The "urge" from the Tactical Intelligence Office was not light. Professor Lan did not continue chatting with Ronan, but thoughtfully asked him to report to Colonel Hong Shuang as soon as possible.
Ronan didn't know whether his heart-to-heart talk was over, and what kind of results Professor Lan Yao got.
Of course, he would not be stupid enough to ask directly. After a brief goodbye, he went to the Tactical Intelligence Department.
On the way, he recalled the conversation just now. I had a vague feeling that Professor Lan was conducting some personality tests on him, and might also want to find out more about his family and ethnic background.
That's okay, heart-to-heart conversations will inevitably involve these things. Moreover, in the past four months, Aunt Kui has created a fairly complete set of life experiences and background for him, so it will definitely be no problem to deal with him face to face.
The problem is that the Tianyuan Empire is also an information and authority society. Everyone's life trajectory from birth to death will be completely backed up in the database, and lies cannot withstand inspection.
Perhaps, the "Tianyuan Mirror System" will add a non-existent migrant population to the original background, and at the same time modify the memories of all "Test Time and Space" characters?
Isn't it a bit unnecessary?
Can't you assume an identity that already exists?
Thinking about it, with "Aunt Kwai" as his backing, he will only perform better.
Ronan frowned, then relaxed, not wanting to think about it further for the time being. In this virtual environment, questioning the "system" is somewhat redundant.
Now he would rather spend a little more brain power to make a new assessment of the Tianyuan survivors of the light-containing galaxy in this era.
He could barely understand it. He had struggled for eleven thousand years and done countless things.
After countless failed attempts, the Tianyuan survivors became familiar with the fearful and familiar attitude of being afraid and tired of the poisonous environment.
But it can only be conceptually understood, and there is definitely no real experience.
Therefore, Ronan didn't know how this project, which was at least spearheaded by Lord Rongjing and was infinitely close to "playing with fire and self-immolation", would be positioned in the current Tianyuan Empire society.
Perhaps, he should read a few papers on sociology; or ask a few more people to see what the penetration rate of "Monnet" is.
Lieutenant Meng Xin is a good conversation partner.
Well, I'm afraid I don't have any free time now.
Ronan took a deep breath. The information Lieutenant Meng Xin had just sent him made it somewhat difficult for him to focus. Therefore, the issue of "the dangerous attitude of the Tianyuan remnants towards the poisonous environment" was put aside for the time being, and he needed to focus his energy back on more realistic tasks.
He dug out the newly obtained information and looked at it again. Of course, those familiar pictures must now be studied against text and video materials.
At a rough glance, the object shown in the data picture looks like a red ant.
The specific biological characteristics are of course different from the similar species on the other side of the earth that Ronan knows, but the presence or absence of compound eyes, antennae, labial bases, abdominal segments and other structures has never been a problem. What really attracted Ronan's attention was the translucent bodies of these red ants that seemed to have flowing firelight, as well as the dark spots on them that seemed to be randomly stained like mud spots.
Looking more closely, these "dark spots" seem to penetrate all the way into the body of the red ant, making the originally translucent body even more turbid.
"The rodent bacteria...
…parasitic red ants? How can you come up with such a thing? "
According to the information sent by Lieutenant Meng Xin, last year, the team that was promoted to the Normal University published a series of papers on the research on the parasitism of "Bacteria".
"Rotozoon" is just one of the by-products of the Tianyuan Empire's many years of in-depth research on extraterritorial species.
Although at this stage, everyone basically has a unified view of extraterritorial species, which are alien species that break down barriers and infiltrate from outside the "local universe". However, in academia, the origin of extraterritorial species is still unclear.
Whether it comes from another universe that is completely different from the basic rules of the "local universe"; or whether it is a creation from a plane or demiplane that is attached to the "local universe" that has not yet been ascertained - scientists in related fields are arguing fiercely, and they can't wait to see it. Knock the shit out of each other's minds.
Of course, theory is theory and experiment is experiment. Although the general direction has not yet been determined, the influence of the environment of the light-containing galaxy and the fierce battle with extraterrestrial species for more than 10,000 years are enough to make the light-containing galaxy become the high ground for "extraterrestrial species research" in the central star region.
Configuration, layout, creation, and many of the latest achievements in related systems are based on the research and analysis of extraterritorial species.
Comparatively speaking, the "Bacteria" is just an insignificant and small achievement among them. It is a wonderful group of bacteria separated from some extraterritorial species, capable of penetrating and destroying the space-time structure, and having limited distribution across time and space.
Under normal circumstances, they cannot obtain energy directly from the outside world. They must parasitize extraterritorial species and extract energy for reproduction and expansion. However, they also help these extraterritorial species gain the ability to "displace time and space" that they should not have.
Tianyuan Empire researchers separated
"Bacteria" mainly wants to use this kind of bacteria to mark the hidden curled space-time structure.
The research direction of the Shengzhan team is similar. However, they parasitize "Bacteria" into local cosmic organisms in an attempt to expand the boundaries of the bacterial community.
