Chapter 2507 Brain-Eating Insect

Chapter 2508 Brain-eating Insect

"I do not know what you're talking about."

Facing Rhodes, who seemed to be able to see through his own true nature, the thief said in a deep voice. The murderous intent in him had subsided, and that was the sign before taking action. No senior assassin would be full of murderous intent when taking action, thus making the enemy feel sad. Be alert.

"There's no need to hide it. The materials you collected, including dragon beard king, spider velvet, and phoenix tail feathers, are all materials for refining brain-eating insects." Rhodes replied unhurriedly, and the thief's reaction was also It proved that Rhodes' guess was correct, he was indeed refining brain-eating insects.

A powerful legendary assassin who is good at taking advantage of any easily overlooked place and has mastered the most sophisticated assassination methods. In addition to hidden weapons and poisons, they must also master close combat skills, the ability to teleport, and a large amount of occult knowledge.

The brain-eating worm is an assassination tool in the hands of legendary thieves that focuses on sorcery. It is the most difficult to guard against and the most sinister evil thing among them.

As early as in the game of his previous life, Rhodes had heard of the existence of brain-eating insects. During the Doomsday War, a player used a brain-eating worm to assassinate a certain Duke of Erathia, which attracted the attention of many people. Rhodes was one of them and had collected detailed intelligence about it.

The brain-eating bug is not a bug in the true sense. Its core is the dragon-bearded king who looks like green grass. After grinding the Dragon Beard King into powder, combining it with many materials, and finally using the phoenix tail feathers to give it powerful vitality, it is completely refined.

The completed brain-eating worm looks like a handful of finely divided transparent powder. After it is sown in the air, as long as it is inhaled by other creatures, the Dragon Beard King will penetrate into their brains along their nasal cavities, and in their Roots are regenerated in the brain, and the roots of the dragon's whiskers are deeply embedded in the brain, absorbing the nutrients. Even if it is discovered, it is too late. In less than half a day, the entire brain can be completely sucked dry.

In the end, the Dragon Beard King, having absorbed enough brains, will pierce the host's scalp, and the roots will emerge from the eye sockets or nostrils. Simply before that, the host will have completely lost its consciousness.

Even Rhodes, once he is attacked, has no choice but to enter the form of the dead. When the Dragon Beard King is deeply implanted in the brain, even if the skull is opened, it cannot be eradicated. He can only watch the brain shrink and die. , and finally became the nourishment of Dragon Beard King.

Brain-eating worms, this was Rhode's unexpected discovery during this trip. Unexpectedly, he met an assassin who could refine brain-eating worms at the Thieves Market.

Very few magicians conduct research on the brain, not because they dare not, but because these studies all end in failure. A little careless research can turn experimental creatures into complete idiots.

Rhodes believes that even if Moriel is infected by the brain-eating bug, it cannot be eradicated. When her brain is destroyed, let's see how she can still use the time domain.

However, after listening to Rhodes' proposal, the thief said nothing and was about to leave. Rhodes stopped him and asked, "What do you think?"

"I don't know what you are talking about. Since you don't want to trade, forget it. Get out of the way now." The thief said in a deep voice.

Rhodes put his hand on his forehead: "How could you not understand? This is my good intention. All the stall owners tell you that the phoenix disappeared hundreds of years ago. Maybe this one in my hand is the only one left in the world. If you refuse, where else can you get a phoenix tail feather? One phoenix tail feather is enough for you to refine a heavy brain-eating worm, and I only want a part of it."

Rhodes recalled that due to the scarcity of phoenix tail feathers, the brain-eating worm was extremely difficult to refine. Even though its refining materials had been spread in previous lives, there were still not many people qualified to refine it.

Rhodes was able to obtain the phoenix tail feathers, thanks to the exploration of the Candy Plane. In the magic ritual left by the mage god Gwen, Rhodes found these remaining ritual materials, which can now be put to use.

However, the thief was indifferent to Rhode's trade request and seemed to have made up his mind to ignore Rhode.

"What a pity. I still plan to save some favor for Sally..." Rhodes whispered, and an irregular sword blade appeared in his hand.

"This weapon! You are..." The thief's eyes narrowed, and an ominous premonition suddenly appeared in his heart. At this moment, he recognized the identity of the person in front of him, but it seemed that it was too late.

Rhodes' body swayed, and a figure exactly like him split from his body and rushed straight towards the thief. The short-distance sprint was far faster than the teleportation of spell casting preparation and retraction. The thief didn't even react, and saw the dazzling light spread rapidly in front of his eyes, and the surging electric current engulfed his body. His skin burned quickly, his flesh and blood flew away, and after a brief period of pain, there was eternal darkness.

A strong explosion spread from the alley, overturning nearby houses, destroying nearby streets, and blasting a deep crater into the ground. Many thieves who were slow to react were trapped under the building, and some were caught in the explosion. There are no bones left in the center. The nearby thieves looked at this scene in horror and raised their weapons one after another.

After the smoke and dust dispersed, Rhodes put down the cloak in front of him. What reassured him was that the strong impact caused by the explosion did not mess up his hair. The protection of the Electric God Pendant also prevented his hair from becoming like a hedgehog due to static electricity. Stand up.

Rhodes walked to the place where the thief died, and suffered the self-destruction of the mirror in front of him, causing his charred corpse to scatter in all directions, leaving no intact piece at all. Rhodes snapped his fingers, and the nearby bone fragments trembled and gradually gathered in front of Rhodes. The disappeared souls were returning bit by bit, and flesh and blood were reborn.

Rhodes gave the thief his kindness and did not kill him immediately because of his status as the leader of the thief. However, the thief did not cherish it at all. In this case, Rhodes could only give him another big gift, then It's death.

"Um?"

However, looking at the thief who had recovered his body in the Death Realm, Rhodes frowned slowly. He was a little different from what he thought, or it would be more accurate to describe him as her.

Under the bombardment of the ultimate lightning, whether it was the clothes on her body, the treasures she carried, or the space ring, they all disappeared in an instant, leaving nothing behind. The materials for refining the brain-eating worm were swept into the space turbulence. I'm afraid she needs to collect it again. Fortunately, the phoenix tail feathers in Rhodes' hands were not damaged. As for the other materials, they could be collected smoothly as long as they took some time.

While Rhodes was thinking, he took out a large black robe from the space ring and threw it towards the resurrected thief. However, the thief's next words made Rhodes' complexion change slightly.
