4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
328 Plague War History
Infecting a creature and then controlling its behavior is a new way to fight back against the plague fungus. At first, the brain often looked for some more powerful creatures, but that was not very easy to find, and the enemy was still slowly destroying it. The territory it occupies.
This biological race that is in war with the plague fungus, Lin temporarily called it the "subspecial group", which has no special meaning, but Lin thinks they may be related to the Inca worm group. According to the memory of the "brain", "subspecial group" The ability of the swarm is very similar to the Inca swarm, but their ethnic habits are somewhat different ...
Because the infected organisms are limited, and powerful creatures are scarce, in order to deal with the 'subspecial group', the brain came up with a new plan to combine those infected creatures together.
This is called the 'Head of the Plague' project. In fact, this is Lin Qi's name.
The brain tried to combine some huge creatures into a creature, and then wrapped it with hardened hyphae for combat. At this time, the brain found it difficult to command too many infected creatures, so it specifically infected some creatures for Spread the use of information, and the fungus lord was born ...
Many infected creatures were made into the head of the plague under the deep sea near the five islands. The original plan of the brain was to make them into a very large creature like ... flying dragon.
Flying dragon?This memory area suddenly appeared like a dragon, Lin felt a little strange. There has not been any memory about the dragon before. It may be caused by the incomplete memory of this brain.
The brain's plan was unsuccessful. The subspecial group has hit the plague five islands. Almost all the plague capitals are basically in the state of unfinished products. The brain hides them in the island.
Faced with the crazy subspecial group, the brain has almost no way, but just before the last line of defense disintegrated, it found that it could infect and control the subspecial group of arms.
It was the first time to test this kind of thing at that time, before it killed these arms, so it immediately controlled a large number of Kia special groups and let them start to kill each other. In this way of control, the brain slowly Gaining an advantage, the subspecies rely on devouring other organisms to enhance themselves, but they cannot find organisms that infect the brain with immune fungi.
The plague fungus is usually spread by a large amount of dust, usually first infected with subspecies of food, let them eat after infection, sometimes can directly infect troops, there are different ways for different arms, because each time can be infected quite In large numbers, the plague fungus is even equivalent to transforming the enemy army into its own troops.
However, the subspecial group is also studying methods of not being infected, and in the process of continuous counterattacks by the plague fungus, the brain discovered some secrets of the subspecial group, and they also have their own 'heads' to command the troops.
After discovering this, the brain thought of infecting the head of the subspecial group to end the battle, and soon it confirmed the position of the subspecial group by analyzing signals and other means.
When the target position was initially found, it prepared a team to attack the target. The subspecial group was actually the same as the brain. It found that the plague fungus had brain as the commander, so their heads came up with a way to attack. Destroy this brain.
The brain of the plague fungus discovered the sneak attack of the subspecial group, it immediately gathered troops to defend, and it hid inside the sea cave.
Both sides attacked each other almost at the same time, however, the brain of the plague fungus succeeded first, and it successfully infected the brain of the subspecial group with a large amount of dust ...
………………
The memory begins to become ambiguous here ... but there are some intermittent contents.
Pain, control, battle, reaction ... kill kill kill kill ... victory ... sneak attack ... rebirth, division, growth, fight ... curse ... death ...
'curse'?What is this?When I saw this memory, the word emerged for the first time in Lin's thoughts. The word felt strange. Why did this word appear?
Then the memory seems to have reached the end, it is better to say that this area of the brain is not used for recording, but Lin can know what happened to them next ...
The fungal brain controls the brains of the subspecial group, but the other party ’s brain may be too powerful, but it affects the brain of the plague fungus and makes it feel pain. It may be like the effect of the brain waves of the headworm. The brain of the special group may send a large number of signals through this, which makes the brain of the plague fungus unbearable, and the memory part should be damaged at this time.
However, the plague fungus finally endured the pain and successfully killed the brain of the subspecial group, and then completely slaughtered all the troops and arms of the subspecial group. ...
So far, the plague fungus can be said to have won.
