Apocalyptic life from scratch

Chapter 605 The Escape Plan

"Dream?"

Kong Zhe scratched his head, he couldn't imagine what it would be like to be immersed in a dream forever.Just simply sleeping peacefully like those people in the residential area?Or do you want to die like a person in prison?
"Don't get me wrong, immersing yourself in a dream is not as easy as you think."

Susanna shook her head: "In the dream, the nightmare-eating tapir is an existence equivalent to the creation god. It can control your dreams at will, control the people around you, and what you experience. As long as it is in the dream, it is your master. .And your body in the real world will be reduced to a thoughtless puppet. It will only work mechanically and tirelessly. Until the day when your vitality is exhausted, your body will disappear directly, and your spirit will be assimilated into a nightmare in the form of a dream. part."

Kong Zhe frowned, isn't this worse than those rabbit people?

Shaking his head, he then asked, "Then is this an adult or a juvenile?"

"Well... the appetite of young nightmare-eating tapirs is very small, it is impossible to eat so many dreams..."

Susanna thought about it, and said with some uncertainty: "This should be an adult."

"should?"

Kong Zhe was taken aback, Susanna rarely spoke in such an uncertain tone.

"Yes, it should be..."

Suzanne paused, carefully observed the mountain wall in front of her through Kong Zhe's perspective for a while, and finally shook her head: "It should be an adult body, but ordinary adults only need to eat normally. Now this tapir But it is a bit unreasonable to go to the trouble of creating two extreme dreams and eat them according to the precise amount."

"how?"

Kong Zhe glanced at the mountain wall again, and it is true that every time the two dreams are about the same size, they will float to it.

"Is there any difference between these two dreams and ordinary dreams?"

"Of course, the energy contained in dreams with different emotions is very different. For example, if dreams are regarded as food for human beings, then ordinary dreams are ordinary grains. There is a difference between more energy and less energy, but it is generally used to supplement physical strength.”

"And pure sweet dreams can be understood as fats and other super high-calorie foods. Just a little can easily replenish the energy needed for human activities. If you eat too much, you will easily gain weight. In contrast, pure nightmares are equivalent to sour plum fruits Wait for foods that help digestion. Eating these two foods at the same time can to a certain extent cancel out the positive and negative, which can remove those vain energy and make the absorption of energy more pure."

After listening to Suzanne's explanation, Kong Zhe still didn't understand.

Eating high-energy food while speeding up digestion to avoid food accumulation in the stomach can quickly transform energy and accelerate growth. It sounds like there is no problem?

Susanna shook her head and explained: "It's no problem to understand it with human thinking, but this is a nightmare, it has similar attributes to gluttony, as long as there is food, it will eat indefinitely, and the maximum capacity of its stomach can It is comparable to a small world. As long as it is an ordinary dream, no matter how much you eat, you don’t have to worry about bursting your body. However, now it deliberately chooses this troublesome way, and must eat the purest dream. According to the dream-eating tapir’s It doesn't make sense to be greedy. Unless..."

"Unless what?"

Suzanne paused, thought for a while before nodding and said: "Unless this nightmare-eating tapir is not in a normal state, there is only one situation where this kind of divine beast has to eat so carefully, and that is when it is giving birth! "

"Birth?"

Kong Zhe was taken aback: "You mean it is going to have a baby?"

"Now there is only one explanation. Pregnant nightmare-eating tapirs are very fragile, and the larvae in the stomachs of those dreams with too many impurities cannot be digested, so this method can only be used... Well, yes, it must be like this. It's a breeding nightmare."

As she spoke, Susanna began to nod her head incessantly, her tone became more and more certain, and she finally found the only reasonable conclusion for the situation in front of her.

"Wow?"

Just as Kong Zhe was about to continue asking something, a sharp hiss came from not far away!

He immediately realized that this unique cry was the voice of a rabbitman. He turned the branch and saw that the old rabbitman had emerged from the corner of the cave with a group of rabbitman warriors. The vines were completely exposed in front of their eyes.

The old rabbit man looked very angry, and kept yelling at the cane. Kong Zhe couldn't understand what it was talking about because he couldn't speak rabbit language. The moment the rabbit man appeared, he had already started to control the branch to quickly withdraw into the pipe.

What surprised him was that the old rabbit man actually possessed not weak mental power, and its thoughts followed Kong Zhe's branches, and quickly spread along the direction of the branches.

Kong Zhe was shocked, did the rabbitman want to find him directly through the rattan?Not to mention him, I'm afraid even Susanna can't do such a thing. How strong is the mental strength?

There was no time to think about it, the withdrawal speed of the vines was far slower than the speed of spiritual exploration, Kong Zhe made a decisive decision, cut off the vines from the nearest maze entrance, and only withdrew the remaining vines, leaving the rest in the pipeline middle.

