Chapter Five Hundred and Fifty Six: Sea Fortress
The shadow dog and the nerubian turned into red blood cocoons at the moment, like two very cult Gothic sculptures.
The two pets Link are looking forward to, and the material compatibility is very high, but what they will look like after synthesis and what skills they have are all unknown, and unknown means attractive.
After the synthesis was completed, Link's eyes focused on the two remaining living creatures in the secret room, one was a sticky translucent object in the closed vat - the ooze; the other was the Queen of the Jumping Spider.
These two creatures were captured when Link went to the death quagmire before, and they have been kept in the secret room and have not had time to synthesize.
The rear of the jumping spider is not small, and it is kept in a closed nutrition chamber made of bulletproof glass, and food is fed every day.
The slime monsters are not too picky, and eat what they want. In the past, they sucked a lot of gray fog, and the translucent plastic body was covered in gray. Recently, the 'blood color' is visible to the naked eye, and they ate a lot of fresh meat. , and even remnants of undigested bones can be seen in the body. Of course, these bones were not idle, they were all used by the slime monster to form a unique 'skeleton', which vaguely turned into a spine, supporting the soft body.
I didn't synthesize it before, mainly because Link really didn't know what materials the creature like the ooze monster would use to synthesize it. Secondly, after this thing is synthesized, it is obviously not of much use.
Perhaps it was the advent of danger, which gave Link, who was originally lazy, a boost. Today, after making strategies at high speed, his brain is still very active, and even ideas and ideas are emerging one after another.
Link has a brilliant idea for the ooze monster.
The ooze itself is a collection of countless single-celled organisms. It does not have 'intelligence' itself. It relies on the cooperation between cells. However, because it has formed a unique structure, it is recognized as a living body by the system.
Similar in structure to the ooze monster, there is also the connective tissue of the aberrant fusion monster, which is more complex than the ooze monster at the cellular level, but because it cannot form a unique structure, the system recognizes it as a material.
One organism, one material, these constitute the two basic elements of synthesis.
The ability of the ooze monster is absorption and self-healing, and the effect of the connective tissue of the distortion fusion monster is reorganization, one order and the other disorder.
Link first looked at the degree of fit between the two, and found that his conjecture was indeed correct, and the fit rate was as high as 150%!
However, Link did not directly synthesize it because of the extremely high fit rate, because this synthesis also has a disadvantage.
The ooze monster and the aberrant fusion monster connective tissue are both synergistic effects between cells, which belong to the spontaneous behavior of cells.
Although it fits very well after synthesis, the action depends entirely on the interaction between cells, which is simply to act according to 'instinct'. But acting on instinct means keeping Link's orders, which is very dangerous...
So Link had to think of a way to make this intercellular behavior controllable. After thinking about it for a moment, Link was still going to ask Grace, a great leader in alchemical biology.
"Ahem, Grace, you haven't slept yet after this order?" Unexpectedly, Link just tried to make a call, and the other party answered the phone.
Grace's tone was flat: "I'm already drinking my morning tea."
"That's right, I have a question about alchemy that I want to ask. If the two raw materials for alchemy are both disordered organizations based on instinctive actions, what materials can be added to make this disordered behavior orderly and follow orders. ?"
After listening to Grace, she couldn't help but snorted: "You called me early in the morning and asked such a question, it's because the drunkard's intention is not drinking. But since you've already spoken, it's not easy for me to save face, I There are also some tentacles of the magic giant chapter, and I will send someone to deliver it to you later. Next time, if you want to say anything, just say it directly, you don't have to be so bewildering. "
Before Link could speak, Grace hung up the phone angrily.
Grace sat on the bench of the manor, with the lady sitting on her side, holding morning tea in her hand, and hummed to herself: "If you want the material in my hand, just say it directly, and ask questions around the corner..." Then she said softly. After clicking the bell on the coffee table next to her, a harpy fell from the sky and knelt down in front of Grace on one knee.
"My Lady Queen, what are your orders?"
