American Comics: Beginning with Luke the Maker

Chapter 205
SHIELD.

Tri-Wing Building.

"The test results are not optimistic, sir." Nick, who rushed back with the wounded and his hands, and watched the parasitized agents enter the testing room, heard a news that did not surprise him.

"Tell me." Nick's mood has stabilized now. The biggest threat, the octopus monster like a hill, has disappeared, and maybe it will be difficult to see him in the future.The impact of this crisis did not have time to spread, and it was wiped out in the bud.All that was lost was some manpower.

This is acceptable to Nick!Even if the sacrifice was greater, he was still willing to accept it.What's not to like?If they encounter this kind of monster without any preparation, and without Hyperion's superpower equipment, it is not unimaginable that they will be completely wiped out by that monster.No matter how many life-saving methods he has, he can't guarantee that he can really survive a disaster that is as destructive as a small disaster.

"There is a powerful consciousness in their bodies." Maria Hill handed over the test report.

"Spiritual pollution?" Nick looked at Agent Hill standing in front of him with one eye.

"Spiritual parasites." Agent Hill said with a serious face: "They still have all their own memories, have their own experience and knowledge, and if they just communicate with each other, they are not extremely familiar and extremely sensitive. In addition, you can't even detect any suspicious abnormalities in the other party's speech and behavior.

They're still the agents, but they're not the agents they used to be. "

At the end of the conversation, Agent Hill gave his own conclusion like a tongue twister.And Nick didn't have any deviations in her understanding of her conclusions.

"In other words, is it similar to the parasitism of the symbiont? But it is more serious." Nick immediately thought of another kind of alien creature in the universe - the symbiont!

The symbiont can also obtain the host's memory and ability through the parasitic host, and even influence the host's will and control his actions to some extent.

But symbionts have weaknesses. They are afraid of fire and sound waves, and they can use these weaknesses to drive them out of the host's body.In the absence of a host, the threat of symbionts will be greatly reduced if isolation measures are taken with any organisms!

And according to Luke's symbionts, most of the symbiont groups are relatively friendly. They prefer to choose some hosts with good character and a sense of justice for parasitism, and they have a set of parasitic principles themselves, which are regarded as They need to abide by the parasitic laws.This includes not being able to influence and control the actions of the host, doing things he doesn't want to do against his own will.

As for the problematic symbionts that came here?

It's just a bunch of outcasts breaking the laws of parasitism.After all, no matter which ethnic group, there will always be a group of people who are relatively difficult to control.

From the current point of view, the parasitism of the hive is obviously very invasive and controlling.This is a parasitic method that is clearly distinguished from symbionts.Nick didn't even know whether these hive parasites really needed their hosts to live.

"Yes, this kind of parasitism is more secretive and more difficult to detect. If it weren't for the fact that our equipment has been kept updated in the past few years, and some technologies provided by Heberen and the mage, we would like to detect abnormalities , I'm afraid it won't be easy." Agent Hill's eyes showed a lingering fear.

If not detected, will these parasites turn other people around into parasites?Can the parasites transformed into parasites parasitize more people?
At that time, is SHIELD still the original SHIELD?

Are these people still normal human beings?
Just by imagining it, Agent Hill can imagine the suffocating sense of panic.If it is extended to the entire social level, the trust between people and people may no longer exist, and the order will be shaky.

"How are they doing now?" Nick rubbed his forehead and asked suddenly.

"Very calm and honest, we quarantined them." Agent Hill understood who Nick asked about them and what the so-called status meant.

"Is there any way? I mean the method of isolating them from the parasites." Nick didn't report any hope: "What is the weakness of those parasites?"

"Surgical separation is possible, but the surgical requirements are high, and the success rate is not high. The supporting surgical equipment needs to be specially customized, and there is no guarantee that 100% eradication can be performed." Agent Hill reported. "As for the weakness, we haven't found a weakness for the time being. The reverse crystallization only makes those parasites a little inert, and they can't control the agents freely."

"What about the other agents? Everyone involved in the mission will also be tested, including me." Nick asked again.Those who didn't get caught were almost all elite agents wearing a spiritual ring. While that layer of energy clothing was used as an increase, it also isolated various dangers from the outside.In Luke's words, wearing an energy suit, you can even move in a vacuum universe without any protection for a while.

But out of caution, Nick is also willing to come to peace of mind.

"Yes, sir!" Agent Hill understood Nick's cautiousness, and even if she could, she would like to check all the agents working in the entire Tricurve Wing Building today.

……

"I smell a certain familiar smell from you." Luke, who returned to Heberon Laboratory from the data dimension of Silent City, was immediately attracted to a food-eating symbiont who came to beg for rations at a fixed time.

The quiet big head protruded from Gwen's shoulder, pulled it long, and sniffed around Luke up, down, left, and right, with suspicious eyes.

"What smell?" Facing the suspicious quiet, Luke was a little dazed.He just went to his own silent city.

"A smell of bugs I once ate." An Jing retracted her head, looking at Luke with a look full of eagerness: "You must have secretly created something delicious, right? Let me Come and let me come! I am willing to be your gold medal tester forever."

"Hive?" Luke thought for a while and gave a name.When he thought about it, among the insects he had come into contact with recently, it seemed that only beehives could be touched.

"Hive?" An Jing looked blank, "Is this the name of the new food you made? I don't care about it, I only care about whether it tastes good or not."

