They first listed all kinds of unscientific possibilities, and then inferred and analyzed them step by step, and came to a conclusion, that is, parasites must have a process of reproduction and expansion, and such a process must have a source.

For example, the famous nematode, which is not an animal, but a general term for all animals in the class Nematomorpha. They need water to reproduce, but praying mantis obviously won't go out into the water when it's fine. For this reason, when the nematode larvae mature, they will use a protein to manipulate the host's nervous system, causing the host to involuntarily approach the water source, drown themselves, and then burrow out of the host's body and into the water to reproduce.

INTERVIEWER What about the parasitic species that can control the brains of humans and animals, and how do they reproduce?

After studying and analyzing the carcasses of roe deer and the parasites in the brain, some people deduce that these parasites may not have the developed reproductive ability.

"The more complex the ability to control the host, and the nature of the host's body to be modified, which means that this parasitic mode and link are very complex, I think they should have a special means of reproduction, which is to invade the human body from the outside, and their individuals may not have the ability to reproduce."

Someone was the first to make such a suggestion, and on several parasitic canine carcasses that they accidentally picked up, they got more clues.

"On the corpses of dogs, there is some kind of gap in their skull, which is a cavity that has been violently penetrated, and I am afraid that the parasitic species has invaded the host's body through a very violent parasitic method."

After dissecting multiple samples, many researchers agreed with this hypothesis, which also indicates that this parasitic organism has a complex parasitic pathway.

However, this is also common in nature, and many parasites also have extremely complex life histories.

For example, in the schistosomiasis that once swept through southern China, the larvae need to develop into cercariae in the snail before they can infect the human body.

Regardless of which link goes wrong, schistosomiasis cannot complete their life cycle, so the epidemic of schistosomiasis can be suppressed by eliminating snails.

The reason why parasites have evolved this strange and complex life history is to ensure that a large number of parasites will not cohabit in the same host, causing the death of the host and the inability to complete the continuation of their own race.

This is the essence of biological evolution, and even if this parasitic organism is extremely special, many people think that this should not change.

"The speculation of the nest exists, and in order for parasites to reproduce, there must be a source, and since they are organisms with complex parasitic conditions, they may indeed need a dominant condition."

This statement was agreed by about two-thirds of the researchers at the 703 base, and Ji Yundong was also one of them, and he had such thoughts since he was transferred.

"It seems that the ghost old sea is the final decisive battle field, and those monsters originate from this demon mountain......"

Looking at the map displayed by the satellite, Li Ping couldn't help but say something like this.

He remembered the video he had taken earlier about this mountain, and in the hearts of the older generation of local residents, the ghost old sea was a demon mountain, a forbidden place.

When this area was being developed, a large number of people ran over to prevent the construction team from entering the mountain, which caused a great sensation, and Li Ping still had a little impression of the public security problems in this kind of city.

And now, he recalls the video of the mountain shot by the drone, where the dark green mountains appear in the night, and a strange atmosphere emerges.

He thought, maybe those old people were right, this is indeed a demon mountain.

"When are you going to do it, no, I think you should have started it a long time ago, why are you still waiting until now......"

Li Ping was very puzzled about this, although it was only less than a week, but with his understanding of this young man, he felt that he had a deep intention to do things.

Obviously, he was about to start his march to the mountain, but he held back the momentum and was vaguely waiting for something.

"No hurry, I have a hunch that this mountain is not simple, those parasites are very renounding, they are very good at hiding, if it weren't for an accidental wildfire, we wouldn't have a chance to find them."

"And the current situation is also a little unexpected, in fact, in the face of our encirclement and interception, the best choice for parasites is to sneak into the mountains, constantly play guerrilla warfare with us, and find opportunities to break through the blockade, using their unique camouflage, trying to hide in the surrounding counties, cities and towns, but they did not do so, what is this for?"

"I have a hunch that this 'mountain' should not be taken lightly, but should be dealt with carefully, I will not give 'it' any chance, and then, I will completely crush 'it' in one go."

Out of a human cautious heart, a primitive ancestor's perception of an unknown threat, Ji Yundong made the wisest choice.

He did not choose to attack, but further mobilized troops, and while he waited, he simply transferred three artillery battalions from the nearby military district to surround the mountain from three sides.

It is also equipped with an armored brigade, a mountain brigade, a mechanized infantry division.

Many large vehicles could not be driven in this mountainous environment at all, so Ji Yundong simply called a special line and asked the army aviation brigade of a certain group army to hang them directly by helicopter.

A large number of troops, manpower, and material resources have been transported to this area in one go, and the deployment has been completed as quickly as possible.

In addition to these forces, the outer side of the mountain is defended by the armed police, the public security special police, and various security units.

The perimeter of Taitan Reservoir has been shrouded in a huge net.

Unmanned aerial vehicles, helicopters and other air alert and reconnaissance units conduct uninterrupted patrols from day to night.

After seventy-two hours of arming, Ji Yundong was finally able to decide that this mountain had been surrounded by him like an iron bucket.

"I've got enough of the cards, and I'm finally ready to go."

Until this moment, Ji Yundong felt that he had a sense of confidence in his heart.

That's right, I'm going to make a move.

No matter what you are, this time, there is only one thing I want to do, and that is to destroy "you" from beginning to end with a violent rain of steel, flames, and sulfur.

The Huaxia New Regiment, which had already completed electronic operations a few years ago, began an all-out onslaught under an order transmitted by the commander remotely from a distance.

155mm self-propelled howitzers, 155mm self-propelled howitzers, 60mm mortars, vehicle-mounted grenade launchers, and all kinds of heavy firepower equipment equipped with different vehicles began to pour out their own exclusive firepower in waves.

In the area centered on the Devil's Old Sea, countless cannon chambers began to emit their own roar of steel might, and the kinetic energy generated by the combustion of powerful gunpowder, the chemical energy that mankind is most proud of, will send devastating cannonballs to the designated area in a precise trajectory.
