Chapter 227 Brain-Eating Worms and Psychic Progress (4/4)
Yin En used his sword to open the chest cavity of the deformed man, and found that the parasite was not 'wrapped' on the vertebrae, but that it was part of the spinal marrow - it wrapped the deformed man's vertebrae, just like a nerve structure.
The brown-red worms spread all over the body of the aberrant person, wrapping around the stomach and penetrating into the intestines, taking over the digestive system.
And at the top is the original brain of the aberrant person.
——This parasite has completely replaced the neurological structure of the aberrant person and completely controlled the body!
The original deformed man has only one body left, and its spinal cord and entire nervous system have been devoured and replaced by parasites!
Narrowing his eyes, Yin En raised the corner of his mouth. He raised his sword with interest and uncovered the skull of the aberrant man, which was still intact, revealing the inside of the brain cavity, which was full of sticky mucus and weird abscesses.
.
The young man couldn't help but exclaimed.
Because what appeared in front of him was a winding, bulging cyst that filled the entire skull, and was shaped like a giant tapeworm with a brain!
The giant brown tapeworm is still alive at the moment, constantly expanding and contracting. Its outer layer is covered with mucus, forming a thin film similar to the brain-blood barrier... And based on the complex brain sulci and cortex, each one looks quite familiar.
brain structure.
Yin En is almost certain that this strange giant parasitic tapeworm has completely replaced the brain function of the aberrant person.
In other words, this parasite is a 'parasite brain' that eats the host's brain and replaces it!
"Named Brain-eating Insect."
Yin En named this virulent parasite in the silver chip.
He didn't feel sick, but instead crouched down and carefully observed the structure of this brain-eating worm.
The scanning function of the silver chip is very easy to use and will provide many specific results that require detailed detection and analysis. However, it is not omniscient and omnipotent, and many of the information it explains are not complete.
Yin En thought at first that this was because the chip scanned the memories of two powerful men in the world, Yin Naiga II and Hilliard, the well-informed emperor and the royal knight, so he could be almost omniscient.
But later he discovered that many of the evaluations inside the chip were not subjective, but very neutral... No matter what data or conclusions they were, they were not like the results that people on the continent of Terra could draw.
On the contrary, it is like... some kind of 'observer' perspective that transcends the entire civilization.
Yin En has many guesses about this, but these guesses are not important at the moment - there will be plenty of time to prove those things in the future, but the most important thing now is the strange parasite in front of him.
"This parasite can actually be regarded as a material for potions. I don't know what abilities the sublimated ones sublimated by this kind of blood will have. Is it parasitic? Who is it? How can something as big as a human be parasitic..."
At first, he just asked and answered questions to himself to resolve his confusion, but as he spoke, Yin En couldn't help but frown: "Wait?"
"The process of merging the indigenous great shaman and the crocodile dragon into one body...the flesh-and-blood human form that appears in the flesh of the crocodile dragon..."
"Could it be that……"
After a pause, the young man shook his head: "Maybe it's just a coincidence, but let's write down the doubts first."
With this thought in mind, after stabbing the brain-shaped parasite to death with a sword, Yin En looked around the entire hall, focusing on the dark cultivation chambers: "Obviously, this aberrant man crawled out of those temporary cultivation chambers.
——Although most of them are teratomas, as long as you culture them enough times, you can also find a few that are just severely deformed."
"It is a pity that these aberrant people are too close to the river of parasites. As soon as they come out of the cultivation chamber and drink water, they will be parasitized, their brains will be devoured, and they will become the bodies of brain-eating worms."
Although Yin En still doesn't quite understand why such weird World of Warcraft-level parasites appear in the indigenous holy land and the underground ruins of pre-era civilization, the danger and weirdness here are definitely beyond everyone else's imagination.
He must find other partners immediately, especially sharks that move in the water, so that they cannot be infected by parasites.
Now that you think about it, start taking action.
But before that, you still need to prepare some things.
After finding a bonfire that was probably lit by aberrations or brain-eating insects, Yin En took a short rest and opened his precognitive vision again.
This time, there was no life around - not even the shadow of the stone pillar above his head.
The entire interior of the cavity is gray and white, and only the cultivation chamber itself is a bluish object, with a lot of scattered source matter inside.
But at this moment, Yin En was somewhat surprised to find that the physical strength required to open the precognitive vision had increased.
It was originally the physical strength required by an ordinary person to punch one punch, but now it suddenly increased to the physical strength required to punch several punches.
"Is it the influence of the special psychic field here?"
After reaching the first level, Yin En almost never suffered from the consumption of precognitive vision.
For ordinary people, the price of spiritual energy is difficult to pay, but for the sublime, it is just a matter of breathing.
It's just that the signal that the consumption has increased several times is dangerous and represents a huge abnormality.
"It's not like that."
Shaking his head, Yin En denied this speculation. He thought of another more likely scenario: "Could it be that... my spiritual power has improved again?"
——Because I personally witnessed the changes in the South China Sea and the ruins of the previous era, my spiritual power improved due to my 'curiosity'... and therefore began to gradually transform.
If you think about it carefully, this is the most likely possibility.
When he saw the doors of the underground ruins opening, he saw those illusions that seemed to come from the past...
"As long as I continue to explore the ruins, my spiritual energy will probably be able to complete a transformation."
"Perhaps, in the future, in addition to predicting, I will also be able to know some events in the past?"
Feeling confident in his heart, Yin En is increasingly looking forward to future explorations.
Precognitive vision is the foundation for him to settle down on the continent of Terra, and it is also necessary for his continued growth - if this psychic energy can become stronger, then he will not let go of the opportunity to make it stronger.
What's more, he wanted to do that in the first place... wanted to explore.
As for the increase in consumption, it is just a small price to pay.
In short.
In this dangerous underground, Yin En can't guarantee that he can get food... Parasites are the last option.
All of his physical supplies currently can only rely on the potions in his pocket and the source of essence stored in the core of the ancient dragon.
Of course, in addition to these things that had been prepared long ago, the young man also had an unexpected reserve.
That is the crystallization of Crocodile Dragon's brain.
The brain crystal of the mountain tide spirit Swamp Crocodile.
