"Quick! Get up!"

"There is a wave of alien beasts outside!"

"what?"

"Look outside! There are many strange beasts..."

Liu Li and Gu Ting hurriedly called other worms, and in less than three minutes, those turbulent tide-like beasts approached extremely fast, rolling up the rolling yellow sand on the planet Herdik, and their thinThe black limbs propped up on the ground, they can ignore the obstacles of the desert, as if they were flat ground, and the dripping black mucus "sizzling" fell to the ground, but they bred wantonly because there were no plants.

On the planet Herdik of rare plants, strange beasts are immortal, this is their most free paradise.

Campbell looked out the window, and within a short while, the entire area of the hut below was almost surrounded by the group of strange beasts. His face was gloomy. Under such an environment and number, it was not easy to break out of the encirclement.

"Why are there so many alien beasts..." Suo Xun glanced outside, even if he turned into an insect and went out to resist, he would be completely swallowed by the army of alien beasts in less than ten minutes.

There are too many strange beasts, they are crowded and shoved together in black, their heads overlap each other, black thick water flows from their huge mouths, like a flowing city wall, the specific number is as many asI can't count it for a while. Compared with this moment, what have seen and heard on planet N923 before is nothing more than a little bit.

Liu Li clenched her fists nervously: "What should I do?"

"It's okay." Arnold, who got up late, was not worried at all. He looked at the other worms with stiff faces, and said in a low voice, "It's okay, they won't take the initiative to hurt insects..."

"It's okay? They are strange beasts!"

Englie frowned. As a female who had participated in the Imperial Legion, he knew how terrifying the alien beasts in front of the battlefield were. The alien beasts alone were not to be feared, but the tide of alien beasts outside the window was the most terrifying.The existence of the fear of insects, especially in such a desert environment, without the obstruction of plants, the only thing that can delay the reproduction of alien beasts is the life of insects!

Engel's voice was cold, "Don't you know how many army females the alien beasts have killed on the battlefield?"

Campbell whispered, "Engrid!"

"Tsk..." Engrie exhaled, and he took a step back silently, but his heart was full of anger at Arnold's understatement.

Gu Ting: "So what's going on?"

Arnold glanced at Engrie, "In the beginning, there were only alien beasts on the planet Herdik. As for how the alien beasts appeared on other planets step by step, you should ask the group of idiots who took the alien beasts away for research.I can only say that it is the evil result of their own creation."

Arnold's long life has allowed him to see a lot of things, and even because of the long time, it is difficult for him to regenerate his compassion for other insects. As for saving Liu Li and becoming a partner with her, it has probably consumed him.Not much emotion left.

He looked at Gu Ting, "Gu Ting, come with me."

"where to?"

"Go and meet them..."

"They?" Crystal suddenly said, with an unbelievable look on his face, "You mean strange beasts? They will hurt mother!"

"No!" Arnold snapped, "With me here, I will protect Gu Ting."

"Don't get excited," Gu Ting shook his head at the insects. He looked at them and said, "Do you still remember what happened on planet N923? At that time, Gran brought strange beasts, but they didn't take the initiative.Attacked me, and even on the way I was taken back by them, a strange beast was locked up with me, nothing happened at that time."

Gu Ting wasn't sure if it was because Gran controlled the beast or for other reasons.

After all, he didn't feel aggressive in the strange beast, so he was also willing to trust Arnold.

Campbell took a deep look at Gu Ting, "Be careful."

"Well, I will." The young male walked up to Arnold, "Let's go."

Arnold: "Yeah."

The alien beasts guarding the underground house are very polite, they just surround there quietly like a wall without making any noise, and even closed their mouths that were originally drooling.Except for the uncontrollable black slime that falls on the ground and generates new individuals, they are silent like boulders that are blown by the wind and rain.

The door was opened, and Gu Ting, who was wearing a scarf, followed Arnold out of the range of the underground house, and gradually stepped on the floating gravel.

Arnold was in front, and the bright stars cast a flowing halo on his black hair.

He walked towards the leader of the beast—it was a bigger guy, several meters tall when he bent his body. Seeing Arnold approaching, the leader of the beast slowly lowered his head.

Gu Ting watched the scene almost holding his breath. The black-haired male worm reached out and touched the skin of the strange beast. The black mucus consciously bypassed the male worm's white and thin fingers.There is no movement in the sound, as if touching a piece of ordinary leather.

Arnold said to the beast: "Why did you come so fast? Didn't I say that I would take him to see you?"

