Confirming the successful operation of the "Sputnik", both King and Keynes let out a long breath. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Jin felt that it was a pity that she didn't see the New Year's gift she originally gave to Lin Lin.

Keynes breathed a sigh of relief, he was worried that the thing would fall out of mid-air.

Although he still doubted the usefulness of the thing, the multiple methods of delivering information to the outside world would always increase the success rate on their side.

Now that they finally had time to discuss the mother worm, this time the two of them were on the same page - why the mother worm did not infect the contestants with parasites.

"In the future that Garan sees, only 5% of the contestants survive, and almost no one is spared from the space station, which is doubtful in itself. ”

Keynes agreed with King's words, whether it was for the sake of concealment or something else. How did those people survive the Zerg?

"Unless ......" Kim has a bold guess: "The mother worm wants to catch healthy contestants." ”

"What is the catch used for. Keynes thought this speculation was a bit outrageous: "For the sake of eating? Humans are in the Zerg's recipes, but they only ......."

Before he could finish his words, the two of them changed color in unison.

There is only one circumstance in which the Zerg must need humans or a highly intelligent race as nourishment - to hatch a high-level Zerg!

"It shouldn't be possible. Keynes subconsciously wanted to dispel this thought: "Even if it is an A-level Zerg group, there cannot be tens of thousands of high-level Zerg, everyone in the interstellar knows that high-level Zerg are directly laid by the female worm, and an A-level female worm will die after laying thousands of high-grade eggs at most in her lifetime......"

As he said this, he thought of something, and his voice stopped abruptly.

Although the interstellar zerg retains the characteristics of many insects, they also have specificities that are completely different from ordinary insects.

And of all the interstellar zergs, the most special and undetectable for humans is the female worm. It is said that when the mother is conceived, she inherits all the genetic sequences of the previous generation of the mother in her body, and all of these genes are present in her egg cell.

After becoming a female, it first lays an unfertilized egg containing a certain insect gene, hatches it into a male (parthenogenesis), and then lays a female worm of the same male race, which lays a female worm that will become the female worm of the group to which it belongs, also known as the secondary female worm of the group.

All secondary females also maintain racial uniqueness, and the Zerg they give birth to are called medium Zerg.

Only males born directly from the female, and females who cannot become secondary females due to the uniqueness of pheromones, are high-level zergs in the usual sense of the word.

Because of their specific genetic diversity, female worms can give birth to dozens or hundreds of insects.

It takes a lot of energy to give birth to these xenomorph zergs, and because of this, the high-level zergs born to female worms in their lifetime are very limited.

This is also a place for humans to be thankful for, and the higher zergs are rarely on scale. The mother worm does not have the conditions to raise a large number of higher zerg.

The classification of insect tides is based on this.

The single-digit high-level Zerg leading the insect swarm is called the D-level insect tide, and the ten-digit high-level Zerg is the C-level insect tide, and so on, the A-class insect tide led by thousands of high-level Zerg is already an interstellar nightmare.

Not to mention tens of thousands, that can almost sweep most of the stars.

So from the outset, Keynes wanted to rule out this assumption.

But now, when he thought that the mother worm of the Jira system could even evolve a directed suicide insect population in more than 2,000 years, then what could it not do!?

"I think it's probably worse than we think. ”

Kim's face also began to turn ugly, and he already had the same idea as Keynes: "The Zerg may not have other ways to hatch and retain the eggs, so that the high-level Zerg can delay the hatching, which can explain why they have so many contestants." ”

To be precise, for the Zerg, the more advanced the nutrition, the more powerful the high-level Zerg can be hatched, just like humans, the instinct of the creature is to grow and continue their offspring!

Jin took a deep breath: "Keynes, if I'm not mistaken, a high-level zerg, if there is enough nutrition, it only takes ...... to hatch from a pupae to an adult."

"Three days. ”

Three planets close to the main galaxy of Jira, scattered students in three grades for individual competitions, and the Zerg fight for the strength of the whole clan to accumulate strength...... Nine days later, the all-out impact on the Gila defense line, even the Zerg of Star 43 should be deliberately designed, the illusion of the Zerg's weakness!

Needless to say, Kim and Keynes have already begun to try to decipher the communication signals of star 35 in the second grade and star 23 in the third grade:

They must find out as soon as possible whether this speculation is true or not!

On the planet Gila 35, Aize has sensed that something is obviously wrong, the Zerg are not killing less and less as expected, on the contrary, they seem to be constantly getting more and stronger. Even he had a feeling that he couldn't resist.

Just now, he was even chased by dozens of medium zergs, and if it hadn't happened to meet Esher Hayabusa and Nate Huasuo, who were also being hunted down, and the three of them escaped together, he might have been defeated by now and became their rations.

As soon as he arrived in a relatively safe area, Aize began to contact his team members with all his might, and normal light-brain communication could not be contacted, so he quickly switched to the special contact method he had prepared.

"What is the competition going on!" Nate Huasuo, who was the most impatient, was furious: "This is not sending us to kill insects at all, but to kill us! Which bastard designed the individual competition! They should let the military court talk to them about their lives!"

"The first thing we need to save is our lives. Esie Hayabusa was a rare response to Nate's nonsense, and he was already trying his best to contact his teammates: "Don't tell me how you didn't contact your teammates. ”

"Fools don't!" Nate Huasuo stopped complaining and tried his best to reach out to his teammates.

I don't know if it's their luck, or if the strength of the cadets of the Second Military Academy is much higher than that of other schools, at least so far, their team members are still alive and well.

And Aize has never been able to contact Boluo, and the other team members are fine, and when he finally contacted Boluo, there was a terrible cry over there, and his heart suddenly sank, but immediately after, he heard:

"Woo (┯_┯), team, captain! I, I ......"

"What's wrong with you, don't talk nonsense!" Ezer was unusually irritable.

Bo Luo snorted twice: "Captain, I, my mecha has been gnawed off by insects! ”

Ezer: "......" this kind of guy should have gnawed at his brain!
