Chapter 251 Pseudo-fourth-order life form, artistic conception test

"What do you think?"

After confirming that Shen Jie had gone far and left the underground insect nest, Lin Feng stared at the dark hole where his figure disappeared and suddenly spoke.

Zhiyi frowned slightly and looked back at Jiang Yuner who was adjusting the Queen Mother's breeding suit on the other side of the pyramid.

The other party immediately put away his gossip, turned sideways, lowered his head and worked seriously.

Then she gave her own opinion:

"Shen Jie didn't lie. The scene he described is almost the same as the seal scene left by the Insect King."

"The question is, who pulled him out of his artistic conception in the end?"

"Generally speaking, without fourth-level spiritual power, it is difficult to forcibly awaken a lost soul from the spiritual world."

Lin Feng was also thinking about this matter.

But soon, the quick thinking from the third-order brain, through retrieval and analogy, made him think of a possibility:

"Tell me, could it be my mother?"

Zhizi was stunned for a moment, and then his expression suddenly changed.

Lin Feng then said her rhetorical question:

"But you said that only true fourth-level life forms can leave their own artistic conception inheritance in the blood of the ethnic group."

"My mother only has broken spiritual attributes. How could she appear in Shen Jie's artistic conception inheritance?"

After listening to Lin Feng's supplementary question, Zhiyi frowned even more. Just as Lin Feng said, things became more and more strange.

It can be confirmed that what Shen Jie heard in his coma was indeed a human voice, and it must have come from another part of human blood in his body.

But it is impossible for humans to have existed fourth-order life forms...

Otherwise, before the arrival of the Zerg, it would not have remained in a state of fragmentation, with many countries standing and constant disputes for thousands of years.

You must know that any fourth-order cosmic life can easily unify the world. The meaning and responsibility of its birth is to lead its own ethnic group.

Go to the universe and expand the living space of civilization!

With humanity's original state of scientific and technological development, the possibility of a fourth-order life form being born tends to zero.

Even Lin Feng's mother's half-step fourth-level achievement shocked the cockroach.

In order to find the source of the sound, a bright golden light appeared in the eyes of the cricket, and he used the power of artistic conception to work crazily in the amethyst brain.

It wasn't until a moment later that she spoke slowly and gave the only explanation she found:

"I searched and browsed through the ocean of knowledge passed down by the Zerg race for hundreds of millions of years..."

"Finally found a similar case."

Lin Feng looked serious. These information and knowledge are all intangible treasures that can be encountered but cannot be found. Only the gods who have inherited it for hundreds of millions of years can accumulate such a foundation.

Zhiyi took a deep breath and said softly:

"Because of the uniqueness of fourth-level life forms, it takes millions or even tens of millions of years for a strong fourth-level person to be born within the same ethnic group..."

"And in this long river of time, there are countless third-level life forms that can evolve, like the crucian carp crossing the river."

"There are also some extremely talented evolutionary geniuses among them. In order to continue to break through the shackles of life evolution, they chose to give up the long accumulation of physical qualitative changes..."

"Turn to the wrong side, put spiritual improvement first, and strive to continue to extend life."

"So a lot of peak third-level beings with broken limits of spiritual power were born."

"They are also called... pseudo-fourth-order life forms."

"But physique and spirit are themselves a path of evolution that complements each other. Just like a bicycle, only two wheels are stable and can go a long way."

"Walking with a single wheel is like walking on a tightrope with a single wheel. Every step is accompanied by many dangers."

"Especially after ten thousand years at the peak of the third level, their bodies have reached the age of rotten wood, and their physical strength has dropped to the early stage of the third level, or even lower."

"At that time, the majestic spiritual energy stored in the brain will turn from a reliance on survival to a deadly poison."

"Without a strong physique as a moat, an aging pseudo-fourth-level life form, after exceeding the end of its original lifespan, is like a plastic bag filled with a pool of lake water, with the possibility of overflowing and bursting at any time. As time goes by, Time gradually becomes fragile.”

"In this way, in order to continue to survive, they have only one way, and that is to plunder the fresh bodies of other third-level life forms of the new generation in the same race."

"According to you humans, it's a body snatching."

Lin Feng frowned slightly:

"They can't clone their own bodies? The Zerg biotechnology is so advanced, it shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Zhiyi rolled his eyes at him and said speechlessly:

"The number of divisions of any cell is limited. As long as it has not escaped the category of material life, it cannot escape the distortion of genetic information under the law of entropy increase until it decays, or forgets everything and becomes an idiot."

"Of course, if you just want to live and would rather become a pile of rotten meat without self-awareness, then just become a biological meat nest."

"Otherwise, why do fourth-order life forms need to integrate ethnic genes to expand their sample capacity?"

