Chapter 177 Experience

The memory inside the memory that Chen Ming saw started from when the Queen was still dormant in an asteroid.

This was an asteroid that had been discovered by the military of the star region a long time ago, and it was confirmed that there were Thorn Zerg inside and rare mineral deposits.

However, although it was called an asteroid, its diameter was already close to one kilometer.

Although the military had the ability to mine it, it did not, but found a way to drag the asteroid to the galaxy where the mining space station was located, and deliberately let the space station scan it.

The mining space station was indeed doing things according to the military's ideas.

When the asteroid was searched and scanned for rare minerals on the asteroid.

The space station took the initiative to send a tugboat to tow the asteroid to the mining area of ​​the mining space station.

The large mining lasers and mining equipment here were used to develop the asteroid.

On the day when the preparations before mining were completed, the first special metal ore was collected, and more high-value minerals were scanned.

The space station held a celebration banquet.

Then someone took advantage of the celebration banquet and the mining operators who were still working to manually adjust the mining plan during their shifts.

Originally, if the space station was mining the asteroid according to normal safety procedures.

Then after a few days, the outer wall of the asteroid would become thinner, and the Zerg secretions in the internal worm nest would interfere less with the civilian-level scanning detectors here in the space station.

This means that the mining space station is very likely to discover abnormalities inside the asteroid and take countermeasures in advance.

But this modified mining plan did not follow the mining safety regulations at all, which led to the internal worms being released in advance when no one expected it.

And because of the noise of the previous mining, the Zerg inside had woken up, and the crazy worms that had been knocked for two days instantly poured into the space station.

The person who changed the plan was definitely a spy planted by the military, and he also had a certain status, otherwise he should not have been able to change the mining plan under such circumstances.

As for the final outcome of this person, the Queen of the Worm saw it clearly anyway.

Because he hid in a corner of the mining area after releasing the worms.

He operated several industrial robots and entered the asteroid after almost all the Zerg had left the asteroid.

He stole a Thorn Zerg egg from the hive and immediately used the potion he had prepared to put the egg into hibernation.

Thirty years ago, the Thorn Zerg was a rare creature, just like it is now, and their eggs are indeed of good value.

The man then stored the eggs and placed them in a hidden corner of the warehouse, preparing to find an opportunity to take them away.

Then he was killed by the Queen of the Zerg who had already set his sights on him.

But even if the Queen of the Zerg didn't kill him, he would most likely die under the guns of the star region military who were squatting outside the space station.

On the other side, the Zerg that poured into the space station did cause great damage to the space station.

This is not right.

The mining space station is located in the edge star field, and it must have basic defense capabilities.

Even if it is an attack from within.

What's more, people who can survive in the edge star field, unless they are pure technicians like Chen Ming who took the initiative to come here for promotion, have nothing else to do except hibernation and work.

Other people have experienced battles to some extent.

The sudden appearance of the Zerg will definitely cause a brief chaos inside the space station, but after some people died, the space station management can definitely resist.

After all, this is just a worm inside an asteroid, not a fully developed Zerg army.

But in the memory of the Queen of the Worm.

The space station did not organize a decent resistance at all, only a few scattered people made futile counterattacks when facing the sudden attack of the Zerg.

There were also some autonomous defense measures of the space station that barely stopped the Zerg's steps, and there was no other resistance.

It was as if this was not a space station with a tough folk customs located in the edge star field.

As for the reason for this situation, Chen Ming also learned from the memory of the Queen of the Worm.

And he learned it from the scene that left the deepest impression on him in this memory.

It was the scene when the Queen of the Worm's worms arrived at the living area of ​​the space station and found the hall where the celebration banquet was held.

When the worms broke through the door of the hall.

In front of them were tables of luxurious dishes compared to the edge star field, and blue-faced corpses lying on the ground next to them.

All the management and team leaders of the space station were dead.

Many employees who could not attend the banquet due to work requirements but were given some scraps of the delicious banquet dishes distributed by the kitchen also died at their workstations.

Even some people who happened to be temporarily stationed at the mining space station and were just passing by individual mining ships or caravans died here because they were invited to the banquet.

This indiscriminate large-scale attack caused the space station to completely lose its leader.

The remaining ordinary employees and other ordinary people who were still alive had no way to organize a decent resistance and could only flee on their own.

But outside, the spacecraft of the star zone military was waiting.

This was a dead end.