"Send the remaining magic giant tentacles in my laboratory to Wind Howl Castle."
The eagle body buried his head even lower: "As ordered."
On the other side, Link is still mushy.
What's going on? I just asked a question, but I was complained by Grace, who said that the drunkard's intention is not drinking... Did she understand it wrong? And what do you do with the tentacles of the demonized giant chapter, why do you want this thing...
Suddenly, Link's body trembled.
"I understand!"
The best way to bring disordered cells into order is to connect them through neurons, which transmit signals and instructions, so that all cells can be mobilized to act in unison. And the organization with the highest density of neurons is the tentacles of the magic giant chapter. The tentacles of the magic giant chapter are not only rich in neurons, but also have a complete brain structure.
The magic giant chapter has a total of nine brains, which are distributed on the nine main tentacles. The nine brains have independent structural organization, but also cooperate with each other.
Link now finally understood what Grace meant.
I am an 'alchemist' who actually called me in the morning to ask such a mentally retarded question. It's no wonder that Grace was angry and felt that she was the material to deceive her.
But these are all trivial matters. After Link will do some research on the dark creatures of alien demons for her, this issue will be over. Even the king of banshees is a woman, as long as you send something you like and interest in, it will turn the page in a blink of an eye.
Soon, Link got the tentacles of the enchanted giant chapter sent by the harpies.
Ooze monster + distortion fusion monster connective tissue (green) + enchanted giant chapter tentacles (blue) =? (120% fit rate)
[Synthesis will consume 900 health points, whether to synthesize? whether]
[Blood cocoon incubation time: 1 hour]
Once the ooze is taken care of, there's only one last creature left, behind the restless jumping spider in the bulletproof glass.
The maximum ability of the jumping spider... Of course, it is very different from those small jumping spiders that sputter corrosive body fluids after self-destruction. Its maximum ability is not self-destruction, but reproduction.
Link's first thought was to enhance the self-destruction ability. Corrosive body fluids can corrode metals, and the effect is amazing. If the self-destruction effect is enhanced, the lethality will be amazing. But then Link thought of the silver ant queen. Although the spider queen is an arthropod, not an insect, the nature of the work of the two is the same, and they are both powerful weapons.
Just now, he had synthesized three pets in a row, and Link's materials were once again stretched thin.
The most important thing is that the jumping spider attribute must be satisfied, and it must be related to the violent soldier. This requirement is very strict.
Link glanced at the remaining materials, magic grass (purple), blood stone (purple), liquid metal (purple), storm scale (purple), dormant crystal (purple), fire element particles (blue), magic blood (blue), giant gene fluid (blue), painter's pencil (green), gene mutation potion (green), moon well water (green), giant radiation spider poison sac (white).
Link swept it over, and to be honest, the remaining materials did not inspire too many ideas and brain holes.
After thinking for a moment, Link decided to decide in the most old-fashioned way - try one by one.
If none of these materials are suitable, then the synthesis of the post-jumping spider will be postponed for the time being.
I thought that there would be no suitable materials in these materials, but when Link saw that the matching rate between the jumping spider and the liquid metal was as high as 200%, the whole person was stunned.
He really couldn't think of what effect the jumping spider with the sputum and self-explosive effects would combine with liquid metal would have. But this fit rate is too tempting. The jumping spider is a green quality, and a 200% fit rate means that an epic pet will definitely be generated. This wave is a plus one.
Since it is an epic pet, Link has to be synthesized no matter what.
Soon the liquid metal was absorbed by Link, and the jumping spider turned into a blood cocoon.
Link looked at the four blood cocoons in the secret room, and then left with satisfaction.
Although I don't know what the synthetic product is, at this juncture, under the premise of correct thinking, it can become Link's help.
After leaving the secret room, it was already past six o'clock.
Link went back to the office, turned on the computer, and waited for the aerial view of Esiah from the satellite controlled by Troy.
Time passed minute by minute, and soon arrived at Troy's agreed time.
Link saw a message pop up in the upper right corner of the screen and received a new picture.
