Chapter 1029: Pheromones
After analyzing the living fragments of the chamber several times, Leo was unable to find any new clues inside, so he shifted the object of analysis to the liquid.
Originally, Leo thought that these liquids were very special and complex, so he would analyze the composition of the liquid after the living fragments of the cabin, but the results of the analysis surprised him a little, because he found that the composition of these liquids was not complicated, and it should be a nutrient solution extracted from the body of a biological high-energy substance.
In fact, he is also very familiar with this nutrient solution, because after every battle, cyborgs who have suffered similar fatal injuries need to soak in this nutrient solution to repair the damage of their bodies, and the only function of this nutrient solution is to stimulate the body's self-healing or other basic skills, so that the creatures who use this nutrient solution can obtain some kind of physical improvement in a short period of time.
It's just that he still hasn't figured out what the final effect of this nutrient solution is after use, because the formula of this kind of nutrient solution is slightly different, and the effect is completely different, some nutrient solutions are to repair soft tissue damage in the body, some nutrient solutions are to repair broken bones and nerves, and some nutrient solutions can even repair damaged brain cells.
The only thing he was sure of at the moment was that this nutrient solution was specially created for the living creatures of this chamber, because for the human body, the biological energy contained in this nutrient solution was a little too thick, almost like poison.
The nutrient solution he took from the ship was not very much before, and after a few experiments, it was almost used up, and he went to the metal ship of the Kingdom of England again, but unfortunately the nutrient solution in the living compartment on the ship had also been consumed, and the living compartment that had lost the nutrient solution seemed to be in hibernation.
This discovery also led Leo to confirm that there was a certain inevitable connection between the nutrient solution, the living chamber, and the ship's ability to pass through the gray fog sea.
It's just a little strange for Leo, because if these two living chambers are really related to the fact that ships can pass through the Grey Mist Sea, then they should be strict about guarding this secret, after all, it is related to whether the Kingdom of England can hold supremacy at sea while the Grey Fog has not dissipated.
But the fact is that the defense of the metal ship is very lax, so lax that not only Leo enters the metal ship as if he is entering his own castle, but even other spies and spies who have rushed from all over the Velonon continent are drilling in and out of the metal ship as if they are visiting their own back garden.
Leo only went to the metal ship twice, and encountered at least seven people from different forces who infiltrated the metal ship to find the secret of the ship's passage through the gray fog sea, and the entire metal ship was like a sieve without defense, and even the guards on the ship needed to infiltrate the discord between the forces on the ship, causing conflicts, only to find that someone had infiltrated the ship.
This lax state of defense almost made Leo suspect that he had deduced the wrong direction, and the two very abrupt wooden living chambers had nothing to do with the ship's ability to pass through the Gray Mist, and the ship's ability to pass through the Gray Mist was actually due to some kind of extraordinary object worn by Sean Donald and other high-ranking officials on the ship.
However, this idea was quickly overturned by Leo, who was still convinced that his reasoning was correct, and decided to do some experiments with the nutrient solution and living fragments of the chamber on hand.
Although Leo did not have a lot of this special nutrient solution on hand, only a small test tube, and he didn't know what the formula of this nutrient solution was, so he couldn't make a new nutrient solution, but this didn't bother him, with a little nutrient solution as the original base, he had a way to increase the amount of this nutrient solution on hand through the supplement method commonly used by the Earth Federation medical soldiers.
Although in every battle of the front-line army of the Earth Federation, the medics will try their best to carry a sufficient amount of medical supplies, but often as the battle deepens, the supply line is broken, and the replenishment of medical supplies is far lower than the consumption, so the medics have to use all the materials they can use locally to increase the medical supplies on hand.
The supplement method of medical soldiers is a special method of supplementing various types of nutrient solution, which only requires the minimum content of a nutrient solution reagent on hand, and the nutrient solution reagent can be increased by hundreds of times through this supplementation method, until the basic composition of this reagent is changed because of the combined supplemental solution.
On the battlefield, the raw materials used by the medic to make the replenishment liquid are countless corpses of all kinds on the battlefield, Leo's current conditions naturally do not use this kind of raw material that is extremely evil in the eyes of anyone, he took some useful materials from Sylvia's warehouse, and then made some replenishment in his laboratory, successfully replenishing the total amount of the special nutrient solution on hand.
After that, he tried to soak the living fragments of the chamber in the nutrient solution, feeling every trace of change after the living fragments absorbed the nutrient solution.
At first, after the living fragments absorbed a large amount of nutrient solution, there were no noteworthy changes, but after the absorption of the nutrient solution reached a certain amount, some sarcoma-like variants began to appear on the surface of the living fragments, because the living fragments themselves were not large, so these sarcomas looked more like some meat bumps.
Not long after the sarcoma formed, the sarcoma began to dry up, decay, and become a layer of skin that hung on the living fragments, and then merged into the epidermis of the living fragments, turning into an almost realistic wooden texture, and even the interior was similar to wood.
Just as the sarcoma skin capsule completely turned into a wooden epidermis, Leo felt that this living fragment was emitting a stream of pheromones, which were similar to the pheromones produced by some creatures in the universe in order to demarcate territory and compete for reproductive rights, all of which were emitting some kind of signal outward.
After discovering this clue, Leo told Sylvia of his discovery, and in order to learn more about the details of the pheromone, the two of them left the castle and went to a relatively secluded place on the outskirts to reuse the nutrient solution to cultivate living fragments.
