Chapter 582: Anatomy of the Beast
Thor was suddenly attacked by a purple-black strip of flesh, but for him it was the end of his boring journey.
"Comparing tentacles with me?" Thor didn't even move. The algae suddenly popped out from the back of his neck, split into ten pieces in the air, and quickly penetrated into the land around Thor's body.
Thor felt the strips of flesh entangled with him immediately let go of his legs and ran downwards.
Sol pressed his hands on the ground, and with a little force, he pulled out his legs.
Looking at the large hole that was constantly denting on the ground, he took two steps back and waited for Xiaozao to return.
After a few breaths, the sand beneath his feet began to tremble, and the ground nearby began to vibrate with a rumbling sound.
The algae tightened, then pulled, slowly pulling out of the ground.
The knotted vines trapped a huge clod of soil, emerging from the ground little by little. The black and gray dust on the soil fell rustlingly, forming waterfalls composed of sand and soil.
A large amount of dust flew into the sky, and visibility dropped to less than one meter for a while.
Thor held his breath and narrowed his eyes, waiting for the big monster in the soil to appear.
Finally, after most of the soil was shaken off by the algae, a huge beast three meters long appeared inside the crisscrossing black vines.
The beast has a huge mouth and a relatively thin body and limbs. It looks as if only the mouth can still eat, and the other limbs are almost degenerated.
The strip of purple flesh that once wrapped around Thor's right leg was his tongue.
When it was pulled out of the ground by Xiao Zao, it immediately stretched out its most powerful weapon, its tongue, and desperately tore at Xiao Zao's vines.
But the current Xiaozao is simply not something ordinary beasts can fight against.
The unknown beast saw that one tongue could not break free from the shackles of the algae, and four tongues popped out of its mouth again.
The five tongues wrapped around different vines and pulled in different directions, as if trying to break free of Xiaozao with brute force.
But its resistance still failed.
"Okay, Xiaozao, let go of it first."
Xiaozao, who was still tangled like a ball of wool, immediately retracted it smoothly. The huge beast immediately fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust again.
As soon as the beast landed on the ground, it was about to burrow into the soil, but Thor grabbed his tail, threw him over his shoulder, and threw him behind.
While the opponent was on his back, Thor jumped directly onto the opponent's white belly, and stepped on the beast's huge mouth with one foot, preventing it from opening its mouth to attack Thor.
He has already seen that this beast usually relies on vibrations to hunt and hides under the sand. Except for its mouth, its other limbs are short and weak.
Even digging holes and ambush relies on the mouth and the tough and flexible tongue inside.
Just when Thor was about to check on the beast, his mental power attached to the compass sent back a message that the chaos compass had finished cooling down.
Sol lowered his head and estimated the time. It should be less than a day, about 20 to 22 hours.
The beast under his feet was patting the soil with its tiny limbs while Thor wasn't paying attention.
The rhythmic pattern seems to tap with purpose.
"Is it asking for help from its companions? But the group of guys like this shouldn't be moving very fast, right?"
Thor thought for a while and decided not to wait for the second beast to appear, directly activate the chaos compass, and return to The main world of wizards.
Thor looked up and saw the mushroom forest in the distance and the wizard's tower nestled in the misty white mist.
"That's right, there were no accidents. I came back smoothly."
Thor raised his feet, and the long-tongued monster that had attacked him came back with him.
But now that he was motionless, when he looked carefully, he found that the other party was already dead.
Thor's mental power swept through and found that there were many active elemental particles in the monster's body.
"That's right, just like there is water pressure underwater, there is also elemental pressure in places where the concentration of elemental particles varies greatly. It feels so uncomfortable for me to enter a chaotic area without active elements. It never suddenly enters a place filled with a large number of elemental particles without active elements. In the Borderlands, it was like suddenly entering the deep sea from the sea surface, and being crushed to death."
Xiaozao ran out again, passed through the beast's mouth, put a few loops on his huge head, and hung the beast directly on the in the air.
