My players are so fierce.

Chapter 1454 1451. You guys are really talented in military logistics. Are you interested in working as a courier for me?
“Murphy, the ratmen are fighting smoothly in the tunnel in the middle of the battlefield. Black Servant and his rat warriors have miraculously blocked the reinforcements of the insect swarm. Philosir has already started a counterattack with the fallen gods, and the three dragon worms have been killed.

We are going to charge too, are you coming?"

After Rose's encrypted transmission, Tris's voice was transmitted without delay through the World Network system currently covering Deep Shadow City. Facing his wife's invitation, Murphy shook off the blood on the blade of the Long Night Guard in his hand and said:
"I won't join in the fun, there's one last thing I need to do, I hope you guys have fun.

Also, Tris, the two dragons of Salifu seem to be free. They are chasing away the flying insects over the city, but I feel like they are looking for something. Hide your little ghost dragon. I don't think they will be calm when they see their children turned into that state. "

"Tsk, they are just two dragons. If they dare to jump, I will bury them here too."

Tris replied and then ended the call.

Murphy raised his head and looked at the dragon fire falling above his head, then looked at the chaotic area in front of him that had been purified and the corpses of the fallen black bean sprouts around him.

He shouted to the chief who was whipping the corpse of the first high priest:
"Hey, we should go. That guy died five minutes ago. You're only going to look like a lunatic if you whip her corpse like that."

"But I've never been normal, Murphy, and I won't be angry if you call me crazy."

Yvette said without turning her head:
"You go ahead. I will stay here for a while. There are still two high priests of the Abyss Sisterhood on the run in the city. I will kill them myself and end this pleasant hunt today."

"No need to be so ceremonial. They still have a 'mission' to complete. I'll be in charge of finishing it."

Murphy spread his wings and said:

"If you really don't like the shame of being betrayed, you might as well save your energy and wait for the next round. These fallen elves are blessed with longevity. Although we have shattered their bodies and existence, perhaps you will have a chance to see them in the warp form in the future.

I'll catch up with them then.

Go outside the city now, Firothir is launching a counterattack, and she will need strong forces like you."

After saying that, Murphy left this place like lightning, followed his perception of the little players, crossed the chaotic city and landed accurately in the manor of Madam Mathis.

This is the "pure land" of Suiying City. Even in the most dangerous times, no insects can get close to here.

All members of the Silver Moon Group were on alert here, and two power armor knights were on defense. The entire manor was cleared, and the kidnapped civilians were sent away. It was obvious that the Transians were doing something here that could not be discovered.

However, when Murphy landed, he saw two strange insects guarding outside the collapsed main building of the manor.

It is obvious that it is an elite war insect that has evolved based on the scarab. Its appearance is very similar to the giant dragon insect, but it is more than two sizes smaller. It has thick chitinous dragon scales and an inverted triangle head with dragon horns. Its forelimbs are strong and ferocious, just like a smaller version of "Bull", and it is full of destructive power at first glance.

One is black and the other is dark red, they look like a pair of brothers.

But they do not have the insolence and wildness of the Swarm Lords. Instead, they have comfortable saddles and exquisite Songhai beetle bridles on their backs.

They were placed in a temporary fence and not noisy. Brother Huozi and Yuan were feeding the two bugs with a bunch of fruits and taking pictures, while Mrs. Judy used sweet watermelon as bait and was even allowed by the bugs to ride on her for a while.

It's so docile, it looks like a domesticated insect at first glance!

Needless to say, this is definitely a "hard job" done by entomologist Terranova and her boyfriend Jim Raynor. They can be said to have promoted the unpopular profession of insect trainer.

"Master Murphy! You are finally here. Everyone has been waiting here for a long time."

