I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

Lu Jian had seen a movie before, in which there was also a plot where a group of people were locked in an incubator, let insects parasitize them, and finally broke out of their bodies.

But obviously, the ceremony here is more curious.

On those eggs, Lu Jian saw tiny tentacles.

These tentacles meander like the tentacles of an octopus, extending in all directions from the top of the egg, as if trying to catch something.

From the top, these sticky, creamy, dark eggs gradually cracked, and among those tentacles, some kind of creature seemed to be pregnant.

"Can you blow up these things directly?"

Lu Jian didn't wait for them to fully hatch, so he asked Shia.

The people in the movie don't know why, they always have to watch these creatures hatch before doing anything, and Lu Juan doesn't know what serious illness they have. If it were him, he would definitely be ashamed.

"no problem."

Shia raised her right hand and seemed to be holding something in her palm.

"****!"

She uttered a word that Lu Tri could not understand, and then, like throwing a medicine ball, she threw the invisible thing in her hand.

A few seconds later, the eggs were still hatching, and Lu Jian could already see the slippery surface of those ugly wriggling larvae.

"It doesn't seem to work?"

He looked at Shia.

"It's going to fly for a while."

Shia said seriously.

Bang——

Before Lu Jian had time to look over, he heard a violent explosion from behind. The eggs were instantly torn apart, and thick black body fluids splashed onto the wall, leaving mottled marks.

"These things may be hatched from the flesh and blood of the sacrifices, and then continue to grow, turning into those monsters you encountered before?"

Lu Juan approached the blood pool and pulled the wreckage with a crowbar.

The texture is soft and translucent, like jelly.

"Is it tasty?"

he asked.

"..."

Iron Fist was speechless.

"It shouldn't taste good."

Only Shia responded to Lu Jian.

"This kind of bug is carnivorous and generally has a high nutritional content. I suspect that the people here may rely on raising this kind of bug as a source of food. Then, in order to thank these bugs every year, they create a god to worship and enslave prisoners. Throw it in and feed the bugs."

Lu Jian smelled the smell of bugs.

Suddenly, a tentacle jumped up from the wreckage and burrowed straight towards Lu Jian's head.

Puchi——

The tentacle cut through the skin and stuck into Lu Trip's throat.

The tentacles were like leeches, trying to get into Lu Lian's skin, biting a terrible wound, the blood flowed out and splashed into the pool, making ripples.

But the blood didn't flow much, because soon, the green grass growing from Lu Lian's wound blocked the momentum of the bug's continued drilling in and pushed it out.

Lu Juan pinched it with his hands. He observed carefully and found that the worm was already a complete individual. Perhaps there were countless such worms in that egg. flesh.

"...you can put your hand down, wait a minute, it's still flying, isn't it?"

Lu Jian glanced at Shia who raised her hand, fearing that she would throw that spell at him again, even the worm and others raised it together.

"not yet."

Shia lowered her hand.

"So you really planned to give it to me just now?"

Lu Jian was surprised.

"The teacher told me that as long as the hostages are resolved, the monster will have nothing to threaten us."

Shia answered decisively.

"Is this how you people in the Gray Tower save people?"

Lu Jian felt that there must be a deviation in the cognition of Shia and himself in this matter.

"Of course, otherwise, would you still be watching you being eaten by monsters?"

Shia answered naturally.

"It doesn't matter, we usually deal with you and the monster at the same time, and then use healing spells to revive it. Basically, there is no difference from the previous body!"

"basically?"

Lu Jian raised his eyebrows.

"Then can you use healing spells today?"

"Definitely tomorrow!"

Shia talked about him left and right.

While Lu Jian was speaking, the worm lost its vitality and quickly shriveled up, like an earthworm dried by the sun.

"You two stop arguing."

Iron Fist said, and he came to the pool of blood. The blood was gradually flowing down. It can be seen that when the table with the eggs was raised, the blood flowed to the next level through the gap under the table.

"Where did the blood come from?"

Wumian stretched out his fingers to dip some blood and sniffed it, it was like human blood, still warm.

What they used to open the altar was the blood of a person with outstanding recovery ability, but that kind of blood should have already solidified after such a long time.

The blood here had obviously just flowed out.

You must know that in the current wasteland, apart from humans, there are almost insects, and there are no domestic animals such as pigs, cattle and sheep recorded in history books. Therefore, red blood is the patent of humans.

"We can go down here."

Iron Fist pointed to the gap in the table.

"Since there are insect eggs, there must be eggs."

"Wait a minute, is the treasure in this ruins the worm queen?"

Lu Jian stopped the iron fist that was about to smash open the altar, and asked.

"No, it's just a part of it. The underground here hides something that can make a person a saint. The worm queen protects it."

Iron Fist replied.

He clenched his fist with his right hand, and the crystals covered his arm. Then, he slammed the iron fist hard, and the entire altar suddenly shattered.

The blood-stained stone fell, and it could be seen that it was a huge hollow.

"Those bugs must have a place to go out after they hatch and grow up, maybe they just entered this hollow."

Faceless said a word, and then called his subordinates. .

"flash."

The boy with eyes made of crystals came to the hole and looked down.

The eyes burst out with strong light illuminating the space.

Lu Jian saw that the space below is extremely wide, the dome is about tens of meters high, and the ground shining with light is a complex mechanical gear structure.

These structures are slowly working to move something out.

Those are eggs.

Countless insect eggs are scattered all over the ground of the space. These dark and crystal-clear things are densely packed, like a swarm of bees in a honeycomb. Some seem to be still wriggling, but none of them have hatched.

The blood from the altar flowed down and fell on some of the eggs, and those eggs immediately began to move around, and the tops were split open, revealing tentacles one by one.

These insect eggs that are about to hatch are picked up by stone machines and put on the conveyor belt, where they are sent to no one knows.

And I don't know where, there is a conveyor belt that continuously transports the eggs and accumulates them in this room.

"Are you sure you want to go down?"

Lu Jian felt that it was definitely not a good choice to go directly.

"Look at these insect eggs, they were transported here, so if you follow the road, you will definitely find the queen."

Iron Fist pointed to a corner, the pothole in the direction the conveyor belt came from.

"Should we clean up here first?"

Lu Jian glanced at Shia.
