Volume 3 The End of the World Section 16 Kind

After drinking coffee, the iron slag returned to the cabin room. This room is only about six square meters, and the walls are made of steel sheets with rows of willow nails nailed to them. On the left side of the door is an iron shelf bed, and at the head of the bed is a single-door iron wardrobe. On the right is a narrow aisle, and at the end of the aisle is the shell of the ship with a round glass window. Through this window, you can see the undulating sea. Beneath the glass window was a small desk with a small lamp whose paint was about to fade.

The red comet rested right in the aisle, taking up almost all of the space. After the iron slag entered the room, he could only sit on the bed, and there was no place to turn around. In this regard, he has made an opinion, this room is too small. So the captain took him around, and found that his room was already the largest in the whole ship, and the rest of the rooms were two shelf beds, squeezed into four big men. This is already a luxurious VIP room. In desperation, he had no choice but to give in. Although he is the most powerful person on this ship, there is no reason to grab the captain's room with Zhao Linglong. If the current captain was Xia Yihan, he would have moved in a long time ago.

"Alice, analyze the meaning of 'stinger gene breeding', 'mutant gram/romon test', 'regenerative hormone study'."

The red comet's screen lit up, and the girl's mechanical synthesized sound was heard.

[Yes, my captain]

[Stinging worms, from the alpha plane, conjoined vertebrates, the lower part of the body resembles the tail of a snake, relying on the retraction of muscles to move in a meander, the upper body is four sickle-like legs, a pair of large scythes, a pair of small scythes, the large scythe is used for attacking, the small scythe is used for feeding and precision cutting, the creature has extremely complex mouthparts, can spray spikes with acidic mucus, and its attacks are penetrating and corrosive. Stingworms are oviparous organisms that reproduce very quickly when food is plentiful. Once all over the Central Continent, it was completely wiped out by humans once three years ago, and the number has been controlled]

[Gene cultivation, the use of biological tissue slices to cultivate, intercept gene fragments, and graft into the bodies of other organisms]

[Mutant Gram/Longti, the full name is Wormed Mutant Gram/Longti.] The world convention explicitly prohibits the study of the body of the human body. In the past decade, some scientists have decided that the insectized mutant does not belong to the category of human beings, based on the teachings of the Temple, and has begun to study the gram/romp body of the insectized mutant. Subsequently, the World Parliament reaffirmed that all research on gram/alongs containing human genes was prohibited.

[Regenital hormone, unknown word, unexplained]

"Explain the place name 'Iceland'." Iron Slag commanded.

[Iceland, a small island in the middle of the Black Sea with an area of about 110 square kilometers]

"The solution to seasickness." Iron Slag asked.

[Toot ......] The captain suddenly changed the subject, and none of Alice's three on-board computers reacted.

[Captain...... Honk...... Need to take antihistamines or anticholinergics. According to nautical practice, the captain's room will have such drugs on hand.]

"What about the no-pill plan?" Iron Slag was on a boat for the first time, and he was already feeling uncomfortable when he was on the deck just now, but he persevered and did not say a word. Going to the captain's room now to get medicine would expose his seasickness, and he would not allow him to be discovered when he was weak.

[Lie flat, fix your body, reduce shaking]

"Stay on your toes, I'll sleep for a while." After speaking, Iron Slag turned off the light and closed his eyes to recuperate. After a long time, his perception became clearer and clearer, and he only felt that the shaking of the river and the sea made his dizziness worse.

"Poof! Scold! Scold! Scold! Scold! Scold! ”

In the darkness, his instinctive whole body tightened, and with the sound of continuous breaking through the air, six blades rushed out! Sharp toes dug into the walls and iron sheets around him, holding him firmly in mid-air.

"It feels so much better." Iron Slag said to Alice.

[Captain, your insect transformation ability is very practical, the stratum corneum covering the whole body can greatly reduce the impact force, the knots can increase the flexibility of the body, and it can also be used as a cold weapon]

"Hmm." Iron slag answered, pulled back one of them, and slowly stretched it out in front of his eyes to take a closer look. I saw that the tip of the knotted foot was dark black, with the luster of crystals, and the side was as smooth as a mirror, which appeared extremely sharp. It is beige below the tip and is wrapped in layers of fine cuticles, which look very tough. His knuckle is more than two meters long, making it one of the shortest pairs in the middle, while the top and bottom pairs are both more than three meters long.

These six sharp knots are the "awakening ability" of iron slag.

In general, each insect has an innate ability, known as a "natural ability". And Iron Slag's natural ability is the "Talisman Carapace", whenever he encounters mortal danger, the carapace will instantly grow out and cover his whole body.

When he was fifteen years old, he suddenly awakened the second item ability, Blade Blade, and with the awakening of this ability, sharp spikes grew on his originally smooth carapace, so he changed his name to Blade Carapace.

