Chapter 60: Entering the Hive by Mistake
Regarding Wu Ming's question, he soon made a bold speculation.
Insect people have a very simple habit, they need to eat and reproduce, and there are only two things they need to do to do this, one is to eat people, and the other is to constantly look for a parasitic human body.
There is no doubt that after being 'mistaken for' death by these wormmen, they must have mistaken themselves as corpses and had to be dragged back for the larvae to parasitize.
In other words, you are likely to be dragged into the 'hive'.
The scene Wu Ming saw next confirmed his guess. A lot of substances like ** began to appear along the road, a thick layer, soft and tough texture, and you can see a lot of things similar to blood vessels transporting some kind of liquid in it.
Wu Ming didn't move, continued to pretend to be dead, and let the wormmen drag him over. This is also a helpless thing, there are too many insects shuttling along the road, if Wu Ming shows a flaw at this time, he will definitely be attacked again, and Wu Ming will not dare to guarantee that the alloy vitality iron armor will not be scrapped.
So, Wu Ming could only let the insect man drag him along, all the way forward, I don't know how many forks he passed, and then he arrived in a relatively large crypt.
Attached to the ** around the cave, there will be a lot of pus pockets of different sizes raised, which seem to be filled with some kind of liquid, and this liquid has a characteristic, that is, it can emit a faint light, and because of this, the whole wormhole can see things clearly, so as not to reach out and lose sight of the five fingers.
Along the way, Wu Ming saw a lot of large burrowing beetles that had attacked the safe zone before, and it turned out that these beetles also belonged to the same kind of insect people, and were responsible for digging underground wormholes for them.
The insect man dragging Wu Ming threw Wu Ming in this crypt and turned his head to leave, Wu Ming's eyes opened a slit, but he saw the scene of the entire crypt.
If you change to a more timid person, you will definitely be scared to death at this time.
The entire crypt was the size of a basketball court, but it was filled with human corpses, densely packed, layer upon layer, at least thousands. There are men, women, and children, but most of them are young people, because young people are more physically energetic, and the stronger they are after parasitism. And these are complete corpses, no too serious wounds, and it is better to be parasitized by larvae.
At this time, Wu Ming discovered that at the top of this crypt, there was a huge flesh sac, constantly wriggling, and there were thousands of holes on it, and from time to time, from the hole in the meat sac, a 'larvae' of twenty or thirty centimeters long, like a prawn.
The larvae crawled out, made a squirming sound, and quickly fell, then selected a corpse to burrow into the corpse's mouth.
The whole process is like a scene in a horror movie, the parasitic larva violently tears through the corpse's mouth, burrows into the throat, and parasitizes the ribcage, while its tail grows a pair of insect teeth that emerge through the corpse's mouth. The corpse began to convulse, let out an inexplicable roar, and soon rose from the ground as a newborn worm.
"This is their breeding ground!" Wu Ming scolded secretly, this is obviously not a good thing for himself who has not yet recovered his strength, sure enough, as soon as Wu Ming thought of this, he saw a larva falling from the meat sac on his head, and with a snap, it just landed less than two meters away from him.
Then, I saw that the larva, which was still covered in disgusting mucus, moved three pairs of worm limbs and began to crawl towards itself.
"Damn, it's not good for you to choose so many corpses, choose me!" Wu Ming scolded secretly, but he was thinking about what to do to avoid being 'exploded' by such a disgusting thing.
At the moment, Wu Ming has not fully recovered, but his body can move, so Wu Ming crawls slowly, trying to avoid this parasitic larva, only hoping that it can divert the target and look for other corpses to parasitize.
But this newborn larva seemed to think that Wu Ming was the same, and it was chasing after him, Wu Ming didn't dare to move too much to be discovered by the insects around him, seeing that the larva had crawled to a place less than one meter away from him, at this time, Wu Ming had an idea, but he immediately chose to face down and put his face on the bodies of other corpses.
What Wu Ming thinks about is to plug his mouth and see how you parasitize.
Sure enough, the larva crawled over but couldn't find the entrance, and wanted to turn Wu Ming up, but the larva couldn't turn under Wu Ming's force, and the alloy vitality iron armor on Wu Ming's body still had a defensive effect, so he was not afraid that it would enter the body from other parts of the body.
Soon, the larva lost interest in Wu Ming and began to crawl onto the corpse on the side to parasitize.