The strange beast moved its head, as if it could understand the words of the black-haired male, and a "ho ho" came out of its half-open mouth, which was a response to Arnold's question.

Arnold asked one by one——

"Don't worry, is there any guarded beast left in Quicksand?"

"Have you avoided the surveillance of outsiders as I said? That's fine..."

"No other abnormalities?"

"okay, I get it."

"I originally wanted to take him to see you after dawn. Since you have come, let's do it as soon as possible."

"I know."

"You..." Gu Ting stared at the tide of alien beasts, they were still as they were in his memory, dark and strange, like monsters that had not fully evolved.

"Come here." Arnold said lightly.

Gu Ting walked over according to his words, and as the distance approached, he clearly felt the restlessness of the tide of alien beasts.

"Ho...ho..."

The beasts neighed with difficulty, which looked a little weird in the dark. The hoarse and elongated tone was like the cold wind on the planet Herdik, agitating "swish".

Standing some distance away from the door, Engrie's arms had bulging veins. Seeing a strange beast raise its forelimbs, he anxiously wanted to rush out to block Little Jewel's thin body.

"stop"

The spider legs behind Campbell moved out in an instant, and immediately stopped Engrie's footsteps.

Engley turned his head to look at the silver-haired female, "Campbell! That's dangerous! Those are alien beasts! Have you forgotten how terrifying alien beasts are? Countless insects died in their hands. How can you safely hand over the little gem to me?"To a guy you've only known for a day?"

"Hey, what do you mean by 'a guy you've only known for a day'! Arnold has been looking for zero eight! And Arnold is very strong, even you can't beat him!"

As the most loyal "Arnold Blow", Liu Li couldn't tolerate any insects speaking ill of his partner. He immediately retorted: "Besides, if you look carefully, those strange beasts didn't hurt Arnold, so naturally they wouldn't hurt Ling Ba."

Campbell also nodded: "Engrie, calm down."

"Why do you tell me to calm down?"

Englie had seen the horrors on the battlefield, and he had a strong hatred for alien beasts. Even though he knew what Arnold said just now might be the fact that alien beasts appeared on other planets, but even so, those who died onThe military female in the mouth of the alien beast is innocent...

Campbell said: "You should trust him and trust the decisions he makes."

Englie took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and finally relaxed his fingers after a few blinks, and smiled self-deprecatingly, "I seem to suddenly understand why Little Gem chose you......"

"Why?" Liu Li, who is not too serious to watch the excitement, immediately poked her head. Suo Xun and Jingjing, who had been quiet before, turned their heads together, and their eyes fell on Englie. Even Campbell seemed to be waiting for someoneAnswer.

Engley smiled wryly, "Why else? Isn't this already obvious?"

Liu Li was thoughtful, "So it's because of unconditional trust..."

This time Engley did not speak, but turned his gaze back to Little Gem——

The distance between Gu Ting and the strange beast is very close, so close that it is only half the length of an arm.

The strange beast that was obviously the leader turned its head, it obviously had no eyes, but Gu Ting could feel that the other party was "looking" at him.He pursed his lips and said unnaturally, "You, how are you?"

The strange beast was silent for a moment, then suddenly bent down to the ground, exposing its entire back in front of the young male.

"What is this for?" He took half a step back in surprise.

"They invite you to sit on it." Arnold patted the other beast beside him, and the beast immediately bent its limbs and bent down, and Arnold turned over neatly.

The slime with corrosive effect consciously avoids his body, like a horse most reassuring to its master.

Gu Ting hesitated for a moment. Encouraged by Arnold's eyes, he raised his hand to touch the body of the alien beast, and straddled it while holding his breath—he received the same treatment as Arnold.It avoided the limbs of the young male, and then the strange beast straightened up steadily, and immediately asked Gu Ting to raise his overall sight.

Liu Li ran out of the house, he looked up at Arnold, "Are you leaving?"

Arnold: "Well, take him somewhere."

"Okay." Liu Li shrugged. He didn't ask Arnold where he was going, but waved and said, "Come back early."

"it is good."

The next moment, before Gu Ting and Campbell bid farewell, the alien beast swarm seemed to have received some order, and suddenly stood upright, rushing and fading on the yellow-brown gravel, just like when they came.

In the blink of an eye, only a piece of smoke and dust was left.

Suo Xun raised his hand and waved away the sand in front of him, he was a little stunned by Liu Li's reaction, "Don't you even ask where they are going? Are you so relieved?"

