Warhammer III
Chapter 40 Investigation
"Are you sure this is an alien creature that appeared during the Great Crusade?"
Tai Yue looked at Della and asked. The latter nodded and gave an explanation:
"The 60% possibility is the bone-drinking flower. This creature is a fungus-like alien creature. They can suck the biomass of animals through mycelium. In the process, they will release toxins to paralyze the prey. The entire sucking process is harmful to the victim. It's slow and painful.
When I was working at the Alien Tribunal, I reviewed some confidential information recorded by the Tribunal, including the aliens that were exterminated by the Empire during the Great Crusade. The hyphae and bone-drinking flowers in the images not only looked exactly the same, but also had the ability to wrap around and suck the marrow of the spine. Same thing too. "
"Why 60% probability?"
"According to the records of the Tribunal, the bone-drinking flowers are conscious. Their consciousness exists in the flowers. The flowers transmit information through pollination, forming a complex network of consciousness. If there are conscious flowers in the hyphae, they can 100% sure it’s the bone-drinking flower.”
"Isn't it just motile fungi? Motile plants pose no threat to us!"
Bruce said contemptuously.
Della shook her head and added more information:
Bone-drinking flowers spread through spores, and it is difficult to eliminate them completely. After the hyphae grow to a certain size, they will bloom and form consciousness, and then weave traps to attack any animal, including humans.
This alien will keep its victims in captivity when there is enough food, and will use tricks to destroy the enemy when in danger. During the Great Crusade, the Imperial forces encountered multiple planets completely controlled by the Bone-Drinking Flower. This behavior The star-studded aggregation of creatures even wiped out the unsuspecting Astartes troops.
The Space Wolves and the Night Lords' Astartes were ordered to destroy the Bonedrinker, but they were still not completely eradicated. In the end, the Alpha Legion and the Mechanicum teamed up to use virus weapons to purify the alien.
[A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, and a source-changing app used by old bookworms,]
"So the rebellious Alpha Legion did not completely eliminate the Bone Drinking Flower, they retained this alien form!"
Tai Yue said seriously, which further indicated that it was the Chaos Space Marines of the Alpha Legion who had infiltrated the planet.
After a temporary discussion, everyone decided to let Jerome, Bruce and Nelson defend the food synthesis factory. Taiyue and Della went to investigate the Bone Drinking Flower.
"Your Majesty the God Emperor, the enemy has begun to take action. You must guard this food synthesis factory."
After Taiyue gave the order to the three of them, he and Della took the defense force's transport plane and headed to a fortress near the equator.
This fortress is almost falling. Important locations such as ammunition warehouses and granaries have been lost. Alien fungi have invaded most of the fortress. Sooner or later, this place will become the alien's lair.
A group of Iron Guard tanks gathered around the fortress, ready to destroy the entire fortress at any time, but this could not completely clear the spores in the air. The air waves of the explosion might even spread the spores farther away.
The defense forces inside the fortress use flamethrowers to burn the wriggling mycelium. These mycelium will actively avoid the flames when exposed to the flames. However, where there are no flames, more mycelium will attack the defense forces, and there are still some mycelium. It popped up directly from the ground and was hard to guard against.
Tai Yue also disguised himself as a servitor this time, but the difference was that he carried weapons, a flamethrower in his left hand and a power chain saw in his right hand.
While using flames to disperse the approaching hyphae to clear the way for Della, he wielded a power chain saw to cut off the hyphae blocking the passage. Some of the hyphae still wanted to enter his body, but the skin formed by the metal cells completely blocked.
The two quickly entered an area with dense mycelium. The defense forces did not dare to follow them and could only watch Della Sage and her servitors disappear in front.
The weapon in Taiyue's hand was eventually entangled with mycelium, and part of the mycelium entered the weapon. He had no choice but to give up the two weapons.
"These hyphae can't break through our metal cells, so why not let this alien take us in!"
After Tai Yue finished speaking, he held Della in his arms and let the mycelium wrap around the two of them, eventually forming a sphere.
Soon after, the mycelial sphere carried the two of them deep into the fortress.
Weird white flowers bloomed in front. When Taiyue and Della were brought here, the flowers turned around like human faces, and the flower core captured shock waves and smell molecules.
It observed inedible food curiously.