When he returned to the Natasha laboratory, Iron Slag used genetic plunder to copy the genetic fragments of an insectized mutant, gaining a third ability, latent parasitism. Soon after, Iron Slag discovered that his third ability had been affected by the first and second abilities, and that something had changed. Compared to the protozous, the ant-like adult produced by the latent parasitism of iron slag has a hard carapace and sharp jointed feet, which is much stronger than the previous adult. It can be seen that the ability to insect each other will affect each other.

Thinking of this, Iron Slag summed up the current situation.

His bladed carapace, which gives the blade a tough cuticle; His blade is sharp, giving the sharp spikes of the carapace; His bladed carapace and bladed segment give the latent parasitic a hard carapace and slender segmented foot.

So, on the flip side, does latent parasitism also have an impact on the other two abilities? So far, though, he hasn't felt any changes.

"Alice, do you have any information in your database about the interaction between insect abilities?"

[Captain, the information is incomplete, and the source is unreliable, and the credibility is relatively low, which may mislead your judgment]

"It's okay, let's talk about it, I'll analyze it myself."

[Yes, my captain]

[According to the Templar's instructional book, "Notes on Hunting Demons", insect mutants have the ability to kill and plunder their own kind.] The targets of its predation are often rare abilities. In the insect mutant group, some of the basic abilities will cancel each other. For example, there is a contradiction between antifying muscles to secrete ATP to improve combat ability, and pump circuits to increase the number of blood vessels and reduce the volume of blood vessels to improve the body's control. Assuming that the wormed variant has both abilities, blood pressure will rise rapidly and blood flow faster when secreting ATP. At this time, the narrowed blood vessel cannot carry the pressure and blood flow, and the blood vessel wall bursts, causing damage or direct death.

[Rare abilities have a high level of stability, and are ...... of mutual predation between insect mutants]

"It's the worm, don't let me hear this disgusting word again!" Iron Slag shouted in a deep voice.

[Yes, my captain]

[Rare abilities have a high level of stability and are a primary target for Wormbreakers to plunder each other]

[According to the remnants of heretical organizations, some of the rare abilities do not affect each other, some are friendly with each other, and some are mutually exclusive]

[The above is the material recorded in the temple]

[There are no official records of the Worm's epic abilities and legendary abilities, only a few unofficial rumors, and it is said that all epic abilities have the meaning of "cocooning", and all legendary abilities have the meaning of "life"]

Hearing this, Iron Slag felt a panic in his chest. The Temple's cleansing of the insects was nothing short of outrageous. However, the Temple is the largest organization in the world, and no force can compete with it. As an insect, he only felt deep helplessness. The world is big, but there is no place for them.

Iron Slag sighed, put away his feet, and then went out the door, to the deck to breathe.

It was the middle of the night, the moon was hanging high in the sky, the pale moonlight was shining on the deck, and the cold sea breeze was howling by, and the windbreaker was hunting.

Iron Slag came to the edge of the boat, holding on to the fence with both hands, and staring at the calm sea. The sound of the waves in my ears was heard, wave after wave, smashing on the side of the boat. As time passed, his mood gradually calmed down. So many years have passed, and it's not for the sake of living. As for what the people in the temple think of the worm, what does it matter, just live it......

"Brother Tie, haven't you slept yet?"

Iron Slag turned around and saw Feng Yun holding a large wooden barrel and staggering over. When he arrived at the edge of the boat, Feng Yun struggled to lift the large wooden barrel, apparently trying to dump the kitchen waste into the sea. Iron slag casually helped down the wooden barrel, Feng Yun had help, and lifted the wooden barrel over the fence in one fell swoop, and it all fell with a "bang".

"Thank you." Feng Yun wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.

"Little things." Iron Slag grinned, perhaps because he was also an insect, and he suddenly had a sense of affection for this short and fat middle-aged man.

"Haven't you had dinner yet? I didn't see you coming over just now, do you want to go to the restaurant, I'll fry two dishes for you. ”

Tie Slag nodded, and went down to the restaurant with Feng Yun. The dining room is on the other side of the cabin, connected to the galley, and in the middle is a wooden table more than 20 meters long, and on both sides of the wooden table are fixed low stools.

"What do you want to eat? Sea fish or beef, potatoes or tomatoes, Chinese cabbage or not? Feng Yun asked.

"Whatever, whatever you eat, you can do it." Iron Slag replied.

"Okay, you sit and wait, I'll prepare." After speaking, Feng Yun walked into the kitchen and muttered while cooking, "The table you are sitting on is made by me, and the wood was transported back from the snowy night ice field." It was a really exciting time, and on the way back, guess what we encountered? Snow Bear! There are still two snow bears, one male and one female, so fierce that they stand up as high as a hill. Oh, it's not a hill, it's not that big, but it's quite tall anyway, several meters high. I thought, it's broken, I'm going to die here. But there is no way, I can only fight! I turned my heart sideways, picked up the big wooden stake, which is the table you made now, and roared! Guess what happened? ”

"You ran away." Iron Slag replied lightly.

"No, the snow bear ran away." Feng Yun lifted the curtain in the kitchen and said with a probe.

"Impossible." Iron Slag spread his hands and said.

"Because...... There was an avalanche. ”
