Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 283: Brain-eating insect mother (3/3, word w update!)
The light blue river of parasites exudes a little bit of fluorescence, which is a phenomenon of activated biomass luminescence.
Shark and Andor did not walk together, not because they are afraid of brain-eating worms. A well-prepared first-level monster can easily excrete it from the body. It is possible to be parasitized.
Yin sent Shasha and Andor to take a safer long-distance route, which is also to prepare for the subsequent operations. There is more than one river leading to the water-cooling interaction area. If there is a mistake in the next operation and you need to escape, It is safer to have an underground river that passes through the interaction zone from above than the river of parasites.
As for the pirate captain, Yin En is not worried that the other party will run away, let alone missing a leg, the boy is sure that the other party does not know the way at all, and he can only wait for them to come out of the ruins.
Moreover, even if he escaped by luck, he would have to face multiple pursuits, so he might as well obey the orders obediently, so that he could still serve as a tainted witness for the Ellen family.
Except for these two, the human beings who can walk along the shore, Yin En, Isengard and Master Gosser, they still have to go through the nearest straight passage.
This time, the three of them were really well prepared.
In order to prepare for Patrick's possible surprise attack, Master Gosser prepared several bottles of anti-thunder potion with the materials he picked up along the way on the spot, and everyone always kept two bottles in their hands.
Besides, there are physique enhancement and strength enhancement potions. Every bottle is a high-quality product. Yin En can't help but understand the gap between himself and a real alchemist.
——The other party can even prepare elite potions under such circumstances. It seems that I can no longer use "no tools" as an excuse in the future.
Then he used the silver chip to record all the skills of Master Gosai.
——It's all good, it's all mine!
With the alchemy skills shown by Master Gesai along the way, Yin En felt that it would be very easy for him to become an official alchemist when he returned to Port Harrison!
"This river should be recycled water from the water-cooling interface, which flows through the backyard of the ruins after being 'purified', and then sent back after natural cooling."
Walking along the bank, looking at the densely packed miniature insect egg cases in the river, Yin En said with emotion: "But who knows, there is a high probability that the interaction port will be blocked by insect nests, and the purification facilities have also become The decaying facilities that continuously discharge insect eggs... It has been a thousand years, and things have changed too much."
The river water is warm and releases water vapor, which is indeed the characteristic of cooling water. Yin En didn't think of it at first, mainly because there are too many geothermal sources, and it is difficult to connect them.
"There are artillery sounds ahead."
Master Gesai raised his head, his strength has not yet fully recovered, but the high perception of the Floating Cloud Shaper has begun to play a role.
The surging wind in the river brought him news, which made the old man frown: "Guns, artillery, poisonous rot, and the shock of giants-the battle is very fierce!"
"That's just right."
Yin En accelerated instead.
Walk along the river of parasites for a while, and then turn into another big river. The rancid smell gushes out from the river, which makes people feel dizzy.
The river of parasites diverges from this big river, and after the rancid smell is reduced, it becomes a unique sweet and greasy fragrance.
Observing carefully, you can see that there are many corpses of monsters and wild beasts in the river, which have become nests of brain-eating insects, and are constantly twitching, and these monsters have obvious traces of firearms.
Afterwards, Yin En and the others saw piles of decaying corpses in the upper reaches of the river, with shapeless slug-like creatures climbing in and out of them, and huge carapace giant insects floating in the water. After they noticed Yin En and his party, they didn't approach them, but curled up in their nests.
"Be careful."
But Yin En issued a warning, he raised his sword and slashed aside, and immediately heard the clang of metal colliding and the sound of bones breaking.
It was a giant praying mantis, with a brass-colored body and a ferocious face. The big sickle in front of its hands was extremely sharp, and there were sawtooth on the blade.
It was lurking in the shadows just now in an attempt to make a surprise attack, and it was its arrival that made the other monsters curl up.
The right sickle of the brass giant mantis had been severed by Yin En's sword, but it didn't back down, but fluttered its wings and rushed forward again, slashing wildly with both arms.
