Chapter 115: The Future

Anyone has ever felt this way, when those who really pay for themselves leave themselves forever, they will consciously begin to regret that they spend so little time with them, and regret that they did not get along more harmoniously with them when they were alive.

…… Hogu regretted it.

Even if those who care about it are not people, but other creatures.

Hogu was only now really starting to think about what to do for these gatherers.

Based on this idea, with all the knowledge and predictions of Hogu's own, a huge vein is gradually extended, which sees a more far-reaching picture of the future of the gatherers, and at the same time sees the limits that shackle them.

After a long time, Huo Gu came back to his senses from his wandering thoughts.

"The situation of the gatherers is not optimistic, and my own ability is also limited......"

“…… However, it's too far to think about these things now, so let's help them solve the current problems first. ”

Huo Gu sank into his mind and regained control of the huge structure he had built in the first place.

Through the perspective, Huo Gu quickly saw the interior of the giant structure of the round platform, the dense and compact building complex, the crisscrossing roads and streets, and a large number of four-legged intelligent creatures wearing various strange costumes, coming and going through the streets.

On the outer side of the building complex, there are acres of plant forest, the color of the leaves is purple, the body of the tree has the lines of what appears to be pupils, and there are red and bright fruits growing on it.

"If it had been before, I might have been interested in researching it, but now ......"

The rhizomes within a radius of 20 kilometers from the giant structure grew and spread like crazy, and attacked the giant structure.

The rhizome crosses the alien cordon, triggering the alarm at the same time.

As with the previous shrill scream, the source of the sound came from the sky, and it was moving from far to near, and Hogu adjusted the perspective of the rhizome to see the situation in the sky.

Then I saw that the high-speed rotating shells were falling towards the rhizome, and they were already quite close, and there was no time to evade them.

A violent explosion followed, and the shrapnel completely pierced many rhizomes, and the rhizomes that competed in the center of the explosion directly became a sieve.

"Live-fire weapons?"

Huo Gu was a little surprised, in the wreckage of Starport before, Huo Gu did not find a single shell, or even a bullet, and thought that these aliens might have been completely eliminated or had not developed this kind of technology at all.

"But that won't save you."

The broken rhizomes are taken directly from the local materials, and all the elements that can be absorbed in the soil are absorbed, disassembled, combined, and incorporated, and the rhizomes heal rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and continue to spread and advance rapidly.

Later, as the density between the rhizomes increased, covering the entire surface, the two steps of dismantling and assembling were omitted, and the rhizomes directly absorbed the scattered rhizome remains of other rhizomes to make up for themselves, and the bombardment of the shells could no longer affect the rhizomes.

Beyond this barrier, there is an area where hot flames will erupt from the ground.

The rhizomes are inserted directly into the soil and advance through the dirt, bypassing these fire-breathing machines while dismembering and destroying them all.

Mighty rhizomes spread and grew into the area of responsibility of the turret.

However, this kind of thing is not as good as a cannonball, which can at least blow up the rhizome, and the bullet can make a small hole at most, and this damage to the rhizome can heal after only a short time.

A dense storm of bullets poured out, but this did not stop the already frantic rhizomes, at most it could only slightly delay the effect of the advance.

Inside the colony's headquarters, sirens echoed wave after wave.

"The flood tide has crossed the shelling zone!"

"The ground fire area has lost contact signal!"

"The cannon defense position has been breached!"

"The Flood Tide will break through all defenses at the time of the two home planets!"

The Commander of the Third Fleet was frightened and accompanied by a deep rage, he was now supposed to be a horde of monsters that had exterminated the colony, and was on his way back to his home planet to become a knight - the reality was too far from what he expected.

"Damn alien hap! If my fleet were still there, how could you be so rampant! And those damn meteorites, sooner or later, come at this time! ”

Just as the commander was venting his anger, his subordinates reported to him with a look of horror.

"Commander, a new flood tide has advanced to the slope of the metal body! Estimated time correction, half of the home planet will cross the top moat in a few hours and face our colony! ”

"Give me the 'pop' to activate and kill all these shreds!"

"Yes!"

The subtle fluctuations that had stopped the eternal severance had reappeared.

The rhizome that was advancing above the slope of the giant suddenly stopped, and the rhizome behind it was still growing, but the part in front of it no longer obeyed Hogu's orders.

"What's going on?"

Huogu, who did not believe in evil, issued an order again, and the result was the same.

"This is the mysterious power that Pertinence feels I can't defeat the invaders?"

The growth of the rhizome group is paused because the slope of the slope is too large, and the rhizome cannot be pushed forward by the growth of the rear alone, and the rhizome group is rolled up and piled up on the slope in the case of a good non-response at the first end.

Hogu recalls the information that Forever has told it, the data that has been exchanged for the lives of hundreds of millions of collectors.

"Vibration?"

Shifting to a microscopic level, Hogu used intracellular vision that it hadn't used for a long time, but failed, unable to see the cells that no longer followed its commands.

This condition is present in one possibility, cell death.

Hogu turned to look at the individual cells that were being attacked by subtle fluctuations, and the inside of the cells was shaking, which was indiscrete at the macro level, but at the micro level, it was equivalent to a 12-magnitude earthquake.

Under this vibration, the gene chain inside the cell begins to break down and disintegrate into the most basic amino acids, such as organelles and nuclei, and finally only the cell membrane can barely maintain its former appearance.

Soon, Hogu noticed that the 'field' that had caused the mass death of rhizome cells was spreading, and the area it had previously covered was being pushed back again.

In the blink of an eye, only the rhizomes, eleven kilometers from the outermost shelling area, were still alive.

Obviously, it failed, but Huo Gu didn't feel angry, it didn't intend to directly push the other party in this attack, wouldn't it be cheaper to deal with these invaders so simply?

Originally, Hogu thought so, leaving the invaders completely immersed in despair from the mind and even the body, and then died in complete shattering.

But now Hogu has a new idea.

Because the intruder had just attacked, Hogu realized that there was a problem that it had to face, and compared to this problem, the venting of anger now was nothing more than a stupid and unplanned move.

"I'm still too impulsive......"

"The future should be a priority over the past."
