Chapter 207: Colorful Lurkers
The claws of the insect queen "stabbed" on the body of the lurker, and then put it in the mouth to chew, making the sound of the muscle meridians being torn.
"Mother worm, do you want to parse the sequence?" The insect queen warmly invited Zhao Yi to eat a little of the meat of the lurker, and Zhao Yi's face was a little green.
"Uh.... No, thanks. ”
Zhao Yi rejected the kindness of the insect queen with an embarrassed face, and the insect queen didn't care about these details, she continued to analyze the muscle tissue of the lurker.
Anyway, as an alien brain, it seems a little wrong not to master a little genetic analysis skills. What's more, the reason why Zhao Yi refused to analyze the genetic sequence of the lurker by eating muscle was that Zhao Yi did not have the organ that the insect queen said at all.
The Queen of Blades implanted loyalty in him, and nothing else. However, the Queen of Blades doesn't necessarily have any organs herself, but she can regulate her genes to create the alien unit she wants.
"Queen worm, can you tell me how that organ of yours achieved the cutting and chimerism of the gene sequence?" Zhao Yi wanted to know how it worked.
"Use psionic powers, Mother Worm. Within that organ, we are able to use psionic energy to manipulate the cutting and chimerization of sequences. Achieve the desired gene sequence. ”
The queen said as she walked over to the eggs and spat on them.
Zhao Yi didn't know what to say to express his inner feelings, and he decided to ask questions enthusiastically.
"Worm queen, what did you just do?"
"It is an egg, born with no genetic sequence, and needs to be genetically chimeric by the mother or queen. And I've just chimeed a modified lurker sequence. Now it's just a matter of waiting for him to hatch. ”
No way? Say improve is improve?
Zhao Yi's eyes widened with curiosity, looking at the insect eggs that were so motionless, and he was full of thoughts for a while.
The queen worm uses psionic energy to cut and chimere genes in specific internal organs, and the Queen of Blades is also able to cut and chime. The hypertrophic abdomen of the queen of worms can indicate that there is a hypertrophic organ in her body that provides a place for gene regulation, and the slender and attractive Queen of Blades does not look like she has an organ in her body that regulates genes full-time.
In a sense, Queen of Blades is the brain of the swarm, and the Mother Worm was developed, each guiding the evolution of the insects, as well as warfare - perhaps Queen of Blades doesn't need internal organs to be genetically regulated? For example, spread out your hands, and then use your psionic energy to feel the genetic sequence placed on your hand, and then cut and chime and change?
The eggs began to surge, but Zhao Yici didn't have the heart to observe the results of the lurker after the adjustment, he came to the fallen lurker and wiped a trace of blood on it with his hand.
The spiritual energy began to surge, attached to it, and Zhao Yi, who closed his eyes tightly, began to challenge himself.
In the past, what Zhao Yi needed to do was to constantly amplify his spiritual energy in order to control enough alien insect units to affect the battle situation on a macro scale. And now, Zhao Yi's psionic energy needs to be gathered on a nano-sized gene sequence.
Zhao Yi felt a hint of tiredness just by sensing the turbidity of the blood and the smoothness of the surface.
It's like a teenager who usually likes to look down at his mobile phone and has a myopia of 500 degrees and is suddenly asked to stare at a point on a target 100 meters away.
Torture.
After a while, Zhao Yi, who wanted to give up a little, rubbed his temples. Looking back at the situation around him, the lurker hadn't hatched yet, but the eggs were several laps larger.
On the other hand, the queen was not satisfied with the concoction of a lurker, she found more eggs, and then injected different tuned gene sequences into the eggs - anyway, the experiment on the insect did not need funds, all it needed was biomass. Even if a failed creation is made, it is possible to throw it into the splitting pond for biomass recycling.
It takes a long time for the lurkers to hatch, and it is impossible to hatch in more than ten minutes. In that case, why not take the opportunity to get a few more experiments?
Of course, this was the explanation that Zhao Yi thought of for the worm, and after resting for a while, Zhao Yi continued to immerse himself in the perception of the genetic sequence by the psychic energy.
..........
Zhao Yi looked at the pink lurkers, yellow lurkers, red lurkers, and blue lurkers in front of him, and his heart was abrupt.
These are all the results of the queen's hard work to adjust the genetic sequence of the lurker, but Zhao Yi doesn't understand why the queen does this at all.
Satisfy the girlish heart of the queen of worms?
Zhao Yi, who almost blew up his head in order to perceive the gene sequence, wanted to sleep and rest a little, tired for his own heart.
"By the way, why do you want to make the lurkers colorful?" Before leaving, Zhao Yi still decided to ask the queen worm.
"It's all about confusing the enemy's eyes. Mother worm. The insect queen explained solemnly: "The creatures on many planets exhibit this characteristic of bewitching color. They either use brilliant colors or grow strange patterns on their bodies to scare away predators. I get inspiration from them. I was thinking that a colorful lurker might scare an enemy who had never seen such a creature before and not dare to attack. ”
"Forget it, queen worm, it's useless." Zhao Yi endured the idea of complaining: "Just destroy them, the change of color is useless - the human spider thunder and the mechanical sentinels of the star spirit do not rely on color to distinguish." ”
"Yes." Without even retorting, the queen commanded the colorful lurkers to jump into the splitting pool.
She's done the best she can improve. In the absence of Abbather's presence. During the time of the Brood War, the Lurkers had evolved to the point where there was no way to evolve - the carapace was thick enough to withstand a lot of damage, but it didn't hinder the ability to burrow into the ground. Powerful muscles are capable of slamming a row of bone spurs from beneath the ground, dealing straight line damage - ensuring a combination of single damage and all damage.
The Lurker is an outstanding artifact of the Alien Worm, but its elimination is the fault of the times, not its own problem.
Even an alien insect creature like the Queen of Worms, which specializes in genetic modification, can't attack the lurkers from other angles, and Zhao Yi, a person who is still hobbling around the appearance of the genetic sequence, naturally can't do better. So he continued to happily inject dizime on his body.
Not to mention the macroscopic control ability of psionic energy manipulating alien insects, nor the microscopic control ability to manipulate genetic sequences, the total amount of psionic energy alone is also what Zhao Yi lacks.
