Chapter 1071: Brood

The fracture with a diameter of more than ten meters resembles a sinkhole, located in the center of the military base. Underneath this sinkhole www.biquge.info at a depth of about 500 meters is an underground bunker designed by the Rothschild Group for experimental purposes.

At this moment, this underground bunker no longer has the slightest breath of life, and is completely covered by a suspicious blood-red flesh bubble, exuding a stench of mystery. If you look closer, you can see that the surface of the meat bubble is covered with dense pustules the size of sesame seeds.

Whenever a pustule ruptures, spore gases are released from it. Thanks to the efforts of these thousands of flesh bubbles, countless spores are born every moment and float down the entrance to the surface, contributing to the expansion of the brood's territory.

In the center of the underground research institute, like the roots of a large tree, there is a mountain of meat, agitating fat meat bubbles. As the heart of the brood, it is both the heart of the brood and the "central processing unit" of the brood. And the tentacles that spread from the soles of its feet and the top of its head are like data cables connecting the host and the slave.

On its belly, there is a coffin carved out of resin, or "culture chamber". Unlike the flesh-red brood, the pitch-black pod looks very hard. Through the palm-wide translucent film, you can vaguely see a person lying inside.

His eyes were open, his gaze resting on the line of numbers in the semi-permeable membrane.

【14731】

Among them, 4,000 were refugee recruits who were brought underground by themselves, and more than 3,000 were from the Pro-Guard Brigade and researchers from the underground research institute, and most of the more than 7,000 were contributed by mercenaries and mobs fighting in the base, and the British also contributed about 6 or 700 people to him just now.

Each person can contribute two units of organic matter, and he has already consumed half of it for strengthening the brood and hatching xenospecies.

"It's not enough. ”

Carmen, who was lying in the culture tank, shook her head and began to reflect on whether she had gone too far.

If they hadn't been wiped out so simply at once, maybe they would have been able to give those British the illusion that "they were just going to win", so as to send more people to fill this pit and provide him with more organic matter and increase his power.

Now, however, the British seem to be much more cautious.

In addition to the constant shelling of the area, no more people are sent in.

Upgrading a secondary brood requires half a million units of organic matter.

There are two sources of organic matter, one is the most primitive photosynthesis, which grows slowly as long as it waits. The other is the quickest and most simple and crude method, which is to eat constantly. Strengthen yourself by devouring living beings and digesting their flesh.

Carmen certainly prefers the latter. If organic matter is obtained from the soil and air by photosynthesis alone, it will only be a few centuries before the territory of the brood expands to the entire world. But if he relied on continuous devouring, he could complete the transformation that took centuries to complete in just a few days.

Thinking of this, Carmen's face couldn't help but flash a trace of resentment.

He chose this place as his brood because of the refugee camp next to the military base, with a population of nearly half a million. If he devoured the population of the refugee camp and ate the nearby town of Partak, he would have completed the first stage of evolution long ago!

The second brood will have even more terrifying powers, not only will the hunting range of the xenomorphs be expanded to 100 kilometers, but he will also be able to unlock new "classes".

For example, a monster called Roshan is said to be able to withstand the fire of tank shells with that fat alone.

However, because of Jiang Chen, who was killed halfway, his plans all failed.

Thinking of this, his teeth clenched together and creaked.

The spores are his eyes and ears, and he can clearly sense everything that is happening in the area covered by the spores. He was sure that night. He "saw" Jiang Chen in the military base, but it was a pity that he couldn't leave him behind.

[Hint, the host is still far from 500,000 organic matter reserves, and it is recommended to upgrade the class first in the early stage of transition.] 】

An idea came straight into his mind, a suggestion from the brood.

There is no need to rely on cumbersome vocal cords to pronounce voices, there is no natural barrier to language and expression ability, and the communication of direct consciousness connection makes Carmen feel more convenient than ever. This is one of the reasons why he admired the greatness of biological civilization after seeing it through the golden apple.

[Do you want to upgrade your troops?] Carmen replied with a chant as she closed her eyes and connected her consciousness to the control center of the brood.

Rows of streamlined upgrade lists appeared in front of him, and after carefully sifting through them, he distributed five thousand organic matter points to strengthen the wings of the Blade Warrior.

The name Blade Warrior was given to the mantis-like alien species. The strengthened Blade Warrior will have longer and more powerful wings on its back, no longer just as an aid to enhance its bounce power, but as a true wing that can fly short distances.

As Carmen finished distributing the organic matter, an indescribable mass of slurry poured down the pipe to the pile of eggs in front of the mother nest, and with the input of organic matter, the eggs began to mutate, along with the new "Blade Warrior" who was about to break out of the cocoon of the eggs.

These eggs are a breeding ground for hatching xenomorphs, and for him, they are like a "barracks".

At that moment, there was a violent tremor from the ceiling.

Raising her eyelids slightly, Carmen's mouth curled into a sneer.

The soil above the shelter has been reinforced by the mother nest, and the fibrous roots weave a layer of "body armor" up to 500 meters thick into the soil, which is as explosion-proof and earthquake-resistant as reinforced concrete. The British threw hundreds of shells on his head, and a layer of concrete was blown up.

The reason why the space-based weapon was able to blast open the entrance was only because the brood had just taken shape, and he hadn't had time to strengthen the entrance yet......

Suddenly, his face changed suddenly, and at the same time, the consciousness of the brood came to his mind in time.

[Warning, the protective layer has been impacted by external forces, and some tissue structures have been broken, so the host is requested to use organic matter to repair it in time.] 】

"Damn! it's a space-based weapon for the Star Ring Trade!"

Carmen cursed secretly, it seemed that he still underestimated the power of the Star Ring Trade space-based weapon. Originally, he thought that a few tungsten core bullets would rub off a layer of skin on the outside of the mother nest at most, but now it seems that it is no longer a matter of a layer of skin. The damage to the protective layer already needs to be repaired by him with organic matter, which is enough for him, who does not have much organic matter!

The amount of organic matter was consumed at a rate visible to the naked eye, and as Carmen anxiously mixed organic matter to fill the gap, a series of devastating cracking sounds came from above him.

Realizing what was happening, Carmen's face changed abruptly, and her facial muscles twisted dramatically.

"Fack!" (To be continued.) )
