Chapter 35: Predator Core
Predators are part of Pandora, special beings with no self-consciousness, they are of unknown origin, of unknown race, and as mysterious and terrifying as Pandora, but under the absolute control of the predator's core.
The "predator core" is a tool made by Pandora, and at some point in her previous life, an idea suddenly appeared in Pandora's consciousness - why not divide a part of the predators to give Lin Xi's descendants to each plane, so that you can get more ways to obtain food.
So Pandora created the predatory core and tried to integrate it into Lin Xi's descendant.
But whether it's a tenacious cyclops, a lich with undead magic, or even an adult green dragon who touches the legendary realm, the moment it merges with the predator, the flesh will shatter and collapse, and then be devoured by the predator.
After repeated attempts, Pandora discovered that there was a great deal of rejection between them, creating a war inside the body of the Descendant, where the predator could not coexist with any life, and it was they who destroyed the body of the Descendant.
There is only one exception, and that is Lin Xi's body parasitized by Pandora.
However, even Lin Xi, if he wants to merge with the predator, he will have to bear a huge price.
The first thing to bear the brunt of is the body, Lin Xi and Pandora have been prepared for a long time, and they will try to fuse after their physique reaches transcendence.
But the appearance of the Mother of the Corpse Turtle disrupted the plan, and its value was high enough for Lin Xi to take a huge risk to act in advance.
After the predator burrowed into Lin Xi's skin in the form of black lines, it collapsed into extremely tiny molecules, which flowed into the blood and flowed to every corner of the body, embedded in the fascia, penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and fused with the flesh and skin.
In this process, the pain that reached the soul spread throughout his body, and Lin Xikan's physique exceeded the average of adult men, and he was completely unable to withstand the invasion of predators. Even with the blessing of the 'Demon Physique', the surface of Lin Xi's body was cracked with blood marks, and the inside was even more messy.
Fortunately, the "regeneration" ability contributed by the burrowing giant worm barely maintained the balance, so that the body would not collapse.
Every cell in the body seems to be telling about hunger, and all organs express the desire for food.
It's hard to describe the feeling, as if your fingers suddenly convey fear or excitement.
Lin Xi knew that this meant that the integration had been initially successful.
Previously, Lin Xi had the initiative to prey with the authority given by Pandora, but the actual predator was still Pandora.
And now that the predator has become a part of Lin Xi's body, it is equivalent to Lin Xi having obtained part of the ability of "dimensional predation", and with just a thought, all parts of his body can be turned into a source of devouring at any time.
This also means that Lin Xi is completely out of the category of human beings, and is moving closer to a divine or even more supernatural existence.
……
Lin Xi looked down and saw that in the symmetrical place between the chest and the heart on the right, an irregular spherical object with red and black overlapping appeared, and black lines spread out around it, taking root in the flesh and blood, contracting regularly.
This is the predation core, which controls all the predators in Lin Xi's body, which is almost equivalent to another heart.
With the contraction of the predator core, bursts of intense hunger surged in.
The Mother of the Corpse Turtle twitched on the spot after throwing Lin Xi away, and it seemed that those huge amounts of strong acid had caused it a lot of trouble.
The rest of the ordinary corpse turtles and iron-armored corpse turtles crawled towards Lin Xi one after another under the orders of the corpse turtle's mother.
A corpse turtle bit Lin Xi's arm, but it was blocked by the armor composed of predators on the surface, and the armor squirmed, expanding rapidly from the junction of the arm and the corpse turtle's mouthparts, turning into an abyssal giant mouth to wrap the entire head of the corpse turtle into it, and in less than half a second, countless cracks inside tore it into pieces.
The exposed body and tail of the corpse turtle twitched a few times and did not move, and then it was devoured by the predator one by one.
The flesh and insect crystals were crushed, the waste products were expelled by the predators, and the rest all poured into the predator core, which was converted into pure energy in the predator core and transmitted to Lin Xi's body, repairing the wounds caused by the pressure of the predators.
"Lin Xi, how does it taste?" Pandora asked eagerly.
"I can't feel any taste," Lin Xi said expressionlessly, "Presumably my body doesn't produce a sense of taste." ”
Predators do not have a taste system, and Pandora can feel the taste of food, only if she tastes the monster crushed by the predator with her body.
There were more and more corpses and turtles around, and they were getting closer and closer, Lin Xi got up, his exposed left eye was shrouded in scarlet, and terrifying phantoms with different postures emerged from behind, and then shattered into dark light and shadow poured into Lin Xi's body.
The power of the floating slaughter is activated, and a powerful force emerges in the body, and even the pressure brought by the predator is much less.
The red streamer surged on the surface of the pitch-black armor composed of the predator, and the extreme impulse of destruction was mixed with the devouring desire brought by the predator, almost shaking Lin Xi's will, but fortunately he was forcibly suppressed by the Mental Termination Beacon.
Feeling the terrible situation inside his body, Lin Xi knew that he had to fight quickly.
With a thunderclap, the dazzling electric light spread, paralyzing the surrounding corpse turtles and shaking back dozens of feet at the same time.
Lin Xi's body quickly rushed out like a black phantom, and the target was directly aimed at the mother of the corpse turtle not far away, grabbing the two poor corpse turtles with both claws, and devouring them on the way.
The mother of corpse turtles locked on Lin Xi's right eye, and a violent light flashed in its scarlet pupils, ignoring the injuries inside its body, its insect legs swayed rapidly, like a steel fortress crushing towards Lin Xi, and the ground trembled.
The corpse turtles beside him also rushed to surround Lin Xi, especially the two iron-armored corpse turtles that caused a lot of trouble.
Lin Xi's left eye flashed red, and under a pitch-black curtain, the spherical area centered on Lin Xi was suddenly shrouded in invisible darkness.
Several corpse turtles that were covered stopped and waved their insect limbs in place in panic, digging a huge pit under them.
However, the mother of the corpse turtle seemed to be completely unaffected, and after just a pause, she continued to stab the worm leg at Lin Xi, which was avoided by Lin Xi.
The body of the Mother of the Corpse Turtle is the weakest of the six insect kings, and its proud huge body is nothing compared to the Holy Armor Centipede King, and its mobility is far inferior to that of the six-winged dragon lice, and its attack methods are crushed by the Black Sky Demon Worm.
But even so, Lin Xi felt very tricky, the insect armor on the surface of the mother of the corpse turtle was even harder than the iron-armored corpse turtle, not to mention the bone blade and the like, even the current predator could not break through.
The lack of attack means is Lin Xi's biggest problem, as soon as he encounters a worm like the Giant Worm or the Mother of the Corpse Turtle, he has no way to start, and even if the strongest spell "Thunder Wave" can break through the insect beetle and hurt the inside, it cannot threaten their lives.
Fortunately, the mother of corpse turtles is not invulnerable, its eyes and abdomen are exposed outside the protection of the insect beetle, and according to the damage caused by strong acid, its internal defense is also not high.
