The evolution of insect swarms from XNUMX million years ago

Chapter 266 The mastermind behind the scenes
"Three units on the side, yes, that's it. Prepare to forcefully unlock it. It may be a bit laborious. Your muscle strength is ridiculously stronger than powered external armor. Just pretend I didn't say it."

Among the wreckage, several crazy-toothed saw ants blew up a stepping structure. Only the strongest cockpit part was still intact. The large combat machine was surrounded in the center. Under the guard, a shadow fly was using its forelimbs. Knuckles fiddled with the outside.

Several Ezki individuals were holding special instruments nearby to inspect and guide the operation of the Shadowfly. After the battle, a group of medical personnel and related technicians immediately boarded the intact aircraft. The large tilt-rotor aircraft arrived at the scene under the escort or escort of the Kuai-Wing Diver.

Following the movement of Shadowfly's forelimbs, the door of the cockpit of the large combat machinery was slowly pried open under the huge force brought by the hydraulic muscles of the special structure, revealing the body of the operator below - it looked like he was still alive, but there was no trace of anything. There was movement, I don't know if he passed out or something happened.

"Fortunately, there are still vital signs. Check the head socket to see if there is a data cable pair. It is right there. Don't move yet. You may not understand our body structure. If you move rashly, your life may be in danger. Let us do it."

Lin Yi did not refute. It was not yet time to expose the fact that he had already parasitized many Ezki people and had a good understanding of their body structure. He did not reply, but controlled the Shadowfly's body to slowly move aside. Open and express with actions.

No one noticed that some more carpet spores were being released from the Shadowfly, and with the air flow raised by an "accidental" movement, they floated towards the Ezki individual in the cockpit who seemed to be in a coma. .

"There is no serious problem in life activities. It is suspected of being comatose. Prepare the injection. First, untie the fixed belt, prepare, catch, * unit, and inject immediately."

Among the Ezki individuals operating here, there is Lin Yi's mole. All the sensory signals are received by Lin Yi and analyzed from the perspective of Shadowfly. The perspective is still as clear as ever, and every move of the other party can be seen clearly.

After the medicine entered the body, an undetectable light signal dimly lit up on the degenerated appendage of the Ezki man's head in the cockpit. Immediately, a pair of special structures appeared, completely different from the origin of vertebrates on Earth, but their general structure The eyes that had reached the same destination by different routes also moved slightly.

A person slowly stretched out his tentacles and skillfully found the data cable connected to the body behind his head. It was the highest crystallization of Ezki's biotechnology and mechanical technology. It was installed on the back of the head to assist more complex equipment such as large combat machinery. Data line interface for structure operations.

The locking structure was opened by external force, and then, the data cable was slowly pulled out of the interface - but at the moment when it was completely pulled out, the man suddenly groaned in pain, and then, the body that had just moved slightly fell down again. .

"Valid, continue monitoring and prepare to unplug the interface."

This structure can directly connect the Ezki brain with various mechanical sensing devices, greatly enhancing the operator's battlefield situational awareness, and is almost a standard feature for operators of large equipment.

"what's the situation?!"

"There are still vital signs, and attempts to wake him up are ineffective. It is suspected that he has completely lost consciousness."

Lin Yi, who was controlling the carpet spores heading towards the brain's nervous system, suddenly discovered that there seemed to be some kind of change in the nervous system, as if he had been hit by a strong nerve signal - I'm afraid this person would have to become a vegetative state if he didn't die.

"Have you become a vegetative state?" A signal in the Ezki language came out from the shadow fly's abdomen. Lin Yi didn't know what to call a vegetative state in the other party's context, so he had to mix the word representing plant with Ezki language. self-proclaimed together - reminded aloud. "Plant. Human? What a strange statement." The other party's pronunciation was particularly strange, as if he was a little shocked by Lin Yi's statement, "If you are talking about normal life activities and just symptoms of complete loss of consciousness, it is indeed possible. ”

"Then, is it still possible to rescue him?" Lin Yi suddenly had a bold idea, and a questioning sound signal came out from the shadow fly's vocal organ.

"Probably not. Our technical level is not yet able to make in-depth changes to the level of consciousness."

"So, we have some special means that can conduct detailed analysis of the brain nerves of living creatures. Although we have not tried alien creatures yet, there should not be too much of a problem. Can we try it?"

Lin Yi asked the question he was most concerned about - the carpet spores had long been parasitic and had reached the brain and established the core tissue. But in this way, it is better not to expose it and continue to hide the trump card. He needs an excuse to disclose the results without arousing the other party's suspicion.

"If there is really a way, then try it. Anyway, if you don't try it, it is probably impossible to raise an extra 'vegetative' person under the current conditions."

There was a trace of helplessness in the other party's words, and it seemed that they really didn't know what to do - after all, the current situation of the exploration fleet was really not optimistic, and there was no way to support such a drag, so they had no choice but to agree to Lin Yi's request. .

Shadowfly slowly stretched out a forelimb, and a thorn-like structure slowly stretched out from the knuckles, piercing the back of the Ezki man's head. Then, it pretended to be stable and fixed, and began to move inside. Inject creep spores.

Lin Yi had never dared to delve into some complex components in the brains of the Ezki people for fear of something happening before, but now, there is no such problem. Anyway, this person won't survive no matter what, so it's better to toss in depth and see if he can get some additional information.

The other Ezki technicians around him watched with disbelief as the forelimbs of the shadow fly pierced the back of the man's head, and then maintained this position - that is, they didn't know what transference was, otherwise they would have thought it was a fantasy set.

"It seems that the nerves have been shocked. It is not sure whether it is related to the loss of consciousness."

After a period of tossing. A sound signal came out from the vocal organ of the shadow fly - Lin Yi did not produce any results. The nerve shock was felt by the carpet spores he had sent in before.

But in order to make the other party feel the results of his efforts, he still has to pretend. And soon, based on the results of memory interpretation, some truly useful information slowly surfaced.

But things made him feel a little tricky - this Ezki civilization seemed to be surprisingly capable. The other party's home planet may have truly fallen.
