0357 Ice Worm Eggs

In the dark and cold underground tunnel, Xiao Chu and Sasha were moving quickly along the newly opened tunnel of the ice worm. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because of the ability to open the claws, Xiao Chu's physical fitness and agility have been greatly improved, and his crawling speed has increased by at least three times compared to before.

Suddenly, Xiao Chu felt that his body was empty, his hands and feet suddenly lost their focus, and he was shocked, and in his panic, he was fortunate to open the armor of his whole body and give birth to a tail behind him, this tail was almost the same as the tail behind Ken after opening the armor, and it was also with an alloy barb at the top, although Xiao Chu's body lost support, the tail was instinctively flung back, and the alloy barb pierced deeply into the rock, and the whole person hung like a pendulum.

"What's wrong!?" Hearing the noise ahead, Sasha hurriedly stopped, because they had been walking in the dark just now, so she couldn't see Xiao Chu's current condition.

"It's okay, there's a vertical hole here, I almost fell down......" Xiao Chu's voice came from the lower position in front of her, Sasha reached out and touched it forward, sure enough, there was nothing in front of her, and she suddenly felt a little panicked in her heart, fortunately she heard Xiao Chu's voice, and felt a lot more relieved, but she didn't find it, unconsciously, it seemed that she had regarded Xiao Chu as a kind of dependence.

A light suddenly appeared in front of him, and it turned out to be Xiao Chu lighting a small flame in the palm of his hand, illuminating the nearby space. It turned out that the tunnel in front of it intersected a vertical tunnel, but I didn't know the route that the ice worm had taken just now.

Sasha leaned forward and saw Xiao Chu falling at the intersection like a pendulum, the tail surprised her a little, but she still reached out to hold it, trying to help Xiao Chu climb up.

Xiao Chu suddenly spoke: "Wait! ”

"What's wrong?"

"There's something down here!" Xiao Chu stretched out his hand downward, wanting to illuminate the space below, but because the flame in his hand was too weak, the scope of light was really limited, so he had no choice but to turn on the special vision.

The situation of the space below was suddenly clear, the light would reflect after encountering the wall, so countless refracted rays outlined the outline of the space below, but it was a cave that was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, like a cylinder, very wide, and the bottom was at least five or six meters away from the top hole where Xiao Chu was at the moment.

However, what surprised Xiao Chu was that at the bottom of the cave, there seemed to be some objects that slightly emitted red light. In his special vision, only creatures infected with the zombie plague will emit red light.

"What's down there?" Sasha lay down in the cave and looked down, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything, but Xiao Chu still hung upside down at the entrance of the cave as if he couldn't hear him, and didn't react.

Sasha felt strange in her heart, and hurriedly pulled Xiao Chu's tail and asked, "Hey?" What happened to you? ”

"It's okay...... It's a little uncomfortable...... "In fact, Xiao Chu is trying to calm down the strong discomfort caused by special vision, it stands to reason that he only turned on it for a few seconds, and there will not be too many side effects, but because he is now hanging upside down, his brain is congested, and he is already a little dizzy, and he cares about turning on special vision, and suddenly feels that the world is spinning, and he almost didn't let him squirt out yesterday's dinner on the spot."

"You wait here, I'll go down and take a look, there seems to be something down there." After speaking, as soon as Xiao Chu's tail was loosened, the whole person fell down freely, and it was too late for Sasha to stop it.

The distance of five or six meters was not high for Xiao Chu, and after adjusting his body in mid-air, Xiao Chu landed on the hard rocky ground almost silently.

A trace of fresh air poured into Xiao Chu's nasal cavity, which made Xiao Chu feel shocked, obviously there is air flow in this cave, but I don't know where the fresh air comes from in this dark underground depth, Xiao Chu doesn't have time to think about it, since there is fresh air, he is not afraid of running out of oxygen, Xiao Chu's hand ignited a bright flame.

"This is ......" When Xiao Chu saw the scenery in front of him, he gasped, and in this vast space about half a football field, it was densely packed with countless giant insect eggs with a diameter of about half a meter!

The figure behind him flashed, but Sasha also followed, falling behind Xiao Chu, compared to Xiao Chu's beautiful landing before, Sasha is called truly silent, if it weren't for the flame in her hand that sashed because of Sasha's airflow, Xiao Chu wouldn't even be able to notice that she had arrived behind her.

"What are these? It won't be ......," Sasha said in shock when she saw the situation here.

"Maybe it's an ice worm's egg......"

"This amount...... It's too much...... "Looking at it, there are at least tens of thousands of insect eggs in the entire cave, and if all of them hatch into ice worms that are more than ten meters long, I am afraid that the Aryan city will be destroyed in an instant."

