Chapter 193 Dehydration
"How are the preparations going?"
After leaving the game square, Li Ang went to the Gate World to check the preparation status of the insect nest.
He stepped on the invisible stairs and climbed to the sky above the imperial capital of the Gate World. Surrounded by a large number of giant manta ray-like nest brainworms - these brainworms are the executors of the expansion plan of the Gate World, and are now reporting their work to Li Ang.
"The Hive has built fifty city buildings on different continents of this planet. Each building accommodates between 40 million and 50 million residents. According to statistics, the total population is more than 2.267 billion. , accounting for 99.1% of the planet's total population.
The remaining ones are indigenous people who live on isolated islands overseas and have never integrated into the civilized world.
Because they were too scattered and difficult to integrate, the Hive did not collect them. The Cerebrate Council believed that allowing some indigenous residents to live outside the Hive's rule could increase the mutation rate of intelligent creatures on the planet and maintain intelligent civilization. Activity is worth observing. "
The one who made the report was the Hive Lord Cerberus.
In the worm nest brainworm sequence, Leviathan has been following Leon, staying in the automated pet breeding box, and is responsible for the ecological environment management in the box.
Behemoth, Jormungandr, and Gorgon are the motherships of the three undersea Hive Fleets in the Pacific.
Fenrir and the Two-Blade Turkey manage the Genestealer Program in South Asia, India, and other continents around the world,
Cerebrates such as Chimera and Kraken are responsible for maintaining the operation of the insect nests under the Pacific Ocean.
The current number of brain worms has reached 500, which is close to saturation.
As the hive lord, Cerberus is the lord of flesh and swamps, coordinating and managing the entire gate world.
Li Ang looked down at the surface scene below,
The original 19th-century Victorian-style city has now been transformed into an entire steel building—such a design is naturally an imitation of a real-world city building that can support the largest population in a limited space.
Cerberus continued: "Under the unified management of the insect nest, all residents live in a honeycomb-shaped community as a family unit. The houses are made of steel and plants and can change their shape according to the daily habits of the residents. They will not Appear crowded or empty.
The building has sufficient sunshine, suitable temperature and rain, and residents only need to spend a little effort cultivating the crops growing vigorously in the courtyard to harvest sufficient staple food. No one will starve, freeze or even starve to death.
Compared with previous eras, the happiness of most people has been improved.
And if residents want to eat more abundant food, they only need to apply to the community manager (the hive does not directly manage the humans in the hive community, but selects human representatives to manage it on their behalf), and they can obtain a rich variety of food. Crop seeds. "
"Using labor to revitalize the souls of residents?"
Li Ang nodded. In fact, with the current technical strength of the insect nest, let alone raising 2.2 billion ordinary people, even if the earth's 7 billion population is added, it can still use outstanding biotechnology to provide massive amounts of food and nutrients every day. It would be no problem even if they were fed haese every day.
The main purpose of asking ordinary people to continue to work and plant crops in the yard is to activate the sanity of ordinary people so that they will not become rotten and rigid in a lifeless environment and be unable to provide high-quality power of faith.
"Yes, he who does not work shall not eat."
Cerberus said: "The basic unit of the hive city is each hive community, and the specific management work in each hive community is the responsibility of human representatives.
Hive brainworms only need to check the overall situation of the floors composed of thousands of hive communities.
Because the ground of the hive community is the lower level creep.
Therefore, the circulation of resources and materials in the hive community cannot be hidden from the hive brainworms.
Any human managers who try to cheat will be discovered and punished as soon as possible. "
"Um."
Li Ang exuded his divine power and observed the giant building housing 50 million people through the thick steel dome of the hive city.
If you look at it from the perspective of ordinary people in the Menfei world, your current life is undoubtedly happy.
In the hive city, the grass is green, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and the climate is suitable.
Everyone has equal status, and there is no status gap - even the humans who manage the community do not enjoy better treatment and have more privileges.
The soil here is fertile, so if you sow some seeds randomly, it won't take long for them to take root, sprout, bloom and bear fruit.
Everyone grows their own food, and the main activity every day is prayer.
