Anyone who likes to watch science fiction movies knows that in the first part of "Alien", there is a terrifying and abnormal alien creature-the facehugger.
Facehuggers are similar in appearance to spiders, with a long tail (erect organ) behind them. They like to attack humans, hug their faces, and ovulate into their bodies. They are very abnormal.
When attacking humans, facehuggers will suddenly jump up and attack the target's face. After hugging the human face, they will take the opportunity to insert their genitals deeply into the host's throat and ovulate into the human body.
Once a facehugger hugs your face, you are not far away from death, because their claws are similar to human palms. Once they hug your face, it is difficult to pull them off your face. If you pull them hard,
It will 100% tear your scalp and face apart, turning you into a bloody skull.
The moment a facehugger hugs your face, all you have to do is - bite your teeth tightly and don’t let go easily even if you have trouble breathing. Once you open your mouth because of fright or suffocation, the other person will take the opportunity to bite you.
The straightening device is inserted into your throat. It reaches your stomach in one step and lays eggs in your stomach. In that case, even if the Daluo Jinxian comes, it won't be able to save you.
After being grabbed by a facehugger, you cannot use violent methods such as cutting or slashing to treat this creature. If you use a sharp weapon to cut their body, you will be in a more dangerous situation.
The blood of facehuggers is extremely corrosive, and a spaceship made of titanium alloy can be corroded by it, let alone your face. Therefore, the characters who encounter this creature in the movie have no good ending, other than being killed alive.
To be suffocated is to be burned alive by the highly corrosive blood. After death, the body becomes a reproductive machine, giving birth to aliens for the other party.
Of course, the facehugger is just a fictional creature created by film and television crews, and such abnormal creatures do not exist in real life.
However, as the world is full of wonders, insects similar to this kind of creature still exist on the earth in real life, and they are not far away from you and me. This kind of insect is-the artillery beetle.
The artillery beetle, also known as the "bombardier beetle" and scientifically known as the bombardier beetle, is a magical creature that can spray chemical gases.
Because when this beetle is stimulated by the outside world, it will emit high-temperature "cannonballs" from its tail and produce yellow poisonous gas and smoke, so it is also known as the "fart bug".
The fart bug looks similar to an ordinary beetle, but it has a skill that all beetles don't have - farting.
Yes, fart!
But you must not underestimate their farts. Their farts are boiling high-temperature chemicals that are hotter than boiling water. They also have a very strong odor and can effectively burn or scare away enemies. They are known as
The master of chemistry in the insect world!
Friends who live in the city may not know much about this insect. If you have the opportunity to travel to the countryside, it is easy to see this magical beetle.
They like to hide in dark environments, such as under stones on the roadside, in the cracks of dilapidated tiles, and under old bricks.
You will definitely feel curious and excited when you see this kind of bug for the first time, but I advise you not to catch them with your hands no matter how curious and excited you are, because their "farts" are not substances that you can touch.
The beetle is known as the "master of chemistry in the insect world". There is a combustion chamber in the belly of this beetle, where two chemicals, hydrogen peroxide and hydroquinone, react violently to form a
A high-temperature liquid called benzoquinone.
Most of the time, hydrogen peroxide and hydroquinone coexist in the body of the beetle. Once the beetle feels an external threat, it will quickly release a special catalyst to activate the synthesis reaction of "benzoquinone"
.
The melting point of benzoquinone is 115.7 degrees Celsius and the boiling point is 293 degrees Celsius. After being excreted by the beetle, its high temperature is enough to kill enemies of the same size as it, or scare away enemies that are larger than it.
If you don't know the heights of the earth and catch these bugs with your hands, their farts are guaranteed to make you scream. Even if you successfully escape the boiling high-temperature smoke, you can't escape the stench that follows.
To be honest, this gas is much more smelly than the smell of an ugly girl. I guarantee you won’t want to eat for three days after smelling it.
In short, this is a creature that no creature wants to mess with.
Although the beetle has an unattractive appearance, it is actually a natural enemy insect.
As the name suggests, natural enemy insects are insects that specialize in preying on other organisms. The prey of the butt beetle mainly includes insects such as armyworms, giant borers, grubs, cabbage caterpillars, sweet potatoes, hawkmoths, and mantises.
The reason why those giant sword beetles suddenly stopped moving forward was not because they were afraid of Lin Shuhang and the Crazy General, but because they were afraid of the existence of these foot-stepping beetles. Otherwise, those giant sword beetles would have pounced on them en masse to bite them.
