Walk through the structure of the Ark and wander on the continent of Terra

"These things, the Iberians of the time would call them scars, are part of the marine ecology. The marine cells will form a structure similar to a creeping fungus blanket, which plays a very complex role, decomposing rocks and Metals swallow up the organic matter that can be swallowed in the seabed and land sand, and transport the absorbed nutrients to higher-level individuals of sea descendants passing by. When resources are scarce, these velvet-like cells can also retain water. , and serve as food to provide nutrition for higher-level individuals." Kelsey rubbed her brows. This time she did not intend to let her apprentice Yaye avoid these conversations. Since this kind of thing appears, regardless of its origin, Terra People on the mainland should know.

"This thing..." Alpha certainly knew what she was talking about. "Is the ghost shark herself okay?"

"The physiological structure carefully designed by the Agor people in her body is still functioning normally, and that sophisticated system can effectively restrain the heir cells, but I don't know how long this stability can last.

"I have never seen this happen, but based on my experience, the reactivation of these cells should be related to her series of experiences from the shore to us. The deep-sea cultists who committed atrocities on her tried to awaken her Their experiments with the Hai Hei bloodline in her body were unsuccessful, but those liquid Origin Stones were constantly pressing her body to repair itself. This process may have reawakened part of the functions of the Hai Hei cells. Origin Stone, Argo Er's modified body and modified heir cells formed a dangerous 'balance' in her body."

"Has our treatment plan destroyed this balance?" Alpha frowned. Was there any major flaw in her original predictions and calculations? She still lacked understanding of Haiji's existence. Was the decision she made at that time too hasty?

"It can't be said that the balance has been destroyed," Kelsey shook her head. "Those liquid source stones will be gradually excreted from the body even if we don't intervene. And the activity of the heir cells has been aroused before we took over. , as long as Agor’s system collapses, she will become a new heir, and even a high-level node.”

"Is there a similar situation with Skadi?" Alpha glanced at the petri dish in the experimental cabinet again, "In my memory, on a timeline when the heirs engulfed the earth, the swarms called her 'Isa' Mara'."

When Kelsey heard this, there was no surprise in her eyes. She just nodded silently, "After obtaining consent, I also took samples. Compared with the samples from the ghost shark, the samples collected from Skati Heirloom cells..." He led Alpha to another experimental cabinet. On the petri dish sealed in the experimental cabinet, a ball of blue flesh and blood was trembling weakly.

Now the fun was getting bigger. Such a big lump of blue meat obviously couldn't have been cut from Skadi's body. Alpha gave a bitter smile.Now I am very busy. The troubles on Casimir's side have not been resolved yet. The problems of the two deep-sea hunters may be piled up with the problems of the old Rutland woman.

Alpha knocked a few cases on the experimental cabinet, and the device began to completely inactivate the scar samples. In Iberia's old experience, scars are not afraid of fire, but in fact, this is just because they are loose. Their structures and characteristics of storing a large amount of water allow them to suffer less damage than their own self-repair and spread when faced with the low-temperature flames of conventional fuels.

But they are still carbon-based organisms after all, and the upper limit of the bond energy of the hydrocarbon molecular chain means that they cannot resist the continuous ablation of high-temperature plasma.The last trace of water loss was quickly dealt with.

Finally, everyone stood in front of the mass of flesh and blood. Alpha thought for a moment, stretched out her hand, and her hand in the form of a high-dimensional force field passed through the ordinary isolation glass after the shielding field was closed in the experimental cabinet. She picked up the mass of flesh and blood. Analysis started.

78. Chess move part.1

Kelsey and Yaye watched the blue flesh squirm in Alpha's hands, then age and decay at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into a shriveled brown residue.Even Kelsey was a little curious as to what that ball of flesh and blood had experienced in just a few dozen seconds.

Alpha placed the inactivated flesh and blood on her force-field-enhanced palm, and colorless flames began to burn on the remains, completely erasing it from the world without leaving any residue.Then she withdrew her hand from the experimental cabinet, and her force-fielded arm returned to its original form. She started the decontamination process of the two experimental cabinets, letting the equipment handle the remaining possible contaminants on its own.

"How's it going? What's the conclusion?" Looking at her dull expression, Kelsey thought for a while and finally asked the question she was looking forward to.

"It's neither good nor bad. Let me draw a conclusion first. These samples helped me solidify the conclusion that creatures like Haiji are man-made. I traced back their genetic structure, this special system and function. The expression is almost completely different from the biological samples on land and in the water of Siesta. It is certain that they are artificially designed creatures." Alpha sighed, "They were created by the ancestors for certain purposes. of an artificial biota.”

