Chapter 421: Independent Genome
When Naga's genetic information is continuously released, zero's gene sequence automatically appears empty, waiting for new genes to be added. At this time, it only took 2 seconds for the brain to calculate at full speed, and the best evolutionary scheme was obtained. Zero closed his eyes and navigated the schemes in the shijie of consciousness. Most of these schemes are fused with Naga's genes to cause abnormalities in some parts of the body.
For example, the bones of the whole body have evolved into the laminated structure of the Naga, so that the density of the bones has been increased by an order of magnitude, and the gaps between the laminates are filled and connected with a substance similar to bone glue, so that the compression of the zero bone is greatly improved, and the evolution of independent biological cells can transform cells into life that can act alone. These beings are disposable, and their form is roughly similar to that of the demon worms produced in the Naga's body, but they are not aggressive, but they are capable of penetrating detective behavior, and then there is the evolution of the magic eye organ on Zero's body, which has the function of detection, tracking, and locking.
In general, all evolution is based on the genetic information of the naga. The selected evolution plan not only adopts the most powerful abilities in the Naga gene, but also combines the conditions of zero itself to obtain the best direction of evolution. But in this way, it means that Zero will say goodbye to human identity completely. After all, such an evolution cannot be reversed, whether it is the change of bones or the generation of new organs, it is permanent.
Zero not only asked himself, can he still be considered a human being if he chooses to evolve like this?
However, among these schemes, there is another one that has attracted Zero's attention.
This scheme suggests that Zero store genes such as naga as separate genomes, and once this genome is called, Zero's body will undergo some degree of change. However, when you stop using it, you will be restored. This is very close to the ability of the mutant domain, except that the ability of the mutant domain can only choose a specific series of life genes, and the independent genome can theoretically use different life forms without restriction as long as the conditions allow.
Of course, in practice it is not possible.
First, to form an independent genome, Zero must use evolutionary points to generate separate stores in its own gene sequence. Each reservoir must consume 100 evolution points, and each additional storage area increases by a factor of 1.5. That's a terrifying number, and with three separate storage areas, zero would cost 475 evolution points. Evolution points are such a precious existence, and who can have the luxury of using hundreds of points at will.
Second, there are not many lives that have the value to convert it into a separate genome. And it is even more difficult to get their complete genetic information, and it is already rare for Zero to be able to obtain Naga's genetic information, if it were not for the destruction of Naga's wisdom center in the body at that time, and Zero is extremely close. Otherwise, if he had killed the incomplete version of the planetary weapon outside of his body, Zero would have noticed that Naga would have separated a crumb carrier containing all of his genetic information from his intelligence center at the same time as he collapsed.
However, when all the information is converted into a separate genome, although it can avoid zero permanent mutations, and can be switched to the corresponding life form, all abilities are inevitably weakened. However, Zero still chose this option, although the ability of independent genomes is proportionally weakened, but compared to the above schemes, which tend to evolve in a specific direction, independent genomes will retain the more comprehensive ability of their own life.
What's more, Zero doesn't want to enter the field of vision of others as a monster.
After Zero chose an independent genome of his own volition, he first consumed 100 evolution points to evolve an independent storage area in the gene sequence. Following the Naga's genetic information entered this separate storage area in some mysterious way, and adjusted accordingly. The storage area is both inside and outside of the zero gene sequence, like a plug-in. When there is no need, as long as you activate this plugin, you can get the corresponding effect.
The generation of the storage area, the storage and adjustment of the Naga genetic information, took a total of nearly an hour. When he opened his eyes, Beonliz was looking at him curiously.
"What's wrong? Is there anything dirty on my face?" Zero wondered.
Beonise shook her head and said, "It's not dirty, but what did you just do?" I was sleeping soundly when I suddenly felt your body temperature rise. So I woke up, and then I saw that the muscles all over your body were shaking, like there were a lot of worms in it, and I was really afraid that something would happen to you. ”
As she spoke, her concern became clear. Zero felt a warm feeling in his heart, and couldn't help but reach out and pat Beonliz's head and say, "I'm fine." ”
Beonise pretended to be angry and took Zero's hand and said, "Don't slap me on the head, I'm not a child." ”
With that, she bit the edge of Zero's palm again. Of course, this bite only left a faint trace on Zero's hand. Zero Haha smiled, stood up and said, "I'll show you something, but you'll have to keep it a secret for me." You know, I prefer to keep a low profile. ”
Beonise looked at Zero, who was barely dressed, and asked curiously, "What do you want me to see?"
