Wasteland Survival Code

Chapter 631 The Hotbed of Incubation

The venom of the blood-sucking mosquito is a good thing, and it has a good effect on dealing with some high-level mutant creatures such as death claws. However, this kind of thing is difficult for players to collect.

There is no other reason. The essence of this toxin is a kind of protease. After the blood-sucking mosquito dies, this protease will be quickly inactivated and become a non-toxic substance. If you want to extract the venom of the blood-sucking mosquito, you can only After capturing blood-sucking mosquitoes alive, they are sent to the laboratory, which can only be done under harsh conditions.

Besides the venom, there is nothing valuable on the blood-sucking mosquito.

This is also one of the reasons why players hate blood-sucking mosquitoes the most - this kind of insect is not only difficult to deal with, but even after spending a lot of effort and time to kill it, there is no loot to be obtained, and even for some unknown reason, These blood-sucking mosquitoes will not even burst out the mutated serum.

For this point, the mastermind did not give a detailed explanation, but some biologists came to a conclusion.

That is, blood-sucking mosquitoes live by sucking the blood of other mutated creatures or humans. Their food is huge and diverse. A large amount of foreign DNA will be mixed into its own gene fragments.

Since the genetic structure of the blood-sucking mosquito itself is relatively complete, these foreign DNA will not bring much change to the blood-sucking mosquito. However, when people want to extract mutated serum from the blood-sucking mosquito, these foreign DNA will become a blood-sucking mosquito. Problems that cannot be ignored.

No one knows whether the blood-sucking mosquito sucked the body fluid of a worm or the blood of a deathclaw, so no one can be sure what biological DNA is contained in the blood-sucking mosquito's mutated serum. In fact, the generation of each blood-sucking mosquito serum needs to consume a large amount of computing resources of the main brain. Although for the main brain itself, this amount of calculation is only a drop in the bucket, but it cannot withstand the qualitative change caused by the quantitative change. A large amount of redundant data is very important for the main brain It is also a burden that cannot be ignored. Therefore, the main brain felt that it directly canceled the serum drop of the blood-sucking mosquito, a mutant creature.

Not only the blood-sucking mosquitoes in Luminous Sea, but also creatures similar to blood-sucking mosquitoes in other places on the wasteland will not drop mutated serum either.

Although there is a suspicion of cutting corners, the players are helpless, and on the other hand, even if there is a blood-sucking mosquito serum, no one is willing to absorb this kind of heterogeneous gene-the blood-sucking mosquito itself is only an elite A super mutant creature, but who knows if there will be a gene fragment of Alpha Deathclaw hidden in its serum?
If a low-level evolutionary absorbs this serum, 100% will cause gene collapse and death.

And even if there are no high-level gene fragments in the serum of mosquitoes, due to too many impurities, the success rate of fusion is not much higher. To put it bluntly, the serum of this creature is almost like chicken ribs-tasteless to eat, it is a pity to discard .

……

Qi Lin had just dealt with these blood-sucking mosquitoes, when suddenly there was a buzzing sound approaching him quickly. When he looked back, he saw another group of blood-sucking mosquitoes chasing him.

"I'm so annoying, why are there so many mosquitoes...Could it be...Damn it, I forgot to deal with that Deathclaw's corpse!"

Qi Lin smashed the fastest flying blood-sucking mosquito with a knife, and suddenly found that the wing membrane of this blood-sucking mosquito was almost transparent, which indicated that this blood-sucking mosquito had just completed its transformation.

The longer it takes for the blood-sucking mosquito to complete its metamorphosis, the darker the color of its wing membrane will be. And the group of blood-sucking mosquitoes in front of it are almost all newborn individuals with transparent wings.

Qi Lin immediately realized the problem.

The corpse of that deathclaw... is the source of hatching these blood-sucking mosquitoes!

After sucking the blood of the prey, the blood-sucking mosquito will lay its own eggs into the corpse of the prey. After the eggs are hatched, the larvae will use the corpse of the prey as food, and the speed of larval development is It is determined by the quality of the food.

If a deathclaw is used as a breeding ground for development, the larvae of the blood-sucking mosquito will only need a short period of time to get rid of the juvenile stage and complete the metamorphosis.

And when Qi Lin passed by the deathclaw just now, the corpse of the deathclaw probably had only an empty shell left. The reason why Qi Lin didn't notice any movement inside the corpse was because the larvae happened to be there. Pupation stage——

And now, they have emerged from their pupae.

The buzzing gradually became louder, and at some point, Qi Lin was surrounded by hundreds of blood-sucking mosquitoes.

"I wanted to save some energy..."

Qi Lin shook his head helplessly, and turned on the energy shield.

The story of an ant killing an elephant is not just a story. If Qi Lin used only a bone blade to fight these more than 100 blood-sucking mosquitoes, although the odds of winning are still not low, but in case of negligence, he will be bitten by a blood-sucking mosquito If so, I am afraid that his chance of resurrection will be explained here.

The toxin of the blood-sucking mosquito can't even withstand the deathclaw, let alone a human like him whose toxin resistance is not as good as the deathclaw.

When dealing with swarms of blood-sucking mosquitoes, the best weapons are flamethrowers and burst shotguns, but for Qi Lin, as long as he has an energy shield, it is enough.

Two blood-sucking mosquitoes rushed to Qi Lin quickly, but before they could penetrate Qi Lin's body with their spear-like mouthparts, the two blood-sucking mosquitoes instantly turned into a fireball and fell to the ground .

The energy shield itself also has the ability to attack, and its effect is somewhat similar to the equipment in two very famous games in the old days - the "Sunflame Cloak" in "League of Legends" and the "Glory" in "DotA", Although the damage wasn't high, it was enough to deal with the fragile blood-sucking mosquitoes.

Qi Lin turned on the energy shield and ran amok in the mosquito pile. After a while, more than half of the mosquitoes were all turned into coke on the ground, and the air was filled with a unique smell of burnt protein.

When there were only twenty or thirty blood-sucking mosquitoes left in this group, they finally chose to give up, rose to a height of tens of meters, and flew away towards the depths of the glowing sea.

"It's finally over..." Qi Lin let out a breath, and turned off the energy shield. In the past few minutes, the energy shield consumed a tenth of the energy in the energy-gathering vortex.

On Qi Lin's Wednesday, there were scorched black mosquito remains scattered all over the place, among them were a few individuals one size larger than ordinary blood-sucking mosquitoes, which were F-class albino blood-sucking mosquitoes, which belonged to the alienated species among blood-sucking mosquitoes. It was faster and more toxic than ordinary mosquitoes—however, after turning into coke, albino blood-sucking mosquitoes were no different from ordinary mosquitoes except that their bodies were slightly larger.
