The Zerg Overlord Who Devours the Starry Sky
Chapter 246 Choice, the path of human evolution
Chapter 246 Choice, the path of human evolution
Purgatory Abyss, Anze City.
This extremely huge city of demons, with its walls alone reaching tens of thousands of meters high, was now in dilapidated condition.
The city wall built of dark red boulders is already covered with dark brown patches.
That's what happens after the blood dries and solidifies repeatedly.
Part of the city wall has been completely broken, and a group of demons are urgently repairing it. In the past, these demons who would start a fight when they met have rarely become honest.
But if you look outside the city, you will understand why this is the case.
Anze City stands in a vast sea of magma, surrounded by rolling magma and hot steam.
But at this moment, most of the rolling magma was covered by a thick blanket of bacteria, which was at least more than fifty meters thick.
Under the fungus carpet, countless vine-like roots penetrate deep into the magma, absorbing the fiery energy in the magma.
Whether it is for insects or demons, high-temperature liquid like magma can hardly cause harm.
For example, the Blazing Zerg among the swarms and the Balrog among the demons can use magma as food.
Tens of billions of demons and the insect swarm are fighting madly, and countless lives are disappearing every moment.
But both sides obviously have no intention of retreating.
Above the fungus carpet, the roars of the battle between the insect swarms and demons resounded through the sky.
Bodies piled up like mountains and blood pooled into rivers.
Even with the speed of the creep's absorption and transformation, it was too late to swallow up all the corpses and blood.
There are battlefields everywhere in the sky, on the earth, and even in the magma.
In this battlefield that stretches for millions of miles, there are nearly a hundred starry sky beasts with extremely huge bodies and peak bloodlines active.
The 90-kilometer body is like a living mountain. A single kill can kill tens of thousands of demons.
Even if it is one level higher than them, it is impossible to resist their attacks head-on.
Their size is too large, and it is difficult to inflict fatal damage with one hit.
And as long as they cannot be killed, no matter how seriously injured they are, as long as they retreat to their mother's nest tens of thousands of miles away from the battlefield, they will quickly recover and enter the battlefield again.
Tens of thousands of miles behind the insect swarm battlefield, several mother nests with a height of 190 kilometers spread out, and the carpet was densely covered with large and small incubation chambers.
Every moment, a large number of Zerg are hatched and join the battlefield continuously.
Join the bloody battlefield like a meat grinder.
However, what is even more terrifying is that near these mother nests, there lies a giant beast with a head and body nearly a thousand kilometers long.
Creatures that are a thousand kilometers away, if they are not far enough away, it is impossible to see what they look like.
So amazing.
They did not join the battlefield, but just lay down to ensure that the mother nest would not be destroyed by the demon side.
On the other side of the Demon City, there was also a steady stream of demons being driven over.
In the city, there was an extremely powerful aura erupting, and the majestic momentum suppressed the entire city.
But it was obvious that after several months of war, the number of demons had become scarce.
Even in the sky, there is a blood-red vortex tens of thousands of kilometers long. The vortex emits an alluring aura that attracts the entire layer of demons in the abyss of purgatory to come for support.
In a nest on the front line, Qin Mu looked at the battlefield with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
This war should have ended long ago. All it takes is for the twelve world lord-level starry sky beasts of peak bloodline to swarm up, destroy the demon city, and kill the demon leader.
But Qin Mu dragged him down forcefully.
A battlefield of this scale is very rare, and it is very suitable for the current strength of the insect swarm.
Originally, with the power of the insect swarm, it was quite difficult to defeat all the demons and kill the immortal-level demon leader.
However, there were twelve world lord-level starry sky behemoths with peak bloodline, and they no longer saved resources and went all out to explode the troops, which turned this war into a draw.
However, when the battlefield converged on the demon city, a large number of demons were mobilized from all directions by the demon leader. Together with the bloody vortex that appeared in the sky, they blocked the progress of the insect swarm.
No, it cannot be said that he blocked the progress of the insect swarm. It should be said that Qin Mu felt that this level of battlefield was too suitable for the evolution of the insect swarm, so he did not end the war quickly.
"The number of newly evolved units in the swarm has reached 323. Many of the main units have evolved and their strength has doubled."
After calling up the data from the battle, Qin Mu nodded with satisfaction.