"There is an upper limit to the life energy that each gene can contain. The entire group must reproduce to a certain extent and have enough genetic samples. Only after collecting and fusing them can the so-called uniqueness be condensed."

"The reason why kings are kings is that the complete sequence in their bodies can accommodate infinite amounts of energy, cultivate the power of different realms, and finally condense the immortal kingdom of God at the peak of the sixth level."

"The fourth level is called cosmic life, also because from this point on, life has already embarked on the long stage of becoming a god."

"The road has been paved, all that remains is to continue to accommodate and nurture more artistic conception..."

"So cloned cells are completely useless, especially for a third-level powerhouse with a life span of ten thousand years."

"Its aging is a sharp reduction in the capacity of life energy, and the body is like a shrinking measuring cup, rather than simple organ aging."

"It is precisely because of this that we need to plunder fresh bodies and directly obtain new containers that are still growing."

"But this process is very dangerous. After all, the entire brain and brain-medullary crystals must be transferred to the new body. At the same time, the rejection reaction of both parties must be reduced. Although most of them will select excellent seeds from more than ten generations of their own blood relatives to Avoid disharmony between spirit and body.”

Speaking of this, under Lin Feng's shocked eyes, Chi changed the topic and said in a low tone:

"There are records of a pseudo-fourth-level life form that has lived for 100,000 years. When it changed its body for the tenth time, its spiritual power reached the third-level peak several times, which is equivalent to a late-level fourth-level existence... …”

"But that time, due to various reasons, it felt unwell, and the body it found was only at the early stage of the third level."

"This is equivalent to forcing a piece of seawater into a small river, which directly leads to the failure of the transfer operation, and then triggers a large-scale leakage of artistic conception, with a radiation range that covers a radius of more than 100 kilometers."

"However, after we cleared away the radiation energy, we unexpectedly discovered that the body it took away was still biologically active, and there was still some consciousness left."

"Researchers who conduct experiments on the body can always hear hoarse howls of pain in their minds. Evolvers who were originally affected by the spread of radiation also hallucinate echoes of painful screams from time to time in their chaotic mental state."

"It's somewhat similar to Shen Jie's experience..."

After listening to Zhiyi's case introduction, Lin Feng quickly realized what the other party meant:

"You mean that my mother, He Yiwen, left something similar to the artistic conception energy in the spiritual mark on me after she became a pseudo-fourth-level life form, so when Shen Jie was in trouble just now, this mark was accidentally triggered? "

The cockroach nodded and added:

"To be more precise, it should be that your artistic conception ability is highly related to the bloodline left by your mother. Being close to the humans around you is very likely to activate the bloodline inheritance. Although you cannot truly inherit the power of artistic conception, you can vaguely Feel the spiritual energy of the former pseudo-fourth-level life form.”

"It is the other half of Shen Jie's human blood, and he happens to be by your side. With all the conditions together, you are extremely lucky to give him a hand."

"Otherwise, we have to deal with the hot potato of Shen Jie before starting the collective artistic conception trial."

After hearing Zhi Yi's speculation, Lin Feng let out a long sigh of relief and slowly opened his clenched fists behind his back.

At this moment, the sweat on the palms has seeped into the deep marks left by the fingertips.

He knows better than anyone else that the biggest secret hidden in himself is the existence of the upgrade system. Now it seems that this is the gift left by He Yiwen.

Lin Feng has been saved from fire and water many times.

After discussing Shen Jie's matter, the time came to around five o'clock in the afternoon.

It's five o'clock in the middle of summer, and it's still daytime outside. The scorching sun is setting in the distance and doesn't want to leave.

On the horizon of the winding mountain road, a number of armored personnel carriers drove up. The leader Qin Hu sat on a heavy jeep and followed the black-armored chariot leading the way to the main nest location in the northwest of Yunxia Ridge.

Along the way, Qin Hu saw many traces of insect activities nearby, and even a few tiger spine insects, lying blatantly on the hillside, watching everyone arrive.

If he had not come to the appointment this time and brought no weapons, Qin Hu and his late second-level consummation genetic warriors would have wanted to go forward with bare hands to deal with these audacious insect swarms.

Fortunately, Liu Yi and others who came to meet him hurriedly explained to him. Qin Hu suddenly understood and ordered everyone to calm down and not be impulsive.

When the convoy arrived at the entrance of the main incubation nest, after seeing Lin Feng and others, Qin Hu realized that with these killing gods of the insect race here, how could the tiger spine insects survive if they had not surrendered? to date.

Lin Feng, who was going out to graduate, was also a little surprised when he saw the team members brought by Qin Hu.

Qin Hu brought a total of thirty-six testers, including himself, while Lin Feng had thirty-four, for a total of seventy on both sides.

