Chapter 146: Dissecting the Beast
Thor is suddenly attacked by a purple-black strip of flesh, but for him it is finally the end of the boring journey.
"Compare tentacles with me?" Thor didn't move, and the small algae on the back of his neck suddenly came out, and then split into ten in the air, quickly burrowing into the ground around Thor body.
Thor felt the strip of flesh entangled in him immediately let go of his leg and ran down.
Thor pressed his hands on the ground, and with a little force, he pulled his legs out.
Looking at the large hole in the ground that is constantly denting, take two steps back, and wait for the algae to return.
After a few breaths, the sand beneath his feet began to tremble, and the ground around him began to shake with a rumbling sound.
The small algae tenses, then pulls, slowly pulling out of the ground.
The knotted vines netted a huge clod of earth, and little by little it emerged from the ground. The black-gray dust on the clods of dirt fell in clusters, forming a waterfall of sand.
A large amount of dust flew up in the sky, and for a moment the visibility dropped to less than a meter.
Thor held his breath, his eyes narrowed, waiting for the great monster in the dirt to appear.
Finally, after most of the dirt was shaken off by the small algae, inside the criss-crossed black vines, a huge beast with a body length of three meters appeared.
The beast had a huge mouth and a relatively thin body and limbs. It looks as if only the mouth can eat, and the other limbs are about to degenerate.
The purple-red strip of flesh that once wrapped around Thor's right leg was its tongue.
When it was pulled out of the ground by the algae, it immediately stretched out its most powerful weapon, its tongue, and desperately tore at the vines of the algae.
But the current algae is not at all something that ordinary beasts can fight against.
The unknown beast saw that one tongue could not break free from the shackles of the small algae, and four tongues appeared from its mouth again.
Five tongues wrapped around different vines, pulling in different directions, as if trying to break free of the algae with brute force.
But its resistance still failed.
"Alright, algae, you let it go first."
The small algae, which was still wrapped like a ball of wool, was immediately withdrawn. The huge beast immediately fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust again.
As soon as the beast landed, it was about to burrow into the dirt, but Thor grabbed him by the tail and threw it over his shoulder and threw it backwards.
Taking advantage of the opponent's four feet in the sky, Thor jumped directly onto the opponent's white belly, and stepped on the beast's huge mouth with one foot, making it want to open its mouth to attack Thor but couldn't.
He had already seen that the beast usually hunted by vibration, hiding under the sand, and its limbs were short and weak except for its mouth.
Even digging a pit and ambush relied on the mouth and the resilient and flexible tongue inside.
Just as Thor was about to check on the beast, the spiritual power he attached to the compass transmitted back to the sense, and the chaotic compass had cooled down.
Thor looked down and measured the time, it should be less than a day, about 20 hours to 22 hours.
The beast at his feet was taking advantage of Thor not paying attention, and was constantly patting the dirt with its small limbs.
The rhythmic regularity seems to be a purposeful slap.
"Is it asking for help from its companions? But this kind of guy can't move very fast, right? ”
Thor thought about it for a while, and decided not to wait for the second beast to appear, and directly activated the Chaos Compass and returned to the wizarding master world.
Thor looked up and saw a mushroom grove in the distance and a wizard's tower nestled in a misty white mist.
"Yes, there were no accidents, and I came back smoothly."
Thor lifted his feet, and the long-tongued big-mouthed monster that had snuck up on him returned with him.
It's just that he is motionless now, and when he looks closely, he finds that the other party is already too dead to die.
Thor's spiritual power swept through and found that there were many active elemental particles in this monster's body.
"That's right, just as there is water pressure underwater, there is also elemental pressure where the concentration of elemental particles varies greatly. It's so uncomfortable for me to enter a chaotic realm with no active elements, it has never entered a borderland filled with a large number of elemental particles without active elements, and it is like suddenly entering the deep sea from the surface of the sea, and it is directly crushed to death. ”
Algae ran out again, passed through the beast's mouth, and put a few laps around his massive skull, hanging the beast directly in the air.
