Chapter 272: Sound of Resonance
Chi Yao waved his hand to restore the rock wall that was squeezing the troll mole to its original position, and spoke.
"I don't know much about underground creatures. Looking at Johns's performance and what you said just now, normal troll moles can't breathe fire?"
Seeing that Chi Yao had skipped his ability, Tonino Harvey did not continue to investigate, and pointed at Johns and said.
"I have only learned about the underground creatures in the No. 6 mine in the information. The real situation of the troll mole is the first time I have seen it today."
"You have to ask Johns about this. As the strongest team, they must be very familiar with the troll mole."
And Johns on the side also came back from the shock. Hearing the two talking about him, and just seeing that Chi Yao's casual attack was so terrifying, Johns immediately bowed his head respectfully and answered.
"Your Highness, our team has been to the mine countless times, and the troll mole is a common underground creature. Under normal circumstances, our team can easily kill it with cooperation."
"But the troll mole we met today seems to be unusual. Not only is it much more powerful, but it can also spray flames."
"In my fifteen years of career, I have never encountered a troll mole that can spray flames!"
Listening to Johns' explanation, Chi Yao's guess gradually improved.
'It seems that my previous guess was correct. Normal troll moles do not have flame abilities. This troll mole catalyzed by the round sun stone is most likely caused by the appearance of the fire red ant. '
Chi Yao turned his head to look at Babbitt, the doctor in the team, and asked.
"Babbitt, do you know the physiological structure of the troll mole?"
After the battle just now, Babbitt's face was less worried. He touched his head and said hesitantly.
"I am better at human structure, and I only have a superficial understanding of the physiological structure of underground creatures."
"No, but I can try to dissect it on the spot."
While speaking, Babbitt's hands were crossed in front of him, looking a little cramped. He couldn't help but sneak a few glances at Chi Yao from time to time, as if he was shocked by the strength Chi Yao had just displayed.
Chi Yao nodded, walked to the side of the troll mole, stretched out his hand to control the rock to lift the body of the troll mole, and signaled Babbitt to start.
"Then I'll trouble you, let's start."
Babbitt straightened his expression, walked to the front of the troll mole, took out a special knife from his backpack and started to operate.
As Babbitt's hand and knife fell, the skin of the troll mole was quickly cut and peeled off, revealing the bloody muscle tissue.
After peeling the skin, everyone present found the specialness of the troll mole body in front of them. The familiar warm light was faintly shining on the head bones of the body.
This is the light of the round sun stone! The round sun stone merged with the head bones of the troll mole!
With a clear goal, Babbitt sped up his movements and quickly peeled off the muscles on the mouse's head, revealing the mutated bones.
It was a round sun stone about the size of a palm, pierced across the upper jaw of the troll mole. It was clear that several veins were scattered from the round sun stone, which seemed to be in the process of fusion and had not yet been completely fused.
Tonino Harvey looked at the mutated corpse of the troll mole and couldn't help saying.
"Is this a mutation caused by the round sun stone? But why? It shouldn't be, these underground creatures have lived in the mine for so long, and there has never been any news of such a mutation!"
Chi Yao's face was slightly gloomy, he crossed his arms and said his guess.
"Harvey, it's not that there are none. Have you forgotten that two months ago, in the No. 6 mine, there appeared fire ants that could use the round sun stone to evolve themselves."
"And just after the fire ants appeared, we encountered this giant mole rat that was influenced by the round sun stone and evolved the ability to breathe fire."
"The fire ants are inseparable from the occurrence of this mutation."
Listening to Chi Yao's statement, Tonino Harvey's expression became solemn, and his tone became heavier.
"Second brother, do you mean that the mutation of this giant mole rat is not an isolated case?"
"And this mutation is caused by the fire ants?!"
Chi Yao raised his hand to let the rock wall on the left surge, directly burying the body of the giant mole rat in it.
"This is speculation. After all, you said before that the fire ants appeared two months ago, and before that you had never seen this kind of mutated underground creatures."
"Moreover, the process of mutation also takes time. Two months is too short according to common sense, but the facts just now have shown that the mutation situation cannot be delayed."
"In these two months, we still don't know how many underground creatures have been affected by this mutation!"
"So next, we need to hurry up. The sooner we reach the area of the fire ants, the better it will be for us to understand the intelligence."
Tonino Harvey felt that Chi Yao's speculation made sense, and immediately ordered the Johns team to continue moving forward.
"Keep going, Easley, don't worry about safety issues anymore, just choose the shortest route."
Easley wanted to persuade Chi Yao and Tonino Harvey, and his tone was very helpless.
"Your Highnesses, if we choose the shortest route, we will encounter several underground creatures' activity areas on the way, and it is very likely that we will conflict with these underground creatures."
"If there are too many battles on the path and a lot of energy is consumed, it will be quite disadvantageous for us to go to the area of fire ants."
Tonino Harvey narrowed his eyes slightly, and his tone could not be refused.
"Easley, your task is to lead the way, and do your job with peace of mind! As for the battles on the road, leave it to me and Huiyao to solve!"
Seeing that Tonino Harvey's tone was quite firm and he issued an ultimatum, Isley stopped arguing, walked to the front, and began to lead the way for everyone.
Under Tonino Harvey's requirement to move forward at a high speed, everyone's forward speed was much faster, but inevitably, they also encountered a lot of various underground creatures.
It was Chi Yao's plan to let Tonino Harvey face the underground creatures, just to see his true strength, so Chi Yao still concealed his detection ability and let his team directly hit it.
Like mud salamanders, rock armor earthworms, rock lizards, etc., when facing these underground creatures, Tonino Harvey took action.
Tonino Harvey's ability is similar to creating overclocked sound waves, which can form resonance in the body of underground creatures, directly destroying the relatively fragile internal organs of the opponent's body and causing internal injuries.
In front of Tonino Harvey, the underground creatures with solid and thick shells are as fragile as crisp skin even if they have rock armor.
Contrary to Chi Yao's expectations, Tonino Harvey's ability is very proficient, and it seems to be his true strength.
Chi Yao understands that his previous guess may have entered a misunderstanding.
'It seems that my previous guess was still a misjudgment, and that's right. As the first heir to the kingdom, even if he is not as powerful as Tonino Carlo, Tonino Harvey must at least have some strength. '
'The reason for the previous misjudgment should be because Carlo and Harvey's abilities are both sound-related, but when I first came into contact with them, I couldn't tell the difference. ’
‘Now it seems that Carlo and Harvey’s abilities are roughly in the same category of sound, but in fact they are quite different and belong to different branches. ’
Watching Tonino Harvey shatter a rock lizard that was blocking his way, Chi Yao had already thought of a way to deal with it.
‘However, since it is a sound system, it is easy to deal with. Vacuum is still the best way to deal with it. ’
