Chapter 280 The Most Essential Desire
The untouchable woman's eyes were fixed on the ant.
She witnessed with her own eyes that such a young worker ant conquered the entire ant colony, spurting blood and bursting into flames.
Incomparably miraculous, absolutely extraordinary.
Wherever it passed, the ants dispersed, and the poor queen was mounted on the head and beaten.
In the end, all the ants obeyed the orders of the young worker ant.
"Is it a god or a demon? No matter what it is... please save my child."
The civilian girl's hands and feet were numb, her body was seriously injured, and she could no longer move.
The little girl's condition was slightly better, but she was still weak and looked ugly.
But the two of them were hungry and helpless, and were almost on the verge of death at this moment.
If this continues, the woman may not survive the night, and once she dies, her daughter will probably die as well.
They are all sinners, and they will go to hell when they die. The world is so painful, how terrible should hell be?
The untouchable woman steeled herself, held her child in her arms, and kept trying to communicate with the ants.
But this was obviously useless. After saying a few words, I was out of breath and could only lie there and rest.
She watched silently as the magical insect ant infested the ant colonies one by one with blood.
The ant colony at first was very ordinary.
Except for the fire-breathing devil insect, the other ants were normal.
But since the demonic insects were infected with the blood, the ants were able to penetrate deep into the fire, and their crawling speed became much faster.
In the end, all the ants turned blood red, and the queen's bloated and huge belly was bright red.
The queen ant struggled hard and seemed to be in great pain.
The belly was bulging and swelling, growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, while the queen ant had lost weight and her body was shriveled.
A group of ants hurriedly carried the food out and fed it to the queen.
The queen ant kept eating, and the belly bag continued to grow. This was repeated, and I don't know how long it took. After all the food was fed, the queen ant twitched for a while and then gradually became motionless.
"Dead?"
The civilian daughter was too weak, bleeding excessively, and extremely desperate.
"You need food, right..."
"I'll feed it to you... Great Insect King, as long as you can save my daughter... just use me as food."
The folk girl noticed that when the ants fed the queen, they removed all the blood they shed.
He immediately moved his wounds towards the ant colony.
He thought that he was going to die anyway, and there was no point in praying to the gods, so he might as well give up his life to the monster.
The magical ant had previously shown a terrifying aura and saved her, so he treated her as if he had given his life back.
However, no matter how she put her flesh and blood in front of the ant colony, the ants chose to avoid it!
"Huh? Don't you want to eat?"
"Why don't you eat me?"
The peasant girl crawled hard, but wherever she passed, all the ants walked around her.
This is obviously spiritual. Can you really understand what you are saying?
"Are you unwilling to accept my sacrifice because you don't want to save my daughter?"
"I beg you...the great Insect King..."
The girl wanted to get close to the magical ant, but the ant gnawed at the rock!
Other ants seemed to have received the order, biting stones, sticks, leaves and other objects one after another.
Then, holding these things in their mouths, they crawled in line towards the immobile queen.
The girl was shocked. Can ants even eat rocks?
"No wonder...you don't need me..."
The civilian girl cried in despair, collapsed on the ground, and watched this scene twitchingly.
However, before the ants could feed them, somewhere in the queen's body suddenly exploded!
Poof! Then the secretion of mucus begins.
This mucus continues to spread, with bloody tentacles growing like small fungi, slender, crystal clear, and densely packed.
Soon, a red carpet was rolled out where the queen ant was.
The red carpet area slowly expanded and seemed to be extremely corrosive. All the stained stones, dead branches, and rotten leaves seemed to be digested and dissolved and disappeared.
Even when ants climbed up, their limbs were dissolved, but only a little, and those ants suddenly lost their fear and walked on it as if they were on flat ground, immune to the erosion of the red carpet.
Seeing this, the girl became energetic again.
He gritted his teeth and rushed forward, lying on the blood-red carpet of bacteria.
Suddenly, a pain that was more terrifying than being eaten by thousands of ants came over, it was the feeling of being digested.
The flesh and blood dissolved, and even the bones sank into the red carpet like mud.
"Is there something wrong with this guy?"
Yan Nu was shocked when he heard the news.
He had already told the ant colony not to harm the two humans, so when the woman approached, the ant colony would get out of the way.
Unexpectedly, this person jumped directly on the digestive fluid. Isn't it obvious enough that this terrible mucus can digest and absorb rocks? Deliberately die?
Yan Nu didn't know why, but he didn't want to kill the man, so he immediately ordered all the ants to move the man away.
Unfortunately, the number of ants is still too small, only a few thousand. Although they have become much stronger after absorbing the blood of adaptation, they still cannot move a person.
"What to do?"
Yan Nu was very anxious. He knew very well that this was a pure ordinary person, even weaker than most people.
These can be analyzed from the blood, and if there is any special energy, Yan Slave, who has already symbiotically produced the blood, will know it better than anyone else.
"It's going to be dissolved."
"How about... let her mutate too?"
Yan Nu has no choice. Now he has no other ability to protect this person, and he can't let go of his artistic conception. He can't just let people die like this.
Although I don’t know what will happen if humans are infused with adaptive blood, it’s a dead horse.
Immediately, he crawled in front of the woman, spraying blood and continuously feeding it into her body from the wound or mouth.
The woman suddenly screamed and wailed in pain, her body twisting and shaking.
Soon, it became dying.
It was as if all the internal organs, meridians, and even muscles and blood vessels had collapsed.
The whole body was covered in blood-red cracks and bloody flesh, which was extremely terrifying.
Of course, Yan Nu couldn't see all this, but he could tell through the smell that this person was dying.
"Sure enough, my blood cannot be tolerated by humans."
