Chapter 913 Mysterious Toxoplasma Gondii

"Defend the position and don't let them rush in!"

A transcendent scholar commander stood in front of the crack in the ban that was torn apart by dark lightning and shouted loudly.

Groups of scholar-soldiers followed his shouts and charged forward in full gear. Several eight-legged self-propelled cannons passed above his head, and outside were a group of lava dogs that looked like molten flows.

Zhi...

The laser of the eight-legged self-propelled cannon is like a sharp sword, sweeping hundreds of meters away. It is undoubtedly particularly eye-catching on the battlefield, but what is more common on the battlefield is the cooperation of ordinary scholars and heavy metal tanks. Stay on the front line.

Raun is one of hundreds of advanced scholars who have obtained the violent disguise potion.

As for his position, he was a frontline commander with more than twenty naturalists under his command.

There were explosions and shouts everywhere, heavy metal tanks roared, and thick gears rubbed against each other to drive forward.

On such a vast battlefield, an individual is really insignificant.

Raun didn't know if he would survive.

"team leader!"

After Lawn turned around, the female scholar shouted anxiously: "Be careful!"

There was a bang.

But he saw a lava dog suddenly crossing the front line of several hundred meters, falling from high altitude like a meteor, and landed on the heavy metal chariot near him. With the dazzling fire and shock wave, more than a dozen nearby scholars were affected. , Lawn also leaned back and lost consciousness for a moment in dizziness.

Compared with the huge size of the heavy metal chariot, which is more than ten meters, this lava dog is obviously much smaller.

But even this heavy metal tank, which is famous for its super defense, suddenly started to twist and melt under the impact of the lava dog. The tank suddenly stretched out two mechanical arms, grabbed the lava dog and threw it to the ground. Open, this is the melee weapon of the Heavy Metal Tank.

The nearby scholars began to fight back and shot the lava dog to death. It staggered for two steps and then collapsed completely.

More lava dogs have rushed over.

When Raun came to his senses again, the front line, which was still hundreds of meters away, was now in front of him, driven by the continuous advancement of the lava dogs, and began to attack behind him.

He instinctively wiped the blood from his forehead, and when he saw that the female scholar who had warned him to be careful before was now a corpse, Raun let out a hysterical roar.

"ah……"

He took out his magic weapon, which was a fan. It had the power of Luolu Feng. Once the flesh and blood was contaminated in the slightest, it would instantly become limp and weak, and then he would die as painfully as if thousands of needles had penetrated the heart.

As far as the eye can see, more than ten meters away, a lava dog has torn apart the defense of the heavy metal chariot, dragged out the scholar inside, and was in the process of swallowing it.

He saw with his own eyes that the scholar's feet were sinking little by little into the lava dog's maw.

With a whoosh, Raun jumped up and slapped the lava dog hard with his magic fan.

The terrible wind fell from the sky, like a howling ghost and a wolf!

The lava dog was caught off guard and was enveloped by the black wind. It suddenly let out a painful whimper. The originally raging flames on its body suddenly withered, but the pain seemed to stimulate it even more. Its eyes, which were almost blocked by wrinkled skin, showed a fierce look, and its huge body With a sudden leap, his speed was extremely fast. He knocked down Lao En who was unable to dodge in the air and pinned him to the ground.

There was a bang, and after Lao En fell to the ground, his heart felt cold.

"This lava dog seems to be at the leader level. Is he going to die here..."

If an ordinary high-level lava dog was hit by his full strength, it would definitely fall into complete weakness and depression. However, this lava dog seems to be much stronger. Even if it is hit by his own downfall, it still has some remaining strength.

Just when Lawn was desperate.

Sudden.

The lava dog leader who had knocked him down with a fierce look in his eyes was about to tear this hateful guy into pieces when he suddenly showed a look of confusion.

It looked at the human under its paws in confusion, sniffing constantly with its nose. After looking at it for a while, its huge head swayed left and right, it seemed to be sure of something. Not only did it quickly raise its huge paw, it actually stretched out a pink His lustful tongue licked Lawn's face in a pleasing manner.

