Chapter 601 Sister Logic's Divine Logic
He frowned, selected another worker bee, and browsed through the building menu, but found no new elements.
Then, as if thinking of something, he clicked on a flying dragon next to the Great Dragon Tower, and found that there were two more evolution options in the skill bar --- Air Guardian and Devourer! The three air forces of StarCraft 1 Zerg.
Air Guardians are also called guardians or giant crabs, and their body shape is indeed similar to crabs. Air Guardians are large siege units evolved from flying dragons. They have thicker armor and longer range. Unfortunately, their flying speed is very slow. The battlefield positioning is similar to the brood lord in StarCraft 2. It is a weapon for land warfare and air combat. relatively weak.
Skyguard consists of 5 major components.
1. Sporangia: There are huge vesicles growing on the back of the air guard, and inside it is a biological spore with a strong corrosive effect. When the air guards attack, these spores will be combined with a coagulation enzyme to gather the corrosive spores together to form a high-density spore cluster. Once they hit the target, they will show a powerful explosion and corrosion effect, which can eat through the Strongest Alloy.
2. Multi-purpose appendages: When Skyguard moves in the sky, it will slowly change the direction of movement by paddling its appendages. In fact, the appendages have two other functions. The air guards are different from the flying dragons and devourers. They spend most of their time dormant inside the big dragon tower. When the main nest or the larvae collecting minerals are threatened, they will escape from the flying dragon tower. These powerful appendages are the basis for their movement in the Great Dragon Tower. During combat, these appendages emit intermittent pulses to the surroundings to obtain surrounding spatial information and can locate targets at a long distance.
three. Air sacs: The gas produced by the biological process of Air Guard is stored in countless air sacs on the surface of the body, and can fly in the air by counteracting its own gravity by injecting gas. The Air Guardian has a flat and wide body, and performs slow and clumsy floating flight through the swing of its appendages and the jet effect of the airbag. Of course, maintaining a floating posture is a very energy-consuming thing, and they cannot maintain a flying posture for a long time like the dragon and the devourer. This is also a major reason why the air guards spend most of their time inside the Great Dragon Pagoda, and will not take off to fight until they sense that the swarm is threatened.
4. Spray cavity: During the process of the flying dragon mutating into the sky guard, the organs used to spray blade worms and acid were preserved and strengthened. Used to provide enormous pressure to spore clusters, propelling them to shoot at long range targets.
5. Sticky glue: Like most Zerg units, the Air Guard is filled with sticky glue. When you try to destroy its carapace for research. These viscous gums degrade into fluoroantipyridine compounds. Basically, before any serious research can be done, it dissolves itself.
The Devourer is another evolutionary branch of the Mutalisk. Unlike the Sky Guardians, they are a sharp weapon in air combat and are powerless against land combat. They can spit acid and attack any spaceship or creature in the air, causing corrosive damage. The Devourer's venom can inflict damage on any substance,
Including the armor of the Terran and the large spaceship of the Terran. These venoms also contain acidic spores that hinder the enemy's ability to fly. These spores will also scatter and cause damage to nearby enemy ships.
Devourer has 4 major components.
1. Inflatable inner bag: The air bag used by the flying dragon to store and eject gas for flight has been strengthened to become a large-volume airtight air bag. It plays two major roles of jetting gas to accelerate the flight and increasing the air buoyancy of the devourer. Therefore, although the Devourer is a heavy unit, they fly much faster than the Skyguard.
2. Deadly Acid: The acid spewed by the Devourer is very different from units such as cockroaches and Corruptors. It is more like a mixture of toxins, which not only has a strong corrosive effect. It is also extremely sticky and diffusible, similar to the "pollution" skill of Euglena. After the acid hits the target, it will tightly adhere to their surface, and even wrap them in this highly corrosive and sticky biochemical substance. At the same time, it reduces the target's defense and combat power, and can cause splash damage to surrounding units.
3. Tough outer skin: As a heavy air unit, the Devourer has an extremely thick carapace, which can somewhat resist kinetic energy bombs and explosive energy attacks. Inside this thick carapace is a tightly bonded muscle tissue with extremely high toughness, which is even comparable to the king worm, and is resistant to high temperature and corrosion. The combination of the two gives the Devourer an extremely powerful defense.
4. Toxin cavity: After the dragon evolved into a phagocytosis, the abdominal cavity and ejection port used to store the blade worms mutated, and the blade parasites and various bacteria changed into acidic biochemical substances with complex components in the biological process, which passed through the peristalsis of the cavity wall Mix them together, and then connect with the inflatable inner bag to inject gas to obtain instantaneous high pressure, and the powerful thrust will eject all the acidic biochemical substances stored in the toxin cavity out of the body. When the channel between the inflatable inner bag and the cavity is closed, blade parasites, flora, and various decomposition fluids will be secreted again, and acidic biochemical substances will be synthesized through biological reactions. This is the main reason for the slow attack speed of the phagocytosis.
