Vol 6 Chapter 229: Salt and salty creatures


"what--!"
The screaming sound echoed above the salt ground.
The creature named Tarantula, who has the title of scholar, is surprised at how the small flower on the side of it can make such a sharp and loud sound.
But it is even more surprising is the huge group of creatures in front of it.
The creatures have just been drilled from the ground, their skins are white, with a lot of cracks on them, and they are covered with enamel, which looks like... the surface of this salty land.
And their body size is more than two meters, the legs are almost under the pressure, and their bodies are also close to the ball.
All this proves that this is a kind of hair jade.
There are a lot of Maoyu, which have evolved into various forms, some even completely out of the way they were, and some of them retain their 'original form' during the glacial period, that is, the big, round body, small The eyes and short legs, even if they become very large, they have not left this appearance.
And this kind of jade, scholars have also read the data, they are called 'salt jade', their dry skin is a large amount of salt hardened.
They will swallow a large amount of salt and then drain the salt on the surface of the skin. These salts will solidify on their epidermis, forming such a 'shell'.
Any predator will refuse to kill them because ‘salt jade’ is too salty. They can even roll inside the minced ant colony and will not bite at all.
Salt jade prey is usually killed because it is too salty.
Scholars know that salt jade is a carnivorous creature with a special 'salt gland' in their body that can inject large amounts of salt into the target of bites. then. It doesn't matter if the prey escapes. Because of the large amount of salt injected, the prey will soon die.
This is a very good way to hunt in this unwatered wasteland, because with this ability, they are also a few creatures that live very happily on the salt fields.
Looking at the approaching salt jade, the scholar took out its imaging device, and according to the old look, it released the sound of the dragon.
But with the roar of the dragon. Salt jade did not retreat, because salt jade itself is not afraid of flying dragons... They are almost fearless because they are too salty!
A salt jade swayed its calf and slammed into the scholar! These creatures seem to have short legs, but when they leaping, the legs that are fully extended are much longer than their length.
The scholar quickly retreated, but this salt jade has jumped to the front of the scholar and bite heavily on his arm.
Salt jade has a pair of needle-shaped injection teeth for injecting high-salinity water.
but. The scholar wears armor on his hand, which is made of wood. However, it blocked the attack of Yan Yu, and the scholars hit the face of Yan Yu with a punch.
'Snapped! The salt block wrapped in Yan Yu’s face was splattered and splattered. The salt jade quickly retreated and the scholar temporarily entered a safe state.
However, Yan Yu did not retreat. They still stared at the scholars as if they were ready to launch a second attack. However, it seems that the salt jade had hesitated because of the failure of a salt jade attack.
"What should I do..."
Looking at the siege of Yan Yu, the scholar could not help but retreat a few. The armor on the hand was made when the aircraft was pieced together, but the salt jade teeth had bitten the crack on it because these creatures not only injected teeth, but also There are broken bones. In addition to hunting, they often look for bodies on the salt ground, so they are good at biting bones.
‘咔’
The scholar could not help but take a step back, but at this moment, there was a sound coming from its feet.
The scholar glanced down and found that the foot was covered with a lot of cracks...
"It won't be here..."
'boom! Suddenly, the ground under the feet of the scholar slammed open, and it fell.
..................
"Where is this... that... what is it..."
When its eyes open, it finds itself in the dark.
However, this is not complete darkness. In front of it, there is an object that emits a faint light.
This radiance is very soft, not dazzling, nor dim... Its special luster makes it impossible for scholars to prop up the tired body and walk toward the object that emits this light.
"What a nice view……"
In the minds of scholars, there is only one idea. As it approaches, the objects that emit light are becoming more and more clear.
It is a tree of up to five meters.
Unlike ordinary trees, it has no green color, but a combination of blue and purple. The soft, soft limbs are like tentacles hanging around the branches.
Its light attracts scholars to approach step by step, scholars can not help but want to touch the tree, it feels that its body has to be out of control...
‘啪嗒. When the scholar walked under the tree, he suddenly heard something. When he turned around, the scholar suddenly saw the skull of a creature. The empty eye hole stared straight at the scholar, and the scholar immediately felt a trace of fear.
It was this fear that made the scholar wake up suddenly. It quickly retreated a few steps. At this time, it was clear that there was a skeleton hanging on the tree in front of it, and the head of the cheekbone had just fallen. Only wake up the scholar's thoughts...
The scholars took a sigh of relief after taking a few steps back and confirming their safety.
"It seems that it has fallen into a strange place..."
The scholar looked up and found that the hole he had fallen down was not high, only ten meters, and next to the hole, the few salt jade were still looking here, but no one seemed to want to jump in.
The place where the scholars landed was covered with a lot of soft sand, so it was not injured.
In order not to continue to lure salt jade into the idea of ​​jumping in, the scholars left their sights and went to the tree that had just attracted themselves.
This tree, scholars have seen some information, it seems to be a subspecies of plants called 'Medusa tree', with a wonderful ... hunting ability.
But as long as it is not close, there should be no danger.
But scholars are currently most concerned about water. After some things, it has already felt very thirsty. It must find water quickly, otherwise...
"You must hurry..."
The scholar looked around and found that it was a cave, the ground was covered with soft sand, and there were many passages around.
From the sacrum of the tree, there should be living creatures here, and it should be able to find the source of water.
However, to find the source of water, you must also rely on the imaging device in its hands. This thing is quite useful. It can detect the water content in the air and find a place where there is water... (To be continued, please search for astronomical, novels) Better updated faster!
