Sanders set his eyes on the transparent observation box.
A turquoise viscous liquid creature like snot was slowly pulsing. Around the transparent observation box, some Axor blood essence was spilled, and the snot monster was running towards the food happily.
However, when the snot monster ran halfway, a thin white frost suddenly appeared on the wall of the observation box.
The temperature of the observation box began to drop sharply.
The snot monster immediately stopped its throbbing footsteps, and the body gradually changed. The original grainy skin became smooth, and there was a strange energy inside, which made its body slowly expand and finally turned into a circle. ball.
Like turquoise marbles.
"This is its stress form to the cold." Angel said, withdrew the chill from his fingertips, and observed that the temperature in the box gradually rose. The snot monster did not change its shape immediately, but waited for the frost mist in the observation box. After disappearing, it returned to the "tuo" shape.
The snot monster continued to climb to the position of the blood essence. At this time, a yellow and black poisonous bee was put into the observation box.
As soon as the snot monster sensed the fluctuation of the wings rubbing in the air, its body bloomed like a flower, forming a sea urchin-like shape. Green, as if smeared with venom.
"This is a state of alert for enemy insects." After Angel finished speaking, he took the poisonous bee away from the observation box.
Immediately afterwards, Angel conducted several consecutive experiments, including heat, drowning, strong wind... Physical shock and energy shock, etc.
Basically, snot monsters have different shapes in different situations.
"According to the current crisis, after it changes its form, it can minimize the damage caused to it by the outside world. It is judged that it should be a self-protection mechanism." Angel pondered: "This is more in line with the shapeshifting soft bug. Habits, but it may be insufficient to define it as an amoeba."
After careful observation, Saunders pondered for a moment, and reached out his hand to lightly tap the observation box.
Immediately inside the observation box, a large number of illusion nodes gathered together, and an insect-eating beast with a blue and purple skin descended from the sky, exuding a terrifying aura.
The snot monster was startled and changed immediately.
Like the venomous wasp before it, it became a turquoise sea urchin.
As the breath of the insect-eating beast became more intense and approached step by step, the snot monster began to slowly retreat. At this moment, a venomous wasp flew into the observation box with a buzzing sound.
The insect-eating beast stretched out its long pink tongue and directly rolled the poisonous bee into its stomach.
With the chewing sound of Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka Ka, the breath of the poisonous bee completely disappeared.
This scene startled the snotty.
Angel didn't understand what Sanders wanted to do at first, because this stress test against the enemy had been done before, I don't know why it was repeated
Just when Angel was puzzled, the worm-eater stretched out its long tongue and attacked the snot monster. After a few bangs, several cracks appeared on the wall of the observation box, which were all caused by the worm-eater's tongue attack. .
The snot monster showed amazing speed at this time, and its body was like a ball, spinning quickly to avoid it.
However, the observation box itself is not large. Even if the snot monster can avoid the attack of the insect-eating beast, as long as it cannot escape, it will eventually fall into the belly of the insect-eating beast.
Seeing the snot monster's form getting worse and worse, suddenly, Angel only felt a flash of light in front of him.
But I saw the sea urchin incarnated by the snot monster flying out the "needle" on its body, targeting the snot monster's tongue and eyes. At the same time, the snot monster turned into a silver-black thorn-like shape, and its entire body swelled at least three times, and stabbed violently at the cracks that the insect-eating beast had caused in the observation box.
Obviously, the snot monster was trying to escape through the crack and cut a hole.
However, the snot monster tried his best to break the observation box.
Seeing this scene, Sanders snapped his fingers lightly.
The insectivore itself is composed of illusion, so it dissipates with the fluctuation of sound illusion. At the same time, there are also the foul spit left by the insectivorous beasts in the observation box, and the cracks on the wall... These are all illusions.
It is precisely because the crack is an illusion, the snot monster wants to use this to dig a hole, but it is impossible.
Although Sanders revoked the illusion, he took out the "flying needle" left on the insectivorous beast.
He observed it carefully, and then handed it to Angel: "You can see for yourself."
Angel took the flying needle, although when he saw the flying needle before, as an alchemist, he already had a judgment in his heart. But when I actually took the real thing, I still felt a little surprised.
Hard, icy, with a metallic sheen under the light.
However, it is said that it is metal, but it is not, because there are obvious traces of biological tissue inside the flying needle. But when it was said that it was part of the slug, Angel really didn't see it.
It is very much like an intermediate product of biological refining.
"This is different from the spines it initially showed. When it felt a strong lethal threat, it changed some properties of its skin in order to survive." Sanders: "This is more in line with the amoeba Characteristics."
