Chaos Crown

Chapter 354, Mind Flayer Tadpoles!

Huge conch-hull ship above the sky.

The internal structure of the mind flayer's creation is different from the sophisticated giant ship structure imagined by humans, or the ancient structure of the elven empire navy that is simple but full of magic everywhere.

The interior of the conch-hulled warship is full of biomass-like flesh and blood tissue. Every appliance and cabin is connected together by tissues similar to blood vessels and muscles. Under the seemingly solid appearance, there is a pulse like life. Constantly gasping.

Aaron stared coldly at the hall he was in. There were some mind flayers here. They were manipulating a device like an arm, connecting different silk threads together, and pressing the buttons on the console at the same time. The mysterious mind connection It will prompt the conch ship to operate according to their ideas.

The race of mind flayers has always been known for their mystery. As mentioned earlier, if mind flayers had a glorious era, it would have been a long time ago. According to the description in the book Elminster gave him, the mind flayers The mind flayer considers other races to be their food. For the mind flayer, it has no scruples to plan to conquer all other races, gather countless slaves, and devour their brains.Biochemicals and hormones found only in brain tissue are the basic source of nutrition for adult mind flayers.

Are mind flayers evil?Undoubtedly yes, since they are wired to feed on the brains of other intelligent beings.

Are mind flayers evil?Not in their own eyes, but in the eyes of the mind flayers, we just want to survive and have a full stomach, what kind of crime is it to survive?What kind of crime is it for the reproduction and inheritance of the race?
Therefore, people cannot understand each other because of ethnicity, geographical environment, and religious beliefs, let alone between races.

But anyway, the mind flayers had caused so much death and loss that Aaron had no reason to spare them.

Forgiveness is not the time to use it.

"Eleanor, let's do it!"

Aaron opened up his perception. He felt that some mind flayers outside were studying the passenger ship that had just been plundered. The hall was burning everywhere, because the explosion caused by being forced into the abyss by the head of chaos made colorful Tzeentch flames everywhere. Spread, at this point no mind flayers noticed that Aaron and Eleanor were hiding behind the broken mast on the deck.

"I see." Eleanor hammered a sword in her hand, and the pastor was a little nervous: "Aaron, be careful,"

Following Aaron's movements, Tzeentch's Frisbee appeared out of thin air, and colorful chaotic flames scattered along the jagged bottom of Tzeentch's Frisbee.

Swish!
Pfft!
The octopus head flew into the sky, and the dull sound of falling to the ground sounded one after another. The figure of Aaron standing on Tzeentch's Frisbee appeared like a ghost, and every time he circled, he took the lives of at least two mind flayers. He was rampaging in the hall, arrogant , all mind flayers have no power to resist.

Tzeentch's Canon of Fate was suspended in the air, and every spell released by the mind flayers in the hall was recorded on it, and none of the spells were triggered.

Tzeentch's power is the biggest nemesis for mind flayers, a race that is only good at using mind and magic abilities!

It didn't take long for the mind flayers in the hall to be emptied by Aaron, and Eleanor's just-right silent magic power enveloped the nearby gate, and the mind flayers on the other side knew nothing about the situation here.

The shape of the door separating the salvage hall from the cabin on the other side is very strange. Compared to a door, it is more like an excretory opening closed by a sphincter in the excretory tissue. Layers of muscle tissue seal the entrance to other cabins.

The power of chaos in Aaron's mind swept across the entire cabin, and after confirming that there were no other living mind flayers, he turned his attention back to this huge cabin, which is about ten meters high, and every corner is covered by Covered in thick biomass, it looks soft and densely covered with blood vessels and muscular outlines, which makes Aaron feel more like standing inside the body of a giant beast than in space that can travel through the multiverse Among the ships.

The damage caused by the explosion caused by the head of chaos before was huge, and the flesh and blood walls of the cabin were cracked. As Aaron judged, these gaps are not high-tech, but flesh and blood tissues. Some parts are obviously It was blown apart, and a large amount of pink and purple blood flowed out continuously, forming a sticky mess.

The strange sense of dislocation made Aaron feel very small, and he immediately turned his attention to Eleanor.

The pastor carefully avoided those dirty stickies. Although there was curiosity in her eyes, it was more disgusting towards mind flayers: "This is the first time I have seen mind flayers. Ms. Silver Star has learned that there are such creatures, don't they all live in the dark region?"

