One Hundred and Fifty Two, Breakout (5)
These days, Feng Luo has never revealed 24k in front of others.
One is that because most of the people who participated in this mission had participated in the previous cleanup mission, they naturally recognized the seven common beetles.
Although due to the special situation in the last temple, they don't know what the 24k one looks like, but many people have already guessed that there is a king worm with commanding ability in the beetle swarm of the ruins.
If he used other beetles besides the scouting beetle in front of these people, it would be easy for them to guess that Feng Luo was the last one to get it in the temple, and they could also guess the 24k grade.
Of course, it's okay to be guessed, because it's not something you can't meet people at all.
It's just that at present, Feng Luo doesn't want to expose the fact that he owns pets, but is going to wait until there are more people who own pets before revealing it, so that it will not attract attention.
Because according to the current situation, it was very difficult for players to own a pet, and this kind of boss-level pet had never been heard of before. Feng Luo hadn't planned to make himself a topical person yet.
Another point is that after the death of the elite scouting beetle, he can't use 24k for the time being, so he keeps receiving 24k in the pet space, and only occasionally releases it to feed some energy spars to avoid the decline of "intimacy".
To be honest, the usefulness of scout beetles is undoubtedly enormous.
After the scouting beetles disappeared, and the entire Rogge Town was blocked by the Umbrella Company's communication, the players were completely in a situation of "blackness in front of their eyes", and they couldn't help but feel unsure about making any decisions.
Therefore, Feng Luo had always planned to hatch a "reconnaissance beetle" in his heart.
However, to hatch a beetle requires certain conditions. In addition to the eggs in the king worm, it also needs enough psionic energy to catalyze it, and the most important thing is: the corpse of a monster of a certain level is required!
Are there any monsters in Rogue town?
Maybe there was one zombie dog I met before, and the level reached 45, but the corpses of the two zombie dogs have been taken away by the people of the umbrella company, and the elite scout beetle was not dead at that time, Feng Luo never thought about hatching.
On the following day, due to the full-scale outbreak of the biochemical crisis, the entire Rogge Town was in chaos, and then almost all the living things were eaten by the zombies, and now there is not even a level 1 mouse, let alone a mouse that meets the requirements. Level requirements for monsters are gone.
As for the huge number of zombies?
Feng Luo only found out later,
Overlord eggs cannot be laid on the corpses of humanoid or humanoid creatures.
In other words, the zombies everywhere in rogge town could not be used to hatch scout beetles, which was why Feng Luo had never had the chance to replenish a scout beetle.
It is undoubtedly luck to meet this golden python now.
Not only is it classified as a monster, but it also has a level of 25, which just meets the minimum hatching conditions for scouting beetles.
A certain level of monster corpse is required to hatch a certain kind of beetle (different beetle requirements are different), this is because the beetle will "swallow" the monster's corpse during the hatching process.
Of course, the so-called "swallowing" does not really mean eating all the corpses, but a description.
To be honest, since the reconnaissance beetle is no more than the size of a fingernail, it would take at least ten and a half days to swallow the corpse of a three-meter-long golden python, not to mention whether it can be eaten. month's time?
Therefore, the so-called "eating" is precisely to absorb all the essence and nutrients from the golden python, and changing it to another term means "gaining experience points".
After the eggs hatch, the newborn beetles will get a certain percentage of the experience points in front of the monster. This is undoubtedly a very worry-free setting for Feng Luo. Beetle troops can quickly form combat power.
...
An exquisite translucent egg that looked like a grain of rice was injected into the body of the golden python.
Afterwards, the eggs began to emit a faint golden light, a kind of energy named phantom energy by the system, began to flow to the body of the golden python, constructing strange energy channels.
The entire body of the golden python also began to emit a faint light, but the nutrients in it seemed to be constantly losing, the golden scales on the body began to lose their luster, and the rattlesnake-like tail also began to become sunken.
Although the golden python level 25 just meets the conditions for scouting beetle hatching, it is an elite monster, and its energy provides more energy and experience than ordinary monsters.
[The scout beetle is hatching, estimated time: 180 seconds! 】
A system prompt message flashed across Feng Luo's vision.
The stronger the monster corpse, the longer it would take for the eggs to absorb the nutrients. The previous elite scout beetle was hatched with the help of a level 45 elite monster, and it took ten minutes to complete.
However, one hundred and eighty seconds must be a bit long under the current circumstances. With the people in front of them retreating, Feng Luo would definitely not be able to wait here for three minutes.
Moreover, he fired two shots before, and it is impossible to stay in this position for too long, otherwise he may be locked by the umbrella company.
So Feng Luo chose to leave immediately after the hatching information appeared. As for the scouting beetle, as soon as it hatched, it would get a spiritual link with 24K, and it would naturally fly to his side at that time.
"Wait a minute... I'm sorry, I forgot one thing!"
However, just as he took a few steps towards the door with his gun in hand, something suddenly occurred to Feng Luo's mind.
If the player is infected by the t-virus, he will become an elite monster after death!
He wasn't sure whether the hostile sniper player just now was infected, but even though he had only looked at the front through the scope, Feng Luo had already keenly noticed that his pupils were dark red, which was different from ordinary people's.
This special phenomenon may not be so simple!
With a thought, the window on the other side of Feng Luo's window flipped out and immediately changed direction, and quickly groped towards a position where he could see the body of the sniper player.
A few seconds later, when he saw the empty ground, leaving only a pool of red and black blood and broken combat uniforms, Feng Luo knew that something was wrong as he had imagined.
On the street in front of the shop, a line of blood-stained footprints that looked like sharp claws stretched straight towards the retreating crowd not far away.
What's more, you can hear the unconcealable noisy and panicked shouts among the breakout crowd in the distance, against the background of various gunshots.
