Chapter 177 Experience
Chapter 177 Experience
The memory inside the memory that Chen Ming saw started from when the Queen was still dormant in an asteroid.
This was an asteroid that had been discovered by the military of the star region a long time ago, and it was confirmed that there were Thorn Zerg inside and rare mineral deposits.
However, although it was called an asteroid, its diameter was already close to one kilometer.
Although the military had the ability to mine it, it did not, but instead found a way to drag the asteroid to the galaxy where the mining space station was located, and deliberately let the space station scan it.
The mining space station was indeed doing things according to the military's ideas.
When the asteroid was searched and scanned for rare minerals on the asteroid.
The space station took the initiative to send a tugboat to tow the asteroid to the mining area of the mining space station.
The asteroid was developed using the large mining lasers and mining equipment here.
On the day when the preparations before mining were completed, the first special metal ore was collected, and more high-value minerals were scanned.
The space station held a celebration banquet.
Then someone took advantage of the celebration banquet and the mining operators who were still working to manually adjust the mining plan during their shifts.
Originally, if the space station was mining the asteroid according to normal safety procedures.
Then after a few days, the outer wall of the asteroid would become thinner, and the Zerg secretions in the internal worm nest would interfere less with the civilian-level scanning detectors here in the space station.
This means that the mining space station is very likely to discover abnormalities inside the asteroid and take countermeasures in advance.
But this modified mining plan did not follow the mining safety regulations at all, which led to the internal worms being released in advance when no one expected it.
And because of the noise of the previous mining, the Zerg inside had woken up, and the crazy worms that had been knocked for two days instantly poured into the space station.
The person who changed the plan was definitely a spy planted by the military, and he also had a certain status, otherwise he should not have been able to change the mining plan under such circumstances.
As for the final outcome of this person, the Queen of the Worm saw it clearly anyway.
Because he hid in a corner of the mining area after releasing the worms.
Operating several industrial robots, he entered the asteroid after almost all the Zerg had left the asteroid.
He stole a Thorn Zerg egg from the hive and immediately used the potion he had prepared to put the egg into hibernation.
Thorn Zerg was a rare creature as it is now thirty years ago, and their eggs are indeed of good value.
The man then stored the eggs and placed them in a hidden corner of the warehouse, preparing to find an opportunity to take them away.
Then he was killed by the Queen of the Zerg who had already set his sights on him.
But even if the Queen of the Zerg didn't kill him, he would most likely die under the guns of the military of the star region who were squatting outside the space station.
On the other side, the Zerg that poured into the space station did cause great damage to the space station.
This is not right.
The mining space station is located in the edge star field, and it must have basic defense capabilities.
Even if it is an attack from the inside.
What's more, people who can survive in the edge star field, unless they are pure technicians like Chen Ming who took the initiative to come here for promotion, have nothing else to do except hibernation and work.
The others have more or less experienced battles.
The sudden appearance of the Zerg will definitely cause a brief chaos inside the space station, but after some people died, the space station management can definitely resist.
After all, this is just a worm inside an asteroid, not a fully developed Zerg army.
But in the memory of the Queen of the Worm.
The space station did not organize a decent resistance at all, only a few scattered people made a futile counterattack when facing the sudden attack of the Zerg.
There were also some autonomous defense measures of the space station that barely stopped the Zerg's steps, and there was no other resistance.
It was as if this was not a space station with a tough folk customs located in the edge star field.
As for the reason for this situation, Chen Ming also learned from the memory of the Queen of the Worm.
And he learned it from the scene that left the deepest impression on him in this memory.
It was the scene when the Queen of the Worm's worms arrived at the living area of the space station and found the hall where the celebration banquet was held.
When the worms broke through the door of the hall.
In front of them were tables of luxurious dishes compared to the edge star field, and blue-faced corpses lying on the ground next to them.
All the management and team leaders of the space station died.
Many employees who could not attend the banquet due to work requirements but were given some scraps of delicious food from the banquet distributed by the kitchen also fell at their workstations.
Even some people who happened to be temporarily stationed at the mining space station and were just passing by individual mining ships or caravans died here because they were invited to attend the banquet.
This indiscriminate large-scale cause caused the space station to completely lose its leader.
The remaining ordinary employees and other ordinary people who were still alive had no way to organize a decent resistance and could only escape on their own.
But outside were the spaceships of the star zone military waiting.
This was a dead end.
