Chapter 133: Spell-like organs
Although the expansion plan was set, the Dixing did not forget that there was still more work to be done inside the Dragon's Lair.
Of course, the single-threaded operation of letting go of something and focusing on another thing doesn't happen here.
The dead and wounded nest dragons, and those who were able to recover their complete corpses, were all hatched by [complete cloning].
According to the observation of the ground line, the magnitude of the impact of the integrity of the corpse on the retention of the label level after hatching is also different.
When the organizational structure corresponding to the label is defective, the impact on the label grade is greatest.
If it is completely missing, only the level of Lv1 will remain.
Specialized parts, such as tail paws and other specializations, a lv4 level tail paw specialization, if there is a coccyx remaining, all flesh disappears, and you can also retain the lv2 or even lv3 level.
Such a part can be stripped from the corpse and used as flesh and blood-
Since the beginning of the incubation method of dividing and using existing materials, there have been materials once, and for the local line, it is not a gap.
However, the resource consumption is also high.
Not only bones, but also hard structures such as scales and horns can achieve a similar effect.
In addition, if it is a relatively soft flesh and blood specialized organ, if it is defective, as long as it is not completely defective, then it can retain at least two levels or so.
However, when it comes to energy-related tags such as the wind element, the impact of the loss on the label level is very obvious, almost proportional.
For example, organs such as the air elemental are stored.
However, if it contains related words such as "vitality", the amount that can be retained is slightly higher.
What does it have to do with "resilience"?
The Ground Walk carefully studied the effects of different proportions of corpse integrity.
In addition, the higher the level of labeling, the lower the label grade is due to the integrity defect of the corresponding organs and tissues, and the closer it is to the same proportion.
In other words, the higher the level of the corpse, if it is a nest dragon of the earthly camp, in order to retain combat power, the more it should not be divided.
If it is not your own nest dragon, it is best to divide the carcass several times.
Then there is the issue of the preservation of corpses.
He can't convert all the corpses into materials, and he also needs to retain some energy for emergencies, so he can't convert corpses into materials immediately.
So, the discarding of the abandonment, the utilization of the utilization—
It's winter now, it's okay, just throw it outside and freeze it, if you want to leave any spare materials, just leave the bones.
The Nest Dragons have now shown a clear direction of specialization to be able to assign different jobs, rather than doing all the work together as before.
The mechanical dragons, whether they are the armored dragons evolved by the ankylosaurus or the bladed dragons evolved by the nodulars, are the main combat forces.
It's not enough to be completely out of production, only training and not producing.
In peacetime, when going out on expeditions in non-wartime, some mechanical dragons are left behind for production.
Tasks such as cutting down trees can be handed over to the Bladed Dragon, and tasks such as smashing rocks can be handled by the Armored Dragon.
Earthwalk's gaze swept over the armored dragon that had evolved into the dwarven rune energy tag, and watched as it smashed stones with its heavy tail pincers.
The dragonman is relatively small, and the flexible finger and claw structure is also more suitable for some delicate operations.
Repairs to the Dragon's Lair can be entrusted to them.
In addition, the company plans to build a dedicated unit responsible for the transportation of corpses and funeral ceremonies.
And the target chosen, in addition to the dragonman, is, of course, the anti-crow.
Looking at this group of bird dragons that evolved with the goal of anti-crow templates, and their body structure is more or less with the characteristics of crows, Di Xing directly chose to use them as funeral-related troops.
However, funeral-related does not mean that it is completely logistics.
In winter, the expansion of the dragon's nest will undoubtedly need to be carried out in a plundering manner.
Moreover, the earth line is also used to letting these bird dragons with the anti-crow and them to carry the expansion core and issue orders to the other nesting dragons, and he is not ready to re-plan, so be it.
Dragonmen are specialized auxiliary troops, and it's okay to be responsible for rituals and various hand-to-hand work in the dragon's nest, but their movement speed problems, command tasks such as heralds, etc., can't be handed over to them.
In the previous life, on the earth, weren't crows often associated with images such as death, although anti-crows and crows only looked alike, and they may be far apart in kinship, but it didn't matter.
Raise a group of feathered dragons, and let these guys who look a bit like crows act as a clarion call for war.
Bring war to the enemy and return the dead nest dragon to the dragon's nest.
Come to think of it, it's quite emotional?
If in the future, when the dragon's nest develops a large enough civilization and no longer interferes with itself, I wonder if the anti-crow will be deified in the direction of "war".
After planning the direction of the division of labor for the first dragon's nest and the feathered wyverns of the wyvern species, the earth line immediately ordered them to start executing.
He asked all the nest dragons who went out to hunt and brought back food to hand over the carcasses of their prey to the feather dragons.
In the future, after forming a habit, there is no need to give instructions every time.
Compared to the Feathered Wyverns, the Pterodactyls' production-related tasks during non-war time are hunting, and they hunt relatively large enemies.
Air-to-air combat is still relatively rare, and the Pterodactyl also has relatively strong combat effectiveness on the ground.
It's just that they are hiding in winter, and there are fewer and fewer prey, and in the case of high-intensity hunting, there are no big prey to hunt in this nearby area.
And, because they don't have feathers or the like to keep them warm, they go out to fight, and the cost is far greater than that of the Feathered Wyvern.
The Ground Walk allows most of the Pterodactyls to rest in the dragon's nest, and when they find large prey, they are sent out to hunt.
One by one, the winged wyverns were lying in the nest that the dragons had repaired for them, resting among the dry grass and dead branches, snorting from time to time.
