Chapter 15 Artillery Infantry Armor
The location of the captured hunter was named the second level of the Twisted Jungle, and at the bottom of the forest was a vast area of glowing moss and the remains of dirt and plants, and the second layer was another new world.
Fly up the main trunk of the twisted tree for about ten meters, and you can reach it, the environment here is full of thick and twisted trunks crisscrossing it, like countless dancing tentacles, their growth is irregular, and this place will be completely shrouded in darkness at night, and no light can reach this position.
In this dark and complex environment, the pilot's belly glows and flies towards the target in the depths.
Everywhere you look, there are twisted tree trunks, the thinnest being at least a meter wide, enough for hunters to crawl on, but with a Leviathan, there's no way.
The captured hunter had already been eaten 30% of the time, and the hunter ate by chewing with sharp teeth, and did not seem to secrete substances such as dissolved fluids.
So what kind of creature is it? It may have been a creature that Lynn knew, such as cockroaches, which had some small scavenging species, but the largest of them was the most powerful predator Lynn had seen in the forest so far.
You don't know until you see it.
The flyer flew quickly along the trunk of the tree, the target was where Lynn felt pain, and in the dark environment, occasionally one or two small flying insects approached, and after a few shakes, they quickly flew away without a trace.
Lynn hadn't seen any large creatures, and by this time, it was already close to where the creature was.
Well? The pain of being eaten has stopped?
Lynn sensed that the captured hunter had been half eaten, but instead of being eaten any further, she was tossed aside.
It's a waste, but if other creatures have too many fat cells, it will affect their overall mobility, and Lynn can coagulate food into a ball and store it even if she is saturated, because Lynn will kill all saprophytes that come close, so food will never rot.
However, this is an opportunity, and Lynn may be able to defeat the creature with this leftover hunter.
Lynn immediately caused the hunter's wound to begin to coagulate, preventing the flow of blood and other bacteria from entering, and at the same time, the body began to change drastically.
First of all, the structure of cells and organs begins to dissolve, so that the basic cells in the body absorb these dissolved nutrients and begin to multiply, and these basic cells begin to combine into countless new organisms.
The only thing the hunter was eaten was its abdomen, but it happened to be the largest part of the hunter's body, and there was enough space and nutrients for Lynn to completely reassemble it.
The basic cells can be transformed and combined to form a new group of creatures in a short period of time, and Lin mainly designed their shapes after a more ferocious small flying insect commonly seen in the vicinity, hence the name 'Wild Bee'.
Now, the flyers outside have also found the location of the hunter, there is a hole in a thick tree trunk with a diameter of more than one meter, the cave is very shallow, Lin only sees the hunter who has been half eaten, and there are no other creatures nearby.
Left? Judging by the size of the cave, the creature should not be large, and it is probably a cockroach.
This voice is......
The flyer heard a crawling sound nearby, and not far away, a carapace creature covered in a carapace climbed the trunk of a tree, it was more than a meter long, and its carapace glowed silver under the light of the flyer.
What, it turned out to be a beetle, but this color...... It seems that it is a species that has never been seen before, so it is called a 'silver beetle'.
The silver beetle crawled down the twisted trunk into the hollow, its tentacles waving as if searching for something, and finally it targeted the remaining remains of the hunter and began to nibble on.
It doesn't seem to be the original owner of this tree hole, but it just touched it by the smell.
Forget it, let's kill it first.
The silver beetle gnawed a small hole in the remnants of the hunter's abdomen, usually so that a large amount of blood would flow out, but it didn't eat anything, and when the beetle was waving its tentacles in confusion, countless creatures suddenly gushed out of the mouth it bittened!
Measuring only about two centimeters in size, the bees are extremely numerous, relying on their razor-sharp jaws to attack, and they can spray large amounts of acid from their abdomen like flying species of Aztecs.
The silver beetle seemed to encounter this phenomenon for the first time, and it looked a little stunned, and before it could react, the wild bees were already crawling all over its body.
