This Game Is Too Realistic Chapter 631: Assimilation fighters?

www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of this game is too real!

A dark underground tunnel.

After being knocked unconscious, the three newbies were dragged here by a group of slime mold fruiting bodies, and then moved to a claustrophobic room.

This seems to be somewhere in the underground transportation network of Qingquan City, but it has been transformed beyond recognition by plaque, and it is impossible to tell where it is.

The player who woke up first shook his head and put his hands on the ground. He felt something sticky on his hands and was startled when he opened his eyes.

I saw a scarlet color all around, and the stirring carpet was like fresh meat, exuding an unsettling stench.

The big pig's trotters looked around blankly, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence.

"What the hell? What the **** is this place?"

Why was it that after being offline for a while, I even moved my position when I came back online?

At this time, the other man and woman who had been kidnapped also woke up and were trembling with fear when they saw the situation around them.

Hungry force: "I giao... won't we be swallowed by slime mold?"

Bow down to the hungry forces: "Wake up, you are such a big lump, how can you swallow it if you don't chew it till it's chewed up.

Hungry force: "...?"

Bow down to the hungry forces: "I was wrong."

At this moment, a strange figure appeared in the dark entrance ahead.

It is two people tall, with a burly body that almost fills the entire passage. There are only abstract facial features on the face. The upper body is burly and strong, and the lower body is a stretched skirt, with cilia like octopus tentacles rolling around the edges.

It is somewhat similar to Xiaoyu when she was still a mother, but it is obviously larger and has fewer human elements.

The three of them were startled by the abstract appearance of this guy, and backed away with expressions on their faces that they had seen a ghost.

Unfortunately, this is a dead end. There is a wall behind them and there is no room to move.

Seeing the guy slowly moving his tentacles in front of him, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, he swallowed, raised his neck and breathed hard.

"Gu...kill me, I won't say anything!"

By the way, she has wanted to try this line for a long time, and the key is that they, the newbies, don’t know anything about it.

I don’t know if he understood her words or just heard her voice. The alien turned its abstract facial features towards her, and the hem of the skirt that was sticking to the ground suddenly opened a crack.

Just when everyone was wondering what it was going to do, countless tentacles rushed out from the gap and instantly pulled her into the open **** mouth.

Before he even had time to scream "Wuka", the hungry force that was still talking hard a second ago disappeared in the closed "mouth".

The stretched skirt moved up and down, as if chewing carefully.

Seeing his partner being eaten by a monster in front of him, Xiang Xian bowed his head to the hungry forces and after a brief daze, let out a hoarse scream.

"Wife!! I will fight with you!"

After saying that, he struggled to stand up and rushed towards the monster that was two people tall with his fists raised.

However, his fate was no different from the previous players.

Before he took two steps, he was tripped by a tentacle that protruded from the hem of his skirt. Like a mosquito falling in front of a frog, he was licked into the open slit without any suspense. Bloody mouth.

A pair of dogs and a man died.

Sia, who had had a full meal, swayed the tentacles under her body and slapped the ground happily, as if chewing the steak she had swallowed in her mouth.

It's just that the abstract facial features still have a trace of confusion, as if they are wondering about something.

Looking at the scarlet skirt that was constantly beating, Big Pig Trotter's nervous face turned pale, and he rolled his eyes in desperation.

"Brother! Don't eat me, I'm not good at eating...I, I, I surrender! Do you need a translator? I'll be your bastard!

I heard that this game has a high degree of freedom.

What if it happens?

Sia turned her abstract facial features towards him, one

After thinking for a while, he suddenly opened the skirt that was close to the ground again without any warning.

Looking at the clothes falling out of it and the tentacles rolling like a meat grinder, Big Pig Trotters had a premonition of his own end, and his expression suddenly changed.

This is damning anyway! "I-"

Before he could even curse the dog mastermind, the open mouth swallowed him up. Without even a chance to resist, his remaining consciousness merged into the sea of ​​scarlet blood.

Feeling the breath of life melting into her body, Xia chewed quietly for a while, and the confusion on her face gradually turned into incomprehensible anguish.

"Strange.

As if aware of the child's confusion, the mother's voice appeared quietly in its hazy sea of ​​consciousness.

"What's wrong? My child."

Facing the empty scarlet wall and the indigestible impurities left at her feet, West Asia murmured silently.

