Devouring the Stars: Zerg Overlord

Chapter 59 Debugging Zerg

"Haha, my previous decision was correct!"

In the first nest of the swarm in the wilderness, Qin Mu's consciousness laughed.

A purple fungal blanket spreads within a radius of more than ten miles of this nest, and various plants grow densely on the fungal blanket, which covers the fungal blanket on the ground.

When the fungal blanket spreads, any plant will be swallowed by it, even some insects and small animals.

So these plants growing on the fungal blanket are not ordinary plants, but are cultivated by the nest.

These plants belonging to the swarm are not much different from ordinary plants, except that the underground roots are connected to the fungal blanket, and the energy generated by photosynthesis is transmitted to the nest through these roots.

Although the energy collected by a tree is small, the energy collected by all the trees within a radius of more than ten miles is not a small number.

This energy is enough to provide the daily energy consumption of the swarm under the control of this nest.

But this is not the reason why Qin Mu is so happy.

In the fungal carpet around the mother nest, the color of some fungal carpets is different from the other weird purple. It is emerald green like moss, a color full of vitality.

This emerald green fungal carpet, this is why Qin Mu is so happy.

In the past half month, Qin Mu has spent most of his time in the laboratory of the First Military Academy in Jiangnan.

After devoting himself to the study of biology, Qin Mu's biological knowledge level has progressed rapidly.

After finally learning the knowledge of bioengineering systematically as he wished, he even tried to conduct some simple experiments with his special status in the laboratory.

After accumulating experiments these days, Qin Mu kept trying in the mother nest, trying to edit the gene fragment representing the color of moss and integrate it into the fungal carpet.

He succeeded!

Although only a little bit of the color of the fungal carpet was modified, no other functions changed.

But Qin Mu did succeed!

"The purple fungal carpet looks too eye-catching, it feels too weird, and it doesn't look like a good place."

Qin Mu was in a good mood.

The green fungal carpet around the mother nest continued to spread, spread and radiate.

Don't underestimate this little color change, it means that Qin Mu has already stepped into the threshold of biological modulation.

From now on, the fungal blanket of the Zerg can be freed from some restrictions, and it doesn't have to be hidden like before, just around the mother nest.

Once the purple fungal blanket spreads on the earth on a large scale, it is totally incompatible with the native environment of the earth. Not only will humans come to investigate, but even monsters will feel disgusted. But it is different when it is replaced with the green of ordinary plants.

Almost no one or monster will pay attention to a group of green plants, especially when it is covered with other plants and is not aggressive.

Even if an abnormality is found, most people will think it is just an ordinary mutant plant.

This is too normal in the wilderness full of monsters.

The large-scale spread of fungal blankets will bring a huge amount of energy to the Zerg, greatly alleviating the logistical pressure caused by the increasing size of the Zerg.

The current Zerg has only 30 mother nests. Under full reproduction, more than 200,000 Zerg units can be reproduced in a day. After half a month, the size of the Zerg has reached more than 3 million.

More than three million Zergs, the energy consumed by daily activities alone is an astonishing figure.

Among the thirty mother nests of the Zerg, except for a few mother nests in City 023, which are relatively concentrated, the others are scattered, so the logistical pressure is not obvious.

They can hunt and obtain energy on their own.

But if this data is expanded a little bit, or when they gather together, the pressure will be prominent.

At that time, Qin Mu will have to launch a large-scale war to obtain energy for the hungry Zerg.

The Zerg will turn into the terrifying natural disaster that devours everything in the image.

The fungal blanket expands over a large area, can draw energy from the ground, and can also obtain energy through photosynthesis of trees, which can greatly delay the occurrence of this situation.

"Transform all fungal blankets and start expanding!"

Not only this mother nest, the fungal blankets around the thirty mother nests began to change color, from weird purple to vibrant emerald green.

The fungal blankets began to spread, and these emerald green fungal blankets devoured all the plants along the way.

After these plants were devoured, new plants grew on the fungal blanket, which were no different from the original ordinary plants, except that their roots were tightly connected to the fungal blanket and began to provide energy for the swarm.

"Maybe I can start trying to modulate real Zerg units?"

"Not just Zerg units, when the level of biological modulation reaches a certain level, I can consider strengthening my own body."

"Absorb excellent gene structures, transform my own genes, and increase the gene multiples of my body."

"The physical fitness and even potential of humans on Earth are far behind those of humans in the universe."

Qin Mu's eyes were full of ambition.

As the master of the swarm, how could he not want to increase his own gene multiples?

"Starting with the most familiar Tiger Ao Dog, this Tiger Ao Dog once evolved the first new unit of the swarm, the unicorn Tiger Ao Dog, which must be a good start."

