Chapter 167: Sharp questioning
In the days before finding the Wind Bride, Tang Mo and the others, who knew that once asexual reproduction was carried out, the offspring born would inevitably devour them when they encountered humans, Tang Mo and the others completely gave up the idea of expanding the population in traditional ways. And once sexual reproduction is adopted www.biquge.info the human children born are completely unable to survive in the universe.
Therefore, from the destruction of the Californian to the robbery of the Wind Bride, Tang Mo and their all-human adventitious insect population have never added new members. It wasn't until they were treated as human beings that they gave birth to their own human offspring on board.
Therefore, in the face of the half-human adventitious insects from the White Swan, which are trying to feast on them, and are determined to protect their homes and families, they will turn off the various enemy detection devices of the Wind Bride on the night when they sense that a foreign enemy is coming, so as to hide from all the sleeping human crews, and engage in a bloody battle with the half-human kind near the hull shell of the Wind Bride.
The battle, which did not last long, ended in a complete victory for the all-humanoid adventitious worm. Subsequently, instead of chasing the two half-humanoids who escaped, Tang Mo and the others, who immediately tortured the three captured captives, learned some news about Zhou Huai'an.
The half-human adventitious worm based on the White Swan has successfully reached the sixth planet of the Karen star system. However, due to the dust on the surface of the planet, because of the special mineral dust, once it enters the body of the adventitious insect, it will cause irresistible damage to the humanoid indefinite indefinite, so they do not plan to continue to stay on the sixth planet, but choose to live elsewhere.
Tang Mo and the others, who learned about the dust on the mineral ground from this news, made a judgment in their hearts that Zhou Huai'an and they would not continue to stay in the inner regions of the twelve planets of the Karen star system, so when the demihumanoid adventitious insect had already prepared, disguised and concealed itself, the surprise attack between the asteroid belt and the satellite ring would be so unexpected by Tang Mo and the others.
"According to you, mineral dust can have a huge negative impact on you, so why are you going to the sixth planet with the ordinary humans on the Wind Bride? Aren't you afraid that you will be uncontrollably deformed, and eventually lose your mind and devour your relatives and friends around you? ”
In the quiet hospital room, Dior, who was asking such a question, guessed and answered himself in his heart. And his preset answer was exactly the same as the correct answer provided by Tang Mo, who smiled slightly.
"The oxygen required for the survival of adventitious insects can be fully consumed by eating food, so as humans know, we who have long adapted to the vacuum state in the universe do not need to breathe. Because of the fully human transformation, we have lungs, so we learn to breathe, and this way of obtaining oxygen really causes dust from the ground to enter our body. ”
"However, if we don't breathe after landing on the surface, this mineral dust won't enter our bodies and affect us unless we have suffered a trauma or eaten something wrong. Therefore, before Ping An did not awaken, the sixth planet was indeed a very dangerous place for her, but now that she has awakened, then she can also live on the sixth planet by giving up her breathing and relying only on food to obtain the necessary oxygen elements. ”
From Tang Mo's explanation, it was thought of Captain Vidner, knowing that the decision-making crew of World A was completely because they didn't dare to take the risk of awakening her, so they gave up breathing, so as to avoid ingesting mineral dust, so they mercilessly chose to wipe her out of peace, and after a little thought, he asked such a question: "Since you can think of this, then why don't you doubt that Zhou Huai'an can also use the way of giving up her breath to live on the sixth planet unharmed?" ”
"I admit that it was indeed an oversight on our part." Through Ping'an's words, thinking of the soldiers who had died in the battle ten days ago, Tang Mo's eyebrows were filled with obvious grief and depression.
"But, ask yourself, we don't want to be sniped! After all, our family and friends live on the Wind Bride, and there is no reason for us to know that there is danger ahead, but not think of a way to incorporate this danger into our combat readiness plan, so as to ensure that we can effectively respond to it when necessary, right? ”
"There's a question," Qingye, who had been silent since Tang Mo began to explain, and Aoba who was listening and thinking about it, interjected: "Since you boarded the Wind Bride, haven't you used the method of asexual reproduction at all to breed offspring?" After all, the Wind Bride is a normal death every year, right? ”
"I know what you mean, it's nothing more than saying that although in the face of the living, we can't give birth to adventitious offspring to devour them, but the dead will be put into the organic conversion furnace for recycling, and eventually become invisible, so we don't need to use the corpse to expand the population of the whole human adventitious insect, right?"
Raising his eyes and looking directly at Aoba, Tang Mo, who did not feel offended or suspicious because of his question, said categorically: "No, by devouring the dead, this kind of thing has never happened to let the offspring of asexual reproduction gain the ability to transform into humans." I can assure you that since the destruction of the Californian, we have never had a single offspring that reproduces asexually. ”
"After all, many of my kind have now become parents, grandparents, and grandparents on the Wind Bride, and have their own human offspring. And even if some people don't have a family yet, they have good friends who are ordinary humans, so they can't tolerate their vegetatively reproduced offspring to devour any humans who are of the same species as their relatives and friends. After all, it is impossible for a person to die of his own kind and then eat them as domestic animals that provide meat for consumption, can he? ”
Facing Tang Mo's words, Aoba nodded with satisfaction, but his next question still didn't seem very friendly: "Then can I think that there is no one on the Wind Bride who died because of your relationship as an uncertain insect?" ”
