Chapter 176: Not at all
Zhao Meng, who returned to the illusory space again, was in a trance:
"It's over!"
Glancing at the existence in the illusory space, Zhao Meng eased up a little and then began to extract entries.
At this moment, a colorful lottery holder had appeared in front of the phantom, Zhao Meng touched it with his mind, and a white light appeared in front of him.
【Back and anus (white)】
"Allows the back to have an excretory opening"
Seeing this entry, Zhao Meng was stunned for a moment:
"How did you get this entry out!"
Zhao Meng didn't think it was strange that the starfish would appear dorsal and anal entries.
After all, benthic organisms mostly lie on the ground and lick things, and in this case, many organisms have a convergent structure such as dorsal anus.
"However, I remember that the entry was supposed to be blue on the nudibranch!"
"It seems that different creatures have different degrees of dorsal anus, and the level of the entries drawn is also different." After Zhao Meng muttered, he continued to extract the entries.
"It's out again, it's blue!"
With a blue light, a new entry appeared in front of Zhao Meng, however, Zhao Meng was a little disappointed when he saw the content above:
"It's not vomiting."
【Radiant Digestive System (Blue)】
"Your digestive system can extend symmetrically in the body, and depending on the extension of the branches, the digestive function will increase exponentially or exponentially."
"Hiss~"
"It's not!"
"What do you mean?"
Seeing the content of this entry, Zhao Meng, who came back to his senses, was speechless, and at this moment he even had a feeling that he was about to burst into foul language.
"Digestive ......"
He could imagine what would happen if he used this entry on Yun Fu, who was originally expecting his seniors to save his little boyfriend.
But who would have thought that if he went down with an entry, this Hu Jiang would suddenly disappear without a trace.
Then he had to touch Yun Fu's little belly to comfort her: "Don't worry that he and you will be together forever!" ”
"Isn't she trying to find me desperately?"
"Go on! If you can't draw it, you can only do it for two weeks. ”
Thinking of this, Zhao Meng looked at the sticker, and after calming down a little, he continued to touch the sticker with his mind, only to see a flash of light, and Zhao Meng's expression changed slightly:
"Oh no, it's purple!"
"Tsk!"
[Suck (purple), come!] Let me hug it]
"When you hug, your limbs gain the ability to attach to the other person, and your tearing ability is greatly enhanced."
"Uh...... It's a rare entry to increase attack power, but it's also too strange to use it. ”
"The effect of this entry is similar to what I had speculated before, but it requires a hug to make a difference, and its restrictions are too great"
"It's like the fox girl I met before, if you suddenly rush up and hug her, don't say if you can get the [Pull and Sup] attack bonus,
If you are seen by your own descendants, or by people you are familiar with, will you not be considered a pervert? ”
"What's more, I will also suck on the other party's body, if the other party's strength is strong, and they can't tear the other party's flesh, they can only tear their clothes, then this kind of behavior is even more perverted."
"This kind of entry is really strange, if it's [sucking] a woman, forget it, if it's a man......"
Zhao Meng didn't dare to continue to think, looking at these three entries, he sighed helplessly:
"It looks like we can only do it for two weeks."
At this time, the phantom has been blurred a little, and the facial features that were originally faintly visible have become more illusory.
"I don't know how many more times I can simulate it."
Thinking of this, he planned to enter the second week of the starfish.
But at this time, he found that the white light cluster representing the starfish did not react.
That's when he remembered something: "You have to choose an entry!" ”
He looked at the three entries again, and he had no choice between them:
The [Radiant Digestive System] is inevitably unselectable, and the use conditions of [Extraction and Suction] are extremely harsh, and the only thing that is useful at present is the [dorsal anus] of the starfish.
"Anyway, there's a backup plan."
"I just hope that I don't use this entry in the end."
As a white light entered his consciousness, the remaining purple and blue light flew back into the phantom of the human head and snake tail, and at this time, the starfish's second week could finally be opened.
……
The familiar flow of water touched a starfish, and Zhao Meng stretched out his wrist and foot and shook it:
"It's an adult starfish!"
Feeling his physical state, Zhao Meng breathed a sigh of relief, not having to grow from the planktonic larval state of the starfish, which can be said to save a lot of time.
Even with human intelligence, he will inevitably have to reopen many times in the floating state of the starfish.
"What is the goal of the second week?"
Zhao Meng glanced at the system's text prompt:
"Survive, multiply!" Zhao Meng was a little surprised to see the mission goal given by the system,
"It doesn't seem to be any different from the goal of the week."