The teeth of the wild bee are designed to deal with soft-armored targets, and to deal with such thick-armored targets, it is necessary to use a dissolving solution, and all arthropods have vents on their bodies that have degenerated their gills in the water.
The bee found holes in the sides of the silver beetle's belly, and just as Lin was about to let them spray acid inside, the silver beetle's belly suddenly swelled, squirting out a large amount of liquid before Lynn did.
'Bang! As the silver beetle erupted, there was an extremely loud sound, and Lynn suddenly felt the wild bees blocking the vent being hit by a stream of hot liquid, and flying out with the force of the impact.
Lin told the bees to disperse and split up to find the ones that had been sprayed, and Lin soon found their bodies around the hollow of the tree, their bodies almost melted, and their remains were covered with a layer of black liquid, which was constantly smoking.
This is...... Shelling?
Lin felt a little unbelievable, this silver beetle used a very similar attack method to the Leviathan Bombardment, compressing some kind of energy in its body and then spewing it.
And this beetle is not spraying a bomb, but a high-temperature dissolved liquid.
How did these creatures evolve to this point? It's really unimaginable, not to mention how it preserves this high-temperature liquid in its body, it is the way of shelling, Lin has never seen other creatures have it except herself, and the impact is quite powerful, much more powerful than the ordinary pressure spray method.
Lin can't let it go, she definitely has to catch it and dissect it, although Lin can combine various classes herself, she also relies on learning other creatures.
'Bang! The silver beetle then spewed a huge amount of liquid from its side and shot it at the swarm of wild bees flying in the hollow of the tree, and dozens of wild bees fell, and the hot dissolved liquid instantly destroyed their body structure, dissolving them into pieces of debris.
In the face of such a powerful firepower, the wild bee swarm did not retreat, and they surrounded it again, spraying the dissolving liquid on the silver beetle while looking for any location to bite into, and Lin tried to kill the beetle at any cost.
The armor of the silver beetle is extremely strong, it seems that because of the habit of spraying high temperature acid, it itself has a strong ability to resist acid, and the attack of the wild bee has no effect at all, under its successive shelling, there are less than a hundred of the original more than a thousand wild bees.
The remaining bees were no threat, and the silver beetles had a hard time shooting them, so it simply ignored the remaining bees and ate the remains of the downed bees around it.
What to do? If the Wild Bee doesn't work, you can only let other troops or Leviathan do it, but it's too late now.
The silver beetle eats very quickly, and after eating the debris, it crawls out of the hollow of the tree.
Lynn told the bees and the glowing flyer to follow at once, and the silver beetle had been climbing on the twisted trunk for a while before suddenly stopped, lying there motionless.
Lynn's wild bee flew around its head several times, and the silver beetle was completely unresponsive.
Are you resting? It turns out that it doesn't have a nest, so it just sleeps casually?
But...... This is just right, because the place where the silver beetle rests is directly above the Leviathan's cave.
Although the Leviathan was too heavy to climb up, it ...... As long as the beetle goes down, it's fine.
Leviathan walked out of the cavern, and Lynn reached out with her tentacles looking up, faintly discerning the glow of the flyer between the twisted trunks.
The distance is about 30 meters......
The Leviathan constructs a long, flexible filament of cells in its body, ending in barbed spikes that are just as long as the silver beetle on top.
Aim the muzzle at the target, and with the pressure of the air, the Leviathan spews out the barb!
The Leviathan couldn't spray the barbs that high, and the thin spines couldn't penetrate the armor of the silver beetle, so Lynn got some special gadgets.
The barbed was equipped with small wings, and even if it lost the momentum of the cannonball, it could still fly for a long distance, and the winged barbed flew to the silver beetle on the trunk of the tree, flew to its mouth, and poked its closed jaws.
After Lin poked it dozens of times, the silver beetle finally woke up, and it bit the barb and swallowed it without thinking.
Hooked!
After confirming that the hook stab had hooked the soft parts of the silver beetle's mouth, Leviathan immediately pulled it hard, and immediately pulled the beetle off the tree!