Wu Ming, who had escaped the catastrophe, immediately moved his body slowly and crawled towards the outside of the wormhole, staying where he was was obviously not a wise move, because the risk of being discovered was too high.
This process is full of thrills, but obviously Wu Ming's luck is good, ten minutes later, he has already hid in a small cave without insects and larvae, and then closed the entrance with soil, leaving only a few holes for ventilation, and then he collapsed on the ground, and after a while, a wave of fatigue hit, and Wu Ming fell asleep directly.
When Wu Ming woke up again, he didn't know how long it had been.
For the current Wu Ming, there are several good news and bad news, the good news is that he is safe here for the time being, no insect people have found here, and the injuries on his body have also recovered some after sleeping. The bad news is that he can't escape from the dangerous wormhole for the time being, and the passages here lead in all directions, and Wu Ming doesn't know how to get out at all.
Either way, recovery is the most important thing.
In the next few days, Wu Ming hid in this cave to nourish his body, and when he was hungry, he took out bread from the physical card to satisfy his hunger, and when he was thirsty, he also had water, and as an awakened person, his physical fitness far exceeded that of a normal person, which also meant that his recovery ability was much better than that of a normal person.
Other times, Wu Ming is studying the vitality formula and the ** in the wormhole, of course, sometimes I am also thinking about Li Xia and Liu Bin in my heart, whether they have successfully broken through and left Yucheng, but according to Wu Ming's estimate, they will definitely encounter the resistance of monsters in the future, and whether they can successfully break through can only depend on themselves.
Thinking of this, Wu Ming smiled bitterly, and secretly said that he had lost a lot this time, and when he became a hero, he almost put his life in it, and he also lost the purpose of the troll coolie, but no matter what, it could only be so in that situation at that time, because what the rock giant really wanted to find was himself, otherwise he would not be able to be led away so easily.
It's just that it's useless to think about these things at this time, put these thoughts down for the time being, and then when studying the ubiquitous ** in the wormhole, Wu Ming made a discovery, when he tried to pierce the ** blood vessels-like pipes with his insect teeth, but a lot of green liquid flowed out of it.
These liquids contain very powerful vitality, which should be the 'nutrient solution' of parasites, since they have vitality, Wu Ming can card them and make them into cards.
Clamping a small pool of green liquid consumed two units of vitality, and Wu Ming got a card.
"Hive nutrient solution, material card, can be used to make a variety of medicines, can save dying insect people, contains vitality, other uses are unknown!"
In the new shijie, there are a lot of material cards like this that I don't know the specific purpose, and according to the principle of making material cards, as long as it is something with vitality, it can be carded. There were people who bought that kind of bizarre card and sold it at a high price, and it is said that there were people who actually bought it, but they didn't know what they were used for.
After Wu Ming made a few of these cards, he lost interest and felt that it would be a waste of vitality to make them again. However, just a few days later, Wu Ming once again became strongly interested in this kind of thing, because of a discovery he made by accident.
Wu Ming, who was trapped in the hive, was sorting out the cards that day, and suddenly found that in his card album, the 'Broken Millennium Gargoyle' card actually emitted strange fluctuations in vitality.
Wu Ming naturally remembered the mysterious screams he heard outside Secretary Wang's villa that day, which made him later find the remains of a broken gargoyle, Wu Ming pulled out this card at this moment, and sure enough, he could feel the vitality fluctuations attached to the card, which were very strong, just like a runaway creature about to break out of the card.
After carefully sensing it with Yuan Qi, Wu Ming was even more sure of his feelings, this card was really constantly sending out Yuan Qi fluctuations, as if it was conveying some information.
There is no doubt that this is a strange thing, a big strange thing.
Even in the three years of the new Shijie survival in the previous life, Wu Ming had never encountered this kind of thing, and any creature, once it was stuck, could no longer emit any fluctuations, even the legendary creature Rafi.
But this one card is an exception.
Wu Ming grabbed this card and felt the vigorous vitality on it, which was already a little out of control, which meant one thing, the card might be automatically activated.
It's like an ownerless card in the wild.
This is definitely not Wu Ming's illusion, at this moment, the card began to vibrate, and some cracks appeared on it, obviously, the card state could no longer bind the things inside.
Wu Ming, for the sake of safety, threw this card out before it was about to get out of control. The next moment, the card clicked and the card status was lifted.
