Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Green Eater
Renault let out a sigh of relief, secretly glad that nothing had happened. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt is very dangerous to fire a gun in such a narrow cave, and the steel balls will continue to bounce because there are many people who are injured by ricochets.
The point was that he didn't feel strong malice from this blue-haired woman, although she was the first to strike, but the downed guards were only unconscious, and they didn't really suffer fatal injuries.
If she really wanted to kill, all she needed was a gentle stab in everyone's throat instead of trying to knock everyone unconscious.
The badge on her chest also caught Renault's attention, it was made up of two sharp daggers crossed over, and Renault did not have such a family crest in his memory.
In other words, this woman may belong to an unknown organization, and judging by the fact that the coat of arms is made up of two pitch-black daggers, the style of this organization should be more extreme and have a strong sense of purpose.
The shape of the totem is meaningful and tends to carry the characteristics of an organization.
Now his strength is still too weak to make enemies everywhere.
So he said very gentlemanly, "May I ask this beautiful lady, what is the matter with coming to my Renault's domain?"
"You're Renault?" the blue-haired woman looked a little surprised, but she quickly laughed, "I can't believe the rumors, it seems that you are not a fool to be able to defeat these demon rats." ”
Renaud was a little embarrassed, and although he didn't mind maintaining the image of the Dasha Lord right now, it was still quite unpleasant to be said this to the face of a beautiful woman.
Moreover, she has no sense of respect, which is something that is hard to imagine in this world. People's respect for nobility, like fear of Warcraft, has penetrated to the bone marrow.
Even Momiji, who is also a nobleman, will use the invitation to talk.
The blue-haired woman continued, "My name is Serena, and I am from the royal capital. ”
No wonder, Renault seems to understand something, this is the same as people in the city going to the countryside, there will always be an inexplicable sense of superiority, this is the impact of the environment on people, the people of the royal capital, think that he, the lord of the border mountain range, is nothing great.
Renault didn't know anything about her organization, but this organization existed in the royal capital, so it must not be that simple.
Serena pointed to the green worms again and said, "I'm going to take these disgusting green devourers away, I don't think you have a problem with Lord Renault, right?"
"No, I can't. Renaud said with a displeased face, "Otherwise, these worms are his trophies, why should you give them if you want?"
Serena didn't seem to expect Renault to refuse so directly, and was slightly stunned and spread her hands: "Okay then." Since you want to keep it, I can't force it, but I still kindly remind you that this thing is not for anyone to play, so don't get into trouble. Finally, I would like to advise you, let's stop here, there are some things in the depths that you can't deal with now. ”
Renault thought that there would be at least a little conflict, but he didn't expect Serena to turn around and leave directly after finishing speaking, without even a little hesitation, very neatly.
Of course, it would be best if there was no fight, and Renault asked Lauren to put away the musket, and when the unconscious people woke up one after another, he brought back all the green eaters.
It took another two days, and Renault almost exhausted his stock of black powder, blowing up all the caves.
......
Upon his return to Black Iron Town, Renault immediately ordered a large basement to be dug and connected to the cellar of the town hall by a passageway.
There are more than 50 green phagogens in total, and in order not to have an accident, Renault still made a stone stake for each insect to restore their original ecological environment as much as possible.
After a few days of observation and experimentation, Renault gradually mastered the life patterns of some green phagoads.
Green eaters are out-and-out big stomachs, as long as someone feeds them, they can eat nearly a hundred catties of iron ore non-stop, and secrete the same amount of green liquid.
They then go into a three-day hibernation, during which the outermost cortex slowly ages, mottled and sheds like dandruff, and the black rings on their bodies increase. Renault roughly counted, the most one green phage already had one hundred and twenty black rings, and the least had more than sixty.
Reynolds chose a few devours with more black rings and fed them constantly, wondering if they would evolve when the black rings rose to a certain number.
He then collects the green liquid and filters out the ore powder to get about a tenth of the liquid, which he calls "Green No. 1".
Green No. 1 has a faint sour taste, which should contain some acidic ingredients, but it is not very strong, and there will be a weak reaction after the wire is put in.
What caught his attention was that some faint mist-like black, like black jellyfish in the ocean, kept and slowly floating in Green 1.
Renault could not explain this phenomenon scientifically, and could only temporarily relegate it to the category of magic.
He decided to start in vivo experiments.
He herded dozens of chickens and six horses into the cages in the basement, and in order to slowly observe the effect, he only lightly painted them with some green No. 1.
As a result, a day later, only two roosters survived, and two of the three horses began to shed their hair. Their skin gradually turned black, dry and hard, as if they had been dehydrated by strong acids.
After a few more days of brushing, the two roosters had lost all their hair, and their bodies were pitch black and stiff, as if they had been thrown into a fire and burned, and they could no longer bend their flexible necks to peck and eat. The two horses that had lost their hair at the beginning were no longer alive, lying on the ground dying, and it seemed that they would not survive.
The last remaining horse, like the two roosters, was covered in black charcoal, and a layer of black ash could fall off when touched, and its body became so stiff that it was difficult to even open its mouth to eat.
It seems that applying liquid to the surface of the animal's body alone will not complete the transformation of them. The rats are able to turn into magic rats because they are all soaked in Green 1, which means that they will also eat it in their stomachs.
But what was created that way was a monster, and it lost its original nature, and it was almost impossible to use it.
What if you give them less food?
With the mentality of giving it a try, Renault diluted Green 1 with water and fed a rooster a few bites.
When I went back to see it the next day, the chicken and the horse, who had not drunk Green No. 1, had turned into two black sculptures, standing motionless on the ground. Their skin had turned into a hard black shell, which clicked and clicked.
The rooster who had drunk Green 1, whose eyes had turned yellow, flapped its bare wings, clucked and jumped up and down in the iron cage, pecking at the iron floor.
Its beak was about to fall off because of the exertion, but it kept pecking as if it didn't feel pain, and finally pecked itself until it was only half of its head, and then died of blood loss.
It seems that it is not possible to use food, this experiment is a complete failure, and Renault can't help but be disappointed.
"Lauren, get them out and bury them. ”
Lauren got into the iron cage with his waist over, cleaned up the mess, and finally looked at the black rooster sculpture standing on the ground and asked, "Lord Renault, you said that the skin of this thing is burned, can the meat in it be edible?"
"You can taste it. Reynolds said.
Lauren scratched his head and laughed twice, and kicked the black against the wall: "Hey, it's quite strong, it didn't break." ”
Renault was about to urge, but found that Lauren screamed as if he had been stepped on his tail, he quickly got out of the cage and closed the iron door: "Lord Renault, it's still ...... Still alive!"
Can't you, it's still alive?
Renault moved several of the candlesticks over and found that the black rooster's neck had been shattered, revealing the black feathers underneath, which were shaking incessantly there.
It's really alive!