Seeing this scene, Lao En, who had been waiting for death, his mind went blank and he was a little confused.

"How is this going?"

Then the lava dog, like a puppy welcoming its owner, jumped happily around Lao En on this cruel battlefield, without any of its previous ferocious appearance.

After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Lawn slowly stood up.

The other scholars around him screamed and died in the rush of the lava dogs, but he was like an isolated island. All the lava dogs instinctively avoided him, as well as several lava dogs and this leader. He also stopped and approached with his head lowered, as if he wanted to be comforted by his master.

Raun stretched out his slightly trembling arm and gently stroked the huge head that approached him.

In just a moment, Lao En felt as if the other party understood what he meant.

After its huge head shook left and right for a while, it actually stopped trying to rush into the city to kill, and instead ran away against the lava dogs.

Raun couldn't believe it, and he tried to touch the head of the lava dog leader again.

"Wooooooow woof woof..."

The leader of the lava dogs barked. After barking a few times, he stopped trying to rush into the city and ran away. Perhaps because of the leader, he even took away a few lava dogs.

A similar situation didn't just happen to Lawn.

Many scholars who obtained the violent camouflage potion discovered strange things about themselves.

Not only did these lava dogs not attack themselves, but they behaved very docilely and obeyed their words, just like a real enlarged version of a bulldog.

This way.

The originally unstoppable torrent of lava dogs suddenly caused some chaos, and the offensive suffered a lot. The scholars relied on their defensive advantages to not only resist the invasion of the lava dogs, but also caused huge damage to the lava dogs, which was the same as two months ago. The battlefield of the forward front is in sharp contrast.

distance.

Some Honkaishi who were watching seemed to have discovered this strange situation and became a little restless.

"what is going on?"

"Why are there so many running back?"

Although these bull-headed monsters were puzzled, they had no corresponding solution. They could only watch the chaos happen and report the situation to the higher-ups.

The so-called high-level people are those high-level Honkai warriors who are indifferent to the battlefield situation and are patiently waiting for the real prey to appear.

the other side.

The pioneers overlooking the battlefield from the top of the tower expressed admiration.

This battle has lasted for almost an hour.

It was just the lava dogs raised by the Honkai Impact, but the damage caused to the Blue Sky Engineering Academy was not insignificant. Most of the war weapons outside the city had been lost, and many scholars in the city had died at the claws of these ferocious beasts.

Now the scholars have finally gained some advantages by relying on the violent camouflage potion researched by the X Academy of Progress.

"The frost warlock's sacrifice was not in vain."

The Balrog Howler among the seventeen pioneers suddenly spoke and murmured.

Corleone on the side looked sideways and asked in a low voice: "You seem to know something?"

The Balrog Growler did not turn around, he said quietly: "I heard that through those lava dogs and Honkai specimens, X Progress Academy did discover some secrets, not just the violent disguise potion, this is just an incidental product. Whether academia can achieve final victory in this war, a large part of the reason may fall on those specimens."

When Corleone heard this, he felt a little regretful.

He could have participated in this mission, but unfortunately after hearing the news about this old guy, he finally chose the Blue Sky Engineering Academy.

"It's a pity that the effect is only ten minutes."

In this war, it seems that the Blue Sky Engineering Academy relied on the violent camouflage agent to gain some stage advantages in the early stages of the war. In fact, in the contact with the Honkai Impact, the academic community used the cognitive habits of scholar civilization to treat this powerful Civilization gradually begins to understand, and through wisdom, it gradually begins to analyze this civilization and find the weaknesses of the other party.

This is the result of the different war models adopted by civilizations with two different cultures.

As the academic community's understanding of the Honkai Impact becomes more and more comprehensive and detailed, as long as the Honkai civilization does not occupy an irresistible absolute advantage in terms of force, then as time goes by, the balance of victory will undoubtedly become more and more tilted towards the academic community. one party.

