Chapter 516-520, Monsters vs Demons(1/3)
ps: Thank you for the reward for Yimian Canghai’s house purchase plan. In addition, I suddenly found that the number of words in this book has exceeded one million, and I am so shocked! This book is so fat that it cannot be fatter. I hope all fellow Taoists will slaughter it quickly to avoid this demon from harming the world! Immortal Heavenly Lord!
Even if Terrence and his men transported back tens of thousands of people, it would be far from enough. Moreover, the people who were plundered were old, young, male, female, and even infants with milk. It would be impossible for the whole nation to go to battle.
Of course, there are also solutions. Meng Ting and others imitated a plow for plowing fields.
But this animal power is difficult to solve.
In the other world, most of the animal power used by humans are animals such as triangular cows.
But the triangular cow was originally a good mount for cavalry, and it was difficult to find it in peacetime, let alone the war is now.
It would be nice to use the Vajra Armor Powers to fill the power of the beast.
But this insulted those Taoist soldiers. Moreover, in the war, most of the Vajra Armored Warriors need to guard the castles, patrol back and forth, and other tasks. In addition, Terrence and the other two have taken away three thousand Taoist soldiers. Even if Meng Ting and others agree, they cannot draw so many Taoist soldiers.
Zhang Qingming was studying magic tools used to replace animal power, but for a monk who had just begun to go deeper into the making of tools, this was a bit difficult.
Even Meng Ting and others attacked the locust monsters, but the results of the experiment made them feel a little depressed.
Those locust monsters have a lot of strength, but the problem is that they are not suitable for plowing the fields.
The way they move forward is to jump, but if they let them crawl, they will not only consume their physical strength very quickly, but their speed is also so slow that it makes people feel headache.
In the end, Meng Ting and other disciples had to ask Jia Kedao for help.
And Jia Kedao also got an idea from the locusts.
That is to study and select suitable insects to transform demons, thereby replacing animal power or becoming combat troops alone, just like those shrimp soldiers and crab generals.
Although the combat effectiveness of those shrimp soldiers and crab generals is very low, Jia Kedao's output has been very high since he was able to draw the Ten Thousand Demon Talisman.
If a thousand demon talisman is gone, the shrimp demon can enlighten thousands, the crab demon can enlighten five or six hundred, and the fish demon can enlighten one or two hundred.
Therefore, even though Bai Da led the army of water monsters to conquer the monsters in Jiutou River during these times, he suffered heavy losses, but he relied on the number and even the spiritual weapons in his hands to win every game and never lost.
Not only that, after a series of battles, the corpses of those monsters were swallowed by many water monsters, which improved the surviving water monster Taoist practices a lot.
Well, monsters’ growth in Taoism does not only rely on cultivation, but more on devouring blood food.
With such a precedent, Jia Kedao's next choice will be much more convenient.
If it is used as animal power, then this insect should be reptile and have great strength.
After screening according to this range, the only insects that were shortlisted were ants, beetles and even earthworms.
Among them, the feces excreted by the earthworms are originally effective in fertilizing the fields, and they are good at digging holes and walking underground. In this way, the earthworms can be regarded as the best insects to plow the fields.
The beetle is big and powerful, and can drag heavy objects that weigh dozens of times its body, and has extremely strong defense. If it transforms into a demon, it may be considered the strongest defense among insects.
Finally, there are ants. Even elementary school students on earth know that ants are famous strongmen among insects. Any kind of ant can easily drag a heavy object that weighs hundreds of times or even hundreds of times more than its own body.
Jia Kedao then launched a series of experiments.
Jia Kedao first opened dozens of basins with an area of thousands of acres next to the experimental forest in Qingmu Valley, and banned them with talismans around to prevent insects from escaping.
Then, more than ten large, strong and powerful varieties were selected from the earthworms, beetles and ants, and placed them in a basin, and fed them to raise animal pills to promote their reproduction speed.
After feeding for one month, Jia Kedao stood on the mountain wall at the edge of the basin and looked down, and he could see different scenery in these basins.
The basins used to reproduce earthworms are generally covered with pits of various sizes. From time to time, earthworms with thick arms will poke their heads out and feed the dead branches and leaves piled up outside.
In the basins used to reproduce beetles, there are many mud balls half a human tall, which will roll for a distance from time to time. When you look closely, it is a dung beetle the size of a human head that is pushing.
Or in some beetle basins, there are beetles such as the size of human heads, long halberds, war gods, etc., which are rushing to each other, and from time to time, collide with each other.