The galaxy where the mining space station was located was blocked.

The Queen of Worms occupied the space station, emptied almost all the food in the space station warehouse, and then hibernated for more than 30 years.

Until the day when Chen Ming woke up from the frozen hibernation chamber.

What happened next was what Chen Ming knew, and he knew very well what happened during this period.

Especially from the perspective of the Queen of Worms, seeing that it took only two days to directly cultivate hundreds of cysts, Chen Ming also confirmed again how strong the evolutionary ability of the Zerg was.

However, after discovering that the Zerg had cysts, he did not approach the space station again.

So what happened next still depends on the memory of the Queen of Worms.

After Chen Ming left, the Queen of Worms asked a large number of worms to stare at the direction where Chen Ming's spacecraft last left for more than half a month.

The result was naturally nothing.

During these days, the bugs began to frequently go to the dock, going in and out of the ships that were basically damaged but not completely destroyed.

Then one day, the Queen of the Bugs started to move in person.

The fat and bloated bug was carried by the bugs on the space station and transported to the most intact civilian ship.

After a few days, the bugs' proliferation completely covered the ship and assimilated it into their nest.

Then, the Queen of the Bugs learned how to start the ship.

Although the operation of civilian ships has been simplified to the point where it does not require much professional knowledge to drive, Chen Ming was still a little surprised that the Queen of the Bugs learned it.

But if you think about it carefully, the race has a clustered hive mindset, and as the number of Zerg increases, it seems that there is no problem with the IQ increasing.

In short, the Queen of the Bugs stayed inside the ship and stayed there for a week.

During the journey, bugs kept delivering spacecraft fuel, various augmentations, and a lot of bright green gel-like substances, which should be the Thorn Zerg shellac he had discovered before, a kind of Zerg food, to the spacecraft.

At the same time, other bugs gradually dismantled several other more severely damaged spacecraft, and many materials and equipment on them were gradually moved to the spacecraft where the Queen of the Bugs was.

After a few days, the augmentations on the outside of the spacecraft hosted by the Queen of the Bugs gradually faded away.

Although it had many flaws, a spacecraft that had almost all of its damage repaired by the Zerg in their own way appeared on the space station.

Chen Ming remembered that he originally chose the Iron Mine, the most intact spacecraft, because the other spacecrafts except the Iron Mine were too old and too fragile, and there was almost no possibility of repair.

So he chose the Iron Mine at the beginning.

He didn't expect that those spacecrafts that he thought could not be repaired were actually maintained by these bugs.

Even after the augmentations outside faded away.

The Queen of the Bugs spent a few days sending all the bugs on the space station into the interior of this civilian spacecraft with a length of only more than 30 meters.

There should be thousands of bugs in the entire space station, all squeezed into a spaceship.

Of course, this is physically impossible, so the Queen of Worms used a special method.

It digested and absorbed all these bugs again, and turned them into highly concentrated nutrients and stored them on the spaceship.

Only some bugs that it evolved in the two days after Chen Ming drove the spaceship to harass it, which can fly short distances in space, were left on standby.

Relying on the nutrients fed back by a large number of bugs and the biomass converted from the spaceship fuel taken away from the space station in advance.

The Queen of Worms controlled the spaceship very unfamiliarly and slowly flew outside the galaxy, and began to accelerate with the barely running engine of the spaceship.

Like Chen Ming before, the Queen of Worms relied on 99% of the speed of light that civilian spaceships could reach, and arrived at another barren and undeveloped galaxy that was closer to the interior of the empire and staggered with Chen Ming.

Before entering the galaxy, the spaceship began to send distress signals to the outside world under the control of the Queen of Worms.

And this actually attracted a spaceship.

Coincidentally, the people on this spaceship were also pirates.

The pirates immediately took control of this strange, unscannable spaceship and sent people to board it.

Then, they experienced what a horror movie is.

Anyway, the Queen of Worms spent a few days changing the spaceship in space.

Then they directly activated the hyperspace channel system and entered the hyperspace.

Chen Ming didn't know how the Queen of Worms did it, but it just went in.

The Queen of Worms drove the new spaceship into the hyperspace, like a novice driving a spaceship for the first time, staggering and flying through countless galaxies outside the empire.

The Queen of Worms was not fast because it still needed to adapt.

And something needs to be done.

In this process, it gradually became proficient in the control of the spacecraft.

Moreover, it continuously actively discarded the parts of the spacecraft into the hyperspace.