The galaxy where the mining space station was located was blocked.
The Queen of the Worms occupied the space station, emptied almost all the food in the space station warehouse, and then dormant for more than 30 years.
Until the day Chen Ming woke up from the cryo-sleep chamber.
What follows is what Chen Ming knows. He knows very well what happened during this period of time.
Especially after seeing from the perspective of the insect queen that it directly cultivated hundreds of cyst worms in just two days, Chen Ming once again confirmed how strong the Zerg's evolutionary ability was.
However, after discovering that the Zerg had cyst worms, he did not go near the space station again.
So what happens next still depends on the memory of the insect queen.
After Chen Ming left, the insect queen made a large number of insects stare at the direction where Chen Ming's spaceship finally left for more than half a month.
The result is naturally nothing.
In the past few days, the bugs began to go to the dock frequently, coming in and out of the few ships that were basically damaged but not completely destroyed in the dock.
Then one day, the insect queen took action herself.
Fat and bloated, it was carried by bugs on the space station and transported to the most intact civilian spacecraft.
Within a few days, the insect growth completely covered the spacecraft, turning it into their nest.
Immediately afterwards, the insect queen learned how to start the spacecraft.
Although the operation of today's civilian spacecraft has been simplified to the point where it can be driven without much professional knowledge, Chen Ming was a little surprised that the insect queen learned it like this.
But if you think about it carefully, with the hive mind of the race clustering, it seems that there is no problem with the increase in IQ as the number of Zerg increases.
In short, the insect queen stayed inside the spacecraft and stayed there for a week.
Along the way, insects continued to deliver spacecraft fuel, various growths, and a lot of bright green-looking gelatinous substances to the spacecraft, which should be the Thorn Zerg shellac he had discovered before, a kind of Zerg food.
At the same time, other insects gradually dismantled several other more seriously damaged spaceships, and many of the materials and equipment on them were gradually transported to the spacecraft where the insect queen was located.
After a few days, the growth on the outside of the spacecraft hosted by the Queen of Insects gradually faded away.
Although there were many flaws, a spaceship that had almost all the damage repaired by the Zerg in their own way appeared on the space station.
Chen Ming remembers that he originally thought it was because the other spaceships except the Iron Ore were too old and fragile, and there was almost no possibility of repair.
So the Iron Ore, the most completely preserved spaceship, was chosen from the beginning.
He did not expect that those spaceships that he thought could not be repaired were actually maintained by these bugs.
Even after the growth outside faded away.
The insect queen spent a few days sending all the insects on the space station into the civilian spacecraft, which was only more than thirty meters long.
There should be thousands of bugs in the entire space station, all packed into one spacecraft.
Of course, this is physically impossible, so the insect queen used a special method.
It re-digested and absorbed all these bugs, turning them into extremely concentrated nutrients and storing them on the spacecraft.
Only some bugs that it evolved in the two days after Chen Ming drove his spaceship to harass it were left on standby, which could fly short distances in space.
Relying on nutrients fed back by a large number of insects and biomass converted from spacecraft fuel taken away on the space station in advance.
The insect queen controlled the spacecraft very unfamiliarly and slowly flew outside the galaxy, and started to accelerate relying on the spacecraft's barely running engine.
Just like Chen Ming once did, the insect queen relied on 99% of the speed of light that could be reached by civilian spaceships, and reached another barren, undeveloped galaxy closer to the interior of the empire and staggered from Chen Ming.
Before entering the galaxy, the spacecraft began to send distress signals to the outside world under the control of the insect queen.
And this actually attracted a spaceship.
Coincidentally, the people on this spaceship are also pirates.
The pirates immediately took control of this weird and unscannable spacecraft and sent people to board it.
Then, they experienced what a horror movie is.
Anyway, the queen spent a few more days in space changing ships.
Then they directly activated the hyperspace channel system and entered hyperspace.
Chen Ming didn't even know how the insect queen did it, but it just got in.
The insect queen drove her new spaceship into hyperspace, and like a novice piloting a spaceship for the first time, she flew unsteadily toward the outside of the empire and passed through countless galaxies.
The Queen is not very fast because she still needs to adapt.
And something needs to be done.
In the process, it gradually became proficient in controlling the spacecraft.
Moreover, components on the spacecraft were continuously and actively discarded into hyperspace.
As for those parts that were actively discarded, the insect queen herself evolved biological tissues that could replace them.
