Chapter 224 Insect Eggs

"Yeah." Walter hummed softly, and then continued in a low voice: "Actually, we have suspected that the creeping vines here are probably cultivated by the barbarian orcs."

"Oh? Why?"

"The barbarian orcs asked us to prepare some strange potions before. Later, we secretly saw them sending these potions into the canyon. We guessed that they should be the vines fed by these potions."

As he spoke, Walter had stopped, and he noticed the red core of the climbing vines on the rock wall in front of him.

"Sir, please help me get it." Walter handed the burning branch to Fang Tian, ​​then carefully opened his backpack and took out a small bottle and a small carving knife.

Stepping forward cautiously, Walter used a small carving knife to gently slide a knife across the red stamen mountain.

Fang Tian's eyelids twitched slightly.

The red core was lightly scratched with a carving knife and a small hole was opened, and red blood seeped out from the core.

Walter carefully stretched out the bottle to catch the red liquid.

Taking advantage of this time, Fang Tian was also observing these vines.

It is slightly different from the vines that entangled the entire abandoned town before. The vines here look darker and more slender.

If Walter's judgment is correct and these creeping vines are fed by barbarian orcs, then it is obvious that the creeping vines cultivated with special chemicals do not grow as well as those that directly absorb human blood.

Soon, Walter filled a small half bottle of blood.

After losing blood, the entire stamen core became dim, and then, the core withered in the blink of an eye and fell to the ground.

However, the surrounding vines did not seem to be affected in any way and were still squirming slightly.

"call!"

Walter looked relieved, wiped his forehead carefully, then stepped back and took the branch in Fang Tian's hand, "Sir, this blood is not enough, we need to collect more raw materials."

Fang Tian hummed softly.

After walking a few steps forward, Walter found a new target and continued to stop to collect potion raw materials.

Fang Tian glanced deep into the canyon passage, and he vaguely felt a special wave coming from the front.

Is it a mental fluctuation?

Fang Tian was confused and turned his head to look at Yu Xuan beside him.

Yu Xuan didn't notice anything. She focused on the vines. Sensing Fang Tian's gaze, she turned back to look at Fang Tian.

Their eyes briefly met in the air.

Strangely, without saying a word, Yu Xuan seemed to understand the confusion in Fang Tian's eyes, and shook her head slightly, indicating that she felt nothing.

Strange.

Fang Tian thought about it and asked: "Hey, Walter, where is the place in the canyon?"

"You mean the front?" Walter had just finished collecting a core. He stepped back and looked timidly into the depths of the canyon. He answered very carefully: "Sir, I don't know very well. We used to collect raw materials. The orcs will accompany us in. They don't let us get too close to the inside, and we usually collect from the outside and don't dare to get close. "

"Interesting, let's go in and have a look."

Fang Tian said, walking towards the depths of the canyon.

Walter wanted to dissuade him, but when he saw Fang Tian walking forward, he swallowed the words on his lips and hurriedly followed.

As we go deeper, the canyon passage gradually becomes narrower. After walking forward for nearly three to four hundred meters, the passage ahead has become so narrow that it is difficult to pass. You can almost only enter by turning sideways.

If you continue to move forward, you will definitely provoke those creeping vines.

Walter stopped, but he felt relieved. The further he moved forward, the more uneasy he felt. He always felt that there was something terrifying deep in the canyon, and his intuition told him that he could not go deeper.

"Okay, you stay here and continue collecting. I'll go in and take a look alone." Fang Tian said and handed back the burning branches.

Go in and have a look? Walter was stunned and subconsciously took the branch. He realized when he saw Fang Tian walking forward and wanted to stop Fang Tian, ​​"Sir, be careful..."

"Shh." York put his hand on Walter's shoulder and whispered: "Keep your voice down, you said it, the sound will attract the attention of the vines."

Walter immediately reached out and covered his mouth.

"this……"

Walter's eyes widened. He was surprised to see Fang Tian walking into the canyon ahead without protection, while the vines on the side turned a deaf ear to him.

How did he do it?

Walter was extremely confused.

Fang Tian turned sideways, pressed against a wall, and slowly moved forward. He felt a strange spiritual wave coming from the depths of the canyon in front of him.

The source of the fluctuation is not far away, and you can reach it just by walking this distance.

Strangely, Yu Xuan couldn't sense this wave, only she could detect it.

What is it?

Fang Tian barely walked through the narrow opening in front, stepped forward, and struggled to push aside the vines blocking the way.

After spending a lot of effort to deal with the vines at the entrance of the canyon, Fang Tian frowned tightly again when he saw the open space in front of him.

The narrow canyon mouth corresponds to a valley. Except for this narrow entrance, the canyon is surrounded by cliffs covered with climbing vines.

The ground of the canyon was covered with dense red insect eggs.

Fang Tian wasn't sure if they were insect eggs, but they looked similar.

Each egg is more than one meter tall, and an adult can hold it with open hands.

Fang Tian can be sure of one thing, the mental fluctuations he sensed before are from these insect eggs.

Why are there these strange eggs here?

After observing the surroundings, Fang Tian walked forward carefully, squatted down and began to check these insect eggs.

They are still alive.

There is a tiny crack above the egg, which rises and falls rhythmically, as if life is being nurtured in the egg, and it is breathing through this crack.

In the canyon, these eggs and creepers coexist harmoniously, which means that they belong to the same biological species?

Fang Tian thought about it and tried to reach out and touch the egg.

It was a little slippery to the touch, and the egg was covered with a layer of mucus.

When touched by the hand, the skin of the outer circle of insect eggs reacted and began to shrink slightly.

Fang Tian narrowed his eyes and took out a small dagger. Just as he was about to try to break the egg open to see what was inside and find some clues.

As soon as the dagger was extended, Fang Tian suddenly heard a strange click in his ear.

Looking up, Fang Tian's face darkened immediately. He didn't bother to use the dagger to crack the eggs, but immediately lowered his body and crouched beside the eggs, trying to hide his body with the help of the eggs.

Fang Tian carefully stuck his head out and looked outside.

Clinging to the cliff was a giant red rockworm reptile with a red sharp horn on its head. It was leaving a cave on the cliff, revealing half of its body.