However, what Xiao Chu cared about was not the number of eggs, what he noticed was that a large part of these eggs seemed to have been infected with the zombie plague, otherwise, these eggs would never have shown red in his special vision.

However, with so many eggs, it shouldn't be possible that just one ice worm was born, right? Even in terms of volume, a single ice worm can hold a dozen such eggs at most, if this is calculated, doesn't so many eggs mean that there are thousands of ice worms?

Obviously, this does not seem to be a high possibility, if there really are so many ice worms, it is impossible that they have not been discovered all the time, and the nest of this ice worm is so close to Aryan City, it is impossible that there has only been one invasion in so many years.

But after all, he didn't come to investigate the ice worm, but only to find Bella and Old Tucker, how many ice worms these eggs would hatch had nothing to do with him, and, on the other hand, if the ice worms really invaded Aryan City, wouldn't they be able to take advantage of the fishermen? Destroying the Aryan city without a single soldier, and then Eden sending an armed force to exterminate these ice worms, it seems that the world will be at peace.

Xiao Chu thought about it for granted, and suddenly remembered Uncle Jeff and Aunt Laura, and felt that it seemed that he should find a way to stop these ice worms, because there seemed to be countless civilians like Uncle Jeff and Aunt Laura in Aryan City.

In fact, since coming to this Aryan city and living here for a few days, Xiao Chu's mind has changed, originally thought that this was the source of evil, but now, this is the largest human gathering place on the earth.

Xiao Chu cautiously approached an insect egg, and saw that the shell of the milky white insect egg was translucent, and an ice insect larvae about the thickness of an arm could be vaguely seen circling inside, but Xiao Chu vaguely felt a strange zombie-like aura coming from the egg.

"You're not going to ...... Take one, right? Sasha saw Xiao Chu wandering around the egg for a long time, and reached out to touch it twice, as if he had tried the weight, so he asked.

In fact, Xiao Chu really had this idea, and wanted to get one back for Emma to study, but the skin of this insect egg turned out to be soft, and it was too big, it was not easy to get rid of it, there was no way, Xiao Chu had to give up this idea.

"Let's go, let's go to Bella and Old Tucker first." Xiao Chu felt that if he continued to stay here, he would not get anything valuable, and it had been a long time since he entered this underground, so he decided to put aside the problem of these insect eggs for the time being, after all, this was not something he could do.

Sasha also nodded, the threat of this ice worm was beyond their ability, so it was better to leave it to the imperial army in Aryan City to deal with.

With Xiao Chu's current strength, it is not a problem to jump five or six meters high on the ground, Xiao Chu pulled Sasha's hand, and his legs were about to jump, but Sasha suddenly shouted: "Slow!" ”

Xiao Chu's legs were weak, one stumbled, and he almost fell to the ground, and immediately shouted dissatisfiedly: "Hey! You don't want to stop every time, okay? ”

In the tunnel just now, it was precisely because Sasha suddenly stopped moving forward that Xiao Chu would hit her ass with his face, and now she suddenly stopped, Xiao Chu only felt as if he couldn't use all the strength in the face of herself.

Sasha ignored Xiao Chu's complaints, but pointed in one direction and said urgently: "Look over there, it looks like light!" ”

"There is light?" Xiao Chu took a look, and sure enough, in the direction that Sasha was pointing, there seemed to be a small area of light purple light faintly flashing on the pitch-black wall.

Xiao Chu walked to the side of the wall and looked at it by the light of the fire in his hand, only to find that the wall was a lilac hexagonal crystal.

"Quartz crystals?" Xiao Chu remembered that he had seen this kind of quartz crystal in a science and education program broadcast on TV before, the crystal grew in a geometric shape, showing a very beautiful hexagon, and the pure quartz crystal should be colorless and transparent, but the quartz crystal here seemed to be mixed with a little magazine, showing light purple. Through that crystal, Xiao Chu seemed to be able to see the other side of the wall, and there seemed to be a vast space. And that faint light was actually transmitted from that space, through this crystal wall.

Xiao Chu's heart moved, his fingers turned into alloy blades, he hesitated slightly, but he still stretched out to the crystal wall, cutting them piece by piece, the alloy claws were extremely sharp, Xiao Chu quickly cut a small hole the size of a palm, and a cool breeze blew out of the hole.

It turned out that there would be fresh air in this cave, and it was through this crystalline gap that came from the other side of the wall.

Xiao Chu lay down in the small hole and looked in, and found that the space opposite was indeed bright, and it seemed that there was some kind of natural light source. (To be continued.) )