Then Link clicked in and saw the satellite image of the sky above Essia.
As the huge picture gradually loaded, Link saw dark clouds hovering over Essia.
This dark cloud is only huge, not only covering the entire Essia, but also the surrounding sea area for hundreds of miles, completely encompassing it, making it completely impossible for people to see through it.
However, through this photo, Link still saw some clues.
In the usual dark cloudy weather, the clouds are thick but moving, so the edges of the clouds are diffused and scattered. Although there are a few weathers with clearly defined 'yin and yang days', they are always a few, and it will never be like this, as if a Zhang gray hijab, covered tightly.
From Link's point of view, this is somewhat of a conspiracy.
"Troy, how many days has the weather been like this in Esia?"
Soon, the Troy signal entered the Essia Radio News Media and other institutions, and the exact data was found: "Today is the 21st day."
twenty-one days.
Essia is located in the desert and is also adjacent to the coast. It is basically sunny and sunny throughout the year, and it is rare to encounter such a persistent cloudy day. Twenty-one cloudy days broke the record for the longest cloudy day in Essia.
Not normal, this is not normal!
"Troy, what other abnormal information can you collect in the area?"
Troy launched data from the satellite, then entered all aspects of Essia, began to filter and collect data information, and then sent it back to the underground data center in Weeping Valley by satellite. After large-scale calculations, it was finally reported to Link.
"Sorry, I collected the big data of Essia, except for continuous cloudy days, no abnormality was found."
If there is no abnormality, it means that there has not been a large-scale appearance of alien creatures. Local police, eyewitnesses, reports, all kinds of abnormal situations are not there, which shows from the side that Alien has not closely intersected with Essia.
Link looked at the picture in deep thought, and then said, "Troy, help me draw the coastline of Essia."
Soon, a bright red meandering line appeared under the dark clouds in the computer. This was the coastline of Essia, and it was the result of Troy's combination of daily recorded photos and data collected in the database.
Looking at this coastline again, it only accounts for about one-third of the entire circular dark cloud, and the vast sea area is also shrouded in dark clouds.
"Troy, tell me your guess."
Troy analyzed Essia's big data, and it can be said that he has conducted a thorough investigation of Essia. Coupled with a certain ability of logical analysis, the conclusions he obtained are likely to be close to the truth.
"I guess that this shadow dog has a high probability of coming from the sea. According to the data of the shadow dog, the source of the problem is very likely to appear on the island." The islands are all marked and listed.
"It is difficult to disperse the clouds in the short term. The head of state can send helicopters to patrol the waters, and the answer should be revealed soon."
Troy's guess analysis was consistent with Link's answer.
Because of his butterfly effect, this alien invasion not only changed the time, but also changed the place, and it actually reached the sea.
Two words - very tricky!
If it is land, then Link can organize a wave to rely on the advantage of scale, but at sea, there are not so many transport ships, and there is no way to engage in large-scale battles. And many islands are far away from the coastline, exceeding the range of long-range strikes.
This is simply a sea fortress.
If the alien demon race in the previous life was a large-scale and aimless invasion method, then this invasion was definitely premeditated.
Just after Link and Troy came to the same conclusion, the voice bug in the potted plant on the table suddenly stood up and said, "I have your phone!"
Link immediately grabbed the voice bug and put it in his ear, and soon heard the sound of the duke's breathing.
"It is clear from the investigation that these monsters come from the sea."
Link had already anticipated it in his heart, so after hearing the confirmed news, there was no ups and downs in his mood.
"I will now order the special forces to enter Essia, and at the same time the fire strike force will advance in place. You should hurry up and retreat from the sea."
The duke humbly agreed, and immediately asked: "The storm, is it really coming?"
"Looking now, yes."
The two were speechless and disconnected at the same time.
Link crossed his hands and touched his chin. His eyebrows were properly hidden in the shadows formed by the lights. The horizon outside the window was white with fish belly, representing the dawn of hope.
"Troy, declare it, Sandu and Essia enter a state of emergency."
"The war is about to begin."
