Chapter 8: Genetic recombination and enhancement after the bizarre death of cannon bugs

Taking advantage of this, Stygian had great expectations, and went to the nest where the artillery insects concentrated to eat and live.

The purpose is to make some emergency arrangements for these cannonworms in advance before the fort on the ground is completed.

For example, in the event of a sudden situation, they can be dispatched without receiving orders from their superiors to start the first artillery battle to protect the entire base.

……

Speaking of which, insects with huge abilities like cannon bugs have a very high status in today's race, and they are also the highest unit of troops in addition to the underworld and the female worm, and only the underworld and the female worm can mobilize them.

At the same time, under the high Zerg unit, the cannon bugs have other bugs to serve them every day, and they can enjoy a lot of food and resources.

Soon, after wandering around the labyrinth in the base for a while, he finally came to the cave of the cannon worm.

But at this moment, the nest ** has been crowded with countless insects, and each insect is very restless and seems to have been greatly stimulated.

"What's going on?" The underworld directly conveys the will of a king in the rear.

At this time, the countless insects suddenly quieted down, and parted to both sides very fearfully, and they cleared a great avenue with dignity and humility.

And in front of the avenue, Ming clearly saw all the red cannon insects lying motionless on the ground, and didn't seem to notice his arrival.

But I knew something was wrong!

So with a nervous and questioning heart, I quickly crawled over, and when I was close at hand, it turned out that the cannon insects had collectively stopped the beating of life and died collectively!

What's going on? Could it be that the bugs have some April Fool's Day too...... Or is it a day of suspended animation?

But if all this is pretended, then this special acting is also amazing...... Realistic enough.

"What happened?"

However, Ming is really angry at this moment, the Zerg has a fart April Fool's Day and Fake Death Festival, but his weapons and bugs are really all dead!

The surrounding insects shrank their necks in fear in the face of the underworld at this time, but they were so bold that none of the insects stood up to report, as if the collective death of the cannon insects affected their thinking and judgment, and questioned the obedience of the underworld.

Why should we listen to you? Such a big thing should be told to the insect queen first!

The next moment, sure enough, there were a few giant worker insects who wanted to report to the mother worm, but completely ignored the questioning of the underworld.

"Just come here, and the king immediately needs to know what is going on here?"

The Titan Worm Body directly opened the fourth-gear mode, and the size instantly became larger, and the will exploded instantly, and the whole appearance was highly terrifying.

If it weren't for the fact that this nest was only more than four meters high, he would have directly opened ten gears to deter these bugs who ignored his words.

I really don't have a point in my heart, doesn't he have the right to deal with and know about major things?

At this time, several giant workers who wanted to leave were intimidated on the spot, and that terrifying will crushed the last line of defense in their hearts.

Submit to......

"Venerable Hades, a bizarre and strange thing has just happened here, the cannon worm bosses who are tearing flesh and blood suddenly die en masse one by one!"

"Bizarre oddities? Death while tearing flesh? ”

"Yes, they were having a delicious breakfast of the flesh and blood of the timberwolves!"

After listening to it, this thing is really bizarre!

It can't be food poisoning, right? He also ate this wolf meat, and there was no food problem at all.

So he examined each of the shellworms, and suddenly he noticed something.

Why do each cannonworm have some strange scars on their bodies?

"They've fought each other?"

"Nope!"

Uh-oh...... That's weird!

Where do the scars come from?

No, these scars seem to have spread from the inside outward!

In the next moment, in order to find the real reason, Ming directly raised his sharp blade, like a knife on an operating table, and easily cut open the stomach of a cannon worm.

The intestines in the worm's stomach were all melted and messed up, to the point of blurred flesh and blood, and even disgusting, as if it had been destroyed by something, which led to the deterioration of the condition.

At the same time, the cannon sac that generated the energy of the cannon fire inside was actually torn apart.

At this moment, Hades seems to have discovered some reason......

Could it be that the self-destruct mode is turned on?

No, it should be the sequelae of killing a thousand enemies and self-inflicting eight hundred, maybe it's easier to convince yourself!

In order to verify this reasonable and most likely idea, Hades cut open the bodies of several more cannon worms!

Sure enough, they all have similar problems.

After verifying this, after thinking about it carefully, and even after making various assumptions, he felt that he had found the key to the problem.

"Although the bugs have extraordinary abilities, they do not have the corresponding body structure and strength!"

It immediately dawned on him that the power of the artillery fire was indeed very strong! But they are still the flesh of primitive bugs, and they are not much strengthened!

And although his artillery bugs resisted the high temperature generated during the firing process, they could not fully withstand the threat brought to them by the artillery fire during the process of generation and launch, which caused internal injuries in the body.

Once the cannon capsule is cooled, it will start to produce energy masses for the next cannon, but their internal injuries cannot be recovered in time, so the body will not be able to withstand the re-formation of this energy, and finally it can only continue to deteriorate, leading them to their final death.

And what accelerates their death is food, eating food can replenish them a lot of energy, and accelerating the conversion into cannon energy in the cannon sac .......

Moreover, this wolf meat is high-energy food.

I see!

He thought that the cannon bug that could be used infinitely became a failure product and a one-time use product!

"Hey...... Move these corpses into the hatchery substrate and let the bugs at the hatchery base properly break them down into the hatching pool! ”

"Yes!"

Then he turned and left, believing that they would carry the corpses over!

When I returned to my main hall, I meditated for a long time, and controlled the incubation technology of the Zerg gene DNA from the system, and I didn't seem to play the extreme, or the real role!

What is gene breakdown? What is a gene combination? There doesn't seem to be any restriction on decomposition numbers and group sum numbers.

"Hmph, Lao Tzu must hatch real cannon worms!"

Unconvinced! He decided to solve this problem immediately, otherwise the cannon bugs could only be used once and then exploded, which was too resource-intensive.

"If they don't have a strong body, I will genetically create a strong body for them, and even improve in all aspects."

Hades decided to immediately go out to find a genetic species with strong physical bodies and defenses, and also fuse them with a genetic species with long-range attacks.

So, he took a thousand red ant special forces as the army for this mission, and quickly got out of the underground base.

The goal is the Sea of Stone Forest.

If he's not mistaken, where is the genetic species he needs, from the primitive pangolin clan with absolute defense!

As for the safety of the base, there are still flamethrowers that can be guarded, as long as the hole in the base is connected to the ground, nothing can break through the flamethrower's defense.

These questions have been arranged!

And why not go down to a depth of several thousand meters from his base.
