Chapter 555 Cocoon
Chapter 555 Cocoon
What's real or fake? Do I look like I'm joking?
Hongsha discovered that this man had no other redeeming qualities besides being good-looking and possibly having some money.
That's incredibly harsh!
"What do you mean? Do you think I'm afraid of a box?"
"Could you be bombs from your Gear Kingdom? Or some kind of terrifying monster?"
"It can't be a cute little baby, since I hate seeing little kids."
Hongsha completely ignored Lin Tian's advice and uttered some nonsensical words.
However, to his surprise, Lin Tian showed a look of shock after hearing her finish speaking.
"You're absolutely right, there really is a baby inside, but..."
"But! But! Why all the nonsense? Just bring it to me right now!"
Seeing that Lin Tian refused to give her the box for a long time, Hong Sha became more impatient and reached out to grab it.
"If there's a baby inside, I'll eat it..."
Lin Tian didn't want to get into a conflict with her, so after shrugging helplessly, he handed her the black box.
Hongsha gently took the box, and Lin Tian's series of actions made her wary.
Could it really be one of those special explosives from their country?
Hongsha glanced at Lin Tian, then took out the dagger from her waist, held it in one hand, gently lifted the black cloth covering the black box, and then pried the box open.
Click~
The black box that Lin Tian had been hiding was now in front of Hong Sha, but her expression changed drastically when she saw what was inside.
Ugh~
Ugh...
vomit! ! !
Hongsha's face became extremely distorted. She took several steps back and then suddenly sat down on the ground behind her, retching repeatedly.
"Ugh... Ugh... What the hell is this?!"
Hongsha, filled with anger at being mocked, shouted at Lin Tian.
"What are those things...? Didn't you just guess? They're just a bunch of cute babies..."
As he spoke, Lin Tian's gaze also drifted towards the inside of the black box.
Inside the black box was a small ecological simulation scene, similar to a sand table, in which there were several wriggling cocoons.
If that were all, it would be fine. After all, as an adventurer, Hongsha has seen many monsters and her resilience is definitely stronger than that of ordinary people.
But the key is that these cocoons have many blood vessels on them, and they expand to the extreme in a strange way and then shrink rapidly.
Just like hearts!
It was this strange feeling of being both dead and inhuman that caused Hongsha to feel intensely uncomfortable. It was as if a piece of rotten meat was being put in his mouth, chewed over and over, and the juice squeezed out was being poured into his nose.
In short, it's a very strange feeling that doesn't exist in the normal range of people's cognition. It's not a physical discomfort, but rather your brain telling you that this thing is disgusting.
This is also why Hongsha is gagging. Luckily, she hasn't eaten yet, otherwise she would have vomited it all up. But judging from this situation, even if she doesn't vomit, she's going to have nightmares tonight.
"Sweet baby, are you kidding me?!"
Ugh! Ugh!
Hongsha's pupils trembled violently, as if her mind had been subjected to a tremendous shock.
"What happened? Hongsha! Are you alright? What did you do to him?"
Just then, the other companions noticed Hongsha's strange behavior and immediately ran over. They helped Hongsha up from the ground while glaring angrily at Lin Tian.
"I already reminded you."
Perhaps because he was used to seeing it, Lin Tian didn't think it was too bad, but he could understand Hong Sha's situation, after all, this scene was indeed a bit shocking.
But what does this have to do with him? After all, he had already given him a warning.
However, the members of the Red Diamond Squad seemed somewhat dissatisfied with Lin Tian's explanation and impulsively wanted to teach him a lesson, which attracted the attention of onlookers.
Fortunately, at that moment, their captain suddenly spoke up and calmed them down. Perhaps fearing that things would escalate and become difficult to handle, he also asked Lin Tian about the whole story.
The team members and those around them listened attentively to his account, which helped them sort things out and prevent the conflict from escalating further.
However, after hearing the story, everyone looked at Lin Tian's black box in disbelief. Like Hong Sha, after seeing the scene inside, the scene turned into a large-scale vomiting scene.
The captain of the Red Diamond Squad was quite resilient, but upon seeing this scene, his expression changed drastically, and he forced himself not to turn his head away.
“You…”
"what happened?"
"I started out raising insects. I came here recently to collect some things and cultivate some new experimental insects."
"You... never mind, you should just cover this up..."
The captain of the Red Diamond Squad originally wanted to stand up for Hong Sha and say a few words to Lin Tian, but the more he looked at Lin Tian's cocoon, the more uncomfortable he felt. So he didn't say anything more, but just glanced back at Lin Tian before leaving.
"It seems like I'm being held against..."
Watching the Red Diamond Squad walk away, Lin Tian shrugged helplessly.
Is it really that disgusting?
As they spoke, Lin Tian also glanced inside the box...
Lin Tian's eyelids twitched involuntarily after he noticed that the cocoons were starting to ooze strange pus.
"Hmm...it seems a bit..."
...............
Escorted by the adventurers, the convoy set off. Because the black box had been exposed earlier, everyone else kept their distance from his carriage, as if afraid of seeing that scene again.
Lin Tian didn't care about this; he also wanted some peace and quiet.
The next part involved a period of travel, and the convoy did not travel very fast.
Due to frequent monster attacks and the presence of ordinary people, the convoy was traveling slowly with frequent stops and starts, and it had been almost two days since they entered the forest.
Although they didn't move very fast, the adventurer team was well protected, which was a good thing for ordinary people.
Lin Tian didn't think much of it, but during the drive, he suddenly sensed a subtle hostility from the Red Diamond Squad.
If an ordinary merchant were to be targeted by these adventurers in the wilderness, he would definitely not have an easy time and would certainly be given a hard time.
But Lin Tian wasn't afraid. No matter how powerful they were, they were just a bunch of silver-ranked people who couldn't cause any big waves.
He could easily kill even those at the Gold rank, so this was nothing special. Lin Tian paid less attention to them than the cocoons in the black box.
