“Look!” Ning Yiyuan opened his terminal, pulled out a folder, and opened a picture inside. “This is a type of mutated beast that I found during the Galactic War. It’s small in size and very fertile. It fits the miniature demonic beast that you guys mentioned.”
Ning Yiyuan had a habit of taking photos of strange demonic plants every time he encountered them. He did not expect it to come in handy at this time.
Hearing this, Mo Chu and the others quickly moved closer to take a look.
The picture was very clear. On top of it was a bunch of white insects.
Ning Yiyuan stretched out his hand to enlarge the picture. He adjusted the resolution and could clearly see the appearance of the insects.
The zoomed-in Nutrient Bug looked like a caterpillar from the 21st century. Its body was chubby, with shallow thorns on its top. Its two black eyes were only a little small, and below them were eight pairs of inconspicuous feet. The most striking thing was its sharp beak! It was as thin as a needle. With just a light stab, it could drill into a person’s body and absorb energy and nutrients from every part of the body.
“Wow, it really looks like it.” Mo Chu looked at the miniature magical beast taken from the patient, then carefully looked at the photo in Ning Yiyuan’s terminal and said in surprise.
“How can you tell with the naked eye?” With a clue, Shen Yi felt much more relaxed. Even his tightly knitted brows were relaxed. “Let me make a comparison map to find out.”
Shen Yi took a picture of the miniature magical beast with a high-powered camera. Then, he entered it into Ning Yiyuan’s terminal and compared the two pictures. The final result was a 100% match!
“That’s right!” Seeing the result, Shen Yi’s eyes suddenly lit up. “This is a Nutrient Bug!”
Hearing this, even Zhong Wen, who had always been calm, could not help but clap his hands excitedly. “Great!”
This Nutrient Bug was very rare. Among the few of them, only Ning Yiyuan had come into contact with it. The others did not know anything about it, so they surrounded him one by one and asked him all kinds of questions. “Does this Nutrient Bug have any natural enemies?”
“How can we stop it from absorbing energy?”
“I don’t know.” Interrupting everyone’s curiosity, Ning Yiyuan helplessly spread his hands. At that time, he only felt that this demonic beast was very special, so he took a picture of it. However, he did not know much about its characteristics.
The situation had reached a stalemate once again!
Zhong wen frowned and exchanged glances with Shen Yi. Their eyes were filled with frustration.
Although they now knew that this miniature magical beast was a Nutrient Bug, they knew nothing about it. It would probably take them some time to find a way to counter it!
However, the most crucial problem now was that they had to race against time!
If they won, they would live, but if they lost, they would die!
Ning Yiyuan also understood this logic. His eyes could not help but turn solemn. In the end, he only said, “Try your best!”
“That’s right!” Mo Chu rubbed her face and smiled to cheer everyone on. “Compared to the state of being ignorant before, you’re much better now, aren’t you?”
“That’s right!” Zhong Wen could not help but feel relieved when he saw Mo Chu’s sweet smile. It turned out that he could not compare to Mo Chu’s good mentality. “Why don’t you stay here and study with us?”
“No,” upon hearing this, Mo Chu hurriedly waved her hand and said, “my previous speculation was just blind luck. I really don’t understand why you want me to study these things!”
What Mo Chu said was half true and half false. Previously, she had used the Repulsion Vine to save that patient, which had probably already aroused their suspicion. They might even link her to the Domineering Roundy on the Starnet.
Now, she had to restrain herself, she might as say that she was lucky, and quickly slip away. After all, she was the universally acknowledged Lucky Star!
