Chapter 594: Food
readx;
But what Dio didn't expect was that the vitality of this monster beast called Meteor by Laura was extremely tenacious, half of its body was blown up, and the remaining half of its fleshy body could still move, first twisted in pain, and then with a fierce flick, it continued to pounce on Dio.

Dio looked at the squirming muscle tissue at the monster's wound, and the blood splashed in midair, and felt indescribably disgusting, Dio would rather face dozens or hundreds of enemies than fight such a monster.
Seeing that the monster pounced on the front, Dio flew backwards, and at the same time released the Sky Breaking Slash, the huge green mang cut straight into the monster's body, splitting the monster into two pieces from beginning to end, and a thick black and red liquid gushed out like a fountain, flowing on the ground, and the broken organs could be faintly seen.
This time the monster finally stopped moving, only the musculature at the incision was still twitching slightly, Dio walked over and took a closer look, the monster's body was covered with a layer of thick and stiff short hairs, or tentacles, which seemed to rely on these things to move quickly in the dirt.
"What do you call this thing?" Dio turned to look at Laura.
Laura squatted down, not at all dirty, looking at the thick and stiff short hair on the surface of the monster's body with her hands, and nodded after a while: "That's right, it's Fall." ā
Laura was talking in her mouth, but her subordinates kept talking, and they turned the monster's body over and began to pull the organs in it, Dio frowned: "You don't have to look so carefully, right?"
Laura stubbornly shook her head, still continuing the movements in her hands, and soon the slender hands were stained with fishy blood, but Laura was unaware, her face was indifferent, and some of the samurai around her couldn't help but run to the side and vomit, these samurai were the elite of the legion, not that they had never seen the bloody lord, but the scene in front of them was too shocking, especially Laura's delicate and gorgeous face and the bloody and shapeless corpse together, which brought them a strong visual impact.
To be honest, Dio was also a little uncomfortable, but how could he put on a show in front of so many samurai, so he had to stare at Laura and keep rummaging through there.
After a long while, Laura finally stopped what she was doing and stood up, and the warriors around her, including Theo, were all relieved, fortunately dinner had already been eaten, otherwise after witnessing this scene, I am afraid that no one would have the appetite to eat.
"What did you find?" Dio noticed that Laura's expression seemed a little worried.
"This is just a token, but the parent must not be far from here. Laura's two eyebrows tangled together: "If you don't kill the mother, there will only be more and more such derivatives." ā
At this time, the samurai, who was already organic, brought clean water and asked Laura to wash her hands, and Laura washed it several times before she could clean up the blood.
"What?" Dior was taken aback, "And the mother?"
Laura nodded, and explained in detail for Dio, it turns out that the reason why this monster beast called Meteor is terrifying is because it can continuously produce small derivatives, and the mother's ability to move is extremely slow, all of which rely on derivatives to forage for the mother, in the Nagara Sea north of the glacier, Meteor can undoubtedly be called a hegemon-level monster, once the number of derivatives reaches a certain number, it can even control an entire sea area.
"But I've never heard of meteorites moving on land. Laura was puzzled: "Something must have gone wrong." ā
Dio thought for a moment, "Has anyone in your tribe tamed this kind of monster?"
"Impossible. Laura immediately shook her head: "The mother body of the meteorite moves too slowly, it is useless to tame, and these derivatives can't do anything but forage, so they can't control it at all." ā
"Uncontrollable?" Dior frowned and pondered, the token had even killed a lot of the villagers in the village, and Dio made a little noise and immediately attracted the token, it really didn't look like it was very intelligent.
But Dio couldn't figure it out, it was impossible for the monster beasts that lived far north of the glacier to appear here for no reason, Dio didn't need to bother to guess and knew that someone must have deliberately moved this kind of thing here, the question was why did the other party do this?
Uncontrollable means uncertain, and really putting this kind of thing on the battlefield can only be a lose-lose outcome, so Dio doesn't think it's like the handiwork of Jun Tuming, of course, if these derivatives can be controlled, it's a different story.
Since he couldn't think of a reason, Dio put the question aside: "Can you find the mother?"
"Give it a try. Laura was a little unsure: "As long as it's close enough, I can lock onto the mother, but if it's too far, I can't do it." ā
"What about tracking tokens? You're not saying that these tokens are tools used to forage for the mother, so they have to go back to the mother, right?"
