I'm not good at biology, don't lie to me

He held the tablet between the two of them, and clicked on the screen with one hand. The speed was so fast that He Feizhang only saw him click the "subject" button on the right side of the interface.

Immediately, a picture appeared on the tablet, what looked like a colored sketch of an animal he had never seen before.Zhou Fang pointed to the picture and said to him, "This animal is called Sickle Monkey, which is very similar to the marmoset we are more familiar with, but it is tens of thousands of times more dangerous than marmosets."

"This kind of animal really exists?" He Feizhang stared at the picture, pointed at its front paws and said in disbelief, "The front paws of the praying mantis, this is something you imagined."

Zhou Fang said: "The sickle monkey is a real species." Then he swiped his finger on the tablet, and there were indeed a few clear photos of the sickle monkey behind the hand-drawn manuscript. On the young girl's shoulders, two sickle-like front paws hang down around her neck, He Feizhang can't help but sweat for her.

"According to the analysis, the sickle monkey should be a herd animal and rarely acts alone. This is the only sickle monkey parasite we know that has successfully integrated with humans."

"I heard it right, right?" He Feizhang frowned, "This thing is called a parasitic beast?"

"Yes, it's a parasitic beast."

Zhou Fang's fingers continued to slide, and a slender and curved vine plant appeared on the tablet, with a diameter of more than one centimeter and a total length of only about one meter.When He Feizhang glanced over, he felt inexplicably familiar: "This time it became a plant?"

"This is a snake vine." He clicked on the spikes protruding from the small section of the vine in the picture, "It belongs to vines. Of course, it is also a very dangerous parasitic beast."

He Feizhang asked alertly: "What's your definition of a parasitic beast?" He was a little aware that he was touching an extraordinary field.

"Human parasites." Zhou Fang answered him directly: "In order to adapt to survive in this world, they choose the human body as a host. After a period of incubation, they start to stimulate fusion and compete with the host for the right to act. This incubation period is generally within three weeks. Once it's over, it's the official fusion period. If the fusion is successful, both the host and the parasite will survive."

He Feizhang looked at him unconsciously: "What if it fails?"

Zhou Fang smiled: "Do you know such creatures as zombie ants?"

"Uh, I've heard of it." A bad premonition welled up in his heart, and He Feizhang's voice was a little hoarse: "It seems to be a kind of, um, an ant with mushrooms on its head?"

Zhou Fang ignored his stiff tone and said, "That's right."

"Zombie ants are ants that are parasitized by a special fungus. This fungus will continue to grow in its body and control its behavior. Until it dies, it will look for an environment suitable for fungal growth as a grave before it dies .”

"This kind of zombie fungus usually parasitizes the brains of certain insects and directs the insects to serve them." Zhou Fang said: "I think you may have realized that the existence of parasitic beasts is very similar to zombie fungi."

"The host and the parasitic beast that failed to fuse will usually be strangled in the body. There are no more than two situations: the host wins, the parasitic beast becomes its subsidiary, and the host gains a small amount of ability. We usually call this kind of person [reserve] If the parasitic beast wins, the host will be brain-dead, and the parasitic beast will take over all his actions, which is [heterogeneous species].” Zhou Fang explained: “However, the host’s victory ratio only accounts for 20.00% three.”

He switched the tablet screen back to Sickle Monkey and the girl: "These two are examples of the successful fusion of the two. She is now a very powerful parasite."

"I don't quite understand." He Feizhang rubbed his forehead: "What does this have to do with me? Are you trying to say that I was parasitized?"

Zhou Fang didn't speak, just clicked to open a folder.He Feizhang looked up and found that it was his own information.

The first ones were all ordinary introductions such as the date of birth and family situation, but at the end, He Feizhang became more and more frightened.

[He Feizhang, male, [-] years old, a sophomore in the Foreign Language Department of Yanjing University in Z City. 】

[Family relationship: Father He Jishan, captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Z City.Mother is dead.His girlfriend, Bai Wei, is a student of the Liberal Arts College of Yanjing University in Z City.Girlfriend family (omitted) friends (omitted)]

[Attacked in City Z on the evening of July [-], [-]XXX, the host encountered a parasitic beast experiment and was parasitized, successfully fused with the parasitic beast. 】

[On July [-], [-]XXX, it was arrested and recovered by the Z City Branch of the AO Research Center. 】

[On July [-], [-]XXX, with my consent, I was going to undergo a parasitic separation operation. 】

[On July [-], [-]XXX, the operation failed, and the fusion degree of the host and the parasite reached [-]%. 】

[July [-], [-]XXX, entered into the "Parasite", number A[-].The parasite began to receive systematic knowledge learning, and was mentally stable and in good condition. 】

【shield.Permissions are locked. 】

He Feizhang looked at it several times, before raising his head after a while: "Is there any more?"

Zhou Fang nodded: "There are only so many A-level files open, and higher authority is required to read later."