This research has gone quite far, and there are already real objects like "zombie ants".
However, since there is a "zombie" prefix, it proves one thing:
These "zombie ants" are lifeless.
According to the thesis statement, although the parasitized red ant has some characteristics of extraterritorial species and has the ability to "remain" in a high-temperature environment for a long time and can be used as a host, it has long lost its vitality and can only be parasitized by "Bacteria". The nervous system is still functioning instinctively. After being stimulated, it will have a stress response and crawl at a low speed.
The successfully parasitized "Bacteria" retain their activity, but because the energy environment conditions to maintain their survival are too high, and they are of the "lying flat" type and do not have the ability to control their hosts, problems will arise in their growth and expansion. Will die soon.
Through experiments, the Shengzhan team found that in high-temperature areas where geothermal heat and lava are abundant, the "Bacteria" can obtain more energy from the host, so the activity is increased, the survival time is extended, and the host's crawling speed under stress is also increased.
However, it is impossible for "Bacteria" to control the host's direction of action.
Only "zombie ants" in this state can be treated as special materials with some "extraterritorial species" properties.
Moreover, "zombie ants" are naturally capable of camouflage. After entering the earth's core environment, there is a high probability that the alien species on the opposite side will think that this is not the case.
The inconspicuous things belong to the same kind; the poisonous living bodies are not particularly sensitive to inanimate objects; although the poisonous environment is destructive, these "little zombies" are already dead and don't care.
As long as the subsequent supply can keep up, it is very competitive for early detection.
Lieutenant Meng Xin was able to think of such a very special "material", which can only be said to be his quick thinking and excellent professionalism.
Ronan was very impressed.
But these are not the reasons why he feels "super familiar".
"The current activity status should be reasonable?"
In the operation room of the Tactical Intelligence Department, Ronan looked at the "zombie ants" crawling all over the table and was able to roughly determine the direction. Sometimes he simply rolled forward in a group, but the speed was still barely enough. Finally, he took a long breath and turned to look at Meng. Officer Xin.
"It should be more active in a high-temperature environment, but it doesn't look like ants..."
"Let's go to the 'stove' first, and you can adjust it again." Ronan said casually, and then asked seemingly casually, "Speaking of which, how can the parasite of the red ants be developed by the 'Bacteria'? Properties of high temperature?"
When they really enter the high-temperature geothermal and lava areas, the red ants, which are just ordinary insects, will turn into ashes in a few seconds. The "worms" have no ability to protect their hosts, and their lives will soon turn into gray.
"it's here."
Lieutenant Meng Xin knew that Ronan didn't have time to read the paper carefully, so he specifically found out the most critical one, pointed out a paragraph of the paper to him, and explained orally: "The normal team used 'double parasitism' to The root marrow of 'Hell Tyrant' was transferred and it successfully parasitized ordinary red ants. That is, it first parasitized to Hell Tyrant.
into your root marrow, and then introduce the growing hyphae into the red ants..."
"Tyrant of Hell?" Ronan blurted out, interrupting Lieutenant Meng Xin. He didn't need to hide it at this time, his eyelids were twitching, "This is... well, I mean, this is equivalent to sucking out the bones and marrow of a great monarch? Isn't this too costly?"
"The laboratory methods will definitely be more luxurious, and adjustments will be made later. As mentioned in the paper at the beginning of this year, newer technology can also achieve 'double parasitism' through the radiation magnetization of the root marrow of the Hell Tyrant. This is also the main way to provide materials at present - we are lucky and have all the key pre-materials, but the red ants are temporarily cultivated from the portable gene bank."
"No wonder it's on the table so quickly."
After many rounds of experiments, Meng Xin and Ronan became more and more familiar with each other. While explaining, he also said casually: "Speaking of which, the key to completing this series of experiments is that the Hell Tyrant was twenty years ago. Zhan Shifan, Junior Brother Liang Lu, and of course your father’s battle results at the avant-garde 4 relay station.”
"Ah, is that so?" Ronan looked surprised.
But this emotional expression is not just due to the fate of twenty years ago, but also a coincidence that may last longer.
He looked at the "zombie ants" crawling slowly on the operating table and said softly: "So, these little things have the characteristics of the tyrants of hell in their bodies?"
"Yes, this also gives them an extra layer of cover in the core environment."
"But it also has to go down into a high-temperature environment...Have you considered its scope of application?"
Suddenly, Colonel Hong Shuang's voice pierced my ears,
He still rode on the floating commander's chair and entered the operation room silently; his attitude was always cold and stern.
The time has come to finalize the plan.
Ronan didn't really listen to Lieutenant Meng Xin's explanation. Most of his brain was thinking about one thing:
Meow, it looks more and more like it!
Although there are quite a few differences in appearance, they are both ants, equally resistant to heat and high temperatures, and can also be linked to the ability to erode time and space... including a high degree of compatibility with the Tyrant of Hell.
When these elements are combined together, don't they become living Vulcan Ants?
