These parasites seem to have a higher class in the biological system created by the God of darkness. Even after their death, the residual breath still makes other alien larvae dare not approach. Zero picked up the corpse of the strange insect, took the team to the corridor not far away, then tore up the corpse of the larva with a dagger, and smeared the coagulated plasma on the floor of the corridor to form a red line.
Before the smell of insect blood disappears, it should be enough to prevent the harassment of those alien larvae. After that, I walk and look at the insect corpse on my hand. The structure of this parasite is very simple. They have no common organs, such as mouth or eyes. It looks like a piece of meat with three rows of feet, but under its abdomen, when it is pressed a little, there are many small holes on the edge, which will spit out some nerve like biological fibers. Perhaps it is by these things that the host is connected to control their actions.
In the body, there is a brain like structure. It's just that the brain occupies two-thirds of the body area. In the meantime, the brain groove is deep, which shows that these guys have extraordinary wisdom. This can be seen from the fact that the girl of the shadow clan used human language to deceive them just now. From various situations, after occupying the host, these alien insects also inherited their ability and knowledge.
But how does the alien enter the host?
When I first thought of this problem, zero suddenly had a slight body shock and stopped.
"What's the matter?" King walked beside him and found something strange.
Zero looked at the hand of the insects, said: "I know how the seeds and holy medicine is going on."
We found a clean place in the corridor and the team took a rest. By the way, zero said: "the two parasitic shadow clansmen I met just now may be the later manifestation of becoming" beasts. "
Moni had transplanted seeds herself, and she had the deepest experience. "You mean that after you become a beast, you will eventually generate that disgusting thing in your brain?" she said
"I can't be wrong." Zero said: "the seed is the creation of the God of darkness. After transplanting it, like ordinary people, it immediately possesses the power of those with high-level abilities. Although this kind of power cannot be promoted, it is undeniable that the seed itself is a very powerful living organ. It can make people have the ability, even if dawn city has started research in this area, and has entered the research and development stage of directional ability, but it is far from the seed. "
"But are seeds really as simple as living organs? No, I think it's the egg of a different insect, and the elixir is the accelerant. It makes the eggs wake up from the slumber and have self-consciousness. When the eggs hatch, it is also the beginning of the beast like host. Remember the transmitter cells, which are the first stage of egg hatching Zero sink voice: "these things are to transform the host, so that the host's body can become a parasite environment. In the end, the larvae of the alien insects will enter the brain through some way, grow up and finally dominate the host
"The two shadow clansmen should be examples after taking the holy medicine."
Moni trembled and said with a smile, "don't worry, I've cleaned up those disseminator cells, and no insects will get into your head."
With his assurance, the girl was obviously relieved.
"But in a sense. The shadow clan is also the creation of the dark god. They should have a certain understanding of seeds and holy medicine. In this case, why should we take these things to the surface and give them to all ethnic groups? " Jin frowned.
"Don't you think it's a bit like collecting data? And then there are some of the alien species that we met, some of which carry the genes of the terrestrial alien species. The seeds and the elixir are just like instruments for collecting biological data on the surface. These insects must have some natural connection with the God of darkness. " Zero whispered: "from this point of view, maybe the black owl let me into Titan hall is not good. And do the shadow people, like they say, simply migrate to the surface? I'm sure they left the ground just to collect data for the dark god. "
"But that forward base, there are traces of those battles..." Leah's implication is that if the shadow people are ordered by the God of darkness, why they will be pursued and killed by other species.
Zero looked at the humanity: "perhaps our previous inference is wrong, not all the alien creatures are suddenly out of the control of the dark god. At least, the shadow people are still under the control of the dark god. In this way, it's not normal to be attacked by other species? "
"It seems that things have become more complicated. If so, the shadow clan must have a plan for decades of dormancy on the surface. If everything was ordered by the God of darkness, would the purpose of the God of darkness be... "Jin said, pausing for a moment, and then said," it wants to build an army with advanced wisdom, instead of these wild species in the underground? "
"This may not be surprising. Judging from its current behavior, it can be concluded that it is what I am looking for. After all, aggression is their essence. " Zero stood up and said, "in a word, whether it's the core of darkness or the God of darkness. We all have to destroy it. Its existence is a threat to natural life. "On this point, people have no opinion. Along the way, the alien life we saw was full of aggression and aggressiveness. They can be said to be the natural enemies of life, and the dark god who created them is certainly not a good thing. The earth's surface is chaotic enough. To get such things out of the ground, the world will become more chaotic.
