That creature was spitting out a split brain! Could it be the so-called Queen?
Lin observed it carefully. This creature looked rather strange. It was over three meters long and had a yellow body. It was oval and fat, with many small tentacles and eight appendages. It looked like a fat spider, but its body wasn't segmented, so it couldn't really be considered a spider. Its mouth was very flat, as if it was stuck to its face. Two rows of sharp teeth were protruding from its mouth, which seemed to be used to crush something.
It looked so strange that it didn't look like a dinosaur at all, nor did it look like a typical arthropod. This creature was lying in front of the cave and spitting out the red crystals with the split brains.
Lin felt that it was a remnant of the Atte species. Speaking of which, this species was rather troublesome. After the main brain died, so many strange things were left behind.
After the other branch-type species died, the remaining soldiers would think about how to 'revive' their brains or produce a new brain. On the other hand, the soldiers of the Atte race were spread out and fought for their own lives.
This creature probably didn't have the ability to think like Li Scorpion. Perhaps it was originally responsible for creating split brains, and after the main brain died, it continued to do so.
Perhaps it would be better to call it a 'Brain-creating Monster'.
The pompom looked at this' Brain-creating Monster '… Lin was thinking about how to deal with it. The pompom was rather small, so should she use poison or paralysis? Or perhaps it would be easier to just let it eat it.
Right, just let it eat it.
Next, the pompom began creating some things inside its body. It mainly used some anti-corrosive shell material to envelop a large number of the miniaturized soldiers. This way, they wouldn't be dissolved. Then, it would drill out of the creature's intestines and slowly invade it.
This method was more efficient, although it wasn't as fun. Of course, Lin could also directly inject the miniaturized soldiers into it, but that would only inject a small amount, and the speed would be slower.
And so, the pompom flew in front of the Brain-creating Monster and pretended to be powerless as it landed in front of it.
Lin could smell a rotten smell coming from the Brain-creating Monster's mouth. It was definitely a carnivorous creature. Some carnivorous creatures would even 'raise' large amounts of carrion fungi in their mouths to attack.
"Gurgle?" The brain monster seemed to have finished vomiting the split brains. Once it stood up, it saw the ball of fur that had fallen before it. It walked forward with confusion, and all eight eyes on its face looked over at the same time …
Lin felt that this creature had something in common with Li Xie. Their faces were similar, but their bodies were completely different.
The brain-monster bent down and touched the fur of the pompom with its short tentacles, as if it was smelling the pompom.
"Coo!"
Lin suddenly felt a sense of 'disgust' from the brain-created monster. It stood up and ran away.
This is very strange … The pompom slowly floated up from the ground. Lin looked at the brain-created monster in confusion. Could it be that the pompom had a smell that it disliked?
It was true that different creatures hated different smells, and Lin didn't know what kind of smell it hated. In that case, it was better to inject it with miniaturized troops.
The pompom quickly chased after the brain-created monster. It didn't run far in the forest before it stopped. Then it lowered its body and moved slowly, as if it was … ambushing its prey.
Lin felt that it was better to see how it lived first. It wouldn't be too late to act later. Lin was actually very interested in how these creatures lived when they changed from a division of labor to a 'wild species'.
The brain-created monster moved stealthily in the forest. It hid its body in the bushes, and its eyes stared at the empty space in front of it. There, Lin saw a white figure …
Was that … the only surviving Skeletal Dragon from before?
The Skeletal Dragon held a wooden spear in its hand and was looking around. Lin felt that it might be leaving its original tribe to find another one. This was one of the habits of Skeletal Dragons.
"Coo …" Seeing that the Skeletal Dragon was getting closer, the brain-created monster slowly moved. However, its movement caused the leaves to rustle. This instantly made the Skeletal Dragon tighten its grip on the wooden spear and become cautious.
The moment the Skeletal Dragon looked over, the brain-created monster rushed out of the bushes. It was so fast that the Skeletal Dragon didn't even have time to stab it with its wooden spear before the brain-created monster bit its head.
"Crack!" Then, there was the sound of a neck bone breaking. The Skeletal Dragon's head was completely bitten off by the brain-created monster. The headless corpse of the Skeletal Dragon fell to the ground. Its limbs were still twitching because of its nerves, but it could no longer stand up …
That was a good hunting technique. The row of teeth in the brain-created monster's upper and lower jaw seemed to be specially grown for decapitation. That was why it could bite off its opponent's head so easily. However … the way this Skeletal Dragon died seemed to be exactly the same as the Skeletal Dragons in the village. They all had their heads bitten off. Could it be … the brain-created monster did that?
