Chapter 676 Taros! Tayisi!
“Private property is not allowed here, everything is for public use.”
Zhou Qing was slightly surprised to hear Taisi say this, but then he realized that if all the tribes in this insect kingdom only knew how to operate like machines, then in the absence of intelligence, all non-living things that exist in this kingdom are raw materials for strengthening this kingdom and naturally have to be shared.
However, Romantina was already trembling all over. She hugged her arms tightly and turned back to Zhou Qing and said, "How about we stay here for a while longer?"
Zhou Qing: “￣□￣｜｜”
Knowing exactly what this "pervert" was thinking, Zhou Qing lifted his slightly lowered chin and asked Taros, "So, all of your private property has been 'confiscated' by the Zerg?"
"Except for the white flute." Talos touched the white flute hanging on her chest. "Items like this that can play the melody of life are considered part of one's own life and will not be confiscated."
"Then how are you going to eat?"
Most alienated bodies still need to eat, and it is impossible for them to obtain sufficient energy for life activities by simply absorbing the vital energy of heaven and earth.
"Come with us."
Taros and Taisi leaped forward and flew hundreds of meters away. Zhou Qing and Romantina looked at each other and could only catch up with the others.
In this space, you can fly like a bird with just a flick of your arms. It doesn't require much effort at all and is extremely energy-saving.
This state also reminded Zhou Qing of the purple slime in the treasure bag on his waist...
Arriving at the "spider web area" on the edge of the Zerg Kingdom, Taros and Tais led seven people into a cave with a diameter of more than three meters. After advancing nearly twenty meters, they came to a small space.
Here, a bug that looks like a woodlice is vomiting out a gelatinous substance that emits a light green fluorescent light, mixed with yellow and gray long strips of particles.
Taisi picked it up, took a bite and chewed it for a long time before swallowing it with a look of enjoyment as Zhou Qing and his companions stared in amazement.
"vomit!"
Because this scene was so "exciting", Riko was the first to lose control and vomited out the undigested Egg Dragon Egg.
The pungent smell of vomit also attracted the attention of another soft-bodied insect that was only the size of a palm, had a soft body, a pair of big black eyes, and a dark green body.
They crawled out of nearby holes and used their tentacles, which were similar to those of octopuses and squids, to collect all the vomit floating in the air into their mouthparts under the tentacles.
In just ten seconds, the space was clean again.
The duty of this kind of insect in the insect kingdom is probably to clean up the garbage.
“It’s a cleaning bug.”
Taros told Zhou Qing the name of the insect, confirmed Zhou Qing's guess, and introduced the food that Taisi eats. Pointing at the lump emitting light green fluorescence, she said, "This is a high-nutrition substance that this insect eats fresh food such as moss, fungi, and eggs, and processes it in its stomach and regurgitates. We call it: jelly."
After saying that, Taros patted the carapace on the back of the insectivorous creature and spat out seven balls of jelly, which she handed to Zhou Qing and the others.
“As long as you ignore the processing, it tastes very good.”
Zhou Qing was hesitating, but Li Ke took the lump and took a bite.
She was the first one who couldn't help it just now, and now she is also the first one to try this "jelly".
"Are you okay?" Romantina blinked, hoping to understand what was going on.
But Li Ke just said, "Trying all kinds of strange and bizarre foods is also part of the adventure, and this jelly tastes really good."
Seeing that Liko was eating with such relish, Zhou Qing also became interested. After repeating to himself several times, "This is all just the cycle of matter," he convinced himself and took a piece of jelly. He then took out a small spoon from the gray bag, scooped up a spoonful, and tentatively put it into his mouth.
[This taste! It's a bit like warm Xizhilang! ]
The familiar taste made Zhou Qing feel a little nostalgic.
The remaining five people looked at each other and had no choice but to take the green jelly in their hands, sniffing, biting, nibbling, chewing, or swallowing it. They found that it tasted good, but it shouldn't be to the point of making people miss it, right?
Except for Romantina, who had once fused her martial soul with Zhou Qing and seemed to have tasted a hint of inexplicable nostalgia, everyone else felt that it was just a little better than ordinary desserts, and the shape of the cake alone was enough to make most gourmets give it a bad review.
“You have a very strong ability to accept things!”
Talos sat casually on the carapace of the insectivorous creature and said with a grin, "Generally speaking, foreign soul masters are very averse to this kind of food. They would rather go out and look for eggs to eat than try it... Tsk, those guys will never become truly powerful in their lifetime."
“You always have to try something new.”
After Zhou Qing finished eating the jelly in his hand, he watched the residues suspended in the air being eaten by the cleaning bugs that arrived for the second time. He was sure that this space would not be dirty for a long time, and he couldn't help but sigh "high efficiency", but verbally tested Taros, "Miss Taros is not from Abyss, right?"
"What else?" Talos crossed her legs and chuckled, "When I first met you, I should have spoken to this blond dwarf first."
Riko was a little dissatisfied with being called a "dwarf", but it was an indisputable fact that the people of Abyss were indeed shorter than outsiders.
"How long have you been here?" Zhou Qing asked again.
"Time? I forgot. There is no rotation of the sun and moon in this place, and there is no reference for time. In addition, after becoming an alien body, my life span is long, so I am too lazy to keep track." Taros said casually.
"Do you know Sandyin?"
"do not know."
Talos answered simply.
Zhou Qing didn't notice that she was lying, and he had a rough guess about the ages of the two people: at least older than Sandyin.
Just as Zhou Qing was about to continue asking some questions about the identities of the two, Taros took the initiative to speak: "I answered your question, so can you answer mine next?"
"If I knew, I would answer you without hesitation." Zhou Qing was not surprised. He guessed that the two wanted to learn about the current situation in the soul master world from them.
But to his surprise, Taros didn't care about what was happening outside at all: "Are you going to the lower level?"
“What else?” Zhou Qing remained calm, imitating Taisi’s behavior, sitting on a nearby stone and crossing his legs. “Anyone who dares to come to the sixth floor must have a strong desire for adventure and want to explore further down…”
