Volume 6 The Siege Chapter 22 Fossil Worms

From the moment they entered the land, the big dogs were very uneasy and wary of their surroundings, as if something very dangerous was around them. As a creature born and raised on this land, the first thing to survive is not strength, but vigilance. Only if you are quite vigilant will you not be hurt by sudden attacks.

"To be honest, the location where we landed is not very good, it is only a dozen axioms away from the Gobi Fury, and although we are already far from its territory, we still can't relax our spirits yet. The Gobi Fury is an underground super-creature whose body is made up of dozens or even hundreds of gigantic fossil worms that devour everything they do, even rocks and metals. The best way to avoid them is not to cause any vibrations on the ground, but it is clear that this is not an option, because it is more dangerous in the sky than on the ground. ”

Alos explained to Wang Wei the situation that everyone is facing now, maybe it is that humans spend more time communicating together, and as a node of the magic network, Alos and Youli speak more naturally than each other.

"What the hell is this?"

According to Alos's description, Wang Wei felt that this thing looked like some kind of ambush creature.

"It's a collection of large fossil worms that think together, and even Evanses at the time couldn't understand what this assemblage of creatures was. But the only thing that is certain is that this thing is always very hungry. They are constantly angry about hunger and not being able to find food quickly. ”

Ellios said.

"They usually hide underground, and as soon as any creature relaxes its vigilance a bit, they immediately open their mouths and swallow the creature on the ground into their stomachs along with the surrounding rocks. It is said that this sandworm is very dry on its own, and it takes nearly three days to digest a living being, and due to the peculiarity of his stomach juice, any digested creature will not die until the brain is digested, and they will suffer very terrifying torture. ”

"No one wants to be a sandworm's lunch. ”

Even Alos was terrified when he brought it up.

"So how do we get away from this kind of thing?"

Emily, who was sitting on the back of the big dog next to her, interjected and asked, she was not afraid of being digested, no matter how terrifying the digestive juice was, it was not a pleasure to be swallowed by insects all the time, she decided to ask.

"It's actually very recognizable. ”

Alos said with a smile.

"When it appeared, the ground would have the undulation of a snake marching through a pile of sand, and it would be accompanied by the vibrations of the ground, and we could see it far away because of its size. Be careful, though, as its body is a collection of countless fossil worms, once it does, it is very likely that they will surround everyone from all sides, but there is basically no need to worry, because there are so many of us now, and it has no other attack ability than to attack from below, unless it is hungry, we are generally safe. ”

Alos gave everyone a relief pill.

"I'm not sure for anything else, but I do know that the so-called Gobi Fury must be hungry by now, and can't wait to eat. ”

Wang Wei said with a sudden smile.

"Oh, how do you know?"

The master, who had been listening quietly, asked interestingly.

"Because it didn't even hide, it just caught up. ”

Wang Wei stretched out his hand and pointed behind him, sure enough. On the route that everyone had just passed, the gravel and dirt were pushed aside by the huge impact, and in the thick dust, a huge, train-like black giant worm was rushing up at an incredible speed!

The big dogs, who had been walking leisurely for a long time, suddenly became nervous, and from Wang Wei's understanding of these big dogs, they were a group of over-strengthened ordinary creatures. Aside from their surprising ability to resist hits and a certain amount of strength, they basically don't have much offensive means. Compared to the menacing Gobi Fury, these big dogs were a full two circles smaller in size at first.

Yuri busied herself on the soothing of the nervous creatures while the big dogs sped up immediately.

Under normal circumstances, the Gobi Fury rarely leave their nests for unknown reasons, and as long as the creatures they are chasing escape far enough, they will certainly not waste their physical strength to chase them. But today's situation is obviously very special, this train-sized bug is not only chasing as if it has not been poured aphrodisiac, but also chasing faster and faster. God knows how its bulky body managed to run faster than a big dog.

"It doesn't matter, we keep running at this speed, the fossil worms are heavy, although they are amazingly explosive, but there is no way to do a long-distance chase, as long as we keep running, he will eventually give up. ”

Allos said to Wang Wei while looking at the flying sand and rocks behind him.

