Chapter 16: Birth
"My purpose, you don't have to worry about it, I won't let you suffer losses anyway!" Xu Mo said with a smile.
"These beetles have very low intelligence, but once we are spotted by the mother, they will swarm up, and we don't have much time to bury the alien in the mother's body." Xie Qian said worriedly.
"It's impossible for everything to go as planned, we know too little about these beetles, and some things can't be judged yet, but I believe we have a chance!" Xu Mo pondered for a moment and said, "Even if we can't control the mother worm for too long, as long as we bury the alien in its body, the threat of other beetles to us will be greatly reduced, after all, it is a low-level creature without intelligence." ”
"Okay!" Xie Qian said with a wry smile, now, on Xu Mo's thief ship, he can only take one step at a time.
"Look how the little things are doing!" Xu Mo gently placed the medical box on the ground and opened the lid. As soon as the lid was opened, a small black shadow popped out of the medical kit and fled outside. It seems that the alien has long since adapted to the dormant mist, and has been hiding inside waiting for the opportunity to escape.
"Humph!" Xu Mo snorted coldly, and with a lightning-like probe with one arm, three fingers accurately pinched the little alien's head in mid-air.
"Squeak~~~" The little alien let out a shrill scream, its evolution has not yet been completed, the organs in the body are still translucent, the epidermis is wrinkled and lacks water, and it looks very weak.
"Oh no, do it!" As soon as the voice of the little alien came out, Xu Mo turned out from behind the rock, took an instantaneous step, and pounced on the mother worm.
The screams of the little alien were extremely harsh in the cave, and as soon as the female worm who was eating in the distance heard the strange sound, her fat body stiffened, and she let out a dull hissing sound, and the golden-veined beetles that were guarding around the cave immediately crawled towards Xu Mo and the others.
The distance between Xu Mo's hiding place and the mother worm was about more than 100 meters, and relying on the instantaneous high speed, Xu Mo crossed more than half of the distance in a blink of an eye. However, at this time, there were already more than a dozen golden-veined beetles in front of the female beetle.
More than a dozen golden-veined beetles in front of the female insect saw Xu Mo's approach, and their six chelicerae flicked, and they pounced on Xu Mo fearlessly. "Lean against the mountain!" Xu Mo's face sank, his head bowed and his shoulders sank, the phantom of the mountains behind him flashed, and the whip-like black hair on the back of the Predator's head flew up.
Although the golden-veined beetle is a high-level soldier in this beetle family, after all, the individual strength is too low, and it was hit by Xu Mo's "leaning against the mountain", and they exploded in the air, and the stump and broken armor mixed with the smelly liquid were scattered all over the ground.
"Snort!" Seeing that all the guards in front of her were wiped out, the mother worm let out two panicked insect calls. The fat body struggled to squirm on the ground, and the six fleshy vestigial chelicera were also struggling to paddle, but they didn't climb a meter after trying for a long time. The motility of the mother beetle has been completely degraded, leaving only two functions: feeding and reproduction and laying eggs.
Swarms of beetles have also appeared at the mouths of the numerous tunnels around the cave, and it is clear that these social beetles have their own set of methods of communication. It's just that Xu Mo is now in front of the mother worm, and no amount of support for the beetle can alleviate the crisis of the mother worm.
"Hiss!" Seeing Xu Mo standing in front of him, the compound eyes of the female worm's head flashed with a fierce light, and the two jaws snorted at Xu Mo, wanting to intimidate the opponent in front of him, who was much smaller than himself. It's just that after seeing Xu Mo's indifference, he hurriedly shrank his body back, looking like he was very indifferent.
"If you want to eat me, then I'll give it to you!" The Predator incarnated by Xu Mo took a sharp step forward and stabbed the forearm that was holding the little alien into the mouth of the mother worm.
