"[Monster! Let us out quickly!]"
"[I feel like I'm getting stronger.]"
"[Venom... cannot corrode... walls...]"
"[It's so noisy! You guys are useless!]"
"[I remember you! Don't run away when you get out!]"
As Therazoido cruised the entire planet Zerus, Abathur's "research institute" was also filled with different ethnic groups from various tribes.
At present, their languages are still interoperable and they can still communicate with each other, but after the civilization stage, they may directly come to the Tower of Babel.
Although it conducts in vivo experiments, due to the characteristics of the symbiont, there is no need to conduct slices and dissections at all. It only needs to "swallow" the "experimental materials". Even those destructive experiments can be perfected with the "replication" ability. Simulate the effect.
It was obviously a biological experiment but not a single creature died. I suspect that this development may have been affected by the will of the world.
[Be confident and get rid of doubts. 】
'This is strange. It was obviously normal for various civilizations and tribes to fight each other to death. '
[That is of course because there is no 'Malefia' involved. As expected, no matter where she or your other incarnations appear in the future, if they can intervene, they will definitely make things develop in a good direction. 】
'I highly doubt how good Abathur's biological research is. '
【Just look at the results and you will know. 】
Results?
Malefia stood on the high island in the middle of the lake, overlooking the entire research institute, and looked around at all the prisoners, or in other words, test subjects.
Abathur is rubbing his hands with a small symbiote in his "laboratory", and there are many other symbiotes of the same size in other cells jumping around on different Irissons, sometimes possessing them. Occasionally performing mimicry, the Irisons were furious but helpless.
Almost all Irrison's appearance will change drastically after being possessed. Basically, the standard is an upright mantis with a black body, and each has different specializations.
Dehaka, who is particularly strong, becomes twice as tall and four times fatter after being possessed. Keres, who is particularly fast, has his body shrunk and becomes streamlined. Barak, who has a ghost attack, moves with phantoms and can Slifan, who temporarily disappeared and had hardened skin, was covered with thick bone armor. Only the toxin-strengthened Yagdra...its poison sac was transferred to its mouth and launched an attack in the form of a tongue. Difficult to evaluate.
And these characteristics, when Abathur allows the symbiont to undergo "mimicry" transformation, can all appear in the same individual, and it is basically certain that it has perfectly mastered those specialization factors.
"[The mutation factor comes from the source of matter,]" Abathur seemed very sure that Malefia could hear its speech. He glanced at her from a distance and started to babble directly: "[Innate, eternal. Everlasting, ever-changing, everywhere.】"
'Well, it is indeed easy for scientists to get in touch with the nature of the world, even if they are bug scientists. '
[Yes, it has determined that various mutations are caused by the 'source substance' it named, which is 'Element Zero', but it still has no concept of 'evolutionary components' and DNA points. After all, this setting Things cannot be discovered casually. 】
'Now it depends on how it will unify Irisen with this kind of research results. If it relies on force alone, it will probably end in the same way. '
"[Irisen, total transformation, Zerus, the only will.]" Abathur said as he stopped rubbing his hands and pressed two thin bone claws on the symbiote in front of it. dog
Whoosh - crackle crackle -
At this moment, the group of symbiotes suddenly expanded back to its original size, and the symbiotes attached to the Irisin prisoners instantly shrank to almost invisible. However, the Irisin prisoners did not change back, but all turned towards the "being" The state of "possessed" changed. After a period of howling like ghosts and wolves, they all became different from their original forms, but they were also different from the "possessed" state. They had different weird forms, but what was relatively unified was that they all stopped complaining and making noises. , looking uniformly in the direction of Abathur.
'Huh? this……'
[A race that only knows about fighting and killing has turned into a race that obeys the orders of higher-level beings. Is this considered salvation? 】
'In simple terms, chaotic evil becomes lawful evil? '
[Strictly speaking, they are lawful neutral. Which direction they prefer depends entirely on the orders given by higher beings like Abathur. 】
'What about this kind of behavior that erases individual consciousness...'
[Hint: Genes soar. 】
[Engineered Evolution: Leaving our evolution completely to nature is an inefficient and slow approach. Why not take a step forward in biological evolution and become immortal? 】
[Tip: A new race appears on the planet Zerus: Irisen-1. 】
[The current population characteristics of 'Irisen-1' are: rapid proliferation, very strong, and home all over the world. 】
[The current political system of 'Irisen-1' is: 'Gestalt Consciousness'. 】
[Gestalt Consciousness: All sub-bodies of this race are commanded by the supreme will. The leader is immortal and cannot change the political system. 】
[The current trend of thought in 'Irisen-1' is: 'Swallowing Swarm'. 】
[Swallowing Swarm: Unable to engage in diplomacy with any civilization, has casus belli 'prey' and 'assimilate' against other civilizations. When devouring or assimilating units of other civilizations, it obtains its evolutionary components, and is hostile to other civilizations (Swallowing Swarm: -1000). 】
What what what? Remind sister to wait a moment? Is this development too exaggerated?
[Hahaha, there's nothing wrong with it. As long as everyone is integrated, there won't be any problem of who is tricking whom to death. ] The stupid system gloated.
'Is that some weird Irisen completion plan? '
Tip: My sister naturally won’t react to the complaints from me and the stupid system, and will continue to flood the screen with words and pictures.
[Tip: Due to the appearance of the 'devouring swarm' on the planet, the wars among the tribes of Zerus have been temporarily suspended. 】
[Tip: 'Dehaka', 'Keres', 'Barak', 'Srivan', 'Agdra' and other tribes declared war on 'Irisen-1'. 】
[Tip: The 'Javoan' tribe initiated an alliance request to 'Irisen-1', which was automatically rejected. 】
Is that tribe stupid? If you side with the Devouring Bee Swarm, you will only get eaten.
"[Strong, fast, and powerful,]" Abathur, who still didn't know that he had become the target of public criticism, rubbed his hands and expressed his strength to Malefia: "[They are enough to unify Zerus.]"
Yes, yes, as long as you can wipe out all the tribes that come over, you will indeed unify Zerus.