For those parts that were actively discarded, the Queen of the Worm evolved biological tissues that could replace them.

Starting from the most basic armor, then weapons, and then gradually shifting to various internal infrastructure and facilities.

From some equipment that didn't matter if it was lost, to the most important spacecraft control center of the entire spacecraft, it was gradually replaced by the Queen of the Worm itself, the "brain" of the Zerg.

Along with the spacecraft control center, the lines for data flow transmission inside the spacecraft were eliminated, and they were replaced by nerve bundles extending from the Queen of the Worm.

At this point, the entire spacecraft has almost completely become a part of the Queen of the Worm.

In addition to the engine equipped with the hyperspace channel system.

But this engine was also thrown out by the Queen of the Worm about half a month later.

When Chen Ming saw the engine nozzle of the biomass in his memory ejecting the unique gray-green tail flame of the Zerg biological spacecraft mixed with black impurities.

He knew that the bugs must be a huge trouble for humans.

At the same time, for him, it is also a treasure waiting to be developed.

However, there is one thing on the spaceship that the Zerg failed to evolve, the spaceship shield.

In the memory of the Queen, the pirate spaceship it robbed later did have a spaceship shield module that was not very suitable.

But when it tried to evolve the spaceship shield, it found that it could only evolve a bunch of messy hyperplastic flesh and blood, and it was completely unable to build a biological tissue that was as effective as the spaceship shield module.

So in the end it chose to give up, repositioned the heart, placed it in the position of the shield, and it also re-resident in the heart.

And after the shield evolution failed, the Queen deliberately continued to thicken and strengthen the Zerg carapace outside the biological spaceship.

So far, the biomass spaceship has truly appeared in the universe.

This is the process of the Queen of the Thorn Zerg developing in space.

After this, the Queen continued to slowly wander in hyperspace.

It chose the relatively safe direction outside the territory of Yuhui and the mechanical race on the star map that it found in the original spacecraft computer and could understand.

Every time it passed a galaxy, the queen would leave the hyperspace for a while to search for valuable planets inside the galaxy and collect some supplies.

The Zerg can eat anything, and the rigid digestive sac of the biomass spacecraft can also allow it to digest many strange things, so it is not troublesome for the queen to get supplies.

But there are no valuable galaxies that Chen Ming found before on its route, so it can only search for supplies along the way.

Until it came to the galaxy where Chen Ming is now.

In this galaxy, the queen finally found a valuable planet, that is, a planet with a mechanical race city.

However, at this time, the queen also unexpectedly discovered that in the orbit of this planet.

There is another group of Thorn Zerg.

In an asteroid similar to the one where the queen once lived, there is a dormant Thorn Zerg nest.

Then the queen attacked this group.

The biomass spacecraft relied on the evolved frigate-class weapon, the small acid spray capsule, to gain an advantage in range.

Although Chen Ming thought this thing was not very good before.

But after having the memory of the queen, he knew more details about this biological weapon.

After learning that this small acid spray capsule relied on the strong muscles twisted under the Zerg carapace to accurately kill and kill with a range of up to four kilometers.

It is higher than the range of weapons used by ordinary civilian ships to defend against small meteorites and small pirate ships, and even stronger than civilian weapons.

Chen Ming found that the biological weapons of the Zerg did not seem to be as bad as he thought.

As long as there is a suitable environment, it can always play a good effect.

However, the nature of the Zerg itself tends to be melee, and the use of Zerg "fighters" has not changed.

Therefore, the small-scale battle between the two groups ended quickly under the suppression of acid firepower first and the offensive of the Zerg "fighters" breaking into the nest later.

On the spaceship... No, it should be the queen insect that has become a biological spaceship, after devouring the other queen insect.

Some wonderful reactions occurred between the genes of the two queen insects.

It played an effect similar to gene catalysis.

The queen insect evolved again.

This evolution was very special.

The biomass spaceship first attached to the asteroid and began to eat continuously.

The queen insect swallowed the nutrients of dead insects, metal ores, and a gel-like food transformed by the special nutritional insects of the Zerg, that is, shellac.

After almost eating up the asteroid, a large number of growth organisms overflowed from the shells of the biomass spaceship, completely wrapping the biological spaceship like a cocoon.

During this process, the size of the cocoon continued to grow.

It was not until half a month later that the biomass spacecraft broke out of the cocoon, and the original frigate suddenly grew to the level of a destroyer.

