Chapter 115: Creel's Secret
From behind the fallen corpse of the Worm King, a figure that was very short compared to the Worm Monster, but tall enough for a human, was revealed. After the death of the insect king, the bugs were slightly confused for a moment, but after this figure appeared, they quickly regained their calm, lined up again, and showed their mouthparts and claws at Kril Laina. Obviously, this newly emerged figure has replaced the four-armed insect king in an instant, and has temporarily become the current swarm commander!
The newborn Bug King strolled over the massive four-armed Bug King's corpse to Creel and Raina, and it was only then that the two of them saw the true face of the mysterious figure.
This creature is also supposed to be a bug monster, with a roughly humanoid body structure, about two meters tall, and an extremely majestic body, covered in carapaces, covered with sharp edges and corners, and even long spines at the joints. Its left hand is a huge claw with sharp nails, while its right hand, starting from the elbow, gradually transforms into a long bone blade, this bone blade is wide and long, more than one meter five, and the tip and blade even have a silver metallic luster, which looks extremely sharp!
Looking at the face of the insect king again, the shadow of a human can still be vaguely seen, but now most of it has been covered by a hard carapace, and the hair has become thick and sharp tentacles, straight up; The jaw that was supposed to belong to a human had also been split from the middle, split into two halves of sharp fangs, and a tongue divided into several lobes spit out from the inside, swaying on the outside with saliva, looking terrifying and disgusting.
Creel and Raina saw the insect king's face, and their eyes widened in surprise. But it's not because of that terrible appearance, but because this face is so familiar!
"Violent ...... Tyrannosaurus? Raina's jaw trembled, and she spat out the name of the man she remembered most closely resembling the monster in front of her...... No, it should be said that this monster now is completely a tyrannosaurus rex transformed into a worm!
"Hahahaha, you useless guy!" Before Raina could slow down, Creel on the side suddenly burst out laughing: "You chose this method, do you think that if you become such a disgusting monster, you can really defeat me?!" ”
The insect monster Tyrannosaurus ripped open its hideous mouthparts and let out a hoarse voice with a heavy metal style: "Can it?" You can give it a try! As soon as he finished speaking, the terrifying monster kicked on the ground with both feet, picked up its thick bone blade and attacked Creel! At the same time, all the insect monsters around them also launched an attack on the two of them!
The battle here, looking at it from above, looked like a flower stamen that had suddenly shrunk, and the insects and monsters in all directions advanced towards the center in unison, instantly submerging the two people in the Dark City. This is completely one-sided abuse, and the tyrannosaurus is not the young insect king who was born less than a day ago after all. As a once powerful adventurer, and even the leader of a team, whether it is combat experience or command ability, the tyrannosaurus is far stronger than that poor newborn. In the face of such an enemy, Kril and Raina, who had been struggling in the hive for more than ten minutes, finally found it difficult to continue.
At this time, Xie Wen and Snow Owl, who were standing on the high ground from afar, watched coldly. Despite the distance, with the adventurer's superhuman eyesight and binoculars, they recognized the Tyrannosaurus rex from its familiar body shape and fighting style. The two were also surprised that the Tyrannosaurus had become the new insect king, but they didn't go down to help. One is this situation, the tyrannosaurus rex already has an absolute advantage, and the second is that since the death of Mandala, the tyrannosaurus's love has been very unstable, and now on the surface it seems that he is still opposed to the dark city, but who knows when he will have convulsions and lead the insects to slaughter indiscriminately.
"I really didn't expect that the savage captain to fall into such a situation where no people are not ghosts......" Snow Owl frowned and sighed: "But there are too many strange things in the world this time, first these weird bugs, then the strange patterns, and now even the tyrannosaurus boss has become a monster, I am really getting more and more chaotic......"
Xie Wen glanced at the troubled snow owl and smiled: "Don't be confused, this qiē, we are about to get the answer!" As he spoke, he turned his head back and raised his voice, "Right, Mr. Gourmet?" ”
The snowy owl turned his head in surprise to find Ma Le standing not far behind them. "Foodie, when are you ......"
