Seize Genes

? There is a small valley near here.

The valley did not originally exist, and there were no hills nearby in the past, but at some point a sinkhole appeared. After a strong nuclear explosion occurred near the old site of Jerusalem City some time ago, the ground here collapsed, forming a strange small valley.

There is no vegetation in the valley, but there are many low woods growing outside the valley.

What's strange is that there is often a light mist here, and the evaporation of underground water vapor is a bit exaggerated, but it is covered by vegetation, creating this wonderful scene.

Gao Shou's incarnation now looks like a tall, thin Westerner with color-changing contact lenses on his eyes. He looks no different from an ordinary Western European.

He was holding a strange crystal in his hand, about thirty centimeters long, with a hexagonal shape in the middle, six trapezoidal sides cut obliquely on both sides, and the two most sides were regular hexagons.

The translucent crystal is like artificial blue crystal, but much heavier. There is a small coffin inside. The crystal coffin is only about ten centimeters long. It is translucent and hazy, a bit like water glass, but it can be vaguely seen. to the corpse hidden in the coffin.

The body was about eight centimeters long, with long golden hair, fair skin, and handsome appearance, but it was not easy to distinguish between male and female.

The corpse was lying peacefully in the coffin, with its eyes closed, as if sleeping. It was wearing a white robe made of gauze-like material, with the fingers of its hands crossed on its chest, and two pairs of white wings on its back. .

It is not a phantom formed by light nanobots or other things, but real wings, but every feather is as white as the most beautiful white jade, and it also exudes a hazy white light.

There is also a strange-shaped golden mark on this person's forehead, which looks like two small wings spread out at an angle of 120 degrees. In the upper middle is a small dot mark that looks like a heart or a diamond. It also looks a bit like an upside-down droplet.

This person was silent and motionless, with no breathing or energy fluctuations. He looked like he was dead.

"This thing is indeed here... It's no wonder we put so much effort into it..." Gao Shou's incarnation smiled happily. The sound also changed a bit at this time. It's a little different from the original Gao Shou's voice.

A female voice that looked a bit like Yu Wen came from the side: "Are you sure this is it?"

"That's right." Gaoshou's incarnation nodded: "I have searched the documents of the people on earth, and the 'Contract of the Lord' recorded in some secretly inherited sects is this thing. It serves as a witness to the contract between God and mortals. It will no longer be destroyed. witness to the world.

"You and I also had people secretly check information about the 'extraterrestrial' world.

The model of the biochemical warship under the ice was also found. It was a failed imitation of the puppet warship made by the gods. It was born 65 million years ago, but it is almost as good as the highest technology in the galaxy today.

"But it also disappeared mysteriously 65 million years ago, and its whereabouts are unknown. Some people say it disappeared and was suspected of heading to the solar system. Someone found this battleship 18,000 years ago and appeared in the Milky Way, causing a sensation. Later, it mysteriously disappeared Missing, the missing position is still close to the direction of the solar system here.

"Coupled with other information and various inferences, the battleship we discovered in Antarctica is most likely the one in the record."

As soon as Gao Shou's incarnation fell, a sudden voice came from nearby: "I see... So, the corpse inside this crystal is most likely the key to unlocking the 'Interstellar Biochemical Warship' under the Antarctic ice, and it is not an unknown thing at all. Fantastic plant juice, right?”

"That's right, we have already had the juice from that plant..." Gao Shou's incarnation was about to answer. Halfway through, he suddenly turned around in horror and stared at a figure who shouldn't be in this place at all: "Zhan Fei?!!!"

The incarnation of Zhan Fei. I don't know when he stood quietly nearby, but he succeeded in temporarily getting rid of the entanglement of those angels and came here.

"You...why are you here?" Gao Shou's incarnation and Yu Wen's incarnation asked in horror. Some of the following bionics quickly raised their weapons. The style looked very sci-fi, but the power was guaranteed. It's very science fiction, not the kind of stuff sold on the street to trick children.

But Zhan Fei just smiled slightly: "At this time, instead of worrying about why I am here, you should worry about when the angel will chase me."

As soon as the words fell. I heard rumbling thunder, but it was the sound caused by someone flying at high speed and breaking the sound barrier. Then the fierce wind surged, and several angels suddenly appeared in the mid-air here.

The weapons in the hands of the biochemical people quickly pointed toward the sky, and black warheads flew out one after another. They were not lasers. The loss in the atmosphere was too great, and they were not ordinary warheads. They were made of unknown materials. In the emergency, Strong ultrasonic waves were emitted from the spin, and the speed was so fast that an angel couldn't dodge it, so he slapped it with his hand, and his palm was pierced.