"It's okay, but only if the derivatives get enough food. ā
Listening to Laura's answer, Dio had a headache, if the derivative only caught some cattle and sheep and other domestic animals, he could stand by and watch, but this guy is obviously cold, he can't watch the living being eaten, right?
"By the way, how are you sure it's not the Matrix?" Dio remembered the scene of Laura rummaging through the bloody pile of flesh, and quickly drove the image out of his mind.
"I heard my grandfather mention this kind of monster, the shape of the mother and the derivative are exactly the same, but the size is different, the biggest difference is that the mother has a heart and a brain, while the derivative does not, specifically, the derivative is like a digestive organ of the mother, which can decompose the prey into the nutrients that the mother needs. ā
"In other words, the derivative needs to digest the food once before sending it back to the mother?" Dio suddenly realized, and then suddenly remembered something: "Are those people the derivative haven't had time to digest it yet?"
"Those people can't survive. Laura shook her head: "Derivatives inject venom into their prey, and that venom can't even be resisted by walruses. ā
The fire in the small village was still not extinguished, and the surviving villagers cowered in the corners and shivered, no one jumped out to resist, and the appearance of the derivatives had neutralized their fear of the invaders like Theo, at least these people were human like them, and they didn't look so hideous and terrifying.
Dio thought about it for a while, and did not rush to find the mother body who did not know where it was hidden, but took people back to the camp of the coalition army first, Dio suspected that there was probably more than one such thing, otherwise how could it be so coincidental, but let himself run into it.
"And this kind of thing?!" Hearing Dio's description, even Darth Wood, a divine warrior, felt a little incredible, there are not no tenacious demon beasts in nature, but it is very rare to be able to attack after being blown up half of his body, especially if this is only a derivative, so how strong should the mother body be?
"Let's get the people back first. Shi Luos thought for a while, and then made a decision, although it is impossible to determine the number of this perverted demon beast now, but it is obviously not something that ordinary samurai can deal with, the samurai under his command can die on the battlefield, but they must not become the food of demon beasts for no reason, which is undoubtedly a shame for the samurai.
"It's to be cautious, I suspect it's Jun Tuming's work. Mo Lin thought long-term: "We old guys should also move, let's take a look separately, at least to ensure that this kind of thing does not appear on the road to Yanjing." ā
"It's unlikely, right? This kind of derivative has no distinction between friend and foe, and even the villagers can kill it. Dio was skeptical.
Mo Lin smiled: "It seems that you don't know much about the Eternal Frozen Glacier, and the slightly lower strength of the Saint-level powerhouse may not dare to go too deep when it arrives there, not to mention the Nagara Sea at the end of the glacier, you have also seen the power of that derivative, do you think it is possible for ordinary people to transport the living mother body here?"
Dio thought about it, indeed, one or two people are afraid that it is difficult to do, and the saint-level powerhouse can't do it, the volume of the mother body is at least several times larger than the derivative, even if it is a wind-type saint-level powerhouse, it is impossible to carry such a big guy to fly, it is okay to drag it away, the question is when will it take to get out of the permafrost glacier?
Mo Lin's meaning is obvious, at least a few saint-level powerhouses, and even the participation of divine warriors, can be used to carry the mother body back, and in the Moon Shadow Empire, only Jun Tuming can mobilize such a huge lineup.
Darswood nodded in agreement with Merlin: "We have always wondered why Jun Diming started the war at this time, and now it seems that if the strength of the parent body can also reach several times that of the derivative, then it is easy to explain, as long as the number of such things is large enough, ordinary warriors have no room for resistance at all." ā
"Why doesn't Jun Tuming wait until this kind of thing has multiplied to a certain number before starting a war?" someone questioned.
"Probably because of the food. Laura, who was standing beside Theo, suddenly whispered.
"What?" some people didn't hear clearly.
So Dio repeated it for Laura.
"Tell me, why do you think that?" said Morin, looking at Laura with encouraging eyes.
Dio also patted Laura lightly beside her, signaling that she didn't have to worry.
Although Laura has no language barrier after the catboy has completed the second evolution, it is the first time to speak in front of so many people, and she is inevitably a little nervous, and after a while, she has the courage to speak: "The amount of food of the mother is increased according to the number of derivatives, the more derivatives, the more food the mother will ingest, it may be nothing in the sea, but there are not so many things on land for them to eat." ā
Everyone looked at each other, and it was a little difficult to face this result, could it be that the real reason why Jun Duming started the war at this time was to make food for this demon beast?!