As for those ant basins, some are huge ant hills, some are creating various channels to form ant holes, and some are casting nests on huge trees, each with its own strengths.
In fact, during this month's reproduction, Jia Kedao conducted various tests on these earthworms, beetles and ants based on the environment in another world.
This test soon eliminated a group of earthworms, beetles and ants that were not suitable for survival in other worlds.
Among them, earthworms are the most eliminated. If Jia Kedao had not left a kind of earthworm to enrich the field, he might have eliminated all earthworms.
Compared with beetles and ants, earthworms are a bit too sensitive. They are born with six fears: photo, shock, impotence, salt, spicy, and cold.
Simply put, if you put it in the sun, it takes only ten minutes to die, and you will die in 20 minutes. You are afraid of vibration. Any vibration may scare them away and be flooded. Whenever there is a heavy rain, they will be unable to stay underground and can only climb to the ground. If the water level is enough to submerge their bodies halfway, then you can only wait to die.
In addition, soil with higher salt content will die if it encounters spicy land, that is, soil with higher alkalinity, will also die. The temperature is too high, if it is above 30 degrees, if it is too low, if it is below 10 degrees, it will also die.
In short, the survivability of this earthworm is not as high as people think.
Of course, if the land is too dry, the earthworms will die. Various ways of death make it difficult for these earthworms to reproduce if Jia Kedao does not take care of them carefully.
The kind of earthworms that Jia Kedao retained are also the most powerful adaptable among these earthworms.
This earthworm was originally a kind of ring-haired earthworm on the land of China. Its adaptability is the strongest. Its body size was only the length of fingers, but with the infusion of spiritual energy in another world, most of them grew to the thickness of thighs. Of course, this is why this earthworm can roughly resist various environmental influences.
At this time, the influence of spiritual energy on earthworms has reached its peak, and in a short period of time, it is impossible for this earthworm to grow again.
This is the best time to enlighten.
However, the chance of insects being successfully enlightened is extremely low. Tens of millions of earthworms constantly burst into meat sauce under the influence of the ten thousand demon talismans. However, the meat sauce turned into by these earthworms just turns into food for ants and beetles, which is not a waste.
After thousands of enlightenment and more than two weeks, Jia Kedao only gained three earthworm monsters.
The prototype of this earthworm monster is about four or five meters long, and the offspring produced is also considered to be monster-level, more than one meter long, with a little intelligence, which is a little worse than locust monsters. However, its main purpose is to plow wasteland and fertilize fields. A little training can be used, and the requirements for intelligence are not too high.
The only problem is that the egg-laying ability of these three earthworm monsters is far inferior to that of locust monsters. They can only produce up to thirty eggs a day. In a short period of time, it is basically impossible to reproduce a large number of earthworm monsters for plowing the fields, so they can only wait to be used as substitutes for fertilizers in the future.
Compared with earthworms, there are a lot more species of beetles that are retained.
Among them are the war god Dadu, the hairy elephant Dadu, and the unicorn immortal. These so-called Dadu are actually big beetles like the unicorn immortal.
Big beetles are a very wide variety of pets on earth, and many beetle enthusiasts like to raise beetles.
This God of War Dadu is the most popular big beetle.
In the wilderness of the earth, most of its body length is between 6.5 and 14 centimeters, large in size, gentle in temperament, black hard and shiny shell, plus a developed head horn owned by the male insects, and a slender chest horn that slants toward the left and right, like a war god holding a spear and wearing a double sword, very handsome, hence the name.
The big hairpin of the hair is also named after its body shape. From the front, the front end of the long horn extending out of the front is slightly forked, which is very similar to the elephant trunk. The short and thick horns separated on both sides are like open elephant ears, which are very similar to the front of the elephant, hence the name.
Of course, the size of this hairy elephant Big Dog is still a little worse than that of the God of War Dadou.
There is no need to explain the last unicorn immortal too much. In fact, these big beetles are considered close relatives.
It is said that these big beetles are indeed much stronger than earthworms. After this period of time, the latest large beetles that have been thawed and matured have exceeded three feet in size.
And when Jia Kedao was enlightened, due to his strong body, the number of these beetles successfully enlightened was much higher than that of earthworms.
These three large beetles were successfully ignited hundreds of them.
This number is not small for insects, but during the enlightenment process, the large beetles that could not withstand the explosion of demonic energy accumulated into mountains, and even Jia Kedao could not calculate the number.