Murphy's first warrior, Ashina, flew out from her hidden sentry like lightning, appeared in front of Murphy, saluted in a formal manner, and reported to Murphy, who was observing the two mutant insects with his hands behind his back:
"Brother Bang has given us the task of escorting the entomologist. The super hackers have already dealt with the corrupted genetic bug that was hidden here before. Terra Nova is placing the strange bugs they brought in the ruins to prepare for 'fishing'."

"Very good, that's what I'm here for."

Murphy nodded, and followed his warrior towards the ruins of the building in front of him amid the respectful salutes of the surrounding players. As he entered the shadows, Murphy suddenly used onomatopoeia to remind his warrior, Little Potato:
"The end of the situation in Deep Shadow City means that the Gray Expeditionary Force's operations in the Eternal Rift have come to an end. After that, we will go to the Sin Castle that has been captured by the Lord and the Holy Blood Regiment to rest before entering the Gray Desert.

But the Lord discovered some very wonderful instruments in the city of the sinful dwarves. Perhaps those instruments can reveal to us the mystery of the Creator's creation.

Unfortunately, however, those machines are not in the greenhouse of life after all, and the energy required for their operation is limited. Perhaps only those foreigners who are lucky enough are qualified to experience such a wonderful experience.

I am pleased with you, Ashina-chan, but you must also be prepared for this."

"what?"

Xiao Ashina, carrying the mechanical version of the Dark Night Good Luck shotgun, looked at Lord Murphy blankly.

She could feel that Murphy was conveying some obscure but important information to her, but Little Potato had probably played with guns too much, causing his brain to not work as well as before, and for a moment he could not figure out what Lord Murphy meant.

However, Murphy, who had transformed into the "Riddler" at this time, was not interested in further explanation, so Xiao Ashina decided to write down this information and then ask Lady Water for advice.

The two soon arrived at the basement of Madam Mathis's manor. This place was previously used by the Abyss Sisters to hide the corrupted genetic messenger, so it was arranged with a lot of "Zombie characteristics". Those corrupted black bean sprouts even used some unknown method to create a decent fungal carpet all around to ensure the survival of the genetic worms here.

Unfortunately, Old Sardin, the amazing groom of Ms. Drusilla, used the computing orb hidden in his crotch to report the location, which directly led to the exposure of this place and was attacked by Vilanser and his super hackers.

All the fallen black bean sprouts guarding here were killed, and their bodies were also cleaned up along with the fallen genetic insect.

"The body of the insect was packed up and sent back to the rear. We need to study how the fallen elves implanted the power of chaos into the gene messenger. This may help us uncover some of the truth about the chaos infection.

Matcha boss is very interested in this sample.

Alas, I was born to work hard. "

When Murphy stepped on the fungus blanket and reached the depths of the basement, he happened to hear the entomologist Terranova complaining to Mrs. Water and Sister Pomegranate. She said:

"I will stay here to check the effect of this 'gene bomb' and then I have to rush back to the R-9 base immediately to use the equipment there to complete the verification and cultivation of the second-generation gene bomb. This thing is a secret weapon at the bottom of the box.

Master Qin said that whether we can defeat the locust swarm in one go depends on whether Jim and I can complete this weapon. It is so important that it makes me nervous. "

"Indeed."

Murphy nodded and said:

"The warriors and soldiers can only clear the existing main insect nests at best. However, the reproduction pattern of locusts determines that as long as they can collect biomass, they can continue to evolve and grow. At present, when insect swarms have appeared all over the continent, it is no longer possible to exterminate the swarms.

The only way to stop them is to destroy the shared evolution of the Zerg, so, my warrior Nova, can you briefly introduce to me, a layman, how you plan to accomplish this feat? "

"Well, handsome Mr. Murphy!"

Nova turned her head and saw Murphy walking out of the shadows with his hands behind his back. She immediately straightened her back and performed an exaggerated Songhai salute. Other players also saluted. Murphy waved his hand to indicate that everyone did not need to be so polite.

He walked forward and looked at the biological box placed in the fungal blanket, in which a fat genetic messenger was sleeping.

