This stemmed from that extremely serious nuclear power plant accident.
When people returned to Chernobyl to explore the nuclear reactor buried in the heavy sarcophagus, they were surprised to find that the cooling water in the reactor core had turned black.
Shocked scientists took samples of the cooling water for observation.
To their astonishment, they discovered that a large number of fungi were surviving in these black waters.
These fungi, exposed to endless radiation sources, continue to multiply and thrive as if nothing is wrong, demonstrating the miracle of life in the most dangerous place in the world!
It was from that time that scientists discovered a third type of biological autotrophic metabolism, in addition to photosynthesis and chemosynthesis—radiosynthesis!
These fungi,
They not only gave the middle finger to nuclear radiation, but also to humanity, who at the time arrogantly believed that nuclear weapons could destroy the world.
It turns out that
Even when exposed to nuclear radiation, fungi don't need to mutate; they can adapt completely.
No, rather than adapting, it's more like the fungi found the feeling they had when they were first born billions of years ago.
At that time, the primitive Earth had no ozone layer, and fungi had to constantly face bombardment from ionizing radiation from the universe.
Then, the scientists were shocked to discover that...
Radiation synthesis is essentially a feature that most fungi have by default.
It's just that there's practically no use for it under normal circumstances!
Fungus: There's so much radiation here, it feels like I'm back home!
And now, the outer shells of these Zerg motherships should be made using this model.
It directly utilizes radiation to complete the process, radiation synthesis, which converts the water and carbon dioxide stored within into sugars, serving as a bioenergy source.
However, this only explains what the mothership eats.
How did he fly?
With Fang Jing's limited intelligence, he could easily tell something was amiss.
Fortunately, Fang Jing wasn't a scientist. He just thought about it for a moment and then became even more curious to observe the mothership.
Zerg mothership,
Like a shark's eggshell, it has an overall spiral shape, a hard bony exterior, and is entirely reddish-brown, giving it a very alien look.
It landed quietly on the ground.
As Fang Jing approached, he could see the transparent membrane inside the bony object constantly opening and closing, looking both eerie and mysterious.
Like breathing.
He could even feel the mothership vibrating slightly!
"It really is a living organism."
Fang Jing stretched out his right hand and gently touched the hull of the mothership.
Although his palms were separated by thick, deformed metal,
However, synesthesia technology gives him the most realistic tactile sensation.
The mothership felt rough and bony to the touch, like rubbing bones, without any fleshy feel.
"Buzzing—"
The instant Fang Jing touched it,
The mothership made a rumbling sound, and seemed to be making some unusual movements.
But they are Zerg after all.
The Queen's orders are paramount; even if the mothership is dissatisfied, it can only suppress its dissatisfaction and allow Fang Jing to do as he pleases.
Sensing the mothership's dissatisfaction,
Fang Jing didn't provoke them any further.
The mission to contact the mothership is complete; it's time to return to our own universe!
The queen insect, having taken her leave, found a safe place.
Fang Jing vanished from the spot in an instant.
……
In the empty, obelisk-shaped palace,
On the throne at the very center of the cross pattern, the Queen of Insects held the lightning fragment and sat there quietly.
Her compound eyes, reflecting a faint blue light,
A flash of light streaked across the sky,
Finally, the scene before my eyes was no longer one of Zerg workers falling from the sky, motherships destroyed, and planets shattered.
Instead,
The entire planet is teeming with life.
The Zerg have shifted from a predatory, colonizing survival model to a settled one.
the most important is,
The Zerg, as a race, survived!
"The future is changing, so what do you mean by giving me this fragment?"
The queen murmured softly in her own language, her tone light and relaxed.
According to her calculations
The future has changed.
At least, the Zerg should be able to survive!
"I order the entire fleet, except for the Imperial Guard protecting me, to immediately enter a state of hibernation."
To avoid any accidents during subsequent contact,
The queen insect made a decision immediately.
When there are many insect swarms, disputes sometimes occur between different swarms.
Normally, the queen insect would have plenty of time to deal with these issues.
But now is a critical time.
If the negotiators from the other side come over, these small groups, enraged by their infighting, might fire a cannon at the human side.
Wouldn't that mean we're completely doomed?
Therefore, the insects that were supposed to go into slumber were sent into slumber by the queen.
Furthermore, during sleep,
She, the Queen of Insects, made an important decision.
The Zerg fleet must be streamlined.
"Everything for survival!"
In the obelisk palace,
Pheromones and buzzing sounds continued to ring out.
I finally met the person I'd been waiting for.
The Queen of Insects wielded her sculpted sword and slashed fiercely into the interior of her own kingdom.
Wherever the Queen's orders went...
Don’t dare to disobey!
A mothership that receives a hibernation order immediately begins hibernation; a mothership that receives a destruction order immediately begins self-destruction. Before dying, worker bees emerging from within transport the materials of the disintegrating mothership to the hive.
Then, along with the debris of the mothership, it was incorporated into the culture medium.
This is the Zerg.
The hierarchy is as strict as that of ants.
The queen ant is the queen of the race.
The life and death of all worker bees and the mothership depended on her single decision!
All her orders,
The other members of the group will execute their tasks with precision, just like cogs in a production line!
Even death,
They were not afraid at all!
It is precisely because of this characteristic,
The Zerg are born with the potential to follow a "corporal" path.
