Under Feng Yun's control, all the locust eggs were contaminated with the spore powder of the Locust Tree Mushroom, and no one was left out.
Mu Qiuxia, who saw this scene in her eyes, couldn't help but have a look of expectation on her face, but she didn't say anything, just watched quietly, as if she was worried that she would disturb Feng Yun and hinder his next operation.
Before the spore powder stirred by him fell to the bottom of the glass box, Feng Yun began to summon the power of nature and fresh air, and transported it in through the small hole in the box.
After a while, white mist filled the glass box, and then the locust eggs seemed to be awakened and began to absorb the mist.
At the beginning, they were still in a relatively passive state. They could only absorb the mist when they came into contact with it, but they soon changed from passive to active.
As long as you get close to them at a certain distance, the mist will be absorbed by them, as if they are emitting a suction force.
After receiving a high concentration of natural power and fresh air, their development became rapid. After only a quarter of an hour, they began to brighten.
Although not quite as electrified as a lightbulb, it is not much different from a candle, and more importantly, light emanates from their interior.
This allows one to see clearly inside them.
With Fengyun's eyesight, he can see every change inside the egg, especially the development process of the locust before hatching, which is really scary and fascinating.
But he didn't pay too much attention. He had seen the same process many times.
What he is now concerned about is whether the spore powder of the Locust-eating Tree Mushroom can still be lethal to locusts. After all, the origin of the spore powder this time is somewhat special.
From the bottom of his heart, he hoped that the spore powder would work this time.
In this way, Mu Qiuxia's potential to obtain locust-eating mushrooms through hybridization will be greatly increased, and it can even become a decisive force in destroying the locust army.
In addition, he also feels that the Locust-Eating Tree Mushroom has potential to be tapped, which can further increase the threat to the locust army. However, all this has a premise, that is, the spore powder obtained this time can still play a role, otherwise everything will There will be no discussion.
Therefore, Fengyun paid more attention to the spore powder and wanted to confirm what kind of threat they would pose to the locusts that emerged from their shells.
However, before the locusts were hatched, a look of surprise appeared on Feng Yun's face.
He originally thought that the spore powder would only work after the locusts were hatched. No wonder, this was the case with locust-eating bacteria.
As for the spore powder that was tested for the first time not long ago, locust-eating mushrooms were tested directly on locusts, so he didn't expect anything special about them.
Now he suddenly discovered that the spore powder of these locust-eating mushrooms was more destructive. They did not wait for the locusts to hatch before they attacked them.
They poked out hyphae that are many times thinner than hair. Unless Fengyun's eyesight is good enough, he can't even see them, but their destructive power makes people dare not underestimate them at all. The ground pierces the shell of the locust eggs and goes deep into them.
Fengyun has come into contact with locust eggs many times and knows how strong their shells are.
Don't look at the fact that their shells only have a thin layer. It seems that they can be broken with a gentle pinch, but the actual situation is completely different. They all possess extremely high strength.
Not to mention ordinary people, even totem warriors who are not high enough in level have nothing to do with them. Even if they find them, it is difficult to destroy them.
But in front of the mycelium of the Locust Tree Mushroom, they were completely vulnerable. Fengyun could feel a sense of relief just by looking at it. When the mycelium drilled into the locust eggs, there was almost no pause and it was very easy. The egg shell was drilled through.
After the mycelium of the locust-eating mushroom enters the inside of the locust eggs,
The growth rate increased immediately, and increased many times at once. They began to tiller in a very short period of time, and then tillered again.
In a short period of time, they have invaded the entire inside of the locust egg.
Although they are too slender, ordinary people may not even be able to detect their existence, but Fengyun can already conclude that these locust eggs that have been eroded by the Locust-eating Tree Mushroom are finished, and there is no trace at all. Possibility of survival.
With the help of his super eyesight, Fengyun discovered that after the mycelium of the Locust Tree Mushroom entered the locust eggs, whether they were individuals that were almost fully developed or those that had just begun to develop, they were all penetrated by the mycelium without exception. .
In other words, they are already under the control of the Locust-eating Tree Mushroom. Based on his understanding of it and other fungi, it is absolutely impossible for them to let go of these locusts in various stages of development.
The subsequent development of events also confirmed Feng Yun's inference.
After the Locust-eating Tree Mushroom penetrates the shell of the locust egg with mycelium and enters it, it immediately kills the developing locust.
Their method is very simple and crude, they suck them dry directly, but the effect is also very good.
On average, in less than half an hour, they completely wipe out the vitality of the locust eggs, leaving only an empty shell.
During this process, their growth rate has also been significantly improved. At least the hyphae that penetrate the locust eggs have become much thicker, and even ordinary people can see them quite clearly.
Overall, the Locust-Eating Tree Mushroom launched a beautiful stranglehold on the locust eggs, and the effect was very good, destroying all the locust eggs.
The total number of locust eggs in the entire glass box was close to a thousand, but in the end, none of them could survive. They showed extremely amazing destructive power.
Seeing the performance of the Locust Tree Mushrooms, Feng Yun felt that they were too late to meet.
If they can be discovered earlier, they can be used to eliminate the locust eggs left behind after the locust plague passes through.
The current locust army is all hatched from locust eggs. In other words, if they can be eliminated when they are still eggs, they will not appear, and naturally there will be no need to worry and waste time. Deal with them.
As for whether the Locust Tree Mushroom can do it? Their performance at this time is already the strongest evidence.
Even if the real environment is different from the laboratory environment, because locust eggs are hidden underground and it is difficult to directly contact them, their presence can still make the scope of the purification zone much larger than it is now.
You must know how to eliminate all the locust eggs at that time, but it took up a lot of everyone's energy and time.
