Chapter 356: The Weakness of Planarian Cells
A witch who holds a mysterious witchcraft, an ancestral spirit guardian with an immortal body, and a witch king who calls himself the "Ancestral God of Buyeo".
After listening to Yu Chi Baolin's interrogation report, Bai Yuqi raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, it sounds like this witch king still has a few brushes.
The information tortured from the mouths of these Goguryeo people showed that this Goguryeo shamanic witch king had mastered the ability to control planarian cells.
Not only is he able to give planarian cells to others, but he can also transform them into shamans controlled by planarian cells.
Although it was not known how the Witch King had acquired this ability, it was not surprising that he was able to develop extraordinary power from planarian cells.
Because planarian cells themselves have the ability to absorb free energy particles in space.
All the Witch King had to do was to figure out how to use the energy, which wasn't too difficult.
And shamanism itself is a primitive belief system that worships nature.
It is not surprising that the worship of natural totems such as mountains, rivers, ghosts, and gods gives them the power of faith that comes from the spiritual and soul level.
This is the inevitable direction of development for all planes, sprouting extraordinary power from scratch.
It's just that before the Datang time and space were transformed by demons, they were in a demonless environment, and they could only show their supernatural through primitive pharmacy and weak spiritual power.
If future generations develop in the field of technology, they will be labeled as spreading "superstitions".
However, it cannot be denied that the primitive belief system is still somewhat unique, at least the most likely to produce the supernatural power of the mysterious side, which is not uncommon even on the earth without demons, and has even been recognized by science.
After possessing the golden finger of planarian cells, the Witch King developed skills that could drive supernatural energy, which was just a matter of course.
It's just that this witch king is more unlucky that he was also trapped in a negative energy environment while obtaining the golden finger of planarian cells, so that this magical cell can only develop lame legs and narrow the road by himself.
Otherwise, maybe he would be the pioneer of the extraordinary power of the Datang space-time plane.
Through the study of planarian cells, Bai Yuqi found that he initially thought that the Goguryeo people were parasitic by this mysterious cell was wrong, but now it seems that they are more like a symbiotic relationship, like the relationship between humans and the mitochondria in the body.
That is, the planarian cells themselves are harmless.
It's just that after being forcibly colonized into the human body, it will devour and replace the original cells of the human body in a relatively rough way.
This "substitution" of symbiosis is obviously more acceptable than the integration of mitochondria with humans in the long evolutionary process.
After all, after being replaced by planarian cells, human beings can only retain their own consciousness, and even the whole person is no longer the original self.
If a person is no longer even his own cell, then is he still himself?
However, these ethical issues aside, the improvement of planarian cells on the strength of the human body is very staggering.
Even when these Goguryeo people did not give full play to the ability of planarian cells, they still had 20 points of extraordinary physique, 18 points of agility, and 15 points of strength.
This also led to the fact that any Goguryeo civilian had a combat power far superior to that of Yu Chi Jingde, a talented humanoid monster.
It's no wonder that in the previous battle, the Infinite Knights, who were already [Rank 1] professionals, looked so embarrassed in the fight-like attack of the opposing king, and they were almost captured alive.
But if you want to talk about weaknesses, it's not nothing.
First of all, these Goguryeo people, who were originally just ordinary people, did not have any combat skills at all.
Even under the influence of some mystery, he will lose his mind and fall into a state of rage, but he only knows how to instinctively hit with his fists, kicks, and even bite with his teeth.
The power given to them by the powerful planarian cells is simply not exerted in battle.
This also shows that the planarian cells give these Goguryeo people only physical advantages, but do not give them a strong fighting instinct, and do not affect their own consciousness.
I have to say that planarian cells are really a kind of parasitic creatures that are Buddha-like to have no desires, as long as they can survive by the human body, as for the rest, it is up to fate.
Although they exist in the form of clusters, they themselves magically do not possess cluster consciousness, so they are driven and used by external consciousness.
In a way, planarian cells are similar to the fantasy creatures of science fiction movies "Venom", except that they are more thoroughly integrated with the host and less aggressive.
This aroused Bai Yuqi's great interest, and with the cooperation of several captives and even took the initiative, he studied a lot of things.
Although planarian cells are insensitive to elemental energy and highly resistant, they are not immune to the effects of matter-altering spells.
For example, it is easy to trap them with [Mire] and [Quicksand], and it is easy to bury them alive with [Soil Moving] and [Pit Building], although this will not kill them, but it will also make them no longer a threat.
Moreover, through various extreme experiments on planarian cells, Bai Yuqi also found their only weakness.
They are not afraid of fire, electricity, or cold, but they are afraid of acid!
No matter how powerful they are, planarian cells are still only in the realm of living beings, and they are not truly immortal and immortal.
Their strength comes from the power of the cluster.
Individual cells are also fragile and unable to withstand the damage of various elements.
If the temperature is high to a certain extent, it will be burned into ashes, if the voltage is high to a certain extent, it will be vaporized, and if the temperature is low to a certain extent, it will freeze through the cell wall.
It can only be said that their adaptability to extreme environments is unimaginably high.
But when they come into contact with strong acids, they melt like slugs that have been sprinkled with salt.
Looking at the planarian cell tissue that quickly disappeared in the acid of the petri dish, Bai Yuqi twitched the corner of his mouth, this is really a weakness that makes people speechless?
And after understanding the characteristics of planarian cells, Bai Yuqi was even able to find a hundred ways to target them.
For example, a low-level [dehydration] can cause them to lose their moisture and die, or fall into a cryptobiotic state and become inactive.
But destroying this kind of mysterious cell, which is actually harmless, is not Bai Yuqi's main purpose, he is more interested in whether he can use this super cell!
