Chapter 708: The Immune System
He Yongchang's eloquence is actually good.
At this time, he handed over the words, and Lin Shuo knew that it was not that he couldn't explain clearly, but that he was not too sure about this idea in his heart.
Now that Lin Shuo is the captain, He Yongchang naturally wants to hear Lin Shuo's opinions more.
In fact, Lin Shuo's thoughts on this matter were also slowly formed after thinking about it in the past two days, and he didn't have much of it, so he didn't say anything, and wanted to observe and observe again.
Because whether this judgment is correct or not will directly determine the actions of the hunting team after that, and also determine the fate of everyone on this trip, Lin Shuo has to be cautious.
And after these things happened today, Lin Shuo had a great grasp in his heart.
If He Yongchang and he hit it off, then it would be okay to talk about it at this time, and everyone would discuss it.
At this moment, it was pitch black all around, and Lin Shuo's nose told him that those things at the door were still busy and didn't notice his pedestrian.
And the other strange smells, far from here.
The environment is quite safe, but I have the opportunity to explain things in detail.
So Lin Shuo pondered the words for a while, found an entry point for the narrative, and then said: "Actually, when Li Tai'an was still in the team, there was a suspicious point, which I always thought was very strange, I don't know if you noticed it."
That is, in the information he provided, there is no humanoid xenomorph.
At that time, his identity was a descendant of the Li family, so he said that he had never encountered a humanoid xenomorph, which is reasonable.
After all, the underground space is so large, and humanoid xenomorphs are not everywhere, and he has not encountered this kind of thing, so it is not completely impossible.
But later, his identity was revealed.
We don't know for sure what he is, but at least in the entire territory of the Queen Mother of the West, his identity is extremely special.
What he meant by this was that he claimed that he had control over the place, that he was one of the masters of it.
Therefore, I guess he may be the prince of the East.
Then looking back, he said that he was unaware of the existence of humanoids, which obviously did not correspond to the facts.
Even those of us who are first-time visitors have come across this kind of thing more than once.
He, the master, would not know about this kind of thing?
No way.
Of course, we can think that he is deliberately hiding from us and not telling us anything about the Anthropomorphs.
Another possibility is that these xenomorphs are not xenomorphs at all in his concept.
Because they, like him Li Tai'an, and even like the Queen Mother of the West, are part of this place.
They are the masters, not the xenos who make waves in them.
And it is precisely because these heteromorphic species are actually in the same camp as him Li Tai'an, so of course Li Tai'an will hide information about them from us.
Because once the information about the humanoid xenomorph is leaked, we may deduce from this what is going on with him Li Tai'an, and even know what is going on with the Queen Mother of the West.
And this question is another test left to us by Li Tai'an, and he doesn't want to reveal it to us so quickly.
Okay, can you understand my speculation?"
Lin Shuo paused after saying this, gave some time, and let the three people present digest the information in their words first, and then continued:
"Then you two will combine what Lao He said just now.
Lao He said that these heteromorphs not only look like people, but also behave like people, right?
Lao He was right.
Then we have to look further at what aspects of these xenomorphic behaviors resemble people and which aspects do not look like people.
So far, my personal observations are:
Their individual behavior is rarely reflected, while group behavior is fully manifested.
There is a strong sense of collectivity, with little individual will.
So what are they like besides people?"
As soon as Lin Shuo's question was thrown out, the three people around him were stunned, and no one said anything.
Among them, He Yongchang seemed to think that it was difficult to find out that Suo Suo was touching the cigarette in his pocket, and then finally remembered that this place did not seem to be an environment where smoking could be smoked, so he stopped.
"You don't usually come into contact with this kind of knowledge, and you can't say it's normal. Lin Shuo said, "If Nianqiu and Dilan were here, they would definitely say it." β
"Don't worry about your wife at this time. Su Dongdong said dissatisfied, "There are only a few materials on the scene, and you can't help it if you are not satisfied." β
"Chief Leader, just say, what does it look like?" He Yongchang also asked.
"The immune system. Lin Shuo first said it in Chinese, and then said to Helen in English, "Immu."
e systemγ β
Su Dongdong frowned and said: "You have a foot in the sky and a foot in the ground, one moment you say you look like a human, and another time you say you like an immune system, how can we think about it." β
"Yes, the immune system. He Yongchang patted his thigh lightly and muttered, "That's what it means." β
Lin Shuo continued: "You see, if we look at the entire territory of the Queen Mother of the West as a whole, then it itself has changed from small to large, and it has internal and external structures.