In Residential Area 102, the rattan on the ceiling quickly shrank toward Kong Zhe's arm, and was finally retracted completely, turning into a normal palm again.

Kong Zhe breathed a sigh of relief, no matter how strong the old rabbitman's mental power is, he should be helpless in the face of nearly a thousand forked roads, so he can't try one by one, right?

Kong Zhe didn't believe that its spiritual power could be so huge. If it really had this strength, it would take such a troublesome way to directly spread its spiritual power to the whole island to find out his location easily.So now I should be considered safe.

Kong Zhe exhaled, and then went on to ask the question just now.

"If that mountain wall is really an adult nightmare-eating tapir, then is it the existence that killed the big snake at the bottom of the sea?"

"Well, it should be it. It's just a sea beast below the hero level. With the strength of a nightmare, even the conception period is just a matter of opening its mouth."

Suzanne immediately gave an affirmative answer.

"But isn't it on the island? Can it manage the affairs of the seabed?" Kong Zhe asked.

Suzanne gave Kong Zhe a weird look when she heard the words: "You don't really think that mountain wall is the body of the nightmare, do you?"

"how?"

Kong Zhe touched his head. He really thought so. After all, he has seen it open its mouth to eat. Isn’t the head where the mouth is? If the head is there, the body must be nearby. Physically connected?

"Isn't it?" Kong Zhe asked.

"of course not."

Susanna sighed and explained amusedly: "Do you know how big an adult nightmare-eating tapir's body is? According to ancient legends, a nightmare-eating tapir eats directly by capturing a city and wrapping the entire city with its body. The creatures inside will immediately fall into a dream, and then the nightmare-eating tapir will continue to absorb the dreams from the bodies of these creatures, until the vitality of all the creatures in a city is drained, and the nightmare-eating tapir will be considered as a meal, and then leave to go to Next city."

"A city?"

Kong Zhe's eyes widened, he could wrap a city with his body, wouldn't that be much bigger than the tallest mountain?
and many more……

Kong Zhe suddenly realized something.

If the nightmare-eating tapir is really bigger than the mountain, how can this small island hold it?unless……

"That's right, this island is the nightmare-eating tapir itself. Its body is resting in the sea, and the place where you are now is only a small part of its back above the sea!" Susanna nodded.

"This……"

Kong Zhe couldn't help being speechless, he and Su Meiqin analyzed for a long time, that mysterious creature is actually the island itself?We must know that we are now in the middle of the ocean. According to the geographical location of the earth, this is already the edge of the Pacific Ocean, and the average water depth of the Pacific Ocean is close to 4000 meters. Even if this is the edge, the water depth must be at least 1000 meters, right?
The height of the sea water alone can reach 1000 meters, not to mention that this thing is curled up on the bottom of the sea at this time, maybe its main body is under the bottom of the sea, so how big should the body of this creature be?
The giants that Kong Zhe had heard of in his previous life were only 200 meters tall at most, and standing in front of the nightmare may be as small as a small doll.

It is indeed an ancient mythical beast. With this size, the whole earth would not be able to fit a few more.

"I said, isn't it time to relax?"

When Kong Zhe was immersed in admiration, Susanna reminded him in time.

"Normal nightmare-eating tapirs will keep wandering. The reason why it is so calm now is because it is preparing to give birth. The middle-aged man just said that he has been here for more than two months, and in my memory Here, the entire reproductive period of the nightmare-eating tapir is only two months, that is to say, it is already at the end of the reproductive period, and it may be completed in the next day or two."

Susanna's tone was a bit serious: "The strength of the nightmare-eating tapir during the reproductive period is the weakest, especially the perception, which will be reduced to almost zero, which is why you are still alive and kicking. Once it is finished giving birth, Even if the perception power recovers a little bit, I can immediately perceive you troublemakers. I have already said that it is a face-to-face event for you. If you still want to run, you should take advantage of it now. Here's the chance."

Regarding this, Kong Zhe could only remain silent.

Of course he also understands the urgency of the situation, but it is not so easy to escape. First of all, the most troublesome thing is the fog. When he cannot use magic power, his strength is greatly damaged. Now even the big snake is dead. What are they going to do? Facing the countless monsters under the sea?What's more, the fog is not so weird, the interior is like a maze, and I'm afraid it's impossible to escape by ordinary escape methods.

Besides, it's Su Meiqin, if you want to escape, you can't just leave her alone, right?From the looks of it now, she should have been swallowed by this nightmare-eating tapir, so how to rescue her?It is not an easy task to save people from the belly of an ancient mythical beast.