This evolution was completely completed.

After that.

The queen laid a special egg, leaving a part of the Zerg in the asteroid it occupied.

Then it left the galaxy and continued to go deep into the starry sky.

The egg left here hatched soon after, inheriting most of the queen's memory.

And after hatching, it became the new queen left on the asteroid.

It relied on swallowing the cocoon left by its mother and some residual nutrients, and evolved into a destroyer-level biomass spacecraft again, landing on the planet below.

It wants to breed, it wants to turn this planet into a part of it.

Although the mechanical race reacted quickly when the new queen just landed, it made full preparations for battle at the first time and eliminated many mechanical races to track it down.

But the Queen Worm escaped from the mechanical race faster than the mechanical race, even after the mechanical race lost the Queen Worm's trace and went back into hibernation.

The Queen Worm also quietly parasitized on the mechanical race's city, making it grow faster than the mother who had only an abandoned space station at the beginning.

But it takes time to grow faster.

Although the size of the insect nest is close to the city, it is not enough to fight the mechanical race head-on and make a suitable exchange ratio. He needs to continue to grow.

But the accident happened again.

When Chen Ming's robot also landed on the planet and entered the mechanical race's city, the Queen Worm suddenly chose to expose herself and attacked the mechanical race's city.

And the reason for this is Chen Ming.

The reason why the Queen Worm suddenly did not grow and gave up for nothing is that it sensed Chen Ming's existence.

The smell left by Chen Ming on the gamma core and the robot is the pheromone for these Zerg.

Although for the Zerg, many things do not actually have too much hatred, some are just life and death on the road to survival.

So even if there was a conflict with the Zerg, the Zerg would not come to retaliate without thinking.

Of course, this is the general situation, and Chen Ming is obviously not the general situation.

Because he had left a deep impression on the Queen of Zerg who was still hiding in the power generation area on the space station.

This was the first non-Zerg creature he encountered after dormant on the space station for more than 30 years.

As a result, he went to harass it every few days and stole things from the space station that they had already regarded as their territory.

Killed a large number of Zerg and larvae in order to test weapons.

Destroyed the space station that was their nest.

Even in the end, it made it wait for half a month in vain like the Waiting for Husband Stone.

No matter which one was picked out separately, the Queen of Zerg would not let Chen Ming go. Even if the Zerg had conflicts with other creatures, they would not have hatred, but simply competed for survival.

In the case of Chen Ming's behavior, it was impossible not to hate Chen Ming.

Therefore, the descendants of the Queen of Zerg on the space station were obviously the same after inheriting their mother's memory.

When it sensed Chen Ming, it instinctively sent out a group of Zergs in anger to hunt down the clues of Chen Ming.

Then it was what happened before.

At this point, Chen Ming also completely understood the whole picture of the matter.

He loosened his hand holding the ganglion.

He lowered his head slightly in thought.

The queen he controlled now was not the queen on the space station, but its offspring.

This means that he may still encounter the queen on the space station in the future, and the queen will still hold a strong hatred for Chen Ming.

Well...

It's not a big problem.

Chen Ming is not afraid of any enemy now.

And the universe is so big that it is a very small probability for him to encounter the offspring of the queen now.

The probability of encountering the queen in the future is almost zero.

Wait a minute, when Chen Ming thought of this low-probability event, he suddenly realized something.

Although there are differences between biological spaceships and ordinary spaceships, they are very similar in many places.

For example, they can rely on Chen Ming's psychic power to perform some special operations.

For example, transformation.

However, transformation of spacecraft requires Chen Ming to master the relevant technology.

And biological spacecraft...

"Hiss..."

"Did I just think yesterday that I don't need to study biotechnology in my life..."

At this moment, Chen Ming remembered what Lao Wu said some time ago that he was a bad mouth.

Then he thought of what he seemed to have said just now, that he would never meet the queen of the Thorn Zerg in his life.

Chen Ming was silent for a moment and decided that it would be better to talk less and do more in the future.

Start from now.

Chen Ming then opened the biological panel again.

Although he knew that biological spaceships could also be transformed, he just discovered it.

The transformation panel of biological spaceships seems to be a little different from that of ordinary spaceships.

The column for transformation options of ordinary spaceship components or the spaceship itself is [Available operations: repair/transformation/disassembly]

And the column for biomass spaceships is [Available operations: repair/evolution/decomposition/genetic backtracking]
