Chapter 168

I was disappointed and wanted to leave here. My foot stepped on the sludge. The sludge was separated to both sides. Suddenly, I saw some small star animals like earthworms in the sludge.

They drilled out of the sludge, and then soon got into the sludge and disappeared. They moved quickly in the sludge. Before I could see it clearly, they had lost their trace.

Are these star beasts that I have never seen living in this quagmire? Curious, I reached out to dig up the sludge and caught an earthworm like star beast that had no time to escape.

The captured earthworm like star beast wanted to escape, but after leaving the sludge, its action became very slow and there was no way to escape.

I carefully looked at the star beast and carefully recalled all kinds of star beast atlas I had seen in my head.

A moment later, I had a flash in my mind and suddenly thought of a spirit beast that had disappeared for a long time.

I read relevant records in a book, which said that this kind of star beast I caught.

This star beast is called eudemon. It is a star beast with changing shape as it grows.

Like a butterfly, different stages have different forms. The origin of the name eudemon is precisely because its form is constantly changing.

Eudemon is not aggressive. It is a low-level star beast. It feeds on small insects in the sludge and is at the low end of the food chain.

They used to be everywhere in the new world.

When Eudemons were young, they were like earthworms. When they grow up, they will become like fish.

Adult Eudemons are birds with wings.

Adult eudemon is the most delicious food. Raw and cooked food are excellent delicacies. It is a very famous delicacy in the new world.

It is precisely because they are very delicious food, loved by humans and the vast majority of carnivorous star beasts, endlessly captured, and have been extinct for hundreds of years.

I also read about Eudemons, saying that the more important reason why humans catch Eudemons is that adult Eudemons secrete a white colloidal substance on their body surface. This colloidal substance is a natural elixir that can prolong human life.

This white gelatinous substance is named life prolonging cream by humans. It is said that taking one or two of this life prolonging cream can make an ordinary person live ten more years.

If it is a warrior, because it can be absorbed more thoroughly, this number has reached an amazing 20 years.

For human beings, ten or twenty years are very precious. It is difficult to buy and find thousands of gold.

Under normal circumstances, the life span of human beings is only about a hundred years. Even if a martial artist reaches a high level of cultivation, he will have an additional life span of up to several decades.

Taking the life prolonging cream will add ten or twenty years of life at once. Anyone will try their best to get the life prolonging cream.

So many years ago, when humans discovered this, they began to catch Eudemons endlessly, want to raise them, and get longevity ointment from them when they grow up.

Over time, no matter where the Eudemons are, they are all captured by humans, and we can no longer find a wild Eudemons.

The Eudemons kept by humans, I don't know what's going on, slowly degenerated. After they multiplied for several generations, they slowly stopped breeding, and no new Eudemons were born.

Eudemons will also grow old and die. Therefore, on the premise that no new Eudemons are born, there will be one fewer Eudemons in human captivity for each death, and there will be no last one, completely disappearing into human sight.

If I hadn't read many books before, I really couldn't recognize them at once this time, let alone know so much.

I accidentally found a eudemon that has been extinct for hundreds of years. I was ecstatic and knew that I had the same good luck as the last time I found an Immortal Jade fruit in the endless swamp.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It's a god given opportunity. It's a compensation for saving everyone. I feel at ease and take it back to myself.

I hurried to catch some Eudemons and go back to raise them, but then I thought of the current situation and temporarily changed my attention.

If I catch these rare Eudemons and take them with me at this time, I may be found by others.

At that time, I will have to share these illusory * * with you, or be taken away by the national court directly.

I don't want to share my discovery with those strangers. I also want to raise a eudemon so that my parents can live longer.

I also think of my parents and relatives in Binhu village, as well as Zhou Shuangyin and Zhou Xiaoying. They are also my relatives and the objects I must care about.

As for these people around me, it's OK to help or simply rescue them at ordinary times. It's too early for me to treat them as my relatives now.

People are selfish, and I am no exception, so I changed my mind and decided not to take these Eudemons away for the time being.

But it doesn't seem appropriate to leave them here. The unknown star beasts like birds I saw just now will eat them all.

I was in a dilemma for a moment. I looked at the eudemon that kept twisting in my hand. It was kind of chicken ribs.

Wang Jingshi plotted against me. Unexpectedly, I found a chance to leave the army and found a rare treasure here. I don't know if I'm lucky or if God expects me and deliberately gives me these good things.

But now I can't just take these Eudemons away. I have to stay here for at least nine days. It's really easy to be found by others with these Eudemons.

Moreover, I can't take these Eudemons with me for nine days. They either die of thirst or starve.

Juvenile Eudemons that leave the sludge can't survive for long.

I racked my brains and thought for a long time before I thought of the best way, that is to recall the maned pig and let the maned pig continue to stay here.

In this way, Eudemons will not starve because they follow me, and no other star beasts dare to hurt them, killing two birds with one stone.

Before that, I want to use the beast control decision again. First, I will take these immature Eudemons into my arms.

I don't want to protect them. When I came to take them away, I found that I couldn't do it at all.

Only the accepted star beast can obediently follow me out of here, which is more convenient than direct capture.

These Eudemons that had been with the maned pig beast were guaranteed. I was proud of my idea, so I quickly returned to the side where the xuangui beast was located.
