  Chapter 288 Crystallized Dragon Egg (33)

   "Tenglan Giant Eel?!"

  Ian couldn't help opening his eyes wide. Even Master Goser and Isengard were very familiar with the giant beast that had chased them all the way, and recognized it at a glance.

  The Tenglan giant eel is not dead, its body is still twitching, but it has indeed lost its ability to resist. It is being dragged and pushed slowly from the river by a group of parasitic beasts of various shapes.

  The body of the giant eel is so huge that it even blocked the river channel. If it weren't for the extremely powerful species among the parasitic beasts, it might not be able to push it at all.

  As the comatose giant eel was gradually pushed down the rift valley, the mother brain-eating worm that had been quietly dormant on the nest to draw electricity also responded.

  Buzzing—the nest vibrates, and the female insect finally reveals its true form.

The shape of the brain-eating mother is similar to a huge shellfish. The prismatic crystal is its shell, and the flesh and blood inside is spindle-shaped and streamlined. It usually does not stay in the shell, but goes deep into the nest, constantly absorbing Energy and the flesh and blood offered by the parasitic beasts, then continuously lay eggs and release them into the water circulation of the ruins.

Its shell has the composition of Morion steel, which is extremely adaptable to source matter and psionic energy, and is extremely tough. When the giant worm wants to move, it slowly carries its shell on its back like a snail. It squirmed, leaving silver-blue slime all the way, causing electric arcs visible to the naked eye to be released on the jagged crystalline soil layer.

Of course, at the same level as the second energy level, the brain devouring mother insect is not big, only more than ten meters long, and this is the normal state of the second energy level monsters, such as the Tenglan giant eel and the totem main swamp crocodile Behemoths that are tens of meters long or hundreds of meters long at every turn are actually a minority. Only when they reach the fourth energy level, monsters will generally increase in size.

   And this is also the origin of the name Titan.

   "Not good, it wants to parasitize the Tenglan Giant Eel!"

The brain-eating mother approached the giant eel, which made Ian's heart tremble, and he could see the opponent's purpose at a glance—this giant eel was obviously the one that chased the shark and interrupted his battle with Patrick, and was also eaten. The brain worm strengthened the one of physique and reaction speed.

The brain-eating worms have already laid the foundation for their mother worms, and now as soon as the mother worms pass by, they can immediately control the powerful body of the giant eel... and after the mother worms devour the essence of the giant eel at the peak of the second energy level, It is hard to say whether it can enter the third energy level, but there must be a peak of the second energy level!

  Isengard and Master Gosser also noticed this, and all three of them obviously wanted to interrupt the mother worm's actions.

Ian had already taken off the alchemy cannon he was carrying on his back, and Master Goser used his recovered part of the source quality to prepare special blasting powder, and was also preparing to calibrate the cannonball, and Isengard also took out The elite alchemy shells he carried.

  These things were originally intended to be used to destroy the insect nest, but now is also the right time.

  The artillery shells specially used to kill the second-level peak Gesai masters are powerful enough, and their sneak attack and bombardment artillery, of course, needless to say the hit rate.

   Such a bombardment can theoretically injure the female worm severely.

"and many more!"

  But just when Ian was about to adjust the artillery installation, Master Goser suddenly spoke, with some bitterness: "This female insect is so cautious, it has been maintaining the electromagnetic force field, and our shells may not be able to blast past!"

  Ian looked up and was shocked.

  That female worm is more than cautious, she is simply a master of life! It originally wriggled like a snail, erecting its own solid crystalline shell all the time, which was already quite difficult to deal with.

Who would have thought that while walking, it also created a light blue arc barrier visible to the naked eye around its body by resonating with the crystal clusters around its crystal lair, and one after another bright magneto-optical light fell down, protecting it tightly. Reality.

  Alchemy projectiles can break through the wind-attributed essence, and are also targeted at thunder, but they will definitely be weakened by this electromagnetic barrier, or even deflected. In this way, it is hard to say whether they can hit the female insect.

   There is only one chance to sneak attack. Once you play it, you have to face this terrifying parasitic mother worm and many parasitic beasts.

Even if Ian uses the vision vision, he can't find a chance for a while—the female worm has no weakness, if I have to say, the flesh and blood exposed when it squirms, but the timing is very difficult to find, even if it hits, it is difficult to be fatal. .

   "As expected, it is a mother worm that has integrated the wisdom of the Great Elder and the other five elders...Although there are only fragments left, this level of caution is absolutely impossible for ordinary beasts and insects."

  Ian even suspected that this female worm had already written fear of death and eternal life at the bottom of the psionic network, otherwise, it would not be able to explain the other party's inexplicable caution.

   "We can only wait for the other party to parasitize and see if there are any flaws."

  Ian waited patiently for the opportunity. Anyway, they had no choice but to wait.

  However, while waiting, he noticed that there were a few more parasitic beasts transporting some strange things by the river channel where the giant eel was transported.

   "Ethan, lend me a telescope."

  Hearing Ian's request, Yisen naturally sent it out. The young man adjusted the focus and observed the details of the distant river.

  The result surprised him again.

"Egg?"

  He whispered to himself, with confusion, and then his voice suddenly rose: "Dragon egg!"

  【Crystal Dragon Egg (Relic Species)】

  【First Energy Level Egg Normal Edible】

  【The egg of the crystallized dragon. The crystal dragon is a kind of dragon that is easily affected by the environment. It will absorb the source quality of the surrounding environment at the egg stage to determine the future development direction. The crystallized dragon egg is extremely strong, and can even automatically change color and camouflage like a squid]

  【But there are still many predators greedy for dragon eggs, because the adaptability of crystal dragons to various environments is the ability that all creatures desire】

  【It is recommended to eat it before the egg develops into an embryo, which can effectively increase the adaptability of the source quality of all attributes】

  【Containing source quality: 150.9125 base units】

  【…】

   Now I am completely sure.

   "This group of parasitic beasts stole the egg of the crystallized dragon!"

Now, Ian knows why the Zhanhai Crystal Dragon made such an angry dragon chant around the ice abyss... Nonsense, his eggs were stolen, isn't this the most shameful shame and the most angry anger of all dragons in the world? thing?

  Then next...

   "Two, wait!"

  Holding the binoculars in one hand, Ian raised the other hand, signaling Master Goser and Isengard to stop reloading: "I think our chance is coming!"

  Ian returned the telescope, and then, Master Gosser and Isengard also saw the details in the distance with the help of the telescope. The old man was stunned, so he also smiled: "Indeed, wait."
