How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 869 World Cage

In a piece of void, there are floating corpses left by various amoeba creatures.

This is a cemetery, the cemetery left by amoeba creatures. Before sublimating into a successor, no gatherer can resist the forged instructions of the great destruction.

Just overnight, a large number of creatures began to die, not only the death of consciousness, but also the death of every cell.

Their deaths constitute the present space cemetery.

However, in this amoeba cemetery, not all corpses represent death, there are still living creatures in this area.

With a planet as the core, spaceships shuttle among the corpses of various amoeba creatures, and transport various material resources left by the amoeba creatures to the planet.

The surface of the planet is covered by machinery, and a ring-shaped structure is synchronized with the rotation of the planet itself, giving these spaceships a dockable starport.

This is the mother planet of the empire - Serin.

After the catastrophe hit, the empire was brought into a super-light state as amoeba's scientific research resources to avoid the supernova strike of the catastrophe.

As the clusters of gatherers shuttled through one star system after another, they witnessed supernova explosions again and again, and later, the clusters of gatherers died out collectively because of the forged instructions of mass destruction.

Today's empire can be said to have finally regained its freedom.

"The head of state."

A scientific chief walked into the room, and before he could speak, he was questioned by the head of state.

"How is the repair progress? How far is it?"

"The main problem is the active part. Part of the amoeba's technology uses living body technology, and this part plays a 'control' role in the amoeba's technology, similar to our computers and on-off valves."

The science chief was talking about the superluminal structure built by the collectors on Serin.

This super-light-speed structure is also affected by the counterfeit command of the great destruction, and a part of the inner part is damaged, and it is unable to make the planet go into the super-light-speed.

This superluminal structure can be understood as a giant creature attached to the planet. The collectors who built the superluminal structure did not want to hand over such important technology to the empire, so they activated and constructed the huge structure that allowed the planet to go superluminous.

"After the destruction of that radio message, all the active parts of the amoeba technology died, and the control of the ring was lost. This is the fundamental reason why superluminal speed cannot be carried out."

"So, we used nanomachines to replace the missing active parts in the amoeba technology, and acted as the 'control' role in the amoeba technology. Now it is almost completed, and the preliminary trial flight can be carried out soon."

The death of the active part of the superluminal structure can also be understood as the death of the 'operator' in a disguised form.

Based on this principle, as long as the job of the 'operator' is inherited through nanomachines, the superluminal structure can be restored to normal operation.

Of course, this is a general principle, and the details are still very difficult, because there is a big difference between cells on the one hand and nanomachines on the other.

"Have you not cracked the superluminal technology of the amoeba?" the head of state asked.

The scientific chief who was worried about being held accountable hurriedly answered.

"Prince, it is very difficult to decipher the superluminal technology of amoeba. One is the material technology, the other is the construction process, and the third is the internal structure."

"The amoeba has created a ring-shaped black hole, and the strong gravitational force constrains the elementary particles that make up the pipeline to stick together tightly, forming a material layer that even ultra-high frequency lasers cannot penetrate. This is the gravitational ring of the amoeba. The principle is not complicated, but... the actual implementation is not so easy."

"Just like a person, all we can do is to clone a person with exactly the same appearance through genetic coding, but amoeba can not only have the same appearance, but also the location and number of cells on the body are exactly the same. The difference in technology prevents us from building a gravitational ring like the amoeba."

"It is already the limit of our current industrial capabilities to replace the active part of the superluminal structure with nanomachines as it is now."

The head of state nodded in understanding. He has no idea of ​​accountability. The gap in industrial capabilities cannot be smoothed out by the efforts of one or two people. What is needed is a fundamental innovation by accident, that is, a technical break out.

However, understanding is understanding, and the urging should still be urged.

The head of state said, "Since it is the limit, then you should find a way to break through. Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, understand?"

"Because of the great destruction, the amoeba has no time to care about other things, and even because of the heavy damage, it has sharply shrunk its dominance over the river system."

"If you want to get rid of the amoeba and get rid of the vassals, the empire should seize the opportunity now."

Hearing what the head of state said, the chief of science saluted the head of state solemnly, with a raging fire in his eyes. The fire represented the ambition of a civilization and the heavy responsibility for the future of civilization.

For this goal, everyone in the empire can do everything they can.

They walked all the way in such adversity, even the mighty amoeba could not break their unyielding backbone.

"We all understand what you said. The Society of Science has been stepping up the analysis of the various technologies left by the amoeba."

After hesitating for a moment, the Chief Science Officer spoke again.

"In addition to reporting to you on the restoration of the superluminal project, there is one more thing I want to ask you for instructions."

"explain."

"What's the next step for the empire?" asked the chief of science.

He was talking about the future path of the empire. Thinking of this, the head of state murmured, "Whether the amoeba defeats the great destruction, or the great destruction defeats the amoeba, it is not good for us."

If the amoeba wins, the empire will become a vassal again. If the catastrophe wins, the empire may become the next amoeba. It is impossible to stand still forever, and if the Great Destruction can destroy the amoeba, it means that the Great Destruction is more powerful and terrifying than the amoeba.

So what the Führer really wants is not who wins, but that neither of them wins.

"The two will die together is the best situation for the empire, but I also know that the possibility of this is very low..."

The Führer sighed, he knew very well that this was just a delusion, just like a gambler hopes that after the coin hits the ground, the heads and tails will not face down, but stand upright.

"So, the next step for the empire after completing the FTL project should be to leave here, leave our mother river system, go to a new river system, and seek development there."

"Although I don't know if there is a catastrophe or another amoeba in other river systems, it's better than letting the empire and the present two terrifying existences head-to-head."

The scientific chief who understood the Führer's decision looked solemn and answered.

"I understand what you mean, and this will convey the order."

...

Time flies, because the catastrophe is only for the amoeba, and the empire can complete the construction project without any hindrance.

The restoration of the superluminal structure was completed quickly, and the empire took Serene, which moved at superluminal speed, and headed out of the river system.

The idea of ​​the empire is to go to another river system and seek development there. Even if there is an equally powerful civilization there, as long as it hides in the dark and is low-key enough, it will not be targeted and can have more room for development than the mother river system .

The idea is good, but the actual implementation is not as good as they thought...

"Führer! We can't go!"

Some subordinates reported to the head of state in a panic.

"What's going on? Make it clear!" the head of state asked displeasedly.

"I don't know why, we should keep moving away from the mother river system, but after reaching a certain position, we keep approaching the mother river system! We can't leave the mother river system!"