Yan Nu was like an ant on a hot pot, anxious.
His flesh and blood can adapt, but other people's can't. How can a mortal endure the former raging inside his body?
The rotten meat that is left at the end may still have the ability to adapt, be immune to all kinds of diseases, and even be full of activity. But this person must be dead.
Just when he thought this man was bound to die, suddenly the man licked the ants around him as if he was hungry and thirsty.
So much so that he stretched out his bloody hands, like withered bones, grabbed the immobile queen ant, grunted, and ate it...
"ah?"
"Why are you eating my ants?"
Yan Nu was stunned, was he so hungry and unscrupulous?
The same thing happens to ants after absorbing the blood of adaptation. They have a very strong eating instinct.
Especially the queen ant, who kept making requests for food, seemed to be going crazy with hunger... so Yan Slave asked the ant colony to feed the queen.
The queen ant has a big belly and cannot move easily, so she only needs food to open her mouth.
What's more, after the mutation, the eggs in the stomach began to grow again and continued to grow.
This caused the belly bag to be as big as a washbasin, and the queen's tiny body was suspended in the air. Her six feet did not touch the ground, and she was unable to eat.
And this kind of growth consumes a lot of energy in the body. The eggs of the queen ant continue to squeeze the nutrients of the queen ant, almost squeezing her to death.
Fortunately, the queen ant has adaptive blood.
When she was about to starve to death due to being unable to eat, the queen's glands suddenly exploded and began to secrete corrosive mucus.
It is released outside and spread on the ground for digestion and absorption.
Small red fibrous things, like blood vessels, supply it.
This is, in a mutated way, adaptation to overcoming the inability to eat.
Yan Nu recalled that a similar mutation had only appeared once... in his intestines and stomach.
In addition, all the adaptations of the Yan slave are immunity, symbiosis and the like.
If there is anything they have in common, it is that they are all related to 'eating'.
When he was almost paralyzed at Chashan Fort, he relied on his intestines to get out, ate a meal of grass, regained his vitality, and then killed the fortress's main thread.
Thinking about it again, he relies on eating to refresh his energy, and the only thing that can destroy symbiotic organisms is his intestines and stomach.
These are all his core abilities. Could it be that they are not present at birth, but are mutated with the intestines and stomach?
"I see. In fact, my adaptation has four functions at the beginning...resistance, symbiosis, self and 'eating'."
"Other abilities are derived from these four."
"All immune characteristics are mutated based on the 'resistance' function... All foreign energy substances obtained are mutated based on the 'symbiosis' function... All sub-personalities and additional true bodies rely on the original self derived from its absolute existence.”
"Refreshing energy and digesting everything all mutate based on 'eating'."
Yan Nu thought about it carefully and found that these four lines were his most core things, which gave him his current abilities. They were the four most essential manifestations of his adaptability.
But why ‘eat’? Resistance and symbiosis are easy to understand, but what’s so big about ‘eating’?
Why does one of the most essential directions of mutation have to be related to ‘eating’?
"hungry!"
The Yan Slave's communication signal network constantly reflected the ant queen's crazy shouts.
That strong signal is full of wildness. The ant has no other thoughts at all. After getting the mutation, it only has the most primitive desire in its mind.
Suddenly, Yan Nu realized: "Yes, 'eating' is not vulgar. In other words, it is the most primitive desire of life."
The source of life's survival is eating.
Whether it is a human being, an animal, a plant or an insect, everyone lives to eat.
A kind of creature, no matter how simple it is, no matter how small it is that it cannot be seen, even if it has no functions, it cannot see, hear, think, or move...
It must also have the most basic ability, which is eating.
To obtain external matter and energy.
If it doesn't do this, it is a dead thing and will never be alive.
"Does it have to be based on these four routes to mutate characteristics? No..."
"There is another special case, and that is my artistic conception."
"That was the first time that I independently mutated a new ability based on my inner desires."
"As Cher said, my adaptation was originally just a primitive desire, instinctive, and attached to the most essential needs...physiology and safety."
"The artistic conception of reincarnation means that I have begun to move from ignorance to civilization. Reason has overtaken instinct, and there is an additional spiritual need, which is the fifth mutation route."
"This is only reflected in the practice of spiritual ability for the time being. My spiritual ability has always been weak, and even my spiritual consciousness belongs to others."
"I'm afraid that in order for the 'spiritual needs' to be triggered, it must be an ability truly transformed from self-cultivation, so only the martial arts artistic conception is triggered."
Yan Nu thought about it and realized that he had to practice a spiritual technique or system.
Whether it is testing spiritual needs or whether it is true, or the current plight of the insect and ant body, there is an urgent need for him to develop this aspect.
"However, all cultivation systems, except martial arts, have been closed to me."
"Beyond the artistic conception, there is really nothing left to explore. By the way...the way of the mechanism."
"Luo Yan said that the way of mechanism is not the same thing as the way of heaven. It is a system derived from another strange object."
"Hey, I should have practiced the art of mechanism a long time ago."
Yan Nu thought of this and flapped his tentacles.
Suddenly, he felt a weak signal and asked himself proactively: "Are you the great Insect King?"
"Huh? Can ants also emit such complex signals?"
Yan Nu was startled, then looked in the direction of the untouchable woman in surprise.
I had been thinking about abilities just now, and I didn't notice that the mortal who 'suicided' was not dead.
Not only that, the whole body secreted mucus and wrapped it into a huge chrysalis.
Although the people inside were bloody and motionless, through the semaphore, Yan Slave could clearly distinguish...the people inside and the eaten queen were still alive.
The two are connected by blood, and they seem to be integrated into one.
Breathing, heartbeat, or all the rhythms of qi and blood in the body are echoing each other, just like one person.
