Volume II, Chapter 122
Genetic rejection, Shi Leiyin's first thought after his body had problems was this term. When absorbing the snow wolf cubs, Shi Leiyin found that the body of the doppelganger had changed involuntarily, but because the changed form was the appearance of the snow wolf, Shi Leiyin thought that it was because he had been practicing partial mimicry in the past few days, so after absorbing the new genes, the body instinctively carried out partial mimicry, so he didn't pay too much attention to this problem.
And after devouring and absorbing the pangolin, the problem erupted. With the completion of this absorption, Shi Leiyin suddenly felt a strong pain coming from every part of the clone, accompanied by this pain is a sharp change in the size of the doppelganger, Lemut spider, ice tooth dragon, cold wind dove, wind snow wolf, pangolin and so on The body form continues to appear and disappear, and Shi Leiyin's body is also like a neon sign constantly changing colors, all the objects that Shi Leiyin has devoured, including the same kind of strawberry slime and poison slime and other images have appeared.
Fortunately, this pain did not last long, only a few minutes, and after the pain, Shi Leiyin's doppelganger immediately returned to the most primitive ontology, not Shi Leiyin's form when he devoured the pangolin, but the most ordinary blue slime form, the most important thing is that Shi Leiyin found that the doppelganger seemed to have changed back to the most primitive slime at this time, not only all abilities could not be used, but even vision became the vague feeling when Shi Leiyin first arrived in this world, and the sense of hearing, smell and taste was completely gone, and only the sense of touch was still partially retained。 Fortunately, this state did not last long, and it was only about ten minutes, and a warm current passed from the painful place before, and all abilities were restored, and the five senses also returned to normal.
As the clone returned to normal, Shi Leiyin was also relieved, at least there was no need to abandon this clone. Not daring to use the ability of mimicry change anymore, Shi Leiyin controlled the clone to find a cave that only slimes or snakes could enter, and hid, and then began to carefully examine the doppelganger's situation.
The situation that was shown before the doppelganger was very much in line with the kind of genetic rejection that Thunder knew of in the kind of fused creatures that often appeared in science fiction or comics. The biggest reason for this is that the number of genes or gene strength that exceeds the limit of its own capacity is obtained, which is manifested in morphological collapse, uncontrollable, etc., and the lighter ones will lose their fusion ability, and the worst ones will directly cause death due to gene collapse. Shi Leiyin thinks that what happened to his doppelganger should be relatively minor, because it was only a short period of change, and the ability was restored after the rejection. But Shi Leiyin couldn't figure out why this happened to him. According to the information that Slimin received from the Fruit of Original Sin, the Devouring Slime can be said to be the most perfect fusion creature, because the Devouring Slime does not directly add the genes of the Devouring Fusion Object to its own genes, but completely memorizes the subject's genes and uses its own genes to perfectly simulate them when needed. This simulation method will not only remember the other party's ** information, but also remember the opponent's magic structure, so after the simulation and the devoured object is almost no different, although it cannot exert more powerful strength like some fusion creatures, but theoretically put an end to the phenomenon of gene rejection and gene regurgitation.
But now the doppelganger is indeed showing the symptoms of genetic rejection, and unlike Shi Leiyin knows, the rejection symptoms of the doppelganger are serious, but the result is even milder than the mildest result, basically except for the pain after the symptoms and the original form for a few minutes, there are no other sequelae.
This double inconsistency, the first thing that made Shi Leiyin think was that he was an existence that did not conform to the information of the fruit of original sin. It may be true that the Devouring Slime does not suffer from genetic rejection, but because of the human soul, it has surpassed the level of the highest level of the Devouring Slime recorded in the Fruit of Original Sin information. And at the same time, the problem with himself now is a clone that has almost all the abilities, and the devouring slime does not have the ability of the clone, although this kind of slime can also simulate the existence of multiple bodies such as ant colonies, but each individual is a part of the body, and once it is lost, it will hurt the body, but it will not be like a clone like Sleiyin, even if it dies, it will not have any impact on the body.
Thinking of the doppelganger, Shi Leiyin suddenly realized that perhaps the biggest problem was in the doppelganger. Although this time, in order to exercise the ability of partial mimicry, the doppelganger has almost all the abilities of the ontology. But there are still some differences with the body, one of the bigger differences is that the body has the organ that devours and fuses, and the clone cannot be completely replicated. This part of the organ, even Shi Leiyin himself, after many observations, can only understand part of the principle of its work, and it is impossible to completely simulate this part of the organ when creating a clone. Therefore, the phagocytosis and fusion organ in the body is just a specious thing, although it can also extract the genes and magic structure of the prey, but it is more to store the original genes of the other party. After examining this organ, Shi Leiyin could basically determine that the genetic rejection of the clone was caused by the imperfection of this part of the organ. Because there is no complete memory of the replication gene, so when it is used, it is the gene of the prey that is directly extracted, and when there is only the gene of the snow wolf, it is naturally not a problem, and the other genes are all memorized by the body, and it is only the gene of the clone itself, and after the gene of the pangolin is added, the rejection of the two newly added genes naturally occurs.
The reason for the rejection phenomenon was found, and as for the reason for the recovery of the clone, Shi Leiyin also found the approximate reason by checking the doppelganger's body. This time the clone is different from the past, it has most of the abilities of the body, and more importantly, Shi Leiyin himself created a slime core for this clone without paying attention. Because the Devouring Slime does not have the ability to split and reproduce, the core of the clone does not have the ability to turn into a slime on its own, but the proprioceptive memory ability that is the core of the slime is retained. Therefore, after the gene rejection phenomenon occurs in the clone, and there is a damage problem, this core automatically reinitializes the clone according to the memory, first reverts to the original state, and then slowly converts to the most perfect state in memory. This process was originally a very long process for the slime to slowly absorb the surrounding energy after losing **. However, due to the special nature of the doppelganger, after the genetic rejection occurs, the core judges that the doppelganger is dead, and the ** that still exists is used by the core as an energy source to reset the body, and the part of the time that is completely incapacitated in the middle is the process of the core using excess energy to restore its ability after initialization.
