Chapter 1222

"It wasn't until you returned from the Dead Sea that Nehemiah sent the Archangel to the Alcubador star system, and only then did you discover that earth-shaking changes have taken place below in more than a year."

Tang Fang nodded, motioning for him to continue talking.

Valentine pointed to the tree-shaped body in the glass container: "Today's Creep Continent is almost covered with this kind of medoid-like derivatives between plants and animals, forming a 'primitive jungle'."

"Pristine jungle?" Tang Fang was surprised when he heard the words. He thought the thing in the glass container was a special creature that Abathur found on Akron. Out of curiosity, he took it to the Angel for biological research, but according to Valentine , this thing is not a rare species, it is everywhere in the Creep Continent.

"Could it be the influence of the dryad's remains?"

He suddenly remembered that a year ago, sisters Cathy and Sonia transformed into space-based electromagnetic guns, blasting mutant dryads with elemental creatures. Later, after the Creep Continent was established, Cerebral Dagus regarded it as his lair.

The order I gave it was to graze Akron and guide the primitive Zerg to multiply rapidly. As an existence with the same ability as Abathur, if it is said that it combines the gene of the dryad with the gene of the AQBD-1 jellyfish to concoct the tree-shaped creature in front of it, which is used to improve the survival and survival of Akron. The competitive environment is naturally a very normal thing.

But Valentine quickly denied his conjecture: "I thought so too at first, but after communicating with Dagos, I found out that this thing was not done by him, and the tree-shaped creature didn't inherit too much tree demon DNA. Matter, only a very small part."

As a Zerg creature that pursues efficiency, Abathur is very disgusted with the habit of human beings to talk at length and start from the beginning, so he couldn't help interjecting: "The gene source of the tree-shaped body...doubtful...may be related to the meteorite impact.... "

Its words were concise, but Tang Fang was at a loss: "External... meteorite impact?"

Valentine said angrily: "Abathur, shut up." After speaking, he explained to Tang Fang in detail: "According to the descriptions of Dags and Jager Claw, the local biological derivatives of Akron star have developed greatly. More than half a year ago. And just half a month before this situation occurred, the Protoss satellite monitored a meteorite rain from outer space landing in the arctic sea area of ​​​​Akron Star."

"For this reason, I specifically read the scan records kept by the Protoss satellite base station. After the meteorite rain fell, the organic composition of the Akron ocean changed slightly, and the acid concentration weakened. Now the scientific research drone sent by the Angel is investigating Sampling and analysis of the seawater in various regions of Akron Star will give more detailed results in a while."

"Also...Walton has already driven the Nightmare to search for meteorite fragments in the Arctic waters of Akron."

Through Valentine's narration, he has a general understanding of the changes in Akron after his disappearance. If Abathur and Valentine's conjecture is correct, and the cause of the explosion of epic creature derivatives on Star Akron is the meteorite rain that appeared half a year ago, then the question arises... Is there any catalyst in the meteorite that can catalyze the evolution of epic creatures? Organic matter?

Indeed, many studies have shown that some meteorites contain rich organic substances. Some human scientists speculate that the origin of life on earth began with the meteorite rain that fell from the sky. However, epic creatures are not bug-level mysterious objects like phagosomes, and there is no way to rapidly evolve through absorbing huge energy or biological genes.

They come from the world of Ark and are a kind of artificial modulation product. Like the evil eyes of Nami star and the giant snake of the final star Ipsilon relay station, they all grow up after a long time in a suitable "soil" environment. .

Under normal circumstances, it is absolutely impossible for the organic substances contained in meteorites to cause this level of change. Is there another deeper reason behind this incident?

He didn't know...he could only wait for Walton to find the meteorite fragments, and after careful analysis, he might find the answer to the question.

"I'll go to the ground to see, maybe I can get more clues from Dagos and Jager Claw." After saying this, he took out the T energy stone from his pocket and handed it to Valentine: " This is what I found in the Lost Lands.

"

The old man said: "Is there only one... I hope it will be useful."

He couldn't help but roll his eyes, wondering if this old guy used the T energy stone as a cabbage on the side of the road... It was only this one that he had worked so hard to snatch from the guard of the female statue.

