Volume 3 Chapter 58 Brought by the Doppelganger
Ku's worries are naturally unclear. Taking advantage of the fact that he didn't need to take care of Sanxiao, Shi Leiyin was busy increasing his strength. In addition to experimenting with various forms of magic core magic on the layer master clone, other clones will also bring Shi Leiyin some different experiences.
As a devouring fusion slime, Shi Lei Yin is actually not very qualified. Because except for one time when he parasitized on the Tyrannosaurus, Shi Leiyin almost always relied on active attacks to kill creatures to obtain the genes he needed. This means that most of Shi Leiyin's genes are actually weaker than himself, and there are no strong genes other than his particularity.
Now that she has a boarding hatchling, she has gained a lot of special new experiences—the experience of being a weak person and boarding in a strong person's body.
At first, Shi Leiyin naturally didn't expect that he would get these experiences by making this kind of boarding-type larval clone. There is no devouring fusion slime in his mind at all, and the self-conscious Shi Lei Yin is only because of the special persistence of the otaku that the entire biological form will be perfected.
However, in the previous experience of possessing a special body in order to show the connection between the juvenile and the adult, Shi Leiyin vaguely felt something strange. These anomalies were confirmed when Shi Leiyin re-descended on a juvenile doppelganger.
It was a special feeling of security and hunger. Having had the experience of releasing almost all the energy in his body, Shi Leiyin naturally had that extremely strong feeling of hunger. But since leaving the apple tree where he first came into this world, he has barely felt that sense of security, and he never feels completely safe at any time. The powerful perception ability makes Shi Leiyin feel that there are more powerful creatures around him almost all the time, and this feeling of not being able to guarantee the safety of his life and the devouring instinct are stimulating Shi Leiyin's nerves all the time. To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Shi Leiyin was a nervous person who was very able to tolerate the status quo during his human life, I am afraid that he would have been stimulated by these two feelings and turned into a devouring fusion creature that frantically devoured and strengthened himself.
However, now this juvenile clone has brought Shi Leiyin an illusion of security. This juvenile doppelganger was parasitic in the body of a giant pangolin of about level seven, a magical beast with a name and appearance that resembled a large pangolin, and only a pitiful first order. In addition to being the size of a bull, it has only one more rock-shattering magic than a normal beast, allowing it to easily move through the ground, rocks, and even minerals. The juvenile doppelganger was the one that the pangolin burrowed into through the cracks in its scales as it passed by. Although Shi Leiyin thoughtfully equipped these young clones with sharp toothed mouthparts that could easily penetrate most of the body of the demonic beasts, it still had no effect on the scales of this pangolin. However, in the same way, entering the body of the pangolin through the gap in the scales will not create a flaw on the surface of the pangolin's body, making this not very powerful monster easily become a prey in the eyes of adventurers.
From the moment the hatchlings lodged near the core of the pangolin, that sense of security began to affect Shi Leiyin's spirit. As a host, as long as the host is not in danger, the host in its body will not be in any danger. At the same time, there is such a layer of autonomous external protection, and there is enough time to deal with any situation that can threaten him, which is not the same as the state of Shi Leiyin's body has been exposed to the outside. This illusion of security almost made Shi Leiyin addicted.
And what made Shi Leiyin wake up from this delusion was the hunger of the juveniles. After this evolution, Shi Leiyin's body has returned to a state of full energy again. And for some reason, Shi Leiyin has basically kept his body in the most energetic state, so basically the hunger or something has basically been lost since he woke up from this evolution. Similarly, because there is no hunger, Shi Leiyin's instinct as a devouring creature has also been suppressed to a very low state, except for the urge to eat the other party every time he sees the library to obtain genes, his body is basically in a state of no desire.
However, after the consciousness entered the larvae, it was different, because it was just a kind of false larvae designed, Shi Leiyin did not give these larvae clones too much energy, almost less than one-ten-thousandth of his own body energy. Therefore, after the larvae spend energy to burrow into the host body, they will soon start to absorb the host body's energy due to lack of energy. The juvenile clones who are limited by Shi Leiyin to the upper limit of the energy they can have often only need to slightly absorb some of the magic power that escapes from the blood or magic core of the host body to reach the upper limit of their own magic power. Then, under the pre-set command of Shi Leiyin, he expanded himself slightly as if he had grown up. Then I felt the hunger again, and I continued to eat and grow. After repeating this hundreds of times, under the effect of a random switch designed by Shi Leiyin, it entered the first sphere, and at the same time sent a response to Shi Leiyin's body, summoning Shi Leiyin's consciousness to descend, transform and reset the growth times.
Of course, these are a series of processes that the doppelganger will carry out autonomously when Shi Leiyin does not possess his consciousness to the doppelganger. And Shi Leiyin's possession of such a rudimentary juvenile clone is also a personal verification of the success of his design. However, the added benefit of this verification was a surprise for Shi Leiyin.
In the process of repeated hunger and growth, Shi Leiyin found that his devouring instinct was stimulated to a certain extent. Although this doppelganger has been removed from the ability to devour and fuse in the process of manufacturing, the hunger in consciousness obviously affected Shi Leiyin's body at the same time, which was far away in the fifth layer, and the devouring instinct of the body began to affect Shi Leiyin's consciousness in turn, which made the Shi Leiyin cells that made up the clone recover part of their devouring and fusion ability under the influence of the main consciousness.
This restored devouring fusion ability was deliberately canceled by Shi Leiyin during the production process, so even if it was restored, it would not be able to reproduce the effect of Shi Leiyin's body that was extremely powerful and fused whatever he ate. However, it can analyze the dominant genes or magical structures in the blood or flesh of those absorbed demonic beasts, although it is not possible to copy and transform these dominant genes or magical structures into the doppelgangers themselves, but they can leave a complete record in Shi Leiyin's consciousness, and at the same time, Shi Leiyin's body can reproduce the information obtained by these clones through simulation.
This unexpected joy directly made Shi Leiyin smile. Previously, if Shi Leiyin wanted to obtain the dominant genes of some creatures through the clone, not only did he have to make a clone that was almost not much different from the main body, but he also had to bear the risk of genetic collapse caused by the clone not being able to fuse too many xenogeneous genes. The most important thing is that once the doppelganger accidentally loses its connection with the main body, there is a certain chance that it will become an independent individual, or the kind of individual that acts completely by the instinct of devouring fusion creatures. When the time comes, I can't figure out that I will be eaten by my own doppelganger.
Now this boarding larval clone has brought Shi Leiyin a new and safe way to obtain which biological advantage genes. These juvenile doppelgangers are not only made with low energy consumption, but are not afraid of loss. At the same time, because they do not carry out gene fusion, there will be a genetic collapse, which will not affect their consciousness. The most important thing is that these low-level clones can't survive outside the control range of the ontology at all, and once they leave the scope of the ontological consciousness, they will directly collapse into a puddle of slime juice.
With such a safe, low-cost method, the only question left is what level of creature it can parasitize on.