"I have reservations about it. ”

Wang Wei shook his head and took out a monocular from his pocket.

"Is this something in captivity?"

Wang Wei looked through the binoculars, and then asked Aloos.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. This thing is called the Gobi Fury, the reason is that the intelligence of this kind of thing is very low, it is a creature that only survives by physiological reactions, and it cannot be said to be in captivity if it cannot communicate. You know, even the most basic captivity requires the intelligence of the creatures themselves. ”

Yuri refused.

"So what is this?"

Wang Wei handed the binoculars to Youli, who took it and immediately looked at Wang Wei in disbelief.

"That's not captivity, it's controlled! That's the brain worm, a fragile life that can control other creatures by controlling the brains of other creatures, and it actually controls the leader worm of the fossil worm!"

The Gobi Fury is a collection of countless fossil worms that synthesize and communicate information in a manner similar to that of basic neurons to achieve an ability to simulate higher-order thinking. To achieve this ability, a Boss Worm is needed to act as a bridge for information exchange. The size of the fossil worms is very large, they can almost grow to a length of hundreds of meters with the thickness of a train, and their nests are deep underground, hundreds of such fossil worms are together, there is no difference in their appearance between them, and no one can find the location of the leader worm at all. And even if the Boss Bug is killed, a new Boss Bug will appear. That's why this kind of Zerg, who became the Gobi Fury, is so rampant in this land.

"You seem to have said that this thing actually lives in groups. ”

Wang Wei said worriedly. As he spoke, dust and gravel flew over the horizon that had been running their escape route twice.

Fossil bugs, more fossil bugs!

"So handsome!"

Wang Wei stood on the back of the big dog and looked around, and in the middle was a pair of big dogs running wildly. To their left, right, and behind them, a massive swarm of fossil insects was slowly closing in on everyone in between. If it was usual, Wang Wei would have picked up the camera and pinched a photo out a long time ago. But now doesn't seem to be the time, because it's getting worse.

The big bugs were getting closer and closer, and more bugs had surrounded the entire marching team, and Wang Wei noticed that the big bugs could reach this speed just by wriggling on the ground, which was more practical than any siege weapon if a set of battering rams were installed on top of their heads.

Standing on top of the head of the Leader Worm was a creature that looked like a jellyfish, and its tentacles pierced into the Leader Worm's head. A big round head with two pairs of bright eyes was looking at the people who were still running wildly.

"Intruders, you have violated the territory of the Gobi lords, only to become food, food!"

Spoken!

Actually spoken?

Wang Weile is happy.

It was obviously the leader worm who spoke, and the language coming out of its large mouth full of sharp teeth was indistinct, but it was almost still recognizable.

Wang Wei looked at the jellyfish head without saying a word, directly took out a brick and threw it far away, although Wang Wei's brute force was enough to make this brick fly the distance between himself and the jellyfish head, but the power was obviously not very good. The gray titanium alloy plate bricks clearly hit the head of the jellyfish head, and directly imprinted the traces of the quadrilateral.

"Attack! Food!"

The big worm roared, and a group of big bugs around him who were also chasing rushed up at the same time.

"Dream Squad! Attack!"

Emily flashed her sword and jumped on the fossil insects as they approached. The sharp heel pierced into the tough skin of the insects. The originally hard rock skin couldn't do much in front of the star iron.

When the Star Iron Girls left, the big dogs were taken back by Yuri to avoid being injured by mistake, and the originally huge escape team immediately only left the three big dogs still watching the wild run, but the speed was faster.

The fossil worm that was pounced on by the Star Iron Girl let out a fierce roar and rolled back and forth on the ground at the same time, and its speed slowed down significantly. The three big dogs immediately rushed out of the encirclement and galloped wildly into the distance, and in less than half an hour, they were about to approach the location of the anchor point, where there was still the breath of the Lord of Ten Billion Yuan Mei Zhuo, and no creature dared to approach.

Perhaps discovering Wang Wei's intentions, the controlled leader worm immediately rushed up from behind.
