Versatile Mage

……

Feilong eats raw meat, and this riding is really powerful, but just to fill its stomach is a relatively troublesome thing.

Several officers bought some monster meat from nearby magic markets and started feeding them one by one.

As soon as Flying Dragon and Eagle Kellogg were fed, the scout team Tian Cheng brought back the good news.

In addition to scouting in the team, Tian Cheng also focuses on the investigation of demonic substances, whether it is the demonic falling feather scales, skin chips, saliva, cysts, Captain Tian can find them and analyze them very carefully.

In Beijiang, the Monarch of the Magic Prayer Dog kept moving, fleeing and hiding in the vast northern wilderness. Without Captain Tian locking in the saliva legacy of the Dog Monarch, they would never have found this monarch in the North River.

This time they're looking for the Dragon King's nest, and the most powerful skill of Dragon King ants is that their bodies are as transparent as seawater.

This transparency, which is not yet pure liquid, makes some consequential changes depending on the turbidity of the sea water, coupled with the fact that they are complete molluscs that can easily be drilled into dense rock bodies, making it extremely difficult to find them.

So Zhang Xiaohou thought it would take some clue time here in Luning County, who knew Tian Cheng had a very valuable message.

“General Zhang, this is a colored sea salt, which I found close to the wetlands. The sun was exposed to the sun for a few days, and the sea water that remained in some of the pit depressions was turned into sea salt.” Tian Cheng, open your palms.

Hua Yue bamboo came and looked at it. I couldn't see a single one, so I came.

“Is this sea salt special?” Zhang Xiaohou asked.

“Yes, this colored sea salt is formed because of the presence of salt stones in a place where the waves wash in this direction, and the constant erosion of this salt stone by the flow of sea water, which enriches the sea water with this salt and then passes through exposure to the sea salt that is now this algae green.” Tian Cheng explained.

“But what does this have to do with the dragon king ants we're looking for?” Hua Yue bamboo asked.

“I've analyzed dragon kings, and their body fluids are many times saltier than ordinary seawater, and even exceed their maximum solubility. I guess these fluids are similar to the Dragon King's 'blood’ and are used to provide their body function.” Tian Cheng said very seriously.

Tian Cheng, a very brainy soldier, made this guess and immediately caught several more dragon king ants in the ocean. After several experiments, he found that dragon king ants could not survive in fresh water.

Without salty water, it's like losing oxygen to them, even dying ten minutes later.

More interestingly, when Tiancheng threw in some bricks, hard mud and solid rock to devour Dragon King ants, these “rocks” eaten by Dragon King ants all turned into that high salinity “blood”, so that Dragon King ants can move freely in fresh water and carry aggressiveness!

As a result, Tiancheng further concludes that dragon king ants need a large amount of salt.

The oceans are their perfect breeding ground, because seawater is salty.

But even so, salt is not high enough and they look for those rocks, stones, concrete, steel bars to feed and eventually turn into salt in the body!

“You can eat all the rock formations. Isn't this creature invincible? The most indispensable thing in the world is stone and sea water.” Huayu Bamboo said.

“So they must have some kind of fatal weakness, or they're selective eaters, not all of them. All in all, salt is the living characteristic of Dragon King ants, and salt is their energy, and we can go to salt and stone-rich islands, peninsulas, cliffs, and we should be able to find a lot of Dragon King ants.” Tian Cheng said with great confidence.

The salinity of ordinary sea water is not enough to support the atrocities of Dragon King ants, so in places with high salinity, there must be dragon king ants gathering, even nesting.

“Then we can ask the locals and see if they know where the salt and flower stones are.” Zhang Xiaohou nodded.

“I've already asked.” Tian Cheng pulled open the map, just off the coast of Bohai and Bohai, where several places were painted in red circles, "seventy kilometres from here, there is a peninsula rich in salt and flower stone, and there are many villages and factories nearby. ”

“Okay, let's go! ”

……

This peninsula of salt flowers is practically cut off from the land, relying only on a wet sea lane, with no bridges, and almost impossible to get through.

As sea levels rise, wet seaways are often soaked by sea water, and this land appears only when the tide recedes.

The peninsula is also large, with twenty or thirty sporadic villages, four or five large and small factories, and the largest factories numbering more than a thousand.

The Saltwater Peninsula is situated without national highways, highways or railroads, and the broken roads are even at the end of the wetlands, so many people who don't know would never have thought that there were so many people living on a deserted island almost off the land.

“It's not like the locals told me that I can't find this particular peninsula.” Tan Feng shouted.

Relative to most coastal areas, the peninsula is lagging behind and does not depend on large power plants, with a windmill power plant on the island.

The white windmill is the most modern thing on the entire salt peninsula, with very weak cell phone signals, let alone network coverage.

However, the Saltwater Peninsula is not primitive, they have their own operating patterns, and communication with the outside world, though inconvenient, is not completely closed, but rather slow.

……

In order not to disturb the inhabitants of the Salt Flower Peninsula, everyone waited until night to fly into the Salt Flower Peninsula, searched for a more hidden valley, left several officers in charge of logistics to stay with Feilong and Eagle Keilong, and the others followed Zhang Xiaohou to the peninsula.

“In fact, it would be nice to have a beach bridge here.” A young woman officer said.

“Since when do we want to develop tourism? ”

“It smells awful. I don't know if you guys smell it.” An officer who was more sensitive to the smell said.

Zhang Xiaohou took a deep breath and quickly smelled a slight stink.

“Probably abandoned by the factory! ”

Keep going deeper, you can already see some sporadic lights.

They are more scattered, with households on a small hilltop, households on the waist of the hill, households on the side of the peninsula highway, and some in more remote areas, covered by dense forests.

“Looks like a factory over there. ”

“Captain Tian, you take a team to the beach for analysis. Tan Feng, you take a team of people to the factory.” Zhang Xiaohou said.

The two teams soon split up, leaving Zhang Xiaohou and Hua Yuezhu in their places.