In fact, after the battle at the Yong'an River early in the morning, Qin Hu's final harvest was far more than that. Although the Queen Mother entrenched in the Yong'an River had average strength of the Zerg under her command, there were no less than 600 second-order tiger spine worms.

It’s just that the second-order insect eggs on hand are all used for upgrading.

And more than 600 second-order tiger spine worms, plus a hundred second-order insect eggs, are enough for the forty or so second-order mid-to-late gene warriors in his hands to reach the late second-order stage.

Coupled with the original dozen or so Perfect Powers, the Southern Corps currently in his hands is even more powerful than the Salvation Army.

It's just that the fully armed second-level battle group of the Salvation Army can easily defeat beings of the same level that are several times their own size. Not to mention one against ten, one against three is still easy to do.

In addition to the insufficient number of people, there are also many new faces among the people brought to participate in the artistic conception trial this time.

It is probably to ensure the safety of the Beihe Town camp and to avoid the risks caused by the sudden drop in top-level experts. People such as Chen Shu and others who are familiar to Lin Feng are not on the list of trialists this time.

Apparently Qin Hu made corresponding arrangements after understanding the risks of participating in the trial.

Leave several of his trusted successors in the camp to maintain order, so that if something unexpected happens during this trial, the entire corps will not fall into chaos.

After a round of handshakes and greetings, Qin Hu and his 36 gene warriors, led by Lin Feng and others, entered the hatching nest more than 200 meters deep underground.

All the members of Lin Feng's gene regiment, a total of 34, had already assembled behind Shen Jie.

At this moment, Qin Hu and others exclaimed twice after seeing this giant hatching meat tower 50 meters wide.

But the hatching pyramid of the third-stage mid-stage mother queen is even more exaggerated. This one is only of medium size in their eyes. The hatching pyramid built by the Haicheng mother queen that Lin Feng and others saw in the underground of Jiangbei was really exaggerated.

The pyramid in front of everyone is already densely inlaid with more than 200 fresh second-stage insect eggs.

They will also become participants and start the biological hatching hibernation chamber of the artistic conception trial.

However, when Qin Hu saw Ling Yi, who was controlling all this, and Jiang Yuner, who was wearing a black cloak beside her, he frowned slightly.

With his extremely high degree of genetic fusion, it is not difficult to see that the two women in front of him exude a very strong Zerg aura.

The latter is fine. When Lin Feng returned from the capital city, he brought her to the military camp, proving that the former big star Jiang Yuner has now become a spy planted among humans by the Zerg Queen.

As for the former...

Qin Hu knew that she was Director Ling Shuyan, the researcher mentioned in the letter in the past, and also the awakener with the highest IQ under Lin Feng.

But Ling Shuyan didn't say that the other party would have such a strong Zerg aura.

If it weren't for her beautiful appearance, which was no different from humans, Qin Hu almost had the illusion that a high-level Zerg Queen stood in front of him.

But there were also Lin Feng and Shen Jie present. Their third-level strength was actually evolved by killing the Zerg Queen.

There is no possibility of being controlled by the Zerg Queen.

Sensing the astonishment and suspicion on the faces of Qin Hu and others, Lin Feng explained:

"Miss Lin is a survivor I rescued from Jiacheng, which was besieged by the Zerg. The Queen there is quite knowledgeable about humans and has tried to transform many human-Zerg hybrids. Miss Lin has implanted the Queen's cells and later awakened the same mental control ability as the Queen."

"Because her whole family died at the hands of the Zerg, her hatred for the Zerg is also an irreconcilable hatred."

"And this time, she and I will also participate in the artistic conception trial, to help everyone solve problems and escort them."

When the nearby trial participants learned that the leader Lin Feng and the two people, Long Yi, would also participate in the artistic conception trial, they applauded enthusiastically.

The tension in my heart was slightly relieved.

After listening to Lin Feng's introduction, Qin Hu nodded and stopped worrying about it.

For him, as long as he can repel the Zerg invasion, even if he uses the Zerg's biological flesh and blood technology, it will not be a problem.

Moreover, among the present, including himself, all the gene warriors, strictly speaking, are hybrid derivatives that absorb Zerg genes.

Turning his eyes away from Long Yi, Qin Hu looked at Shen Jie who was stunned.

After the Queen Mother's beheading operation in the early morning, he has successfully advanced to the third stage and became the third third-level awakener besides Lin Feng and Long Yi.

In the eyes of the gene warriors, Shen Jie is the first third-level awakener of his kind, and also his role model.

At this moment, all the gene warriors' gazes are full of deep admiration and envy.

Shen Jie noticed these hot eyes, turned around and scanned everyone, and nodded slightly.

Lin Feng looked at the time and it was already half past five, so he gave an order:

"It's getting late, don't delay, let's start!"

Long nodded:

"Please come forward in an orderly manner! Start the artistic conception trial!"