"They are empty.

Those guys are empty shells.

And more so than simple organisms such as cockroaches and mice

Purely empty shell, like a blank piece of paper without any information.

This is the first time since its birth that it has seen such a strange creature.

This kind of thing cannot be assimilated, or even if it is assimilated, it has no meaning. They are just a walking zombie.

It cannot understand what kind of existence they are.

Are they, like their mother's "fruiting bodies", puppets controlled by a consciousness outside the body?

But they have shown strong autonomy. Confusion appeared on Sia's face.

Could it be

These humans also have nests?

"They are assimilated alien species."

Vault 404, B4 Floor Browsing Room.

Sitting on the sofa, Heya briefly explained to Chu Guang and Yin Fang the preliminary test results of the two fruiting body samples from the Alliance Biological Research Institute.

【Recommended, the Changyuan app for chasing books is really useful. Download it here and you can try it out. 】

Hearing the unexpected and interesting statement, Yin Fang put down the coffee cup in his hand and raised his eyebrows with interest.

"Assimilation?"

Hea nodded seriously and continued. "That's right... slime molds collected their DNA data, and while absorbing their organic matter, retained part of it

Nervous tissue originally belonging to those organisms themselves. ”

After a pause, she continued.

"You remember Butch, right? He's the guy who was parasitized by slime mold. His situation is similar to those of those special fruiting bodies, except that the slime mold in Qingquan City is obviously more aggressive than that in Yongdong City. , the slime mold here has assimilated more thoroughly, turning most of the captured organisms into parts of its own body, retaining only a small part of the host's brain tissue.

In a sense, this is actually an improvement for the mutant slime mold in Qingquan City.

It's like going from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age.

In addition to making weapons from the bones of their prey, they also learned to domesticate them—that is, to train their prey into "combat-type servitors" that are obedient to them.

Yin Fang pinched his chin and fell into deep thought.

Chu Guang, who had been silent all this time, coughed lightly.

"Can you put it in another way that I can understand?"

Hea explained patiently.

"To put it simply, they have made improvements based on unified consciousness. In the past, both gnawers and crawlers hunted under the guidance of the mother nest, but now some special fruiting bodies have been retained. With their combat experience before being assimilated, they can use the more powerful bodies given to them by the slime mold to hunt in the original way."

Yin Fang interrupted and said.

"It is equivalent to a combat robot with intelligent plug-ins installed and not controlled by the cloud server.

Hea snapped her fingers.

"Yes!

Chu Guang touched his chin and thought.

"

Does this make any sense? ”

Yin Fang analyzed it according to his own understanding.

"The meaning is that the mother nest can allocate more of the hive's "computing resources" to strategic-level command, while some higher-level sub-entities and evolved entities can make tactical-level decisions on their own based on experience. Even though their tactics may not necessarily be brilliant, they will be more flexible and changeable than before... Am I right to understand this? ”

Hea smiled and nodded.

"Yes, that's it!"

Taking a sip from the coffee cup, Yin Fang sighed and said.

"It has evolved to this level in just one year...The speed of evolution of this thing is too exaggerated."

Hya shook her head.

"It's not just a year, evolution is a long-term process. They have been learning from us, whether it is our tools or our society... I am more inclined to think that the emergence of alliances This accelerates their evolution to a certain extent, but what really drives their transformation from quantitative to qualitative change is their long-term observation of us.

The spore clouds are spread all over Qingquan City. In theory, the mother body in the city center can indeed see them.

Just like the Alliance's Biological Research Institute has been looking for a solution to the Brood, that guy must also be tirelessly looking for a solution to the disintegration of human society.

Perhaps it would be better to eradicate them in the early days of the Wasteland Era. The slime molds at that time would not be as difficult to deal with as they are now.

But these are all things for later.

People at that time also had troubles at that time. It was not easy to survive in the severe cold of dozens of degrees below zero, let alone fighting an unprepared battle against an unknown enemy.

"Actually...compared to what you said, I'm more worried about another thing."

Seeing the two people looking at him, Chu Guang paused, then slowly continued.

"They have gradually learned to hide themselves during evolution, testing us while consciously preventing us from obtaining their remains."

"They seem to know us better and better.

"......"

Official website of "Wasteland OL".