The angels were angry, their bodies swayed, and they fell down instantly. Within a small range, they had the ability to change directions at close to the speed of sound. In a few seconds, they swept away all the biochemical people and turned them into ashes. The corpses and weapons fell into their hands.

Gao Shou's incarnation and Yu Wen's incarnation were about to flee, but they found that the angels had already settled down, led by a black-haired woman. Four wings of light flapped slightly, and dots of light spread into the air, covering a hundred meters radius. Her mind-controlled nanorobot distribution - although it cannot directly produce powerful power, it has various wonderful uses.

Within this range, no one's actions could hide from her perception.

"Now, can you put down that crystal?" The four-winged black-haired female angel stared at Gaoshou's incarnation and Yu Wen's incarnation.

The two smiled bitterly.

On the main body side, they communicated nervously, but couldn't think of a good solution for a while.

Therefore, the incarnation can only delay for now.

Gao Shou's incarnation held the crystal tightly, turned to Xiang Zhanfei's incarnation, and said, "I don't understand why you were able to discover our plan and successfully find us?"

Zhan Fei's avatar grinned: "Is this my secret?"

Yu Wen said: "Even if you discovered our plan, how did you know we were here?" She also wanted to delay time for the main body to find a solution, so she talked to Zhan Fei's incarnation.

Unexpectedly, the black-haired female angel also turned to look at Zhan Fei's incarnation and said, "I am also quite curious."

Zhan Fei's avatar smiled slightly: "There's nothing surprising. I was just suspicious before. I thought it was strange... They were so easy to talk to. With such huge interests involved, how could these people let me get a piece of the pie so easily? It doesn't feel right no matter how you think about it. . And as one of the top nobles in the galaxy, even the rulers of other planets that are hundreds of times more prosperous than the earth will not be looked down upon by them. Even if they are temporarily reduced to the earth, their arrogance still exists. Treat me like a native of the earth as an equal? ​​Even if you are polite on the surface, there is still arrogance deep inside. You are taking advantage of me more than cooperating with me.

"I'm not sure they were playing tricks, but they had to do it, so they used some small tricks."

Yu Wen's avatar had a stern face and said: "Even if you doubt us, so what? How can you track us without being discovered by us?"

Just like people nowadays travel back to ancient times, armed with all kinds of knowledge and advanced instruments, they can completely treat the ancients as bumpkins. The same goes for Yu Wen and other galactic nobles. They don't believe that Zhan Fei's technology will surpass them.

Zhan Fei just smiled and said: "I didn't use any special techniques, it's just... everything was a gift from 'Slime'."

"Slime?" Yu Wen was a little confused.

"It seems to be a very low-level life? It appears in some childish video games on Earth." Gao Shou's incarnation also looked suspicious.

But Zhan Fei didn't mean to explain at all.

His real secret is that he has an "All Race Gene Modifier" in his body.

Of course, the thing was asleep and couldn't help him now. But before falling asleep. But he successfully transformed Zhan Fei, giving him slime genes. Moreover, he inherited the ability of "infinite evolution".

This ability is due to Zhanfei's selection during the evolutionary process. It became weaker, but for some reason, it popped up again later.

Therefore, when he came into contact with the blood of the Fire Phoenix, Zhan Fei obtained part of the Fire Phoenix's genes and transformed some of his own cells. If it comes into contact with other genes, it can still devour them and extract the genes that are beneficial to itself.

This is a very magical ability to devour other genes. This is common with fusions of other genes. Relatively rare, but nothing strange. The birth of offspring between a normal biological female and a male is a process of mutual fusion of genes. It is just a matter of more or less fusion. The large-scale fusion of two very different genes does not exist among advanced life forms on the earth, but it is not uncommon in the world of particularly low-level organisms. Moreover, this ability may not be as good as imagined. The greater the difference in fusion, the greater the mutation. Mutation may not be a good thing - for example, nuclear radiation can cause genetic mutations in the body, and cancer can also cause internal changes in some cells. Genetic changes.

Blind and random devouring and fusion is a very dangerous thing. There are too many variables, and more than 99% of the consequences are bad.

But Zhan Fei here can automatically distinguish between good and bad, whether it is beneficial to him or not. This ability is particularly special and very useful. It is completely possible for people to experience the evolution of a race that takes an extremely long time to complete in a short period of time. In nature, it takes a long time and the test and selection of the real environment to know which genes are truly useful for the evolution of one's race. This change is extremely slow, but Zhan Fei has accelerated it countless times.

Perhaps only when the "All Race Gene Modifier" was revived could he know what caused this mutation.

However, just because he doesn't know the reason doesn't mean Zhan Fei can't take advantage of it.

For example, he can use these abilities to help Luo Wan accelerate his evolution, or... he can try to divide some of his own cells, devour and fuse genes from some ants and fleas, and use his own cells to evolve and split into fleas and ants. , and make the structure inside a little different from ordinary flea ants.