Starting with the most basic armor, then weapons, and then gradually moving to various internal infrastructure and facilities.
From some equipment that doesn't matter if it is lost, to the most important spacecraft control center of the entire spacecraft, it is gradually replaced by the insect queen herself, the "brain" of the Zerg.
Along with the spacecraft control center, what was eliminated was the internal data flow transfer circuit of the spacecraft, which was replaced by the nerve bundles extending from the body of the insect queen.
The entire spaceship has almost completely become a part of the Insect Queen.
In addition to being equipped with the engine of the hyperspace channel system.
But this engine was also thrown out by the Queen of Insects about half a month later.
When Chen Ming saw the biomass engine nozzle in his memory ejecting the unique gray-green tail flame of the Zerg biological spacecraft mixed with black impurities.
He knew that bugs must be a huge trouble to humans.
At the same time, for him, it is also a treasure waiting to be exploited.
However, there is one thing on the spaceship that the Zerg failed to evolve: the spacecraft shield.
In the Queen's memory, the pirate's spaceship that she grabbed behind did have an unsuitable spacecraft shield module.
But when it tried to evolve the spacecraft shield, it found that it could only evolve a mess of proliferated flesh and blood, and was completely unable to build a biological tissue that was as effective as the spacecraft shield module.
So in the end it chose to give up and relocated the heart to the position of the shield, and it also resided in the heart again.
Moreover, after the shield evolution failed, the Insect Queen deliberately continued to thicken and strengthen the Zerg carapace outside many biological spaceships.
At this point, the biomass spacecraft has truly appeared in the universe.
This is how the Thrawn queen developed in space.
After this, the Queen continued to slowly wander through hyperspace.
It chose what it found in the original spacecraft computer and the star map it could understand, which was a relatively safe direction outside the territory of Afterglow and the Machine Tribe.
Every time it passes through a galaxy, the queen will leave hyperspace for a period of time to search for valuable planets inside the galaxy, and collect some supplies along the way.
The Zerg can eat anything, and the rigid digestive sac of the biomass spaceship also allows it to digest many strange things, so obtaining supplies is not troublesome for the queen.
But its route did not include the few valuable galaxies that Chen Ming had found before, so it could almost only search for supplies along the way.
Until it came to the galaxy where Chen Ming is now.
In this galaxy, the insect queen finally found a valuable planet, that is, a planet with a mechanical city.
But at this time, the insect queen unexpectedly discovered that it was in the orbit of this planet.
There is another tribe of Thorn Zerg.
In an asteroid similar to the one where the Queen once resided, there was a dormant Thorne Zerg nest.
Then the insect queen attacked the group.
The biomass spacecraft gained an advantage in range by relying on the evolved frigate-level weapons, small acid jet capsules.
Although Chen Ming didn't think this was very good before.
But with the memory of the insect queen, I learned more details about this biological weapon.
I learned that this small acid jet capsule can accurately kill with a range of up to four kilometers by relying on the strong muscles twisted under the Zerg carapace.
It has a higher range than the weapons used by ordinary civilian ships to protect against small meteorites and small pirate ships, and is even stronger than civilian weapons.
Chen Mingcai discovered that the Zerg's biological weapons did not seem to be as bad as he thought.
As long as there is a suitable environment, it can always produce good results.
However, the nature of the Zerg itself is biased towards melee combat, and the use of Zerg "fighters" has not changed.
Therefore, the small-scale battle that broke out between the two groups ended quickly after being suppressed by acid fire and then by the Zerg "warplanes" breaking into the nest.
The one on the spaceship...no, it should be the insect queen who has become a biological spacecraft, after devouring the other party's insect queen.
Some strange reactions occurred between the genes of the two queens.
It has an effect similar to gene catalysis.
Let the insect queen evolve again.
This evolution is very special.
The biomass spacecraft first attached itself to the asteroid and began to feed continuously.
The queen eats the nutrients of dead bugs, metal ores, and a gelatinous food transformed by the insect's specialized nutritional bugs, which is shellac.
After almost eating up the asteroid, a large amount of growth overflowed from the carapace of the biomass spacecraft, completely enveloping the biospaceship like a cocoon.
During this process, the size of the cocoon continues to grow.
It wasn't until half a month later that the biomass spacecraft emerged from the cocoon, and the original frigate's size surged to the level of a destroyer.
This time the evolution is completely complete.
After this.
