Chapter 995

What about the agreed "useless thing"?!

It's just hatching. Angel said it was a suspected mother!

Kanter only felt that the inner defense line was like a collapsed snow wall, peeling off a little, revealing a mottled old heart.

"Mother worm? How could this be possible! The mother worm died out earlier than the deformed soft worm. There can be no fish that escaped the net." Cantor's dry road.

"But if it's not a mother, why can it lay eggs and hatch?" Angel wondered.

Spawning and hatching?!

Kanter only felt that the corners of his mouth began to twitch. "You're mistaken. Maybe it's not a soft worm."

Angel was more puzzled: "but didn't the adult give me this egg?"

Cantor was speechless. Although his heart was extremely resistant to the fact that he might have sent out a "mother's egg", he couldn't help looking into the insect nest.

At this sight, he was completely confused.

He had not yet looked deep into the depths. Just seeing the layers of soft insect bodies outside, he had already determined a fact in his heart.

At first, he gave angel only a few eggs, but look at the body of this soft worm, at least dozens!

There is no mother to reproduce new eggs, which can't be explained at all!

When he saw the hall filled with "snot monster" deep in the insect nest, he immediately closed his eyes and began to scold himself for mistaking pearls for fish.

This is the mother of the soft worm!

As like as two peas he saw, the data he recorded is exactly the same.

"Lord Cantor, isn't this really a mother worm?" Angel asked again, as if fate opened a bow and shot an arrow again, hitting Kant's chest.

Cantor resisted the urge to spit blood and said hard, "this... This is really... A mother worm."

"Really?!" Angel's eyes lit up.

"Really." Kanter felt extremely uncomfortable at the bottom of his heart, but he still had to maintain the demeanor of his elders, and even praised him against his heart: "you raised... Very good."

Looking at Angel holding the insect nest in surprise, Kanter felt that his wandering heart was blown by the rain and wind again, and was run over with his feet again and again.

He was really blind! Cantor couldn't help blaming himself.

However, after the drama at the bottom of his heart, Cantor returned to reality. Is he really blind? Carefully recall the situation when he got the insect eggs. In fact, he checked them carefully.

Even gave it to other wizards for identification. The final result was that it was an ordinary soft insect egg, and its vitality was not too strong. The only thing worth mentioning is that the insect nest is very good, and there is even the smell of mother insects.

Is it because the smell of mother insects contained in the insect nest has promoted the hatching of eggs, and even a mother insect has appeared?

Cantor personally doesn't believe it.

He took the nest again from angel and was ready to observe it carefully.

When he got serious, many details that had been ignored before were brought back to the case: "Why are there so many soft insects around? Why do soft insects keep in front of an invisible boundary, like natural enemies opposite?"

For these two questions, angel said awkwardly, "in fact, it's because I have a dream weaver ant who likes doves occupying Magpies' nests."

Angel's eloquence gave Cantor a general idea. But he heard for the first time that weaver ants eat soft worms?

"Although the dream weaving ant is not a precious thing, it has been extinct for many years. Unexpectedly, you still have one." After Kanter said this, he continued to look inside the insect nest.

This time, he found another important clue.

The inside of the insect nest was full of the smell of energy and blood essence. He searched carefully, and finally saw the storage Hall of Axel's blood essence on one side of the hall.

"This is the wizard level Warcraft blood essence?"

"Yes, both dream weaver ants and soft insects like the blood essence of Warcraft. Before, dream weaver ants also put the blood essence under the eggs of soft insects, which makes the eggs of soft insects hatch."

Now, Cantor is even more confused. Weaver ants not only eat soft insects, but also raise eggs?

Moreover, Kanter also knew that some Warcraft blood has abundant energy and is suitable for raising magic insects. Therefore, he also raised these eggs with Warcraft blood essence, but never absorbed any eggs. Therefore, it was identified by some of his friends that the vitality of the eggs was not high.

He didn't make soft insect eggs different with Warcraft blood essence. Why did Angel do it?

Is it the relationship between weaver ants or the essence of blood?

Cantor shamelessly asked angel for a drop of blood essence. Looking at the blood gas crystal in his hand, Cantor hesitated and put it in his mouth.

In an instant, a powerful force of life flowed out of the blood essence.

After this kind of life force surged out, it immediately formed a situation of opposition to Cantor's own vitality. Although Kanter successfully rejected this life force in the end, at the beginning of defense, the explosive force of that life almost broke his defense line. It can be seen how powerful the energy contained in the blood essence is!

What's more, it's just a drop of blood essence.

Cantor's eyes flashed a strange color, and then carefully explored the information revealed in the blood essence. After a while, Cantor's face suddenly changed.

