Taming a Gromos, it seems like a very simple matter.
But in reality, only Zhang Chen could do it.
Because he possesses the Meteorite Core within his body, its energy can crush any parallel world, thus qualifying him to supply energy to the Gromos and move freely without suffering backlash.
As for anyone else, as long as they connect with the Gromos, the energy within their bodies will be instantly drained.
They would directly become the Gromos' prey.
How can a tiger become a rabbit's pet?
So, calculating it, it's estimated that Zhang Chen is the only one in the entire world capable of taming a Gromos.
For others, this is absolutely something they wouldn't even dare to imagine!
Yet Zhang Chen has achieved it.
However, Zhang Chen did not immediately tame the Gromos.
There was a more important task to be done first.
He sealed the Gromos again with acupoint pressure, storing it in a containment jar and placing it in the "Progressive Faction Weaponry Warehouse."
Afterward, Zhang Chen placed the dark red "Spider Queen's Egg" on the ground.
At this moment, a prompt appeared:
[Spider Queen's Egg, current incubation progress 98%!]
Next, it was time for Zhang Chen to personally take action.
If the Gromos continued to unleash its energy,
What if the Spider Queen saw it the moment it hatched? That would be terrible.
Now, in the small plaza of the entire underground palace, only Zhang Chen remained.
Using his absolute vision, he scanned the surroundings privately one last time, confirming that no one else was nearby. Only then did he slowly raise his left hand.
[Energy Convergence Strike]!
Hum!
A blue-white energy beam shot out instantly, directly hitting the Spider Queen's Egg.
Ding! The Spider Queen's Egg was successfully charged. Current incubation progress 100%!
As this prompt appeared,
The dark red lines on the surface of the Spider Queen's Egg suddenly began to flash.
Gradually, they changed from dark red to black, with irregular blue patterns.
After a moment, the egg vibrated on the spot.
Zhang Chen knew that this was the crucial moment when the Spider Queen was about to break free from its shell.
He nervously took a few steps forward.
The Spider Queen's Egg suddenly trembled once, then twice, then thrice...
The tremors became more frequent, and fine cracks began to appear on the surface of the egg.
Clack!
Suddenly, the egg stopped trembling.
Then, a large hole was poked through the top of the eggshell!
Immediately after, a weak and slender little hand stretched out from above the egg.
It was a miniature human hand, with flesh-colored skin and five clearly visible fingers.
Following that, another small hand emerged.
With the two small hands pushing hard against the eggshell,
A small creature, only twenty centimeters tall, jumped out from within.
It was the Spider Queen!
This was a completely scaled-down, child-like version of the Spider Queen.
From her big, dark eyes, neat ear-length short hair, and skin as white and tender as ice and snow, it was evident.
It was almost a one-to-one replica of the Spider Queen.
However, in terms of age, she appeared to be only three or four years old.
The only difference was that the newborn Spider Queen did not have the terrifying eight legs or a massive abdomen.
She looked exactly like a little girl.
She blinked her dark eyes and saw Zhang Chen.
"mA...mA?"
"Uh, call me Dad!" Zhang Chen said.
He had originally intended to say call me brother.
But then he thought of Xiao Bai... She was over ten years old and still called him Dad.
If a Spider Queen that looked two or three years old now called him brother, wouldn't the seniority be messed up?
So, it was simpler to just call him Dad. It was straightforward, and no one would be at a disadvantage.
Speaking of which, this was all Xiao Bai's fault!
"BA...BA?"
The young Spider Queen hopped lightly onto Zhang Chen's hand.
The next moment, her form changed, becoming human from the waist up and spider from the waist down.
So, she could control her own transformation!
It was similar to how Er Pang switched between small and large forms.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chen couldn't help but think of the giant octopus again.
If he were to tame it in the future, would it also have form switching?
Would it be a change in size, or a switch between human and animal forms?
In fact, Zhang Chen leaned towards the former.
Because if the octopus brother became human... if it were a man, it would be fine, but if it were a woman...
The difference in form would be too great, he couldn't bear it.
Just thinking about it made Zhang Chen feel a little nauseous.
"Hehe, Dad?"
The Spider Queen, Mo Ran, crawled on Zhang Chen, and finally transformed into her human form, curling up in Zhang Chen's warm palm.
A line of prompts slowly appeared from the Spider Queen:
Name: Spider Queen Mo Ran
Level: Mutated VIII Biological Type
Diet: Carnivorous. If food contains toxins, it will enhance her internal anti-toxin and toxin levels.
Growth Stage: Juvenile Stage I
Skills:
[Form Shift]: Can switch between human form and spider-human form. Skills that require the activation of spider silk in human form cannot be used. All attributes in spider-human form are increased by 100%.
[Primary Possession Parasitism]: Has a certain probability of parasitizing any living creature. Upon killing the host creature, it temporarily gains that creature's abilities. The death of the parasitized host causes no damage to the parasite.
Note: 1. The higher the strength of the parasitized target compared to the Spider Queen's strength, the lower the probability of parasitism, and vice versa; 2. This skill has a cooldown of 24 hours (failed parasitism does not refresh the cooldown).
[Rebirth]: Upon death, will produce an indestructible egg, which can hatch a new Ghost Face Spider Queen.
[Web Spinning] (Requires Spider-Human Form): Spits out spider silk of different characteristics and effects.
Seeing these skills, Zhang Chen couldn't help but nod.
The other skills were fine.
But as soon as she was born, she possessed the ability of [Possession Parasitism]?
Zhang Chen had a deep impression of this ability. If he hadn't had the Meteorite Core within his body, he would have probably become the Spider Queen's shell by now.
Especially when [Primary Possession Parasitism] reaches its highest level.
Its parasitism would almost ignore the opponent's level.
As long as it was a parasitic mutated creature or survivor, the Spider Queen could easily burrow in and take over, becoming the new master of that body.
This was equivalent to a one-hit kill skill.
Such a powerful creature, becoming one of his own people, was much better than becoming an enemy!
"Mo Ran, from now on your name is Mo Ran! Do you understand?"
Zhang Chen put on a small set of clothes for Mo Ran.
She was too small, even smaller than a normal human infant.
However, Zhang Chen learned from Mo Ran's diary that her growth was not a gradual process of getting bigger, but through layers of molting.
Therefore, her growth rate would definitely far exceed that of humans.
Soon, another prompt slowly appeared:
[Spider Queen Mo Ran, Loyalty: Absolute Loyalty 100%, Convertible! After conversion, permanently increases mutation level by 1, limited to Juvenile Stage I...]
