Chapter 179 The terrifying devouring ability of blood nematodes
The body of this giant "Moro Corpse King Flower" is full of dense and flexible "mouthparts" like cow hair. But it is not a rootless duckweed, it must have fixed tissues.
The three legends took turns to borrow the power and acted as the spearhead, and soon they entered the designated area. Then they found a place to stay.
Although the tentacle "mouthparts" are everywhere in the ruins, the deeper you go into the roots of the tentacles, the safer you will be.
It's like a louse in a monkey's hair. It jumps around on the outside of the fur and can be easily caught and strangled to death and eaten. But it burrows deep into the hair and nothing can be done about it.
Of course, deadly threats also exist.
It just changed from tentacles to strong acid that can easily corrode steel.
…
Ryan was still sleepwalking when he suddenly saw the surrounding environment change. Then he finally lost that strong feeling of "flying" and his soul, which was about to leave his body, finally merged with his body again.
It seemed like I stepped on something soft. When I looked closely, I saw a piece of soft scarlet flesh that looked like a stomach sac.
With a little perception, one can clearly feel the "ground" moving.
Bazel was panting, obviously exhausted from the rush just now. He said to Ryan, "Ryan, the three of us will try to delay for three days. The rest depends on you..."
Now, all they had to do was to survive in the swamp-like acid for three days.
In this kind of strong acid environment, there is no point in building an isolation zone. This acid can corrode almost all substances. If even a little bit of it leaks in, we still have to use fighting spirit to block it.
So the method they thought of was simple and crude. The three legends were like light bulbs, taking turns to blast out their fighting spirit, and then created a poisonous gas isolation space of about two cubic meters.
At this moment, it was the Great Shaman of Mafa who had the strongest fighting spirit who made a move. He held up a ball of dazzling white fighting spirit and enveloped the four of them.
Bazel and Canossa immediately sat cross-legged in meditation, took out their magic cores and began to recover their fighting spirit.
"good!"
Ryan didn't dare to delay. He took off his heavy armor and exposed his upper body.
He decisively took out the scalpel and without hesitation cut several long cuts on his right arm from the shoulder blade to the palm. Then he pulled a corner of the skin, like skinning a snake, and peeled off the skin of his entire right arm in one "tear".
Because he was very skilled in human anatomy, Ryan's cuts were quick and precise, and his skinning was done without any delay. In the blink of an eye, he had peeled off an arm with scarlet muscles and exposed blood vessels.
Although the other three legends were knowledgeable, their eyelids twitched when they saw Ryan peeling his own skin.
Ryan did not delay either. He injected some medicine into the wriggling "rock wall" next to him, then cut a hole in it. Before the monster healed, he stuffed his bloody right arm in.
He planted himself in this monster just like planting flowers.
Then, Ryan took out various cultivation potions and anti-rejection potions and injected them into the junction of his arm and the monster in order...
The initial feeling of rejection was very strong. The monster was huge, and although it couldn't feel anything unusual, it instinctively rejected the thing that had penetrated its body. The immune systems of both sides were fighting each other frantically.
This process is probably like the compatibility of oil and water. At first, they are two completely different things, but with the help of the drug, they gradually become a paste. In the end, it will reach the point where both Ryan's immune system and the monster slowly begin to feel that the other party is "one of their own"...
After the first step is completed, the next step is to continue injecting the drug for assimilation until part of Ryan's body circulation is involved in the monster's body circulation, and then the entire "grafting" will be completed.
…
On the first day, the four of them were relatively relaxed.
Mafa, Canossa and Bazel took turns fighting to keep the show going.
Ryan was always on guard against being "repelled" and all his previous efforts being wasted, and he often used lightning-type fighting spirit lines to sew his arms and the monsters together.
the next day.
Even the three legends were struggling.
Ryan's reaction was even greater.
An assimilation reaction occurred on his body, and some strange petals grew out of his skin, like small corpse flowers.
However, these are all minor problems. As long as they can be fully integrated, [Divine Healing Technique] can quickly resolve these negative conditions.
On the third day, everyone was having a hard time.
Canossa and Bazel's faces were pale. The continuous consumption of fighting spirit had brought a huge burden to their bodies.
Even if he wanted to use Mafa's bottomless sea of qi, it was all used up, and he had to use high-level magic cores to frantically replenish his fighting spirit.