For a long time in the past, various units in the swarm have not experienced actual combat in the true sense, and there are various defects.
Some of these flaws are difficult to expose, but they were exposed one by one in this long-term and high-intensity battlefield.
"There is also a massive amount of data on the chain mutations of the insect swarm units. Among them, the one with the most mutations has successfully transformed from the lowest level insect unit into a second-class starry sky beast with the attribute of [living] fire."
Qin Mu's eyes were placed in front of a Zerg unit about ten kilometers long.
This is a starry sky beast that is covered in bruises but exudes a fierce aura.
Different from ordinary starry sky beasts, the aura of it that was killed from the sea of blood from the corpse mountain was even more powerful. Half of its lizard-like body was soaked in magma and half was covered by a carpet of bacteria to treat its injuries.
"This should be the king unit among the Devouring Insects."
Qin Mu chuckled.
There are two ways to hatch the Devouring Zerg.
The first is to create weak Zerg on a large scale.
Then, let them kill each other internally and devour each other. The weak will die, the strong will survive, and the strong will devour the weak and become stronger. When a large group of Zerg warriors are all dead and only one is left, that one will be the best.
Not all Zerg warriors have the same qualifications, some have greater potential and some have less potential.
This method is to eliminate all those with low potential, and the peak Zerg that has experienced endless killings... is ten times more powerful than the average world lord peak Zerg warrior, and can be called the king!
The second type is the normal cultivation method.
In the past, Qin Mu was raised normally.
However, what is different from the Devouring Zerg is that if Irina is allowed to cultivate the King Zerg, for example, the Tiger Beetle King will be cultivated.
Then it will hatch out a large number of tiger beetles and let them kill each other. In the end, it will just select one tiger beetle with greater potential and strength.
But it's different now.
This Zerg was just a low-level Blazing Zerg at first.
It continued to evolve during the battle, evolving step by step from an ordinary Zerg to a starry sky behemoth like a flaming behemoth.
Then it evolved from a blazing giant beast to [Li] of domain lord level bloodline!
"Although the efficiency is a little low, the harvest is really good!"
Qin Mu nodded with some satisfaction.
The evolution system in the insect swarm unit is relatively complete, and it can already evolve from the lowest level insect unit to a starry sky beast at the [Li] level.
Then, Qin Mu turned his attention to the other side.
It was a group of humanoid Zerg.
In other words, they were a group of experimental subjects recreated with human blood.
However, their shapes are obviously different now from the beginning. After many evolutions, their body shapes have changed a lot.
Their bodies have been alienated, and it is difficult to see their original appearance anymore.
Some have horns growing on their heads, some have extra arms, tails, and scales, and their bodies are several times larger.
The most exaggerated one among them has mutated from its original size of more than one meter to a giant beast nearly a thousand meters tall. "Unlike the evolutionary variation of Zerg units, the evolutionary variation of human bloodline still needs to consider the physical appearance."
Qin Mu frowned slightly.
As a biological weapon, the Zerg units are of course the stronger, the better, and the more ferocious they look, the better.
But humans are different.
If there are only one or two people, this situation actually doesn't matter. As long as they can become stronger, what does it matter if there is some alienation?
Human beings can also be identified through their souls.
But that won’t work if the entire human race mutates.
For example, Luo Feng, after seizing the body of the golden-horned giant beast, still brewed an earthly clone.
This is a recognition of human identity.
The human body shape is a kind of culture and a kind of inheritance.
But unlike Luo Feng, who has multiple clones, using genetic seeds allows one to evolve!
When the cosmic-level bloodline is still in human form, the domain lord level will mutate uncontrollably. After reaching the world lord level, the human bloodline is almost devoured by the giant beasts in the starry sky.
In this way, the more it strengthens, the closer it becomes to the starry sky beast, and even directly mutates into the starry sky beast.
Take Earthlings as an example.
Suppose that after everyone is injected with genetic seeds, through continuous evolution, they will eventually become starry sky beasts.
So are they still human?
They can have the talent and power of the starry sky beast, but they cannot really become the starry sky beast.
Otherwise, hundreds of millions of years later, the top human beings will turn into starry sky beasts, and it will be hard to say whether they are humans or starry sky beasts.
It is very dangerous to become two species physically.
In particular, most of the starry sky beasts are bloodthirsty and cruel.