At this moment, the door of the medical laboratory suddenly opened, Roy walked into the room from the outside, looked around, and finally fell on Tang Fang's face: "Brother Tang, the protoss satellite found that the original Zerg unit of Akron star has Large-scale gathering, Captain Nehemiah asked me to come and inform you."

He frowned upon hearing this, turned and walked outside.

It just so happened that he was going to the Creep Continent to see what happened.

Roy hesitated, and caught up from behind, saying, "Brother Tang, I'll go with you."

Tang Fang didn't speak, just nodded and walked to the nearest hangar.

About 5 minutes later, the special operations transport ship left the Angel, and flew to the location of the Akron Star Creep Continent.

When the aircraft pierced through the clouds and entered the interior of the planet, through the front window, I finally saw the situation of the Creep Continent clearly.

The mountain peak formed by the corpse of the mutated tree demon is still inserted in the center of the mainland, but it has changed from the past, as if covered with a light silk veil, and turned into a beautiful snow mountain. The purple continent made of countless creep materials changed its color, and the ground was covered with dense trees, looking like a snowfield from a distance.

According to the information provided by Valentine, the tree-shaped creatures on the ground of the Creep Continent will emit green fluorescence with different brightness at night, dyeing the entire continent into a fantasy kingdom.

In fact, there are many types of tree-shaped organisms. The samples in the glass container of the Angel are relatively mild. There are also rattan net individuals similar to pitcher plants that feed on flesh and blood creatures. Fortunately, there are not many of them.

When the special operations transport ship approached the edge of the Creep continent, he also discovered a strange phenomenon. Creep serves as the foundation of the Zerg's existence and is very repellent to alien species. But this cognition was broken by the scene of the appearance of Akron. The crevices on the edge of the continent were filled with a silver-gray substance, which looked very hard, like a layer of cement shell, enveloping the entire continent.

He didn't know if it was a special plant like seaweed, or an aquatic creature like sea clam and conch. In short, no matter from the overall environment or local details, the situation here is quite different from that of more than a year ago.

Roy went here with him when he first searched for the origin of the AQBD-1 asexual jellyfish. Now that he saw the situation in the Creep Continent, he was a little confused about the current situation, and said in a muffled voice, "Brother Tang, hit me up." , hit me..."

"Why should I hit you?"

The eldest son said in a naive voice, "I want to know if I am dreaming."

Tang Fang slapped him on the back of the head: "If I remember correctly, you are already an adult after your July birthday, why are you still acting like a child?"

Roy said solemnly, "I want to save my birthday until Yingluo wakes up."

Captain Tang was very speechless, he didn't know whether to call him childish or persistent.

"Okay, when Yingluo wakes up, I will hold a grand coming-of-age ceremony for you, or...a wedding?"

Roy smirked very solidly: "Marriage... wedding? I... I... haven't prepared myself yet."

Tang Fang laughed, stopped teasing him, and communicated with Dags and Yager Claw to determine their location and see where to park the special operations transport ship.

As he expected, the dead house of Cerebral Worm Daggs stayed safely in the lair made of mutated dryad corpses. But Jagerpaw's answer was abnormal: "Don't bother me, annoying human."

This made him very upset, thinking that he hadn't come back for more than a year, this brainless guy forgot what he said at the beginning, and started to become lawless, not knowing how much he weighed.

The latest information from the protoss satellite synchronized to the special operations transport ship interrupted his cranky thoughts. Seeing the azimuth coordinates displayed on the "globe", he suddenly found that it was the location of Yager Claw.

"What's going on?" He hesitated for a moment, chose to correct the flight route of the special operations transport ship, and rushed to the coordinates provided by the protoss satellite.

Fifteen minutes later, when they were about to reach their destination, a cloud of purple liquid suddenly rose from the dense forest below and shot towards the bottom cabin of the special operations transport ship. Fortunately, Roy responded in time and turned the ship immediately, avoiding the attack from the ground. s attack.

He neither praised Roy nor secretly thanked himself. He focused on the monitor in front of him and frowned at the hostile targets marked by the system.

It was a 10-meter-tall object hidden in a dense forest. If it was just the camera of the special operations transport ship without the detectors following it, there might be no way to see through the target's camouflage.