The scene that Leo had seen before appeared in front of the two of them again, and Leo's spiritual network and psychic vision also recorded every detail of the changes in the living fragments, and also used the universal recorder to capture the biological information waves generated when pheromones were emitted.
Although Sylvia on the side did not grasp every change of this living fragment in all directions like Leo, she sensed a more intuitive content when the living fragment produced pheromones.
"Warning! This is a kind of warning. Sylvia said suddenly.
Leo turned his head to look at Sylvia suspiciously.
Sylvia explained in more detail: "Just now the Abyss Demon Dragon bloodline in my body received a warning, and this warning was directly transmitted to my mind, and I could feel that the warning should be issued by a very powerful being, and I also instinctively felt that if it was not necessary, I should not provoke the source of this warning." ”
"Pheromones, the warning you got should have come from the pheromones made by this living fragment. Leo quickly found the reason, and said with a smile: "It seems that this is the reason why the ship was able to pass through the Gray Mist Sea, create the illusion of a powerful existence, and force away the monsters hidden in the Gray Mist." ”
"It seems risky to do so. Sylvia frowned and said, "If you encounter something more powerful, this warning will turn into a fluke. ”
"Impossible. Leo rejected Sylvia's opinion, looked at the analysis report of the bio-information waves generated by pheromones by the universal recorder in his hand, and said: "This pheromone is very peculiar, it creates an illusion that any creature that perceives pheromones will have an illusion that a more powerful being is approaching than itself, and that it cannot conflict with it." ”
The reason why the universal recorder will get the results so quickly is that there are exactly several similar biological waves in the comparison database of pheromone biological waves on the universal recorder, and some creatures in the universe will specially create this kind of illusion to avoid danger, so that the actually extremely weak ontology can survive and reproduce in the cruel cosmic environment.
"I see, it's amazing. Sylvia heard such a thing for the first time, and her face showed a new look, and then she looked at Leo with some confusion, and said, "You should be more sensitive than me, why can't you feel it at all?"
"Because this pheromone is ineffective for me. Leo replied flatly, but there was still a hint of doubt in his eyes.
In the universe, pheromone biowave is the most commonly used means of attack and defense for creatures on some planets, which caused a lot of trouble when the Earth Federation opened up colonized planets.
After the riot, the Earth Federation also realized that cyborgs did not completely lose the emotions and desires of normal people as they thought, and that these emotions and desires were only hidden in the brain and could be stimulated by pheromones and other means.
This discovery is definitely not a good thing for the Earth Federation, because the reason why cyborgs can be popularized and used to replace normal humans in various dangerous jobs and tasks is mainly because cyborgs have no emotions and can faithfully carry out any orders, and even make them commit suicide.
But now it has been discovered that cyborgs actually have emotions, and this emotion can still be aroused, which makes the high-level of the Earth Federation wonder if one day all cyborgs will gain human emotions and launch a military coup to overthrow the human notice.
Although there is a fear of cyborgs, the Earth Federation does not intend to abandon all cyborgs, because the Earth Federation has become accustomed to the extremely demanding labor and combat power of cyborgs, and cyborgs have become an indispensable part of the Earth Federation, so the Earth Federation government can only greatly increase the control devices of cyborgs, and also cut off all the organs that cyborgs can perceive pheromones, so that cyborgs have completely lost the ability to perceive pheromone biowaves.
This is also the reason why Leo is confused, in his previous life, as a cyborg warrior, he naturally gave up the ability to perceive pheromone biowaves, but now he has not undergone similar surgery, so he should be able to perceive everything Sylvia perceives at that time.
But in fact, he didn't perceive any biowave warnings, only the pheromones themselves, which either means that the organ removal surgery is not as simple as he thought, just surgery, and even the soul has been affected, or it is possible that there is something wrong with the organ in his body that perceives pheromones.
Compared with the latter speculation, Leo thinks that the former soul influence hypothesis may be more reliable, because there is not only one organ that designs pheromones, but hundreds, most of which are neuronal cells, and some other organs are also separate sensory organs.
Just as Leo and Sylvia were finding out why the ships of the Kingdom of England were able to pass through the Grey Mist, a loud, piercing sound suddenly came from the Grey Mist on the sea in the distance.
The sound was so loud that it instantly covered the entire port of Randall and its surroundings, and everyone was frightened by the loud sound, and they all looked towards the sea from which the sound came.
Immediately afterward, they saw an astonishing scene, only to see a vague figure so large that half of its body had submerged into the clouds in the sky that it appeared in the gray mist, this figure tried to get out of the gray mist, but was blocked by some force, and finally let out a roar full of rage, and then gradually disappeared into the gray mist.
Although all this happened very suddenly, the process was relatively long, and everyone who saw this scene was very clear about the purpose of the appearance of the huge figure in the gray mist, which also exacerbated the inexplicable panic caused by the huge figure.
After all, before that, the people of Randall knew that there were some monsters in the gray mist, and those who ventured into the gray fog would become food for those monsters, but no matter how terrifying the gray fog monsters were, the vast majority of people almost thought that those monsters did not have any intelligence, and were more like some beasts.
But now that they knew that the monsters in the gray mist were not only as majestic as gods, but also possessed normal intelligence, what frightened them even more was that the monsters in the gray mist seemed to be planning to come out of the gray mist, which was definitely bad news.
"Is it because of us?" Sylvia asked Leo as she watched the huge figure disappear into the gray mist on the outskirts of Castle Black.
"Perhaps?" Leo didn't give an affirmative answer, but he was sure that the source of the living body used in this living cabin made with shamanic power was definitely not simple.