The Queen laid a special egg, leaving a portion of the Zerg behind in the asteroid it occupied.
Then it left the galaxy and continued to the depths of the starry sky.
The egg left here hatched soon after and inherited most of the Queen's memories.
After hatching, she became the new insect queen who stayed on the asteroid.
It relied on devouring the cocoon and some remaining nutrients left by its mother to evolve a destroyer-level biomass spacecraft again and landed on the planet below.
It wants to breed, it wants to make this planet a part of it.
Although the mechanical tribe reacted very quickly when the new insect queen landed, they immediately made full preparations for battle and excluded many mechanical tribes from pursuing it.
But the insect queen escaped from the pursuit of the mechanical clan faster than the mechanical clan was chasing and killing her, even after the mechanical clan lost the trace of the insect queen and went into hibernation again.
The insect queen also quietly parasitized the city of the mechanical race, causing it to develop faster than its mother who only had an abandoned space station.
But no matter how fast it is, it still takes time.
Although the size of the insect nest is close to that of a city, it is not enough to have a head-on battle with the mechanical race and achieve a suitable exchange ratio. He still needs to continue to develop.
But the accident happened again.
When Chen Ming's robot also landed on the planet and entered the city of the mechanical tribe, the Queen of Insects suddenly chose to expose herself and attacked the city of the mechanical tribe.
The reason for this lies in Chen Ming.
The reason why the insect queen suddenly failed to develop was because it sensed Chen Ming's existence.
By stating that the smell left on the gamma core and the robot is the pheromone for these Zerg.
Although for the Zerg, there is not much hatred in many things, but only life and death on the road to survival.
Therefore, even if there is a conflict with the Zerg, it is impossible for the Zerg to come and retaliate without thinking.
Of course, this is an ordinary situation, but Chen Ming is obviously not ordinary.
Because he had left a deep impression on the Insect Queen who was still hiding in the power generation area on the space station.
The first non-Zerg creature I encountered after sleeping on the space station for more than thirty years.
As a result, they harassed it every now and then and stole things from the space station that they had considered their territory.
Kill large numbers of zerg and larvae in order to test the weapon.
Destroy the space station that serves as their lair.
In the end, it even ended up waiting for half a month in vain like Wang Fu Shi.
No matter which insect queen is picked out alone, it is impossible to let Chen Ming go. No matter how many times the Zerg conflict with other creatures, they will not produce hatred, but simply compete to the death for survival.
With Chen Ming causing trouble like this, it's impossible not to hate Chen Ming.
So apparently the descendants of that insect queen on the space station did the same after inheriting their mother's memories.
When it sensed Chen Ming, it instinctively and angrily sent out a group of Zerg to pursue Chen Ming's clues.
And then there's what happened before.
At this point, Chen Ming finally understood the whole story.
He loosened his grip on the ganglion.
He lowered his head slightly and thought.
The queen he controls now is not the queen on the space station, but its descendant.
This means that he may still encounter the insect queen on the space station in the future, and the insect queen will still hold full hatred for Chen Ming.
Um……
Not a big problem.
Chen Ming is not afraid of any enemy now.
And the universe is so big, it is extremely unlikely that he will encounter the descendants of that insect queen now.
The probability of encountering that insect queen again in the future is almost non-existent.
Wait a moment, Chen Ming suddenly realized something when he thought about this small probability event.
Although there are differences between biological spaceships and ordinary spaceships, they are similar in many places.
For example, they can all rely on Chen Ming's spiritual power to perform some special operations.
Such as renovation.
However, transforming the spacecraft requires Chen Ming to master relevant technologies.
And the biological spacecraft...
"hiss……"
"Did I just think yesterday that I don't need to study biotechnology in my life..."
At this moment, Chen Ming remembered what Lao Wu said about him being a crow's mouth some time ago.
Then he thought about what he seemed to have just said, that he would never meet the Thorne Zerg Queen in his life.
Chen Ming was silent for a moment and decided that it would be better to talk less and do more in the future.
Start now.
Chen Ming then opened the biological panel.
Although he knew that biological spaceships could also be modified, he had just discovered it.
The transformation panel of the biological spaceship seems to be a little different from that of the ordinary spaceship.
The column for modification options for ordinary spacecraft components or the spacecraft itself is [Executable operations: repair/modify/dismantle]
As for the column of the biomass spacecraft, it is [executable operations: repair/evolution/decomposition/gene retrospection]