Its body color perfectly matches the surrounding environment. From the scanned image provided by the detector, the creature attacking the special operations transport ship has very obvious localized characteristics. The first half looks like a caterpillar with many legs, and the second half Part of it dragged a huge flower bud, three times the size of the head.

Perhaps because of the high load, the moving speed is very slow. When it attacks, its buttocks will be raised high, and the bud-shaped biological tissues of its lower body will be opened, which looks a lot like a white lotus flower.

From an appreciation point of view, it's beautiful. But from the perspective of the receiver, this is very dangerous.

Because the stigma of the lotus flower core will squeeze out a purple vacuole, judging from his experience just now, it is obviously not a colored ball to welcome guests and friends.

Akron... When did this thing exist?

Roy controlled the special operations transport ship to avoid the second purple cannonball, and said angrily, "Damn it, that guy is humiliating us with his excretory organs."

Tang Fang didn't respond to his call, because Yager's claws roared in his mind: "Ah... I'm really fed up with you humans. At this moment, I have to divide my troops to protect the chaotic guy... Why is my life so miserable? .”

As soon as the voice fell, a burst of flames spewed out from the core area of ​​the valley terrain formed for unknown reasons ahead, startling a group of birds.

No, those are not flying birds. If you look closely, you will find that they have four membranous flying wings, and there is a sharp bone spur at the end of the snake-shaped body.

More than a dozen primordial allosaurus circled in the air, climbed to a high altitude, swooped down at an extremely fast speed, drilled into the gap in the jungle, and launched a siege to the ground creatures that attacked the special operations transport ship just now.

The sharp thorns tore through the air, made a sharp whistle, and pierced deeply into the lower body of the strange insect. Those biological tissues like white lotus petals were like a broken vase, and the transparent juice poured out wildly, pouring on the surrounding ground, like rain .

The 10-meter-long worm worked hard to wriggle its body, and its front body plunged into the creep continent. The jets no longer attacked the special operations transport ship, but switched targets and launched a counterattack against the original zerg.

A purple vacuole flew into the sky, shattered with a bang, and the fine biological acid splashed outward, forming a damage range like a fragmented missile.

The flesh membranes of the two primitive allosaurus were affected, but fortunately it was not fatal, but they became somewhat inflexible.

To Tang Fang's surprise, the bony spurs pierced into the tiger's lower body radiated blue textures, especially striking on the white body, and those transparent body fluids flowed endlessly.

He does not believe that the ground organisms derived from AQBD-1 asexual jellyfish do not have platelet-like substances in their bodies to help wounds heal. It seems that not only the local organisms in Akron have a large-scale outbreak, but even the original Zerg units have been targeted. sexual ability.

It is not difficult to kill a ground creature with a small size difference with a dozen primitive different dragons, but Tang Fang was surprised that when the ground creature that attacked the special operations transport ship was about to die, A nearby branch of a big tree suddenly flashed white, and penetrated into the wound of the ground creature at an extremely fast speed.

"Woo..." Amidst the low howling, the body of the creature on the ground twitched violently for a while, and finally remained still. More than a dozen primitive allosaurus lingered in the sky for a while, returned along the original road, and re-entered the valley ahead.

Tang Fang looked at the creatures on the ground that were shrinking in size on the monitor, showing an expression of disbelief. I didn't expect that I hadn't been here for a year and a half, and the biodiversity of Akron had reached such a level.

Moss-like organisms that can live in symbiosis with creep... The snow-colored forests that cover the creep continent... Giant lotus beasts that can spray biological cannonballs... Insidious and cunning parasites...

In a daze, silk whiskers rippling in the depths of the jungle, some small creatures about half a meter long, with gliding feet similar to queen worms and transparent meat membranes, fell from the branches in a gliding posture, and began to eat the corpses of dead creatures.

Roy scratched his scalp and said excitedly, "It's incredible... After Yingluo wakes up, I will definitely bring her here to have a look."

Tang Fang woke up after hearing the words, shook his head and said, "Nine out of ten sentences of yours can't be separated from Yingluo. You are young... so nice."

The half-child was puzzled and said, "Is there...hehe, I didn't pay attention."
