Mage Joan

Chapter 1068: Underground wormhole

This nest, built with blood moss and mucus, has a perfect geometric shape and a solid shell, making Joan think of a swallow that collects branches to build a nest.

From this point of view, the reason why the owner of the cave collects a large amount of blood moss is not necessarily all eaten into the belly, and a large part is used as a building material to build the nest.

However, it is clear that a safe burrow has been excavated, so why build another nest in the cave?

With doubt, the remote control blood mosquito landed on the edge of the nest, peeping inwards, and found that the bottom of the nest was covered with a soft layer of blood moss, like a velvet blanket, with more than ten feet long eggs scattered on it, hard gray The shell is covered with dark red markings.

"Worm?"

Joan muttered to himself.

After a little thought, he turned into a bee-like form and fluttered his wings into the cave.

"Brother Joan, wait for me!"

Belling jumped down quickly, and under the protection of "Feather Fall", landed lightly and safely.

Joan and other dwarf mages followed him and walked towards the location of the blood mosquito.

Both have dark vision, so there is no need to cast spells, and soon they come to the bottom of the cave, in front of the hemispherical nest.

Belling looked up at the edge of the nest, which was even higher than himself, and his eyes sparkled with curiosity.

Joan vibrated the bee wing, dragged Bellin into the nest, landed on a flat bottom, and felt like he was in the bath.

Bellin ran over, picked up an egg with both hands, looked up and down, and then turned his head to ask Joan: "Boy, we should hatch these eggs to see what they look like."

Joan had the same plan, but after all, it was not a pleasant experience whether it was being treated as a "mom" by a newly hatched giant insect or as an attack target.

For safety reasons, let's talk about this matter first.

There are a total of 17 unknown eggs in the nest, and only one Belling is enough to satisfy curiosity. The remaining 16 eggs are all included in Joan's backpack.

There was nothing else in the cave worthy of study, and Joan dragged Belling out.

Joan introduced the situation in the cave to other companions, and then the five went on the road.

Along the way the mysterious giant worm came out, about an hour forward, the originally straight and straight road suddenly became messy, and the road was scattered with broken blood moss and liquid traces similar to blood stains.

Qiao An and others stopped at the same time, exchanged their eyes, held their weapons and strengthened their vigilance.

Take your steps lightly and explore forward cautiously. The messy traces you see along the way are becoming more and more obvious. It seems that someone has fought fiercely here.

Turning over the hilly ground covered with blood moss, Bellin walked at the forefront and stunned, then turned back and shouted excitedly.

"Look at everyone! Found something new!"

Joan hurried up the **** and looked in the direction pointed out by Belling, vaguely seeing a huge red caterpillar lying prone in a rock pile with blood moss and froze.

As soon as Joan thought about it, he controlled the blood mosquito to pass by, and flew around the giant caterpillar that was more than ten feet long, confirming that the monster had already died of gas, and then walked boldly to check the corpse of the giant insect.

Obviously, this big worm covered with red hair is the owner of the previously discovered cave, and somehow died here.

Joan didn't know the scientific name of the big bug, and there was no relevant record in the "Vares Monster Book". For convenience, he was named "Blood Moss" for the time being according to its habitat.

Ten scars can be clearly seen on the corpse of blood moss.

Judging from the outline of the scar, it looked like a trace of whipping, but there was a special sign that caught Joan's attention.

The flesh and blood around these whip marks clearly showed signs of decay, and the most serious parts had even turned into pus blood, and the viscera of giant insects could be seen faintly.

Compared with the parts of the giant worm that have not been whipped, it is not difficult to find that the degree of decay near the whip marks is obviously very abnormal. It is more like being sprinkled with highly corrosive acid than it is natural decay.

This giant insect seemed to be beaten to death by a long whip attached to a strong acid by the enemy.

What kind of creature kills giant insects?

The scene of the giant worm's dead body is probably also the site of the dying fight. The only suspicious trace is that there are many broken purple tubers scattered.

Joan remotely controlled the "Mage's Hand", grabbed a piece of purple mucus, and after careful observation, suspected that it was the fruiting body of some kind of mushroom.

If this is the wreckage left by the killers who killed the giant worms, then they may not have benefited themselves, and eventually they will die together with the giant worms.

Based on these incomplete pieces, Joan couldn't piece together his complete image, and he didn't even know how many people were involved in the fight.

Tossing away the purple fragments helplessly, Joan continued to search, trying to find the whip-like weapon that killed the blood worm.

At this moment, a murky movement suddenly came among the tall mushrooms beside him, which immediately aroused his vigilance.

Joan turned into a bee-man form for the first time, prepared to take off to avoid the attack, and then looked in the direction of abnormal movement.

From the wood-like mushrooms, a round head was found, and the grim face was almost identical to the dead giant insect found before.

The most conspicuous organ on the entire face is the centrally expanded mouth that shrinks and expands from time to time. Through the saliva, a circle of spiral teeth arranged inside the mouth of the giant insect can be seen vaguely.

Joan has no doubt that this monster gear-shaped jaw can easily bite anything close to the mouth.

Reluctantly restraining the instinctive fear, Joanne fluttered into the air and approached the "big meat bug" with a bad intention from above, and observed the pair of soft tentacles that were raised above his head.

Under the influence of body fluid pressure, the giant insect's tentacles flexibly flex, just like snails, it seems to be detecting odor particles in the air.

Joan also noticed that there were button-shaped round protrusions under the giant tentacles of the giant insect. At first, he thought it was a pair of monocular eyes of the giant insect. However, a little observation revealed that the top of the convex organ did not have a pupil.

From this point of view, the eyes of this giant worm living in a dark area seem to have deteriorated, relying mainly on sensitive antennae to sniff the external environment.

Just as Joan was distracted by the giant worm, the giant worm was shaking its tentacles and secretly prying into the group of uninvited guests across from it. They were both curious and a little afraid of these completely strange creatures.

The giant worm hesitated for a while, and finally moved forward cautiously, slowly crawling out of the mushroom, revealing the whole picture in front of Joan.
