Chapter 717 Ground Monster

An irregular rock shook, suddenly fell inward, rolled down the ramp into the darkness, making several bursts of cracks. A faint golden light appeared after the pushed down rock, and came in. He stepped into the air, and the whole person suddenly fell down. He did not panic and stimulated the new ability of the empty field. An invisible force field wrapped his whole body and stopped under the action of the anti-gravity field, and zero suspended in the air.

Just now, he had a good time looking outside and finally found this gap. This is already in the belly of the mountain, but the wind blows from below. It seems that the belly of the mountain still goes straight to the ground. Entering the space in the belly of the mountain, I obviously feel that the air is much wetter than the outside, and the temperature is much higher than thousands. After a while, you can see blue glowing moss growing on the rocks in the mountain belly. These fungi make the mountain belly look a little brighter. Even if the faint blue light emitted by them is not enough to light up the whole mountain belly, Zero can still have a panoramic view of the whole mountain belly with the help of low light vision.

He is now located on a slope, which penetrates into the depths of the mountain, and the end is hidden in the darkness. You can't see what the depths are like. I don't know whether this slope is natural or man-made, but there is a way to go, which is better than being trapped in place. Fall back to the ramp and stride down the slope. The underground of this eternal mountain is a huge underground space. The towering stalagmites are as thick as pillars supporting the sky, densely connecting the underground and the mountains above. The stone pillars are full of glowing moss, so from afar, these stone pillars are like upside-down star waterfalls, and the blue light is faint, which looks extremely magnificent.

The height of this slope is nearly 100 meters. After walking for more than half an hour, zero came to the ground. There is a moss lichen under the ground, with strange rocks, and several rivers winding across the ground. At the end is a highland, which arches from the ground like a hill. After the hill, there is the rock wall, but there is a dark hole in the mountain wall, which seems to lead to other places.

As soon as Ling wanted to explore the mouth of the cave, he heard a strange sound in other parts of the ground. He quickly shrank behind a huge stone, looked out, and saw a mutasized mouse the size of a puppy emerge from the darkness. These giant fools seem to be a little different from the common violent rats in the central continent. Because they live underground for a long time, their eyes are basically degraded and their bodies are covered with hard hair like hedgehogs.

These underground rats are eating the moss on the ground and drawing water by several rivers. However, Zero noticed that not all the giant rats were eating or drawing water, and one of them scattered and wandered around. He neither ate moss nor drank water, warning something like a guard.

Do they have their natural enemies here? As soon as Ling came up with this idea, there was a "rustling" crawling sound from the other side of the highlands. When they heard these sounds, the giant rats in charge of vigilance opened their mouths and made a shrill roar. As soon as they warned, a row of strange insects climbed up from the high ground. These insects have small heads and large bodies, with mantis-like heads, and four or five compound eyes are distributed on their small heads. Each compound eye flashes a different light, and the body is an oval abdominal cavity like a spider, with rows of insect joints full of hard hairs on both sides.

These strange insects are covered with black shells, and the surface of the shells is still swimming with purple lines. Under the blue light of the glowing moss, the shells flow through a beam of metal-like light from time to time. Obviously, these hard shells are of good quality and comparable to metal.

The strange insects surged down from the other side of the highlands like a black tide. Although they only have more than a dozen, and the number of giant rats is more than ten times theirs, giant rats are very afraid of this strange insect. They screamed and fled, but the strange insects dispersed, and four or five of them swept at high speed, and sometimes even bounced up, spewing out a stream of air from both sides of their abdominal cavity, pushing them to reach their destination faster.

Zero is awe-inspiring. These strange insects are obviously born hunters. They have a high IQ and know how to hunt rats. Judging from the situation under the ground, it is obviously wrong to think that Rome thinks that there are no dangerous mutaphs in the western continent. The strange insects seen by zero will become a terrible force once they form a quantitative advantage on the ground.

Looking at the hunting in the distance, several strange insects swam around and drove the rats together. The rats shrank into a circle, and the periphery was guarded by the strongest giant rat. They roared threateningly at the strange insects, but the strange insects were obviously unmoved, and their eyes kept flashing with different colors of light. Zero noticed that these lights are regular, which is obviously a way of communication between strange insects.

They are not in a hurry to attack, but continue to shrink their encirclement, thus forming a huge pressure, constantly hitting the rats. The rats began to hold back, and finally a particularly strong giant rat rushed out. The giant mouse sprinted very fast at a short distance, and almost jumped on a strange insect in the blink of an eye. Then he opened his huge mouth full of sharp teeth and nibbled at the worm, but it was like biting a piece of fine iron, bursting out between the sharp teeth and the shell, making a sharp friction sound.

