Different from the version in the fairy tale, Nidhogg actually went crazy while gnawing on the roots of the world tree. After that, the black dragon turned into a monster that only knew destruction and killing, and it gnawed It is nowhere else but a nerve line of the eldest son.
Its lair was located just above the node of a part of the brain tissue of the eldest son, this unlucky guy, it chose to nest on a super powerful psychic energy transmitter, which was doomed from the beginning to a difficult end. Even if Nidhogg didn't touch the vines and source blood spreading from the ground, sooner or later he would go crazy listening to the whispers of the eldest son in the dream.
Hao Ren left Anthony, Y'zaks and his daughter on the surface to wait, and then led the others into the huge crypt under Nidhogg's corpse.
This is not the first time he has been in close contact with the deep organs of the eldest son, so the discomfort brought to him by the strange and depressing environment is not as strong as before. When he was advancing in the crypt, he could calm down and While observing the surrounding situation, he introduced his research results on this super demigod creature to Galazore.
"The firstborn's large tentacles can sometimes be several kilometers wide, but small tentacles like nerve bundles may only be a few meters in diameter or less. I guess this crypt leads directly to brain tissue, so it's basically all nerves. line," Hao Ren pointed to the winding vines or tentacles on the four walls of the cave, while paying attention to the road under his feet, "The eldest son's nerve conduction method is very strange, and it does not completely follow the laws of the universe. Part of his nerve conduction is even Faster than the speed of light, a nerve impulse can be sent instantly to all the ends of the tentacles."
Galazore nodded slightly: "Because it's quite huge."
"That's right, it's quite huge. A mature eldest son can live in symbiosis with the planet. He can penetrate the mantle and crust of the entire planet, and soak the core in the core to absorb nutrients. Such a huge body, if there is no faster than the speed of light He can’t even think about the neural activity,” Hao Ren shrugged, “but I still have to say one thing: regular eldest sons don’t have the ability to jump into hyperspace with huge objects. Their mission is to protect the ecological environment. System, Ygudora Hill is quite a strange individual."
"Pay attention to the surrounding area," Vivienne reminded aloud, she had already smelled the surging breath of origin blood, and had a rather dangerous feeling, "If you find any tentacles moving, please tell me immediately."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Nangong Wuyue exclaiming in surprise: "Ah! It seems that a tentacles around me just retracted all of a sudden!"
The exclamation of the sea demon girl immediately shocked everyone, and Nangong Sanba immediately raised his crossbow: "Where is it..."
Nangong Wuyue's whole snake swelled up, but after trembling for a few seconds, it suddenly let go: "Ah, I seem to have read it wrong, it was my own tail just now..."
"You must have poured that mouthful of dishwashing liquid into your brain!" Hao Ren was immediately bearded and stared at by this cowardly sea snake, and he slapped the opponent's tail, "The thing that reminds you is not to scare yourself!"
The siren girl's interruption made the atmosphere of the team a little tense. Walking in a closed crypt is enough to make people feel aggrieved, and this crypt is full of tentacles-like plant vines. Make the atmosphere feel depressive with five plus signs, and finally there is a sea monster next to you who will startle at any time and turn yourself into a big snake pill to scare people... To be honest, Hao Ren is the only one who has been scared so far. It was the voice of May.
But soon he was scared a second time.
He found that the ground under his feet suddenly cracked countless cracks, the entire crypt collapsed in an instant, and the rock formation below seemed to disappear suddenly. Everyone followed closely and fell into the endless abyss. The molten core of the earth that emits fiery light!
This sudden change caused Hao Ren's brain to froze for a moment. He almost reflexively wanted to exclaim, but at the moment when his body was out of balance, he felt a sudden surge of clear water in his spiritual world. In his vision, he saw the smiling face of Raven 12345 flashing past, and the goddess sister grinned at him, showing eight big white teeth, and raised her thumb: "I love you."
All the hallucinations dissipated, and Hao Ren felt a real touch in his hand. He suddenly woke up and found that he was holding Lily's tail tightly: this should be caught by the momentary conditioned reflex of the body's imbalance just now.
On the other hand, Lily stared blankly at the front with wide-eyed eyes, with no focus in her sight. Not only Lily, but also Nangong Sanba and Nangong Wuyue next to her. Only Vivian turned her head slowly, her eyes dimly looking at this side: "Illusion."
