Chapter 369: Colonial Plan
'Boom! ’
In a roaring explosion, a pure white tree fell to the ground.
"The nearby plants have been cleared, and now we are starting to return." The aircraft circled the sky and flew in the direction of the base.
"Now the problem has been solved." At this time, in the command headquarters, the commander listened to the report of the bombing mission: "There are a total of fifty trees in the jungle, and now they have all been blown up, although it is not ruled out that other forests may also have this kind of creature, but they are all far away, and they should not affect us." ”
"And recently, Search 3 has found the wreckage of the crashed strikers in Operation Jungle, which shows that they crashed because the engine was involved in a large number of small objects, and according to investigations, there are occasional storms with large amounts of hard objects in the jungle."
The Commander turned and looked at a void behind it, "It can be said that their crash has nothing to do with those fluff balls...... Now we will continue to investigate the 'super-uniform species' in the jungle. ”
"......" Standing behind the commander was the 'scholar'.
It was one of the void people who had always maintained caution about this qiē, and it did not say anything, but turned away.
After exiting the room, it looked at the large group of people who were busy around it, looked up at the flying machines everywhere in the sky, and then turned and walked towards a nearby building.
It was a habitable building, and when it opened the door, it immediately saw a virtual citizen sitting listlessly in it, unresponsive to its arrival.
And this sentence of the scholar made it raise its head: "You were the first to see the 'pom-pom'?" ”
“…… Be. ”
…………
"This time we're going to wipe out this woodland! An order has been given from above to prepare for the start of the colonization program! ”
Thinking that the pom-pom threat had been resolved, the vanity gathered at the edge of the jungle again. Under the cover of dozens of 'Howler' cannons behind him. Ten giant 'Diggers' are knocking down trees one by one. Turning up pieces of dirt reshapes the topography of the area.
"Colonization plans started so soon? It feels like there are still a lot of problems to be solved, and there are too many dangerous creatures here. ”
"It's because there are many dangerous creatures that we have to colonize them quickly, and plan these lands as ours, as long as we turn over their jungles, we can drive them away."
The guards of the Void Folk were on duty while chatting nearby, and what they were talking about. Lynn basically knows it, too.
That's what some of the people who have been infected with a special fungus know about it......
These fungi are called 'invisible fungi', and they are currently difficult to detect by the Void Folk, they will stick to the Void Folk's armor and follow them back to the base, and almost all of the Void Folk who ran out of the jungle were infected with this fungus.
The fungus sticks to their bodies when they occasionally take off their armor, and are able to move slowly before attaching to their auditory organs, slowly penetrating the auditory nerve, allowing Lynn to hear what the void can hear.
Because they don't cause harm, it's hard for them to realize they're being parasitized.
Recently, they have heard the main elements of the colonial plan. This content is still very interesting.
Recently, more and more things have been sent from the Void Base, and some of them are called 'cloning devices'......
Because the reproduction rate of the Void People is very slow. They can fight from pups to adults, and it takes about twenty-five years to grow, and they only give birth to one at a time, and the female void has little ability to reproduce on their own, and needs the help of a lot of equipment and medicine.
With such a troublesome breeding guide, it is difficult for them to increase their numbers quickly, so they have come up with a method of 'cloning'.
Somatic cells are mixed with enucleated germ cells to create an 'embryo'.
Zaitong guò uses a large number of drugs called 'hormones' to make this embryo grow rapidly, so as to create a large number of individuals, but the virtual people that grow from this embryo, because it is an abnormal growth in a transparent jar-like incubator, they are all very 'deformed', only one-third the size of ordinary virtual people, that is, more than one meter long, and the lifespan is only a few years, and at the same time, the intelligence is relatively low, but they can understand the orders of the virtual people, and they can also understand the language.
That's enough for a lot of uses, they plan to mass-produce these deformed clones to operate machines, build buildings, take over the entire place after eradicating the forest, and after a few years they're almost dead, they've built a city, and then bring in the real inhabitants from afar.
To put it simply, the Void People figured out this method to produce a large amount of labor to help them build colonial cities, and this kind of clone is similar to slaves, and it seems that the creatures that have developed to this level also like to use slaves, and they are very convenient slaves, because they are short-lived and small, and they don't have to worry about their protests and other problems.
It seems that there is a well-established plan, but in fact, it is the first time that the virtual people have used this method to colonize, and in the past, they only used these clones for drug research, and many virtual people expressed concern, but because it was ordered from above, they could not do anything.
They seem to be in a hurry, because many dangerous creatures have not been solved, or because there are too many dangerous creatures, they plan to 'take root' here directly and stabilize themselves.
Anyway...... Lynn felt like they were almost ready to leave.
"Report to the Commander!"
In the command room, a virtual citizen said: "A thousand kilometers away from here, the remote control machine has found a large number of biological groups.
"Biological swarms?" The commander said, "Is it a 'super-uniform species'?" ”
"Probably not, here's the footage that came back."
The stereoscopic image in front of the commander suddenly popped up, and in the image, you can see that there is a large group of creatures on the plain, and their forms are almost identical, and it can be seen that they should not be a 'super-uniform species'.
On top of that, they are very large, with a description of how tall they are at least five meters tall and about ten meters long, looking like silver hills, but with legs.
"They're coming our way, what to do, Commander?"
The commander said: "Scare them off with scare bombs." ”
"Commander!" Suddenly, a virtual citizen ran in at the entrance and said, "There is an abnormality in the jungle, and the remote control machine has found a large number of 'fluff balls' flying up in the depths of the jungle and floating towards this side!" ”
"What? Didn't they all blow up? ”
"Commander!" At this moment, another virtual citizen broke in and said, "There is a group of soldiers outside who have gone crazy! They shoot everywhere with weapons! ”
"Commander! The detected remote control machine crashed! ”
"......" (To be continued......)
