly stabilized after smashing a corner of the wall, "Beast, slow down, if you break something, you will be compensated by your flesh, you brute, go to death, continue to give me away, don't pretend to be dead." The trainer's voice shouted, and the electric baton continued to swing upward, but this time no matter how hard he hit the armyworm, it lay on the ground and did not move, dying of anger and starving to death, two weeks is the physiological limit.