She suddenly thought of something, blushed and said, "You won't be"
Seeing her eyes fall on her [file] department, she suddenly said angrily: "Where do you want to go." ”
Shaking his head, Zero activated the newly formed independent genome. Immediately, the surface of Zero's body began to appear grayish-white diamond-shaped cuticles. They quickly covered 99% of Zero's body, leaving almost no eye on it. An eye is then generated in the stratum corneum of the zero chest and both shoulders to provide a multi-directional perspective.
Black bones are formed on the chest, back, shoulders, forearms, and legs. They wrap around these body parts, and the surface of the bones even has fine lines, as if they are the bones of some kind of living being, exuding an eerie aura.
At this time, the bone on the back of the forearm of Zero and the two hands was still proliferating and bulging, and three small holes were opened at the front end. Then, sharp bone spurs emerged from Zero's oval-shaped shoulder armor, the sides of his back, and the stomach of his knees. After completing this zuihou change, the image of Zero Fu exudes the smell of violence and gore.
Naga exoskeleton dressing, done!
"What is this?" Beonlise watched in amazement as Zero gave birth to a set of biological armor in the air, and she even reached out to stroke the sharp bone spurs on Zero's body, accidentally scratching her fingers.
Zero gently sucked BeonLis' injured finger and said softly, "This is my secret weapon, through the use of independent genomes, allowing me to use some powerful life liliang." What you see now is the image of the monster that was wreaking havoc in the city of Pydes. ”
When Zero completes all the changes in the body, the brain also gives all the information about the Naga's independent genome. Among them, the exoskeleton takes 2.3 seconds to dress. Its gray cuticle is bio-armored, capable of channeling and dispersing the impact of energetic properties. The hardness of the black bone stomach is equivalent to that of alloy armor, and its role is naturally to defend against physical shocks.
This is the defense system of the exoskeleton armor, followed by the three eyeballs, which provide a zero-directional view and add wave energy detection. With zero as the origin, it is possible to detect environmental structures within a radius of 1,000 meters. Zuihou is a weapon system, which is mainly a zero-handed biological bone spur gun. Capable of firing three sharp bone spurs 10 cm long at the same time, with the splashing effect of Naga bone spurs exploding after hitting a target. However, in terms of power, it is much smaller than that of Naga, and the only advantage is that it can strafe quickly, which can achieve the effect of unspaced dense strikes.
In general, the independent genome is an all-round improvement of the user's ability. However, the effect of the bonus is naturally not as great as the permanent evolution in a single direction. But for Zero, he doesn't want to turn himself into a monster until he's tired of living as a human. Even if that kind of life is more powerful than the current body.
After giving Beonise an overview of what an independent genome is, Zero began to use the exoskeleton to dress up with three eyeballs to detect the current environment. One thought, three eyes began to roll in different directions. At the same time, the invisible oscillating detection waves fanned out, and where they passed, there was little matter to stop their penetration. At the same time, the oscillating wave energy will construct the passing geographical environment in the form of a diorama in the consciousness of zero.
Soon, Zero discovered that there was a regular passage in the rock face about 100 meters above him. There were as many as five as far as he could detect, and from the diorama they looked diagonally into the ground, connecting some square spaces. Zero was surprised, both the passage and the space were very orderly and neat, and it could not be natural molding, but artificial excavation.
So behind this mountain wall, there is a building such as an underground base?
If there is an underground base, then there will naturally be an exit to the surface. No matter how you look at it, it's much easier than climbing up a crack from the ground. When Zero turned to tell Beonlise the good news, he noticed that the water level of the river seemed to have risen slightly. Originally, the shallow beach where they were located was about ten square meters, and it was two meters from the water's edge.
But now, the ground where they stood was less than five square meters, and the ground water was pouring up to Beonlis's feet. The water level was still rising, and after a few seconds it was no longer above Beonlise's heels. A series of bubbles floated in the water, and the bubbles continued to spread in the direction of the two of them.