Zhao Meng muttered and carefully hid under the rock.
Although he was surprised, he knew that the difficulty of the second week was much higher than that of the first week, and while he became an adult, the difficulty of survival would not become lower.
"Hiss~ It's so cold!"
After hiding for a while, Zhao Meng felt the abnormality of the surrounding environment. A cold breath rushed down the water to his body.
It's not surprising that there are cold snaps,
The environment in the sea is far more complex than one might think, and what's really strange is that this cold snap is coming from overhead and suppressing the warm water layer below.
"It's an ice cap!" Zhao Meng, who felt the abnormality, immediately climbed out of the stone crack and sensed something with his tentacles.
"Something is down!"
An inexplicable fear came to his mind, driving him to leave here quickly,
Through the compound eye in front of the brachiopod, which only has the ability to sense light, Zhao Meng "sees" something:
"It's icicles!"
Zhao Meng didn't know why there were icicles abruptly extending from the ice sheet to the bottom of the sea.
He also didn't know what would happen to this icicle as it extended to the bottom of the sea, but there was absolutely nothing wrong with leaving here.
Zhao Meng was trying to leave, but the starfish's ability to move was not fast, he only crawled a distance, and then he saw the icicles that touched the bottom of the sea.
The white "mist" spread at the bottom of the sea, and he could feel a terrifying chill spreading in all directions from around the icicles.
Some starfish who could not leave were suddenly frozen in a mist.
Zhao Meng climbed forward a few more steps, and a terrifying cold snap descended from above.
"There's one over there."
"It's also up here." Zhao Meng kept dodging, but in the end, because he couldn't dodge, he was entangled in a cold current.
At this moment, Zhao Meng felt his tongue lick the popsicle that had just been taken out of the refrigerator, and his soft wrists and feet were sticky.
Zhao Meng wanted to struggle, but more "cold air" extended along the bottom of the sea towards his body, and after a while, his entire body was frozen.
"Oops!"
Seeing that he couldn't move at all, Zhao Meng thought that his simulation was going to fail this time, but it was strange that he was not kicked out of the simulation, and he could still feel the presence of the starfish.
"He's not dead!"
Zhao Meng was trapped, unable to move, he could only wait for the icicles to dissipate, and in the face of the situation of being unable to move, he could only study the mathematical model and configuration of the Jindan period under boredom.
I don't know how long it took, a warm current came, and Zhao Meng felt the vitality of his wrists and feet.
"Unblocked!"
Recovering from the freezing, Zhao Meng moved his five wrists and feet:
"There was no problem!"
He felt the magic of the starfish again, and at this moment, a familiar breath came from the seawater.
"Breeding season, it's coming!"
Feeling this breath, Zhao Meng rushed towards a place, only to see that in a depression, a group of starfish were gathering there to do something.
Seeing this familiar scene, Zhao Meng found an area above the ocean current and raised a wrist and foot:
"This starfish's second week seems to be too simplistic."
However, just when Zhao Meng thought that he could complete the second week of the starfish so easily, the raised wrists and feet suddenly stiffened.
"Why not!"
"Is it blocked!"
Zhao Meng shook his wrists and feet, but there was still no cloud and mist coming out.
He continued to shake his wrists and feet, he could be sure that he was a male starfish, and he had all the accessories he needed on his wrists and feet, but he couldn't release anything.
Seeing that the starfish in the depression had already begun, he hurriedly changed his wrists and feet:
"It doesn't matter, this wrist and foot can't work, there's the next one."
"Why not!"
The clouds and mist in the depression have begun to spread, Zhao Meng is a little anxious, and the remaining three wrists and feet will not try one by one, so they will be released together.
The results that can be used made Zhao Meng stunned:
"No, not at all!"
"Could it be that it is frozen!"
Zhao Meng finally reacted at this moment:
"But human beings can be frozen and stored, why are starfish broken?" Zhao Meng didn't understand.
"Maybe it's the reason for the just thaw."
The starfish in the depression gradually dispersed, and only Zhao Meng on one side kept trying something.
……
"Still won't work!"
After some more time, the temperature of the sea continued to rise, and the ice sheet overhead disappeared completely.
Starfish at the bottom of the sea are also active, and they often gather together to hold something.
Only Zhao Meng hid to the side, looking at the starfish that released the clouds and mist, and he was unwilling.
