Talented Predatory Zerg!
According to the statistics of the experimental data of the chip, this kind of zerg can only carry out talent plundering once in its lifetime, which is the moment when it evolves from a larva to an adult.
And its predation has its limits.
17% of the gene fragments is the upper limit of this zerg's natural ability to plunder parasites. If it exceeds this upper limit, too many foreign gene fragments will cause its own genes to become unstable, causing the gene chain to collapse.
And this obviously fails to achieve Greem's goal of obtaining 100% of the gene chain of the target creature!
The wizarding world is so powerful and prosperous. If it is said that no wizard has ever discovered the strange ability of this Zerg, even Greem himself does not believe it. However, due to the fact that the world of wizards has not yet developed a perfect microcosmic system, this also leads to the fact that even the most powerful wizard in this world can only extend the tentacles of witchcraft to the level of material molecules.
Further down, when the study of witchcraft reaches the atomic level, high-ranking wizards become helpless.
This is actually a necessity!
In the previous life, the earth was a low-magic world and lacked the existence of extraordinary power, so precision science appeared for the sake of it. Even the most ordinary human beings can see a finer level of material molecules through auxiliary facilities such as microscopes.
However, in the social environment of high demons, no matter how difficult a disease is to be cured on a mortal, it can be cured through a small 'elimination technique'. If it doesn't work, pouring a bottle of healing potion formulated with the water of life can also bring the dead back to life and rejuvenate the old man.
It is precisely because of the convenience and magic of extraordinary power that all wizards regard witchcraft as the only way of thinking to solve problems when they encounter problems. This has also caused a serious lag in the natural sciences, humanities, social sciences, and precision sciences of the major material planes in disguise.
And these are inevitably replaced by a certain system of witchcraft!
The organ transplants that the earth possesses also exist in the high magic world, and it is more convenient and more brutal. The wizards involved in the operation don't even need to be proficient in human organs and vivisection at all, but only need a little witchcraft of 'organ activation'.
Don't look at the bloody blood every time they dissect, and the operating table looks like a slaughterhouse, but the creatures in the high magic world also have super vitality ten times that of the earth's creatures. No matter how simple the operation conditions are, no matter how rough the operation process is, when the light of supernatural power shines on them, the dissected subjects will still be alive and violent when they climb off the operating table.
The artificial intelligence possessed by the earth can also find similar things in the high magic world, that is, the tower spirit owned by the top witch tower.
Even when the people on earth were still worried about the "betrayal" of artificial intelligence, the wizards had already tamed Taling into the most loyal and reliable servant. Many wizards spend their entire lives in their wizard towers. Some particularly infatuated wizards even fuse the soul of their lover who died halfway with the tower spirit in order to achieve the goal of staying with their lover for life.
And the technology of stripping the soul and merging the soul with matter is a level that is difficult to touch even if the earth's technology is developed to an extremely high level.
Therefore, in two different environments, similar material conditions gave birth to two completely different ways of civilization.
Technological civilization and witchcraft civilization!
As a witness of the two civilizations, Greem himself is an out-and-out wizard, but the chip in his mind is completely the crystallization of technological civilization. Therefore, when he worked hard to merge the two civilizations together, he also possessed a life pattern and soul level far beyond that of ordinary wizards.
When other wizards are in his position, they are still indulging in various intrigues and power struggles, but he always involuntarily wants to lift the veil that covers his eyes and let himself see this with his own eyes. The truth of the world!
It was this condescending perspective of life that made him immediately and keenly aware of the power of this magical zerg.
Of course, this kind of power is difficult for ordinary wizards to touch. Only an individual like him who has two civilizations can find another way to bypass the upper limit of gene absorption.
Therefore, in the past few days, Greem has almost devoted most of his time and energy to the research of Zerg. Although no breakthrough has been made for the time being, several alternatives proposed by the chip have been verified one by one.
Currently, Greem is working with all his strength to extract the mysterious substance that can plunder life genes from the body of the magical zerg. And this is undoubtedly extremely time-consuming and energy-consuming!
...
This is a biological laboratory full of magic.
Bright and soft colorless white light radiates from the entire wall, illuminating the inside brightly.
But in the center of the laboratory, there are more than a dozen translucent giant cocoons standing tall. Below the giant cocoon is a thick layer of fleshy substance, which covered the floor of the entire biological laboratory like a creeper, and in some places even extended to the walls.
The giant cocoon and the creep are connected by several thick fleshy tubes. These fleshy tubes cling to the surface of the translucent giant cocoon, grow meanderingly like the blood vessels on the human heart, and continuously transport light yellow blood into it. Nutrients.
