Chapter 379: Chain Reaction

The lack of information on relevant aspects made Nesta's previous consciousness activities too violent and bold, which led to his body being shot by more than 100 laser guns after returning to the team;

The only good news in the meantime may be that the extremely efficient way of transmitting information of this race made him realize the specific reason for it.

To Nesta's surprise, the organization where the host body was located was able to capture the anomalies in its mind fluctuation state so sensitively at such a long distance, which directly triggered the occurrence of the previous situation.

When this is revealed, all Nesta can do is quickly dissolve her cell form and return the invading matter to a low molecular state, and then retract her thoughts to see if she can save this rather interesting host.

But it was clear that he had failed, and instead of spending money to confirm the new situation with the headquarters again, the criminal gang chose to kill the host body directly in the noise and excitement.

At the moment before he died, the carapace head who had already learned the truth really showed innocence and fear, he kept fighting back backwards, and scratched his body carapace up and down as if he was crazy, as if he wanted to find the unknown parasite and destroy it, and fantasized that he could save his life.

But to no avail, not only did Nesta disappear into his body, but his compatriots also did not give him more opportunities for profit.

After that, the firefight lasted only a short time, and the host body exploded and died under the action of high-energy rays, and there was no room for remedy, and the intrusive consciousness in its body also lost all its perceptual abilities, including vision, and the complementary and efficient means of intervention due to the sparseness of the material bearing;

Therefore, after completing some dispensable idle hand arrangements before, the consciousness belonging to Nesta has completely returned to silence, and there is no trace of its existence.

Another moment passed, with the entry of the mechanical warriors belonging to the base's central control system, everything that happened in the field finally settled, and when the three mechanical warriors who had no self-thinking entered, cleaned up, and left, the remaining thirty or so carapace long-brained people counted the extra gains in their elation;

The penalty paid is refunded due to the exemption clause, and the remaining previous expenditure is reimbursed retroactively in the discount, and subsequent purchases are also discounted;

In this way, coupled with the fact that there is now one less individual who needs to pay for it, they themselves have a little more income as a result, and naturally they have more time to indulge in pleasure

It was in this atmosphere that they breathed, cheered, and stayed for a while longer than planned, while the gases in the room and the rest of the matter that were constantly rising and falling in and out of their bodies continued to change in and out of their bodies, and then in the unknown something normal or abnormal.

~~~~~~~~~

For most organizations that have operated themselves within the river system to this day, there seems to be a set of purity monitoring tools that start with thinking;

The high-level casters, who have the ability to visualize internal disturbances, are likely to be able to crack these methods directly in the future, but they are now unable to do so due to constraints, and as a result, Nesta's subsequent attempts have failed.

Without a reasonable and legal identity, it will be difficult to move an inch here, even if it operates independently in the form of a pure molecular polymer, after the molecular weight exceeds a certain scale, it will cause the alarm of the monitoring system and usher in the close search of mechanical pickets;

So Nesta understood one thing, although it was not necessarily the technology they developed themselves, but the control of the material composition of the environment was high to a certain extent;

Within the region, all material aggregates that exceed a certain scale are under supervision, but any anomalies can be identified and accurately located by their monitoring system, and the lower limit of this 'anomaly calibration' is quite low.

For Nesta, there are only a few ways to circumvent such surveillance

First, reduce the molecular weight of its own polymer below the limited warning line, and the safest in the hostless state is the small molecule and low molecular structure;

Second, it is necessary to rely on the skin of foreign hosts to carry out operations, but in order to avoid arousing the vigilance of the various forces with their own means, it is also necessary to strictly limit the activity of consciousness.

In addition, the sensitivity of the thinking monitoring methods of different organizations is uneven, and in addition to the vast majority of the average cases, there are other extreme cases.

A very small number of hosts seem to have originated from a very powerful river system, and not only are their own mental purity strictly monitored in real time, but even the material composition of the body is in a state of complete clarity;

As a result, Nesta's intrusion immediately alerted them to their own equipment, which was then eliminated or dissociated by their own means.

Based on this, it can be simply speculated that ensuring the mental and material purity of members should be a matter of general importance, and that black, white, and gray organizations with weaknesses in this area will be destroyed in an endless stream of intrusions, or they may become a cover for the powerful forces of other parties, so as to passively have the relevant means of defense.

At the same time, after being carried out many probing operations, Nesta once caused the base to fall into a storm, and the unprecedented frequency of incursions caused the group to temporarily close the black market and conduct self-inspections, and even discussed the idea of moving the base and maintaining a state of internal and external isolation for a long time.

Although this idea of isolating the migration was not fully implemented out out of some self-confidence, the black market was actually shut down, the wormhole information record was erased, and a carpet search was carried out inside, but no substantial progress was made due to the prior precautions of the infiltrators, and the result was that the amoeba club was only affected by the fish pond due to the cell residue found in the early days, and was washed by the group with the intention of killing the wrong one.

In the end, although the phenomenon itself did not lead to any substantial harmful consequences, the group still chose to inform the dark world of its general beginnings and ends, so that everyone could collect more similar cases while taking more precautions, so that the specific cause and purpose of its occurrence could be thoroughly ascertained one day.

However, for countless years to come, for unknown reasons, there has never been a similar phenomenon of the same nature, thus making it a difficult case that hangs in the dark

But in fact, the group is still hiding some factors related to its own interests at the moment, and this factor is also the object of suspicion in their hearts.

For all this time, the only factor in the base that could be called a 'variable' seemed to be humans, and the subsequent intrusions made it somewhat suspicious;

However, the group, which is overconfident in its own technology, does not target the group of humans themselves, who are allowed to enter and exit even their memories, nor do they have a different mind about the new eggs that are blank for paper and have not yet been born consciously, but instead regard the general suzerain-like civilization of the distant foreign region as the object of attention, suspecting that this may be some residual means from the unknown extraterritorial power.

But after all, they are not the kind of benevolent forces that merciful to the heavens and the earth, and even if they do bring in foreign forces because of this, they may applaud and see it as an opportunity to rise, so this invasion, which seems to have ended in failure, has not stopped the group because of this unverifiable speculation;

They are still carefully cultivating eggs that are considered cash cows, but the internal and external isolation and other protective measures have become more perfect, and many of the blind spots that Nesta and others have gradually explored have been brought into custody, such as those pipes that need to be constantly introduced with nutrients.

As a result, the movement of the Nester Vanguard such as Nesta became extremely difficult, and most of the components could only fall into a state of great silence, and for a period of time afterward, they only engaged in acts of increasing their size.