A low growl suddenly sounded in the cave, and Galazore uttered two powerful words in Draconic: "Duva-Zada!"
The powerful Longwei swept everything with a crushing posture. Lily and Nangong brothers and sisters woke up instantly. Nangong Sanba was still a little confused after waking up. Heretics are still retreating quickly! My uncle said that if you surrender, you will surrender! I, Nangong Sanba, have always been aboveboard... ah, why are you all back?"
"It's a hallucination," Hao Ren said with lingering fear. "The eldest son may have muttered something in his sleep just now... Thanks to Galazore and I being demigods, we have resisted this wave of mental shock. We should be fine now."
Lily tugged at Hao Ren's sleeve: "Landlord, landlord..."
Hao Ren glanced at the husky girl: "What?"
"I don't think the hallucinations have faded," Lily said cautiously, with tears in her eyes, "I don't know why, but my tail hurts!"
Hao Ren was sweating coldly on the spot: "...it's because you have two minds, and the hallucinations last a long time, and the pain will definitely disappear after a while!"
"oh."
Although this hallucinatory intrusion did not cause any substantial damage, everyone was more vigilant when they continued to move forward, and a sense of danger emerged in Hao Ren's heart.
He understands part of the biological characteristics of the eldest son - he knows that although the eldest son can interfere with the mind of mortals with powerful spiritual power and drag ordinary people into its twisted dreams, but around its brain nucleus should be safe instead, because the eldest son has plural The brain nuclei of these brain nuclei cooperate with each other to work, and there is a finely coordinated thought wave conduction between them. Due to the self-protection mechanism common to all living things, this crucial and sophisticated thinking organ should be completely closed, not only physically, but also mentally.
That is to say, under normal circumstances, the eldest son will never directly use his own brain nucleus to launch a mental attack on the outside world, which may interrupt the coordination state between the multiple brain nuclei. The main way for it to release mental power is from the large ganglion The extended tentacles are special mental wave release organs.
Hallucinations occurred near the brain nucleus, and Hao Ren had a speculation about it: some organs of Ugudora Hill seemed to be losing control.
His heart suddenly skipped a beat: Is this the mechanism by which the normal eldest son (like Zhuomu) transforms into the frenzied eldest son (World Destroyer)? !
"This should be the cavity you mentioned," Galazore's voice interrupted Hao Ren's thinking. It turned out that the team had come to an end in the deep vine crypt, and there was a wide hemispherical cavity in front of it. "Front The biological tissue looks like some kind of core, is it the brain nucleus?"
Hao Ren looked up and saw a sunken structure in the center of the wide hemispherical cavity. The sunken area was filled with slowly wriggling red liquid, and in the pool of origin blood was soaked a ten-meter-high, The biological tissue emitting a faint red light, with countless tentacles extending from the surrounding of this biological tissue, extending all the way into the stone wall around the cavity.
He was familiar with this scene and couldn't be more familiar with it. He had seen it in Holletta's big crypt.
"What you see is not the brain nucleus itself, but a large node, but some of the large nodes are the containers of the brain nucleus, and that organ is hidden under the glowing connective skin."
Hao Ren walked forward while talking, and stopped half a meter away from the source blood pool. He observed carefully and confirmed that there was indeed a brain nucleus inside this large node: right in this mass of creatures The base of the organization, an irregular connective grid, is flashing red light regularly. Under the red light, a vague spherical shadow can be seen, and the data terminal has read a powerful mental signal from there.
"Is this thing controlling Ugudora Hill's activities?" Galazore looked curiously at the strange organ called "brain nucleus", "It's really amazing..."
"This is one of the brain nuclei. A mature eldest son will have several to more than a dozen brain nuclei. These brain nuclei are connected together to form a complete brain, but each brain nucleus can be completely independent. thinking activities."
"This is the source of the corruption?" Nangong Sanba rubbed his chin, "Do a surgical operation to remove it? Then other normal brain nuclei can take over the tentacles of the corrupted part, and Ugudora Hill should be able to wake up. "
There was nothing wrong with Nangong Sanba's analysis, but Hao Ren took a closer look and shook his head: "No, something is wrong here—this is a healthy organ!"