That didn't seem very likely. Although the brain-created monster was three meters long, which was much larger than the Skeletal Dragons, it was considered very 'petite' compared to the giant carnivorous dragons. Moreover, the Skeletal Dragons lived in this kind of place and were used to facing the threat of all kinds of giant creatures. How did the brain-created monster annihilate an entire tribe of Skeletal Dragons?
Although it might be due to the effects of the illusion, since it could create split brains, the White Skeleton Dragons in that community clearly showed signs of a fight.
Then, the brain-created monster swallowed the head. Then, it did something very wasteful. It left the corpse and walked away.
How could it be so wasteful? The head only had so little energy. Was it satisfied after eating it? The corpse was such a big piece of meat, yet it didn't want it? Sure enough, it was something that only a species that divided its work would do. Its hunting success rate should be very high. Otherwise, it wouldn't be able to survive if it was so wasteful …
Right, could it be that the brain-created monster didn't eat pompoms because … pompoms didn't have heads?
It was possible that the Yat race created this species so that it could eat the brains of other creatures.
But why did it eat brains? … Of course, it was to create a brain!
So that was it! That would make sense! The brain-created monster relied on eating the brains of other creatures to create a split brain? Although this was just a speculation, it seemed very reliable. Of course, the specifics of how it was created was still unknown. Or perhaps the creation of a split brain had nothing to do with its love of eating brains. Was there another reason for eating brains?
In any case, the brain-created monster probably didn't have any other reason for doing this. It was just following some instructions left to it by the mastermind. Even if the mastermind was dead, it didn't have an individual personality like Li Xie, so it continued to carry out these instructions.
However, this order was now over. It would be extinct along with the Yat race!
The pompoms stretched out a few tentacles and aimed at the brain-created monster below. Each tentacle contained countless small needles. The small needles contained miniaturized soldiers that would invade the target and eventually devour it!
Whoosh! With a soft sound, the flying needles shot out at an extremely fast speed, flying towards the brain-created monster's back.
Whoosh. The moment the flying needles shot out, Lin felt a subtle brainwave signal. This was …
In the next moment, the brain-creating monster suddenly took a step forward, and the needles missed and stabbed into the ground.
This was very strange. The brain-created monster could actually sense these flying needles and dodge them? This was very interesting.
The brain-created monster was currently looking at the pompoms in the sky. The pompoms were also preparing for a second round of shooting. The moment the flying needles flew out, the brain-created monster suddenly took a few steps back. After dodging the flying needles, it immediately turned and fled into the depths of the forest.
As expected, it had a very strong sense of perception.
The pompoms immediately caught up with the brain-created monster. This thing ran very fast with its eight limbs, but it had been running in a straight line, so the pompoms could easily catch up with it with their gaseous tentacles.
However, it wasn't that easy to hit it. The moment the pompoms shot out the flying needles, the brain-created monster would always immediately move to the left and right to dodge.
Thus, Lin decided … to pounce on it directly!
Looking at the running brain-created monster, the pompoms sped up and rushed forward. At the same time, they stretched out a large number of tentacles. Their target was the brain-created monster's back!
Coo! The brain-created monster seemed to know that the pompoms were about to pounce on it. It suddenly lowered its body and jumped, directly hitting the pompoms with its back. This instantly sent the pompoms flying. After the brain-created monster landed, it sped up again. Its figure instantly disappeared into the forest.
Lin saw that the brain-created monster had escaped far away and had the pompoms stop.
There was no need to chase it anymore. When it hit the monster just now, one of the pompoms' tentacles had successfully injected some miniature troops into the brain-created monster's back. Now, they were drilling into the brain-created monster's body.
The brain-created monster's skin was quite thick, but it wasn't hard enough. It was mainly a layer of shell. Lin was using a drill type troop, the Drill Explorer. It would take some time to drill into the brain-created monster. The pompoms only needed to slowly fly to the target …
Lin noticed that the brain-created monster had stopped. It seemed that after running for a distance and realizing that the pompoms didn't catch up to it, it would stop to rest.
The pompoms changed color and hid in the surroundings. They slowly floated to where the brain-created monster stopped …
However … after arriving, Lin didn't see the brain-created monster. Instead, she saw a layer of yellow skin on the ground …
That thing actually shed its skin and ran away? Did it know that Lin had injected troops into its body? This was really … What was this?
Lin suddenly noticed that under a tree not far ahead, the brain-created monster's fat body was constantly struggling. Its entire body was bound by a large number of vines. These vines were constantly tightening around it, causing it to groan in pain.
It seemed to be a type of trap plant. So that's how it was. The brain-created monster wanted to continue running after shedding its skin, but it was caught by the trap plant?
Perhaps the brain-created monster was very sensitive to moving targets, but it was difficult to detect stationary targets. Since it couldn't move, then it would obediently … be decomposed! Heavens.
