“This is the self-balancing ability of nature.”
…
Lu Liran’s eyes also flashed with surprise. He didn’t expect that Ke Ji would choose such a method.
But it has to be said that it is the most appropriate approach to let the two giant monsters who are already at the end of the crossbow consume each other, and eventually consume the vitality of one of them, or even die together.
They are just unarmed ordinary humans now. They don’t have mechas or heavy weapons in their hands. Their lethality is not worth mentioning in front of such giant monsters.
Lu Liran was a little nervous, but more excited.
Under the control of Ke Ji’s mental power, the giant monster in the water seemed to feel no pain at all and rushed straight towards the female spider, with the momentum of dying together!
The female spider was forced to stop more than 20 meters away from the rock wall. Facing the water monster that unexpectedly changed direction and sudden thrust of the water monster, it raised its belly gushing with blood, then raised a bunch of big limbs, and slashed horizontally at an extremely fast speed.
Taking advantage of the location and body shape, the water monster nimbly avoided the giant spider’s slashes. At the same time, it bit back with its flexible snake neck, grabbed one of its compound eyes at the back of the female spider’s head and bit it through!
The slurry burst out from the compound eye and poured on Ke Ji’s face, the female spider screamed sharply in pain, and its several jointed limbs danced wildly in the water. The sharp limbs tied to clamp the body of the water monster but always failed.
Under the guidance of Ke Ji’s deliberate mental control, the water monster that had the upper hand relied on its flexible movement to gradually become even with the giant spider again.
The giant spider, on the other hand, was already seriously injured, but was consumed by the water monster crazily, and its movements became obviously much slower.
In the end, its chest and abdomen were bitten to bits by the water monster, and it fell into the water pool.
The water monster, which had exhausted the giant spider, let out a hiss like it was occupying a territory, its slender neck bulging into a round ball, and the long whiskers around it spreading out like bristles, making it look top-heavy and generally extremely discordant.
Ke Ji jumped from the water monster to the giant spider, and then slid from the giant spider’s slender limbs to the shore.
The color of his pupils returned to the usual steel blue. After getting rid of the mental control, the water monster was obviously stunned on the spot, as if it was frightened by the corpse of the giant spider in front of it.
Soon, its animal instinct took over. It lowered its head to bite the giant spider’s body and shook its neck hard.
And just as it threw up its slender neck, even Ke Ji didn’t expect that the giant spider, which was thought to be dead, suddenly raised its huge limbs, and clamped the slender neck with one limb. It was so hard that the water monster couldn’t move until it died.
Ke Ji’s heart skipped a beat, and a trace of joy filled his heart. He had underestimated this giant spider. He never expected that it would be willing to “bear the humiliation and bear the burden”, pretending to be dead and enduring the bite of the water monster until it waited for the perfect fatal blow.
The two giant monsters fell into the water. The three-meter-deep river could barely cover most of their bodies. The smell of blood on the water was overwhelming for a while.
The audience in the live broadcast room was almost dumbfounded——
[This is my first time watching giant monsters fight in a live broadcast room!!]
[Movie texture!]
[Holy shit, I suddenly discovered that the Beauty is so sinister, he let them kill each other and finally escape without injuries!]
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
[Is this called being shady? This is awesome!]
[I have long heard that the commander’s mental power is terrifying and that he can easily control the minds of living things…I didn’t expect to actually see it!?]
[It must not be “easy”…otherwise there are so many people in Desolate Star who oppose him, and he can control them with just his mental power, would he still need to struggle]
[Maybe there is not enough mental power inventory (dog head)]
[Impossible, I remember that Desolate Star broadcasted one of the commander’s battles, and it was a direct bloody massacre. No one on the opposite side of the enemy survived]
[Yes, I will never forget that scene. The enemy ships sprinkled blood all over the sky, like a bloody rain…isn’t this kind of mental power more than enough to build the Desolate Star?]
[Hiss, I remember that broadcast. It was that broadcast that made me feel that the commander was tyrannical…]
[+1, but he seems like nothing now…?]
