Harmonic Battleship Hyperion

"Then why did you follow me out?"

Lin Yuan walked forward without looking back, and at the same time asked, "Abathur asked me for something, but he didn't let me take you with him."

Three ten minutes ago, Lin Yuan, who was learning martial arts with Fu Hua, suddenly sensed a familiar psionic energy. Although it didn't translate into exact words in his mind, it could be understood as an invitation.

And he also knows the owner of this psychic energy, it is Abathur... Judging from the king worm slowly drifting in the air, this guy should be connected directly through the psychic energy network.

As the saying goes, once born and twice familiar, after connecting to the psionic network of the Zerg through the device left by Dr. Stetman, he became familiar with the psionic energy that existed in this way again, so Lin Yuan did not What a fuss.

He did not choose to convert the psionic energy into a signal that can be received by human communication equipment, but directly connected to Lin Yuan himself through the king worm, and also sent this kind of "invitation"-like idea, which shows that Abathur must have something Things want to be discussed in private.

I have to say, this is a bit unusual...

So after a short thought, Lin Yuan still rejected Fu Hua's proposal to come together, and left the vicinity of the Hyperion directly.

But before he had gone far, he noticed someone following him lightly behind him.

"I want to know what you're doing..."

"Go see Abathur, okay, you can go back."

"Don't, people are boring in the base too."

The girl trotted around in front of Lin Yuan, and said with a flattering smile on her face, "Hey hey, besides, I really want to see what that fat worm wants to do, why not just take a look and go back?"

Because of the need to "sew up the wound" on the Hyperion, most of the systems on the ship were temporarily shut down, especially the meaningless dormitory areas and bars, so it is understandable that Kiana said she was boring.

Of course, Lin Yuan first needs to be excluded from the understandable crowd.

"Boring? Got it, then you and I will learn martial arts with Fu Hua in the future."

"Hey!? Not...that..."

"Why so surprised?"

Seeing the girl's frightened expression, Lin Yuan tilted his head strangely, "Since you will feel bored, why not find something meaningful to do?"

That's what I said, but... recalling the feeling of squatting for half an hour a few days ago, her legs were so sore that she couldn't stand up, Qiyana couldn't help shivering secretly.

"Ah, that's right! I think I'm more suitable to practice the stealth skills you mentioned Lin Yuan..."

"Fu Hua said that martial arts can also do that, so it's decided, and I will take classes with me when I go back."

In front of the stunned Qiyana, Lin Yuan patted her on the shoulder earnestly, and then continued to walk towards the sensed position.

Two minutes later, they stopped in a small depression on the edge of the ruins of the hatchery.

This is the place where Lin Yuan and Fu Hua witnessed the battle between the wild beast and the void tearer at close range for the first time. It was originally a secondary hatchery for the Charr swarm, and judging from the king worm wandering in the sky, Abathur may be planning to re-breed it.

Yes, cultivation, not construction, because most of the buildings of the Zerg are dominated by worker bees, and the biological tissues that are rapidly grown by fusing a large amount of biomass in the creep.

The place where the two are located seems to have been dug by tunnel worms, which is lower than the surrounding ground.

"Lin Yuan, what did that fat bug call you here for?"

"I don't know, but it shouldn't be for the swarm it lost."

Qiyana was silent for a while, and then quietly took half a step away to keep herself a little away... In this way, even if she is held accountable for a while, she can prove that she and Lin Yuan are not on the same side.

In fact, even Lin Yuan himself was very puzzled at the moment, and had no idea why Abathur wanted to see him alone.

Until... Abathur appeared in front of them...

That's right, when the ground suddenly shook slightly and the softer soil began to bulge upward, what appeared in front of Lin Yuan and Qiyana was not any kind of zerg they had seen before, but a slightly enlarged brain. Bloated, Abathur's main body with several pairs of slender arms...

"Wow!"

Qiyana screamed, and quickly dodged and hid behind Lin Yuan. She was not really afraid, but like most women, she had a natural fear of strange-shaped insects.

"Abbathur, you..."

"Human Linyuan, respond to the call, arrive on time, suitable for the target, and have a chance to answer the question of the organism Abathur."

doubt?Let me answer?

Lin Yuan opened his mouth, his eyes were a little dull, he didn't understand what the other party was up to.

Abathur's real body is even weirder than in the communication image. The cysts on the left and right sides are probably part of the brain. Among the several pairs of slender arms, only the shortest pair fits together In front of him, the others are naturally hanging to one side, and the mouth that can't be closed and the eyes that are so narrow that they can hardly see clearly completely subvert the common people's cognition.

Another point worth noting is that it has not completely drilled out of the ground, and its lower body is obviously still buried in the soil.

"What do you want to know?"

Abathur didn't answer at first, only opened and closed the short arms in front of him, and then he said something that made the two of them feel confused.

"Variation, evolution, sequence adjustment, fusion of essence, potential, until perfection... The swarm is absolutely persistent, absolutely obedient, and absolutely unified. Special individuals are allowed to exist, but their meaning is unknown, their purpose is unknown, they cannot be judged, they cannot be understood..."

"what do you want to say in the end?"

There was another strange silence.

Through a little psychic link, Lin Yuan could vaguely feel that there seemed to be a considerable degree of confusion in Abathur's mind, but it didn't seem like he had encountered some kind of problem.

"A special individual, the Zergling Louise, was bred by the Queen of Blades herself..."

"what? What!?"

Hearing this, Qiyana immediately jumped out from behind Lin Yuan, "You mean that mutated springtail has a name!?"

