Chapter 509 Mineral-Eating Worms

"Big guy, your grandpa and I are here!"

"Come here if you can!"

The people who came out of the mine looked panicked, but their actions were orderly and coordinated, and they looked like they had been trained.

Moreover, Lin Yi and the others heard a familiar voice.

"It's Jiang Chen's voice!" Lin Yi said immediately.

"They seem to be in trouble." Lu Linhai's pupils turned into rectangles, which was an alien ability that could improve his vision.

"Let's go over and take a look!" Zhang Cheng said immediately.

The four people quickly rushed towards the mine not far away, but before they could get closer, the sound coming from the mine became more intense, as if it was about to collapse at any time.

Then, a huge, terrifying-looking flesh insect suddenly emerged.

"Alien!" Lin Yi frowned.

"That's..." Looking at the alien creature emerging from the mine, Zhang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, "That's an ore-eating worm."

"Don't worry, Jiang Chen and the others are probably hunting."

"Hunting?" Lin Yi was a little confused.

Ore-eating worms are a modern species and one of the most common species in the digital area. They live underground all year round and feed on ores.

Only when the ore resources in the area are exhausted will they actively leave the ground and look for a new habitat.

The bite force of mineral-eating worms is amazing. Although they have no vision, their skin can sense their surroundings through odor particles in the environment.

Its appearance is similar to that of a bobbit bug, and its body is extremely long. What Lin Yi and the others saw at this time was only a small part of this alien species.

Not only that, mineral-eating worms have extremely strong regenerative capabilities.

If the head is cut off, the position of the tail will change and gradually grow into a new head.

"Ore-eating worms have delicious meat and are rich in protein." Zhang Cheng explained, "Because they feed on ores, the meat also contains a variety of minerals, and there is no need to add seasonings. Simple cooking is a delicious dish. "

"This thing is the main source of food for scavengers."

Hearing this, Lin Yi felt relieved a lot.

Since ore-eating worms are the main food of scavengers, they must have a way to deal with this alien species.

Not far away, the head of the ore-eating worm emerged from the mine and was chasing after Jiang Chen. It seemed quite angry.

The people who ran out of the mine with Jiang Chen quickly dispersed and came to both sides of the mine, seemingly arranging something.

The worm secreted a large amount of mucus, immediately increased its speed, and quickly approached.

Jiang Chen didn't panic at all. He raised his mechanical arm and slapped the worm on the head.

Just hearing a "pop" sound, the worm's huge head suddenly tilted.

"It's the power of ether." Lin Yi could feel that his god-given power was restricted. Jiang Chen must have used the power of ether.

"Do it!" Jiang Chen glanced at the part where the worm came out, seemed to think it was enough, and then shouted.

The scavengers on both sides of the mine received the order and immediately took action.

The device installed on the ground began to operate, the fire light came on, and the flames on the left and right sides connected in a line and began to cut the worm's body.

"While cutting, they also use the burning of the flame to stop bleeding. I would like to call them 'living kings of hell'." Zhang Cheng joked.

Ore-eating worms have no sense of pain and are extremely vital. Even if they lose their heads, they will not die.

The scavengers will not kill these alien species. After taking away the amount they need, they will not attack the worms in this area again for a period of time and will allow them to continue to grow.

But at this moment, there was another sound in the mine, and it was more violent.

Along with the sound, the mine began to collapse, and then, the head of another ore-eating worm emerged from the collapsed mine.

"Huh?" Zhang Cheng's face darkened and he immediately noticed something unusual, "Why are there two ore-eating worms here?"

Ore-eating worms are not social aliens, and they have a strong sense of territory. Unless it is mating period, it is impossible for two ore-eating worms to appear in the same area.

As another worm appeared, the scavengers near the mine seemed to have discovered something and immediately shouted.

"Jiang Chen, there are cuts on that head!"

Another worm had obvious cut marks on its head. Although the marks were more than halfway cut, they were not completely cut.

"It's fake death!" Zhang Cheng understood immediately, "This worm has mutated because of fake death!"

"What do you mean?" Lu Linhai didn't understand and asked, "Aren't those two aliens?"

"No." Zhang Cheng shook his head and explained, "The worm's head was attacked by another group of scavengers, but they failed and did not completely cut off the worm's head."

"The injured head entered a state of suspended animation, but the worm's body tissue thought the head was dead, so another head grew at the tail."

"As the new head grew, the original one also regenerated, and it became what it is now, a two-headed ore-eating worm."

The probability of this kind of thing happening is very low, but Jiang Chen and the others happened to encounter it.

The second head wants to attack the scavengers on both sides of the mine, but once they dodge, the devices on both sides will stop running, allowing the first head to escape.

An Chengdao immediately wanted to help, but Jiang Chen used the power of ether to limit his god-given power.

"I'll do it." Lin Yi walked forward.

Although his God-given power was also restricted, Lin Yi now had another power that was not restricted by the ether - the power of the earth.

Just as Lin Yi was about to make a move, Lu Linhai seemed to have discovered something and showed a hint of excitement on his face.

"Sister Xiaoyun!"

"Xiaoyun?" Lin Yi was startled and quickly looked at both sides of the mine.

However, he did not see Zhou Yun among the scavengers on both sides of the mine.

"Where is Xiaoyun?" Lin Yi was very worried.

Jiang Chen was very strong, and it was not a problem even if he faced the mining worms alone.

Other scavengers lived here all year round, and even if they were not defeated by the worms, they had some ability to protect themselves.

However, Zhou Yun was different.

Just as Lin Yi was thinking this in his heart, Lu Linhai's next words surprised him.

"Up there!"

Lu Linhai shouted: "Sister Xiaoyun... jumped down from the mountain?!"

Looking up, a figure was falling at a very fast speed.

Before Lin Yi could react, he heard a "bang" and the figure fell directly on the second head of the worm. With a loud noise, the second head of the worm, which was originally raised high, was actually stuck to the ground, as if it had suffered a heavy blow.

"Keep cutting, leave this guy to me!"

A familiar voice sounded, and looking at the figure standing on the head of the worm, the faces of Lin Yi and the other four were not only shocked, but also a little excited.

"It's really Xiaoyun!" Lin Yi couldn't help laughing.

"When did sister Xiaoyun become so powerful?" Lu Linhai exclaimed.