[I think the commander has a pretty good temper]

After Ke Ji’s eyes stayed in front of Lu Liran for a few seconds, he forcibly restrained himself and looked away, and responded: “Perish together.”
Lu Liran heard this and looked at the two huge corpses. He definitely couldn’t take it away, and he also couldn’t dissect and split them up here. He believes that soon a large number of predators will be attracted here by the smell of blood, just like the water monster before was attracted by the blood of the giant spider.
He was a little regretful, and at the same time a little confused, why didn’t his challenge mission not respond with any progress updates since both giant monsters died?
“The challenge mission requires the host to kill it with his own hands…so strictly speaking, it does not count as completing the mission.” The system answered in Lu Liran’s mind.
Lu Liran frowned slightly, he missed this detail…
He pulled out his sword, walked over the two huge corpses, and stabbed the giant spider and the water monster’s fatal heads each once.
“Just in case.” He met Ke Ji’s confused gaze, he coughed lightly, and explained with a guilty conscience.
“Congratulations to the host for completing the challenge mission: Strange Water Monster!”
“Mission Difficulty: ★★☆!”
“Mission reward 1 : Research contribution +10! (If you submit the aberration corpse, the reward will be doubled. Does the host agree to the system automatically recycling the target aberration?)”——Lu Liran chose to agree, and his research contribution increased by a total of 20 points.
“Mission reward 2: Random skill book x1!”——When opened, it is a master-level low-altitude skydiving skill book.
Lu Liran felt that this skill book was a bit useless. He even broke the federal record for the lowest low-altitude skydiving.
In terms of professionalism, he is a master.
However, the research contribution of 20 is enough to offset the small “loss” of the skill book he opened with unlucky hands. The balance of research contribution he currently holds totals: 1.9, plus the new additions, that’s a huge fortune!
Lu Liran didn’t expect that his little trick would be allowed to pass.
“It’s not a trick. Although the physical reaction of the two creatures is that they are dead, their brain central nervous systems are not completely dead, so the host’s final blow is what really kills them.” The system explained.
Lu Liran twitched the corner of his mouth and hit the target by mistake.
At the same time, he heard two system prompts in his mind again ——
“Congratulations to the host for discovering the mutant female thief spider. It seems to be a mutation caused by eating something by mistake. It proves that organisms have the ability to self-regulate to adapt to excess energy. The host will be rewarded with +1 research contribution!”
“Congratulations to the host for discovering the unknown aquatic creature x1. It seems to be a variant development of multi-body organs. It has high research value. An advanced civilized planet have a strong interest in this creature and seem to be willing to pay a high price for it…reward the host’s research contribution +1, and reward the host’s advanced civilization planet exchange check x1 (redeemable)!”
Lu Liran was obviously stunned.
Exchange checks? No——an advanced civilized planet?
Lu Liran frowned. He once heard an old teacher say that there are more advanced civilizations outside the A69 galaxy. In the eyes of those planets, their culture and technology are not worth mentioning.
He once thought that the civilization attacking the A69 galaxy was those advanced planets, but after the attack, he found out that they were the foreigners from outside the A69 galaxy, the most barbaric and low-level aliens. They were exiled from their home planet for various crimes. In the end, they wandered and gathered together to attack the lower and weaker planets and galaxies.
——Even so, the weapons possessed by these exiled foreigners were far more advanced than those of the federal war army, which caused the federal war army to suffer greatly in the early stages of the battle.
The low-level barbaric wanderers were already like this, then the higher civilized planets…
Lu Liran frowned and never relaxed.
“Don’t worry, host! The advanced civilized planets currently have no plans to conquer the galaxy! Our goal is to create a harmonious, stable, prosperous, and civilized cosmic society!” The system quickly jumped out to explain.
Lu Liran: “…” This shouting sounded extremely ceremonial.
Ke Ji saw that Lu Liran had not spoken for a long time, so he gently squeezed Lu Liran’s palm: “What’s wrong?”
“…it’s nothing.” Lu Liran came back to his senses. After being vague for a moment, he whispered into Ke Ji’s ear, “I’ll tell you when we get home.”