Ma Le smiled and strode towards the two: "Boss Xie is so sharp, I deliberately lightened my pace, and I was discovered by you so far away!" ”
Xie Wen smiled: "Calculate the time, you should also come up." Let's talk about it, what is going on with this qiē? ”
Hearing Xie Wen's question, Ma Le pretended to be surprised and said, "You think I know?" ”
Xie Wen shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "The move you made to kill Yi Qifeng, if I'm not mistaken, should be absorbing, the ability from the Black Light Virus!" ”
Ma Le frowned slightly, but listened to Xie Wen continue: "The Black Light Virus, which comes from the Torture Prototype World, is the biggest feature of being able to devour a qiē creature to strengthen itself. This ability, even if you look at the entire urban warfare system, is also the most practical and rarest category. Speaking of which, I've heard that the Torture Archetype is also the most difficult level in the senior-level world, especially in the face of the powerful Black Light Lodge Alex, even elite-level adventurers dare not face it. And it is even more unheard of to be able to get a black light virus and successfully strengthen it. Gourmet, you are just an ordinary level, and you can obtain such a high level of ability, whether it is strength or luck, you can be called the top! ”
When the snowy owl on the side heard this, she opened her mouth wide in surprise, this absorption ability, she had already seen it in the Terminator world! At that time, Ma Le was still just an entry-level player!
The snow owl stammered and retorted, "Team, captain, you must be wrong...... Maybe something else...... What a similar ability to it......"
Xie Wen shook his head and said, "No, although there is more than one absorption ability, the absorption ability of the black light prototype has a unique effect, and that is to read memories!" With that, Xie Wen turned to Ma Le and said, "Gourmet, after you absorbed Yi Qifeng, you immediately found a way to deal with Golia, this can't be a coincidence, right?" ”
"Hahahaha......" Ma Le clapped his hands and laughed: "It's worthy of Boss Xie Wen, it's amazing." Yes, I did read Yi Qifeng's memory. Since you want to know, I will tell you the truth behind this competition! ”
Yi Qifeng's memory does hide a lot of shocking facts, and as Ma Le tells the story, Xie Wen and Snow Owl gradually solve several major mysteries in their hearts.
First of all, the world will be invaded by bugs, and it is indeed Creel's ghost. As Xie Wen and others speculated, this little ghost is indeed a Chosen One, and his Chosen Ability is to blend into the environment.
This integration is not the usual stealth, but a complete integration, one with the environment of this world, so blended that it is almost impossible to distinguish. Because of this principle, in addition to stealth, this ability also has a small effect, which is to exchange information with the world in which it is located.
If you compare the quest world to ink, then the average adventurer is a steel ball, throw the steel ball into the ink, you can still easily find it, and then take it out and wipe it clean, this steel ball is still a steel ball. Creel, on the other hand, is more like a drop of water, you put it into the ink, and it blends in completely, and you can't find it at all. Even if you use a special method to take out this drop of water the size of clear water, it will no longer be the original clear and transparent drop. This drop will have the color of the ink, and if you drip it close to another color of ink, the color it will carry will even affect the new bottle of ink.
This is the case now, Creel comes into contact with various environments and creatures in the post-apocalyptic world, and at the same time obtains information about this world, and stores it in his own body. And when he entered the Vajra World, the information he carried on his body allowed him to contact the Insect Plague World, and with this, he opened the door to the Insect Plague World and brought these insect monsters here!
This ability is indeed overbearing, but correspondingly, the price is not small. First of all, to complete this ability, a large amount of energy is required, and these energies are beyond the reach of an ordinary adventurer. Therefore, when Creel exerts his power, all the contestants on the Dark City side stand by his side, using their bodies to provide him with energy and share the burden.
In addition to this, this ability has a fatal limitation, and that is that the information stored in Zài Creel's body does not last long. Over time, this information can only be kept for a maximum of 12 hours. And this time follows Creel, and has nothing to do with the speed of time in the real world or the mission world, as long as Creel himself has experienced 12 hours, this information will disappear.
Because of this, it is almost impossible for Creel to carry information from the previous mission world into the next mission, because in normal mode, the minimum interval between mission worlds is 7 days. Creel had also considered bringing the information from the mission world to the real world, but when he returned to reality, his own power would be greatly weakened, and the ability to choose the one that had been strengthened by the system would also be affected, and he would not be able to initiate this fusion at all. Therefore, until the King Kong World, Creel only speculated that he had this ability, but he had not used it once.
However, this overtime brought him a great opportunity! There was only a six-hour gap between extra-time and his final game, and as long as Creel didn't go to the training space, he could have brought the information here! It was also seizing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that Creel made a plan in just a few hours and planned this terrifying operation to summon the insect plague with others!