Looking at Alpha's determined eyes, Kelsey nodded.

"Then there is a very troublesome point, Kelsey. My strange memory of another world has come true again."

"It's definitely not a good thing if you can make you swear."

"Kelsey, I don't know if you've noticed that the heir cells in Skadi and Ghost Shark are not exactly the same. It doesn't mean that they have different shapes on the culture dish, but that the cells inside their cells are different. Differences in the functional structure expressed and the integrity of the cell's genetic material."

As he spoke, Alpha patted the two fully enclosed isolation experimental cabinets provided by himself, "That mass of flesh and blood, until it withers, has been trying to release information to the outside world, through information molecules, sound waves and electromagnetic waves. I After fully understanding the underlying logic of editing and modulation of the information, it can be determined that the information is placed in Haiji's cluster and has very high authority and priority. Unfortunately, the information is blocked by the cabinet, and its large group Nothing is received.”

On the visualization terminal next to him, Alpha called up several different images, "The heirloom cells from Skadi's body have at least two sources, so that those cells can show this advanced form. One of them This species is similar to the samples in the ghost sharks. It is the modified version that the Agor people originally implanted for them. However, there is at least one different kind of heirloom cell, which is the high-level authority brought by that kind of cell and the kind of cell induction. The entire sample has differentiated into flesh and blood that is close to an individual, rather than a carpet of scars."

Kelsey looked at the genetically encoded data that was constantly beating on the terminal, "You mean, Skadi's body contains biological contamination that comes directly from a certain high-level sea heir individual?"

"Maybe it's the mother body of a large sea heir colony, or a certain Poseidon."

"Tsk..." It looked like Kelsey wanted to rub her brow, but the huge mask of the thick pressurized protective suit prevented her from doing so, "She might become a terrifying mobile biological pollution source... …And we can only pray that the Agor people’s technology is reliable enough and won’t suddenly fail?”

Alpha nodded, "If we don't take measures."

"If the doctor didn't have amnesia, he knew what to do, but now he can't remember anything." At the same time, the doctor who was playing fish and rabbit in the office suddenly felt an itch in his nose and sneezed suddenly.

If you want to ask Alpha if there is a way, of course there is a lot of ways. Transforming them into structures and abandoning the dangerous organic bodies is one way, and physically deleting and rearranging those heir cells is another way. Method.There is also a very rogue method, which is to use her own high-dimensional biological power to release the completely controllable Pamish virus to infect those heir cells, just like she did with the country released by the inner guards.

Haiji itself is an "intelligent creation" and can almost be said to be the favorite culture base of the Pamish virus. As long as it is done simply like this, these two deep-sea hunters are no longer blood relatives of the large group, but are her Alpha's. Upgraded...

Ahem, why does it sound weird?

"Let's trust Agor's technology for the time being..." Alpha threw those inappropriate ideas to the back of her mind, and then she conjured up a few things, "Here are two implantable ecological monitoring chips, and There are active inhibitors that I just configured. At least for now, we only need to be responsible for life on land."

"Only you can do this." Kelsey smiled, "You still plan to wait until you meet the technical consul before making any plans, right?"

"Yes, save her face, and we haven't gone to the beach now. To be honest, it's not good to hide in Casimir and interfere in Agor's internal affairs."

"It's best if you have this self-awareness, but I'm afraid you don't."

"Ha ha ha ha."

……

"Willow, what are you looking at?"

"Ah, Captain, I'm looking at Casimir's business stocks."

During the lunch break, two operators from the field medical team were chatting.

"You kid is still trading stocks? Aren't you afraid of losing money?"

"Every time I go to a place, I will take a look at the local stocks. If there is a good expectation, I will invest a small amount of money..."

"So did you lose or make a profit?"

"I earned two months' salary at Longmen, but I invested all of it in Xista. There is no news yet."

"You kid, why don't you treat guests after making extra money?"

"I already said I've invested in it, where's the money to treat me?"

"Okay, okay, how about you teach me and I'll make a fortune too."

"For companies like Casimir, stocks with stable market values ​​are extremely expensive, and those cheap listed companies are not good. If I have to recommend..." Willow thought for a while, "Recently, the equity restructuring of Huihuangdun Industrial, stock splits, prices It has declined, but the future expectations seem to be pretty good. Judging from the communiqué, there is a shareholder who brought funds and new technologies to invest in the shares. It seems that he got a large share. The civilian vehicle department of Huihuangdun Industrial was almost lost to the newcomer. It’s settled.”