Success was in sight, but he just couldn't go any further, and this feeling of powerlessness was the most uncomfortable of all the animals he had ever simulated.
"Reopen!"
Zhao Meng thought that the icicles had damaged his body, so he found the predator and reopened it.
……
[Second Week Simulation]
With the experience of the last time, Zhao Meng managed to dodge the icicles that extended from the ice cap and spent the winter in a safe place.
Warm currents are here again, the ice is melting and it's breeding season.
"I'm fucking" Zhao Meng, who has always been civilized, finally couldn't help but burst into a foul language.
"Breeding! Breed a ghost! What the system gave me was a eunuch starfish, how to reproduce this? ”
Looking at those starfish who shook their wrists and feet and released clouds and mist, Zhao Meng was very uncomfortable.
"Calm down! It's just two weeks, and the system shouldn't give such a difficult task. ”
Zhao Meng forced himself to calm down, and when he calmed down, he suddenly made a discovery:
"The starfish simulated this time and the starfish simulated last time don't seem to be the same species!"
"Is there any such thing as this?"
Sensing this situation, Zhao Meng was not in a hurry to participate in these starfish, but hid aside and observed.
The concentration of starfish will inevitably attract some predators, and in this cold sea, starfish seem to have a particularly large number of predators.
Among the many natural predators, Zhao Meng noticed a strange big-headed fish with a large lump on its head.
This fish likes to bite starfish, some of which are eaten and some of which are torn apart.
When he saw the stumps scattered on the ground, he was surprised to find that this kind of starfish's severed limbs could actually eat by themselves, Zhao Meng, who saw this scene, suddenly thought of something:
"Do you mean ......?"
Unsure of what to do, he continued to observe the severed brachiopods, most of which had been eaten by other predators or starfish, but there were some lucky ones who survived.
"There are four small brachiopods on these brachiopods, which is called the rebirth of a severed limb."
Zhao Meng was surprised by the starfish's behavior, it was like a person cutting off his arm, throwing his arm aside, and then a person grew out of his arm.
And this phenomenon also made Zhao Meng understand the breeding method of the second week.
"Self-splitting?"
"How to divide it!"
Combined with the observed phenomena, Zhao Meng already had an idea.
……
"To die, to die......" Zhao Meng, who had only a third of his body, was hiding under a rock, gasping for a long time.
This is the seventh simulation he conducted, and even after the fifth simulation, he still hasn't succeeded in splitting himself.
"The odds of splitting yourself with a predator are too small."
"There's got to be a different way." Recalling his previous attempts, Zhao Meng was both painful and helpless.
The predator is mainly a feeder, and he is easily eaten, even if he leaves a severed limb, he is easily eaten by other starfish.
"It would be nice if I could take the initiative to separate my body!"
"But how do you tear your body off?"
Thinking of this, Zhao Meng thought about it, it was not that he had not tried this method before, but the resilience of the starfish was very high, and it was not easy to complete the body separation with his own strength.
"I didn't expect that those icicles at the beginning were just appetizers, and the reproduction later was the real difficulty."
"Wait, icicles!" Thinking of the icicles that could stick to him, Zhao Meng's consciousness was shocked:
"Maybe ice! I remember a friend from the north in my previous life who said that ice can make soft things get brittle. ”
"And this type of starfish can survive the ice."
"In that case......"
……
[The 8th simulation of the second week]
Zhao Meng successfully used icicles to tear off one of his wrists and feet, but when the ice melted, the wrists and feet were quickly swallowed by other starfish.
[The 11th simulation of the second week]
Zhao Meng successfully protected a broken wrist and foot, and Zhao Meng was happy to see the growth of this wrist and foot, but in the end, this wrist and foot was still devoured by predators.
[The 16th simulation of the second week]
A strange starfish with extremely long brachial feet and four other short brachiopods appeared beside Zhao Meng.
[Simulation successful!] 】
Seeing the prompt of the system, Zhao Meng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart:
"Finally it worked!"
……
After Zhao Meng eased up from the simulation, he slowly opened his eyes, and he saw the anxious cloud rune:
"Senpai!"
"Wait!"
Saying that, Zhao Meng closed his eyes again and came to the illusory space.
Without much hesitation, he touched the colored sticker that appeared again, and began to extract the entry, only to see a blue light flash, and then the content of the entry appeared in front of him:
【Vomiting stomach (blue)】
"Your stomach can spit out and wrap and digest the food outside your body."