The next trip was quite smooth. The corridor extended to the ground without encountering other heterogeneous interception. Soon, the corridor had come to an end. Leave the exit and enter a hall. Surrounded by natural pillars supporting the dome, there are numerous oval shaped cocoons, but these cocoons have been hardened. I'm afraid that even if there's something in it, it's dead. They're arranged in a circle. On the ground, there are numerous meat pipes, which connect the base of the cocoon and seem to be the transmission pipes of nutrients.
At first glance, this is a biological weapons factory, which has the capacity of large-scale and assembly line production. But the factory seems to have been closed, at least in this open hall can not feel the breath of life. The shell of many cocoons is broken, and some larvae of different species are stuck in the gap or lying on the ground. They should feel the sudden stop of nutrient supply and leave the cocoon out of the instinct of survival.
But if they can't reach the standard of survival, they can only slide into the abyss of death.
In the center of the hall, there is a body as high as a hill. It's a huge alien, and it should play the role of producer. It looks like some kind of insect with a carapace, some like a Velociraptor, but with wings. The wings of the insect are sticking to the ground in tatters, unable to lift them up again. There is a female genital organ in the tail of the alien. Not far from the organ on the ground, there is a cocoon lying on the ground.
There's a spherical gap in the head of the alien. The crustacean on the edge is fragmented. Jump to the top and look inside. There is a space about half a meter in diameter. It should have been a vessel for something. Now, it's obvious that it's been moved.
What would that be? Who will be the person to transfer it? These are mysteries.
"Again..."
A light call, let the person on giant alien zero turn round. It's Leah. She squatted down, put her hands on her eyebrows and said, "I hear that call again. It's loud this time. It's like... It's like next to me... "
So the people looked around, but the hall was empty, and there was no sign of other life activities except for them. This call came and went quickly, not as long as last time, but became clearer. Leah was sweating and pointed in one direction with her trembling fingers: "she's over there..."
Leia was pointing in the direction of a thick wall. The walls are simple and grey, and there is nothing special about them. When you tap with your fingers, you can hardly make any sound. It indicates that the rock behind the wall is solid, or the wall is thick enough. However, there is no way to think about it. He stepped back a few steps, then made a big push forward, then shot out with one punch, took several pieces of shadow, and then overlapped them on the wall. All of a sudden, the wall cracked soundlessly, and then collapsed with a piece of mud powder. Behind the wall, it's still hard rock, like Leah pointing in the wrong direction.
But zero believed Leah's feeling, he hit again with a fist, this time with a heavy warhead. The light golden light ball wrapped with the fist front cracked the wall again and again, and occasionally burst out an implosion damage, which made the gap of the wall expand a lot. In this way, after 40 consecutive blows, the walls were blasted through with a roar. This wall is as thick as 50 cm. If it wasn't for zero determination bombardment, someone else might have given up halfway.
Behind the gap in the wall is a deep hall. There is something in the hall that emits a faint blue light. You can see the pillars that several people embrace, as well as some patterns engraved on the ground and walls. More importantly, as soon as the wall blows open, a strong energy breath will come. It's like a balloon that suddenly leaks air. The intensity of energy exceeds the imagination of zero.
After the energy breath of the hall behind the wall is discharged, zero takes the lead in drilling in. As soon as you go in, you will launch an energy defense field to prevent you from being attacked. Then, Leah and Alice and others came in one after another. The hall was spacious, with six thick stone pillars supporting the dome. In the middle of the hall stands a three meter high cocoon.
Hundreds of dark red meat tubes are laid on the base of the cocoon, which are scattered to other corners of the hall along the lines on the ground, and buried deep in the ground. Occasionally there is a light red glow from the bottom of a meat tube, which is transmitted to the mat through the pipes and then into a mass of light bubbles rising from the bottom of the cocoon. Red light like this appears from time to time, which is like extracting energy from the earth's core to supply the cocoon.
There is a shadow in the cocoon.
In fact, the wall of the cocoon is very thin, which seems to be a layer of meat film. It can be seen that the cocoon is carrying a liquid similar to bio based liquid, in which the energy of incomparable strength is dissipated. Judging from the equivalent of energy, it is equivalent to all the energy of the 11th order strong, even up to the 12th order.But it doesn't matter. What matters is the figure in the cocoon. There is no doubt that it is the ultimate beneficiary of all this. From the shape of the figure, it seems to be a girl. She curled up, a few dark thick lines connected her with the cocoon, long hair floating in the cocoon, forming a sea grass like shadow.
It's just that the wall clothes of the meat cocoon cover her appearance, and people outside can't see her clearly.
"That's her." Leah stepped back, nodded and said, "she's calling me. She begged me to let her out of here."
Zero touched the wall clothes, said: "this should not be difficult."
