The first generation of fungus blankets is simply a photosynthetizing organism that can multiply indefinitely. It needs to be cleaned from time to time, otherwise it will cause serious ecological damage and provide less efficiency, especially when it grows on the land, which is collected and cleaned.

For the second-generation blanket, Thalen's requirement was to be controllable and able to deliver resources.

Referring to the fungus blanket tumor of the Zerg in StarCraft, with the fungus blanket tumor as the core, the coverage area of the bacterial blanket is limited, and as for how to deliver it, blood vessels are a good reference option.

In addition to controlling the coverage of the blanket, the tumor also has the effect of concentrating the organic matter obtained by photosynthesis of the blanket and extending the root system to the ground to absorb water. The most important point is that the bacterial blanket tumors are connected to each other by a main pipe, and they have a heart-like function that allows those organic matter to flow through the ducts. The swarms, on the other hand, can be replenished by the Sponge Tumor.

Bacterial blanket tumors are usually buried under the bacterial blanket, have a simple neural structure, can sense the command of the swarm, and when the Zerg need to be resupplied, they stretch out multiple tentacles-like things, secreting the food that has been decomposed inside and is easy to digest quickly, providing supplies for the swarm in need of food.

In this way, the damage to the ecology can be effectively avoided and the swarm can be replenished quickly. After all, there is no effective way for Tylen to improve the material utilization of the swarm. Not every bug has its own antimatter reactor-like stomach.

Although the main structure of the Thalen Project's bacterial blanket tumor is simple, the coding of the gene strand is complex. At least not with a pat on the head.

In the past more than fifty days and nights, the newborn hive tyrant Sekander has completed the cocoon and can be taught, about the teaching of the basics, Taryn threw this pot to Fast at the beginning, after all, Taryn doesn't know how to instill memory, so he can only educate slowly.

However, according to Taryn's perception of Fast's emotions, the other party apparently had a mood called irritability.

"So, education is such a thing......" Taryn sighed, and continued to work on the fungus blanket and the observation of the insects.

On the Bug-Man side, thanks to the adoption of the new Bug Scout, Taryn was finally able to probe the daily lives of these Bug-Men up close, and began to understand each other's language.

They express things like expressions through the movement of their antennae, and they have some ghost-like characters, which, according to Tyran's analysis, should belong to hieroglyphs or something. In terms of their language, Taryn can still only understand some simple roars, especially in some states, which are obviously the same tone and audio language, but express completely different meanings, and it took Taryn a long time to come to the conclusion that the other party's language should match a pheromone released by itself, and also match the antennae on the head...... Damn, their language is so troublesome.

From what the Scouts have seen, it seems that the Zermen own more than one city, and that Tyron has seen other Zermen coming here.

How powerful the Zermen are at the moment, a small nest of scouts is not enough, and Tyron needs to know more.

Tylen decided to let the power of this outpost's small nest expand into the territory of the Zerg, and a large number of new Bugs went to the Zermen's sphere of influence, hid in the Zermen's sphere of influence, established a small nest, and secretly observed the Bugmen, and found out the size of the Zermen's power.

In fact, Tylen has no special hostility towards the worms, if he can maintain this state of no further contact between the two sides, Tylen will not deliberately provoke a fight, after all, if you can avoid losses as much as possible, there is no need to take the initiative to cause trouble and fight to the death with others.

After Sekkende's basic education was completed, Taryn gave the order: "Sekent, you lead some of the swarms and a bug queen to the north and collect genetic samples for me." ”

"Yes, Juggernaut." Sekkender said.

"Fast, pick out the strongest soldiers in the swarm and put them under the command of Sekend."

"Understood, Juggernaut." Fast quickly picked out the strongest soldiers and handed over the command.

The north is the opposite direction to the Zerg City, and Taryn intends to have Sekendre explore new areas and see if he can try his luck with creatures that can attack from a distance.

Taryn then proceeded to work on the bacterial tumor.

Three years later.

The second generation of bacterial blanket tumors has been successfully studied, and in addition to Tyran's original planned function, Tylen has added a simple tactile system and visual system to achieve the purpose of monitoring the organisms located on the bacterial blanket.

The eyes of the fungus blanket tumor are small and difficult to detect at first glance, and at the same time, the eyes can be retracted under the fungus blanket and hidden. Rely on a tactile perception system to determine the enemy's location.

The emergence of the second-generation bacterial blanket can already replace the role of the first-generation bacterial blanket, and after Taryn ordered the workers to clean the first-generation bacterial blanket, he began to lay the second-generation bacterial blanket tumor in a planned manner.

The photosynthesis capacity of the second-generation bacterial blanket is not much higher than that of the first-generation bacterial blanket, but it is much more dilative and efficacious than the first-generation bacterial blanket, and there is no uncontrollable side effects of the first-generation bacterial blanket.

Located in the center of the fungus blanket, the nest of the swarm, a large mouth-like organ is located in the nest. This thing is one with the blanket, it is able to break down food, transform it into a state that can be easily digested by the colony, and store it for replenishment by the sponge tumor when needed. The main body of this thing is located underground, and it is a behemoth, after all, this thing has to store the food collected by the Zerg to facilitate the replenishment of the Zerg.

Taryn uses the fungus blanket to connect all the nests in the area, allowing for the transfer of resources to each other. Closer together.

While Taryn was doing these things, news came from the scouts that there seemed to be a civil war within the Zergs, and that they were fighting each other.

At the same time, news came from Sekkender on the other side that they had found traces of the nezumi.

"A civil war broke out among the wormmen...... Traces of the nezumi...... "Taryn suddenly found that it seemed that his territory was sandwiched between the territory of the worms and the nezumi? Could it be that the insect people who came here last time were preparing to attack the nezumi? Then he was cut off halfway by himself, and only one of them escaped back......

"The nezumi over there...... Don't act rashly, Sekend, there's no need to clash with the nezumi, just take care of your own work of collecting genetic samples. The relationship with the insect people is not at the level of friendliness, and if we fight with the rat people again, then we will be attacked from both sides. Taryn said, "As for the bugmen...... Fast, you and I go and watch. ”