After browsing the unit introduction, he checked the evolution consumption in the flying dragon skill column. The air guard is 150 crystals and 300 gas, and the population occupied is +1 on the basis of the flying dragon. The devourer is 450 crystals and 150 gas, and the population occupied is also based on the flying dragon. +1. Calculated to be 3 times higher than the game, it is conceivable that their body size should exceed 30 meters.
Both have no active skills, only two passive upgrade items, "Zerg Flying Unit Attack" and "Zerg Flying Unit Carapace".
Air Guardians are suitable for ground combat, because their body structure is similar to that of Brood Lords, and their air combat capabilities are relatively weak. The Devourer has a very high value in air combat. Although their attacks are relatively slow, their single attack power is very high, and they have the ability to weaken the target's attack power and armor. They can cooperate with the main air combat aircraft such as Phoenix fighters, scout fighters, and Viking fighters. Units can exert destructive power far beyond normal.
Flying Dragon, Incubator, Brood Lord, Explosive Mosquito, plus Air Guardian and Devourer, all the small and medium-sized Zerg Air Force combat units in the battle mode have been unlocked, and the army is only unlocked by Ultralisk.
"Rulzan" and his team successively unlocked the Polluter, Sky Guardian, and Devourer, and the secret team also brought Zhixin out of the collection hall. If they successfully expand the Valkyrie frigate and Wraith fighter, this time they will come to the United Kingdom of Turanx. The harvest is rich.
then. He remembered that he hadn't checked Abathur's unlocking progress yet, so he switched the focus to the main nest, pressed the page-turning hotkey, and found that Abathur's unlocking progress had changed to 90%, an increase of 18%.
With any luck. Maybe one more encounter with an epic creature or phagosome polymer will completely unlock Abathur.
After that, he shifted his attention from the system space back to reality, recovered the remains of the fanatics to the system space, walked to the innermost part of the command hall, looked at the clone who survived the disaster in the corner, and pondered for a moment. He decided to investigate the data stored in the central computer database of the computer room before dealing with him.
The computer room is the core of the whole building, and the protection measures are extremely strong. Emma broke through several security devices in a row before paralyzing the hardware defense system of the central computer and entering the innermost host computer room.
Standing in front of the dormant quantum computer, he first checks the integrity of the device. It was found that only the power supply network was damaged, so that the quantum computer that should have been running activated the backup battery, and the system also switched to an energy-saving mode, so that no one used it for a long time and automatically entered a sleep state.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, walked back to the computer console, plugged the data lead of the harsh environment protective suit into the general interface, and gave Emma an order to filter useful information.
After about 1 minute, there was no reply from Emma. But waiting for another mutation.
The interface of the interstellar system turned black again, and the flow of characters that flashed not long ago came to mind again.
", restart... ok!"
"..."
"s..."
"...25%...49%...88%..."
"release."
"w!"
"..."
what the hell? what is it today?
It was so difficult to unlock new units in the past, but this time it is good to come to the United Kingdom of Turanx. First came the mutants, the hungry, then the polluters, then the skyguards and devourers, and now there are new elements appearing.
He immediately turned his attention to the human base, searched carefully, and found no new elements. Then transfer to the Zerg base, select the larva and press the page-turning hotkey. I was stunned when I saw the new options in the menu bar.
It's a Thunderbeast, but... there are some differences. Moving the cursor over and seeing the contents of the comment column that popped up, he felt speechless, dumbfounded.
It was indeed a Thunder Beast, but it was not an adult Thunder Beast, but a baby Thunder Beast, also known as Pai Jia Beast.
He remembered that the baby Thunder Beast was a test product that Duran deciphered the Thunder Beast gene fragment through reverse calculation, artificially edited, copied and bred, and it was not a genuine Zerg unit at all. Zerg units don't have a so-called juvenile stage at all --- if they have to be divided into juvenile and adult stages, their juvenile stage is the larva, or pupa stage.
Of course, no matter what, the baby thunder beast is indeed a combat unit.
I don't know if it's Sister Logic's prank, or laziness, or knockoffs have no human rights. The system annotates it simply, with no sample analysis data.
Tang Fang thinks this is normal, because the Chihuahua version of Thunder Beast is more like an easter egg, or a mascot.
But when he saw the resource consumption of the baby thunder beast, he felt that it might not be as bad as he imagined. The resource consumption of 150 crystals, 75 gas, and 2 people was definitely a mid-to-high-end product among the Zerg's cheap ground units.
There is no thunder beast cave, but the baby thunder beast is unlocked. The system is always good at bringing surprises and dumbfounding.
When he was struggling with Miss Logic's unconventional path attribute, Emma finished the screening process and transmitted a data that summarized useful information in the database to the computer system of the harsh environment protective clothing.
Although the "Brotherhood" had deleted most of the confidential documents before the battle started, due to haste, some less important research materials, including the images recorded by the monitoring equipment, were not completely destroyed, so Emma sent The available information is summarized and accompanied by a detailed analysis report for his perusal.
After 15 minutes, after roughly finishing browsing, Tang Fang finally knew that Sister Logic was a young Thunder Beast who was open because of some strange logic.
It turns out that this scientific research facility is a scientific research unit used to study and cultivate epic creatures. It is very similar to the origin of the baby thunder beast. It is naturally logical that the dna research data stored in the database can unlock the baby thunder beast.
