Chapter 274 The Cloud Shepherd turned out to be a fish?
  "The ineffective damage we have caused to the Cloud Shepherd at present is the part hit by the napalm bomb. The burnt remains of the Cloud Shepherd cannot be quickly absorbed and utilized.

Moreover, according to the test data of No. 1, when swallowing ingredients such as flour, plant fiber, animal tissue fluid, etc., the Cloud Shepherd will not show abnormalities. There is a high probability that the abnormalities are caused by the devouring of each other by the same race. "

Chengying conducted a comparative analysis based on the holographic projection data and came to a conclusion that was not optimistic.

"Wait a minute? Based on the laws of natural selection you mentioned, how could any race evolve such physiological characteristics that specialize in killing its own kind?" Ice Emperor looked puzzled.

"There may be similar situations among surface animals! I remember that scorpions are actually very territorial!" Cheng Ying looked at Ice Emperor.

"Uh... you said it, it seems true. Before evolving intelligence, my kind did seem to kill each other to ensure that the number in a certain area would not exceed a certain critical value."

"Not only that, I've also told you the story of lemmings! There are all kinds of strange things in nature. Since there are even creatures that will collectively jump into the sea when their numbers reach a certain level, this cannibalistic characteristic is found in some people. It is possible to evolve in extreme environments."

Speaking of this, Cheng Ying paused and projected the cell structure of the Cloud Shepherd in the holographic projection: "I didn't pay attention to it before, but now I look carefully, the compatibility between the cells of different Cloud Shepherds seems to be very strong, I'm afraid The inhaled cells can be used by them without going through the digestion step."

"So, if we don't kill the cells of the Cloud Shepherds, the damage to them will be extremely limited, which is equivalent to an 88% damage reduction effect when we hit the opponent?" The Ice Emperor settled the account very quickly. of.

"That's right, but what I'm most worried about is that quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. It's very difficult for us to deal with the thousand-meter cloud herder elders. If it's a big guy at the 10,000-meter level, then our battleship's main gun can only Ticking someone’s itch.”

Chengying's worry is not unreasonable. Based on Muyunzhe's devouring efficiency, it is really possible to grow to 10,000 meters.

"Then let's burn it with fire! If it's not burned, it won't be eaten by them."

"It stands to reason that it is indeed possible." Cheng Ying removed the holographic projection, walked down the very sci-fi bridge, and came to a red unknown substance like foam plastic on the deck.

"Although burning with fire may trigger the Cloud Shepherd's blood to explode like a cloud bomb, the damage effect of high temperature on the shield is far less than that of kinetic energy weapons, so there is no need to worry about competing with them.

What worries me is that they have more insane ways of playing, such as their ability to reproduce. "Chengying cut open the unknown sarcoma, revealing the disgusting structure inside.

"Hmm... what is this, why does it look so cute?" Ice Emperor stretched out his finger and poked it.

"The reproductive organs of male cloud herders are their...balls. By the way, I just found out not long ago that No. 1 is female." Cheng Ying's words made Ice Emperor's expression freeze instantly.

Immediately summon a large amount of ice cubes and wash hands frantically.

"I was thinking, what is the reproductive capacity of the Cloud Shepherd? Is it strong or weak? When I was transforming the No. 1 organism, I found that the number of egg cells in the Cloud Shepherd was unexpectedly high.

There are so many that they don't look like mammals and reptiles, which are born with fewer and better eugenics. Instead, they are more like some fish that directly discharge their reproductive cells into the water and combine freely. "

While Cheng Ying was speaking, he had already taken out a scalpel and cut off the part of the reproductive organ that stored sperm cells.

"Let's go see what the life process of this creature is like. Only by understanding the enemy can we defeat the enemy."

The cabin door opened under the mechanical structure, and Chengying and Bingdi walked in one after another. At the end of the narrow corridor, there was a laboratory with a strong science fiction color.

In the laboratory, the huge cylindrical glass culture tank displays the tissues and organs of various strange creatures, as well as strange creatures that look like humans but not humans. Who knows what Cheng Ying and Dugu Bo did after catching those evil soul masters? What an inhumane experiment. Chengying found an empty culture tank and emptied the liquid in it, leaving only the same air as the outside world.

"Inject the extracted egg cells first!" Chengying said, inserting a small iron can into the input tank, and milky white mist sprayed out from the input port in the culture tank.

"Then the sperm cells are injected."

Put the strange organ in your hand into a small iron can and smash it into pieces, then inject it into the culture tank. This time it is a light red mist. The two mists merge in the culture tank. After mixing together, the most primitive combination process begins.

"What's the point of your experiment? Is it just to see the reproduction process of the Cloud Shepherd?" Ice Emperor looked at the jar strangely. She knew why there was no culture medium, and the atmospheric organisms would be crushed to death in the culture medium. .

"You will know if you keep looking. Now let's observe the combination of sperm and egg! The microscope is not very convenient, forget it, use your mental power to magnify it."

Jing Hua Shui Yue was once again used as a holographic projector. The two saw that the sperm cells and egg cells in the holographic projection were combined to form the simplest embryonic cells.

After this, sperm cells and egg cells that the embryonic cells come into contact with will be phagocytized, as will smaller embryos.

"Tsk! Why does this look like a ball fight?" Cheng Ying's expression was a little strange, but he did not interfere for the time being. The embryonic cells that devoured other cells grew very quickly, and they grew to more than 200 in a short period of time. A juvenile Cloud Shepherd with a length of more than one centimeter.

It's just that the images of these individuals are not so much like dragons, but more like... fish...

"Does this really mean a carp leaps over the dragon's gate?" Cheng Ying watched the small fry devouring each other, shook his head, and pressed the joystick on the other side.

"Inject organic matter and start measuring the oxygen concentration in the container!" White glucose mist was sprayed out, and the small fish fry fighting each other stopped and began to swallow the glucose powder.

"What's the use of this?" Ice Emperor was even more confused.

"The principle is actually not difficult. We can obtain two data respectively through the amount of organic matter injected into the container and the molar content and volume of oxygen injected into the container.

The first one is the total amount of organic matter consumed by the cloud herder, and the second one is the total amount of oxygen consumed by the cloud herder's movement. From the amount of oxygen, it can be calculated that the organic matter lost during the growth process of the cloud herder is, That is, the amount of organic matter that has not been converted into its own mass.

Subtract this value from the total amount of organic matter consumed, which is the total mass added by the Cloud Shepherd, and then we can get the material conversion efficiency of the young Cloud Shepherd.

At present, this efficiency is not optimistic! If the Cloud Shepherds breed their own cubs on a large scale... the consequences will be disastrous! "