This is also the characteristic of scholar civilization.

The X Academy of Progress has indeed discovered some deep mysteries in the Honkai Impact that have not yet been made public.

This is not just a characteristic of the body's texture structure, such as the combination of anger and happiness, ultra-high dopamine secretion, painful electric stimulation in the horns, etc., but the mystery of the evolutionary process.

The so-called violent camouflage potion is a product developed by the X Academy of Progress based on the characteristics of lava dog specimens for these combat creatures. The secret lies in its cognitive system, which relies on its sense of smell to distinguish the taste of emotions.

During the long symbiotic evolution of Lava Dogs and Honkai Impact, the excitement of the Honkai Impact's pain stimulating anger and the secretion of dopamine through anger has penetrated deep into the bone marrow.

Based on this, the X Academy of Progress developed a violent camouflage potion.

The characteristic of this potion is that it allows anthropologists to be infected with the scent of Honkai within a short period of time, thereby making lava dogs lose their ability to distinguish.

This is the result of research on lava dogs.

As for the research on the Honkai Impact itself, the X Academy of Progress also made a major discovery after preliminary physiological anatomy and in-depth research.

This is why it is strictly forbidden to take violent camouflage potion!

"The habits of these little things...could they be a mutated Toxoplasma gondii?"

X stared at the cell nuclei under the microscope and murmured to herself that she had conducted many transplant experiments on these parasites, not just mice, but even large primates.

Because X discovered through experimental research that the cells of the Honkai Impact seemed to be extremely commonly infected with a parasite.

Through research, this is a mysterious parasite similar to the characteristics of Toxoplasma gondii in academia.

The so-called Toxoplasma gondii is also called the three-corpse worm.

This is an intracellular parasite that lives in cells and travels through the bloodstream to all parts of the body, destroying the brain, heart, and fundus of the eyes, causing the host's immunity to decline and suffer from various diseases.

During the Principality period, this kind of parasitic disease was very common among civilians, and there were many targeted treatments in the academic world. Nowadays, with the development of the academic world, this kind of disease has become relatively rare, and the victims are mainly concentrated in domestic animals, snakes, rats, fish, birds and other creatures. in vivo.

In academia, organisms infected by such parasites often have a characteristic, that is, their mental thinking will be affected by the parasite, and they will actively seek danger. For example, in the most common case, some rats will actively provoke their natural enemies. , to find creatures such as cats, snakes, or weasels, in order to obtain happiness and death, and also to allow Toxoplasma gondii to obtain a new carrier, enter the next stage of development, and complete the reincarnation of the life cycle.

all in all.

In academia, this parasite is a microscopic life form that needs to constantly change hosts to complete its life cycle.

But now!

Similar parasites were found in the cells of all Honkai Impact specimens.

Compared with the Toxoplasma gondii in academia, these Toxoplasma gondii parasitizing the bodies of the Honkai Impact, although they have mutated, and their habits and characteristics have changed, there is only one thing, they are the same.

That is to stimulate the host to constantly look for danger in order to obtain intense pleasure!

"Could it be that the powerful power of the Honkai Impact comes from these little things, forming a symbiotic system with this parasite?"

X adjusted his glasses, and the more he thought about it, the more enlightened he became.

The more advanced and intelligent a creature is, the harder it is to obtain the happiness of dopamine.

On the contrary, these Honkai Impact members have moved towards another way of evolution, a rampant and simple intelligent evolution mode, which is more suitable for obtaining the stimulation of dopamine secretion.

"If you think about it, maybe the evolutionary history of these guys is the civilization system that gradually formed after being infected with Toxoplasma gondii? Oh... If this is the case, I really have to thank the older generation of scholars. Fortunately, the academic community has always been I insist on treating this disease, otherwise I may become like these bulls and become a group of lunatics who only know how to seek pain."

X's muttering to himself was mostly a joke after he discovered something.