"What is the kind of bug you eat called?" Without getting an accurate answer from Quiet, Luke also realized that the two of them might not be talking about a type of bug.

"Brud! A kind of Zerg known as a natural disaster in the universe. It was first discovered by the biological science team of the Kerry Empire when they were exploring the collapsed dark matter flow. They named it [Brud] , they found that this is an extremely aggressive and highly adaptable bug population.

These bugs like to nest in the ruins of those destroyed universes.This environment that is fatal to other creatures is very comfortable for them, and the ability of the Bruder Zerg has parasitic characteristics, and our parasites are listed as the two largest races in the universe with parasitic characteristics.They can also absorb the host's memory and experience, and obtain a large amount of knowledge from the host's mind, and use it as food for evolution! "Quiet gave an answer without hesitation.

This is not a secret on the Klinta star where the symbiote is located, or the symbiote with a hive consciousness, almost all knowledge and important information are shared.

"Have you eaten?" Luke looked at An Jing with inexplicable eyes for a moment. Really, this strange symbiont can always give him a funny face when he thinks he knows her enough.And if you ask her about biological information or planetary information in the universe, she will also truthfully disclose it to you. Of course, when introducing the creatures in the universe: I think this is delicious. A very normal thing.Because she is really sharing her food and ingredients with you.At most, add a few more [cooks] who cook delicious food.

"One of my hosts has eaten it, rounding it up, it should be equal to me eating it?" An Jing blinked her big gray eyes, and said with some uncertainty.

"That host was my first host, a professional gourmet. Well, this is his own words. He took me to eat in several galaxies, and finally we had to escape to a very dangerous place.

It was there that I first met the Bruder Zerg.They sleep in an abandoned laboratory.My host recognized this fabled Zerg. "An Jing recalled with a look of nostalgia.

"You guys have such a good appetite." Although An Jing didn't continue, but thinking about her current personality, and thinking about the characteristics of the symbiosis that was greatly influenced by the first host, Luke can already imagine the next step. screen.As for the so-called professional gourmet that Jing Jing claimed, Luke also automatically changed to a crazy gourmet.

"Unfortunately, my host probably didn't know how to cook the Bruder Zerg properly at that time, so he felt a little unwell after eating it, and the bugs fought me in his body." Quietly Pity.

"Dead?" Luke and Gwen, who were listening to the story, were both startled.

"Of course I died from eating a bad stomach! He and I still have a lot of planned things that we haven't eaten." An Jing obviously had a great affection for his first host, "Later, I parasitized to a certain person who came to follow us. Cosmic agent. I controlled her to do some things she didn't like to do, but she couldn't resist me. So she was schizophrenic. One is the original consciousness, and the other is a person who is crazier than me. Crazy girls, you forced me to change from a cosmic gourmet to a cosmic wanted criminal, what a bad luck!"

Luke and Gwen were left speechless by the sudden turn of silence.

"The symbiont can indeed control the human body, but if the host resists, does it have the power to resist?" Gwen was a little skeptical.Quiet also rarely forcibly controls what she does when she is conscious, unless it is time to replenish rations.

"Yes." Jing Jing nodded and admitted.

"The other party?" Gwen was a little puzzled.

"I ate Brud! It has the characteristics of forcibly controlling and assimilating and influencing the host with a certain obsession." Jing Jing opened her mouth and smiled.

There is a faint thread in Luke's head that seems to be connected.

After part of the research on the hive, it can be seen from the extracted fragmented thoughts and memories that the other party was also the product of the experiment of the Cree at the earliest, and it was only after being abandoned by the Cree that it was feared and rejected by the same kind. Terrified, he tried to teleport him to a remote planet.

How did they manage to teleport the hive away when the technology was not as advanced as it is now?
What is the origin of the Black Stone Gate technology that can be used to teleport people?
Cree!
The only possibility is that the Cree who left at that time did not take all the items with them, and these technological products left behind were in the hands of aliens.And the distant star sent by the hive should also be the experimental planet of a Cree.

In the memory of the hive, during a certain period of time when he was in prison, some kind of terrible disaster happened to the distant star where he was!

"What's the name of the planet you went to?" Luke frowned and asked quietly.

"Which planet?" Quiet asked quickly.

"The one that saw the Bruder Zerg."

"I don't know. It's just a remote planet. The creatures on it are about to die out." An Jing said nonchalantly.

"So, you have seen creatures on it?" Luke keenly grasped a certain point in the quiet words.

"Should have seen it? A species similar to your octopus. There are not many of them." An Jing raised her head and thought about it seriously, because the time is too far away, her memory is already a little blurred.It's not something important.The reason why she can remember now is entirely because when she left, she felt a little regretful that she couldn't taste the thoughts of those octopus heads.

Well, Luke shrugged.

The natural disaster in the memory of the hive should most likely be caused by Jing Jing, her host, and the tracker.It may have also destroyed the sleeping system in the laboratory, causing some Bruder Zerg to slowly wake up from their sleeping.

After Quiet parasitized the tracker and left together, the awakened Bruder Zerg chose to parasitize on the surviving octopus head, combined with the original ability of the hive, and formed a more powerful hive evolution under the strong alliance .

This also explains why the reverse crystal has an outstanding effect on other aliens with alien genes, but its effect on the hive is somewhat unsatisfactory.Because the opponent is not a pure alien at all, but a new alien with the characteristics of the Bruder Zerg!