However, the brain of the subspecial group has not yet died completely. It seems to be reborn on the brain of the plague fungus in some way.
It should be that the sub-special group of sneak attack troops also successfully attacked the brain of the plague fungus. They used this method to regenerate on it. Lin thinks that the sub-special group of sneak attack troops have something that carries eggs or can generate brains. Successfully put the egg on the plague fungus brain, and then a new brain grew ... Then, this growing brain began to compete with the plague fungus brain for control.
The two brains started a war with each other. Lin thought that they only started to attack each other with immune cells. Later, they even developed into small forces to attack each other.
In the process of fighting each other, the troops of both sides also began to kill wildly,
On the way to the war, the plague fungus was clearly in a weak position, and most of its brain was shut down. It can be said that it was slowly swallowed by the other party ...
Even, the brain of the Asian special group gave it ... 'curse'?
Lynn's last memory of the discovery of the plague fungus has hints that all the plague fungi's ability to live in the sea is affected by this curse. It seems that they have lost their filtering ability in the sea, causing the plague fungus to begin to die completely in the sea.
At that time, the brain of the plague fungus was probably located in a seabed cave without water, so it was not particularly affected.
The sub-special forces also almost died in the war, and the rest of the command without the brain may also slowly go to extinction.
… Is this the so-called doom?
But the wonderful thing is that after losing the brain, the plague fungus can continue to grow on the island and continue to live ...
The huge amount of fungus monsters and the head of the plague on the five islands of the plague are also the original brains reserved for dealing with subspecial groups. Although the latter has not played a role, the war is over.
After the war ended, the two brains had been fighting in the underwater cave. The subspecies could be said to be exterminated by the plague fungus, but their brains were not completely dead, but they tried to control or kill the plague with the last sneak attack. Fungal brain ...
The various 'intermittent intelligence' displayed by the plague fungus is definitely related to the brain here, which is still constantly emitting signals. Occasionally it can successfully affect these troops and increase their intelligence.
However, these troops were only affected by information to improve their intelligence, but they did not know how to go back to save their brains. This is a bit strange.
The head of the plague turned out to be just an unfinished product, no wonder it was so strange ... But Lin found that a memory clip had a hint that there was actually a finished product, but there was no relevant information about where the finished product was.
Lin's attack may have awakened the "sleeping" units, causing them to start a counterattack. They should still have some intelligence themselves, and they will have basic combat responses, but no tactical ability.
It turned out that they had such a history.
This is mainly because the brain of the plague fungus stores the memory clearly in an area, but it is not as scattered and fuzzy as other species, so Lin can read it more completely, of course, there are some incomplete details.
Like how they petrified themselves, it is not yet known that the brain of the plague fungus may have lived for thousands of years, or longer, including the time that the two brains battled each other. In fact, it did not expand at the original rate. So fast, the ability to spread is not so strong, and it is more inclined to infect species to fight, and now the fungus is completely dependent on its own growth, and controlling the species is just an accidental behavior ...
They may be fungus-like species, but how to evolve the brain is still a mystery.
And there seems to be no information about the disaster in the sea before in the memory, are they not affected?
The ancient squid's worship of the brain is indeed because it continuously releases information and then affects them ... when discovering their history, Lin also learned some interesting things ... maybe later used.
Well, if you just blow up the brain now, maybe you can stop the army of the plague fungus?
It really should be done, no matter how long they have lived, what they experienced before, it should be over now, and the plague will be ended.
Next, Lin asked the driller to explore the two brains, one big and one small, to make sure that there were no missing problems. Those closed areas did not store more memory. The other areas were probably used for thinking. Or for other purposes such as command, these larger brains divide these areas in great detail, and are not as scattered as ordinary creatures, so it is difficult to read the memory of ordinary creatures.
Wait ... what is this?
Lin's driller suddenly found something strange during the brain search. This is a ... strange object.
It floats in the blood vessels of the head, but it is not similar to the surrounding cells. It looks ... Lin is familiar.
... this is the crystallization of the observer ...
