Generally speaking, an egg sheath of an earth cockroach can hatch ten to fifty nymphs according to different species, but this pried giant egg sheath contains hundreds of tiny semi-permeable vesicles, each of which is a single larva …
But these semi-permeable vesicles are not cockroaches and nymphs, but they are curled up into a ball … crimson carnivores!
These vesicular carnivores are still crawling slightly … They are alive!
Koran, Hound and Leighton all looked up and looked at each other. They all saw the fear and fear that was difficult to express in words.
This kind of worm is no stranger to them … Kelan clearly remembers how those people of Mitsui Consortium were swallowed up by the "tide" composed of these worms-it takes them a few seconds to chew up a person’s flesh and even bones!
"This thing how can appear here? ！” The hound said gravely.
He raise his head and glanced at that ice channel that was almost completely cover by this kind of egg sheath in front of him, and he felt a sense of shrinking. "If these egg sheaths are full of this kind of worm …"
His words didn’t go on, but Kelan and them all knew what he was trying to say-if these ootheca crimson carnivores hatched when they crossed this passage, the whole team would collapse in a flash.
I can’t help but feel itchy when I think of those insects drilling into my skin and flesh-even if I really want to face death one day, he would never choose this way to die just by thinking about it.
"That how to do? Can’t go back? " Leighton frowned and said, "Old dog and Koran, you two have more ideas to decide."
At this moment Qin Zhaoyin suddenly came from behind "so this bug … what’s the problem? You seem to be very scared. "
Curran gave her a look. Since they signed a confidentiality agreement, the truth of Leviathan incident can’t be revealed, but it’s still very simple to say this kind of insect horror.
"These insects are eaten by humans … or more than humans. They will devour organisms that can be contacted and digested in a very short time. They will move very quickly and gather together like the tide. Even flame throwers and energy shields are hard to stop these insects … if I mean, if these insect parts hatch in egg sheaths, we are far from enough to plug their teeth."
Qin Zhaoyuan’s face suddenly became paler when he heard Kelan say this, and Martin groped for himself crazily with an unnatural face.
"I … I feel itchy … should … should there be a bug crawling on me?" He said in my haste
"If there is a worm crawling on your body, even if there is only one, you should have lost several pieces of meat by now." Kelan gave him a look and sank. "Itching is because of psychology. Don’t scare yourself."
"Oh, oh, oh," Martin nodded hastily. "So, is there any way this bug can kill it?"
"I just said that flamethrowers, energy shields or other explosives can easily kill these insects, but they don’t."
"no?"
"Their number is too large … you can’t kill them all … and when the worm in front dies, it will immediately swallow the same kind of corpse and transform itself into a part … you can’t even cut the scale of the worm tide."
"Psst …" Martin grinned and gasped. "What shall we do now, senior?"
"There is no other choice to go forward or backward," said the hound, glancing back at the rear ice channel. "You have to walk on these egg sheaths. No one knows if they will suddenly hatch out … and then you can go back to the Nine Stone Chambers and be suffocated alive."
"There is a third way," Kelan said. "There was a crack in the ice just now. If the crack is chiseled, there may be a third passage on the surface."
"Koran are you crazy? Then I’d rather walk on these eggshells, "said the hound."
"I choose to be like you. I’m just saying." Kelan shrugged. "The temperature in the ice channel is very low. These egg sheaths should be sealed here by the Alpha. I think there is a high probability that they won’t hatch."
Chapter two hundred and sixty-five Lump
When I heard that I was going to pass through Martin’s face in the ice tunnel covered with egg sheaths, I suddenly showed a reluctant look … But compared with the third way in Kelan’s mouth, he could also crustily skin of head and follow others behind him.
"Be careful where you stay, and don’t trample these egg sheaths," said Kelan-at this time, the team position changed again, and Kelan returned to the pioneer position, and then gave it to the hound and Zhuoligetu.
The surface of these egg sheaths is frozen with a layer of hard ice. To be honest, the hardness is not low. Even the discovery that Leighton, a person with extraordinary tonnage, stepped on it, was a little relieved for Kelan.
If the egg sheath of other larvae is broken before maturity, the larvae are all in born to die, but this reddish carnivore is different … This kind of creature is not a "worm" in the conventional sense. When they get together, they can build a leviathan-like behemoth. This alone is enough to subvert the biological theory of human development for thousands of years
Kelan dare not treat these things as ordinary "bugs"