Liu Li walked into the house first, yawning as she walked, "I can tell at a glance that you guys have never been in a relationship, even if you are a partner, you should give him some privacy. Besides, my Arnold is so powerful, how could I not?"Don't worry? What I should worry about is the worm who wants to harm him!"

A long time ago, Liu Li would worry about whether it would be dangerous for a male Arnold to wander among the stars and find insects. It was not until other forces in the black market came to make trouble. At that time, Liu Li knew that Arnold, who seemed weak and frail, was so powerful that he evenIt has gone beyond the category of advanced female insects.

Therefore, Liu Li thinks that as long as it is not a big event of a cosmic explosion, his Arnold should be feared by other insects.

Campbell looked at the direction where the smoke and dust disappeared, his scarlet pupils glowed strangely in the night, but the horror was completely washed away by his cold and calm demeanor.

Engley also looked away, and whispered to Campbell: "Are you so relieved?"

"Don't worry." Campbell looked far away, as if recalling something.

Engley grinned silently, and he suddenly said, "Do you still remember what the male worm said tonight?"

"what?"

"Things from another world." Engrie frowned. He hadn't found a chance to ask before. At this moment, after meeting Campbell's eyes that seemed to know everything, he questioned, "You already knew?"

At that time on the table, when talking about "another world", except for Campbell, the other worms all had a certain expression change, but Campbell's reaction was so calm that Engley, who had known him for many years, almost caught the doubt in an instant..

"Hmm..." The silver-haired female worm replied, "I know."

"How did you know?"

Under the night, Campbell hooked the corner of his mouth, "You should be able to guess the change in my breath, right?"

After he finished speaking, he walked into the room, and Engrie, who was standing there, first sniffed vigorously, then frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly cursed in a low voice, and after a while he showed a helpless smile, "No wonder..."

There is no secret between the female and male insects with combined mental power, and Campbell is almost marinated by Gu Ting's pheromones, that is, they often stay with Little Gem, and they have gotten used to each other's breath a few years agoSo much so that Engrie didn't think of this answer immediately.

He snorted and walked into the room in relief, but Crystal, who was standing blankly by the side, felt as if he had missed something, and couldn't help saying to Suo Xun beside him, "What are they talking about?"

"Oh, it has something to do with you?" Suo Xun flipped over the Byakugan and walked in. In short, he was not happy to see Crystal's face that looked exactly like himself.

crystal:……

On the other side, the strange beast ran wildly in the dark with Arnold and Gu Ting on its back.

The temperature on the planet Herdik under the night is not high, and it can even be said to be bitingly cold. When the rushing alien beasts reached their destination, Gu Ting's hands and feet were almost as cold as ice.

"Huh, it's so cold." Gu Ting rubbed his fingers, originally he just sighed subconsciously, but the next moment a small strange beast leaned over, just blocking the cold wind blowing from one side for him.

Gu Ting was taken aback, and he turned his head to look at the strange beast that was half a head taller than him - the appearance of the strange beast at close range can only be described by words like "weird" and "ugly".In the various materials I have seen, the words used to define the appearance of alien beasts are always the same. "Weird" and "ugly" are the most basic descriptions.Beasts, of course, this is mostly the behavior of nobles.

But at this moment, Gu Ting could see from such an unattractive head that he was careful to please.

Gu Ting smiled slightly, "Thank you."

And the thanked beast let out a vague neigh from its mouth, straightened up, trying to block more cold wind.

"It seems that you get along well?" Arnold turned his head and saw Gu Ting and Yi Beast leaning together. He didn't wait for the young male to answer, and waved at each other, "Come here, come here.”

Gu Ting walked in according to his words, and the strange beast beside him followed suit, trying to shoulder his duty of keeping out the wind.

Arnold was standing in front of a slightly sunken sand. As Gu Ting approached, the gravel on the surface began to float, and soon a few black heads popped out, which were those who had been buried in the quicksand.Alien beast.

"Are they in there?" Gu Ting asked.

"Well. Their task is to guard this place and prevent other outsiders from approaching."

"What's down there?"

"Underneath is a tomb."

Gu Ting was taken aback, and murmured: "Whose tomb?"

The answer seemed to have appeared in his heart, and it wasn't until he heard Arnold's response that his heart finally fell into place.

Arnold said, "That's the grave of the Worm Mother and Yutan."

Before sacrificing himself, Jacques found a pure land on planet Herdik for the worm mother and Yutan. They buried the dead couple under the quicksand, and the alien beasts became the most loyal.The knights who guard here.

