Chapter 112: The Mad Queen, Some Kind of Truth
Xu Yunshu felt his hairs stand on end.
This is not an adjective, his white wolf body really feels threatened, so the hair on the back of his neck stands in horror.
If you look at the general law that the higher the predator's biological level, the larger the body size, this terrifying and suffocating queen ant is not comparable to the terrifying colorful giant bird?
But in the next second, Xu Yunshu realized that the truth was not so.
This queen ant is very large, but the sense of oppression given to him is not as strong as that of the colorful giant bird.
Compared to a true high-level predator, its strength seems to be only superficial.
But it is an undeniable fact that Xu Yunshu asked himself that he could not defeat it through hard power.
Guo Xiaojie's body as a queen ant has undergone a terrifying mutation!
The mutated queen seems to be eager to kill, eager to devour, just like the guinea pig in the laboratory.
The body that had swelled to thousands of times in size was a little overwhelmed, and the chitinous shell of the queen ant was almost transparent, and Xu Yunshu could see the internal structure of its body clearly with just one glance.
When he saw the organs in the body of this queen ant, Xu Yunshu had a familiar feeling.
He remembered the strange insect that had hatched.
The same messy internal organization, the same chaotic flesh and blood, these things that should not be mixed together are bound by slender silk threads, as if they were packed into a suitcase by a careless person, stuffed into the body of the queen ant.
Outside the nest, the ants that were killing each other suddenly stopped fighting, and they seemed to be inspired by the flesh and blood of their kind, and at a rapid speed, they swarmed towards the huge queen ant and climbed onto the queen's body.
Xu Yunshu had already made a decision and ran backwards.
Judging the situation is the only option for smart people.
As he fled into the distance, he looked back and saw an impressive picture.
Ants the size of his claws climbed onto the queen's body and began to frantically cast acid to corrode the queen's shell, digging its every weak point with its sharp tail spines, and gnawing every inch of its body with its powerful chewing mouthparts.
They don't want to help the queen, but they want to eat the queen and strengthen themselves.
Devouring energy to strengthen one's body, although this is the rule of the Dream Forest, the scene in front of him made Xu Yunshu's heart tremble.
Seeking advantage and avoiding harm is also the biological law of the Dream Forest, and these creatures possessed by white silk threads obviously no longer have such wild instincts.
The only thing they seem to have left is to kill and devour.
The moment he retracted his gaze, Xu Yunshu saw the strange silk thread again.
The queen's shell is acid-eroded, cone stabbed, gnawed, and broken, but it is still the victor.
Countless white threads poked out of those destroyed holes, and at the same time, the silk threads in the bodies of these ants that gnawed at the queen ant were also suddenly active, and the two sides were entangled and fused together, turning into a complete and longer white thread.
These intact silk threads suddenly exert force, pulling the crazy ants into the queen's body.
Now, they're one.
The queen's body gains energy, the broken parts begin to heal slowly, and the ants that were forced to burrow into the queen's body are gradually melting away, eventually turning into a strange mass of tissue that has been living in her body ever since.
Some of the questions that existed in Xu Yunshu's heart were suddenly answered.
Why is the body of the dream monster so strange and illogical?
Why do they have at least two or more unlimited genetic material in their bodies?
Why is the body of the monster worm so weak, but the creature that devours the monster worm becomes strong and warlike?
At this moment, all questions had vague but reasonable answers.
Those extra, incomprehensible body tissues are not at all what the biological body should grow! They come from individuals who have been devoured and fused!
And then...... The body of this thing, the strange white silk thread will invade the body of the creature, enlighten the potential of the creature, strengthen their power, and continue to devour and be devoured.
In the process, these monsters will continue to harvest energy until they reach a certain accumulation apex, and reproduction is officially completed.
They may scatter and tear apart, carrying the flesh and blood of countless other creatures, turning into larvae, or simply turning into pupae and lurking quietly underground, waiting for a new cycle of reproduction.
……
This is Xu Yunshu's speculation in his mind about the reproduction method of this strange insect, and this speculation seems to be infinitely close to the truth, but there are still a few unpredictable points.
Why does this strange insect give creatures great power?
Why do they make creatures lose their wild instincts and go crazy?
Could it be the power of potential, or the power of living beings?
Guo Xiaojie's ant queen body is abnormal, so where is her consciousness now?
Did it also happen?
Xu Yunshu could only think about it to this point.
Reality no longer allowed him to continue thinking, he had to focus on one thing.
Escape from the queen ant.
The flesh and blood energy that a level 4 predator comes with is enough to attract all the attention of the queen ant.
The behemoth vibrated its wings, levitated in midair, and then sprinted.
Xu Yunshu has never fought against the queen ant.
However, in his spare time, he also tried to simulate the scene of fighting such a swarm of creatures.
In his imagination, the battle with the ant colony should be similar to "Gulliver's Travels", where the villains perform their duties, charge in groups, and brush him as the big boss.
However, what actually happened was beyond his imagination.
Unexpectedly, the candidate for the big boss was not him, but the queen ant.
The behemoth flew at an astonishing speed, and its size didn't limit its speed, but seemed to be a boost.
Only a few seconds later, this huge and palpitating queen had already arrived at Xu Yunshu's side.
This is also the result of Xu Yunshu strengthening his limbs and waist and abdomen.
He had to come up with an idea to get out of the pursuit of this terrifying queen ant as soon as possible.
Xu Yunshu couldn't fight the queen ant, this was due to two considerations.
First, if Xu Yunshu turned around and fought with the queen ant, he would not have any room to spare his hands in the face of this terrifying giant insect.
Although the queen ant is parasitized by strange insects, she is still alive.
To live is to have hope.
Once Xu Yunshu wins miserably and kills the queen ant by mistake, Guo Xiaojie is afraid that he will die completely.
The second thing to consider is the strange silk thread that lurks in the body of the queen ant, which is the body of those strange insects.
Xu Yunshu couldn't guarantee that they wouldn't take the opportunity to get into his body during the fierce fight.
Just one carelessness will plunge into a terrible abyss.
Xu Yunshu's advantage in surviving in the Dream Forest is his human wisdom and the exploitation of his adaptive evolutionary potential.
If he is drilled into his body by this strange silk thread and becomes bloodthirsty and brainless, he will not be far from death.
You must flee now, and then find a way!