"And, you can see that it has just transformed into an awl shape, you should be able to feel that unique energy fluctuation."
Angel nodded: "Its skin has a little fluctuation similar to the nature of space."
"Yes, this special spatial fluctuation is also one of the characteristics of the amoeba." Sanders: "These two unique characteristics are in line with the elements of the amoeba. Therefore, it is basically certain that it It's a morphomorph."
"As for why its shape is different from other amoeba, it looks... weird." Sanders choked on the word 'disgusting' and paused for a moment: "Perhaps, it is also a self-protection mechanism."
As Angel said to Popota before, the deformed soft worm itself can be deformed at will, who can accurately describe its true shape
"If you're really uneasy, ask Kimberly or Isabel. In their era, the soft worms weren't extinct, and they might know something," Sanders suggested.
Although Saunders himself has used amoeba, but in the era when he started to rise, there were very few amoeba, and his knowledge in this regard is less than that of Kimberly and Isabel, who have lived longer than him. .
Angel nodded. Just in case, he decided to confirm it again.
When Angel was led by the cyborg to find Mrs. Kimberly, she was facing a lot of documents, her brows were furrowed, the magical forest between her hair was full of haze and mist, and the ghosts were hiding in one after another. At home, don't dare to probe out.
Besides Mrs. Kimberly, there was another person in the room, a soul to be precise.
Mollya.
After hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, both Mrs. Kimberly and Moria looked over.
Mrs. Kimberley put down the pen and looked at Angel: "Why are you here? I heard Natasha say that you have been at the testing site for a week, why don't you stay longer?"
Mrs. Kimberley's remarks did not contain any emotion, and Angel did not know whether she was sincerely suggesting or sarcastic.
But thinking about what Sanders said before, Kimberly has been bothered by the communication from various stations for several days recently because of her own affairs, Angel simply took the initiative to apologize first.
Mrs. Kimberly was stunned: "You said that little thing? I don't worry about it."
On the other side, Moriah chuckled: "Kimberly really wants you to stay for a while longer. These days, many people have proposed to restart the proving ground, and she has postponed it because you were inside. Now you Come out, she has no excuses."
A hundred things are left to be done, which means that everything has to be restarted, and the proving ground is naturally part of it. Mrs. Kimberly has a high enthusiasm for alchemy, but when it comes to handling the affairs of the entire Castle Black, she can push as much as she can, and be lazy as she can.
Angel hesitated for a moment: "How about I go in for two more days?"
"How do you say that the testing ground is like a prison." Kimberly waved: "Forget it, come out and come out, anyway, the mess here has to be dealt with."
Angel recalled the huge scale of the testing ground, and the accumulation of magic materials as if they didn't want money... If this is considered a mess, then he has nothing to say.
"Let's talk about business, you shouldn't be fine when you come here, right?" Kimberly looked at Angel.
Angel will show his intentions in the future.
After listening to this, Kimberly murmured, "I seem to have heard that the shape-shifting worms in the wizarding world of the Southern Region are extinct, but I didn't expect you to get them... I've seen not many shape-shifting worms, but not many. Liya seems to have been an auctioneer for a period of time a thousand years ago, she should have seen a lot of deformed soft bugs, you can take it out and take a look."
Angel put out the observation box, and at the same time recounted the experiments he had done before.
After Kimberly read it, she did not judge. But Moria looked at it for a while, then nodded without hesitation: "It is indeed a deformed soft bug, and it may be the best type of deformed soft bug."
It's hard to find the exact same thing in the world, there are differences after all. The same goes for the amoeba.
According to Moriah's explanation, there are actually good and bad types of deformed soft bugs. However, the definition of good and bad itself is a vague concept, and it all depends on the object of reference.
Shapeshifting worms are most useful to wizards for polymorphism. Therefore, the quality of the metamorphic soft bugs is determined by Transfiguration.
Transfiguration is a trick that can change physical appearance. Its introduction is: it can be as small as a mosquito or as big as a titan.
However, this introduction is just a rhetoric. There are not many people who can really use polymorphism to become as small as a mosquito and as big as a Titan.
The transformation techniques used by the vast majority of wizards can only be as small as the body of the Kura Kuka clan, and when they become larger, they are at most three or five times larger than normal humans.
But some are smaller than a mosquito, like dust; larger than a Titan, comparable to the Transfiguration of a mountain. However, very few reach this level.
There are two factors that determine the upper limit of Transfiguration.
The first is the energy background. The second is the quality of the amoeba.