This thing is the "weapon" that the two entomologists brought to the Eternal Rift for experiments. Judging from the appearance alone, this "weapon insect" is no different from an ordinary genetic messenger, except for an inconspicuous mark on its forehead, which is "Subject No. 4" written in a foreign language.

Faced with Murphy's curiosity, Terranova, who is outgoing and crazy about insects, immediately explained enthusiastically:

"After noticing that gene messengers bear the responsibility of sharing genetic information between various Zerg nests, we realized that they are the most important and vulnerable link in the collective evolution of the Zerg swarm, so our initial idea was to block gene sharing between Zerg nests by hunting down gene messengers.

But then Master Qin's tactical attempts in the locust wall and our subsequent research revealed that this method was useless!

Genetic messengers are indeed the fastest and surest way for them to share evolution with each other, but they are not the only way.

In the absence of gene messengers, the hive can also complete gene sharing through the primitive method of frequently sensing each other's pheromones, but this second method is time-consuming and laborious and cannot guarantee the transmission of all effective genes.' It must be said that the 'scholar' is very sharp and smart. When he designed the swarm, he realized that the most feared thing about the gene ascension path is the contamination of the gene bank, so he took precautions in advance.

But he's not smart enough.

He expected us to attack the genetic messengers, but he forgot that we could also challenge his creations in the field of biological science! Turn his creations into weapons to shoot at him. "

Nova patted the bio-box proudly and said:
"This time we created four specialized gene messengers, carrying four sets of targeted genes: 'degeneration', 'uncontrolled reproduction', 'pheromone disruption', and 'uncontrolled evolution'. We conducted experiments on insect swarms in four locations and collected the results.

The effect of the genome in the genetic worm in front of you is "evolution out of control".

To put it simply, it interferes with the insect swarm's selection process for various combat specializations, preventing them from accurately evolving characteristics that are more conducive to combat and survival, while increasing the probability of erroneous evolution!"

Seeing that everyone was a little confused, Jim Raynor also explained:

“In fact, for most creatures, evolution is a risky thing. The evolution of most creatures is a random effect produced by adapting to the environment, just like drawing the entries of holy relics. Unless you are extremely lucky, it is difficult to accurately lock in the correct evolutionary route in one go.

Those individuals that evolve incorrectly will soon be eliminated by the environment.

Even human evolution has retained the correct evolutionary direction time and time again in this cruel screening, but scholars have set up a very BUG precise evolutionary mechanism for the Zerg. They will retain all the characteristics that are conducive to survival and combat, while eliminating those wrong options.

This is clearly a special genome that was specially written.

The interference we impose on the insects is to destroy this mechanism and put the insect swarm back on the path of 'random evolution'.

Once the swarm's evolution goes out of control on a large scale, it will not only consume precious biomass, but also seriously drag down the swarm's evolutionary efficiency due to genome contamination. If used together with other genomes, if everything goes well, only one outbreak will cause the swarm's 'genetic ascension' to go completely astray."

"Ha, I see."

Little Potato snapped her fingers, not sure if she really understood.

But Mrs. Shui frowned and said:
"I roughly understand. However, small-scale genetic contamination is not difficult. The problem is that the Zerg is a large collective with a common hive will. Once a genetic disease is discovered, I estimate that the Zerg will immediately take control measures.

For example, isolating those insect nests that carry faulty genes.

I believe that with the intelligence and high sociality that the swarms are currently showing, they can definitely do this.

So, how do you plan to accomplish widespread infection?"

"Didn't I tell you? Use targeted gene editing technology!"

Nova spread her hands and said:

"This thing is black technology in our area, but the Creator's biological console can complete genome editing like combining building blocks. When we decide to use this weapon, we will first create an advantageous genome for camouflage and let the Zerg adopt this advantage to evolve.

When it spreads to most of the hives, targeted genes will be used for precise attacks.

