Chapter 62: Controlling the Tianshui Centipede
The blue light reflected on the top wall of the cave, as if inlaid with colorful gems, but Liang Qu did not notice the fatal crisis hidden in the gems.
Too subtle, too quick.
The attacker blended into the surrounding environment, and the attack was as fast and violent as lightning. He could only catch a glimpse of a blur of light and shadow with his peripheral vision.
Immediately afterwards, Liang Qu felt his shoulders sink, and another black shadow flew out, colliding directly with the incoming black shadow, knocking the attacker away.
When Liang Qu came back to his senses, he found that the fist that had been on his shoulder had disappeared, leaving only six small footprints on his shoulder.
He didn't react, but his fist did!
The fist and the shadow fell to the ground together, and the carapace collided with the stone, making a metallic crisp sound.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, the attacker swung his legs to escape. He had already prepared his fist and jumped in front of the black shadow. He waved his giant claw and clamped one end of the black shadow.
The black shadow curled up and opened its mouthparts in an attempt to bite back, but another giant turtle clamped its neck.
The power of the fist completely crushed the intruder, its claws opened, and the black shadow's entire body was forced to unfold. It struggled violently, and the middle body kept rising and shrinking, but it was powerless.
After subduing the intruder, he moved his six legs with his fists and quickly came to Liang Qu. He raised his pincers high, as if holding silk and satin to offer to the gods.
Liang Qu, who had regained consciousness, was covered in cold sweat. He was really startled by the sudden black shadow. The underwater danger was really hard to guard against.
Liang Qu brought his fist close to some glowing vines, and squatted down to find that the shadow was a huge centipede. The crystal-clear carapace was like a sapphire, complementing the blue water waves, and his whole body exuded a dangerous aura.
Water centipede!
Liang Qu became more and more frightened, he knew this kind of creature.
A highly poisonous centipede that lives in the water has an astonishing bite. It only needs to grow to three inches long. A bite from it will kill an ordinary person within a few seconds. It is a poisonous insect that everyone is afraid of.
The one in front of me is six inches long, which is wider than the distance between the index finger and the thumb of an open hand. Even though I have become a warrior, I am afraid that I will not get any benefits from being bitten.
"Well done Fist!"
Liang Qu reached around the centipede and tapped the back of his fist.
The encouraged fist lifted the water centipede higher.
"Water centipede... can it be controlled?"
Liang Qu became interested in the struggling water centipede.
Now that his skill has greatly increased, he has freed up mental space to control new water beasts.
For fishing, immobilizing and fattening catfish is more than enough. In this case, the focus of control should be on improving combat effectiveness.
But Liang Qu's mental strength only had an extra margin for "immobility". It was not the immobility of 3.5 meters now, but the Taihua Crocodile of less than 2 meters back then.
It is impossible to control the spirits with such a margin, and it is easy to be turned into a fool, and even a big fish is useless.
That venomous water bug is the best choice.
poison.
The most efficient way for the weak to defeat the strong.
The water centipede in front of them is six inches long. As long as the defense is broken, ordinary warriors will drink a pot. The key is that it is small and not as strange as a fist. It is difficult to hide and can be carried with you at any time.
Liang Qu searched nearby and found a sharp stone. He tried to cut his finger, but the stone fell apart, leaving only a shallow wound on his finger.
Hiss, ordinary stones are no longer useful after leather refining.
You have to find time to buy a dagger from Senior Brother Lu.
Liang Qu felt helpless and struggled to squeeze out a few drops of blood from the small wound and spread it evenly on his fingers, then let his fist flatten the centipede to the ground.
The back of the six-inch long water centipede was too narrow, so Liang Qu had to stack three fingers together to form a pin character and draw a narrow water symbol on its back.
Zeding radiates light.
The blood-colored water talisman instantly overshadowed the ripples in the stone cave and slowly seeped into the water centipede's body.
The water centipede was stimulated, and its body curled up, covering it from head to tail, closing every inch, and turned into a round blue bead, rolling along the low-lying ground in the stone cave to the end.
A strong but bearable stinging sensation hit from the depths of Liang Qu's mind. He squatted on the ground and covered his head to endure it.
When he regained consciousness, the spiritual connection in his mind was almost filled up. Although there was still a little left, the remaining one could probably control a small fish, with or without it.
What's going on, controlling a water centipede takes up so much space? Like a crocodile?
Communicate with Zeding.
[The water beast Sky Water Centipede has been controlled and can evolve. 】
Tianshui centipede, not water centipede?
Liang Qu was surprised. The name displayed on Zeding had always been what everyone commonly called it, just like Taihua Crocodile was Taihua Crocodile and nothing else.
Why is this water centipede called the Tianshui centipede?
The focus of Liang Qu's reading in the past two days was the six-volume "Annotated Edition of Hao Mutang Miscellaneous Notes". He had generally browsed through it and had never heard of Tianshui Centipede.
As if in response to doubts, Ze Ding glowed in his mind.
[Tianshui Centipede: The water centipede is nourished by water ganoderma, and the warrior's flesh and blood are nourished. When a mutation occurs, a thousand points of water essence can be consumed to make the sky water centipede evolve into a large-winged sky water centipede. 】
Wori, a thousand points of water essence!
It has evolved more than fists.
The fist is already a spirit, so the Tianshui Centipede is also a spirit, or even better?
Liang Qu was overjoyed. He didn't expect that he would control another little monster by mistake. No wonder he was so small, but the mental strength he needed was comparable to that of an adult Taihua crocodile.
It was the flesh and blood of the warrior in the message, which Liang Qu didn't quite understand.
He knew about the water Ganoderma. Apart from the water Ganoderma as big as a human head, he saw many bare roots nearby, which were obviously small Ganoderma eaten by the water centipede.
Warrior's flesh and blood...
Liang Qu picked up the blue bead on the ground with his index and middle fingers and gently pinched it. In an instant, the blue bead stretched out and turned into a six-inch long centipede with blue armor on its back and a metallic luster!
The centipede raised its upper body, its mouthparts were ferocious, and it was extremely majestic. After careful inspection, the part clamped by the fist was not damaged at all, and the shell was also as hard as iron.
"You are so majestic, so I will call you Awei."
The Tianshui centipede's centipede trembled and turned in Liang Qu's palm.
"Where is the human-shaped thing you ate?"
Under the communication of thoughts, Awei, who opened his spiritual wisdom, easily understood Liang Qu's meaning. He rotated his upper body and pointed to a certain direction in the stone cave.
With the faint light of the vines, Liang Qu found that there was a narrow crack there, and he had to turn sideways to enter, and it was full of moss.
Having learned from the previous experience, Liang Qu asked Quan and Awei to go in first to explore the way, and then try to squeeze in after there was no problem.
He tightened his waist and abdomen, and slid in with the wetness of the moss.
He stood outside the crack and couldn't move, and wanted to slide in, but he couldn't do it. It was too wide, and he couldn't use his strength to turn sideways.
The fat catfish floated on the water, and couldn't even get on the platform, looking at the stone and sighing.
Entering the crack, it was very narrow at first, and after walking a few steps, he came to a very small space of about two or three square meters, where there were also glowing vines.
Under the vines, a skeleton covered with moss sat cross-legged there.
The skeleton hung its head, its teeth were incomplete, and half of its jawbone fell off, leaving a sinister smile.