"But who is she? Is it the God of darkness? Or is she the host of the dark god? " Zero channel.
"None of them!"
Suddenly a voice rang out.
Zero and other people turned around at the same time, a person who should never be here, but came in through the gap in the wall. That person leisurely way: "that is my younger sister, wind dance."
"Why are you here... Elder black owl?" Asked zero.
The black owl didn't answer, but behind him, someone came in one after another. These are the shadow clan, old and young, men and women, a total of more than ten people. The important thing is that everyone's breath is full of fury, like a beast that can hurt people at any time. As long as you look at it, you will know that these people are the hosts of those alien insects.
But they were respectful to the black owl, as if the black owl were their master. To be exact, it's the owner of the alien insect.
"It seems that you have a lot of secrets, elder black owl." Zero indifferent way.
"Who has no secret. I do. Don't you? Zero. "
"Of course I have, but my secret is not as dirty as you make your own compatriots into hosts of monsters!" Zero cooling channel.
"Devil bug? host? It seems you know a lot. To be honest, I'm surprised. You should have fallen into the wall of the abyss. "
Zero sneer: "it's a pity that we didn't have the chance to follow the route you gave us."
"It seems so." The black owl nodded his head and said, "one thing needs to be corrected. Those babies are not monsters. The dark god calls them dominators."
"Dominator..." zero looked at him and said, "you can control these things?"
"No, to be exact, the God of darkness only gave me permission not to be attacked by him. In other words, I'm free to go in and out of here. "
Zero head: "I see, you said before. The so-called intruder into Titan hall is actually you. So, trying to save your people or something is nonsense. "
"It's not all lies." Looking at the figure in the cocoon, the black owl's eyes softened: "at least, I still have people to save. Of course, she is the only one I want to save. "
It seems that this secret has been hidden in his heart for a long time. The black owl is not in a hurry to do anything, but said: "our father is the first patriarch of the shadow clan. Twenty years after I was born, my sister also came to this world. At that time, she was young and weak, just like a flower that would wither at any time. Yes, I told a lot of lies, but one thing I didn't lie to you. The birth rate of our shadow clan is pitifully low. Every newborn baby is the hope of the clan, and they will get the most careful care. "
"Unfortunately, when my mother was pregnant with the wind dance, she was infected with a disease. It's a ferocious virus, and my mother died after I gave birth to the underdog. However, the terrible thing is that the virus will be inherited through genes. At the age of three, Fengwu began to show symptoms. By the time she was five, she almost died. It was my father who used his own authority and mobilized a lot of resources to save her life. But Fengwu still can't see any hope. Even if she does her best, she will live another ten years. "
"When Fengwu was 14 years old, Xueqi launched an attack on our home. My father stood up and shouldered the responsibility of fighting the enemy in the front line for his own use of the materials of the whole family. In the end, Xueqi was defeated, but my father died with a general of Xueqi at that time. When he was carried to the Hui nationality, he still had a breath. His father's wish was to let Fengwu continue to live. " The black owl's face gradually twisted: "however, these damned bitches, they don't allow me to continue to use the drugs in the clan for wind dance. Even if I become the patriarch, I still can't change their decision. "
"Kefengwu is my only relative in the world. I can't see the hope of my offspring's birth. At least, I want to keep her!"
Zero looked back at the cocoon: "so you brought her back?"
"Yes, we were born here. The God of darkness is our Creator, and I believe it must have a way to keep the wind dance alive. So I came here with the wind dance, killed everything that wanted to stop me, and finally arrived here. " The owl pointed out: "see that big guy? Yes, it is the God of darkness. No, to be exact, it is also the host of the dark god. The God of darkness has created a suitable body for himself, but obviously Fengwu is more suitable for it. ""So it came up with a deal, a deal I couldn't refuse." The black owl said calmly: "it can make the wind dance live, live forever. The price is for me to take the seed and the elixir out of the earth and give it to those who need it. "
"You mean, the seeds come from you?" No surprise.
The black owl said haughtily, "who do you think brought the seed out. When you come here, you should also know how big the risk is. Only strong men like you and me can kill directly. Do you expect this waste to travel through the entire underground space to Titan hall? "
"But also because of these, our shadow clan has been protected by other clans, and my prestige has been rapidly promoted in the clan. Then, Fengwu stays here quietly for treatment. The God of darkness informed me that Fengwu would recover soon. But it needs more gene fragments, preferably from our shadow family, so it will be easier to repair the genes of wind dance. " The black owl patted one of the shadow clan elders in the face: "so I gave them to be the most loyal servants of the dark god. Originally, this is also our responsibility. "
Hearing this, I can understand the whole story. The complexity of the matter is far beyond his imagination.
