Chapter 39 Thinking
After the scout took action, Xia Jieren asked, "By the way, Kerrigan, can you communicate with it?"
Kerrigan: "Yes, the Zerg can communicate with all intelligent creatures through telepathy."
Xia Jieren: "Then I'll leave it to you."
"If possible, get a newspaper back."
After receiving the order, Kerrigan personally commanded the scouts to stop the news bird.
When the news bird saw the scout blocking its way, it immediately looked over with caution.
"Is this eagle trying to kill the bird and steal the treasure?"
At this moment, a voice sounded in the news bird's mind, and it immediately opened its beak in surprise.
The news bird is indeed a very intelligent creature. It was only slightly surprised and quickly regained its composure.
"Brother Bird, I've traveled a lot and have seen all kinds of scenes."
Then, it communicated with Kerrigan very skillfully.
Xia Jieren didn't know the specific content of the conversation.
The News Bird's expression changed back and forth, sometimes hesitant, sometimes angry, and sometimes helpless.
A minute later, they finished their conversation and the newsbird flapped its wings and flew away.
"Kerrigan, how is it going? Anything you learned?"
Xia Jieren asked quickly:
Kerrigan said helplessly: "Master, this bird is too stubborn. I want to kill the bird and take the treasure."
"It won't give me a newspaper for anything."
"As for the situation in the outside world, it doesn't know much. After all, no matter how smart it is, it's just a bird."
"It is usually only responsible for delivering newspapers or passing on messages. It doesn't care about the affairs of the human world."
Xia Jieren: "Oh, what a pity. The channel for obtaining information from the outside world is gone."
"If I had known this, I should have just killed the bird and taken the treasure."
Kerrigan chuckled and said, "Master, don't worry, there is some mixed news."
"That means this news bird might pass by here again in a few days."
"This is the result of coercion and inducement."
Xia Jieren was very happy to hear the news.
At this time, Kerrigan poured cold water on the situation again: "It's just that the Newsbird said it only accepts Baileys and doesn't accept barter."
Sure enough, after hearing the news, Xia Jieren cursed: "Grass (a kind of plant), why is this bird so stubborn."
Xia Jieren vented his anger for a while, then ordered, "Send more scouts to patrol this area in the near future."
"Where can we find Bailey in this damn place now? I think we should just kill the bird and get the treasure."
Xia Jieren thought:
The news bird, which was flying, suddenly shuddered violently, and its feathers stood up, and a sense of panic arose in its heart for no reason.
Then, it turned its head and looked around, thinking, "Who is this villain who wants to murder me?"
Lying on the bed, Xia Jieren began to ponder how to break the impasse.
At first, Xia Jieren planned to produce some reconnaissance spores to parasitize the body of the news bird to obtain information from the outside world.
However, there are major flaws in doing so.
First of all, only when the News Bird is within 1k kilometers of the Jinghu Base can the information near the News Bird be obtained.
Beyond this distance, no real-time information can be obtained.
Second, the scout spores do not have the ability to store large amounts of information.
Obviously this plan is not feasible. It may be useful in the future, but now the heart network covers an area of 1k kilometers centered on Xia Jieren.
After giving up this plan, Xia Jieren continued to think about other more feasible options.
It has now been made clear that it is not possible to obtain information about the vicinity of the Newsbird through scouting spores.
Then we need to rely on NewsBird to obtain information from the outside world.
However, there is a problem with this. The news bird may expose the location of Jinghu Base, which is unacceptable to Xia Jieren who is determined to survive to the end.
Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.
If the news bird says a few more words and lets the old bird Morgans know the location of the base, it will cause huge trouble.
You can't rely on luck in anything, no one can guarantee that the base location information will not be leaked.
Moreover, we cannot eliminate the problem by killing the news bird now, as this may only lead to greater trouble.
People in the pirate world will not attack the Newsbird easily. Firstly, they are afraid of Morgans' revenge, and secondly, they also need to obtain timely information.
If the news bird is killed directly, not only will it be temporarily impossible to obtain information from the outside world, but it will also attract Morgans' investigation.
Xia Jieren needs to come up with a solution that has the best of both worlds. While using the News Bird as a window to understand information from the outside world, he also needs to ensure that it does not leak information about the Jinghu Base.
He casually opened the data panel.
[Master: Xia Jieren]
【Energy: 3.9w ()】
[Army template: Infected (800), Dragon (1.2k), Brainworm (1k), ...]
[Units: Flying Dragon x1k, Brainworm x2, Hydralisk x1k, ...]
[Building template: Fungal blanket (100), evolution chamber (100), nutrient embryo (100), ...]
[Buildings: Fungal blanket, nutrient embryo x1, evolution chamber x1,...]
When his eyes swept over the infected person, Xia Jieren suddenly remembered that he was a little disappointed yesterday that the infected person had no neural parasitism and neural control ability.
He suddenly had an idea: "It would be great if there was a type of soldier that could perform neural parasitism."
The more Xia Jieren thought about it, the more he felt that his idea was feasible.
So he told Kerrigan his idea and asked her to try to deduce the parasite army.
Kerrigan: "Master Overlord's idea is very feasible. It only takes one day to deduce the parasite."
Xia Jieren plans to use the parasite and reconnaissance spores in combination, and first let the parasite and reconnaissance spores enter the body of the news bird.
This way the scout spores can monitor the newsbird's behavior in real time.
Even if the Newsbird intends to reveal the location of the Mirror Lake Base, the parasite can control it in the first place.
The more Xia Jieren thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was very feasible. "I am so smart!"
Unless someone with great power examines the News Bird's body, it would be impossible to detect the parasite inside the News Bird.
Parasites will not cause any harm to the host without orders. They will coexist with the host and plunder its excess energy to develop themselves.
After solving a problem, Xia Jieren planned to go for a walk outside to relax his mind.
Xia Jieren walked aimlessly, thinking in his mind: "How can I get the newspaper?"
"Using force, this method can only be used as a last resort."
"It would be bad if it attracted the attention of 'big news' Morgans."
"And what exactly is recorded in the news in One Piece? I'm really curious."
"Before, when I watched anime, I only had a glimpse of it, and there was no detailed description."
"I wonder if there are any novels to read. I'm really looking forward to it."
