Chapter 115: Distant Relatives
Susumi ...... Rice...... Rice...... ...... m"
The spy's shouts echoed through the empty cavern, the depths of the Red Crystal Cave, full of rocks and crystals, but no living creatures in sight......
The scorpions that I saw at the exit of the passage before, they just smashed the spies with crystals, and did not do anything else, so Lin entered the depths of this cave very easily.
The spy held a red crystal that the scorpion used to smash, and a strange smell came from this crystal, and Lin found that there was a special ingredient in the crystal, which, if soaked into the blood or eaten, would cause the creature brain to produce a hallucinogenic effect.
This is also the reason why Susumi escaped just now, and those scorpions before were also listless there because of this, and they would use crystals to smash spies.
Lin Neng knew that Susumi was hiding behind a crystal, but it didn't react to the Spy's voice, and it seemed that the crystal had a deep effect on it.
The Spy walks towards the crystal where Susumi is hiding, and when the Spy gets close to a meter or so, Susumi suddenly rushes out from behind the crystal, screaming as it runs deeper into the cave.
The Spy swung his limbs and chased after him, pressing Susumi to the ground, while the Spy gently pierced Susumi's scales with his fingertips and began to inject a detoxifying liquid into his blood.
Although this illusion ingredient is uncommon, its effect is similar to that of some poisonous plants in the jungle, so Lynn has a way to get rid of it.
"Gah! Ga! Susumi struggled constantly, looking rather painful, the crystalline ingredients had too rapid effects on the brain. The Spy held out his other hand and pressed Susumi's head. And break it open. Then some liquid was dripped into it, and Susumi was much quieter......
There are so many illusionary crystals here, but there are not many scorpions affected, Lin thinks that when they dug up here, they found that many scorpions were hallucinated, and then they gave up on continuing to develop here, leaving only those illusionary scorpions waiting to die...... It is unknown when it was excavated, but it must have been a newly excavated place in the absence of any corpses. In other words, there is no way to confirm whether there is an exit here.
…… What is this?
Suddenly, Lin noticed a red thing appear in Susumi's pupils, this ...... It's not that Susumi has something in her eyes, it's ...... Above the top of the cave!
The Spy looked up and saw a huge rib lying on the roof of the cave, which was completely red, and suddenly the huge rib leaped and fell from the top of the cave!
The Spy immediately grabbed Susumi and fled, and after a loud bang, a behemoth landed in the Spy's original position.
This is...... Rib centipede? That's too big, isn't it?
The creature was identical to the ribbed centipede, but quite large. Its outstretched rib-like limbs are about six meters wide, and its entire body is covered in a red carapace. The massive ribbed centipede was staring at the side, as if it was going to pounce at any moment.
The spy didn't act, but quietly waited for the opportunity, the ribbed centipede didn't expect it to grow that big, but it could be something else, they should have nothing to do with the subspecial group, they are a wild creature, and Lin felt that the ribbed centipede might have some 'kinship' with the wyvern.
The ribbed centipede and the wyvern are currently the only vertebrates with three pairs of limbs that Lin has seen, and the first pair of limbs of the wyvern are like pterosaurs that elongate the knuckles, and then cover the wing membrane in the knuckles to become wings, and the rib centipede also elongates the knuckles of the first pair of limbs, turning them into limbs that can be used to move, which can also make it camouflage more like ribs......
And this creature grows bones to the outside like a turtle, but it is very flexible, which is also because their bodies are like dragons with a lot of empty sacs that store light gases, plus they are both capable of breathing fire, these two seemingly completely different species really have a certain relationship.
So wouldn't it be very strange if the ribbed centipede could grow that big...... And there is also such a large dinosaur skeleton for it to camouflage, but how can it be red? I don't know if it has anything to do with the crystallization of this.
"Whew!" The huge ribbed centipede suddenly stood up halfway, and Lynn felt a scent coming out of its first and second pair of 'ribs'.
The spy immediately grabbed Susumi and turned around and ran, and when the spy ran for about two seconds, a strong heat wave suddenly came from behind him, and when he turned his head to look, he saw that a large area of air behind him was burning, but it only lasted for a moment before disappearing.
This centipede's fire-using technique feels stronger than that of the Wyvern, and it is a bit like the firestorm of the Inca swarm, although the coverage is not very large.
However, if it is too large to burn out the oxygen, it is quite dangerous in the cave.
The ribbed centipede seemed to understand this, so instead of breathing fire, it rushed straight at the spy!
The Spy immediately fled deeper into the cave, and the ribbed centipede followed closely, its massive size smashed through all obstacles such as crystals and rocks in its path, and it ran with its thick rib-like limbs, allowing it to outpace the Spy, and seeing that the centipede was getting closer, the Spy lifted Susumi and threw it out.
Susumi had been asleep since the hallucination effect had been unlocked, and this time it was thrown onto a piece of crystal, and woke up, and the moment she opened her eyes, she saw the Spy being caught by a centipede.
"Gah!!" Susumi screamed in horror, and the centipede held down the spy with its limbs, pulling its limbs off one by one with its mouth......
The spy seems to have difficulty escaping, but ......
'Bang! With a loud sound, the Spy's head suddenly detached from his body and flew out at high speed, flying dozens of meters away before crashing into a piece of crystal and stopping.
The centipede ignored the flying head, still eating the Spy's body.
Fortunately, the standing scorpion has a structure like a head, not a head and body like other scorpions, so Lin made this ability to launch the head by the way, and the crystal is also inside the head.
At the same time, the Spy also wrapped some miniature units in his body to see if he could survive in the centipede's body, so that he could detect the structure of this large red centipede.
"Susumi!" At this time, there was a small sound from his head, and Susumi was stunned when she heard it, and then immediately ran in the direction of her head.
Now, Tou and Susumi will continue to move forward, this red crystalline cave seems to be quite large, and I don't know where it leads...... (To be continued......)
