Chapter 248 The Metamorphosis of the Spider

The spider stretched out its legs and rubbed its head. Because of its lack of intelligence and lack of language, it was still unable to explain clearly what its condition was.

She glanced at her child, because of indescribable hunger, some mucus flowed out of her fangs unconsciously.

For some reason, she wanted so badly to eat her own baby.

Yes, spiders would rather eat their own children than food.

However, after eating her own children, the number of her children will decrease, and at that time, she will have to give birth to more children to keep the total number of her children constant.

This is a very profound mathematical knowledge, but it took her a long time to figure it out.

By the way, how many children does she have?

Unknowingly, the spider started counting again.

But just after checking two numbers, he was interrupted by a voice.

"Mother, don't check the number yet."

Finding that his mother wanted to check the count again, Edward interrupted hastily.

"His Royal Highness, about the situation that mother said, maybe I can answer."

Lusha wondered: "Oh? You know? What happened to Spider, why did her childbirth slow down?"

"His Royal Highness, the hunger my mother mentioned is not real hunger, but a feeling similar to hunger."

Edward continued after a brief pause: "This hunger does not act on the body, but on the spirit and soul."

Lusha said: "You mean, apart from normal food, spiders also need to devour some mental power and soul?"

There are currently two soul-devouring creatures among the Zerg. One is the king of the Zerg who never refuses any food. ball.

Lusa thought about it.

Could it be that giving birth to these descendants who innately broke through the level lock would consume the spider's soul?
Lusha suddenly realized something.

Mortal life is different from bugs.

Yes, races such as humans, elves, and orcs generally have very few offspring, and there is usually only one child per birth.

Even Goblins with strong fertility can produce only a dozen offspring at a time, which is far inferior to the hundreds or thousands of Zerg.

The more powerful the life, the lower the efficiency of giving birth to offspring.

Although a legendary dragon can give birth to more than a dozen eggs in one birth, it often takes decades or even hundreds of years for a legendary dragon to give birth to an offspring.

Lusha thought of her and Wang.

As her strength grows, won't the chances of producing offspring between her and the king also decrease?
She wants to have many, many offspring with the king.

It didn't make Lusa think for too long.

As if seeing the worry of the Queen of Worms, Edward explained: "Your Highness, Queen of Worms, mother's hunger is not real hunger, and she can't devour her soul.

It's just that her soul hasn't matched her current strength, so the current situation has appeared.

Every time the mother gives birth to an offspring, some connections are established between them, and the number of such connections will cause some burden to the mother's soul.

It is this burden that gives the mother a feeling similar to hunger. "

Lusha breathed a sigh of relief: "So that's the case. It seems that Spider's childbirth has not been affected..."

Edward said at the right time: "The most powerful part of our Zerg is the reproductive ability, even if breaking through the level lock will slightly reduce the reproductive ability of the Zerg, but it will not drop too much.

Mother's situation needs time.

Over time, the mother's soul will gradually match her current body, and her current hunger will improve.

Maybe asking Mr. Rubik for help can shorten the time that mother is in this situation.

Besides that, there is another way.

It is perfectly possible for the mother to produce offspring to whom she is not so closely bound, so that the mother will not be burdened, unwell, or hungry.

But my mother is studying mathematics every day now, and has no time to learn the skills of giving birth to another offspring. I think it is possible for my mother to temporarily suspend the study of mathematics. "

If it is not kept in touch with every child, the number of offspring produced by spiders will be much higher.

Of course, the offspring born in this way will be inferior in terms of strength and intelligence.

But having said that, Spider's more than 100 children have almost the same intelligence except him, and Edward feels that there is no difference.

While Edward was talking, he secretly looked at his mother behind him. Following his words, his mother was tilting her head and staring at him.

Edward could feel his mother's anger.

But Edward still had to do it—his mother really wasn't the math material.

Transforming Heathera into a family member to help him share the burden is only one aspect, and he also needs to try his best to prevent his mother from counting. If the mother graduates the child every day under the guidance of the queen, he will naturally not be deceived by the mother's counting. troubled.

Lusha didn't see Edward's small thoughts and Spider's anger, or she didn't care if she saw it.

Gently stroking Edward's head, Lusha said: "You are the Edward who was in the Holy Grail of Blood, since you know the reason why spiders can't give birth to offspring, and you know how to solve it, then it's up to you to help you mother."

"No, Your Royal Highness, I think it's better for you to teach her yourself. You should know the character of my mother. She will only listen to you and the king. If I teach her, she will only..."

Edward's words stopped abruptly.

Under the control of his mother, Edward lost control of his body and could not continue to speak any words.

His body moved under the spider's body, and then actively crawled to the spider's mouth.

Click, click...

With two chewing sounds, Edward's body had been chewed to pieces by his mother.

"Spider, you..."

Lusha wanted to stop the spiders from eating their children. The vitality of the Zerg was extremely tenacious. Although Edward's body was bitten in half, it was not fatal.

Unfortunately, at the next moment, Edward's body melted like glue, and was sucked into his stomach by the spider.

As the ancestor of the spider race, the spider has absolute control over his children.

This is also the fundamental reason why Edward has no idea of ​​resistance.

……

"Finally, was it eaten by my mother..."

After half a month, Edward turned into a soul form again. Unlike his previous human soul, Edward found that his soul had turned into a spider.

The soul floated slowly, and Edward's soul floated to his mother's side.

The spider's soul looks like a giant spider. Compared with the vague feeling half a month ago, the spider's soul has become more and more solid now.

Not only that, Edward also discovered the abnormality of the spider's soul.

The spider's soul seemed to be undergoing some kind of metamorphosis.

"This is……"

Accompanied by Edward's murmur, the spider in the Flower Fairy's Mushroom Garden moved in front of Heathera, fiddled with Heathera's body with her feet, as if observing.

Bursts of blood-colored smoke diffused from the spider's body, and before he knew it, a huge blood-colored cocoon condensed on the outside of the spider's body...