Different from the solemn atmosphere in the browsing room, the forum is bustling with excitement at the moment.

Since the release of the new expansion pack, players have been looking forward to some new work planned by Dog, and it turned out to be true this time

Didn't disappoint.

The original wave was a group of fruiting bodies swarming up to A. Now this group of fruiting bodies can not only move, but also perform a jaw-dropping coordination, and even kidnapped them under the nose of Brother Quanshui. Three little newbies.

This is something no one expected.

Quiting smoking: "Awesome!"

Battlefield Atmosphere Group: "Even the water from the dog spring is deflated, it’s unscientific! (Funny)

Commander Quanshui: "Get out of here, I'm so embarrassed. Picking up a body is already a great achievement, okay!

Yin Leina: "Speaking of which corpses are left? Isn't there a monster? (Curious)"

Commander Fountain: "When the fog cleared, it was gone. It was probably towed away and recovered, or eaten on the spot."

Fang Chang: "It’s okay if you eat it..."

Ye Shi: "Hiss...this new mother's body feels like there is something."

Makabazi: "Speaking of the brothers who were kidnapped by those fruiting bodies? Haven't they come down yet?"

Big Pig Trotter: "That's me... I might have seen the mother's body!"

As soon as they heard this sentence, the players squatting in the post instantly became excited.

Quiting smoking: "Holy shit! Is this real or fake?"

Elf King Fugui: "Tell me what that thing looks like, brother. (Funny)"

Big Pig Hoof: "I don't know how to describe it, it's a bit like Xiao Yu's appearance before...a little bigger than it, and then uglier.

Although he has not seen Xiaoyu in the game, he still thinks

There are always photos of Xiaoyu posted by other players on the forum.

Comparing those photos, Xiaoyu is still similar to it, except that the outline of the facial features and body are smoother, and the color is more pink.

An inappropriate but vivid metaphor is that the mother body called West Asia is more like a shark with its mouth wide open, the kind that can scare children into tears. Xiaoyu is more like a dolphin. Although it has a ferocious side, it is closer to human aesthetics.

Commander Quanshui: "Do you remember where you saw that guy?"

Big Pig Trotters: "I don't know about this...but I feel like it should be somewhere underground, which is very similar to a subway station.

Edge: "Subway station... this target is too broad."

Commander Quanshui: "But no matter what, I can confirm that this time the mother's nest and the incubation room are hidden underground... Damn it, no wonder it's something we haven't seen before."

Fang Chang: "@Big pig's trotters, that mother finally ate you all?"

Bow down to the hungry forces: "Yes, it killed my wife in one bite

You swallowed it... in front of me, oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

Hungry force: "Tsk, you guy, don't speak so strangely, okay! (angry)

Like hungry forces bowing their heads: "I was wrong." Big pig's trotters: "..."

Commander Quanshui: "Then what? Don't you find anything else? Anything is fine."

Hungry force: "Well, I feel...it seems to be responding to our voices.

Commander Fountain: "Voice?"

Hungry power: "At first it seemed to be planning to eat my partner first, but as soon as I opened my mouth to speak, it swallowed me first... I always felt that it didn't understand at all. What am I talking about? After all, I don’t know Renlian.”

Like a hungry force, he lowered his head and said: "Hey... I also remembered when you said that. I was the second one to say anything, and then I was eaten right after you."

Hungry force: "So this alien species hunts by sound?"

Commander Quanshui: "No, I think there is another possibility. It mistook you for a human giving orders...like the alpha wolf among the wolves."

Hungry force: "Huh? Do I still have this ability?"

He bowed his head like a hungry force: "What the hell? Is my partner capable of this?"

Commander Fountain: "I don't know about that, but maybe that's how it looks from its perspective. After all, most mammals

They all rely on vocal cords to transmit information. Maybe the mother's nest understands sound as a kind of biological pheromone.

Big Pig Trotter: "Speaking of which, I also discovered an unusual place. I don't know if it's a clue... The guy who seemed to be the mother's body seemed to be very surprised after taking those two bites.

Commander Quan Shui: "Surprised?"

Big Pig Trotter: "Yes, it feels like eating the wrong thing... I looked at it and savored it for a long time before spitting out the clothes and shoes."

Fang Chang: "It's a bit interesting."

Quit smoking: "Uh, what do you mean?"