Qin Mu only wants their talent and potential, but he doesn't really want to turn them into starry sky beasts.
This kind of problem must be eliminated at the source rather than waiting for it to happen before dealing with it.
But here comes the problem, human genetic strength is limited.
Below the domain lord level bloodline, Qin Mu can perfectly integrate human genes with the genes of starry sky beasts, with human genes as the dominant force.
Apart from being stronger and having some strange lines on his body, there won't be any changes.
But no matter how strong it is, it is difficult to guarantee it.
For example, when Qin Mu studied the perfect divine body, he discovered that human genes have limits.
When it reaches a certain level, various kinds of alienation will definitely occur.
For example, the body becomes huge!
A body of two to three meters cannot accommodate the violent power and genes of the peak bloodline starry sky beast.
Therefore, Qin Mu enlarged the first stage of the perfect divine body, which is now the insect nest tyrant, to a thousand meters!
Even after collecting 12 kinds of peak bloodline starry sky beasts, Qin Mu has already started the second phase of the perfect divine body.
It is estimated that in order to accommodate so many outstanding genes of peak bloodline, the body size will be at least over 10,000 meters!
This is a necessity.
At the same time, the Hive Tyrant is no longer human. Although it is based on Qin Mu's genes, it has almost nothing to do with its original appearance.
"Two options."
Qin Mu's thoughts were spinning in his mind. In the past few months, he had thought of many ways, and finally came up with two relatively reliable and achievable plans.
The first one is through the fusion of different human genes and starry sky beasts. The human body is still enlarged, but there is no alienation state as much as possible.
In short, it is to enlarge the body and integrate the genes of the starry sky beast with a larger body.
Under the condition of ensuring that the whole does not mutate, it has the talent and potential of the starry sky beast.
This has a great advantage, that is, after becoming immortal, their divine bodies will become even larger.
But it will be very difficult to do this.
There are hundreds of millions of human races, there are too many races.
It is very difficult to use their genes to fuse the starry sky beasts without causing too much mutation.
The second type is more simple and crude, creating a second form, or fighting form.
It is still a normal body at ordinary times, but as long as it explodes with strength, it can quickly expand and mutate.
It is not too difficult for Qin Mu to do this.
Not to mention the iceberg beast's transformation technique, many races have the ability to transform and expand rapidly.
For example, the most classic Moyundeng.
This kind of plant life can change into any shape, such as the form of a battle armor, or it can expand and enlarge to entangle and restrain the enemy.
Or star-eating grass.
Before it blooms, it looks like a real grass and is very small.
But as long as it is activated, it can become thicker and longer crazily, and in an instant, it becomes a truly "giant celestial body"-like existence.
With such characteristics, Qin Mu can completely integrate the genes of the starry sky beasts and design a fighting form.
It doesn't matter if the fighting form is a little ferocious, as long as the combat power is strong.
Anyway, it is still in normal form.
But there is also a big problem. Not to mention the weakening of the ordinary form, their true genetic fusion form is actually a fighting form.
The usual form is a disguise.
It's okay when he's weak, but when he becomes immortal and has a divine body, he will definitely be in a fighting form.
At that time, there will still be a danger that all high-level human beings will turn into giant beasts in the stars.
"We still need to find ways to strengthen human genes and allow human genes to evolve."
Qin Mu shook his head, feeling a little headache.
As long as human genes are stronger, there is no need to worry about these problems.
Human beings definitely have genetic potential. After all, Luo Feng can enhance human genes through the Nine Tribulations Secret Code, so theoretically Qin Mu can also do it through research.
It will definitely be very difficult to simply optimize human genes. For example, only one person in the entire universe can practice the Nine Tribulations Secret Code.
This is different from what Qin Mu thought.
"Huh? How about letting Luo Feng integrate the Nine Tribulations Secret Code, and then I study Luo Feng?"
Qin Mu's eyes suddenly lit up.
Eh!
Don't tell me, this is really a good idea!
Luo Feng has a demon-slaying clone, and he won't die anyway. Success in cultivation is inevitable.
The secret of the Nine Tribulations is that it can break the rules of the universe and is not limited by gene multiples.
As long as there is experimental data after transformation, for Qin Mu, it is no different than practicing the ninth-level secret code.
In this way, there is no need to worry about the risk of the entire insect swarm turning into ashes.
The plan goes through!