It was the first time Yin En saw this kind of giant zerg that was said to be unique to Canaan Moore in Nanling. He observed that this zerg already had the strength of the first level, and the twin blades Potion material level, unfortunately it is very difficult to refine into potion, at most it can be polished into sublimation weapon.
He didn't care, gathered his strength a little, and smashed out with a sword, as if a boulder had fallen from the sky, and the brass mantis was smashed to pieces with a bang.
After the mantis died, a long black worm crawled out of the mantis' body and wanted to dive into the water. Isengard stretched out his hand, and a mass of black-red erosion burned it into curls, and then dissolved into a ball biomass.
"Iron nematode? It's also a brain-eating worm? How many forms of this parasite exist."
Yin En was a little surprised, because the silver chip showed a different species of brain-eating worm—this kind of parasite can change its shape according to different parasitic objects.
This kind of memory attached to the brain used by the Sequoia people in the past has now been transformed into an extremely ferocious and weird psionic Zerg under the transformation of the Great Elder, and it is ever-changing and difficult to resist.
The sound of the firefight in front became more intense, and the sound of the noisy waterfall and the shock of the giant's rapid movement can also be heard below.
Everyone speeds up and walks forward.
The flow speed of the big river is not fast, but it has several tributaries flowing to a rift valley on the side, which falls into a waterfall, and the sound of the battle is coming from the rift valley.
When they came to the side of the rift valley and looked down from a high position, Yin En and others saw that at the bottom of the narrow rift valley, there was a big battle unfolding.
The terrifying giant golden centipede charged, and the cliff wall rumbled, making the Feiyan soldiers who were forming a defensive formation with firepower change their faces. They were using three portable alchemy cannons to fire alternately to suppress the giant golden centipede's advance Momentum - but the effect is not great, the weight and armor of the giant golden centipede are too thick, it is really difficult to stop.
What really prevented the giant golden centipede from advancing was the joint attack of the two sublimators.
A Crimson Citizen sublimator is holding a supercharged long sword that is constantly rotating, and is constantly attacking the blade-foot joints of the giant golden centipede, hindering the opponent's progress. Now several blades have been knocked off foot.
However, the number of blades and feet is a tragic figure for all attackers. As long as the giant golden centipede is targeted a little, the sublimation of the red people will be in danger.
And another nun of the Spiritual Equipment Church is controlling a huge alchemy machine gun, firing a barrage of primordial bullets like a flame storm.
The ultra-high heat flow of the bomb always locks on the one eye on the top of the giant golden centipede's head, making this giant steel hand keep avoiding it.
"It's actually a maintenance machine for dredging?"
Seeing this giant golden centipede, both Master Gesai and Isengard looked dignified, but Yin En looked surprised: "Looking at the drill structure of the arm, it should be sent here to dredge the cooling interface. The passage, right? The back is the cockpit... Sure enough, the pilot has been parasitized by brain-eating worms."
The lethal blade feet and sharp scales of the giant golden centipede, as well as the destructive drill bit, are essentially tools used to dredge mountain collapses and large pipeline blockages. It can turn itself into a drill bit or even For the micro-shield machine, a road is opened in various sediments or biomass wastes, just like earthworms to dredge various difficult-to-solve causes of blockage.
But obviously, this former maintenance tool has been turned into a war machine today, and facing this giant centipede that can penetrate the mountain, even if the opponent does not have any other armed forces, the soldiers of Feiyandi will not be able to deal with it. extremely difficult.
"Who?!"
Fighting against the giant golden centipede with all his strength, the captain suddenly felt something. He raised his head and looked over the rift valley. The thermal vision allowed him to clearly see Yin En's face.
"It's you?! The brat of the Setar Empire, the guy who killed my deputy!"
All of a sudden, old and new grudges welled up in his heart, and he gritted his teeth and said, "How dare you follow us here?! Damn it, I should have killed you with all my strength in the first place!"
