Section 24 Aphids

Lilith, who was rescued, smiled silly as if she was drunk, as if she didn't feel the pain on her body. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 After the group threw her on the cart, they continued to set off. After all, it is not easy for people to come here, even women have extremely strong vitality. As long as you're alive and can still breathe, there's no big problem.

A few hours later, Lilith crawled up, the anesthetic effect of the insect venom had passed, but there were still other toxins left in her body, and it seemed as if there were thousands of small worms burrowing in the flesh/slit between her chest and abdomen, and she was itching to the point of going crazy. She asked Hagrid for an antidote, but was rejected on the spot, on the grounds that the antlion larvae's toxins were not lethal and could not be wasted.

In desperation, Lilith had no choice but to pull out the short knife, which was so itchy that she cut herself.

"Ah...... It hurts...... It hurts...... "Every time she finishes cutting, she screams for a long time.

The iron slag who was lying on the side resting was woken up by the sound, and watching her cut herself to the point and screaming, he couldn't bear it for a while, so he took out a dose of antidote serum from the academy from the package and threw it to her. But as soon as she took it, she found that it was a rare concentrated antidote serum, and then showed an indifferent expression, humming a little song and putting away the potion, preferring to continue to endure the itching rather than use it......

Looking at this little miser, Iron Slag couldn't help but roll his eyes, and ignored her anymore.

"Ah...... Ahhhh......h It hurts......" But it wasn't long before Lilith screamed again.

The iron slag, who was dozing off, was so annoyed that he tore off a canvas covered with supplies, and said to Lilith with his hands behind his back: "Come, open your mouth." ”

Lilith thought he was going to feed her medicine, so she obediently opened her little cherry mouth, and the iron slag shoved the cloth ball inside.

"Hmm...... Hmm......" Lilith, who had a ball of cloth in her mouth, immediately couldn't scream, and was about to spit it out, when a glittering coin of indulgence appeared in front of her.

"Don't spit it out, I'll give you this." The magnetic voice seduced.

"Hmm...... Hmmm......" Lilith nodded hurriedly, then snatched the coin and stuffed it into her pocket. At this moment, the Black Pig King, who was sitting on another material board truck, happened to turn his head, happened to see this scene, and immediately laughed.

When Lilith heard the laughter, she immediately followed the sound and stuck out her tongue at the Black Pig King, then pulled up the canvas covering the supplies and got inside.

The next day, Lilith's wound had scabbed, and it seemed that she also had the ability to restore the insect transformation type, otherwise the wound would not have healed so quickly. Iron Slag asked him sideways, but Lilith told him without concealment.

"I have the ability to regenerate aphids." Lilith whispered while there was no one around.

"Rare-grade regeneration ability?" Iron Slag hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "What's the difference between it and insect regeneration?" "Bi Qinglan has this ability, but at the beginning, the ebony elder only told him the name, but did not say the specific effect.

Lilith then explained that insect regeneration is a basic-level ability, so it can recover quickly, but it can't repair permanent trauma, such as the loss of an organ or a broken limb. Aphid regeneration can achieve organ regeneration and rebirth of severed limbs.

"Sounds good." Iron Slag commented.

"Actually......" Lilith hesitated for a moment, then bit her lip and said with determination, "Aphid regeneration has a very nasty flaw, and the mutated gene fragments can only exist in the gene chain of female insectants, and are completely ineffective against male insectizers. ”

Among the insect abilities, some abilities are gender-restricted, such as the male ant glands of iron slag, which can only be absorbed by males, and even if females absorb them, they will not have any effect.

"What flaw?" Iron Slag asked casually.

"Ah......" Lilith blushed in the face of his question and whispered, "This is a girl's secret, I can't tell you." ”

Ironslag looked expressionless and took out a coin of indulgence.

"I really can't say ......," Lilith said, bowing her head and blushing.

Iron Slag took out another indulgence coin.

"I can't say ...... death," I saw her pull the corners of her clothes hard and insist.

Iron Slag then put away the coins and didn't ask any more questions.

"Don't you want to know?" Seeing that the cooked duck had flown away, Lilith quickly raised her head and asked.

The iron slag grinned, but said nothing, because he had already guessed it......

Looking at his expression, Lilith was silent for a while, and finally sighed resentfully and said, "Maybe you thought you guessed, but things are not as simple as you think. ”

In the face of her temptation, Iron Slag was indifferent, leaned back, fell asleep on the pile of supplies.

"Hmph~" Lilith glanced at the iron slag in the fake sleep and muttered to herself, "Even if you give more money, I won't tell you ......"

In fact, the iron slag only guessed one of them, but not the second and third......

Historically, female insectizers with aphid regeneration have been the coveted companions of male insectizers, and indeed of all male humans.

