Chapter Ninety-Nine: The White Silk Thread
In the surveillance video, the triumphant guinea pig is lying on its stomach on the carcass of a strange insect and feasting on it.
People's attention is focused on the strange insect, and after finding that the strange insect's strength is unbearable, they have shifted their attention elsewhere.
Only Xu Yunshu was still looking at the laboratory.
When it comes to vital interests, it is impossible to be too cautious.
So he was the first to see the eerie scene.
The mouse had eaten more than twice its body size, but it hadn't stopped eating, as if its stomach pouch could expand indefinitely.
However, this is not the point, as long as it is related to the Dream Forest, there will be a lot of weird places, not bad for this one.
What really caught Xu Yunshu's attention was the speed at which the mice ate.
"Professor Xue, can you rewind the video just now?" Xu Yunshu asked.
Professor Xue was instructing to arrange the next experimental plan, and after hearing Xu Yunshu's inquiry, he was slightly stunned, and then nodded, "Of course you can, do you see anything?" ”
"Perhaps...... I need confirmation. ”
Without turning on the strengthening of the brain, Xu Yunshu could not remember all the details one by one.
He had to watch the video again to determine what he had in mind.
Xu Yunshu is the strongest among the dream possessors, Professor Xue attaches great importance to his opinion, and he instructed his assistant to upload the video of the mouse and the monster insect after the fight to the big screen at the scene.
Because of Professor Xue's actions, everyone who was about to leave stopped one after another and looked at the screen with a look of surprise.
The experiment has ended, the strange insects are dead, and the contact experiment that Xu Yunshu originally wanted to do is even more impossible, now looking at the boring process after this fight, what is the point?
However, out of trust in Professor Xue, there was no opposition at the scene.
For a while, everyone was repeatedly observing the feeding process of the mice.
To be honest, it's not a great viewing experience.
In particular, when the mouse feeds on a strange-looking, unclassifiable alien bug, the strange dream creature is beyond their imagination, even though those present are no strangers to the flesh and blood of animals.
The internal structure of the strange insect is chaotic and complex, and the team led by Professor Xue has used a robotic arm to remotely manipulate the dissection and carefully analyze the functions of its organs and tissues.
Unfortunately, the results were not promising.
The structure of the body structure of this strange insect is the same as its appearance, and it is simply like it grows randomly, except for some necessary tissues and organs, the remaining flesh and protein are all randomly wound and assembled together with an inexplicable white organic thread.
If such a thing appeared in the real world, the biologists present would probably go crazy at the first time.
Because that's simply not possible.
The structure of the organism itself should be rigorous and able to isolate the internal and external environment.
Even if there is redundant organization, it should not affect the basic life activities.
According to the accounts of the possessed people who entered the Dream Forest, most of the creatures in this strange forest obeyed the general rules of life.
However, this strange thing has subverted all perceptions of life.
They don't know how these messes can fit together and become a unified whole life.
Therefore, when the mice gnawed at the monster insect, most people's eyes were focused on the body structure of the monster insect.
This thing is really a once-in-a-glance and shock-in-a-lifetime.
When Xu Yunshu first looked at the monitor, his eyes were also attracted by strange insects, but thanks to the blessings brought to him by the fourth-level predator, he could notice more details.
Take, for example, the change in mice.
He didn't realize this at first, but as the frequency of the guinea pig's eating increased, Xu Yunshu immediately reacted and pointed at the screen with his index finger, asking Professor Xue to pay attention to his discovery.
"Professor Xue, look here, isn't it a little weird?"
Professor Xue narrowed his eyes and carefully observed the direction Xu Yunshu was pointing.
On the big screen, the guinea pig, which was originally only a dozen centimeters, was magnified many times, and the ultra-clear camera made its whole body visible.
Xu Yunshu pointed to the mouth where it ingested food.
The mice are doing the standard rat-eating motion, and there doesn't seem anything suspicious.
But as the video continued to play, Professor Xue's face gradually became solemn.
"Slow down and play at a quarter speed."
From the instructions of the laboratory leader, the assistant naturally reacted quickly.
The video was immediately slowed down, and everyone was able to see the strangeness pointed out by Xu Yunshu.
The white organic threads that connected the Tight Bundle Worms hadn't been chewed up.
After they enter the mouth of the mouse, it seems as if they are alive, each one is slightly twisting and moving, the amplitude of this activity is extremely weak, because the mouse chews too fast, it is easy to ignore this small movement.
But when attention is focused on the white thread, no one can ignore the strange shaking.
These white organic threads are like having an autonomous life, drilling into the body of the mouse little by little!
As the silk threads continue to pour into the mouth, the frequency of feeding of the mouse accelerates, and its body gradually grows larger and stronger, and these subtle changes are magnified under the camera to be observed.
"This ...... This is! "Professor Xue has studied all his life, and it is the first time he has seen such a strange scene.
Xu Yunshu's mind had been tempered by the Dream Forest, and he already had immunity to strange things, he frowned and thought for a moment, and said to Professor Xue: "Professor Xue, can you cut the picture back to the laboratory?" ”
Professor Xue immediately understood what Xu Yunshu meant.
While they were looking at the footage, a short time had passed in the lab.
During this time, the video equipment was working, but they did not continue to observe.
I don't know what the situation will be now.
Professor Xue immediately instructed his assistant to switch the viewing angle on the screen to the real-time picture.
As soon as it switched over, there was an uproar at the scene.
Everyone looked at the screen in shock, as if they saw something incredible inside.
Xu Yunshu is certainly no exception.
In the lab, the strange-looking bug had been devoured.
But that's not the point.
For a small thing that is only a dozen centimeters long, it can eat a monster with a body length of more than forty centimeters, and the people present are already mentally prepared, and it is not strange to see it.
What really shocked them was the state of the guinea pigs.
This little guinea pig...... It can't be called that anymore.
Its body swelled twice as much, its red eyes glowed with strange arcs, its muscles exaggerated and twisted, and unknown filamentous objects slowly squirmed at the junction of skin and muscle.
Xu Yunshu knew that these things were white silk threads that could move slightly, as seen in the video just now.
What exactly are they?
Why did the guinea pig become this strange appearance after devouring the strange worm?
Everybody is thinking, everybody is giving different answers, but now is clearly not the time to talk about that.
The cowering mouse suddenly hissed, as if it had received a signal, and slammed into the glass wall in a rage.
Whoop -
