Zerg in the crystal wall world

Blaneyton, hub world.

Circle Council.

Although the insect swarm invasion has become more and more serious, there are still not many vacancies here at this time.

A group of magical phantoms were arguing fiercely.

"The great transfer must begin as soon as possible, and the restart of the secret tower is imperative." Some council members mentioned, "Blenidon must not decline. We must maintain as much strength as possible during this natural disaster."

"No, the insect plague is too weird. Once the secret tower is restarted, we will be unable to contain the expansion of the plague." Someone immediately retorted.

"Only those who are absolutely healthy can be transferred." He argued with reason.

"How to tell?"

Zerg viruses tailored for specific groups of people will not cause the target's immune response at all, including fever, chills, throat and nose discomfort... none of these. If the King Insect pays attention, even the drowsiness and nightmares caused by the link to the Hive Mind will not appear. They simply cannot tell the difference between ordinary people and virus carriers.

Moreover, after the carrier leaves the cluster of infected individuals, the virus will automatically activate "pendulum sleep" and obtain a completely random incubation period.

“There’s nothing wrong with asking questions, what we have to do now is solve them!”

"But you are creating problems. All people with insufficient protection are high-risk." Someone said bluntly, "The end of the adventure may be nothing..."

Yes, what is in dispute in Parliament at this time is not war matters.

But to escape, and when escaping, should you take civilians with you...

As a large and populous clan, of course not all the clan members would be concentrated in one world. The Bryneton world group is just their birthplace and home base.

What's more, the ruling model of the aristocracy inevitably involves branching off, changing surnames, etc. For example, the Glenpatch family, the Hechitlin family, the Ravenfindor family... were all branches that originally split from Blaineton.

They have many options for retreat. Even now, the real bodies of many councilors here have left the Bryneton World Group.

But if we want to evacuate people on a large scale, the key is to restart the "Secret Tower Express".

That is, the cross-world transportation network established by Blaineton in the Elemental Realm. In the early days of the plague, operations were forced to stop due to martial law in various worlds.

And just as the quarrel became more intense.

A shadow that had been offline for a long time appeared in the Circle Council.

Someone noticed her immediately: "Congressman Elsa, have you finally calmed down?"

Elsa did not respond to him, but spoke directly: "I have a proposal regarding the Secret Tower Express."

"We haven't decided whether to enable it yet, don't use it as a premise." Someone immediately pointed out the problem.

Elsa couldn't deny: "The main contradiction in launching the Secret Tower Express now is that we can't be sure whether the refugees will carry the plague?"

"Yes."

"Then it will be assumed that everyone is infected, and everyone will be frozen and transported." Elsa said firmly, "Ice crystals can isolate the spread of all plagues."

"But the problem has not been solved. We still have no way of knowing whether the evacuated individuals are carrying the plague."

Elsa seemed to have a clue, and immediately replied: "Let the astrologers judge after the influence of the blood moon has passed."

"It is indeed a solution." Someone nodded.

It is true that there are not many reliable astrologers, but at the very least, it would take thousands of years to fully thaw, which is better than losing all.

"The cost is too high." Some members still objected.

Even in a different world, with magic and soul assistance, freezing the human body is very difficult.

"Just transfer pure blood." Elsa said.

Bryneton's elemental affinity determines that even if the cryonics procedure is not so strict, or even if it is frozen under natural conditions, it is possible to survive.

"This is not your style, Elsa." A congressman suddenly said.

Although Elsa is known as the Snow Queen, her governing philosophy is quite soft and she also values ​​the rights of mixed-races.

Before Elsa could respond, someone spoke: "I heard that Councilor Elsa's descendant was also involved in the blood potion incident."

Hearing this, all the council members understood.

Some people even advised: "There is no need to worry about blood relatives. In a hundred years, you will know how many descendants you want."

"I don't care about you." Elsa's attitude was still cold, "Time is limited, let's vote..."

At the same time, Shuaiqiu turned his attention to the Snowy Owl World at the edge of the Blaineton World Group.

This is a third-level world with hanging edges.

The former magic experiments and the blood moon interacted with each other, breaking the balance of elements here. The barrier between the water elemental world and the material world was broken, turning it into an ice sheet. When the polar storm rages, the lowest temperature can even reach minus two hundred degrees.

Even frost trolls have difficulty reproducing here.

Also because this world is hanging in the air, it really has no strategic value to the enemy. After the accident, all people here were evacuated. The swarm was able to take over the place without any trouble. As an evolutionary world directly under Handsome Football.

It is different from the insect nest world that is a fortress and production base, and it is also different from the mutant world that is used to produce new essences.

The significance of the existence of the evolutionary world is to cultivate new units and specialize some arms through the selection of extreme environments.

According to the normal process, new essence is produced from the mutant world; sent to the evolution chamber for deployment at the gene chain and organ level to form technology or arms; and then sent to the evolutionary world or frontline battlefield for mass production and screening.

Finally, the formed essence will be put into various insect hive worlds to iteratively reserve troops.

The insect nest here, from the carpet to the hatchery, is highly resistant to low temperature and frost environments.

And Shuaiqiu's attention was focused on the abyss of infection.

Here, a new type of group attack unit is cultivated: the ice worm.

Its prototype is a small magical beast named an ice worm, and it is also the only multicellular animal here that can reproduce stably.

Its "black body mucosa" can insulate low temperatures and ensure internal temperature.

With seven times the amount of adenosine triphosphate as ordinary creatures, it can spit out mucus that dissolves solid ice and gain the ability to move within ice.

Under the transformation of the insect swarm. Their body size has been further reduced. In addition to their resistance to low temperatures, their digestion, reproduction, and nervous systems have all been changed beyond recognition.

They have become a kind of parasite specialized in infecting low-temperature monsters.

With further analysis of the genes related to the Brood Lord, the technology of "Immune Warming Nest" was unlocked. The parasite can cooperate with the virus and transform the host's spleen, thymus, tonsils... and other organs to serve as nests for reproduction.

Of course, because of the contaminating properties of viruses on genes. It plays an absolutely central role in the infection process. To a certain extent, the bacteria, fungal spores, and parasites in the zerg are all auxiliary life forms for viral infection.

After parasitizing the host, the iceworm can dissolve itself and temporarily impart activity to surrounding tissues, allowing viruses that invade at the same time to insert the low-temperature active genes of the zerg in time...

With the cooperation of parasites and viruses, infection can be completed even if the host is frozen.

brush--

Under Shuai Qiu's application for the throne, an infected person who specialized in producing ice worms disappeared from the infected abyss...