However, the good thing is that because the calculations of the "intelligent brain" were rigorous and correct, the "transplant operation" went smoothly as Ryan expected.
Finally, Ryan, whose skin had turned as dark as if he had been poisoned, no longer felt that sense of rejection.
He knew that his arm had successfully "taken root" in the monster's body!
…
"It's done!"
Ryan's words instantly perked up the three legends.
Bazel was overjoyed: "Haha, if you don't do anything, I'll be exhausted..."
Canossa also let out a long breath, feeling relieved for the time being. She looked at Ryan and said calmly, "Be careful."
Ryan nodded, took out a potion and handed it to her, saying, "This is a potion that will put the bug to sleep . If something unexpected happens, just cut off my arm and then inject the potion."
Canossa nodded and said decisively: "Okay, leave it to me."
At this time, Ryan took out a little more pink powder and said solemnly: "In one minute, I will activate the worms in my body. Judging from the size of this 'Moro Corpse King Flower', it may take a long time for the worms to absorb it and mature. The rest is up to you. Don't let my arm separate from the flesh wall..."
With Mafa, the "human life-saving machine", here, Ryan doesn't have to worry about dying on the spot.
"good!"
After hearing this, the three legends nodded and prepared themselves for any emergency.
"call……"
At this moment, Ryan took a deep breath, as if he was standing on the edge of a cliff and taking one last look at the world.
He didn't know what would happen next.
Because everything is theoretical.
Although this "alien biological limb technology" already has two living examples from his teachers Irubek and Tust, both the "neural blood nematodes" and the "Morocad Flower" are things that are far beyond the scope of theory.
No one can guarantee that it will succeed.
Ryan was also extremely decisive. After making preparations, he took a deep breath of the powder.
Then the next moment, I felt a swelling sensation in my arm, as if something was about to drill out of my arm.
Ryan had experienced an insect infestation once before, so this feeling was not surprising.
His pupils shrank suddenly, and he shouted softly: "Here it comes!"
In just that instant, he felt that his right arm suddenly expanded like a balloon that had exploded, but in another instant, he had no feeling at all.
But the good thing is that the body doesn’t show any signs of shrinking!
Ryan was overjoyed: "It seems that the isolation-type insect repellent is very successful!"
As long as the body doesn't show signs of shrinking at the first moment, it means that the most dangerous step has been taken.
His heart was beating in his throat and he was staring at his right arm with full attention.
Basel, who was about to chop off his hand, and Canossa, who was holding the medicine ready for injection, also looked nervous.
They looked at the joy on Ryan's face and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Canossa: "Done?"
Ryan replied: "The first step is done."
Bazel didn't notice anything unusual and asked, "Why does it feel like there is no change? Did it not achieve the expected effect?"
"have no idea……"
Ryan's arm had lost all feeling and he didn't know what had happened.
But in the next moment, something strange happened!
The "ground" where the four people were standing suddenly shrank visibly, like a balloon leaking air at an astonishing speed!
"careful!"
Fortunately, all three of them are legends and their reactions are extremely fast.
The three of them grabbed Ryan's body almost at the same time, preventing him from pulling his hands out of the monster's body.
At this time, they all saw that the flesh walls within a radius of hundreds of meters withered, and all the " mouthparts " were sucked dry in an instant, turning into a charred black color like dead grass.
Bazel exclaimed, "Fuck, this is fucking weird."
Last time at Storm Lake, this red-haired guy had wiped out their entire army. Seeing him again still made his scalp tingle.
…
In the blink of an eye, what emerged from the monster's flesh were no longer "red lines", but "bloody earthworms" as thick as bowls that kept swaying!
As the shrinking speed increased, the red blood vessels became more and more numerous and larger, covering a wider area...
In the blink of an eye, all the "mouthpart" tentacles that were previously all over the field of vision turned into increasingly plump blood nematodes!
"Ryan boy, you really succeeded!"
Seeing this, Basel was overjoyed.
The legendary supernatural beings had such sharp perception that they clearly sensed that the aura of the monsters under their feet had suddenly dropped a lot, like a dam bursting.
Ryan felt very excited, his right arm finally had feeling again!
Moreover, it seemed that those "blood nematodes" had been connected to his nerves. He felt as if those blood nematodes had become an extension of his arms, just like earthworms drilling into the soil, drilling hard into the monster's body!