"Then why do the beasts guard this place? Do they have anything to do with the worm mother?" Gu Ting was full of doubts, and the only person who could give him the answer at this moment was Arnold.

Arnold rubbed his head, he took out two oxygen masks from his space button, and handed one to Gu Ting, "Put it on, I'll tell you the rest of the story later."

Gu Ting, who was wearing an oxygen mask, looked into the quicksand, "Just go down here?"

"Ok."

After everything was ready, Arnold led Gu Ting and jumped down from the mouth of the quicksand, followed by the beasts. Almost in a breath, the dark color like a city wall disappeared immediately.

The flowing sand enveloped the foreign males and beasts, and soon darkness struck, completely covering their entire field of vision. Gu Ting could even feel the grit rubbing against his limbs through the not-so-thick clothes.The sense of flow is like being squeezed out bit by bit from a narrow, soft pipe.

puff.

The pressure suddenly decreased, Gu Ting felt that he was finally squeezed out by the narrow pipe, and the sense of volley increased instantly, his body subconsciously reversed the angle in mid-air, the tail of the scorpion was lightly raised, and following the rotation of his figure, he took light stepsIt fell to the ground, and the existence of the tail hook supported his balance even more.

When he stood still and raised his head, Arnold was already waiting aside.

Arnold: "Here it is."

Only then did Gu Ting have the time to look up, just watching, the surrounding environment gradually merged with his dream——

It was a huge bone nest buried in the ground by gravel. Those skeletons were extremely huge, and they overlapped each other to form the appearance of a palace.The pale golden bead like insect honey is transparent and bright, and it is the light source of the entire underground palace and tomb.

This is a leap from dream to reality, even without Arnold leading the way, Gu Ting, who was enveloped by a sense of familiarity, walked in on his own.

Under those giant skeletons, there is a small pile of bones placed in the center of the tomb, just like in a dream, with different colors and sizes. The bones from the two worms almost hug each other, quiet and lingering.

After walking a few steps quickly, Gu Ting half-knelt in front of those bone piles, the familiarity that originated in his blood made him unable to hold back his eyes for a long time.

"These are the bones of the worm mother and Utan..." Arnold said slowly, "Yutan died on the wasteland of Planet Heldek and was treated cruelly, so there are not many remains that can be recovered., but the worm mother has always believed that Yotan will live forever like the planet Herdik."

"What do you mean?" Gu Ting's fingers lightly covered the bone, and a trace of uncontrollable surprise flashed in his mind following Arnold's words.

"Didn't you ask me why the strange beast guards here?"

Arnold also walked to the bone pile step by step, while the beasts following him crawled quietly on the ground without making a sound.

Gu Ting heard the male worm behind him answer: "Because the strange beast is the incarnation of Yutan - the tragic death will get eternal life. This is a blessing and a curse at the same time. After all, there is no free lunch in the world, and a powerful blessing beyond the limit must be paid accordingly."price."

Gu Ting suddenly thought of some details that could link them together - the blue-blooded emperor scorpion was born with blue blood, and so was the alien beast; his father was Yutan, so he could absorb the blue blood in the alien beast core.Power; from the first time I saw the strange beast, they had no intention of harming him, and even called him "baby" hoarsely...

Yes, Gu Ting remembered, the vague calls from the alien beasts on planet N923 should be "baby" because he is their child.

"So...my father is a strange beast?"

Arnold is not used to the word "father", but he quickly reacted, and he explained: "No, it's different."

His eyes fell on the off-white pieces that looked like coccyx bones in the bone pile, "To a certain extent, the strange beasts are the embodiment of Yutan, but they are not the same as Yutan. They are endless and endless.They are even more low-level, unable to think for themselves, and all their behaviors are only out of instinct, that is, after so many years, they are gradually able to communicate with me."

"But they remember your breath, and the moment you board planet Herdik, they can feel your presence. For them, you are the only treasure that the beasts want to protect."

Even though they have no memory, no reason, no intelligence, they still remember their child, and even try to find and protect him.

At the same time, Yutan also transformed into a strange beast, and has been guarding the bone nest where the worm mother is hidden.

This is the answer to all the stories, and also the end of all the stories. The moment Arnold finished speaking, a gust of wind rose from the bone nest. Between the shaking gravel, Gu Ting felt that he heard the call from the worm mother.

"my child……"

The next moment, he was drawn into the familiar darkness again, but this time he saw not only the worm mother, but also a strange and tall male worm.
