Different from the original man-made or natural aerosols on the earth, although the concentration of spore black fog rises and falls due to climate influence, it accumulates or dissipates due to atmospheric precipitation and other reasons.

On the day of the disaster, the black mist blowout caused the spore communities originally dependent on living organisms to deepen their recessive symbiosis among 10% of human individuals and 70% of animal individuals, creating a group of evolvers and a group of black beasts.

Most humans and a few mammals quickly lose their vital signs due to the deadly toxins released in the dominant state of the spores. Later, they took over the nervous system of the organism through the spore colony, and became a dominant necromorph, that is, a member of the black corpse and the corpse beast.

The spore community parasitizes in the pons and medulla oblongata at the backbone of the creature's hindbrain, and controls the whole body with the secreted pheromones, stimulating further mutation and evolution of the individual.

From the symbiosis of spores and organisms, they evolve into higher energy organisms. The accumulated free energy exists in the form of crystal nuclei in the hindbrain of the organism. Similar to the T-virus zombies in movies and TV shows, if an external attack can directly destroy the brain of an organism and destroy the nervous system from the root, it will also achieve a fatal effect with one hit.

This will not destroy the core loot, but the spore colonies as symbionts will also die.

In the hidden symbionts, living organisms still dominate, and the spores are reduced to appendages and powerful tools on the road of evolution.

However, when the latent symbiote is stimulated by the outside world, such as being bitten or scratched by a zombie, the individual will be severely infected by spore toxins. Then the spore parasitic mechanism is stimulated a second time, and the spore community dominates. The bitten organism changes from recessive symbiosis to overt parasitism, the organism dies, and within 40 minutes the corpse turns into a black corpse or a corpse beast.

The immune agent is prepared from homologous crystal nuclei of spores, which can make individual organisms resistant to spore toxins in advance, thereby maintaining a recessive symbiosis state under the invasion of black mist.

But it's not without harm. After using the immunity potion, an individual will miss the increase in strength brought about by the latest black mist eruption. Awakening potions also have such a repulsive effect, but the evolution bonus obtained by using awakening potions is faster and more stable than passively waiting for the black mist to erupt.

Whether it is an invisible parasite or an overt necromorph, this change is irreversible.

Although the two are both spore crystal core energy creatures, they are mortal enemies of each other. Due to the unconscious competition for evolution, they have become prey and hunter.

This is probably the purpose of the Star Thieves group.

After the spore toxin poisons most of the humans, the groups of black corpses, corpse beasts, and black beasts formed will also massacre the survivors a second time. You can reduce the 7 billion thinking ants to less than 100 million grasshoppers without having to do it yourself. Although it is a bit more powerful, that's all. Grasshoppers still belong to the category of "ants", and since their numbers have dropped sharply, they have become more concentrated, making it easier and faster to crush them to death.

Moreover, if we can use some more methods, we can encourage the indigenous people on this planet to fight and fight. Maybe they can capture this planet without them having to take action personally.

After all, as an alien intelligent species, even if they want to come to the earth before the earth's atmospheric environment is transformed by the spore black mist, they will have to pay a high price.

It can also be seen from this that regardless of the planetary civilization to which the Star Thief group belongs, the Star Thief group alone cannot directly destroy the earth's civilization.

Borrowing force to save effort is a helpless move.

"And this is the hope and advantage of the native race."

Not far from the lighthouse, Lang Hua once again killed two black corpses through a sneak attack.

Thick black and red blood dripped down the blood groove on the dagger at his feet. Lang Hua didn't bother to clean it up, and looked forward and narrowed his eyes.

Not far away, more than twenty black corpses heard the movement, turned around one after another, opened their mouths and roared, making unexplained roars.

"Roar!"

More than twenty black corpses surrounded him. Lang Hua knew that he could not confront them head-on, so he turned around and thrust them diagonally toward the northeast.

Seeing that the fat on their lips was about to slip away, the black corpses mechanically turned around and roared in the direction of Lang Hua's escape, slowly chasing after him. Some of them even started running stiffly.

Seeing this scene, Lang Hua couldn't help but feel nervous. He immediately changed his route and circled repeatedly in front of the pile of materials. The body of the black corpse in the initial stage of corpse transformation was not coordinated enough, and it caused continuous collisions in this area, causing unspeakable pain.

Seeing that people were already gathering towards the lighthouse in the dormitory area to the south, Lang Hua turned around and increased his speed, lowering the group of black corpses behind him and leading them towards the northeast.

More than a dozen workers who survived took the opportunity to climb inside the lighthouse wall and were temporarily safe.

A few minutes later, Lang Hua made a circle and came back from the west. There were still seven or eight black corpses following him to eat ashes.

The people at the lighthouse were waiting for dawn in fear, but suddenly they spotted Lang Hua not far away.

"Look, it's Xiaohua who's back!"

"Why did he bring those monsters back? Did he want to kill us all?"

"Lao Liu, you are such a wolf-hearted thing, how could you get here alive without Xiaohua? Have you forgotten who took the risk to lure so many monsters away just now?"

"It's not like I asked him to lure those monsters away. He's already lured them away, why would he come back... It would be fine if he died outside with those monsters."

"You! Do you still have humanity!"

"Stop fighting, stop fighting. The sixth child just wants to live. His brother was bitten to death in front of him just now."

"Don't make a sound! Those monsters killed Lang Hua. It would be dangerous if you notice this place!"

"you!"

There was chaos behind the wall, but Wang De murmured, as if he was meeting Lang Hua for the first time: "What a handsome boy, what a brave and resourceful Lang Hua. I really made a mistake..."

Xing Wutian stood next to Wang De, looking only 40 years old.

He climbed up the wall and shouted anxiously: "Xiaohua, come here quickly!"

The others were caught off guard and taken aback.

"Xing Wutian, what are you doing?"

"Come down quickly, the monster will notice this!"

After hearing this, Lang Hua nodded and greeted Xing Wutian. Then he suddenly turned around and slashed a black corpse in the back of the head.

Another black corpse tried to pounce on Lang Hua and bite Lang Hua, but Lang Hua kicked him in the chest three meters away. He became unstable and fell to the ground.

"Thrust!" Lang Hua shouted, taking three steps at a time and coming to the front. The knife with the sound of wind pierced the black corpse's eye socket, ending the deformed life of the corpse.

A coherent and skillful double play was staged in front of them, leaving everyone speechless.

Wang De even narrowed his eyes slightly, showing an extremely fearful expression.

Lang Hua quickened his pace, held up the low wall with both hands, and jumped into the wall with a swing of his body.

"Why are there only a few? Are there no people alive?"

While asking, Lang Hua distributed several military thorns and blades in his backpack to everyone.

"They're all here." Others responded with some dejection.

Lang Hua immediately ordered: "The black corpse is coming! Get to the second floor scaffolding, everyone, hurry!"
