Bug Rescue Team

Not long after Lu Tong went offline, Ian began to receive genetic maps of insects from Planet Aquamarine.

He read them carefully one by one, and even printed out some of them without wasting resources... When Constantine reminded him to eat on time, he was lying motionless on the ground, surrounded by torn drawings.

Constantine asked: "The insects on Aquamarine are not the same as the Zerg, are they?"

Ian was silent for a while before saying, "It's not a genetic problem."

"What's the problem?"

"What is spiritual power?" Without waiting for Constantine to answer, he continued, "The Zerg are not born with spiritual power, but only after having spiritual power can the Zerg come into existence. So where does the initial spiritual power come from?"

"I believe that there is a higher-level civilization, and the Zerg are just the test subjects of this civilization..."

Constantine quickly understood what he wanted to express and said: "I understand what you mean, just like we have implanted chips into animals and used them to monitor their living habits and so on."

"The spiritual power of the Zerg may come from a higher civilization and belong to an existence that we cannot understand, but this does not affect your next work, does it?"

Ian snorted disdainfully, "If you just use mental power to edit different types of creatures into Zerg, anyone can do this kind of thing."

If there is anyone in the world who understands Ian, it must be Constantine, "Do you want to study spiritual power?"

"I want to study the fifth moon."

The old housekeeper supports Ian, but when it comes to researching the fifth Yue, he can only say that he is powerless.

"What is the difference between Fifth Yue and other Zerg races?"

Ian: "Let's talk about the Zerg Queen first. I suspect that her brain is spiritual power, a power from a more advanced civilization. The Zerg are good at editing genes, but the first condition is that the edited creatures must have the Zerg neural network, because Only in this way will they be unconditionally loyal to the Queen."

"The fifth Yue's body is that of the Zerg, but her brain is human, and her mental power is parasitic in her brain. This is different from previous Zerg queens. Why?"

Constantine: "Is this your speculation, or is it fact?"

"Speculation."

"So if you want to study the fifth Yue, you should know that this is impossible."

"No, this is not impossible. I have mental power and a human brain. I can start to study whether human genes can survive without the Zerg neural network after being edited."

"Those are you going to use?" The "those" Constantine said were referring to the embryos carried on board the Pioneer spacecraft.

Ian nodded and said that the focus of his next work would be to start with human embryos.

Constantine has no objection to this. This is not the first time that Ian has experimented on humans. Compared with his past experiences, Ian should be grateful that it is daytime here, and there are no moral constraints or human shackles here.

Ian knew that Constantine would support him, and couldn't help but sigh: "They say humans are products designed by gods. I really want to know, can humans kill gods?"

Constantine pondered for a while and said: "Your words remind me of the Four-Eyed Star people. They trained the body of 1001, but I don't know if they know that the body has self-awareness. The Four-Eyed Star people have no idea about the body. Tell me, is it considered a god-like existence?"

"If one day, 1001 returns to the Four-Eyed Star, will he kill the gods if the interests of those who developed and trained him are related?"

After saying this, he suddenly said with emotion: "For hundreds of years, we have been huddled on a small planet and have never truly set foot in the universe... It was you who allowed me to step out of Planet Aquamarine in my lifetime and see the grand and mysterious side of the universe. It’s you who allowed me to experience a whole new form of life…Thank you, Ian!”

After saying this, Constantine did not forget to bend down and salute. In his eyes, Ian is an eternal noble, the master he swears to be loyal to, and the only person worthy of his salute.

Ian has lacked reverence for life since he was a child, and those experiments that are criticized by morality are an indispensable part of getting closer to the truth of life.

He was called a lunatic and was imprisoned for this. But he still wants to study human beings and want to know whether such beautiful life forms are the choice of nature or the handiwork of God.

……

The fifth day Yue left Bairi, she still kept time. As the journey continued to lengthen, she gradually lost the concept of time. The bleak universe would only bring boredom and fatigue. If it weren't for the fact that she was getting closer to her goal, she would have given up on this lonely journey.

Before going on the road, she considered carrying gray chips so that she could get timely replenishment when she lacked energy. When she took off, she felt that the look of a bug carrying a backpack was too stupid, so she had to carry it in her abdominal cavity honestly so that she could consume it on her own if she ran out of energy.

After flying away from the galaxy, she found that her speed would increase every time she consumed herself... As she saw that she was getting closer and closer to the target, her abdominal cavity was also consumed, and her abdominal cavity, which was as huge as the queen ant, returned to normal.

Fifth Yue had a lot of imagination about the ethnic group left behind by the queen, but her imagination was too poor. When the target was clearly visible, just like when she saw Qijiao, she was shocked again and shouted, "Fuck!"

The Queen actually left a starship here, the size of which is comparable to a slightly smaller planet.

The starship is in the shape of a "ten", and its gray-black hull blends perfectly into the universe. The entire starship is full of mechanical beauty. The slightly rough style and cold metal demonstrate the power to conquer everything.

Where was this starship stolen from? It actually made the Zerg bunch of idiots hold back their food... As for whether it was a starship made by the Zerg? All we can say is that if the Zerg can build starships, what else can there be about other creatures in the universe.

While she was complaining that the Zerg were all stupid, she realized that she couldn't fly a starship, so she seemed to be stupid too?

The question is, the Queen definitely doesn’t know how to fly a starship. Why is she putting a starship here?

Fifth Yue scanned the starship with her mental power with doubts, and found that there was indeed a similar kind on it, and its appearance was even more deceptive than the seven-legged one.

Let's put it this way, if she didn't scan it, she wouldn't have been able to find it. A transparent jelly-like bug spread out like a flatbread and covered the starship. This is simply like darkness under the lamp.

Slime can also become an insect! This understanding is a bit subversive, but it is still within the scope of understanding. According to the Queen's memory, as long as the mental power is strong enough, any creature can be transformed into an insect.

Ian believes that mental power is not owned by the Zerg, and this is the reason. There are so many bugs, why is it that only one bug has spiritual power, while the others can only accept passive transformation? Mental power cannot be inherited through genes, but can only be passed on passively. Why?

For example: If a female ant hatches from the ant queen on Planet Aquamarine, and the territory is limited, the queen will secrete a chemical substance to prevent the female ant larvae from developing into real female ants, but instead Become worker ants. Once this restriction disappears, the female ant will develop rapidly. Whichever worker ant develops into a real female ant first will become the new queen ant.

The population structure of Zerg is similar to that of ants, but the production of the queen is more than just hatching. Instead, the previous queen used gene editing to create different types of insect soldiers. These insect soldiers fight each other, and only those who survive in the end may receive the inheritance of spiritual power and become the new Queen of the Insects. If you just win in battles and lack the inheritance of spiritual power, you won't be able to become a queen.

While mental power has become a necessity for the Zerg Queen, mental power can only be inherited and cannot be inherited through genes. Can we think that the spiritual power does not belong to the Zerg, but some kind of external energy. This kind of external energy can only be passed on from one generation to the next after certain conditions are met?