Compared with the Feathered Wyvern and the Pterodactyl, the presence of the Lepidopterax is relatively weak-
They are relatively small, and in winter, it stands to reason that they can be responsible for reconnaissance missions to go out to investigate, and after discovering enemies and prey, they will come back to convey information.
But......
Similar to pterosaurs, they have a large number of specialized scales on their body surface, these exoskeleton structures, and their wings, which lack the ability to keep warm, are more prone to hypothermia, and they all gather in large numbers to rest in their nests at this time.
The task of reconnaissance was actually given to the feathered dragons.
To be honest, although the Feather Dragons are also important experimental subjects for him to explore the evolution route of flight, their presence in production activities is really weak.
What they can do, other nest dragons can do, and other wyverns can replace them.
The "advantage" of their "small size" has not been effective in this winter because of their lack of warmth.
Couldn't find a good spot for them......
Earthwalk's eyes opened and closed, and he turned his gaze to the Lepidopterans, who were also nesting among the hay and dead wood.
However, at this moment, he suddenly remembered something and set his eyes in the direction of the swamp.
Speaking of which, if he's not mistaken, those bloodthirsty elves seem to have the ability to catalyze the growth of plants?
Lepidopterans weren't insects, but it didn't seem like a problem to put them in charge of crop production and the like.
Among the nest dragons, there are not many nest dragons with herbivorous digestion ability.
Originally, the earth bank planned to let the dragon people hire a few "priests" who were specifically responsible for planting and production.
However, can it be changed and left to Lepidoptera?
Dixing remembered one more thing-
After the wings of the pterosaur are damaged, if the damaged area is not very large, it can still be restored, and there is no need to use evolution.
But on the Lepidoptera's side, it's more problematic.
Similar to the condition of insects, once damaged, it is basically impossible to repair itself.
Therefore, the evolutionary direction of the choice of the earth row is-
Enhanced durability.
This is the reason why the scales of Lepidopteran dragons go in the direction of hardening and specialization, just like beetles.
He even considered whether to make their scales specially elytra like beetles.
However, now that I think about it, I still rely too much on the experience of my past life.
Vitality, vitality.
If you have resilience, why not try to strengthen it?
Why can't Lepidoptera's wings repair themselves?
Originally, the company also planned to make a blood dragon species that developed in the direction of mollusks to study the labels related to the recovery of vitality and energy, but now, you can study it on the Lepidoptera's side first.
The vitality of those spirits can be used for self-repair, and it can also give birth to plants, why can't the vitality of the earth walk?
Try them with Lepidoptera.
The goal is to kill two birds with one stone, which can solve the food problem of herbivorous nest dragons, and do not have to worry too much about wing damage in the future.
And in order to do so, he needs to make another trip to the swamp.
Go get some elf corpse material back.
Try to get as many as you can.
Although he can breed production materials by giving other farmed animals evolutionary tags, he can't guarantee that an elven corpse he gets back will definitely have the label he wants.
And then there's ......
Transit.
It is conceivable that after that, no matter what, I will need to go back and forth to the swamp.
And to go from the dragon's nest here to the swamp, even if you let the flying dragon that can be accelerated by the wind element fly over, it will take four or five days to say the least.
He needed a temporary stopover in the desert.
At the same time, it is also an outpost -
Those undead creatures can't let go of the earth.
He didn't feel like he was "safe" anymore.
Well, it's decided.
After the Dragon's Nest is repaired, send out a group of Nest Dragons to expand to the east and north in search of more food.
The other part goes to the elves.
In addition to the elf materials, maybe you can solve the problem of food?
In the future, if the earth line is to return to the swamp, then, in addition to the undead creatures, the elven forces in the north will sooner or later become enemies.
Moreover, he hadn't forgotten that when he was in the swamp, he was almost killed by a few bloodthirsty elves.
At that time, he was still a small man with a body size of less than one meter.
And now.......
The earth walks up from the nest platform.
A row of spines evolved from the original dorsal sail spread all over the crest vertebrae, spreading from the tail paws supported by strong muscles to the neck, and the scales on the neck, which had become longer than before, were pushed open by the raised spines in the flesh until near the top of the head.
At the top of the head, the bright red, highly keratinized scales intertwine with these shortened dorsal batbones to form exaggerated appendages.
Thorny bones and jagged crests of thorns, like haphazard corpses, are wild and disorderly intertwined.
And at this moment, the blood on Di Xing's body could be moved.
The crown of thorns located on the top of the head also showed a crystalline structure like a jewel at this moment.
And the blood energy surging in the crown of thorns, which is far more active than other parts and has a strong sense of tyranny, also explains the meaning of its existence-
Spell-like Organ [Horn Crown Specialization: Blood Energy Rage]
And in the flow of blood energy, his back, which was attached to a large area of muscle, stretched out his body from the base of the wings of the inverted triangular outline, and stretched out a pair of huge wings, casting two huge shadows towards the nest, covering most of the nest.
And in his waist and abdomen, although not as powerful and thick as the first pair of wings, only two-thirds the size of the first pair of wings, but above the wings, like the strange crown, there is a rich wind element gathered here, and then, the blood covered by the wings can quickly wrap and be involved in the flesh and blood.
This pair of wings is also a pair of magic-like specialized organs-
【Aileron specialization: Efficient wind energy absorption】
There is no template, and it is not deliberately artificially evolved, but a structure formed by itself in the process of the evolution of wings in the earth.