There are churches of the Lord of Flesh and Swamp in every corner of the hive city. Everyone must go to the church regularly, listen to the sermons of the priest or the radio, pray devoutly to the statue of the Lord of the Swamp, and thank the gods for the wonderful life.
The Insect Nest will add a number to each person's account based on the power of faith they contribute every day. This number is their "contribution point."
Residents can use these points to get better treatment.
For example, delicacies cooked by chefs from the old era, more colorful clothes (instead of uniforms), and more advanced furniture and appliances.
Folks have buildings such as schools, theaters, and hospitals, entertainment activities such as dramas, operas, concerts, and art exhibitions, as well as bars, restaurants, and other entertainment consumption places——
These consumption places all use personal points to pay. Zombie Nest Brain Worm believes that appropriately opening up some entertainment activities will help keep people’s minds active.
Li Ang asked casually: "The faith points of ordinary residents will not be used up, right?"
“It rarely runs out.”
Cerberus replied: "You have given the inhabitants of this planet a better life, so the vast majority of the indigenous inhabitants are eternally grateful to you.
Only a very small number, before the arrival of the insect hive, the indigenous residents who were the ruling class, hated you and provided little or no power of faith every day. "
"What happens to these people?"
"They can still live in the hive city. Although the hive city is rich in products, ordinary people can survive even if they do not work at all and only eat fungus carpet weeds. However, in the collective fanatical worship of the Lord of flesh and blood and swamp Under such circumstances, those residents with few faith points will receive collective contempt, contempt and cold violence from their communities.”
Cerberus said: "The Hive Council believes that appropriately retaining some such people can serve as a warning in the hive community environment."
Li Ang nodded, "Like a catfish in a school of fish?"
"It's more like, in the school environment of human society, a vulnerable individual in a class who is collectively isolated and bullied. Because there are vulnerable individuals who can be bullied by anyone, that class will become more united..."
As Cerberus was talking, he suddenly realized that the Lord of Flesh and Swamp seemed to have been isolated by the class before. He stopped talking instantly, his sweat glands secreted cold sweat crazily, and his whole body trembled subconsciously, for his unconscious The behavior that offended the great master made me deeply regret and panic.
"Oh, don't be afraid. I am not being isolated, I am isolating everyone else."
Li Ang smiled casually and didn't care, and continued to ask: "What use do they have for accumulating these faith points besides entertainment consumption?"
"The other thing is to be promoted to a transcendent."
Cerberus carefully answered: "There were extraordinary beings in this indigenous world before. Although their power cannot be compared with any hive lord, and is at most close to the hive guards, they still have merit in some aspects." at.
The Hive Council retains the promotion methods of these extraordinary paths. Some fanatics who are devout enough can spend their faith points to purchase the promotion methods and become extraordinary.
If they are pious enough, even if their qualifications are poor, the Hive Cerebrates will provide help and improve their talents.
And these extraordinary people, because their faith is recognized, can accompany the insect army of the Hive Soldiers to go to the dangerous environments of the indigenous world to perform tasks.
For example, collecting genetic samples of wild creatures, investigating the geological environment, recording natural phenomena, etc. "
"Is that so?"
Li Ang nodded, he let go of the restrictions of his divine power, and instantly heard thousands of prayer sounds.
Most of them are grateful for the gift of the Lord of Flesh and Swamp, praising its greatness and praising its achievements.
A few are confused in life and beg for divine guidance.
Only a few of them pray to gods for random things—such as feeling that their neighbors are annoying, or feeling that they are not popular enough in the community, etc.
These low-level prayers cannot contribute much power of faith, but will interfere with Li Ang's thoughts.
Therefore, the Hive will take great pains to publicize in the hive city that residents can only recite the name of the Lord of Flesh and Swamp when they go to church to pray.
Otherwise, if you shout "Oh my God" when you encounter anything, God will definitely be overwhelmed by the torrent of meaningless information like spam text messages.
"The power of faith of 2.2 billion residents, even with the loss of ultra-long-distance transmission and the exploitation of doors,
As long as I keep the door open at all times, it can still provide me with a huge amount of divine power recovery. "
Li Ang calculated it and asked, "Are you ready for other aspects?"
"Ready."