Through the translucent cocoon membrane, one can vaguely see embryos of various sizes and shapes floating inside the cocoon bubble. Judging from their shape, size and body characteristics, the embryos in these cocoons should all belong to different developmental stages after asexual reproduction of the same living body.
And in the huge cocoon in the center, the mysterious worm that Greem captured from Medusa was floating inside with its limbs spread out, and even the scorpion tail was hanging limply, as if it was in a kind of deep anesthesia.
As for Greem, the owner of this biological laboratory, he is currently hovering between the cocoons, silently observing the evolution and development direction of each embryo.
Due to the lack of precise scientific support, it is simply impossible for Greem to build an earth-like biological laboratory from scratch. Therefore, Greem borrowed the thinking of Earth's biological sciences and various methods of witchcraft civilization to create such a magical version of the biological laboratory.
The nutrient solution that supports the survival of the Zerg and the embryo contains almost all the nutrients needed for biological evolution. It is a magic potion carefully prepared by Gargamel, the top pharmacist of the Throne of Fire, according to Greem's orders and requirements.
Any life embryo thrown into it can complete the evolution from a juvenile to a mature body at the shortest speed under the stimulation of the ultra-concentrated life medicine. And such a process is still controllable, the concentration of life potion input every moment is under the control of Greem, the laboratory master.
Due to the preciousness of the zerg, even though Greem searched the old spider's lair carefully afterwards, he couldn't find the second one. Therefore, in order to avoid completely destroying such precious experimental specimens due to his own operational mistakes, the first thing Greem needs to do before extracting the gene fragments of the Zerg is to cultivate a large number of substitutes for the Zerg specimens.
Although this Zerg was only a juvenile, Greem still successfully extracted its life genetic material during the deep scan of the chip.
So, the next thing is to work hard to cultivate Zerg II, Zerg III, Zerg IV...
When the Zerg specimens are not unique, some deep work on sample sections and genetic isolation can be put on the agenda.
Greem soon came to a cocoon, in the light yellow nutrient solution, a palm-sized irregular piece of flesh was floating inside. More than a dozen long fleshy tentacles hung down from the side of the meat and kept waving, allowing 'it' to swim freely in it like a fish.
Although no body organs such as eyes, ears, mouth and nose can be seen on 'it', and no hidden life cycle system has been found within the piece of meat. But when Greem's gaze was focused on the piece of meat through the cocoon, 'it' stopped all activities like a frightened little animal, and sank to the bottom of the cocoon without moving.
Play dead
This seems to be the survival ability that only intermediate intelligent life can master!
Could it be that such an inconspicuous 'meat' already possessed the wisdom needed by an intermediate life form
Greem grinned and sighed silently.
The magic of the wizarding world's life system is indeed beyond the limit of my imagination, and any previous cognition and laws are shackles for subsequent research and exploration. If you want to make progress in this brand-new mysticism system, the most important thing is to get rid of the interference of inherent thinking in your mind.
Greem silently drew a rune in the air, and punched it into the creep under him.
Following the slight tremor of the meat tube coiled on the cocoon, streams of rich life medicine were injected into the cocoon. Greem, on the other hand, lay prone on the cocoon, his eyes fixed on the reaction of that 'meat' without blinking.
The piece of flesh that was still 'playing dead' began to shake violently under the stimulation of the strong life potion. More than a dozen fleshy tentacles retracted into the body, and the flesh began to swell and deform continuously.
In Greem's near-see-through chip scan and mental perception, the chunks of flesh continuously absorbed the nutrient solution into the body, and then quickly transformed into corresponding fleshy tissues and internal organs. Some musculoskeletons emerged out of nothing, and gradually developed into shape, and then stretched to a suitable position by the muscle fibers attached to them, splicing them into the initial model of the future Zerg frame.
This process is miraculous and mysterious, with both the rigor of life science and the uncanny workmanship of mysterious power, which made Greem secretly admire while monitoring it.
But at the moment when the Zerg skeletal framework was just completed, an inexplicable genetic shock suddenly destroyed everything.
The chain breaks that occurred at the genetic level caused the Zerg that was halfway through evolution to explode into a bloody sauce.
The explosion this time was so uniform that the meat in the cocoon did not even have a single grain of meat left, and it turned into fine pieces of flesh and blood, which evenly painted the cocoon into a dazzling blood red.
Greem straightened up in disappointment.
In my mind, a series of reminder messages from the chip sounded.
"Hey, the evolution of the 125th cloned sample failed... Reason for failure: gene chain break... The remaining samples are recommended to be destroyed..."