Qin Mu started a new attempt with great interest.

In the evolution chamber of the mother nest, the genetic structure of the Tiger Ao Dog was adjusted out, and at the same time, a wolf genetic structure was also adjusted out.

"Well, the bite force and endurance of this wolf-like monster are stronger than those of the Tiger Ao Dog. Let's start from this aspect!"

With Qin Mu's almost instinctive talent, pieces of complex genetic information were cut and copied, and then integrated into the genes of the Hu Ao dog.

It's just that Qin Mu's operation was too rough, and it was almost forcibly spliced ​​together.

As expected, the originally perfect life genetic structure of Hu Ao Dog collapsed directly.

Although he failed, Qin Mu was not hit.

Experiments are not so easy to succeed.

The information recorded in the brood was retrieved, and a new round of gene editing and reorganization began.

Tried again and again, failed again and again.

I don't know how much time had passed, but Qin Mu was already a little tired.

"Huh? You didn't collapse directly this time?"

Qin Mu was shocked when he looked at a somewhat messy genetic structure map in the evolution chamber.

"Is this a success? Just use this template to hatch it and take a look!"

The energized Qin Mu was no longer tired, and immediately controlled a larva to hatch an unknown Zerg unit with this genetic structure.

Twenty minutes later, after spending more than a hundred points of energy, a two-meter-high insect egg appeared near the mother nest.

"Haha, I am indeed a genius..."

Qin Mu fell silent as he watched the insect eggs burst open, revealing a strange creature with eight legs, two heads, and three eyes lying on the ground like a puddle of mud, unable to move.

In his idea, he just integrated the genes of some of the muscle cells of the wolf monster into the genes of the tiger Ao dog, and what emerged should be a stronger tiger Ao dog.

But what is this thing in front of me?

"It's not a complete failure. At least this thing survived. It can be considered a new creature, right?"

Qin Mu comforted himself.

However, the next moment, the skin of this strange creature cracked, the bones dissolved, and the entire life structure collapsed on itself.

"I knew it wasn't that simple!"

After his consciousness returned to the human body, Qin Mu no longer forcibly prepared new Zerg units.

His current biological knowledge is obviously not enough to perform such high-end operations. It would be good to be able to change the color of the creep.

He stood up from the sofa where he was lying and stretched.

Qin Mu's current location is a graduate apartment in the Jiangnan First Military Academy. It has a single room and a good environment.

Of course, normal students don't get this kind of treatment, but with Professor Zhou's relationship and his own strength and status, it's natural.

He walked to the computer desk nearby, glanced at an unread email, and opened the inbox.

An unread email titled "Departure Notice for Ancient Civilization Relics" popped up. The moment he saw the title, Qin Mu perked up.

"Qin Mu God of War:

Please arrive at the Southeast Military Region Headquarters at 12 noon on September 29th to gather with other Gods of War and go to the ‘No. 9 Ancient Civilization Ruins’ together.

I want to remind you of the following points:

1. The No. 9 ancient civilization ruins you applied to enter is the only place where you can get the ‘Black God Set’. The death and disability rate of God of War is about 72%. Success rate 28%

2. Everyone has only one chance to enter the ‘Ancient Civilization Ruins No. 9’!

3. Warriors who enter the 'Ancient Civilization Ruins No. 9' are prohibited from using the Black God suit, and warriors with different strengths encounter challenges, dangers, and varying degrees of difficulty. However, so far, there has been no death of a high-level God of War spiritual master.

4. The No. 9 ancient civilization relic warrior assessment is different from the spiritual teacher assessment...

Li Dawei, Southeast Military Region

September 23, 2056"

After reading the email, I found that it was sent by Li Dawei from the Southeast Military Region. It contained nearly ten reminders, all of which were about precautions in the ruins.

Qin Mu could feel the concern from between the lines.

Qin Mu only met Li Dawei from the Southeast Military Region once, at the welcome banquet when he passed the examination of the God of War Palace.

Half a month ago, Qin Mu joined the God of War Palace, numbered 3512, and his strength was certified as the invincible God of War.

At the welcome banquet at the God of War Palace, Qin Mu got to know most of the war gods of the military. Among them, Li Dawei of the Southeast Military Region was a war god who impressed Qin Mu deeply.

Although he only has the strength of an intermediate God of War, he takes great care of himself in his words.

After joining the Ares Palace, Qin Mu took the initiative to apply to enter Ruin No. 9. Today, he finally passed the review.

"I finally passed it. I was worried that they wouldn't let me go."

After reading the email carefully, Qin Mu showed a relaxed expression on his face.

He had sent out this application for more than ten days, and there had been no reply before, which made him a little worried.