The attacked monster worm immediately shook its body and immediately threw away the giant mouse away. When the giant mouse was in mid-air, the abdomen behind the monster worm suddenly opened, and a dark shadow popped out from it in an instant.

The giant mouse immediately let out a sad whine, and Zero saw it. It was a tentacle-like thing. However, the kinetic energy when it pops up instantly is comparable to that of a bullet, making the front end of the tentacle easily pass through the body of the giant rat. Exposed to the air, the tentacles actually cracked a cross at the front end and knocked out a mouth full of broken teeth, which was extremely disgusting.

made a "hist" cry from the mouth, rolled back the tentacles, and returned to the abdominal cavity with the giant mouse that was still struggling desperately. The abdominal cavity immediately closed, followed by a sound of chewing. The cry of the giant rat quickly disappeared, as if it had been eaten by a strange insect.

Zero is the first time to see a mutatic creature that brings its prey into the abdominal cavity and eats it. At present, this strange insect has completely subverted the cognition of terrestrial creatures, which is somewhat similar to some marine organisms.

Seeing their companions being eaten, the giant rats launched a crazy attack, but their attack was futile. The abdomen of the strange insects cracked one by one, and more than a dozen terrible tentacles flew out of it. The insects surrounded the mouse group and raised their tentacles to wave around the mouse group. From time to time, giant rats let their tentacles hit, and there was a sound of broken flesh and bones. When they fell to the ground, they were often unable to move, so they easily rolled up the tentacles of the insects and sent them to their abdomen.

The abdomen of the strange insect did not close at all, so it opened and chewed the giant mouse that fell into it. Suddenly, I saw a bloody fog spewing on the abdominal cavity. From time to time, giant rats struggled to climb out of the abdominal cavity that was no different from hell, but were pulled back by strange insects with tentacles without exception.

The killing of insects is simple and efficient. On the other hand, on the other side of giant rats, although there are also fierce people biting the heads of strange insects, it does not prevent strange insects from hunting their other companions. Strangely, there must be a head among the weaknesses of organisms, and the head of the monster is obviously not harder than its body. As soon as it was bitten by the giant rat, it immediately cracked, and the blood flowed. But even if the giant rat gnawed off one of their compound eyes and even ripped off the small half of its head, the bugs were still unmoved and continued to hunt other giant rats.

The battle lasted only about half an hour, and most of the giant rats fell into the belly of the monster. In the end, the strange insects should be full and no longer form a circle. They will disperse. The remaining giant rats immediately fled and left clean in a moment. Those strange insects lay directly on the ground when they were full, as if they were resting. But then, they did something unexpected.

The worms rolled their bodies hard and stopped their round bodies with their backs to the genius. But at this time, their row of insect joints mutated. The front limbs that were facing the sky suddenly turned down, and it seemed that their joints could move at will. After the current limbs landed, they lifted up and propped up the strange insects and turned around. Only then did Zero see that there was another row of compound eyes around the oval abdomen of these strange insects!

In addition to the compound eye, the front end of the abdomen cracked a dotted line, followed by some indigestible bones spit out from the mouth like a large mouth device. After retracting the stone, he replayed the scene of the insect and rat war just now, and increasingly felt that the seemingly huge belly was the real head of these monsters, and the head attacked by the giant rats was actually a camouflage organ to attract the enemy's attention and play a confusing role.

In short, it's just a trap. If you only attack the little head of the monster like a giant mouse, you can't really kill them at all. So the strange insects ignore the giant rats that bite their heads, but the giant rats that jump on them will be thrown down, because the giant rats attack are their real weaknesses.

High intelligence, high-speed ejectable tentacles and trap-like organs have made this strange insect easy enough to squeeze into the first-class hunters. It can be imagined that when faced with such strange insects, no matter who will habitually attack their heads, they will fall into the trap of their killing.

When you figure out the characteristics of strange insects, you don't know how many lives you have to pay.

At this time, the well-fed strange insects began to return to the highlands. A strange insect walking at the end suddenly stopped. It turned around and looked at the huge huge stone full of compound eyes. Its eyes became a little doubtful, so it left its companion and went alone in the direction of zero. Hearing the sound of the insect's claws scraping the ground coming towards him, Ling knew that something was probably detected by the strange insects.

In the distance, other strange insects have jumped down the high ground and shrank towards the dark hole, as if it were their nest. At this time, a large shadow suddenly appeared on Zero's head. Zero looked up and could see the strange insects facing him. On his huge head, Zero could even see the black hard hairs emerging from the cracks in the shell!