Suddenly, a black shadow shot out of the water, and it swooped down on Beonlis's pink back. Zero jerked over Beonliz and shot three bone spurs right in the middle of the black shadow with the bone gun in his right hand. The shadow was a piranha-tailed creature, but the size of a pug and six legs. The head is huge, the mouth is full of sharp teeth, and a row of white Sensen's teeth are jagged. It is not difficult to imagine that the bite force of this strange fish may be able to bite off people's hands and feet.
The bone spur accurately hit the strange fish, and the Qi root suddenly exploded after it was gone. The strange fish was immediately wrenched into a mess by the bone chips that burst in its body, and more than a dozen sharp bone fragments popped out of the surface of its body. The strange fish immediately fell to the ground, fluttered a few times, and then disappeared. Its body was still in the shallows, and Zero kicked it down. I saw more bubbles rise from the place where the strange fish fell into the water, and then the water seemed to boil, and countless mutant fish rushed to gather, and in an instant they ate the corpses of their kind.
After eating the corpses of their kind, the strange fish also tore each other apart. For a time, the river was covered with blood, but there were no corpses, because once they were bitten to death, the corpses would soon be eaten by their own kind. Zero frowned at these super piranhas that appeared out of nowhere, and only vaguely guessed that they should have something to do with the rise in the water level. At this time, many strange fish have already discovered the existence of Zero and Beonlis, so more than 100 of these super piranhas swam over in the river.
Zero asked Beonrith to press as close to the rock wall as she could, while the two-handed bone gun fired repeatedly. One bone after another shot away, forming two gray torrents, killing the fish that swam close to the shallows, only to turn their stomachs. Zero has to say that the power of the bone gun is not bad. It not only has the characteristics of high-speed shooting of miniature submachine guns, but also has explosive performance, which further improves the lethality.
Under the torrent of bone spurs strafing back and forth, in less than 1 minute, nearly 100 strange fish had turned over the corpses on the water. However, the situation is not optimistic, and the carcasses and blood stains of the strange fish not only attract other people of the same kind. And the water level is constantly rising, and now it is almost to zero knee. When the water level completely submerges them, not to mention Beonlise in the water, even zero will not be able to defeat these overlords in the water.
From a distance, almost the entire river was boiling. According to zero rough estimates, there are thousands of super piranhas in this river. Quantity and quality are always relative, and it's better to say if it's just a thousand or so of these strange fish. But when the number multiplies, or even more, Zero will have to die under the sharp teeth of these strange fish.
He looked up, glanced above the rock wall, and after another round of strafing into the water, Zero stepped back to Beonlis' side and said, "We need to get out of here." Get on my back, we have to climb up!"
With a single thought, Zero retracts the bone spurs on the exoskeleton armor. Beonlise didn't ask much, and hurriedly stuck it on Zero's back. Zero grabbed the rock wall with both hands, and the rock wall, which was still hard before, was now caught by Zero casually, but the five fingers that were as zero as mud and sand were deeply inserted into the rock formation. It's not a change in the rock formation, it's that the liliang at zero has become bigger than before.
Zero can feel that when a certain part of his body exerts force, the diamond-shaped cuticle of that part will shrink. Makes the arrangement of the stratum corneum more compact and provides zero to a more massive liliang. Zero learns from this that Naga's exoskeleton outfit is not as simple as the data provided to him by the brain. It should have other abilities and functions waiting to be discovered, otherwise it would lose the value of the hundred evolution points consumed by the Naga gene vector and storage area.
In this way, Zero carried Beonlise on his back like a big gecko and kept climbing up the rock wall. The water level below was no longer waist-high before them, and in the water, more and more strange fish gathered at the feet of the two of them. The strange fish opened its sharp teeth, as if waiting for the two to fall down for a good meal.
Unfortunately, Zero had already found the entrance to one of the regular passages he had detected earlier, which was almost a man tall and dark inside. But at this time, Zero couldn't care much, and drilled into the passage with Beonise on his back. In a relatively flat spot at the entrance, Zero put Beonise down. I was just about to inform Beon-Liz that the passage was tilting downward, but the relieved head of the house sat on the ground and leaned forward, and suddenly slid into the darkness below.
"Bess!" Zero shouted, as he slid down the darkness toward the passageway.
The voices of the two continued to echo along the passage, and somewhere in the darkness, a pair of eyes suddenly opened!
