Chapter 1533 The Parasitic Mystery (Ⅱ)
Joan stared at the slightly trembling blue light blade shot out from the hilt, and used his mental power to establish a connection with the "Rune Sword". He controlled the blade to shorten to about three feet, and then flew up to the back of the tyrannosaur, cutting with the sword.
The force field generated by the rune sword has no entity, regardless of the hardness of the object. Cutting a dragon scale as hard as a steel plate is as easy as cutting cardboard. Deep in the wound where the skin is ripped apart and close to the spine, two rows of foreign objects the size of a thumb can be vaguely seen , buried deep in the flesh and blood.
Joanna took a piece of clean gauze to wipe off the blood gushing out from the incision, held a pair of tweezers in her right hand, and grabbed the parasite tightly attached to the spine of the Tyrannosaurus rex, carefully tore it off, and transferred it to a glass dish .
At this time, Pinkerton, Ruby, Hailar, and Zion siblings also came down from the top of the slope, surrounded the tyrannosaur, and looked up at the young mage who was busy on the dragon's back.
"Brother Joan, what are you doing?" Mr. Detective asked curiously.
"Do a minor operation on the Tyrannosaurus rex to remove the parasites from its body." Joan replied concisely.
"Be careful, don't be bitten by parasites!"
Holden exhorted a few words with concern, but this caused his sister and Hailar to roll their eyes, thinking that he was "crow's mouth" again.
Joan shook his head and signaled that he didn't have to worry about him: "These parasites have been hypnotized by me, no matter how I fiddle with them, they won't wake up."
The operation lasted about 20 minutes in total. Joan took out all the parasites in the Tyrannosaurus rex, then leaned over and waved to Audrey.
"Come up and help!"
Her Royal Highness quickly climbed onto the back of the tyrannosaurus, and teased with a smile: "Doctor Vader, your exclusive little nurse is here to report, what are your orders?"
Joan blushed, pointed at the neck of the tyrannosaurus, and said in a low voice, "Please treat the incision after surgery. It's still useful to keep this tyrannosaurus, but don't let it die."
"As ordered."
Her Royal Highness smiled and nodded, stretched out her hand to hold the tyrannosaur's neck, and performed lay healing.
Soft light gushed out from her fingertips and penetrated into the incision made by Joan just now.
Under the comfort of the holy light, the two long and deep incisions quickly stopped bleeding and healed.
After thanking Audrey, Joan put away the glass dish and surgical knife, and flew off the Tyrannosaurus' back.
As soon as their feet landed, Pinkerton, Ruby, Hyrule, and Holden gathered around, all curious eyes focused on the glass vessel containing the parasites.
Joan placed the glass dish flat on a rock and used a "magic trick" to remove the blood stains attached to the surface of the parasites so that everyone could see their true colors.
The parasites contained in the glass dish are 12 thumb-sized Hymenoptera insects. Compared with ordinary wasps, there are only slight differences in appearance - fine magenta stripes appear on the shiny black carapace, and raised The compound eyes have an emerald color.
"What kind of strange insect is this? It looks a bit familiar, as if I've seen it somewhere..." Hailar stroked the twin ponytails, bit his lips and fell into thought.
"It's Yellow Spring Bee." Joan revealed the answer, "Do you remember the military mission in Bailun Mountain last year?"
"Of course I remember! At that time, we were hunting Peridon on the top of the mountain, and then there were three 'wormy people' from the primitive religious order who came to make trouble and were persuaded by Mrs. Josephine." Holden turned his head and looked at Ruby. , "You were there at the time, remember?"
"Remember! That day was the first time Ruby and I met Brother Joan, um...he looked at me very evilly."
"Miss Ruby" has a strange expression on her face.
"That's because you think too much!"
With a guilty conscience, Qiao An didn't dare to look directly at Little Lolita, and hurriedly changed the subject.
"The leader of the 'Insect-Human' is the 'Wasp Girl' named Jenny, who once summoned a large group of these Huangquan bees with a staff. It's a pity that none of you were there at the time and didn't see it."
"I recognize Sister Jenny, but is there anything special about the insect she summoned?" Ruby asked inexplicably.
"Yellow Spring Bee is not an ordinary insect. It is a magical beast native to Bator Hell. In fact, it is more like a tiny devil. It has a very terrifying special ability. It can swarm into other living things and control the host's actions. .”
Pinkerton slapped his forehead and suddenly said: "It turns out that the root of the dinosaur's madness is here!"
"It's no wonder that horror novels often describe stories about demons possessing mortals to do evil. So there really is such a thing!"
Ruby also had a look of sudden realization.
"Purgatory creatures like Huangquan bee are very rare in the material world, and it is even more impossible for them to gather at the shore of Lake Aosta for no reason. There may be conspirator behind these little devils."
Pinkerton lit his pipe, and started reasoning based on the newly discovered clues.
Joann agrees with Mr. Detective to provide a more in-depth analysis on the topic.
"The parasitic ability of Huangquan bee has no requirements for the host. They have no reason to ignore the smaller dinosaurs and choose giant beasts like Tyrannosaurus as hosts. There is no need to force the host to stay away from the habitat. Trek hundreds of miles, deliberately attacking human settlements."
"But Huangquan bee did all the above-mentioned behaviors that violated common sense. I can only suspect that someone behind the scenes asked them to do so, and Huangquan bee cannot disobey the order of the other party."
"It is not an easy task to summon a group of Huangquan bees from Baator Hell to the human world and force these violent monsters to obey orders. There are two ways I can think of. One is to use the 'Oath from Otherworld' 'Spell-like, the second is to use the 5-ring spell 'Plague Swarm'."
"Brother Qiao An, I don't understand 'Oath from Another World', but I also know the spell 'Plague Swarm'. Usually it can only be used to summon insects from the natural world. Even the mythical version of Plague Swarm is a supernatural insect summoned." , such as giant mosquitoes, which are also creatures that originally existed in the human world, how can we summon a swarm of bees from hell?" Ruby asked in confusion.
"Indeed, the magic power level of ordinary 'Plague Swarm' is too low to directly summon Huangquan bee swarms, but as long as it is matched with a special casting material, the power of this spell can be enhanced, opening the gates of hell, and summoning large swarms of bees." Yellow Spring Bee."
Under everyone's curious gaze, Qiao An said in a low voice the key material to strengthen the "Plague Swarm".
"This special spell-casting material is the essence extracted from the blood of the devil."
"According to this, if someone wants to summon a swarm of underworld bees, he must first try to capture some devils and collect the blood of the devils as a spell-casting material..." Holden scratched his head and smiled wryly, "This operation is not only troublesome, but also very dangerous, after all. The devil is not easy to mess with, how could it be so easy to obediently donate blood? Who would go to such lengths to do such a thing?"
Affected by the epidemic, the children in my family have not started school yet, and I have to take care of them separately. In addition, the elderly in the family died of illness and need to take care of the funeral. This April, I may not be able to maintain four shifts a day, but I will insist on at least three shifts a day. Please forgive me the book friends who have accompanied me on this journey until now.
Please ask for two guaranteed monthly tickets, thank you.
