Chapter 190: Nightmare
After the exploration team of the skeleton dragon set off, the emerald dragon was still engaged in the war against the scorpion.
After Black Pepper killed the brain-creature monster in the pyramid, Lin also found some underground passages there, connecting to deeper underground rooms, where the remaining standing scorpions were hidden, some of them were alive and some of them were dead, most of them were suffocated, and the living ones were quite weak.
Eventually, Black Pepper killed them all, and captured some of the weakened scorpions alive, possibly intended to be used as slaves.
Lin thinks that the scorpions are unlikely to be used as slaves, they will not be obedient after being beaten a few times like the white dragon, as far as the white dragon is concerned, Lin has not found any information about the appearance of the brain monster in the pyramid, so for the time being, I can only use the previous speculation, the brain monster accidentally ran in without the scorpion.
The Emerald Dragons intend to occupy the pyramid as one of their strongholds, and Lynn discovers that Susumi has brought not only troops with them, but also many Emerald Dragons who are skilled in construction, and they are learning how to build this pyramid.
The pyramid looks spectacular, but in fact it is too inefficient to use space and is not as good as other shapes.
Susumi's troops were scattered, and the Wurm Knights who had come to save the temporary forces here were only a part, and Susumi himself had taken more troops to attack the other pyramids.
The pyramids of the scorpions are oddly distributed, some are lined up in several rows, some are standing alone in the jungle, and Lin doesn't know why they are doing such a strange way of building, but it also makes it easy for the Emerald Dragons to surprise them.
Lynn's spy is now on her way to join Susumi's forces with Black Pepper's forces. Susumi is said to have brought his large newly-made weapon. Lynn wanted to see how it was made.
"Ahem!" "What's wrong? Commander! ”
In front of the troops there was a sudden commotion. Lin stepped forward to take a look, as if it was because of the black pepper, only to see that it had now hit its head against the tree.
Black Pepper didn't ride a wurm, but also followed the troops on the ground, most of the wurms were taken by some jade dragons to join Susumi's troops first, and Black Pepper still acted on the ground as the commander of this unit.
"It's okay......" Black Pepper touched his head, and continued to walk forward.
Lin felt that the black pepper seemed to be a little strange, of course, it was normal to have a table before. But since ...... By the way, it became abnormal after being bitten by a brain-creating monster.
Lin remembered that the brain-making monster was not poisonous, but the black pepper was indeed affected by something, and maybe she had to check it.
Thinking about it, Lynn squeezed into the group, slowly approached Black Pepper, and then poked it when it wasn't looking.
"Gah!" The moment Black Pepper was poked, it suddenly screamed, and it turned to look at the spy and said, "What are you touching me for?" ”
It's very strange, the strength of Lin poked it felt like the skin of the ordinary jade dragon couldn't be felt, and the black pepper seemed to have become much more sensitive for some reason.
"Nothing." Lynn replied simply. At this time, Black Pepper also found that the surrounding jade dragons were looking at this side, after all, it was a common thing to be touched. It seems strange to be so panicked.
Black Pepper also noticed that he was overreacting, and he immediately turned around and began to walk.
At this time, Rin's miniature unit had entered its body through the veins of Guò Black Pepper, and it was time to study the location of its wound before looking elsewhere.
Thousands of seconds passed, and it was discovered after Lynn had probed many parts...... A qiē is normal.
There is no poison in the blood of the black pepper, and the wound bitten by the brain-building monster is basically healed without any problems, and it looks very ordinary, but ......
"Gah!" At this moment, the black pepper bumped again, as if it didn't see a tree in front of it.
The surrounding jade dragons all looked at it with strange expressions, and Black Pepper seemed to realize that there was something wrong with him, and saw that the sky had also become dark, so Black Pepper ordered the surrounding teams to stop and rest,
Lin also tested the eyes of the black pepper, and there was no problem there, so that means ...... It may be that Black Pepper's brain is affected, but the part of the brain is not easy to detect, and Lin wants to observe more.
The Emerald Dragons had set up some simple houses here to rest for the night, and Black Pepper seemed to be tired, and after giving some orders for the vigil, it began to fall asleep.
Lin had been paying attention to it, and as the night slowly darkened, Black Pepper showed some obvious pained expression, and it tossed and turned, and Lin knew that it was having some nightmares.
Nightmares are a common phenomenon that are usually produced by creatures with high mental stress, but the black pepper is obviously due to some other reason......
"Gah!" Suddenly, Black Pepper screamed and bounced, and it also woke up the sleeping Jade Dragons around him, and the Jade Dragons immediately picked up their weapons and looked around, and when they found that nothing had happened, they all looked at Black Pepper strangely.
I saw that Black Pepper's eyes were full of fear and looked around, and when it looked at the jade dragons around it, its thoughts slowly became stable, and then it fell asleep again without saying anything......
Lin found that this strange behavior of Black Pepper was just the beginning.
Later, on the way forward, Black Pepper became a little more energetic and didn't hit the tree so easily, but almost every time she slept, Lin found that she would have nightmares, and always woke up, scaring the surrounding jade dragons.
If Lin could be a bigger brain reader or something, she might be able to find out that Black Pepper was dreaming of something, but now the spy is not easy to control.
Sometimes Black Pepper will also say some strange words while sleeping, although most of them are vague words, but there is one word that is clear, and that is "East".
…… Is there something or something in the East?
Lin found that the circulatory system of the black pepper was a little abnormal, but in general there was no problem, apparently under the influence of the brain-making monster.
Lin remembered that the White Skeleton Dragon was affected by the split brain and began to build strange buildings, and did the Emerald Dragon have to be bitten to be affected? It's an interesting phenomenon...... But it also proves that the Brain Monster is a very dangerous thing.
After three days and nights, walking through the complex jungle, the troops finally converged with Susumi's troops, except for the lingering nightmare, the black pepper has become more and more normal, however, it is not clear if the black pepper is starting to improve, Lin thinks that maybe observing the black pepper will reveal more secrets about the brain-making monster...... (To be continued......)