There is strong vitality in the blood essence, which is the most rare in the world of Warcraft blood essence he has seen.

Although for his wizard level life, this drop of blood essence is like highly toxic. But for ordinary people, or primary life, the vitality in it is enough to keep people alive forever.

In other words, relying on this drop of blood essence is enough to give insect eggs sustained and long-lasting vitality.

In this way, it is very likely to revive the eggs and hatch.

Moreover, Cantor felt an extremely secret strange smell in this drop of blood essence. This smell was very obscure, a bit like the smell he smelled in some medical schools when Cantor was still a mortal.

Cantor couldn't help asking, "what kind of Warcraft's blood essence is this?"

"I don't know, but it's said to be the blood essence of a snake."

Looking at angel's wandering eyes, how could Kanter not know that angel was lying. However, the snake's blood essence should be true.

Cantor didn't ask. After all, he was an apprentice of an old friend, and he himself valued angel's potential.

"The effect of Warcraft blood essence on primary life is very good, and it can even keep people alive forever." Cantor sighed.

After hearing this, angel remembered that Axel's blood essence had maintained the life of Duoluo for thousands of years, and even his function maintained youth.

Thinking of this, angel couldn't help thinking of Jon.

Is Axel's blood essence useful to Jon? Maybe you can ask when Sanders comes back.

"The vitality in the blood essence of Warcraft may indeed let the eggs hatch, but I think it's still a little worse to let the eggs hatch the mother." Kanter looked at the corpses everywhere outside the insect nest, but his heart moved: "maybe it's the dream weaving ant that has played some role in the eggs of the soft insect."

Do weaver ants still have a promoting effect on insect eggs? Angel looked at Kanter suspiciously.

"According to some records I have seen, although the mother insect is responsible for the reproduction of the whole insect population, its fertility is actually affected by the outside world. Generally speaking, the mother insect will not produce in large quantities, which will consume a lot of energy."

Kanter was thinking while explaining. Moreover, with the rapid rotation of thinking, many places that I can't figure out are more reasonable and more smooth.

"However, due to the emergence of the 'natural enemy' of the weaver ant, the mother insect will multiply in large numbers and avoid being threatened by consumption war."

When Kanter said this, angel understood in an instant.

Like a link in the ecological chain, they are hostile, but from a certain level, they also promote each other.

Perhaps, the birth of the mother insect was also the result of the "feeding of eggs" by the weaver ant. Because at the beginning, the swarm knew that soft insects could not deal with weaver ants, and their birth would only become the nourishment of weaver ants.

Unwilling to die at birth.

Therefore, it may be stimulated by some hormone or pheromone, resulting in the mutation of one of the eggs.

The mutant egg is the later mother.

This can also explain what happens later. When the mother insect knows that she is an "egg", the dream weaving ant will not move it, but raise it, so it is reluctant to hatch. He has been absorbing akso's blood essence to accumulate strength.

Once hatched, it immediately competed with the weaver ant.

Until now.

In fact, there are two preconditions for the establishment of the whole relationship. The first is the abundance of vitality.

At the beginning, angel got a whole coffin of Axel's blood essence, which solved the problem of vitality. It also allows the mother insect to have no worries when laying eggs in large numbers.

The second premise is the number of natural enemies.

If there are many weaver ants, the swarm knows that it has no hope of winning, so it will not give birth to a mother. Even if we take a step back, the mother insect really hatches, it will not lay a large number of eggs, because there is no hope of victory.

These two premises eventually led to the hatching of eggs and the smooth birth of females.

After realizing the truth, Kanter did not feel sorry for himself, because even if the eggs stayed with him, they could not hatch like angel, or even hatch a mother.

After all, it was Engel's route that led to this result.

"I once inadvertently learned the name of a legendary great wizard of the summoning department. His name is' the heart of the swarm". I used to scoff at it. How can the swarm have a heart? Now I think, maybe this is the heart of the swarm. As long as there is a glimmer of hope for survival, his heart will never die. "

After Kanter sighed, his eyes looked at Angel more gently.

Although he was also jealous of angel's good fortune, it can be seen from this that his original vision was not wrong. Angel not only had high potential, but also placed his fortune here.

"Cough, angel."

Angel looked at it suspiciously.

Kanter said with a smile: "speaking of you, you people with the same illusions and demons, you haven't been to Lilith's house. When you get back to the wizard world, you might as well come to Lilith's house for a period of time? Just right, you and Qili can also cultivate feelings."

Angel shivered. Why did she talk to Kantor and talk to Qili from time to time?

"Well, I'll see it then." Angel said vaguely, and then quickly changed the topic: "Lord Cantor, since this is a mother worm, can it give birth to a deformed soft worm?"