Of course, Lin Shuhang and Crazy General didn't know all this. They didn't know how powerful these insects were. When they saw them suddenly stopping, they thought they and Crazy General's mighty aura had scared each other.
"These are fart bugs!" Someone recognized the big black beetles and said to Lin Shuhang excitedly: "Anchor, your good luck has come!"
"What good luck?" Lin Shuhang asked confusedly.
The man explained: "You know? This ugly big beetle is the nemesis of the praying mantis! The reason why those big praying mantises dare not attack you is because they are afraid of the existence of these insects. As long as they are around, those giant knife mantises are absolutely
Don’t dare to take a step forward easily.”
Netizens are right. This kind of beetle, known as the "master of nature's chemical weapons", is indeed one of the rare nemesis of the praying mantis. They are inconspicuous in appearance, but they have powerful counterattack capabilities. When attacked by the enemy, they can release 100 degrees Celsius
The high-temperature poisonous farts can burn or even kill the opponent. The reason why those giant sword beetles stood around and stood still was because they were afraid of the existence of this insect. Otherwise, Lin Shuhang and the crazy general would have been in danger by now.
Lin Shuhang observed it and found that the situation at this time was indeed what the netizens said. Due to the existence of these backfoot beetles, those ferocious giant mantises did not dare to take a step forward no matter what.
But the stalemate cannot continue like this. Those mantises are "hunters" and they can waste time, but neither he nor the crazy general can afford to waste time.
This situation must be broken as soon as possible!
"Since you are afraid of these insects, I will let them have fun with you!"
Lin Shuhang decided to break the deadlock and use these "masters of chemical weapons in nature" to scare away the giant mantises.
Although I have never come into contact with this kind of insect and do not understand their attack methods, I know from the name that this insect relies on its powerful "poisonous farts" to attack the enemy.
Of course, poisonous fart bugs cannot be handled directly with hands. In order to avoid injury, Lin Shuhang used his bamboo gun as a baseball bat. He swung the bamboo gun and beat out a fart beetle like a baseball.
The knocked-away beetle drew a graceful arc and fell into the crowd of praying mantises.
As soon as the injured beetle landed on the ground, it immediately activated its defense system, raised its buttocks among the mantises, and released the chemicals in its body.
The defense system of the beetle consists of three parts: fluid storage sac, secretory tissue and reaction chamber.
Their liquid storage sacs are thin, transparent and tough sacs, with a plexus-like duct in the middle of the sac that sprays chemicals outwards. The reaction chamber is a pair of ossified horseshoe-shaped structures, with a herringbone valve at the entrance, which controls the injection and
The key part of generating pulses is of great significance for reducing the temperature of the reaction chamber and controlling the injection time of the insect body.
In the reaction chamber of the beetle's body, the reaction between benzene and hydrogen peroxide is extremely rapid and intense, and the chemical reaction is completed almost in an instant.
Hot fluid and smoke with a temperature of up to 100°C were sprayed out from the tail of the beetle, and it was sprayed on the surrounding giant mantises like boiling water. The hot giant mantises screamed and died.
Because the reaction chamber space in the body of the fart beetle is limited, it is impossible for the fart beetle to release all its farts, otherwise it will put itself in a dangerous situation and have no threat to the enemy.
They have pulses and frequencies, just like fountains, and are intermittent responses.
When a bombardier beetle is in good condition, it can spray poisonous farts 20 times in a row before it runs out of ammunition.
Since the spray spreads, the bombardier beetle has enough time to cool down and prevent itself from overheating and injuring itself from dropping the bomb.
The beetle that fell into the swarm of mantises started a combo mode, spraying hot liquid one after another. It quickly repelled some of the giant mantises, and a small gap appeared in the encirclement of the swarm.
"One more ball!" The sight in front of him made Lin Shuhang even more excited. Like a baseball player, he swung the bamboo blunderbuss and sent the beetles into the insect swarm again and again.
As the number of beetles continues to increase, a large amount of high-temperature smoke rises from the insect swarm.
The temperature of this high-temperature smoke has reached an astonishing 100 degrees Celsius. Not to mention those giant praying mantises, even flowers, plants and trees will wither due to the high temperature when exposed to this smoke.
Under the continuous shroud of high-temperature smog, this area has become a huge "steamer". The trees have withered, the grass has withered, and the scene is unbearable.
The giant mantis that was exposed to the high temperature died and was injured. Finally, it could no longer withstand the damage caused by the high temperature smoke. After leaving the cooked insect corpses on the ground, it fled in a hurry and disappeared without a trace.