After these enchanted giant beetles turned into monsters, their prototype exceeded six meters, and the size of their descendants exceeded ten meters.
Compared with locust monsters, these big beetle monsters are much stronger in terms of combat power and size. When they run and charge on the ground, even the green dragon Opssi is unwilling to let several beetle monsters hit one after another. That is simply bulldozers.
In addition, beetles and monsters are all able to fly like their kind. Although their speed is not very fast, they can move their huge bodies at will without being hindered by terrain such as river troughs on the ground.
However, its weaknesses are as obvious as its advantages. Its reproductive ability is very weak. Each beetle monster mother can only produce ten eggs per month. That is to say, the three beetles combined together, and the mother insects only have more than 160, and only 1,600 eggs per month.
This is not a very critical issue. After all, as long as you wait for some time, the descendants of these beetle monsters will not reproduce too few. The biggest problem is that the beetle monsters inherit the completely perverted characteristics.
If it wants to grow into an adult, it needs to go through the stages of eggs, larvae, pupae, and adult.
Even if the larval stage is the longest, even if Jia Kedao fed a lot of animal elixirs, his larval stage can only be reduced to one month at most.
Of course, this is already good compared to its original larval stage that lasted half a year or even several years.
While Jia Kedao began to raise beetle monster larvae, he did not forget to select ants like ants.
Given the previous test results, Jia Kedao found that the larger the size, the stronger the insects have higher divination efficiency. Therefore, when choosing ant species, Jia Kedao chose the two largest ants on the earth, bull ants and bullet ants.
The worker ants of the bull ants are three or seven centimeters long, while the worker ants of the bullet ants are three centimeters long. These two types of ants are considered giants in the ant family.
And under the nourishment of spiritual energy in other worlds and animal elixirs, the worker ants of these two types of ants have grown to one and a half feet and a length of one foot.
Although the proportion of its strength decreased after the body size increased, it was still very strong. The square stones half a human tall could be easily moved by these ants, which really made people stunned.
The next enlightenment was as usual, as many as countless corpses, and all the worker ants were killed by the demonic energy, but the queens who were more than three meters long survived more than ten heads.
Moreover, after these ants turned into monsters, their size increased to more than 50 meters long. Although they could not change their human form, had no combat power, and were slow to move, after they began to lay eggs, the scene made Meng Ting and others who came to pay their respects to their master stunned.
Imagine that the queen, who is more than fifty meters long, has a translucent belly of more than forty meters long. She is lying on the ground. After Jia Kedao asked Meng Ting and others to feed these queens some food, the queens discharged translucent eggs from their stomachs like giant basketballs.
What surprised Jia Kedao was that after hundreds of eggs were discharged, the queens stopped ovulating.
The eggs began to hatch quickly. In a few minutes, the eggs exploded one by one, and then giant translucent ants appeared from the exploded eggs. They seemed to have turned into adult ants from birth. After stretching, they exceeded one meter. Their initial shell was light yellow and soft. After blew in the wind for a while, they turned into a black hard shell.
After the shell hardened, these giant ants began to get busy. Some of them began to dig the ground under the queen's body, while some of them were exploring the surroundings with great confidence. After finding the food, they quickly sent them back to the queen and feed the queen.
In fact, after transforming into a demon, the queen's eating ability is much stronger than that of ordinary ants. You should know that ordinary ants rely on the ant honey secreted by worker ants to maintain their lives most of the time, and rarely eat directly.
These ants have strong digging ability. In less than half an hour, the queen's huge body sank into the ground. At this time, the ants began to cover the floating soil on the queen's body, and stopped until they covered the queen's body, and then began to dig wildly.
Seeing the worker ants being crazy digging, Jia Kedao couldn't help but frown. Although these worker ants had a little demonic energy, the red light outside their bodies was extremely thin, which meant that these worker ants would soon die.
These worker ants dug out passages to form micro nests. Only after the queens were placed did the queens start laying eggs.
The hatching speed of the ant eggs produced this time is slower, and hatching from the ant eggs is just a young ants. After a week of growth and pupation, these young ants truly grow into adult worker ants.
The short life of the worker ants before also reached the end, and was torn to pieces by the new worker ants, acting as the food of the queen.
The worker ants produced by the queens this time were larger than those of the previous worker ants, but they were only two meters in size and their strength increased a lot. However, as the body size expanded, the proportion of the worker ants' strength also decreased.