"Yes, since the mind flayer empire was destroyed by the uprising of the gith people, many mind flayers moved to the Underdark, but don't think that the mind flayers don't have a space fleet anymore. In fact, the elf empire navy The High Command is constantly monitoring the movements of the mind flayer space fleet."

At this time, Ba Ruier finally appeared, and the fat sun elf said with a silly smile: "Mind flayers are a very interesting species. In history, they were sometimes hostile to us and sometimes allied with us. If these creatures were not because of It is unacceptable for us elves to eat the brains of intelligent creatures, otherwise there may be room for communication between the two races because of their psionic abilities."

"Now, Your Excellency has seen it, the biological technology of the mind flayer." Ba Ruier said with a thief: "Do you have any experience to share with your magic consultant?"

"... Experience?" Aaron raised his eyebrows: "Barriel, you know when to show up."

"Doesn't this show that you and Ms. Eleanor are strong?" The sun elf smiled cheaply and wretchedly: "It's almost enough, your salary is not worth it for me to deal with mind flayers, do you expect a man with a monthly salary of 12 gold coins? Is your night watchman going to deal with Amn's shadow thieves for you? How much money do you do?"

"You are always so frank." Aaron said with a smile, agreeing with Barrell's approach.

Elf this day!Eleanor frowned, but Su Lun's teachings were like this, she would not reprimand Barrell for lack of "public morality" like Lathander believers.

"Your Excellency, you need to be careful, there must be a perfect mind flayer on this ship." Barrell shared the information with Aaron.

Like elves, mind flayers also have higher-level subspecies. According to Barrell, this type of mind flayers is called "perfect mind flayers". The difference between perfect mind flayers and ordinary mind flayers , as big as the gap between gods and most mortal things.They are the cruelest, most insidious, and most powerful of their kind.Their psychic abilities are given the highest ratings by the elves.

Perfect mind flayers usually live separately from their lesser brethren, and if a perfect mind flayer's approximate address is known, ordinary mind flayers will flock to it, in a constant attempt to learn from the perfect mind flayer, and take its head Used to strengthen the mind flayers' masterminds, they will quickly form a group of at least a hundred mind flayers, closely surrounding the perfect mind flayers.

Sometimes perfect mind flayers will also join some powerful organizations, using power to help mind flayers expand their society.

"How many living people are left in the passenger ship?" Aaron continued to ask.

"Not many, I put them in one place, and Ms. Charlotte is trying to teleport them away." Barrell motioned the two female drow to come forward: "As for the others, I think the two ladies Might be able to help us a little bit."

"Hi, Your Excellency Aaron-Salian, I am Vanessa, and she is Kafka." The two female drow introduced themselves to Aaron: "We are the messengers of the Dark Maiden, it is a pleasure to meet you You, your name spreads far and wide even in the Underdark."

"Welcome, the Dark Maiden and the Silver Virgin are good friends, and I believe we can be friends too." Aaron nodded.

Among the two female drows, Vanessa is slightly shorter. She has silver ponytail hair and wears simple close-fitting leather armor and a leather jacket, revealing her navel, leather pants and boots underneath. The legs are extremely slender, and the blue eyes are shining brightly, with an awe-inspiring heroic spirit.

Kafka is taller. Unlike Vanessa, her silver hair is dyed red at the end, forming a gradient-like color. Although she has the same dark skin as carbon, from the perspective of facial features, Kafka is Ka is definitely older than Vanessa, and she is also more mature and glamorous. She wears a very serious cloak and serious mithril scale armor on her upper body, but her legs wrapped in black net stockings are exposed under the armor skirt on her lower body. leg.

The two drows each carry a musical instrument behind their backs, Vanessa carries a lute, from which one can feel the breath of magic power, and Kafka carries a harp, obviously, they all have similar chants. Bard abilities, and possibly a side job.

"There is no need to say superfluous words. Please temporarily order us what to do." Kafka said proactively: "It is better to get rid of the current predicament first."

"Yes, please order, Your Excellency." Vanessa was somewhat resistant to this order, but as Kafka showed a warning expression, the female drow temporarily chose to obey.

"It's very simple." Aaron nodded, and a bloodthirsty light appeared on the face of the Son of Chaos.

"Let's burn this conch ship to ashes and, by the way, claim the mind and treasure of the legendary mind flayer!"

…………

"Hey~ Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka ~"

The door of the sphincter-shaped biological cabin opened, and a powerful mind flayer standing in front of the hatching pool was standing in front of the pool, watching the mind flayer tadpoles inside.

