Zerg Evolution Journey

Chapter 4 Xiaohei Observation Log
The food intake of the bug far exceeded that of normal creatures and soon reached the ears of the old man, that is, Kana's grandfather. The grandfather and grandson immediately transferred the bug to a special small room for detailed observation.

There are only four cubs in this room except for the worm, but there is no doubt that these cubs are very special. An eyeball-like creature looks like a piece of flesh wrapping the eyeball, and the outside is stretched out. A lot of tentacles emerged, clinging to the iron cage.

A four-hoofed creature without skin looks like a creature made of muscles as a whole, and the number of muscles is outrageous. From the outside, it seems to have reached nearly a thousand pieces, curled up into a ball as a whole, with its head It was very small, and the cage that held this creature was not an ordinary iron cage, but a cage made of thick and thin steel rods around the mouth of a bowl. The distance between the steel rods was so small that the entire cage almost became a metal block.

The remaining two creatures, one is a worm without mouthparts and no excretory organs of worms, it does not eat ordinary food, the little worm observed that this worm relies on the epidermis to contact the luminous crystals placed by the breeder to ingest What it needs, this particular worm also emits a blue light whenever it feeds.

And the last creature is also a bug, which makes Xiao Chong sigh in his heart, the richness and complexity of bug species will always evolve something special.

This worm is green and looks like a grasshopper. Its two hind legs are extremely developed, but its front four legs are sharp and sickle-shaped, it has no eyes, and it has several pairs of wings, but the worm has not seen it. It has flapped its wings, and its size is also very small, it seems that an adult insect is no more than ten centimeters.

As for why it is locked here, it is naturally because of its own peculiarities. Every once in a while, this bug will make a strange sound, which is very harsh. After two days of observation by the bug, he found that This worm relies on a special organ in the abdomen to release sound waves, and at the same time uses the antennae on its head to receive the returning sound waves, so as to identify the surrounding situation.

The characteristics of these creatures are very tempting, especially the little muscular monster without skin. If you can ingest its essence, the little bug can create a completely metamorphosis with a strong physique.

"Xiao Hei observes the log. This larva has an amazing appetite and is very picky eater. It only eats the meat of monsters. It needs to eat food about twice its own weight every day, but its growth rate is very slow, it hardly grows, and it does not excrete. Preliminary estimates , it can convert all the food it eats into the energy it needs, and other characteristics have not been discovered yet.”

Sitting by the cage, Kana, who was observing Xiao Chong, recorded the overall condition of Xiao Chong in a book marked Xiao Hei.

Kanna and her grandfather are not members of this dueling arena. To be precise, they are public officials of the Empire's Warcraft Research Institute. They are responsible for researching various types of Warcraft, familiarizing them with their habits, and adding new species discovered to the Warcraft Book. among.

Although this Alien Beast Arena is not owned by the public, the higher-ups still sent researchers to station here. The Arena is not qualified to refuse, and at the same time, they must provide them with salaries.

"Grandpa, Xiao Hei's reaction has been a bit strange these two days!" After closing the diary, Kana said to the old man who was busy on the workbench.

Hearing this, the old man turned around and asked, "Oh? Tell me!"

Kana replied: "Since Xiaohei was transferred here, he has been staring at Meatball, Tiaotiao, Chongchong and Qiuqiu. Is Xiaohei afraid of them?"

The old man laughed, shook his head, stopped what he was doing and said, "After following me for so long, don't you still understand the habits of insect creatures? If Xiao Hei is afraid of them, he will curl up or run away, but you Look, does Xiao Hei seem to be afraid of them? From my point of view, it wants to eat those little guys!"

eat?Kana didn't believe it. In her opinion, Xiao Hei was just staring at a few other creatures. He didn't hit the cage like asking for food, or made any gesture of attacking, and didn't have the reaction of a predator when facing his prey.

The old man saw Kana's disbelief. He used tweezers to pick up a small tentacle on the workbench. The tiny tentacles regrow within minutes.

The old man held the tentacles and pulled one end into the worm's cage. Just as the old man said, the worm immediately put it on after seeing the tentacles, and the tentacles on the mouthparts instantly smashed the tentacles caught in the mouth.

Xiao Chong didn't know that the old man and the girl were talking about life, he couldn't understand it, but it didn't matter, since the essence was placed in front of him, of course Xiao Chong would take it without hesitation.

Seeing the little bug devouring the tentacles, Kana's eyes showed surprise: "Grandpa, Qiuqiu doesn't seem to be a monster! Doesn't Xiao Hei only eat monster meat?"

The old man is an expert in biological research all the year round, so he almost guessed why the bug wanted to eat the tentacles of the ball.

"Insect creatures are very simple. They know what they need, so they hunt for it. If I'm not wrong, Xiao Hei doesn't just eat the meat of monsters, but it chooses what food it needs. Think about it, What is the biggest difference between monsters and ordinary beasts!"

In a word, Kana seemed to be woken up, and suddenly said: "Personality, although the physical qualities of ordinary creatures are different, but in general, there are only a few kinds of abilities, and the means that can be used are limited, unlike Warcraft. There are all kinds of strange things, all kinds of abilities and body tissues are not seen in ordinary beasts, could it be... Xiao Hei is hunting for the characteristics of other creatures?"

"It is possible that nine out of ten monsters on the mainland have been included in the Warcraft Illustrated Book. Only some tiny monsters that are difficult to find can escape the search of various detective magics, and larvae like Xiao Hei It’s impossible to escape detective magic, it’s not listed in the Warcraft Book, and there’s no information about its adults, so I think it should be a mutated insect larva.”

Variations, the most peculiar creatures in the Violet Continent, they only exist among insects, and when they are in the larvae stage, they will obtain characteristics from other creatures hunted by their mothers, and all mutants have a characteristic, that is, larvae and other creatures The variation between adults has reached the point of two species, and even the larvae produced by the same mother may not be the same after becoming adults, and this depends on the characteristics ingested by the larvae.

Hypermetamorphosis, this is what researchers call mutants from larvae to adults. However, mutants can no longer absorb the characteristics of other organisms after they reach adults, because the differences between adults are too large. It is so huge that it cannot be listed in the Warcraft Book as a species. Therefore, there are only a few mutated larvae in the Warcraft Book, but there is no record of adults.

As for Xiao Hei, its larval stage is not recorded in the Warcraft Illustrated Book. Within two days of observation, the old man roughly confirmed that Xiao Hei is a mutant larva. It is too difficult to find a new species of Warcraft, not to mention mutant larvae that are even harder to find than divine beasts.