"Correct, and the gene sequence is independent of the swarm, cannot be copied, cannot be adjusted."

"Isn't that natural? There is nothing exactly the same in the world. Even if it can be copied, it is not the original one."

For some reason, Lin Yuan felt that Qiyana was in a strange mood when she said this... But if there is something wrong with it, it's hard to say.

As for Abathur, as soon as the girl finished speaking, it said in a tone without any emotion: "Cultivating creatures has low IQ, ignorance and dullness, and shallow knowledge."

"What did you say!?"

"Wait, don't be impulsive, Kiyana."

Lin Yuan quickly grabbed the girl who was a little bit fried, and also noticed the name Abathur used... Cultivating creatures?

Why breed organisms instead of humans?

At this moment, Abathur made a strange move.

Its body suddenly began to shake, and some kind of thick mucus began to be secreted from its body, which quickly solidified into a solid state.

In just a few seconds, a cocoon-like thing completely wrapped Abathur... But soon, the cocoon began to break, and strip-shaped pieces fell to the ground one after another.

And the figure that appeared from the inside of the cocoon made Lin Yuan and Qiyana completely stay in place as if the time stop button had been pressed.

Because this is no longer Abathur, but...another "Qiana".

In terms of height, body shape, and attire, it can be said that there is no difference between the figure in front of him and Qiyana except for the expression and skin color. Even the amount of hair may be exactly the same.

"Gene duplication, the basis of swarm evolution, and the difficulty of operation are not worth mentioning."

Even the voice is exactly the same as Kiyana, but without any emotion...

"You...you...who made you become Miss Ben!? Hurry...quickly change back for me!"

The girl waved her hands in a panic, as if she wanted to grab Abathur who had turned into herself, but she didn't dare to go forward, so she was very happy...but unfortunately, Abathur didn't want to pay attention at this time. she means.

"Human Lin Yuan, mentioned by the Queen of Blades many times, is extremely dangerous, and is suspected to be related to Louis the Zergling. Abathur, the organism, cannot make a judgment..."

"judge?"

Seeing Abathur who became Qiyana, Lin Yuan suddenly showed an inexplicable smile, and shook his head at the same time, "Why do you care so much about this kind of thing? A springtail cultivated by Sister Kerrigan made you feeling anxious?"

"That's not the case. The insect swarm system is highly unified, and the gene sequence has undergone countless adjustments and evolutions, and has become perfect... The existence of special individuals may make up for weak deficiencies, or cause harm to the insect swarm system."

Speaking of this, Lin Yuan basically understood what Abathur wanted to know.

As the "foundation" of the zerg ecosystem, this master of evolution dare not say that he has mastered all the gene sequences in the zerg, but at least it is far superior to all other zerg.

Even the Queen of Blades herself...

Therefore, when a special individual that he didn't understand appeared in the Zerg system, Abathur would definitely want to figure it out thoroughly, and use this to improve the Zerg swarm.

"So... you want to ask me what I know after dealing with it twice, right..."

After pulling the pouting Qiyana back to his side, Lin Yuan shook his head and said, "For the sake of helping Boss Renault, I can tell you one thing... and the only thing I can tell you .”

"Sister Kerrigan used to have a name, Sarah Louise Kerrigan, so I think... there are some things you may never understand, Abathur."

Chapter 83

Chapter 83

Sarah Louise Kerrigan.

In fact, Kerrigan did not tell Lin Yuan this name, and the two of them were not that close.

And with the existence of Phoenix, Kerrigan, who has become the Queen of Blades, is strictly speaking more like Lin Yuan's enemy, but considering the final entrustment of Raynor and Zeratul, she is determined to keep her.

The only person who can really make her tell the secret buried deep in her heart is Renault...and Renault is an alcoholic!

For an alcoholic who is immersed in guilt and self-blame, and often gets drunk in bars, carrying him back to his room to rest is basically a daily routine for Lin Yuan and Matt, and the two of them knew it through unconscious sleep talk. Such a name as "Louise".

But now, the Queen of Blades has given that name to a Zergling...

A very special, very intelligent, zergling unlike most zerg.

According to Abathur, the mutated springtail Louise is not only responsible for the evolution and genetic adjustment of Kerrigan herself, but also only obeys her orders. Down, above ten thousand insects.

Then, its existence is very intriguing: Kerrigan bred such a special individual, what is it for?

"Perhaps... to see if the Zerg can get 'freedom'?"

Freedom, in the civilization system of Zerg, this is a concept that basically does not exist.

After all, for a species that has removed most of the randomness from the genetic level and is infinitely close to absolute order, they may not even have the opportunity to think about what "freedom" is.

And when the Zerg really got "freedom", it would return to the level of a beast, and it could no longer be called a civilization.

But the mutated springtail Louise is an exception... Abathur has personally admitted that its way of thinking is completely different from the regular zerg, and it doesn't even have the most basic absolute loyalty, and it doesn't need to do anything for the swarm. thing.

It can be said that the springtail cultivated by Kerrigan has completely overturned the evolution master Abathur's cognition of the zerg.

"I don't know if I should tell the boss about this. If the zergling represents Miss Kerrigan's desire for freedom, then the boss will definitely find her desperately, and then try to get her from Zeratul. escaped from the prophesied fate."

Lin Yuan sighed, and then looked at the girl sitting beside him: "What do you think...Fu Hua?"

"Well... I think it's better to make up your own mind about this kind of thing, and Lin Yuan, don't you think the current situation is not suitable for talking about these things?"