Mind flayers are parthenogenetic creatures. They can lay eggs twice in their lifetime, and the eggs will be put into the hatching pool in groups. Under the special brain pool environment, the mind flayer eggs will hatch , giving birth to a large number of mind flayer tadpoles.

Only one in a thousand mind flayer tadpoles can survive, and the remaining mind flayer tadpoles will become the nourishment for the mastermind deep in the hatching pool. The growth of mind flayer tadpoles will last for ten years, from a slender pink meat The tadpoles gradually transform into a small octopus with tentacles and sharp mouthparts. Adult mind flayers will send these mind flayer tadpoles into the ears or eyes of a helpless humanoid. The tadpoles will quickly eat Lose the gray matter of the brains of humanoid creatures, and then insert their tentacles into their cerebral cortex tissues, gradually merge with the brainstem, and gradually obliterate the personality and soul of the host.

After a few days, a new mind flayer is born.

So it doesn't seem to make much sense to use human morality to criticize the special race of mind flayers. In the eyes of these multiverse slave tyrants, everything they do is for survival and reproduction. They think they have nothing to blame Well, in terms of etiquette alone, mind flayers are even very elegant.

But in the eyes of other races, mind flayers are out-and-out demons.

This mind flayer is watching the breeding of mind flayer tadpoles in the hatching tank.

The mind flayer's hatching pool is also called the brain pool. It has always been the core and the most valued place in the mind flayer society, because the hatching pool is not only used to hatch mind flayer tadpoles, but also the brain of the mind flayer. The deepest part of the pool is responsible for absorbing a large number of dead mind flayer eggs and mind flayer tadpoles as a source of nutrition.

At this moment, he was immersing his soul in the orders of the mastermind.

The mind flayer mastermind wants to get an artifact—the crown of Karthus. The mastermind learned from another mind flayer mastermind, Lich, that Karthus, the former great arcanist of Netheril, killed himself All the knowledge and lifelong magic research results have been injected into this crown. If the mastermind can find this crown, it can advance towards the demigod.

Even, if the rumors are true, maybe this crown still retains the twelve-ring super-ring magic that was banished to the end of the multiverse by the goddess of magic-Karthus's apotheosis!

All the mind of this mind flayer is immersed in the master brain's grand plan and hegemony, and he doesn't even realize that behind him, on a thick blue book, the burning magic eye symbolizing the god of wisdom is watching the brain in the pool .

Suddenly, the mastermind in the hatching pool realized something, and in an instant it sent out strong spiritual energy fluctuations, trying to remind the mind flayer standing in front of the pool.

A higher level of telepathy!
However, this telepathy and other telepathy can't be transmitted at all. The only thing it can do is to leave chaotic words written with the blood of demons on Tzeentch's Fate Ceremony!
Therefore, the mind flayer didn't wake up until the moment Tzeentch's frisbee approached. Before it could turn around, the sharp moon blade had already penetrated its chest from behind!

Pfft!

Muddy blood splashed into the hatching pool, and the mind flayer tadpoles in the pool were shaking non-stop, and the ring-shaped fangs in their mouthparts let out sharp screams.

The octopus glanced feebly at the Dark Moon Sword protruding from its chest. Its eyes were a little dazed, and it only felt that its own psionic power was rapidly draining. His psionic bondage seemed to be gone, and he suddenly remembered who he really was before he became a mind flayer.

However, this time was only for a short moment, and in the next second, darkness swallowed everything about him.

Aaron drew out the blade and watched the mind flayer fall. He saw a circle of breeding pods around him, each of which contained a humanoid creature. Obviously, their fate was to wait for the mind flayer tadpoles to mature , these cute octopuses move their tentacles along the eye sockets or ears and crawl into the head, eat all the gray matter of the brain, be pierced into the brainstem by the tentacles, and transform into a new mind flayer.

Aaron didn't know whether he saved these people or let them lose a chance to "glorious evolution", but he had made up his mind to get them out of the fate of becoming mind flayers.

"mortal."

A psychic communication suddenly entered his mind.

Hatchery?
"Mortal, quickly hand over the Karthus crown in your body!"

"Heart is better than matter, and only a small part of our inner potential is exploited. Within your species, only a few individuals are now able to manipulate psionic power."

"Now, hand over the crown to me, and I can teach you how to manipulate the great power we are born with."

Aaron laughed, why did a mind flayer mastermind come to teach him?

Are you worthy?
No one understands psionics better than Chaos!

"Who asked you?"
