Chapter 996 Mist (Willful Requires a Monthly Pass!)
There was a worrying atmosphere in the fog, and danger seemed to be everywhere among the shadows. If it were before, the cautious Zhao Mai would immediately disperse the fog, trying to nip the danger in the bud. But this time he allowed the mist to exist.
There are also opportunities in crises, which is the true meaning of blessings and misfortunes. Therefore, Zhao Mai only partially dispersed the fog to ensure that the area near the entrance of the Vulcan Forge was always clearly visible, while the other parts remained. Then, through natural force induction, he began to search for the source of the fog around him.
"Ha, it is indeed the people in Elesio's village who are releasing the thick fog. What an interesting ability. So, that high-speed runner is also one of their villagers?" Zhao Mai saw it through the "eyes" of the vines. A person who is performing supernatural powers. It was a fat boy with a bulging body who was slowly "deflating". This thick fog was released from his body, and then appeared out of thin air within a certain range around him.
When the Death Star appears, the weakened light is at its strongest, and all superpowers that work far away from the body, such as magic and summoning dense fog, will be the first to be greatly affected. While the little fat man was successfully losing weight, he was also suffering from side effects. His body twitched, and from time to time he would grit his teeth and twitch the corners of his eyes. Just looking at him made people feel pain for him.
There was an old man in the same room with him. He used a cane to open a corner of the curtain and looked out with his eyes closed. "Okay, Scud is now safe, and those police have lost their target. You can stop and rest."
"Grandpa Simon, I can't stop..." the little fat man gritted his teeth and said: "I can't control the mist, it's like there are forces around me that are constantly sucking the mist away from my body. I...I can only... Clear the fog, there’s no other way!”
"Then drain it all, and you can eat it back slowly. Alas, the Death Star appeared early, and the Scud was exposed. It seems that we may not be able to get the medicine we need this time."
The little fat man's condition took a turn for the worse, and big beads of sweat suddenly formed on his forehead. How could he still care about talking to old man Simon? As a mouthful of blood spurted out, the little fat man suddenly shriveled up, and his body and limbs became very slender. Only the size of his head remained the same, making him appear huge and abrupt. Simon rushed over, helped him up from the ground, and asked him about his situation.
"It's okay, I'm fine. Fortunately, it was cut off in time, otherwise I would have been sucked dry."
"Who sucked you dry? Is it Lord Dragon Roar? Did you offend him because you released the thick fog?" Simon frowned tightly. He will definitely be worried, after all, the "Lord" is a being that the entire village cannot defeat.
"No, I think the surrounding air is sucking away the fog from me... No, it's light, the light of the Death Star!" The little fat man wiped the blood from his lips and put his arm on Simon's shoulders: "Grandpa, I have to tell others that there is something else in the mist, I can feel something coming out!"
Not only the "little fat man", but Zhao Mai also noticed something was wrong. Except for the Vulcan Cave and the areas above it, which still remains clear, thick fog has covered all areas near the volcano, and it has become denser than before. Ordinary people cannot see beyond two meters in the fog, and their sense of direction will become disordered.
To be precise, the space in the thick fog has become unstable. Zhao Mai has already smelled the observer's ability, which is the feeling of manipulating space to hide himself and attack the enemy. It's just that the power in the thick fog is too weak to pose a threat to Zhao Mai at all. It seems more like an unintentional move, just the result of weakening the interaction between the ray and the little fat man's ability.
The green Death Star light had left Zhao Mai with a sense of space ability before, and Xiaopang's thick fog also appeared far away from the body through some kind of space power. If the two interacted to create a new effect, it makes sense. It makes sense, but the probability is another matter. Zhao Mai increased his vigilance, taking precautions while observing the changes in the fog.
The chaotic space energy entangled with each other, tearing open tiny cracks. Their size, at the molecular level to begin with, makes them unable to transmit almost anything. It's just that once these cracks appear, they don't disappear. They slowly expand and merge with each other.
Soon, dust was squeezed out of the cracks, followed closely by spores of some kind of fungus. At this time, the spatial disorder had become very serious. Zhao Mai's psychic powers were cut into pieces and his senses were also affected. Only the areas formed by the natural force connected by the vegetation on the soles of the feet can barely remain continuous.
Zhao Mai pulled the spores from a position closer to him, wrapped them in Z-worm source matter, and slowly analyzed them. This is a fungus that I have never seen before. It has no other advantages except for its good heat resistance, and it is not a threat.
As the crack continued to widen, a strange creature not much larger than a louse popped out. It has a translucent hard shell, eight slender flaky legs, and a sucker-like mouth full of fine teeth. It is lighter than air and uses its flaky legs to jump and glide through the air, chasing the heat-resistant fungi that came out before it. When it jumped on Zhao Mai, it opened its mouth and bit into the skin.
How could the "sucker flea" be the opponent of Z-worm cells? Its fangs and sharp teeth can't even leave a scratch. But this little thing is quite ferocious, and he attacks Zhao Mai persistently and continuously. It seemed to be caught in a kind of fanaticism. Even if Zhao Mai grabbed the fungus it loved to eat and brought it to his mouth, it turned a blind eye and had no intention of stopping.
"It's quite vicious!" Zhao Mai directly ate it up with Z-worm cells, and then began to imitate and study its bloodline abilities. Any creature that ranks "killing" before "eating" is a creature that requires special precautions, even if it is too small to hurt humans at all.
This is definitely an invasion of alien species. Zhao Mai let out a sigh, then scooped up a large number of "sucker fleas", and then swallowed them with Z insect source.
With a squirm of the skin, Zhao Mai gathered the digested "sucker flea" residue in the palm of his hand. The Z-worm has an unparalleled ability to absorb and utilize various substances. After decomposing the "sucker flea", electronic components were actually found inside!
"There are many types. They don't seem to grow out, but are eaten and stored in one's body. Are there smaller components in the fungal spores?" Zhao Mai couldn't understand: "These components are simply useless and have no function." If you don’t have it, what will it do if you eat it and keep it in your body?”
The space rift continues to expand. When a creature that looked like a spider in size and shape appeared, and when Zhao Mai found more integrated components in its body, he probably understood.
This is a biological factory that grows from small to large, from decentralized to centralized, constantly gathering various parts according to the food chain. Not only the volume of components, but also their proportion in the living body. Zhao Mai quickly calculated what size the creature would grow to if the proportion reached 100%. When he looked up and saw the Death Star.
Also found the answer.