"Can you read it?" He had an intuition that Zhou Fang could, and sure enough, Zhou Fang said: "Yes. But it involves some confidentiality. I'm sorry, but I can't let you see it right now."

He Feizhang breathed a sigh of relief: "I think so."

Immediately afterwards, he stared at Zhou Fang and changed the topic: "Then, what you and the doctor told me before, that I have delusional disorder and mental illness is actually false. Why do I have no memory of those two months?" ?”

He thought Zhou Fang would not answer easily, but he didn't expect Zhou Fang to answer very straightforwardly this time: "Because of the memory erasure operation."

He Feizhang: "Hypnotism?"

"No, hypnotism is just an ordinary psychological suggestion technique, and it is not strong." Zhou Fang said: "When encountering a more powerful performer, it will be invalid. The memory erasure operation is more perfect, and it is a real operation. , Accurately capture memory nodes. For example, you only erased two months of memory, and the rest are intact."

He said with a smile: "Surgery today, go to school tomorrow, I promise to forget all about it, and there will be no sequelae." But for the powerful parasites of grade A and above, it is really not safe enough.

No matter how complicated He Feizhang's mood was, he couldn't resist the black lines all over his face at this moment: my country's black technology has reached such a high level, why doesn't he feel happy at all, instead he feels a little tired.

"Amnestic erasure surgery will make you really lose a certain memory. This kind of surgery has many restrictions. The most important point is that it must be approved by the hospital and the person." Zhou Fang said: "Don't worry, the use of this technology is authorized. It has always been under the control of the Ministry of State Security, and all personnel involved in the operation have been recorded, and there is no black history. When you underwent the operation, you first consulted with yourself before proceeding.”

"So, as expected, I was also parasitized." He Feizhang read his file again, a little puzzled and said: "Then what is my situation now, and what is parasitizing me?"

"Well. Your current situation is more complicated. To be honest, I can't tell you these things." Zhou Fang thought for a while, and it seemed difficult to say: "I can only say that although you have passed the integration period, you have become a I killed a very powerful parasite, but was also seriously injured, and your parasite was forced to sleep after that serious injury."

He Feizhang showed a confused look.

Zhou Fang said: "The degree of fusion is too high. Even if you are seriously injured and dying, you can no longer be separated. It is still sleeping in your body, but you can't feel it."

"What is it?" Suddenly thought of something, he subconsciously touched the back of his neck, and said weakly, "Don't tell me what kind of insect or antennae plant it is..."

Seeing his hair standing on end, Zhou Fang sneered, "It's a small animal, not a bug."

He Feizhang was inexplicably relieved.

"Now that you already know what a parasite is, let's talk about the way of survival among parasites."

He Feizhang was at a loss: "Huh?"

Zhou Fang adjusted the tablet screen again, and called up a picture to show He Feizhang.

The title on the picture is "Classification of Parasitic Beasts". He Feizhang roughly scanned it, and felt that it was a bit similar to the BOSS strength divided when playing games.

It is nothing more than a few letters of SABCDEF, S is the strongest and F is the weakest.

"Currently, there are a total of 250 known parasitic beasts in the world. These parasitic beasts will not only find suitable hosts, but also perceive each other." Seeing him watching carefully, Zhou Fang clicked on the screen [ Statistical table of parasitic beast levels], said: "Just like humans sometimes have a sense of companions with similar characteristics to themselves, there is also this kind of magnetic field among parasitic beasts. However, they are more for hunting .”

He Feizhang was thoughtful: "You mean, these things have a radar-like effect and can locate each other. Can they also use this to communicate?"

Zhou Fang said: "There is a scope, and the communication between parasitic beasts is not as friendly as you think."

"so?"

"They will be suppressed according to the level, devour each other, and seize power."

"Your level was A before." Zhou Fang pointed to the level table and He Feizhang saw that there were S and SS in front of it. Zhou Fang said again: "But your parasitic beast has fallen into dormancy. People are better at it."

Zhou Fang: "Do you know why I told you this?"

He Feizhang frowned, looked at him and said, "You mean, there will be other parasitic beasts coming to trouble me?"

Zhou Fang said: "Already have."

He Feizhang: "..."

"The man in the swimming pool yesterday was a host whose fusion failed." Zhou Fang picked up the tablet and showed it to him. Sure enough, there was the man's profile on the screen, and there were a few death photos at the end.

One of the photos had a special comment on the back of the man's neck. He Feizhang pointed and asked, "What is this wound?"

Zhou Fang glanced at it: "The wound caused by the parasitic beast fleeing, he was parasitized by a snake vine before,"

Snake vine, Zhou Fang just told him about it.

Sure enough, this person would not casually tell him unnecessary information.He Feizhang felt that he could somewhat understand Zhou Fang's behavior style.

He seems gentle and has no temper, and is trustworthy as a good old man. In fact, his nature may be very bad, and he doesn't need to draft a lie.