Then, let your own thought-controlled nanorobots enter the bodies of these little beings, and make those little beings perform various actions by indirectly controlling nerves and so on. To put it simply... it is to control small things like fleas and ants to become another "incarnation" of Zhan Fei.

It cannot do anything too complex, nor can it accept commands that are too complex. It is even similar to ordinary ants and fleas. The difference is that mind-controlled nanorobots can use various stimulations to make these little beings particularly "fascinated" or "hate" something. For example, when they are close to something, their bodies will secrete certain hormones that make them feel comfortable, and when they approach another thing or leave something, they will secrete certain hormones that make them feel uneasy. The content is so low that it can be handled by mind-controlled nanorobots.

Let fleas take an interest in someone's shoes or hair or trouser legs and stay there. Then the mind-controlled nanorobots are hidden in the bodies of these things and send messages to Zhan Fei remotely.

That kind of "signal repeater" the size of a "sesame seed" can transmit information. Zhan Fei's mind-controlled nanorobot can do the same. That kind of signal repeater can transmit information to a relatively long distance. Zhanfei's mind-controlled nanorobot only needs to place a few flea ants every tens or hundreds of meters.

This little thing can convey very little information, but it is enough to monitor the activities of Gaoshou's incarnation.

Zhanfei only needs to store some things near the "sesame"-sized signal repeater he dropped, and let them stick to it when they notice someone approaching nearby.

And, the information they convey. Zhanfei can also use the "signal repeaters" provided by Gaoshou to transmit. Even if these "signal repeaters" are monitored by them, as long as the encryption method is good, the real information can be concealed and transmitted in them.

For example, in a huge library with a capacity of millions of books, it is normal for certain contents to contain errors and omissions. Who would have thought that these errors and omissions might be encryption hiding some information?

Therefore, even if Zhan Fei transmits information to the main body openly through the "signal repeater", as long as it is transmitted to this incarnation first and then communicated between this incarnation and the main body, Gaoshou and the others will never be able to discover it. Even if Gao Shou incarnates and they find some very short fragmented information irregularly sandwiched in ordinary signals, they will think that it is garbled code caused by environmental interference in Western Europe.

Of course, these are secrets. It was all hidden in Zhan Fei's heart and he didn't say it out loud. He even asked this incarnation to forget it on purpose and erase part of the memory to avoid any accidents - this method may be useful in the future.

"Slime, what do you mean?" the black-haired four-winged female angel asked Zhan Fei's incarnation.

Zhan Fei's incarnation ignored him, only stared at Gao Shou's incarnation, and said: "I'm quite curious. Now that you know that there is such a thing here, you also have many biochemical men. You can come here invisible together. If you are discovered, let them go. If the biochemical men go out and lure the enemy away, you will have a good chance of getting the crystal. So why do you still want to cooperate with me and make the plan so complicated?"

Gao Shou's incarnation sighed slightly: "First... you discovered the 'big guy' (interstellar biochemical battleship), and we have to appease you. Otherwise, if you can't get any benefits, just expose it and let everyone share the benefits. So what? What to do? Even if we are willing to share the benefits, we don’t want too many people to know about it now. The more people there are, the more likely it is that things will happen. What’s more, instead of joining forces with other powerful people in the alien world, it would be better to join forces with you who have no roots. If the indigenous people of the earth join forces, it will be easier for us to control the situation. "

Zhan Fei nodded slightly.

Yu Wen's incarnation said: "The second reason is naturally because the angels here are too powerful. In addition, those biochemical humans were created on the earth and do not have strong autonomous abilities, otherwise they will easily lose control. And if we want It's like controlling an avatar remotely, and it's difficult to multi-task. In addition, these bionics are not strong enough. When we come in, we need someone strong enough to help us attract the angel's firepower, at least not to be destroyed all at once. therefore……"

Zhan Fei nodded slightly again: "So, it becomes logical to use me, right?"

"It's just mutual use. Don't you also want to use us to find this thing and break into the 'big guy'? I don't believe you will drag the safety of you and your whole family on us. Then you will definitely have to Captured." Gao Shou's incarnation said.

Zhan Fei smiled: "Actually, it is better for you to compete with others for control of the battleship than with me, so it is better to first bring me into the battleship as an ally to suppress others..."

"It's a pity that the families behind us have fully cooperated with each other." The avatar of Gaoshou said in a deep voice.

Zhan Fei said: "So that's it..."

"Okay... that's enough." The four-winged black-haired angel suddenly smiled mysteriously: "Time's up!!!"

"Time's up? What do you mean?" The expressions of Gaoshou's and Yu Wen's avatars changed slightly. (To be continued.)
