After the Humerus Dragon's exploration team set off, the Emerald Dragons were still fighting against the Scorpions.
After Black Pepper killed the brain-creating monster in the pyramid, Lin also discovered a few underground tunnels that led to deeper underground rooms. The remaining standing scorpions were hiding in those tunnels. Some of them were still alive, while others were already dead. Most of them were suffocated to death, and the ones that were still alive were quite weak.
In the end, Black Pepper killed all of them and captured some of the weaker Scorpions alive. Perhaps he wanted to use them as slaves.
Lin felt that it was unlikely that the Standing Scorpions were enslaved. They would not be obedient after being beaten a few times like the Skeletal Dragons. As of now, Lin had not discovered any information about the appearance of the Brain-Created Monster in the pyramid. So now, she could only use her previous conjecture. The Brain-Created Monster accidentally ran into the pyramid without the Standing Scorpions.
The Emerald Dragons planned to occupy the pyramid as one of their strongholds. Lin noticed that Susumi had not only brought her troops, but also many Emerald Dragons who were good at construction. They were learning how to build the pyramid.
The pyramid looked magnificent, but in fact, the space utilization of this kind of building was too low. It would be better to build it with other shapes.
Susumi's troops were scattered. The Viper Dragon Knights that came to rescue the pyramid were only a part of the temporary force. Susumi led more troops to attack the other pyramids.
The distribution of the Scorpions' pyramids was strange. Some of them were arranged in rows, while others stood alone in the forest. Lin did not know why they were built in such a strange way, but it made it easier for the Emerald Dragons to attack them.
Lin's spy was now with Black Pepper's troops, and they were on their way to meet up with Susumi's troops. Susumi was said to have brought their new large weapon over. Lin wanted to see how it was done.
"Ahem!" "What's wrong? Commander! "
There was a sudden commotion in front of the troops. Lin walked forward to take a look. Black Pepper seemed to have bumped into a tree because of it.
Black Pepper did not ride the Viper Dragon. He was following the troops on the ground. Most of the Viper Dragons were led by the Emerald Dragons to meet up with Susumi's troops, while Black Pepper remained on the ground as the commander of the troops.
"I'm fine …" Black Pepper touched his head and continued forward.
Lin felt that there was something strange about the black pepper. Of course, its previous behavior was normal. But ever since … That's right, after being bitten by the brain-creating monster, he became abnormal.
Lin remembered that the brain-monster wasn't poisonous, but Black Pepper was definitely affected by something. Perhaps she would need to examine it.
With that in mind, Lin squeezed into the crowd and slowly approached the black pepper. Then, she poked it when it wasn't paying attention.
"Ga!" Black Pepper screamed the moment it was poked. It turned to look at the spy and asked, "Why did you touch me?"
It was strange. Normal Emerald Dragons would not be able to feel Lin's poke, but Black Pepper seemed to have become more sensitive for some reason.
"Nothing," Lin replied simply. Black Pepper noticed that the Emerald Dragons were looking at them. After all, it was normal for them to bump into one another. Her panic was rather strange.
Black Pepper noticed that it had overreacted, so it immediately turned around and continued to walk away.
At this point, Lin's miniatures had already entered Black Pepper's body through its veins. The first thing they should do now was to examine its wound before moving on to other places.
Several thousand seconds later, after Lin probed many parts of his body, she found that … everything was normal.
Black Pepper's blood was not poisonous, and the wound it was bitten by the brain-creating monster had basically healed. Everything seemed normal, but …
"Ga!" Black Pepper bumped into the tree again. It did not seem to notice the tree in front of it.
The surrounding Emerald Dragons looked at it strangely. Black Pepper seemed to have realized that there was something wrong with it. Seeing that the sky was darkening, Black Pepper ordered the surrounding team to stop and rest.
Lin had also examined Black Pepper's eyes. There was no problem there, which meant that … Black Pepper's brain might be affected. However, the brain was not easy to examine, so Lin wanted to observe it more.
The Emerald Dragons built some simple huts and prepared to rest for the night. Black Pepper seemed to be tired. After giving some orders to keep watch, it fell asleep.
Lin kept an eye on it. As the night slowly darkened, Black Pepper showed a pained expression. It tossed and turned, and Lin knew that it was having a nightmare.
Nightmares were a common phenomenon. Usually, creatures with high mental stress would have nightmares. However, Black Pepper's nightmare was obviously caused by something else …
"Ga!" All of a sudden, Black Pepper shrieked and jumped up, startling the sleeping Emerald Dragons. The Emerald Dragons immediately picked up their weapons and looked around. When they realized that nothing had happened, they looked at Black Pepper curiously.
Black Pepper's eyes were filled with fear as it scanned its surroundings. It glanced at the emerald dragons around it and slowly calmed down. Then, it fell back asleep without saying a word.
Lin realized that Black Pepper's strange behavior was just the beginning.
Later on, Black Pepper became more energetic. It did not bump into trees as easily. However, Lin noticed that it would have nightmares every time it slept. It would wake up with a start, scaring the Emerald Dragons around it.
If Lin could become a stronger brain-reader, she might be able to discover what Black Pepper was dreaming about. However, it was not easy to do so in the current state of being a spy.
Sometimes, Black Pepper would say some strange words in his sleep. Although most of them were vague words, there was one word that was clear, and that was "East".
… Is there something in the East?
Lin noticed that Black Pepper's brain circulatory system was not normal. However, it was not a problem. It was obviously affected by the brain-created monster.
Lin remembered that the White Skeleton Dragon was affected by the split-brain and began to build strange buildings. Did the Emerald Dragons have to be bitten to be affected? It was an interesting phenomenon … but it also proved that brain-created monsters were dangerous creatures.