[Ah this, Brother Lu should know that no matter how quiet you whisperers, it will still be picked up by the microphone, right]
[Pretending not to hear]
[Everyone please cooperate!]
[SoS, isn’t the point “going home”?! Brother Lu and the Beauty are living together!?]
[Has Cao Cao already reached this point?! I always thought that these two had just begun to fall in love, not long ago!]
[As fast as a rocket launching…]
[Isn’t it time for gifts soon?!]
[I comply, salute! —— FriedFrenchFries gifted the anchor 1x Top-quality Wagyu Beef]
[I comply, salute! ——Brother Lu yyds gave the anchor 1x Buddha jumping over the wall]
[……]
Lu Liran took the time to glance at the live broadcast room. After being obviously stunned, the tips of his ears quickly turned red——What’s this all about!
“Let’s go back over there.” Lu Liran said.
The two of them swam into the water one after the other in tacit agreement. Before entering the narrow, dark waterway, the two of them swam out of the water to take a breath.
Lu Liran subconsciously looked at the water where the two giant monster corpses were previously soaked. His eyes suddenly opened slightly and he exclaimed in a low voice: “Look!”
The drone camera turned around and saw countless tiny waves splashing on the surface of the water, as if boiling.
After taking a closer look, they saw that it was not the river water boiling, but a large group of zhelou trout splashing underwater.
They feed on spider eggs floating on the water, a sumptuous buffet.
[Hiss, I originally said I was worried that so many giant spider eggs…would hatch out a bunch of giant spiders in the future, but I’m not worried anymore]
[+1 Even if it hatches, it will probably be used as food rations by other animals when it is so small]
[It’s very difficult to survive to be as big as the female spider, and it’s not uncommon to get attacked by others]
[Don’t panic, don’t panic]
Lu Liran stepped on the water and looked at the lively waters, and said softly: “This is the self-balancing ability of nature, just like big fish eating small fish, and small fish eating shrimps…”
And how these small spider eggs with mutated genes will eventually transform from quantitative to qualitative changes in the bodies of these zhelou trout…Lu Liran’s eyes darkened, these were not what he was here to study.
The author has something to say:
Institute of Mythical Creatures: Me, me, me! I study!
Sunnyshies: This should be a chapter yesterday. I forgot to update. I got addicted to cultivation novels recently and can’t bear to stop reading. It’s Ye Yiluo’s novels, the one who wrote “The Abandoned Son Runs Rampant and Transmigrated As Second-Rate Cannon Fodder“. I read this two novels before…I don’t hate it but I don’t like it either, just so-so, but recently, I found that there were more of her recent novels were being translated in NU, so I went to read them. Last week, I read “The Spiritual Plant Master Transmigration“, and I’m surprised to see her improvement, esp for the mc. The mc in Second-rate cannon fodder is…I dunno, but I agree with the review in NU, he doesn’t have much personality (thinking back, I can’t even remember what the mc look like), and ml’s personality went too over character development, he went from being a shy ger to overbearing bully. While the mc in abandoned son…he was an overbearing genius throughout the novel, while the ml is just a side character…this novel ain’t romance at all, and both mc and ml admitted that they only got together because of what both of them have; ml for his physique, and mc for his strength. Oh yeah, I read “The Rebirth Waste Strikes Back” too, but I dropped it just when I was about to finish it.
But recently, these new tl-ed novels, the author focused more on romance and adventure. Spiritual plant master is a whole family bonding novel, mc led all his family up, and he didn’t miss anyone. Then I just finished reading “Transmigrating Into a Book and Changing Your Life” yesterday. This one, both mc and ml held each other up. If one became much stronger than the other, the stronger one will push the other forward, and I like their bonding, they have equal share of everything. And the characters have more diverse personality than before.
Anyway, I recommend these two novels to you guys!
Mmmmm mutated fish. Next thing a new deep blue hole emerges once the fishies hit the ocean
Oh yes little trouts. Eat the mutated spiders. Become mutated trouts worse than piranhas or something. I wanna see it 🤡
And thanks for the recommendation!