The monster seemed to have sensed the changes in its body and instinctively wanted to flush out the thing that was sucking its blood.
But just like a mosquito sucking blood, by the time you feel the pain and itching, it’s already too late to reverse the situation.
Those blood nematodes have spread for thousands of meters, like several roots firmly rooted, unable to break free.
This is also the reason why Ryan chose to "transplant" the core of this monster before, just to make it impossible for it to "cut off its tail to survive"!
However, the size of this "Moro Corpse King Flower" is too large. Even if its body fluids leak out like a dam bursting, its vitality still cannot be completely consumed in a short period of time...
Countless tentacles began to attack Ryan and his companions frantically, but before they got close, they were sucked dry by the blood nematodes and fell down without Basel and his companions having to do anything.
…
now,
Outside the "Forest of Ashes", in the temporary defense base surrounded by more than a dozen mechanical cities, gunfire roared. The wasteland hunters who were fighting against endless zombies also saw the changes in the giant flower in the center of the forest.
"Look! That giant flower seems to be withering again..."
Everyone saw that the giant flower that was ten thousand meters tall was shrinking at a speed of several dozen meters per second.
"It's simply unbelievable. This hell creature has such a strong vitality that it could live for tens of thousands of years. I didn't expect it to wither now..."
"Yeah, it looked like Su Xing was eating before, how come it suddenly withered?"
"Brothers, don't worry about that monster, just kill it! Although these 'zombie black crystals' are less effective than magic cores, they are definitely valuable. If we can get back alive, we will be rich!"
“…”
No one knew what was going on, and no one dared to leave the Mechanical City to check.
What they have to face are waves of zombies.
…
At the same time, in a stone chamber somewhere inside the giant flower, the red-robed wizards, whose magic power had also been exhausted and whose faces were pale, also felt the unusual movements from the outside world.
Because a large amount of the monster's body fluids were sucked dry, the stone chamber where they were tied up by countless mouthparts became unstable and fell down.
When everyone broke through the wall, they discovered that the tentacles around them were shrinking on a large scale.
"Hey! Look, it's those guys!"
The perception of the top-level extraordinary people is so sensitive that this group of red-robed wizards naturally saw Ryan and his companions at a glance.
They looked at Basel and the other two protecting Ryan, and naturally understood something.
"No wonder those guys have been so angry these past few days. It turns out they didn't want to break out, but instead made such a big fuss..."
"Even if we collectively practice the five-ring [Withering Technique], we can only wither a small part of the flesh wall, and the monster will recover in a blink of an eye. How did they make this giant flower with such exaggerated vitality wither..."
"Haha, no matter how he did it, this is a good thing for us! As long as this monster is a little weaker, we can work together to break through the flesh wall and rush out!"
“…”
These red-robed wizards had already made up their minds to die.
But now seeing the hope of survival right before their eyes, everyone became excited.
At this time, Sefa Rosas, the patriarch of the "Rosas Family" in Glory City, turned his eyes and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
He said to everyone, "We have slaughtered the barbarian tribe this time and have made a mortal enemy. We must not keep that old barbarian alive, otherwise he will become a big problem in the future!"
Everyone had seen Mafa's ferocity, so when they heard this, their eyes were all startled.
At this time, someone else echoed, "That's right! Since that old barbarian can join forces with Bazel and the mysterious legendary master, I think the three of them have a close relationship. If we don't get rid of them today, they will be a big threat to our Glory City in the future. Moreover, now that their fighting spirit has been almost consumed... Don't you think that these are three 'Divine Power Crystals' that are delivered to our door?"
If it were any other treasure, perhaps it would not be able to stop the two legends from making enemies with the strong men of the same level.
After all, those who can become legends have more or less some means of preserving their lives.
If we don't kill him this time, he will become a big problem in the future.
But when they heard the words “crystallization of divine power”, the two legends were obviously tempted.
Right now... this is a rare opportunity.
[Black Witch] Dia laughed strangely, with greed in her eyes: "Hehe... three 'Divine Power Crystals', it's worth a try."
[Frost Moon Swordsman] Carlo also said decisively: "Okay!"
The two legends agreed to join the battle, and the two sides hit it off.
"Wait a little longer, until this monster is weak enough, then we'll take action!"
"Mage Corps, prepare the confinement spell!"
"yes!"