It was as if Thor had just returned from a hunting trip.
On the Rhine Lake, a huge figure walked across the ice. The butler was the first to come out of the wizard tower, looked up at the huge beast, and opened his mouth slightly.
"Welcome back, Lord Tower Master, but I didn't know you were out hunting."
Thor reluctantly moved the beast from the stairwell to the underground floor. As soon as he vacated an experimental platform and put the beast on it, he saw several Both the conscious body and the old witch ran over curiously.
Although Camus said nothing, his eyes were looking at the newly appeared monster.
"Where did this beast come from? It looks like there is no magic power in its body, but it looks so strange. Why have I never seen it before?" The old witch came forward and poked the beast's head with her finger.
"It was hunted from a place you have never been to. But it is indeed somewhat special, so I will study it later."
Thor skillfully dissected the beast and examined its body structure.
"The cartilage in the body accounts for a large proportion." Agu assisted from the side. "It doesn't seem to use its body to hunt much." "
Well," Thor checked the blood and meat and replied casually, "Lying flat for too long."
Then he The dissection of the beast's head began again.
The bones are hard and the skull is somewhat similar to that of a snake, allowing it to swallow prey larger than its head.
As he was taking it apart, Thor suddenly took hold of the beast's five black and purple tongues, slowly stroking them out along the throat.
The base of the beast's tongue is not in the mouth, but in the esophagus, and is connected by a grape-shaped sarcoma.
When Sol tried to cut out the sarcoma with a knife, he was shocked to find that the inside of the sarcoma was moving.
He put a layer of protection on the experimental table and then began to cut the sarcoma. However, the sharp knife failed to leave any wound on the sarcoma.
Sol changed to two more types, but the sharper tools still failed to cut through the sarcoma.
The old witch stretched out a finger, and the fingertip instantly turned into a blade. "Do you need my help?"
Thor shook his head and said, "It's not about the tools."
He snapped his fingers, and a black blade fragment appeared on his finger. tip.
With a light stroke of his fingers, the skin of the previously uncut sarcoma was easily separated like cheese, revealing the tofu-like texture inside.
Thor took out the mixing stick, stirred it, and then raised it to his eyes.
"The material inside seems to have not been completely deactivated." Sol wiped the material on the stirring rod into the test tube and handed it to Agu. "Go and check the basic properties. In addition, be careful to seal it and don't let the material inside be exposed to the outside world. ."
Agu naturally knew where Thor brought this beast back from, so he said nothing and just nodded cautiously.
"Do you suspect that this beast is poisonous?" the old witch asked from the side.
Thor said: "This sarcoma can become the last inactive organ on the beast. There is something special about it. It is always right to be careful."
After hearing this, the old witch looked at the sarcoma on the beast with much enthusiasm.
Seeing this, Sol immediately told Agu, "Destroy the samples immediately after testing."
The old witch rolled her eyes.
Then Thor looked at the remaining stirring rod in his hand and found that there seemed to be some black particles on it.
He extracted these particles and found that they broke into smaller powders when touched.
This scene is so familiar.
Thor immediately took out two small bottles from his body.
Both bottles were filled with black powder, one had more and one had less.
The two bottles contain sand from the Chaos Realm and floating objects in the air.
Sol briefly tested the three powders using existing tools and found that their physical behavior was surprisingly consistent.
"Is this organ of the beast used to filter the black dust entering the body?"
Suddenly, Thor's thinking was interrupted by Camus.
She widened her eyes and looked at the petri dish on Sol's table, "How come there is a dormant body of the source of pollution in that beast?" "
What?" Sol and others were shocked by the information in Camus' words and turned around at the same time.
Camus pursed his lips, with a rare tangled expression on his face, "You can check the pollution sources you sealed with your tentacles. If the sealing time is long enough, the pollution sources will enter a dormant state. Then its shape should be the same as in your hands. The black powder is consistent with it."
Thor: "...Gan!"