Don't look at the giant golden centipede in front of you, which has the strength of the second energy level, but it has no other weapons, but it is strong enough and strong enough. Facing the well-prepared Feiyan special team, although it is an extremely difficult enemy , but not unsolvable.
As for Yin En and the others, they are not only people from the enemy country, but also their competitors in this exploration—under the anxiety and tension, he has already begun to speak a little bit unscrupulously.
Of course Yin En was very concerned about this kind of threat. He directly took out the water gun and shot at the captain and the rear formation from a distance.
Buzz!
The high-pressure water flows condescendingly through the atmosphere. It didn't go towards the captain, but passed through a Feiyan soldier who was manipulating the alchemy cannon behind him, causing him to let out a tragic wail.
The erosive water first penetrated his armor, and then turned into a powerful water bludgeoning inside the armor, crushing his bones, and the bright red blood and internal organs came out of the soldier's mouth Squirting out, his chest and abdomen were completely crushed.
Yin En did not speak, and shot another blow. This time it hit the inside of a alchemy cannon. Isengard's corrosive light-etching dragon blood corroded a part of the cannon muzzle, although not much, But it can also reduce the efficiency and accuracy of this artillery.
After that, he stopped and didn't say a word.
At this moment, Yin En has already sensed that many parasitic beasts are approaching this place in the distance. The giant golden centipede should be the gatekeeper of the insect nest, and the guardian of the rift that must pass through the cooling interface. Once it drags the intruder, the other guardian parasites in the nest will be dispatched to come here to besiege the enemy.
"Your firepower is about the same now, hold back this maintenance machine and the subsequent parasites."
With a slight nod, Yin En led Isengard and Master Gosse, and continued to move forward under the eyes of the captain who was about to breathe fire.
When they were advancing, there was the sound of galloping beasts coming down from the rift valley, and the parasitic beasts roaring with hunger and ferocity were galloping towards their goal. The sum of the Warcraft parasites seen around the Golden Mushroom Cave.
"Good guy, this amount is hard to cut."
Master Gesai sighed with emotion, and his tone was obviously gloating - when he was young, it happened to be the time when the Setar Empire and the Flying Flame Kingdoms were fighting a silent war for fourteen years. Say you have a good impression, at least it's not a good person to look at.
It's not their trouble anyway, they move on.
In a short time, the end of the rift.
A gorgeous light is flashing.
This is an extremely empty underground hollow area, where a fluorescent blue river is surging, and the land along both sides of the river has already crystallized, and clusters of bright crystals are releasing faint fluorescence that flickers on and off.
On both sides of the rift valley, rivers and rivers converge here, turning into waterfalls and splashing their water mist.
Intense radiation pervaded the place, and even the hollow stone walls were covered with various colorful crystal clusters, and some of the crystal clusters were built into a nest-like shape, densely distributed along both sides of the river.
That's where the parasitic beasts that guard the hive live. They feed on the nutrient-rich water of the parasite river and bathe in the high concentration of radiation here.
The big river is extremely hot, and an extremely thick mist rises, covering this bright and brilliant area full of radiant crystals of various colors.
Raising their heads, the three of them let out a slight exclamation in unison.
Because behind the dense water mist, there is a majestic and huge nest. This metallic lustrous nest looks like a termite nest, but it is a full two hundred meters high, and it is simply a hill.
The upper and lower ends of it are hidden in the mist, and the big river gushes out from a water wheel structure in the lower part of the nest, which seems to be driving several hydroelectric generators to generate electricity, making the whole body of the nest glow blue colored lightning.
In the middle of the nest, there is a huge blue crystal prism inserted straight into the center of the nest, gathering a steady stream of power savings.
—No, not crystals.
Yin En raised his hand solemnly, activated the Ring of Silence, and led the two of them into the shadows.
—That's a worm shell.
The huge crystal trembled slightly, and the corners that looked like prisms began to loosen, exposing the soft flesh and blood at the bottom exuding dots of radiant fluorescence, on which electric arcs visible to the naked eye were flashing.
——This is the shell of the brain devouring brood mother.
