Chapter 187: Alien in the Tower

Now, it was the middle of the day, and there was a large group of jade dragons lying on the ground who were resting after eating the standing scorpion, and many of them should have not eaten for a long time, so most of them had eaten and had to rest.

The regular troops are different from them, each regular soldier is constantly paying attention to the situation around them, although they also eat, but they don't eat much, and there are many wurms hovering in the sky, and now there should be no more surrounds after sleeping......

Black Pepper was now riding on the wurm in full spirit, and it was paying attention to the direction of the jungle, when suddenly, an emerald dragon came out of the jungle, and it walked up to Black Pepper and said, "Commander, the investigation report has come out......"

Black Pepper said: "Very good, tell me what is the reason for that?" ”

Lynn's spies also ran behind the wurms that Black Pepper was riding to listen to them, and they were investigating how most of the Emerald Dragons in the jungle had been killed in a short period of time.

At that time, there should be thousands of jade dragons in the jungle, and it is impossible to be killed all at once, even if they are raided, most of them should be able to escape back.

"They're mostly eating this." The investigating jade dragon took out a red fruit, put it on the ground and said, "It may be that the group of standing scorpions put these fruits in the surrounding jungle, and they picked them up and ate them before going to bed." ”

"Is that the reason?" Black Pepper said: "I really should have allocated a little more food to them at the beginning, forget it, bury all the corpses, and then go and report to the king!" ”

"Yes!" The emerald dragon left immediately.

Lin knew that the fruit was a poisonous thing, and eating it would lead to drowsiness. Even if you are killed, it will be difficult to wake up. The emerald dragons of the regular army often come out to hunt. Do you know this kind of fruit, but the jade dragons of the temporary army don't know it, and the food they brought when they came out was almost finished, so they felt hungry before picking it up to eat?

But...... How do you feed them? It was definitely not placed there beforehand, because I didn't see it when I came.

It is supposed that before they go to bed, the standing scorpion somehow throws the fruit into the group of emerald dragons and asks them to pick it up and eat......

Anyway, it's that they're too hungry to be the main reason, so let's leave that alone. Lynn was now going to see what was going on inside the pyramid.

Black Pepper let a group of jade dragons guard the entrance to the pyramid, but still didn't let anyone in to investigate, so Lin could just go in and have a look......

"Hey, what do you want to do?" As Lin approached the entrance to the pyramid, the emerald dragon guarding the gate immediately pointed his spear at the spy and said, "It's dangerous here!" Get back to your party! ”

Lin said directly: "The commander asked me to go in and have a look." ”

"Really?" Although the jade dragon looked suspicious, he still got out of the way and said, "Then hurry up and go in." ”

Lynn walked into the pyramid, where at first it was a long narrow passageway, and the smell of smoke filled the air, even after all this time, the smoke had not yet cleared.

After walking for a while. Lin saw a lot of jade dragon corpses on the ground, and Lin checked it. They're almost all suffocated to death.

It's a normal way to die, but why didn't you see the body of the scorpion......

Lin continued to dig deeper inside, and soon came to an open space, the place was empty, and the ground was littered with the corpses of the Emerald Dragon......

It seems that they were all the Emerald Dragons who had squeezed in at the beginning, and they were all dead here, so it seems that it was a wrong decision to let them in in the first place...... No, no, these emerald dragons are not suffocated.

Lin found that many of the jade dragons had long scars on their bodies, as if they had been cut by something, and some even had their abdomen cut open, and their internal organs were all over the ground......

The weapons used by the scorpions are all spears, they shouldn't be able to do this kind of wound, and where are the makers of the damage and the group of standing scorpions?

There's something suspicious there...... Lin saw that in the center of this empty room, there was a large pile of jade dragon corpses piled together, Lin walked over and turned the pile of corpses over, and under the pile of corpses that had begun to stink, Lin saw that there was a purple thing.

What is it?

"Phew!" Suddenly, the purple thing moved, and it jumped up from the ground and stood in front of Lynn.

This is...... Standing scorpion?

Lynn's creature was the same size as the scorpion, but it was a little different, its legs were longer, and its forelimbs were not pincers like the scorpion, but two scythe-like cutting limbs with serrated teeth.

Among the scorpions...... Is there such a variety? Could it be ...... Lynn suddenly thought of a possibility.

