Zerg in the crystal wall system world

Chapter 3 Psychic Energy
"Didn't you transform me into a strong enough psionic energy during the transformation?" the young man said faintly.He accepted the fact that he had been transformed very quickly, as if that was the way it should be.

"No, as a master, the purer your psionic energy, the better. Therefore, apart from integrating the collective will of the swarm, you will not have other sources of psionic energy."

"We usually describe this kind of power from external sources as 'mottled'. Forget it, what level of psionic energy do I need to reach the full strength of my body?"

"To a more powerful level."

"What about it?"

Agatha thought for a moment: "According to human standards, your psionic energy should be able to initially awaken your body when it reaches Psi level ten."

There is no quantification of psionic energy levels within the swarm.Because they always have a will from top to bottom, for the ruler/Queen of Blades, it doesn't need to know how strong the psionic energy of other worms is, anyway, they are not as strong as themselves.The Swarm also doesn't focus on special operations, paying little attention to the combat capabilities of individual units.

And the swarm has never been able to really infect the protoss to join their own group, so they follow the human standard in terms of psionic energy.

"If I remember correctly, the psionic energy standard for human beings is a total of ten levels?"

In the initial understanding of humans in the Koprulu star area, the highest level of psionic energy is only ten.Later, when Kerrigan made her first appearance as the Queen of Blades, the gauges went off the charts.Because it was obviously too much beyond the tenth level, the eleventh level was skipped, and it was directly marked as the twelveth level psionic energy, which is also the exclusive level of the Queen of Blades.

"Yes. Some proteins that support your body's normal operation must be synthesized with the assistance of tenth-level psionic energy."

"What level is my psionic energy now?"

"Level three." Agatha blurted out.

Fortunately, at least beyond the level of ordinary people.

According to human standards, the first to second level is the level of ordinary people, and only the third level will have certain psychic powers, and can become a searcher who specializes in searching for superpowers.

The ability to link Zerg units should be based on the third-level psionic energy.

"How many insect swarms did the master control to reach the tenth level of psionic energy?" the young man asked again.

"I don't know. All the masters before you are units with psionic energy."

The young man couldn't help but recall the red portal, shook his head helplessly and asked, "What is the level of your psionic energy now?"

"Level five, but currently there are only three levels." The root of the worm queen's manipulation of psionic energy comes from the well-developed nerve cords in the back of the brain.

And why she is currently only at level three is because the psionic energy of the Zerg unit cannot exceed that of the Juggernaut.Of course, this is not a limitation, but individual Zergs can only use psionic energy and cannot refine psionic energy.The root of all psionic energy comes from the will of the hive—that is, the master.

In general, the minds of the insect swarm are gathered together to form the will of the hive, and the will of the hive refines the psionic energy, and the units of the zerg then receive the psionic energy by connecting with the will of the hive... In fact, in most cases, the control overlord The level of psionic energy has never been how much psionic energy it has, but how much psionic energy it can control as an individual.

Of course, young people don't know this now.Level five...not even bad in his opinion, at least the bare minimum for Ghost.

And from the scene where Agatha shot through the giant bear just now, we know that the level of psionic energy is not the whole of the fighting power of the Zerg.The tanks made by humans have no psionic energy at all, and they can smash the psionic units to pieces. The Zerg's body is no worse than those war machines in every aspect.What's more, Agatha is the worm queen next to the previous master, and she is also a hero unit.

"Master," Agatha clasped her claws together, lightly aligning her claws, "The protection around you is insufficient, please establish a hatchery as soon as possible."

"Oh yes," the young man responded, "How do you build it? You still have worker bees?"

"not at all."

Before the young man breathed in his lungs, he heard Agatha continue: "But you are the master, you can breed the swarm even without worker bees."

The young man froze for a moment, then looked down at his abdomen.The face that hadn't changed even after being bitten by a leopard's neck just now became distorted: "Could it be...you even changed this aspect for me?"

The light on Agatha's head flickered slightly before she replied: "No, the reproductive system of the swarm is too complicated to be installed on your body. But your body is full of induction glands, even if you are in a sleeping state, It can also activate and deactivate any gene of the swarm."

Control genes?The young man was stunned for a moment: "That is to say, I can make the zerg become another unit at will?"

"Theoretically yes." Agatha nodded.

But only in theory.

Even the most compact springtail in the swarm has activated more than 20 gene fragments.Moreover, even if some of the genes are activated, their normal transcription requires a special protein as a precursor, and the production of the precursor protein requires the activation of its corresponding gene...

If the young man really wanted to cut a piece of meat and save a springtail out of thin air, he would need to modify at least a million gene fragments, and it would be difficult to achieve it without enough psionic energy to create primitive essence for "cheating".

The production of a unit by the swarm often requires several huge organ-shaped buildings tens of meters high and tens of thousands of tons in weight. This is not a joke.

"You only need to activate the creep," Agatha said, tearing off a piece of translucent skin from her wound, "the structure of the queen's callus is somewhat similar to the creep, you just need to Creep properties can be activated by modifying thousands of genetic loci."

Creep will not disappear with the disappearance of Zerg buildings, on the contrary, Zerg buildings rely on creep to exist.Most Zergs rely on creep to convert the planet's vast inorganic matter into organic matter if they want to survive.

"In order to expand more quickly, the previous master gave Creep higher authority."

In the era of great expansion of the swarm, when facing some planets without any resistance, the swarm simply didn't even throw the airdrop sac, and dropped a sac wrapped in creep material and flew away directly.After the creep blanket covers the entire planet, a hatchery will naturally develop, multiplying a large number of insect swarms.

Sometimes there aren't even any creep sacs.

It's just that humans infected with the Zerg super-evolution virus mutated after returning to the rear planet. As the virus spread, some mutants expanded out of the creep, and there were many examples of the entire planet falling into a sea of ​​​​swarms. However, such development The swarm's potential is limited, as the virus does not store all of the zerg's DNA.

The young man took the piece of skin that was still stained with green mucus from Agatha's hand, and was surprised that he didn't feel any nausea at all.

After looking at it for a while, the young man raised his head: "What should I do?"