According to the construction purpose of this scientific research facility. From the previous experiment logs, Congreve's attention, and what happened in the recent period, he more or less learned about some things.
Three years ago, members of the "fraternity" masqueraded as ordinary scientists. Using the Epsilon tissue samples obtained from nowhere to seek sponsorship everywhere, the Duke of Congreve, after learning about this, considered that such research may bring about great progress and even revolution in the fields of biology, medicine and other sciences, so They took these clones disguised as ordinary scientists and placed them in "Rulzan". And provide a variety of experimental equipment and a large amount of scientific research funding for its use.
However, all of this is a deception.
The specific research content of the members of the "Brotherhood" had been artificially deleted, and he was unable to obtain detailed information, but the monitoring equipment clearly recorded a conversation full of gunpowder between the Duke of Congreve and the clone leader, although he could not hear the details. But I know that the two sides broke up unhappy.
This conversation happened 2 months ago.
Emma told him that the surveillance records 15 days ago had been tampered with. On the surface, everything seemed to be normal, but in fact, the traces of editing can be captured from the analysis of the data level. This shows that the entire scientific research facility has been completely occupied by the "Brotherhood", and the security forces stationed by Congreve have lost control of the scientific research facility.
What happened today confirmed his guess and made the situation even more chaotic.
For some unknown reason, the members of the "Brotherhood" did not delete the images recorded by the monitoring equipment on each floor in time, and were awakened by Emma to the data network. Synchronizing to the central computer finally let him figure out what happened just now.
The phagosomal polymer in the scientific research facility did not come from the "Brotherhood" as he thought, but was brought into the scientific research facility by the scientific researchers escorted by the Edward Fleet Transport Squad.
at first. The soldiers gathered the security personnel together, and the leading scientific researcher had a brief conversation with them before ordering his men to inject them with a reagent.
But an unexpected thing happened suddenly, the bodies of those security personnel mutated for a while, and they became the existences similar to Congreve's corpse beast, killing all the soldiers and scientific researchers in the front hall. But because the syringes brought by the researchers were broken during the battle, the liquid was sprinkled on those corpses to produce secondary mutations.
certainly. The second mutation was fundamentally different from the first mutation, it did not originate from the parasites in the security soldiers. Instead, it was invaded by the phagocytosis, turning from a corpse into a pile of meat paste.
The phagosome quickly absorbed all the corpses in the front hall, and then swallowed the three clone researchers who entered the room for inspection, evolving into the first form of the "Blood Winged Old Demon"---a bloody flesh blanket.
After that, it left the front hall and started to sneak attack on those clones, digest and absorb them one by one, split into long tongue monstrosities, and began to massacre the clones in the scientific research facility.
In fact, not all members of the "Brotherhood" are clones, there are also real human scientists among them, and not all clones have the ability to fight.
By devouring these staff, the "Blood Winged Old Demon" has made great progress in its intelligence level, and knows how to use various insidious means to carry out sneak attacks and assassinations. On the one hand, the "Brotherhood" suffered heavy casualties. As a last resort, I can only gather the combat power to the maximum, enter the command hall on the -30th floor, and prepare for a last stand against the "Blood Winged Demon".
At the same time, the soldiers on guard at the entrance of the scientific research institute entered the scientific research facility to investigate because they lost contact with their companions. They were ambushed on the -21 floor and swallowed by a group of monsters with long tongues.
The next thing was the arrival of several people from Tang Fang, who were attacked by the "Blood Winged Old Demon" while taking the elevator, until they entered the -30th floor, and the two sides started a decisive battle.
From this point of view, the parasites were created by the "Brotherhood", and the phagosomes were sent by the people from the Edward Fleet Transport Squad, but why did those scientific researchers inject the phagosomes into the security soldiers? Is it Sulbagio's order or someone else's own initiative? What is the origin of the researchers escorted by the transport team?
Things became more and more complicated. It was obviously just a simple rescue operation, but so many things were pulled out.
Considering that the information obtained from the central computer database was extremely incomplete and fragmented, he did not rush to make a judgment, but turned around and left the computer room, and walked towards the location of the clone.
Aros and Roy looked at each other and followed him outside.
Zhou Ai walked at the end, and when he went out, he swayed, but fortunately, he grabbed the door frame with both hands in time, so he didn't fall to the ground.
She took a few deep breaths in a row before she felt better. She thought it might be because the battle just now was too thrilling and her body reacted with fatigue, which made her almost fall down.
No one noticed the small abnormality in her behavior, including Tang Fang. At this time, he was remotely controlling an infected bug to perform "nervous parasitism" on the clone.
For these clones with implanted sensory devices in their brains, "neural parasites" and "ultrasonic pulses" are the most effective ways to control them. Because the intelligence of the central computer was incomplete, he could only hope that the clone had something in his mind to connect this series of events.
Soon, the infected worm sent memory fragments.
Fortunately for him, the clone captured by the ghost has a high status among all the members of the "Brotherhood". He belongs to the management of the scientific research organization and knows more things. There is a detailed explanation in the information flow. (to be continued)