Cerberus replied: "After the Battle of Command begins, the Hive City will enter a state of automatic trusteeship and reduce entertainment activities to a minimum. All residents will go to the community church to pray day and night as a family unit. To ensure that the power of faith will not will be interrupted.
As for the Hive Army..."
Cerberus turned his head and looked at the Cerebrates behind him. The other Cerebrates nodded and released their psychic energy to connect to the giant thinking network formed by countless insect nest units in the Gate World.
Boom——
The earth trembled, the mountains and rivers shook,
Tens of thousands of soldiers and insects of all levels emerged from the ground, countless insect hive ships rose from the oceans, lakes, and rivers, and the insect hive fleet came from the sky and blocked the sky.
“So far, the Hive has collected genetic samples from 3.6 million species on Earth.
700,000 species genetic samples from Killing Fields games (including but not limited to script worlds, vending machine worlds, and species acquired from other players).
5.78 million species genetic samples in the world of Menshu. "
Cerberus Report: "Of all the genetic samples, some were permanently frozen and sealed, some were analyzed and used, and some were transformed by the [Abyss Mirror]. Finally, the brainworm used the synthetic beast production table in the alchemy workshop to make new ones." Types of soldier bugs.
The order of soldiers and insects in the insect nest is still divided into attendant level, beast level, heavy equipment level, fortress level, special level, guard level, guard level and lord level.
In addition, there are ship classes and mothership classes.
The number of servant-level and beast-level soldier insects exceeds three billion. Any insect nest base can be mass-produced if it receives sufficient nutrients. The technical content is low, and the combat effectiveness and movement speed are equivalent to motorcycles on the real earth. Chemical troops.
The number of heavy-duty soldiers is 5.8 million. Since the genetic samples of the wild creatures in Menfei World are exceptionally rich, the Hive Brainworms have used these genes to create more types of heavy-duty soldiers, which are suitable for different environments. battlefield.
The number of fortress-level and special-level insects is 170,000. To make soldiers of this level, you need to use the alienation ability of [Abyss Mirror], and there will be gene collapse, so the number is relatively small.
The number of Guards and Guards classes is similar to the former.
Since transferring troops across the door requires energy from the user, that is, you.
Therefore, the Cerebral Worm Council believes that the most valuable and worthy of transmission first are lower-level insect nest bases that can be quickly deployed;
The worker insects included in the insect nest base;
Special-grade soldier insects that can spray germ blankets and assist the insect nest base;
Scout bugs that can move at high speeds and have telepathic abilities;
Secondly, there is the Guard level and the Guard level, which are used to protect your safety.
Finally, there are heavy-grade, fortress-grade and ship-grade soldiers. "
Cerberus said: "The current guards and guard-level soldiers are equivalent to the strength of high-level extraordinary beings on the earth.
In order to improve transmission efficiency, the brainworms responsible for genetic engineering installed new functions for them based on a mosquito larvae gene that can sleep for a long time.
Dehydration. "
Cerberus turned his head and looked to the side. A bug hive airship mothership suspended in the sky immediately opened its rear deck, revealing a hundred guard bugs hidden below the deck and arranged neatly.
As the Hive Lord issued psychic instructions, the holes in the armor of these Guardsmen immediately began to spurt blood.
A large amount of body fluids flowed out of the body, causing the bodies of these guard bugs to dry up and shrink at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The metal armor, which was strong enough to withstand machine gun fire, also became soft and brittle.
“The principle of dehydration is to expel body fluids, synthesize a large amount of osmoprotectants in the body to replace water, and allow the body to enter a vitrified state, thus gaining extreme tolerance to high temperatures, high pressures, low temperatures, and low pressures.
In the dehydrated state, Guard and Guard-class soldiers will fall into suspended animation.
At the same time, their energy level will be reduced, and the energy 'tolls' they have to pay when crossing the star gate will be reduced.
With the same energy share, more soldiers can be transported.
And after arriving at the other side of the star gate,
These dehydrated soldier bugs only need to be soaked in the advanced nutrient solution in the insect nest base for a period of time to return to combat status.
Fortress-level, heavily-armed-level and other soldier insects can also undergo the same dehydration treatment. "
After listening to Cerberus's report, Li Ang glanced at the insect nest army that was covering the sky, nodded and said: "Then, let's start dehydration."
