Nightmare Corrosion

Chapter 457 Terrifying Reproductive Ability!

Are these the snakemen in the inner world?

Lu En paused for a moment, but he did not feel any hindrance during this process.

It was just like he casually explored the believers in the real world. The inner world and the real world were supposed to be two separate worlds, but Lu En could not feel any difference!

"Is it because they were originally one world, or is it because the line of faith is special, that it can not only cross space, but also cross the world?"

Lu En had a guess in his mind, and then he remembered another thing.

"Doesn't the inner world prohibit all external extraordinary factors? Why can the line of faith still be connected? Could it be that the line of faith does not belong to the category of extraordinary?"

Lu En could clearly see the line of faith emerging from the dying weak snakeman. Under the rules of the inner world, this was like an absolutely impossible thing.

Any extraordinary factors that do not rely on physical objects are prohibited and rejected in the inner world. Even pure spirits cannot survive. But now the appearance of the line of faith has broken this common sense!

"This may also be due to the fusion of the two worlds, and the gradual relaxation of the rules."

Lu En thought for a while, and then stopped thinking about it. After all, he is not even a demigod yet, and it is too early to explore the line of faith. Since the real world will release the upper limit of power and allow demigods to appear in three years, or two and a half years to be exact, the inner world will naturally change.

After all, the fusion of the two worlds will definitely change both worlds.

"It's my first snake man believer who looks like he will die soon."

Lu En focused his attention on the seriously injured snake man. It was hard to tell what caused the injury, but it looked like it had been a long time. The wound was rotten, and even the bones underneath were exposed.

Snake men are not real people. Their main activity depends on the long and flexible snake tail in the lower body. Once injured here, it can't be considered a trivial matter.

Besides, the society of these snake men is still in an extremely primitive period. Not to mention treatment, even herbs are probably still in their infancy. Once injured, they can only rely on their strong physical fitness to fight through.

Lu En saw at a glance that the snake man's injuries, in addition to the decay caused by long delay, also had other traces of toxins and infections. In short, lying in the corner, his whole body exuded a rotten smell.

Compared with the lava snake man with whom he had a distant relationship, these snake men who made up the tribe were much more united, but under such injuries, they could only let them fend for themselves, which was equivalent to giving up.

"Maybe this is why he has a line of faith in me, and it doesn't look stable."

Lu En secretly guessed that the line of faith generated by this snake man was shaky. Not only was he about to die, but he was also in a state of doubt about Lu En, or the unknown existence represented by the statue.

However, seeing that there was no other way, he prayed to Lu En as if he had grabbed the last straw.

Or, this is more like a primitive worship. Because the belief is too strong, the line of faith is temporarily formed. If Lu En ignores it, it will naturally break in a short time.

"It turns out that this is possible, and the progress of these snakemen is not as fast as I thought."

For a while, the snakeman could not die. Lu En turned his view and began to observe the surroundings. This was the underground where these snakemen mainly lived, which he had not deeply understood before. However, it looked no different from ordinary caves.

At most, Lu En found that some caves did not have snakemen living in them, but were flowing with hot magma, and simple casting tools were placed. In other rooms, some half-human-high eggs were neatly placed.

These are all snakemen's eggs!

The line of faith is completely open to Lu En, so Lu En quickly understood the situation of these snakemen. There is nothing surprising about egg-laying, but the fertility of these snakemen surprised Lu En.

Unlike humans who can estrus at any time, these snakemen only have estrus for a short period of two or three months every year to mate, but as long as there is enough food, every female snakeman can lay a snake egg every day!

That is to say, in the extreme case, a small tribe of dozens of people, once the estrus period ends, will have hundreds of young snakemen after three to six months of incubation!

Although the growth period is slightly slow, at most ten years, these little snakemen will become qualified warriors. In fact, they will have the initial self-protection and combat capabilities even after one or two years of birth!

This reproduction rate can only be described as terrifying!

Of course, this is only an ideal state. In the real reality, the snakemen will control the number of tribes according to the bearing capacity of the surrounding environment to ensure that they will not exhaust the pond and fish. Moreover, these snakemen also have requirements for the living environment.

About 80 to 100 degrees, which is enough to burn ordinary people into charcoal, is their comfortable temperature. For these snakemen, 20 to 30 degrees may freeze them to death, which also makes their communities only distributed around the volcanic group.

In addition, the metal armor that Lu En thought was used to protect himself before is actually used to maintain the temperature for these snakemen.

Even so, without the protection of lava snakemen such as bishops, these snakemen are actually a vulnerable group in the inner world, and the fierce competition between creatures can be seen.

You should know that on the home trees created by the creators that Lu En saw, groups like the Fairy Queen, the hatching and maturation of individuals only need half a month to form an extremely terrifying scale.

"No wonder in the future described by Dak, in just the second stage of world fusion, humans have already retreated step by step. Ordinary people can only hide in the giant city and dare not go out. The creatures in the inner world are indeed much stronger than the real world."

In fact, if it were just like this, with the current level of development of humans, they would not be afraid at all. After the federal government approached Lu En, some previously top-secret news was no longer a secret to Lu En.

It's like this world has no weapons like nuclear bombs, but other weapons of mass destruction are not too few, it's just a matter of range and power.

But these creatures are, in a sense, extraordinary creatures, and the research of the federation has gradually deviated the technology tree.

They did not pursue weapons with greater power, such as nuclear bombs, but found a way to combine technology and transcendence, and gradually shifted from gathering the power of the crowd to improving personal power, and they were already leaning towards the path of transcendence from the root.

It is hard to say whether it is right or wrong. For Lu En, who had experienced the advanced technology of Blue Star in his previous life, it may be a pity that there are no nuclear bombs, no spaceships and space stations traveling in the universe, and no dragons diving into the deep sea in this world, but it may not be a wrong path for the people in this world.

After all, even if a nuclear bomb is developed, it will be useless without people to operate it.

"For this world, transcendence is the right path, and pure technology can only lead to death!"

Shaking his head, Lu En moved his mind, and a red light followed the line of faith and entered the body of the snake man.