Fang Chang: "...Do you think there is a possibility that in the cognition of slime mold, other organisms are "mushrooms" with autonomous consciousness, and the clones we use just happen to be It does not have autonomous consciousness, so it is confusing where our autonomous consciousness comes from.

Commander Quanshui: "It seems we have thought of something together." Fang Chang: "However, if my inference is correct, this mother body is probably different from all the mother bodies we have encountered before. Not simply eating them, but picking some of them and assimilating them into 'one of our own'."

While everyone was discussing, an announcement suddenly popped up from the official website.

["The Wave Returns" expansion pack update: Added the concept of "assimilated body"]

[According to the findings of the Alliance Research Institute, "West Asia" will consciously capture organisms that invade the territory and assimilate them into ethnic groups

, retaining its aggressiveness and part of its self-awareness, while forcibly implanting biological prosthetics to transform it. 】

【Currently known "assimilations":

1. The bacteriophage monster: It has similar power to the monster. Its recovery and defense are enhanced by the biological prosthetic body constructed by slime mold. Its individual combat effectiveness will be more powerful than that of the monster.

2. Bacteriophageous Death Claw: It possesses the speed and agility of Death Claw, and on this basis has enhanced resilience and damage resistance. No samples have been collected yet, and qualitative biological analysis cannot be done. It can only be based on Combat images speculate that it has combat power comparable to that of an evolved form.

3. Bacteriophage Explosives: A slime mold fruiting body that is suspected of being secondary assimilated. No biological prototype has been found in the ecological environment around Qingquan City. Its ability is presumed to be to actively detonate itself and release corrosive poisonous mist. Other subtypes The entity will throw it as a projectile.

] Quit smoking: “Holy shit!”

Big Eyes of Debt: "6666! We just updated the settings of the assimilated body as soon as we talked about assimilation!"

Ye Shi: "Brother Guang has plagiarized the forum! (Funny)" Fang Chang: "But this server announcement proves that our idea is correct. There are two pieces of information that can be extracted. One, West Asia It has the characteristics of 'assimilation fighter' and will partially transform

Prey use their combat experience to become better micromanipulators than the parent in previous waves. Secondly, it has focused on what makes us unique, and is consciously studying us and learning from us...but due to limited knowledge, its understanding of us may have some deviations.

Commander Quanshui: "These two clues are crucial! Since our opponents are no longer the group of fools in the last wave, the form of the wave has probably changed fundamentally. Use the original ideas to formulate tactics. It’s very dangerous.”

Edge: "You mean, they might not play according to the routine? Bypassing our defense line in the northern suburbs?"

Commander Fountain: "This is very likely. The experience of measuring the attack direction of slime mold through the concentration of spore clouds is very likely to be invalid in this battle!"

Commander Quanshui: "I even think that the wave has already started, but they are taking advantage of the inertia of our understanding of them to stay put and deliberately follow the timetable we expected. After two weeks, they only need to send out A large amount of cannon fodder rushes towards our position just like the last wave, and then sends a small group of elite troops around to the flank where our defense strength is the most empty, and can eat up our entire defense line in one go!"

Luo Yu: "Should I blanch it?! Do slime molds still have such evil intentions?"

The construction site boy and Brick: "Well, you don't think too much.

Fountain Commander: "I heard that slime mold can plan the shortest path to food based on its location. The mutant slime mold we are facing is obviously smarter than the real slime mold

Many, I have reason to believe that these guys will do this kind of thing.

Fang Chang: "I agree, anything can happen on the battlefield. My opinion is the same as yours. If you underestimate the enemy, you will suffer a big loss.

Midnight Killing Chicken: "It's too troublesome. Do you two have any plans?"

Fang Chang: "After hearing what happened to the two cute newcomers, I have an idea.

Edge paddling: "What do you think?"

Fang Chang: "As we all know, a guy who is a little smart but not smart enough is easier to deceive than a fool who doesn't understand anything. This time the matrix is ​​smarter and more difficult to deal with than before, but we can also use it in reverse This."

Edge stroke: "How to use this?"

Fang Chang: "It's very simple. The idea is the same as the intelligence war during World War II. Since they understand us as a group of organisms that rely on sound waves as pheromones to transmit information, then we only need to forge a mother nest that gives orders. , just show it our "flaws"! ”