There was a sticky and slippery feeling on his arm, which made Xu Mo feel a little nauseous, but the little alien pinched on the tips of his fingers burst out with powerful power at this time, wanting to break free from Xu Mo's control and enter the body of the mother worm.
"It's not enough!" Xu Mo roared wildly, and stabbed his entire arm into the female worm's body again, and even inserted his shoulder into the female worm's body.
"Hmm~~~" the mother worm let out a painful scream. The mouthparts of the female worm have completely degenerated, and even the keratinized jaw basically only has the function of pushing the food entrance, and the usual feeding is the other beetles to chew the prey first, decompose it into a mass of gelatin, and then regurgitate it to ruminate, how can you have experienced such a rough behavior as Xu Mo.
Hearing the screams of the mother, the other beetles in the cave fell into a rage and accelerated towards the mother.
"Hmph, give me death!" Xu Mo smiled cruelly, and the forearm that went deep into the female worm's body was cocked upward, and with a "poof", the iron-blooded tooth sickle popped out of the female worm's body, and the sharp wrist knife pierced out of the female worm's head, giving the female worm an intracranial surgical operation.
The body of the mother worm shook, and the six chelicerae stood up suddenly, and for the first time in her life, she lifted her abdomen off the ground with the strength of six vestigial chelicera. But he only froze for a moment, and then "poof! Suddenly, he fell to the ground again, and the six chelicerae trembled spasmodically.
After destroying the brain of the mother worm, Xu Mo flicked his fingers and flicked the small alien shape in the palm of his hand into the depths of the mother worm's body, and then pulled the whole arm out of the mother worm's body, turned over and jumped, and stood on the back shell of the mother worm.
"Pull, pull me!" Xie Qian had just run in front of the female worm at this time, with several wounds all over his body. If it weren't for Xu Mo's behavior that attracted the attention of all the beetles, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to run to the mother worm, and he would be killed by the other golden-veined beetles in the cave.
Although these golden-veined beetles are not in Xu Mo's eyes, they are still very powerful in dealing with Xie Qian, a newcomer reincarnation whose physical fitness is not much different from ordinary people, as long as there are three golden-veined beetles surrounding him, Xie Qian can only helplessly become the feces of the beetles.
Xie Qian put a bitter face on Xu Mo's slimy arm that had just been pulled out of the female worm's body, grabbed the gap in the female worm's carapace, and also climbed up the female worm's back shell.
"The mother worm is dead?" Looking at the beetles crawling all over the ground, Xie Qian asked softly.
"Well, I didn't expect these beetles to react so quickly, I had to kill the mother worm first. Otherwise, with the command of the female worm, we will die here! Xu Mo said a little helplessly.
"Dead mother, can that alien larvae still be parasitized?" Xie Qian frowned.
"In my world, beetle-like creatures are very strong. I once read a rumor that some types of beetles were decapitated and it took three days for their bodies to die completely. If this beetle has strong vitality, even if the brain is destroyed by me, the body will not die for the time being, and it is estimated that the alien can parasitize successfully. Xu Mo bent his knees and sat down on the wide back shell of the female worm.
After the mother died, the beetles in the entire cave calmed down and crawled on the ground, but instinctively, only the maggot-like larvae existed within five meters of the mother.
"Take a break, it will take some time for that alien to re-evolve, if the alien has not evolved the ability to reproduce, I will give you a mission!" Xu Mo lay flat on the broad back shell of the female worm, pillowed one arm under his head, closed his eyes and recuperated.
Xie Qian looked at Xu Mo and sat down as well, but his mind was full of the situation just now when Xu Mo brutally smashed more than a dozen golden-veined beetles with a mountain leaning, "Is this the power of a senior reincarnation?" Xie Qian clenched his fists, and his eyes glowed with brilliance.
About two hours later, the two men who had closed their eyes opened their eyes at the same time, looked at each other cautiously, and stood up from the back of the mother. They feel that a dark and evil force is awakening in the mother worm's body, and a new alien is about to be born!
