Chapter 776 The Man in the Chrysalis

"哐——"

The back of his head hit something hard, maybe a stone or a tree root protruding from the ground, and Anhil woke up from his coma.

He was in a trance.

The memory of the previous second still showed that Fuyuelong crashed into the dense forest like a giant meteorite. He was very lucky not to be hit, but he was also knocked away by the impact.

It fell to the ground and then lost consciousness until now.

Blinking his eyelids hard twice, his thinking gradually returned to clarity.

He felt the state of his body. He was in severe pain all over his body. His bones were not broken but they might be cracked, and his internal organs were also shocked.

But at least you survived, right?

So, what is the situation now?

The tree crown above my head was moving slowly. No, it was me who was moving. I was lying on a huge leaf, being dragged forward by something.

Anhil tried his best to look up and forward.

Pupil earthquake!

What the hell is that?!

The person dragging him forward was a human? An upright, bipedal creature?

It was like a combination of a person and an insect chrysalis. Large pieces of insect silk and a large translucent pupa body with a hardened structure formed the main part of its body.

The head and torso are connected together, forming a huge, orange-red, slimy spindle-shaped insect pupa. The limbs protrude from the pupa, and are also wrapped in sticky silk and chitin carapace.

The chrysalis seems to be filled with semi-liquid liquid. Every time this "chrysalis" takes a step, there will be a strange sound of "gurgling gurgling" liquid squeezing out of the body.

Anhil stared, and the string of reason in his mind almost broke.

He has always been an atheist, and he doesn't believe in anything about heaven and the underworld, but at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little shaken.

Besides Hades and Hell, where else could the Creator create such a deformed creature?!

As if he noticed Ancier's movement or gaze, the chrysalis stopped and turned to face him.

"Gulu. Wake up, Gulu?"

The voice that came from inside the chrysalis was actually a young female voice, but the voice was dull and unclear, as if she was talking with her head stuck in glue, and every few words she said would bring out a series of gurgling bubble sounds.

Anhir looked at each other blankly.

The chrysalis man continued: "It's hurt, Gululu, Gulu immediately when we get there."

Common language? No, it is different from the human language commonly used in the old continent. The pronunciation and grammar seem to be different, but it is still understandable.

"Lululu, are you hungry?"

Being "stared" by the two rows of things on the opponent's "face" that were either eyes or blowholes, Anhil swallowed subconsciously.

This seemed to have misunderstood the other party. The Chrysalis took something out of his body and took out a fat white worm that was bigger than his fist and handed it to Anshir.

An Xil's mouth twitched sharply.

He recognized this thing - the Endurance Thunderworm.

It is not distributed in the Old World, but it is said that it is everywhere in the New World. I did not expect that it is also found in Hong Leong.

Sometimes businessmen collect them and send them to East Doruma as "special foods of the New World" or "magical pets of the New World", and there are always curious people willing to pay to try them.

Gordon bought it and tried it. According to the guy, it tasted sticky and made him feel surprisingly full.

But he doesn't want to try at all. He has a "weakness" that almost no one knows - he hates these fleshy bugs the most, disgusting!

Seeing Ansiel staring blankly at the lunch box in his hand, without any intention of reaching out, the Chrysalis thought that the former was being polite, so he directly placed the Endurance Thunderworm on Ansiel's belly, and then continued to drag him forward.

.

Looking at the fat bug slowly crawling from his stomach to his chest, Anhil felt as if his hair was standing on end.

He wanted to throw this thing away immediately, but considering that it might anger the Chrysalis, he had to bite the bullet and endure it.

The situation is unclear at the moment, his physical condition is extremely poor, and his weapon [Shigure] has been lost. It is obviously not a wise choice to rashly offend this strange-looking, but seemingly harmless, pupa man.

Since the other party is able to communicate and does not appear to be malicious, proper communication is necessary.

"Ahem, madam? Let me come down and walk by myself." Anhil called to stop the pupa who was trying hard to drag the leaves under him, "My injury shouldn't be that serious."

"Guji, are your injuries still okay?"

"It should be fine."

Ancil sat up slowly, put the endurance thunderbug aside calmly, and then stood up slowly.

The bones in both legs are fine, but there may be bone fractures in the ribs. The left shoulder was seriously injured, and the entire shoulder is swollen. Every movement of the arm is painful, and the joints may be misaligned.

He put his right hand on his left shoulder and massaged it for a while. After roughly confirming the situation, Anhir stumbled to a big tree, found a suitable angle, and gave it a hard bump.

After a crisp "click" sound, the joint returns to its original position.

"Gurgululu." The pupa man clapped his hands, as if to congratulate him?

Gritting his teeth and enduring the severe pain of joint repositioning, Anhil took off his helmet, took out a secret medicine, drank it, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and nodded to the Chrysalis Man.

"Sorry for the wait."

"What! Guji"

When he just took out the secret medicine, Ancier checked briefly and found that his pocket had not been touched. He thought about it, took out another piece of food and handed it to the other party.

Maybe exchanging food is a way of showing friendship?

The chrysalis was stunned for a moment. After taking the food, he looked at it for a few times. He didn't eat it immediately, but put it away.

The effect of the secret medicine is as trustworthy as ever. In just a short time, the pain all over my body has been reduced a lot, and at least low-intensity walking is no longer a problem.

But if you want to truly recover, you probably need to practice for a while.

"Is it okay to walk around?"

"Where are we going now?" Ancier asked at the same time as he followed the chrysalis man.

The chrysalis man replied in a relaxed tone, "Go to the forest."

"My companion may be looking for me. Can he take me back to the ruins?" Anhil asked tentatively.

"Guji. No, the mountain god has awakened. The tower is too dangerous. You can't get close to Gululu."

Anhir hesitated for a moment. He wanted to say goodbye and leave directly, but he was completely unable to confirm his current location. He only knew that he should still be in the sea of ​​​​Batu Batum trees.

Without knowing the direction, without a map, without weapons, and still injured, trying to find the right direction in this vast sea of ​​trees with millions of square kilometers is like a dream.

Instead of wandering around like a headless fly, it is better to follow this suspected aboriginal guy to the so-called "woodland".

From being dragged all the way to now following one after another, Ancier silently observed the pupa man who was a few steps ahead of him.

The opponent is not tall, in fact quite short. Even including the bifurcated horns at the top of the giant chrysalis, it is only about 160 centimeters tall.

After a period of observation, he was basically certain that the other party was a human being and that he was not too old.

Being able to communicate with each other and having the voice of a young girl is one thing.

The more critical evidence is that when they passed by an area with sunlight in the forest, the columnar sunlight illuminated the giant pupa. Through the translucent pupa shell and fluid, Anhir could vaguely see what was wrapped in it.

A slender human figure inside a giant pupa.

This reminded him of what Hilda had said about the special biological technology mastered by the aborigines of the Sea of ​​Trees.

If those pupa shells, worm threads, and even the egg white-like mucus inside the giant pupa are collectively understood as some kind of special biological armor, then everything will be easily explained.