It seems that Thor has just returned from a hunting trip.
On the Rhine, huge figures are walking on the ice. The butler was the first to walk out of the wizard's tower, looking up at the huge beast, also with its mouth slightly wide open.
"Welcome back, Lord Tower, but I didn't know you were out hunting."
Thor reluctantly moved the beast from the stairwell to the basement level, and as soon as he vacated a test bench and put the beast on it, he saw several consciousnesses and the old witch running over curiously.
Camus didn't say anything, but his eyes were on the new monster.
"Where did this beast come from? I don't see any magic fluctuations in my body, but it looks so strange, I've never seen it before. The old witch stepped forward and poked the beast's head with her finger.
"Hunted from a place you haven't been to. But it's something special, so I'll look into it later. ”
Thor expertly dissected the beast, inspecting its anatomy.
"Cartilage in the body accounts for a large proportion." Agu assisted, "It doesn't seem to use its body much for hunting. ”
"Well," Thor replied casually, checking the blood and flesh, "lying flat for too long." ”
He then proceeded to dissect the beast's head.
The bones are hard, and the skull is somewhat similar to that of a snake, and can devour prey larger than its head.
Dismantling and dismantling, Thor suddenly grasped the beast's five black-purple tongues, ran them down his throat, and slowly pushed them out.
The base of the beast's tongue is not in the mouth, but in the esophagus, and is connected by a grape-shaped sarcoma.
When Thor tried to cut the sarcoma off with a knife, he was shocked to find that the inside of the sarcoma was moving.
He put a layer of protection on the bench and began to cut through the sarcoma, but the sharp knife failed to leave a single wound on the sarcoma.
Thor switched to two more, and the sharper tools still failed to cut through the sarcoma.
The old witch stretched out a finger, and the tip of the finger instantly transformed into a blade, "Do you need my help?" ”
Thor shook his head and said, "It's not a matter of tools. ”
He snapped his fingers, and a black blade fragment appeared on his fingertips.
With a flick of his fingers, the sarcoma, which had not yet been cut, was easily separated like cheese, revealing the texture of tofu residue inside.
Thor took out the stirring rod, stirred it inside, and held it up to his eyes.
"It doesn't seem to be completely deactivated." Thor rubbed the substance on the stirrer into the test tube and handed it to Agu, "Go and test the basic properties, and in addition, be careful to seal it so that the contents do not leak to the outside world." ”
Agu naturally knew where Thor had brought this beast back, so he didn't say anything, just nodded cautiously.
"Do you suspect that this beast is poisonous?" The old witch asked.
"There's always something special about this sarcoma being the last organ to be inactivated in the beast," Saul said. It's always a good idea to be careful. ”
Hearing this, the old witch looked at the sarcoma on the beast with much eagerness.
Seeing this, Thor immediately told Agu, "Destroy the sample immediately after the test." ”
The old witch rolled her eyes.
Thor then looked at the remaining stirring rod in his hand and saw that there seemed to be some black particles on it.
He extracted the particles and found that they shattered at the touch of a single touch, turning into a finer powder.
This scene is so familiar.
Thor immediately took out two small bottles from his body.
Both bottles were filled with black powder, one more and one less.
The two bottles contained the sand of the chaotic region and the floating debris in the air, respectively.
Thor used existing tools to briefly test the three powders and found that their physical behavior was surprisingly consistent.
"Could it be that this organ of the beast is used to filter the black dust that enters the body?"
Suddenly, Saul's thoughts are interrupted by Camus.
Her eyes widened as she looked at the petri dish on Thor's desk, "How can that beast have a hypnozoite with a source of pollution?" ”
"What?" Thor and the others were shocked by the message in Camus's words, and they all turned back.
Camus pursed his lips, the expression on his face was a little tangled, "You can check those sources of contamination that you sealed with your tentacles." If it is sealed long enough, the source of contamination goes into hibernation. Then its shape should be the same as the black powder in your hand. ”
Thor: "...... Gan! ”
