Chapter 898 Activated Plasma
The "plasma slime" created by Joan's spell was suddenly thrown into a completely unfamiliar environment, and he was so frightened that he lay in the center of the glass dish and dared not move.
After a few seconds, the little thing seemed to realize that it was temporarily safe, so it squirmed cautiously, spread its jelly-like body into a large red cake, and evenly attached it to the bottom of the glass vessel.
Joan didn't understand the purpose of this little thing spreading its body surface area as much as possible.
Perhaps, this is just an unconscious behavior.
With a hint of curiosity, Joan performed "Advanced Internal Vision" to check the physical condition of "Plasma Slime".
...
Reconnaissance target: Activated plasma (ultraminiature activated construct, ooze subspecies)
Health status: good
Threat Level: None
Attributes: Strength 1, Dexterity 1, Constitution 1, Intelligence - (<1), Wisdom 1, Charisma 1
...
The data displayed in front of him basically met Joan's expectations.
"Activated plasma", that is, "plasma slime" basking in the sun in a glass dish, the species classification is "activated construct", and its jelly-like liquid body also has the characteristics of the "ooze monster" subspecies .
All attributes of "activated plasma" are pitifully weak, not much better than ants.
With a physical attribute of 1 in all items, this poor little thing is doomed to have no attack power at all, and like most "slime monsters", "activated plasma" has almost no intelligence (to be precise, intelligence < 1).
From this point of view, it may not be out of deliberation to spread its body on the glass dish, but it is just an instinctive behavior, trying to find more contact surfaces and support points for its body, so as to reduce its own burden. burden.
For liquid creatures, in a gravity environment, if they shrink themselves into a compact spherical shape, they need to consume more energy to maintain their shape.
On the contrary, let the liquid body spread out naturally under the action of gravity, and the flat container under the body bears the weight, which can save energy consumption-this is like an obese person, it is always easier to lie down than to stand.
Life feeds on negative entropy.
A living body must be a low-entropy body.
To maintain a low entropy state, energy must be consumed.
In the case of inconvenient access to food, in order to maintain its own low-entropy state, in order to survive, organisms must do everything possible to reduce energy consumption.
This principle of survival is followed regardless of advanced intelligence.
Judging from the behavior of "activated plasma", although it is not smart, it also has the above-mentioned survival instinct.
Joan didn't know how "activated plasma" could take in energy for life.
It does not seem to have developed a complete feeding and digestive organs, how to absorb nutrients?
Is it also like the "ooze monster", which wraps the prey in its body and dissolves and absorbs it.
Plasma, however, is not a strongly corrosive liquid and does not seem to be able to dissolve food.
What's more, Qiao An didn't even know what foods "activated plasma" could absorb.
Plasma obviously cannot "photosynthesize" like plants, so... would it like to drink sugar water?
Joan was obsessed with these influx of thoughts, and it took two minutes for him to come back to his senses suddenly, laughing dumbfounded at his wild thoughts.
In fact, he didn't need to think about the feeding and survival of "activated plasma".
Because, the life force of this little thing comes from the "secondary activated item", and this spell can only temporarily give life force to the object.
With Joan's current spellcasting level, the activated plasma can only last for 7 minutes at most. After that, when the mana is exhausted, it will turn back into a pool of lifeless plasma.
With just seven minutes of life, there is no need to think about diet.
Realizing this, Joan inexplicably felt a little sad.
Seven minutes of life, in the eyes of a human like him, is indeed very short.
However, human life is only a mere few dozen years. In the eyes of "longevity species" such as elves, dwarves, and giant dragons, isn't it also short-lived and almost ridiculous?
The efforts made by human beings to prolong life, and the active attempts made by human society in various fields such as improving clothing, food, housing, transportation and medical conditions, are reflected in the elves, the elves, who are born to live for several or even dozens of centuries In the eyes of dwarves and giant dragons, isn't it the same thing as the group of "activated plasma" on the plate at this moment to flatten their bodies to reduce energy consumption?
It's all to prolong the short life as much as possible for a moment, Joan feels that he is not qualified to laugh at the little things that live seriously on the plate.
With mixed emotions of respect and pity, Joan inspired a "power of myth", touched the "activated plasma" on the plate with his fingertips, and used the "secondary activated item" again to prolong its life.
Joan's "mythical power", the magic power level is equivalent to a 3rd-level spell slot, in addition to supplying magic power for "secondary activated items", there is still a small part of magic power left, which Joan uses to perform the super magic skill "advanced spell extension". Time", increase the effective time limit of the spell by one level.
In this way, the lifespan of "activated plasma" was extended from 7 minutes to 70 minutes.
Joan did this not only out of sympathy for this little life that originated from him, but also to provide sufficient time for follow-up research.
Otherwise, I will be as fierce as a tiger here, and the results will be produced soon, and the "activated plasma" will die suddenly, just like entering the bridal chamber only to find out that the bride has slipped away.
Considering the time constraints, Joan put aside distracting thoughts and concentrated on thinking about the next step.
Now he has successfully activated a small amount of blood plasma, making it temporarily gain vitality.
However, the intelligence of "activated plasma" is too low. They only have instincts but don't know how to think, and they can't learn any new knowledge.
In this state, Joan couldn't communicate effectively with it, and of course it was impossible to persuade it to be obedient.
Next, Joan's purpose is very clear, which is to try to improve the intelligence attribute of "activated plasma".
To this end, he first had to do a foreshadowing work, which was to change the species form of the "activated plasma" and make it a new species with more evolutionary potential.
Joan naturally thought that "myth transformation" can change the species of a creature from the cellular level.
As far as Joan's own species is concerned, it is human beings first, and also has "weird bloodlines" and "insect bloodlines", so when he casts the "mythical transformation technique", he can become a "humanoid creature" , "Strange Creature", or "Insect Creature".
"Activated plasma" is transformed from the blood extracted from Joan's body. Of course, it also contains the genes of all his species. In theory, it can also be affected by the "mythical transformation technique" and become the above three species forms.
However, there is a technical difficulty here.
