Chapter 510 The Unlucky Leading Party
Under normal circumstances, the so-called earthworms of Isobu Yamamoto do look exactly the same as those of earthworms, but the size of the so-called earthworms is not at the same level as the real earthworms. In reality, most earthworms are only a few millimeters in thickness, and those who can grow up to one centimeter in diameter are monster-level earthworm kings. However, compared with the earthworm in front of you, the mutated earthworms in reality are simply weak. We can't tell how much the body diameter of this so-called earthworm is, because these guys' soft bodies have already cracked the gap between the stone forests.
The gap is completely filled. However, because of its softness, even if it is squeezed, it can pass through the narrow cracks of the stone forest without worrying about being stuck. However, because these earthworm-like monsters are always squeezed, we don’t know what shape these guys will become if they enter the wide space. Anyway, what we can predict is that this thing can pass normally without being squeezed and deformed, and it will be transformed into a two-way six-lane mountain tunnel without any need to be expanded.
Such a big creature is actually called an earthworm. This information error is a bit outrageous, right?
"Are you mistaken? If this thing is also called an earthworm, can our giant dragon clan call him a gecko?" Hong Yan said, looking at the giant beast that was approaching in front of him.
"This thing is really an earthworm!" Yamamoto said guiltily: "It's just a little bigger."
"Such a big earthworm?" Christina asked.
Yamamoto Izumoto thought for a moment and nodded, then said, "It's really an earthworm! If you don't believe it, you can see." As he said that, he raised his hand and shot a small fireball. This kind of small fireball is an entry-level magic magic. Even Onmyoji can use it, after all, it's really just an entry-level magic. Many players will learn one as a lighter. It's not too convenient to light a torch to create a bonfire or something. Of course, the original function of this thing is not a lighter, but a real attack magic. However, most non-magistrate players usually don't have much power after learning this skill, so they can only be regarded as a lighter. If a sculptural master like Christina is used, the power of this magic will be no less than an anti-tank grenade.
The small fireball used by Yamamoto Isobu was less than ten centimeters in diameter and was amazingly small. Even if it was used as a torch, it was not bright enough. However, such a small fireball, after hitting the big earthworm, actually exploded a hole as big as a basin on the guy's body, and a lot of translucent mucus sprayed out from it.
With this attack, the big earthworm that rushed over was immediately turned around and crawled back through the gap in the stone forest next to it. Then, at a faster speed than when it came, it ran out of the long distance like lightning.
"Damn, so weak?" Looking at the earthworm that was shot directly by a small fireball, Zhenhong was surprised and almost fell off her chin.
Yamamoto Izuo explained helplessly: "In fact, it's not that it's weak, but that it's timid. Although the physical strength of this thing is indeed not very good, if they can rush to the strong fiercely, I think it can still cause great damage by relying on this size and speed alone. But unfortunately, these things are really less courageous than mice. As long as they suffer a little damage, they will immediately run towards the nest. Anyway, they are the type that is weak and explosive."
"In this way, those female demons should be glad that only female demons can infect the curse and become such irrational monsters." Christina suddenly said this without thinking.
Radamantis asked in confusion: "How could you have such an idea?"
Christina explained: "It's very simple! Since this earthworm is the main food of the female demon, and the combat power of this thing is so weak, it means that the difficulty of the female demon obtaining food is almost zero. The other party happens to be in a state of biological instinct. That is to say, there is no reason. Since there is no reason, it will definitely prey and reproduce according to instinct. However, because the predation conditions are too good, reproduction will definitely become uncontrollable. The final result will inevitably be a population crisis, and then the ecosystem collapses, and in the end all the demons will eat up all the creatures here.
All of them starve to death. However, fortunately, the female demons here are not an independent population. They are a pathological state that normal female demons become infected. Therefore, there are no males in them, that is, they cannot reproduce. Even if the hunting is very difficult, the number will not increase, and the female demons themselves do not have the habit of hoarding food, so there will be no adverse consequences. If there is even a male demon in this place, then I guess we should not expect to see other demons here, because they will definitely die because the population is out of control."
Several people who didn't understand it all understood Christina's explanation. It's really thanks to the lack of male demons here. Of course, even if there are, it's useless, because the desires shown by these female demons seem to be mainly concentrated on appetite, and the desire for reproduction may not really exist. After all, they are cursed and become like this, and they are not mutated creatures.
Since we have figured out that the big earthworms here are actually not harmful, we are not worried about being attacked. We chased the big earthworm we had been injured all the way, and that guy was indeed the same as Yamamoto Isoyu said. As long as he was injured, he would run wildly. However, there was a problem during this period, that is, if the injury was not very serious, they would not run home directly, but would find that there was no contact and were hurt after a period of time, and then stopped and continued to crawl around. Anyway, the intelligence level of this kind of thing was almost no, and all reactions were stress reactions.
The damage caused by the small fireball released by Yamamoto Izuru just now is indeed not a big injury to such a creature. It is just like we were wiped off a piece of skin by something. Although it hurts a little, it almost doesn't have to worry about it. It grows well in a few hours. So, the guy we followed ran and stopped for a short while. However, with us following, this guy was destined to be unlucky. As soon as he stopped, he was repaired by Yamamoto Izuru, and then the guy started running again.
After tracking this thing for more than twenty minutes, we finally found that we had reached the edge of the cave, which was the home of the big earthworms. At the same time, we also found the nests of the female demons. Not to mention, they were really not far from those earthworms, because that nest was just above the earthworms' nest.