Aphids, also known as honey worms, have a harmonious symbiotic relationship with ants and can secrete honey dew containing sugar. In addition, female aphids are not only fertile, reproducing for ten to thirty generations a year, but also possess the ability to "parthenogenesis" and do not need males to conceive. The particularity of "aphid regeneration" lies in the fact that in addition to the regeneration ability of limbs and organs, it also inherits other characteristics of aphids.

However, female insectizers with aphid regeneration are extremely rare, and the vast majority of people are unaware of the benefits of this ability, and even fewer are informed about the research and discussion of the ability to completely ban insectization in the Temple and the World Parliament. Even Bi Qinglan back then only learned about the characteristics of this ability after consulting a large number of ancient books, and she tore these ancient books to shreds on the spot and threw them into the furnace. As a result, there is one less information in this world that records the regeneration of aphids, at least in the temple of the spirit snake.

About half an hour later, the team passed through an open field, and the surrounding fog suddenly surged, as if the space had been distorted. Seeing such a scene, the faces of the hunters at the front of the team suddenly changed, and they ran to the rear and shouted loudly: "Run! Run! There are a large number of cemetery marching ants ahead! There are a large number of cemetery marching ants ahead! ”

As soon as the roar fell, the sound of rustling came like an overwhelming wave, like a hurricane sweeping through the entire area. Suddenly, even Hagrid, who had always been calm, showed a look of horror.

The Cemetery Marching Ant, one of the most feared beings in the Southern Cemetery, is at the very top of the food chain. Although their individual strength is limited, their numbers are extremely large, and when they move, they act like a flood that bursts its banks, leaving no grass and bones everywhere in the impact. Even if it is an insect wolf pack, it is necessary to retreat.

Looking at the abandoned materials and running wildly, the iron slag did not retreat but advanced, opened its membrane wings and jumped into the air, and flew forward.

"S......queak s

In an instant, an indescribably dense hissing sound came from below. Through the faint mist, I saw that the ground was crawling with dense bright red ants, like sloping flowing water, and the human scalp was numb.

The reason why Iron Slag didn't escape was because he had already consulted the information of the cemetery marching ants and had a way to deal with it. In terms of numbers alone, no creature can match his Scout Ant.

"Old Five! Old Five! ”

Between thoughts, a rough voice came from behind him. Turning his head, Hagrid was flapping his membranous wings and daring towards him.

"Let's go, if you fall, you'll die." Hagrid said hurriedly.

"It's okay, I have a way to deal with them." After speaking, Iron Slag took off a fragmentation grenade, and with a "bang", he bit open the pull ring and smashed it.

Two seconds later, there was a sudden flash of fire below, "Boom! With a loud sound, countless stumps and severed arms mixed with sand and juice rushed into the sky, and waves of air rushed towards him, opening up a large area of mist. Immediately afterwards, a mouthful of saliva from the iron slag spat into the center of the explosion.

A moment later, countless smaller, red-winged ants emerged from the pile of corpses of the cemetery's marching ants, flapping their membranous wings and flying into the air.

"Bu......zz Bu

A few minutes later, hundreds of Scout ants formed a red cloud over the marching ant colony.

Looking at the astonishing sight ahead, Hagrid's mouth opened involuntarily.

"Up!"

After the assembly, Iron Slag moved his mind and commanded the soldiers to launch an attack. Compared to the cemetery marching ants, which are the size of domestic cats, the Scout ant ants are much smaller, but because of their small size, the roles of the two sides are reversed.

The hunter becomes the prey.

"S......queak s

The soldier ant colony swooped down from above and pounced on the marching ant colony. The battle was one-sided from the start, and the cemetery marching ants couldn't do anything about the scout ants on their backs.

Somewhere in the fight, several Scout ants raised their long pointed forefeet and stabbed the ant's abdomen. Once immobilized, they spread their sharp mouthparts, leaned down and bit down on the carapace beneath them, then twisted their necks desperately, and finally tore open large wounds with a forceful flick, then devoured flesh and blood while injecting new parasitic cells. The next moment, the marching ant hissed violently, twitched all over, and shrunk into a ball on the ground. It didn't take long for new soldiers to emerge from the wound in its abdomen and pounce on the next target.

Bit, devour, hatch!

In less than a quarter of an hour, the red tide turned into thousands and thousands, forming an overwhelming trend, sweeping the entire marching ant colony.

Screaming, struggling, and scattering!

Standing at the top of the cemetery food chain, looking down on the cemetery marching ants, at this moment, they are like a fat cake, cut into pieces, and eaten without leaving a piece of armor.

They were in disarray, fleeing in all directions, in fear for the rest of their lives, until at last, all but some of them fled into the depths of the mist.
