Chapter 280: Transfiguration Failed
Finding a technological artifact and not choosing to turn it in is seen as a betrayal of the population as a whole. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info and the indefinite worm judged to be a traitor will be permanently disqualified from being distributed devouring references.
Because of such strict regulations, as long as the adventitious insects found in the container find an artificial object with scientific and technological content inside the box after opening the box, then they will inevitably hand over the discovery to the human form, thereby promoting the scientific and technological development of the entire population, and thus helping themselves to live a better life in the future.
As for how to explain where the container was found, the nest's adventitious worm certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to answer that it was found near an undersea volcano.
Not wanting to be condemned and punished by the authorities for temporarily hiding the container, the nest's adventitious worm had already made up his mind, presumably accidentally spotting it somewhere on the ocean floor.
After all, the deep-sea adventitious worm landed on the sixth planet earlier than the half-human adventitious worm, and with such a pioneer, naturally no demi-human adventitious worm would stand up and submit evidence that "the container was not randomly discarded in the sea by the deep-sea adventitious worm after landing on the sixth planet".
The adventitious insects, who are looking forward to the high-tech artifacts stored in the containers, are reluctant to share their discoveries with their fellow hives in the final analysis.
Adventitious insects, which contribute the most to the entire population in the nest, can enjoy better living conditions and have higher treatment. Therefore, even if they do not have high intelligence, they can still rely on their instincts to figure out what kind of life is hard, what kind of life is easy and pleasant, and the inhuman adventitious worm is naturally unwilling to share great feats with its fellow members of other nests.
A few days after the end of the deep-sea war, he took his companions to the sea to salvage the adventitious worm that was buried under the seabed, calculated the time, and quietly brought the container disguised with the changed aliens to the shore and sent it to his lair under the shelter of night.
The nest ** department, the uncertain insects who lifted the camouflage of the container, opened the box with full expectation. And in this well-preserved, still impermeable and watertight container, among the many nuclear wastes, there are more than a dozen human corpses.
I don't know what the humans on the spaceship did with these corpses, but the indefinite insects only saw that among the nuclear waste, the corpses that had been dead for an unknown number of years still maintained the appearance of a dry corpse that could be recognized with its facial features and appearance.
Found an artificial object that can be used for research and use by humanoid adventitious insects, non-humanoid adventitious insects are naturally very willing to hand it in. Anyway, man-made objects are useless to them. However, in addition to the useless nuclear waste and container shells, the remaining finds are actually more than a dozen corpses, and such a discovery is not a non-humanoid adventitious insect willing to hand in.
There are no humans on the deserted continent now, and the Hope has long been missing, and it is basically impossible for the population led by Zhou Huai'an to obtain the devouring reference in such an environment.
Therefore, it was very clear that if these corpses were handed in, they did not know when they would be able to see the human nest again, and in an instant they reached a consensus to cut them first and then swallow them.
"Anyway, we don't have the heart to rebel, even if we become humanoid indeterminates, we will still serve the entire population, so what does it matter if we swallow the corpse we found?"
It's not that they didn't think that the reason why they were able to find the container was entirely because the adventitious insects fighting in the canyon led all the deep-sea adventitious insects away from the relationship of the submarine volcano. Therefore, objectively speaking, the credit for finding the container cannot in fact be monopolized by the adventitious worm of the nest.
But the desire to evolve is too strong to resist. So, they who said that they were unwilling to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so they held the attitude of "if there is no one, if there is a life, anyway, the corpses have been swallowed by me, and I will follow up what you want", and "eliminated" all the dried corpses.
These weren't the dried corpses that the nest of adventitious worms had found entirely on their own, and how they were distributed, Ping An didn't know. All she knew was that more than a dozen adventitious insects, including the first discoverer of the container, not only failed to evolve as they wished, but instead went berserk one by one after each swallowed all the corpses in the box.
The normal state of life is that the adventitious insects wandering around the universe have long been accustomed to all kinds of radiation, and for them, even the radiation of nuclear waste is nothing.
It's just that human beings born on the earth can't bear nuclear radiation, so it is conceivable to what extent these corpses lying with nuclear waste are contaminated by nuclear radiation.
If the corpses in the container were handed over to the humanoid adventitious insects, then Zhou Huai'an would probably find a way to dispose of these corpses, so as to try to save their value as a reference for devouring. However, not only do the non-humanoid adventitious insects not possess the ability to dispose of corpses in this way, but they do not even have the consciousness to do so.
So, swallow this mouthful, and things will naturally be tragic.
Before he died, he didn't know whether he was infiltrated and eroded by viruses, heavy metals, or nuclear waste, and after being put in a container, he lay down with these nuclear wastes for decades. The remains that were found, and every cell that was preserved, were no longer what normal human cells should be.
Using a completely wrong sample as a reference, even if it is not afraid of nuclear radiation at all, the adventitious worm that tries to humanize it is bound to go down a completely wrong path.
What's more, a dried corpse is not at all comparable to a fresh corpse, which is missing from the beginning because of its own decay, rather than a complete devouring reference. As a result, these more than a dozen adventitious insects that are eager to humanoid and finally complete themselves and transform themselves into things are not only not humans, but simply terrifying monsters who don't know what they are.
The sudden appearance of the monsters and their loss of control caused a huge commotion in an instant. With the escalation and spread of the riots, the sub-outer circle and the outermost circle of the desolate continent have fallen into a state of disorderly chaos in many places.
Under such circumstances, as the manager of the sub-outer circle and the outermost circle of the mainland, Eugene, who was pretended by Tang Mo, naturally needed to go to quell this riot.
