Mage Joan

In the battle outside the city of O’Connell, Joan had already consumed all kinds of demon eggs stored in the blue ice box in order to fight against Drow Summoner "faceless" Pilos.

Without the monster eggs, Joan's "worm sea tactics" would greatly reduce the power. The blood mosquito eggs came at the right time, which just happened to supplement the scarce eggs.

Joan opened the magic backpack rented from Mr. Locke, took out a blood moss egg, and observed it with a "perspective hand mirror".

Through this magic hand mirror, Joan can observe the larvae that have not yet hatched, wrapped in a hard shell.

The embryo of the larvae was strangely shaped and could hardly be described. Joan looked at it for a while, feeling faintly that his spirit was contaminated, and gave up the plan to continue to observe.

His gaze moved from the egg to the side and curled up in a circle. The adult napping was suddenly having an idea.

The most common worms in nature are mostly insect larvae. For example, caterpillars are butterfly larvae and maggots are fly larvae.

As for those organisms that maintain the form of "worms" throughout their lives, they are usually link animals such as "earthworms" or parasites such as "roundworms". Others are relatively rare.

The blood moss is obviously not a parasite, and it does not look like an "arthropod", so is it an "arthropod", such as the larvae of some giant insects, or a more rare large "clawed animal" ?

The so-called "clawed animals" usually refer to worms with characteristics between these two animals, such as "velvet worms".

From the appearance point of view only, Joan cannot determine the species of blood moss, and "Advanced Endoscopy" is only a general description of this is a "worm-shaped creature", can not give an accurate biological classification.

In order to answer his doubts, Joan used his brain to design a set of experiments.

After clarifying his thoughts, he took out the "giant wand" and inspired a magical power to cast 4 "giant insects" on the blood moss that he controlled.

After the cast, a golden magic halo appeared on the surface of the giant insect, which seemed to be a sparkling wave of light in the sun.

If the blood moss is a larva of some supernatural insect, such as a huge butterfly or moth, then when he is blessed by the "giant insect", it will accelerate growth and transform into an adult form.

The experimental results did not observe this phenomenon, then blood moss is unlikely to be the larvae of other insects, after full maturity is the image of this huge caterpillar.

In order to further verify this guess, Joan blessed the "giant insect technique" on the eggs collected previously.

The golden magic halo surrounds the eggs, prompting the embryo to develop faster, and soon a pink larva breaks out of the cocoon.

The appearance of the larvae attracted the attention of the blood worm, shaking its tentacles and looking towards the larvae, as if it smelled a familiar breath.

Joan issued a spiritual command to prevent the adult from approaching the larvae, so as not to interfere with the experiment.

Under magical stimulation, the larvae grew rapidly at a rate visible to the human eye, matured within a minute, and became almost as thick as the blood moss that Joan captured.

Joan silently observed the whole process of egg hatching and larval growth next to him. During this period, no pupal emergence was observed. The larvae only continued to grow during development, just like the chicks that broke out of the shell and grew up. Birds, compared with adults, can't see any obvious difference, which obviously does not meet the characteristics of "abnormal development".

Insects, whether in nature or supernatural world, are almost all "abnormal development", including "complete metamorphosis development" and "incomplete metamorphosis development".

The former, such as silkworm babies (larvae), form cocoons and become moths (adults), while the latter, such as small grasshoppers (nymphs), shed their layers and eventually develop into large grasshoppers (adults).

In the process of maturation of blood mosquito eggs by magic, from larva to adult, Joan did not observe any signs of abnormal development.

Based on this, Joanne can draw a guess:

Blood moss is not an insect, but a huge clawed animal!

In nature, clawed animals are very rare in themselves, and like blood worms, they grow larger than giant pythons, which is even rarer.

As we all know, things are rare. The rarer the species, the higher the research value.

Realizing the academic value of his discovery, Joan couldn't help but cheer excitedly.

Audrey, Hailar, Holden and Belling, who were drinking tea by the campfire, heard his cheers and all came around curiously and asked him what he was happy about.

"I just discovered a rare "clawed animal", and it is probably the largest body of all the known species of the "clawed animal"!"

Joan is anxious to share his new discoveries with his companions, but unfortunately not everyone can feel the same with him.

Hailar and Audrey looked at each other, their faces blank, and they couldn't understand what Joan was saying.

Even if there is a "congratulations", it is unclear where the joy comes from, and it reluctantly agrees, it seems hypocritical.

"You mean blood moss?"

Belling, who is also a mage, showed great interest in Joanne's new discovery.

"Yes! Blood worms are not link animals, nor larvae of insects. They are actually close relatives of velvet worms, but they are tens of thousands larger than velvet worms!"

"Wow! This is a remarkable discovery!"

Belling applauded with a frown.

"What does Joan and Belling mean by "clawed animals"?" Hailar whispered to Audrey. "Most animals have claws. What's so strange about this?"

"Don't ask me, I don't understand, and I don't understand why Joanne is so happy, just because of a bug?"

Audrey shrugged bitterly.

"Maybe only the Master can understand this happiness."

Holden sighed with emotion.

...

After the lunch break, an expedition consisting of five people and one worm went on.

As usual, the blood mosquito drove in the front, and Joan turned into a bee to scout in the air, and the rest of the companions followed, walking along the road that the giant worm flattened.

In this way, about four or five miles out of the road, the terrain in front narrowed, and the hillsides on both sides of the road were covered with tall fungi, like dense bushes.

The blood moss walking in the front suddenly stopped, turning his head to look at the gentle **** on the left, shaking his tentacles frequently, it seemed to smell some dangerous breath, and a whistle-like whistle was emitted from his mouth.

Joan flying in the air, sensing his giant servant through a spiritual link, is breeding a strong hatred for some creature lurking on the hillside. He seems to regard the other party as a natural enemy and quickly turns back to send a warning sign to his companion.