Lao He is right, it must not be seen as a few simple topographic blocks, but should be regarded as a living thing, it is growing, developing and changing.
So what do we mean for it?
In terms of the size difference between each other, we are equivalent to bacteria or viruses that have invaded this huge lifeform.
So will the immune system of this living organism respond to our invasion to a certain extent?
Absolutely.
So on the ground, on the epidermis of this living being, we encountered the first wave of humanoids.
Then, immediately after, Lee Tae-an appeared.
This may be what distinguishes us from ordinary bacteria or viruses.
Li Tai'an appeared because we are the descendants of the ancestor of the Yun family, and the ancestor of the Yun family has a relationship with him.
So he came out, gave us some intel, and gave us some tips.
Regardless of the way he suggests it, just from the objective facts, this is actually conducive to our further invasion.
And what does this amount to?"
"Medication. He Yongchang seemed to follow Lin Shuo's train of thought and said, "Li Tai'an is the embodiment of the will of this living body, he wants to use medicine for the living body, and hopes that we will play the role of the drug ingredient." β
"Yes, most likely. Lin Shuo said, "But this Li Tai'an is only the embodiment of the subjective will of the living body.
Similar to us, we want to use a medicine to achieve some physical or mental effect.
But as far as the immune system is concerned, do those immune organs, like the bone marrow, spleen, lymph nodes, tonsils, thymus, and those immune cells, and immunoactive substances, use this concept of medicine?
No.
Not only do they not have the concept of medication, they don't even know what medicine is.
The immune system is the product of countless years of evolution of living organisms, and serves the existence of living organisms just like the central nervous system of living beings that produce consciousness.
They are de facto the same level as the brain, and do not accept the direct dictation of the subjective consciousness.
So the brain wants to use medicine, and the immune system doesn't know the medicine, and the medicine will dry up as soon as the medicine comes in, so what should I do?"
"Discontinued?" Helen said.
"Then we'll have to go home. Lin Shuo said, "Things here can't be improved, and the Queen Mother of the West will destroy the human race." β
Su Dongdong said: "Then the drug is more domineering, extinguishing the immune system and replacing them." β
"According to the current situation, sister, do you think this is possible?" Lin Shuo said, "How did Quinn die today, the moment we entered here, an extremely small part of the immune system may be equivalent to a mononuclear phagocyte, and his life was taken." And we're going to fight the whole immune system, isn't it unpleasant to find ourselves?"
"Then what should we do?" asked Su Dongdong.
"We're going to fool the immune system. Lin Shuo said.
"The question is how. He Yongchang said.
"I'm experienced in this area. Lin Shuo smiled, "Do you remember the Dover Demon?"
"Are those you met in the Stone Forest before?" asked Su Dongdong.
"Those are just fleas parasitic on animals, they don't matter. Lin Shuo said, "I'm talking about the trip to the Red Desert. β
"Oh. He Yongchang was also there at that time in the Red Desert, and he said, "You mean, let's have a few sets of protective clothing too?"
"It's not that simple. Lin Shuo said, "Before, on the Red Desert, we simulated the nerve signals of the Dover Demon and disguised our identity, so that we could deceive the Dover Demon.
But in the current situation, I don't think it's enough to just do that.
Because of this incident of the Queen Mother of the West, it is obvious that the existing immune system can't handle it, so Li Tai'an will come out to communicate with us, vaguely asking us to find a way to help.
So what we're trying to solve is something more powerful than these xenomorphs.
We're even choking on these xenomorphs, and it's even harder to deal with them.
Therefore, this requires us to fully cooperate with this existing immune system and learn from each other's strengths, so that it is possible to solve this problem. β
"Hmm. He Yongchang nodded and asked, "Chief Leader, then what should we do next?"
"The information we sent out before only had some photos of the humanoids, which was far from enough. Lin Shuo said.
"Then we're going to catch one now?" Su Dongdong suggested, "Let the rear go to research?"
"That's not enough. "To understand how the immune system works, it's useless to collect a cell, but to take a sampling." To put it bluntly, we'll have to get rid of at least one of their nests and pack them all up. β
"Hey, is the action big enough?" He Yongchang said, "When?"
"Didn't you run into it, just tonight, the four of us are about the same. Lin Shuo asked, "Helen, is the Holy Light Technique good?"
"Anytime. β
"I'll take a look at it later, and when these things retreat, we'll quietly follow. β
"Yes!"