Because their shells are too strong, even if they are dug out of the ground, ordinary totem warriors are unable to kill them. They must wait until a group of strong men, including Fengyun, who have reached the true spirit level to do so. , greatly reducing the efficiency of removing locust eggs.
If there were spore powder of the Locust Tree Mushroom at that time, just sprinkle a little on the dug out locust eggs, and there would be no need to worry about it anymore. They would help people kill all the locust eggs by themselves.
Judging from the performance of the Locust Tree Mushroom, there is no need to worry about the locust eggs slipping through the net. It is both efficient and worry-free.
Feng Yun shook his head slightly, cleared away the distracting thoughts in his mind, and continued to observe the Locust-Eating Mushrooms in the glass box that had completed the killing, trying to confirm what kind of performance they would have next.
Then he discovered they were trapped.
Destroying the locust eggs and devouring them, they became the nourishment for their growth, and indeed allowed them to grow considerably, but at the same time, they were trapped in the egg shells.
This reminded him of a fishing method, which is to use a net to circle a piece of water and then sprinkle food inside to attract fish to eat.
Over time, some fish were reluctant to leave and stayed in the net. When they finally wanted to leave, they were left behind because they had grown up and could not pass through the mesh. In the end, they all became fishermen. Human prey.
However, he soon discovered that these locust-eating mushrooms were different from those greedy fish. They had the ability to drill through the strong shell of locust eggs to complete the hunt, and they were also capable of escaping unscathed.
Right before Fengyun's eyes, they displayed destructive power that seemed disproportionate to their size.
The hyphae trapped in the empty shells of locust eggs showed a state of stretching outwards, as if they wanted to burst the egg shells, and they finally did it.
Glancing at the fragments of locust eggs scattered at the bottom of the glass box, Feng Yun's eyes couldn't help but light up as he looked at the Locust Tree Mushroom.
They were stronger than he expected.
If they can be used well, maybe they can really deal a heavy blow to the locust army.
The Locust-Eating Tree Mushrooms that broke out of their shells once again showed their ferocious side. In order to grow, they began to kill each other, killing their own kind and turning them into nutrients for their own growth.
This time, only one plant survived in the end, but compared to the last time, it was significantly larger, almost as big as the Locust-Eating Tree Mushroom that Mu Qiuxia selected and cultivated.
Perhaps because of its larger size, this time the Locust-Eating Tree Mushroom behaved differently from the previous one. It did not accept its fate and gave up breaking the glass. Finally, it spread its spore powder through a near-suicide method.
It directly attacked the glass, obviously hoping to use its own strength to break the cage, escape to heaven, and gain freedom.
It first found a lot of mycelium close to the wall of the box and adhered to the glass. Then the hyphae attached to the glass started to move.
Feng Yun didn't know how they exerted their force, but this did not prevent him from making a judgment. If he didn't stop it, the glass would really break.
It is still relatively difficult to refine glass that can reach this strength. The most important thing is that he can't spare the time before the threat of the locust army to the Golden Dragon Tribe is eliminated. And if the glass breaks, it will This will make many experiments impossible.
Even if there is more than one glass box like this, if one is missing, it will not be very convenient to use, or at least it will reduce the efficiency a lot.
Therefore, Fengyun wanted to confirm how destructive the Locust Tree Mushroom was, but he still took action in time.
The effect of his attack was also very good. His hand had just reached out to the glass box, and before it even touched it, the mycelium of the Locust-Eating Mushroom adhering to the glass seemed to have been electrocuted, and they all dodged.
In a very short time, they were all separated from the glass.
At the same time, it itself became very honest, staying in place and moving without moving, not even a single hyphae moved.
It's like being under a holding spell.
Of course, it didn't have the immobilization technique, it was frightened.
Fengyun Wai released a sword intention, covering it, and immediately shocked it, so that it did not dare to make any more moves.
After restraining the Locust-Eating Tree Mushroom, Feng Yun turned to look at Mu Qiuxia and asked: "Wizard Qiuxia, this tree mushroom seems to be very simple. Where did you find them?"
He is not a fool. Through the series of performances of the Locust Tree Mushroom, he has already realized that something is wrong.
He knew quite a bit about the locust-eating bacteria. There was nothing special about it, so the problem could only be the tree mushroom that hybridized with it.
To be honest, he was very interested in it.
Its behavior was not only different from the fungi he had directly come into contact with, but also very different from other plants. Some of its behaviors were closer to animals.
More importantly, it has shown some intelligence, and it is not low, which is very magical.
"Yun, let me think about it first. It's been a long time."
Mu Qiuxia waved her hand gently at Fengyun, and then began to think about it.
Fengyun did not disturb her, because he could see that she was really thinking about it seriously. It was obvious that she also had a very strong interest in tree mushrooms.
After a full quarter of an hour, when Feng Yun was getting a little impatient, Mu Qiuxia finally got out of the recalling state, clapped her hands heavily, and shouted: "I remembered. I remembered where I found it. ”
Hearing this, Feng Yun's eyes couldn't help but light up, and he asked urgently: "Where is it?"
"Speaking of it, it's been quite a long time. When I discovered it, it was not long after we moved to this world."
After saying this, Mu Qiuxia glanced at Feng Yun and asked: "Yun, do you still remember that I once went out and failed to return, and the entire tribe went to look for me?"
"Is it the time when our tribe moved about half a year to this time?"
After Fengyun's brain evolved, his memory became much better. With Arimu Qiuxia's reminder, he almost didn't have to think about it. In an instant, he thought of what she asked.
"Yeah."
Mu Qiuxia nodded quickly and said: "That's when I got the spore powder of the tree mushroom. I gave it away afterward. If I hadn't done the experiment this time, I wouldn't have thought of it."