~~~~~~~~

In the various levels of the base outside of the gestational compartment, the material components that Nesta had previously infiltrated had no source of energy due to the death of the host, and after dissipating the macromolecular structure for the sake of concealment, they fell into a semi-standby state with no power and no inscription properties;

At this time, they are passively riding the atmosphere and constantly floating and drifting in all directions, all the way from the oxygen zone to the methane zone, from the urban area to the natural ecological zone, from the sea of fire to the iceberg cliff;

In this constant undulating wandering, they occasionally descend to the ground to merge with other substances, and occasionally are recycled and reused as waste by the base.

Among them, the former is often able to maintain its self-concept of belonging to Nista, while the latter is very likely to be broken by the intervention of the group's technology, and thus lose all conceptual ties with Nista.

Occasionally, they will be inadvertently carried on the surface of the body by the intelligent beings who come and go, or even directly inhaled into the body, and then either leave again one day due to respiration, excretion, grooming, etc., or they are embedded in the chemical reaction and their macromolecular structure is transformed into a long-lasting material composition.

These molecules, which are subordinate to Nista, actually have two important intrinsic attributes that are rooted in them;

First, because being decomposed means the loss of 'self-attributes', the reactions that cause self-decomposition are often inert, and most natural factors that are not intense cannot break this inertia, so they have a high stability that far exceeds their homogeneous molecular structures.

Second, it reacts positively to the structure of its own relation, and when it becomes a member of a natural macromolecular structure, it releases a life force field with a very narrow range of influence, and then begins to assimilate the surrounding matter from the structure where it is located.

When there are a large number of foreign or transformed molecular structures in the same body, Nesta consciousness can re-enter it and perform more complex operations, the complexity of which depends on the 'Nesta content' in its body.

In the beginning, this is a very slow and unclear process, and although the total thread of Nesta can sense its position until the content reaches a certain level, it cannot actively influence it in any way, and can only wait quietly for them to complete the relatively long primitive accumulation stage.

Although the assimilation efficiency is extremely low in the absence of high polymerization and conscious initiative, Nesta wants to see what kind of results the assimilation carried out with the participation of the unconscious can bring him, so he chooses to let most of the outflow matter go rather than find a way to take it back or discard it directly;

But there are exceptions.

He simply gave up on those captured by the base's recovery system, and could easily complete this step by simply stripping them from the main thread structure of the meditation body, and that part of the matter had nothing to do with him, and all aspects of the properties returned to their natural state;

In addition, some of the outflow matter does not appear in the same area in a polymeric state, but it is also relatively concentrated in perception, and the distance between them can support Nesta to perform some limited operations.

Actually, this was not very strange, but part of the location made Nesta think, because the material that belonged to him was not in the base, nor in the territory of the Republic, but in an extremely remote unknown area.

A strong curiosity arose, and Nestana's main body in the far part of the headquarters immediately began to output full power, trying to use the limited influence that only existed at the moment due to the dispersion of matter, little by little, to transform them from the 'concentration' of the direction into the aggregation of matter.

As his actions progressed, in another relatively prosperous star field in the extreme distance, the interior of a spaceship that was continuing to sail in a state of transition underwent imperceptible changes

Although he can't actually feel the real situation of the scene, he can basically determine the reason why his own matter appears there through the association of the events before and after, and can guess the state of the environment from the more abstract sense of speed in his perception, and he also has an inseparable judgment on the true identity of the host.

But for the time being, what he can do is quite limited, and Nesta is only trying to control his own part of the matter, so that it can be gathered in one of the bodies as much as possible to increase the volume.

The intervention was carried out very reluctantly, and it took him a not too short time and no small amount of energy to complete the operation little by little, using the relatively closer connection between his own substances.

And when these substances finally gathered in the same body, Nesta, who had received the previous lesson, did not carry out too drastic operations, nor did they quickly assimilate the matter and generate cells, but transformed it into a perceptual inscription aggregate bit by bit, carefully scanning the surrounding situation, and uploading data inefficiently at an extremely slow speed like a high-frequency soldier, striving not to be perceived by the monitoring methods of its headquarters;

This data is slowly collected into the main thread, and then read, translated, and cached to form a continuous audio and video message.

As a result, the space in part of the interior of a spaceship was revealed to his mind, with more than thirty creatures with six limbs, long heads extending backwards, and armor slices overlapping around them;

Speculation was confirmed that this was indeed the stolen goods team that had previously shot one of his hosts, and that they were now carrying a shipload full of new slaves and the rest of their supplies, and seemed to have entered a state of leapfrogging.

Either way, it means that Nesta has managed to pass through the wormhole and into the real Great River System.