It is like hiding a bomb that only we can detonate, and it will explode when we need it. It sounds complicated, but with the help of the Creator's advanced gene editing technology, it is not difficult to execute. "

"I have to admit I didn't quite understand it, but I was blown away."

Murphy said frankly with the attitude that an NPC should have:
"Your theory gives me confidence. I will support professionals in doing professional things, but I still want to ask, is the gene bomb you threw permanent?"

"Not necessarily."

Nova said with some distress:

"The genome of insects is quite amazing. Their natural ability to evolve rapidly means that they have a strong ability to self-correct. Maybe in a few years, the insects will get rid of the influence of this 'genetic disease' through repeated attempts.

This is a question of probability.

The crude exhaustive method may seem stupid but is actually safe. Given the swarm's 'distributed' pattern and exaggerated reproduction speed, it is only a matter of time before they come up with the correct answer.

However, as long as the Zerg cannot get rid of the mode of using gene sharing to transmit evolutionary information, our method will always be effective. After all, things like genetic ascension are never perfect.

The problem is that bugs are improving, and we have to improve with them.

If we slack off for a moment, I'm afraid the bugs will come back soon."

"This is not a bad thing. Appropriate pressure can always help us maintain the necessary unity."

Murphy stroked his chin, reached out and stroked the bio-tank, and said:
"Let's get started. Everyone else evacuate immediately, pretend to flee, and catch the fish!"
-
Thirty minutes later, the seventeenth high priest of the Abyss Sisterhood rushed out of the war-torn Mathis Manor, covered in dust and carrying a bag that was constantly oozing mucus. The miserable fellow raised his head to take a look at the barrier covering the entire city and the giant dragon flying around.

The cooperation between the two prevented the swarm of flying insects from getting close to the city, and naturally they could no longer take away the "fallen insects" they had worked so hard to create.

But she was extremely lucky to seize the negligence of the Transians near the manor, and successfully snatched back the captured fallen insects in a life-and-death battle.

Now all we have to do is take this insect out of the city and hand it over to the swarm before they surround us. Then the great Immortal Lord's plan to control the swarm for his own use can be realized!
The Seventeenth Seat gasped in the shadows.

She had learned about the terrible current situation from the cries of her sisters. Almost all the top leaders of the Abyss Cult had been captured. Their organization was on the brink of destruction, but it only appeared so on the surface.

The high priest gritted her teeth and rushed out of the city with the squeaking fallen insects on her back. Her heart was full of anger and hatred, but not despair.

Under the protection of the Lord of Immortality, she and her sisters will eventually make a comeback.

Yes, this failure is just a rehearsal!
They have countless chances to fail, but the shadow elves and this world can only fail once.

"May the Immortal Lord curse you!"

The high priest pulled down his hood, cursed bitterly, and slipped into the tunnel dug by the earthworms in front like a rat.

She took one last look back at the Deep Shadow Tower behind her, as if she wanted to remember that damn place in her mind as the main target of her next action. She would definitely destroy it with her own hands!

Finally, she jumped down the tunnel and disappeared into the darkness amid the hissing of the "fallen insects" behind her.

At the same time, the voice of the old turtle Tritan sounded in Murphy's ears:

"The couriers have set off. Even though they received the wrong order and took the wrong goods, they are still determined to complete the order at all costs. They are so dedicated. Alas, why don't my Star Logistics have such determined employees?"

"There will be."

Murphy complained:
"If you raise the stringent 'employee benefits', believe me, Tritan, your employees will be eager to serve you 24 hours a day."

"Well, it would be fine if someone else said that, but it feels a bit strange coming from you..."

"Hmm? What are you slandering, you damn old turtle from the Star Realm? Isn't the way I get along with my little players a perfect example of cooperation? Do you dare to say that the 'employee benefits' I give them are not good enough?

Or do you think I'm a bad boss?"

"Well, old turtle, I won't argue with you about this. Whatever you say is what's right."
