My Doomsday Bug Nest - Chapter 26
Chapter 26 Mutated Snake
Many special buildings were unique, which meant that he could only build one building. Naturally, the sooner he built the buildings, the better. He did not want to waste time.
Once a battle started, it was easy to cause a commotion. The zombies on the nearby streets were also attracted, which made Ling Yichen feel a little troubled.
There were indeed too many zombies, but it also meant that Ling Yichen would earn another “huge sum”.
While the Golden-Back Saber Mantises and the Black Iron Armors fought, the Worker Bees brought over the corpses of the zombies and mutated creatures that had been killed. They handed them to Ling Yichen to throw into the Insect Nest Demiplane.
He wondered if this group of zombies and mutated creatures had comprehended any skills. In that case, he and the others would have a higher chance of absorbing skills.
At this moment, a group of mutated pigeons flew over from the sky. The leader was clearly the pigeon king that emerged from the group.
This group of mutated pigeons was blood-red all over, and their bodies were larger than an adult rooster. Clearly, they were mutating in the same direction, but it was unclear what their specific abilities were.
However, it did not matter whether he knew about their abilities or not. Their target was Ling Yichen and the other three people in the alley, so they flew into the alley from above the two buildings in an orderly manner, wanting to outflank the four people.
In the end, when they flew into the alley, they successfully flew into the trap.
This was what was truly meant by walking right into a trap. This was because the Hidden Shadow Spider had already weaved a large trap across both sides of the alley to prevent aerial attacks. Thus, when the mutated pigeons flew in, they were naturally stuck in the invisible spider web.
By the time the mutated pigeons reacted, it was already too late. They were very fast, and the inertia prevented them from stopping in time. They were already bound by the invisible spider web.
The three girls could not help but laugh. This level of this group of mutated pigeons was generally not high enough. Except for the pigeon king in the lead which had reached Mortal Body Rank-1, the others were still in the category of Mortal Body Rank-0. However, how could they not be happy about an additional windfall for no reason?
However, Ling Yichen thought about it and did not immediately execute this group of mutated pigeons.
This was because there was a unique building among the Insect Race buildings called the Genetic Museum. It could study the genes of
various creatures and implant the results into the genetic sequence of the Insect Race.
[Building]: Genetic Museum
[Level]: Level-1
[Introduction]: A museum that contains all the
genes of the Insect Race.
[Abilities]: Genetic Analysis, Genetic Storage,
Genetic Fusion
[Consumption]: Depends on genes.
[Requirements]: Construction requires 1,000
units of organic matter.
[Time]: 1 day
Ling Yichen looked at the building with envy.
This was because the building’s [Genetic Fusion] ability could implant the genes of the Insect Race into his body.
This group of mutated pigeons had turned blood-red. It was probably because the degree of mutation was a little high. It was a good choice for research.
Then, Ling Yichen asked the Hidden Shadow Spider to wrap up the net of the mutated pigeons and throw them down. This way, he could prevent them from escaping.
Although the group of mutated pigeons were
bound, they did not agree to not resist, so Ling Yichen could only knock them unconscious one
by one.
In fact, if the Hidden Shadow Spider had the paralyzing toxin characteristic, it could save him the process of knocking the mutated pigeons out. Unfortunately, the Hidden Shadow Spider was a non-poisonous spider.
The continuous battle made the Golden-Backed Saber Mantises and the Black
Iron Armors somewhat tired, and their
movements seemed to be a little slow. After all, there were too many zombies, and their stamina was limited.
Moreover, to be honest, their strength was
actually the same as their peers. It did not
mean that the Insect Race was stronger. The only difference in the combat strength between the Insect Race and their opponents was their coordination.
There was no cooperative thinking between zombies. They fought alone. The mutated creatures might be better as it was easy for them to cooperate with each other. It was just that there were few mutated beasts present. Gu Yangyang patted her chest. “Fortunately, we didn’t encounter any Mortal Body Rank-2 zombies or mutated creatures.”
That was right. When faced with this group of Mortal Body Rank-1 zombies and mutated creatures, the five Golden-Backed Saber Mantises could crush them with their strength.
Although there was only a difference of one
rank, the gap was not small. It was not easy to fill the gap.
In addition, there was also the Hidden Shadow
Spider holding the line at the side. From time to time, it would use its [Silk Spit] skill to control the field and interfere. The situation
was great, even if the 20 insects were already a little tired.
Awakened ones could sense the other party’s
realm, unless the level of the other party was too high. For example, Ling Yichen could only see the Mortal Evolution Rank-2 at most, which happened to be one major realm above him. However, sometimes, a jinx might really exist.
Ling Yichen’s ears and eyes were sharp. He could faintly hear the hissing sounds of snakes,
and he did not know which snake it belonged
to!
Upon closer inspection, Ling Yichen confirmed
that there were a total of five mutated snakes hiding nearby!
Where did these five mutated snakes come
from?
Ling Yichen frowned. If these mutated snakes were poisonous, it would be very troublesome. He did not know if his current poison resistance could withstand it. At the same time, his subconscious sense of danger told him that these five snakes were all at Mortal Body
Rank-2!
This sense of danger was similar to an
unverified sixth sense. The five senses of Awakened ones far exceeded that of ordinary people. As for this function that was suspected to be a sixth sense, it was later verified to be a highly degraded “vomeronasal organ” in the human body. When one became an Awakened one, this highly degenerated organ would continuously recover its original function and continuously strengthen. This was why some Awakened ones who had been through life and death battles for a long time could acutely sense and judge the danger around them. Before the apocalypse, it had been proven that snakes could use their vomeronasal organs to hunt and track the prey they had locked onto. Dogs could use their vomeronasal organs to determine the other party’s gender, identity, health status, and other information. They could even determine the other person’s “martial strength.”
Ling Yichen was already very proficient in determining the position of danger based on its sound and his sense of danger during the apocalypse. If it was an ordinary Awakened one, they might not be able to use this sense of
danger to determine the level of the dangerous target for the time being. However, he was different. He had already experienced countless dangers and was exceptionally sensitive to danger.
Ling Yichen instantly locked onto five positions. It was very likely that these five
mutated snakes were in cahoots. If they cooperated with each other, relying on the flexibility of snakes and the unknown poison, he did not know if the 20 insects under him
could stop them.
Then, the nail gun appeared in Ling Yichen’s hand. To deal with a difficult mutated creature like the mutated snake, it would be very dangerous if it got close to him. Ling Yichen did not want to take the risk. It would be best if
he could cause damage from afar.