The strange scythe scorpion glared at Lynn's spy, and just as it was about to move, Lin suddenly said to it in the language of the scorpion, "What are you?" ”

"Huh?" The Scythe Scorpion was stunned for a moment, and then it also spoke: "You, understand us, language?" ”

It didn't seem to speak well, it felt like its vocal sac had been damaged, and Lin continued, "You, aren't you a scorpion?" ”

"I am, what? You, don't need to know, you, your race, will perish, you will regret, attack, us! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the scythe scorpion suddenly rushed up, and the two sickle-like forelimbs slashed at Lynn's spy at the same time, but before he could be slashed, Lin jumped backwards and dodged the scorpion's slashing attack.

"Phew!" The Scythe Scorpion then rushed at him again, swinging the scythe and slashing at the Spy's abdomen or neck, but the Spy kept dodging it with a more agile body, and after a few seconds, Lin felt the Scythe Scorpion's movements slow down a little, and the Spy kicked it in the abdomen, kicking it out of the distance.

The scorpion stuck its forelimbs into the ground and stopped its backward body, but this time it didn't attack, but stared at the Spy.

It was probably the first time it had encountered such a flexible 'Emerald Dragon', and it was the first time Lin had seen this kind of standing scorpion here.

This scorpion is very peculiar, in fact, Lin did not carefully observe the life of the scorpion in each pyramid, only kept observing the place where Lin took them out to settle at the beginning, of course, there was no such scorpion over there......

Lin thinks that the changes in this scorpion are related to the fact that they are the remnants of the Yate race, and that the scorpion itself has some ability to change, such as like this scorpion, the forelimbs are lengthened, the stalwart joints are bladed, and the shape of a sickle grows, like a division of labor species, with different bodies to deal with different situations.

It is unclear under what circumstances this change will occur, and it is not possible that some scorpions will be able to change their form in other forms......

But the interesting thing is that this standing scorpion is obviously still like a personality creature, they have not formed a collective consciousness, nor are they commanded by a certain highly intelligent brain, they still maintain a personality form that communicates with each other, and has become a kind of creature that seems to have a division of labor and a non-division of labor.

This is a very strange form, and only the standing scorpion can be produced, Lin also wondered, what if the general division of labor species lived like individual creatures? That will definitely lead those fighters with stronger combat power to look down on those weaker workers, and then the workers feel dissatisfied and start not working, and the fighters have nothing to eat, and then they will be exterminated together......

It's kind of fun to have this situation, maybe it's possible for the scorpion to be achieved, if they can change into a very different form, this scythe scorpion is not too different at the moment.

"Shh......h

Lynn was looking around to see if there were any other places where the scorpions were hiding, and there were indeed no corpses of the scorpions, and those scorpions should have dug holes and hid somewhere else......

But where is that cave? Moreover, Lin felt that there should be a place to store water, because the life of the scorpion is inseparable from water, and they must keep their respiratory system moist.

"Phew!" The Scythe Scorpion suddenly rushed over again, and the two scythes swept towards the Spy's body, and at great speed, the Spy's body was instantly sliced through the middle.

The Scorpion seemed to be slightly stunned, it didn't expect to succeed so easily this time, but the spy's cut section did not leak internal organs, in fact, there was not even a drop of blood, and at the same time, the spy quickly opened his hand and hugged the head of the Scorpion.

"Whew!" The moment he hugged the Scorpion, the Spy blew a large amount of powder into its face, which mixed into the Scorpion's respiratory organs, and the Scythe Scorpion shook off the Spy, and it stood in place and began to shake its head continuously.

That powder has a hypnotic effect, and it was actually Lynn who ate one of those red fruits before, broke down the fruit into powder in her body and then spit it out.

This thing also had an effect on the Scorpion, which used its scythe to support its body to avoid falling, but it became more and more weak, and eventually it could not resist the feeling of drowsiness and fell to the ground.

At this moment, the Spy's lower body slowly moved and crawled over, and the section was connected to the upper body, reforming into a complete Spy.

In fact, the original design of the spy is like this, there are no internal organs in the abdomen, there are no bones, it is a bunch of very tough muscles, if it is cut, it can quickly stop the bleeding, and it will not cause any damage to itself, but the spy cannot be cut to the place where the internal organs are placed.

Lin walked to the scythe scorpion lying on the ground, and performed some simple tests on it, this creature except for a pair of scythes, the other structure is the same as the ordinary scorpion, it should be under some circumstances, the guide zhì this scorpion grew a pair of scythes, and at the same time it also killed all the jade dragons here.

Lynn thought it might not have been the only one who could have done it...... So where are the other standing scorpions hiding?

'Boom'.

Suddenly, Lynn heard a voice...... (To be continued......)