"How do I buy it?"

"Well, first you have to open an account and register, and then wait for your number to be called. The shares of Huihuangdun are in short supply right now."

"Damn, it's really troublesome, let's not do it anymore."

"Captain, how can you make money without trouble?"

"Forget it, just do it yourself. When you make money, remember to treat everyone to a drink."

"Hey...let's do it."

79. Chess move part.2

"Has Alpha returned to the city?" On the way to the Rhode Island tarmac, the doctor asked Kelsey who was walking beside him.

Kelsey nodded, answering his question. She knew very well that the disappointed expression on this guy's face was definitely because he wanted to drink with Alpha, but he couldn't do it now.

The two deep-sea hunters got the inspection report issued by the laboratory and had a conversation with Kelsey. They actually knew their condition quite well, so they accepted the request to have a monitoring chip implanted under the skin of their wrist.And he received the world's only hematocyte activity inhibitor prepared by Alpha.

The ghost shark received an injection, and then the ominous sound from the deep sea that lingered in her mind disappeared. Various monitoring data showed that the activity of sea heir cells in her body returned to below normal levels, and this The transition will not have a negative impact on her physical health.Skadi had brought her share of the drug with her, and she wasn't sure when she should use it, but she was grateful for Alpha's help anyway.

"Alfa is not on the Life Star during this period, but the production line of the Life Star has not stopped. I am quite surprised." There was also a figure in the team heading to the tarmac. During this period, her engineering department was in addition to To test the imitation electromagnetic rifle, there is also a very important task - to build a new near-Earth aircraft.

All the equipment was produced on the Life Star production line. Under the guidance of Diesel, the staff of the engineering department strictly followed the implemented standards and technical requirements, and assembled the parts bit by bit into a brand new aircraft. The aircraft has been accepted after test flights and various tests, although Lucille felt that this process was a bit too fast.But when she thought about the production line of the Life Star to manufacture a high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft, it only took a few ten minutes from the start of construction to the aircraft taking to the sky. She felt that this process was actually conservative.

"Why not build a high-altitude manned aircraft?" Lucille once asked Alpha this question. After all, her equipment does not use Originium technology and will not be affected by the high-altitude environment.

However, the answer was for safety reasons. The attenuation effect of Originium at high altitudes may not only affect equipment, but may also affect the health of passengers. Before designing a new aircraft with corresponding protective functions, Alpha does not recommend that any ordinary person take it. Her aircraft challenges high-altitude flight.

……

This is the first practical flight of the new aircraft, and her route is direct from Siesta to the Great Knight Territory.

"Miss Ceylon came with a team from Siesta. On Alpha's side, the design of the volcano facilities has been completed, and construction is about to start. They are here to receive training." Kelsey explained to the doctor The purpose of this flight.

"I really want to go see Siesta." Kelu Xier sighed next to her. Every time Alpha prepares for a big project, she is the most excited. She can always get the authorization to observe and learn from them at close range. It is a miracle of engineering construction.For an outstanding contemporary young person like her who pursues technology and knowledge, every second of this opportunity is precious.

She has learned too much from Alpha, and the recently imitated electromagnetic rifle is only the most common part of it. In comparison, the homemade drone system has been improved for three generations, and its energy and intelligent control programs have been improved. Revolutionary updates were something she felt was slightly praiseworthy.

She had the courage to plan and prepare for such a large-scale plan to overhaul the Rhode Island's power system and upgrade its reactor, also because of the valuable technologies she learned while observing in the core city of Chernobog.

"Don't worry. After the various projects of the volcano project start to operate stably, Alpha said that we will open access to the tour. At that time, the engineering department may be able to contract some peripheral projects, which will give us a sense of participation." The doctor knows this. relatively clear.

"Speaking of which, doesn't ACE stay there with an artificial intelligence? Why do they ask a group of people to travel thousands of miles to come to us to learn?"

"I don't know about that." The doctor shrugged.

Kelsey, who was watching the aircraft slowly descending, took over, "Alfa arranged this trip herself. Judging from the overall situation, it should be used to confirm some speculations and consolidate her plan in Casimir. influence. But I am worried that this will have a negative impact on her and us."

"She has never suffered a loss in this kind of thing. I think we can trust her more." Lucille murmured.

"But this time, she is facing a big country, not an autonomous or independent city-state, nor a border separatist who is at odds with the central government." The doctor was somewhat worried.

What the three people who were thinking about national affairs didn't know was that Alpha's original purpose was to use Siesta's orthodox heir to represent a large independent city as his price tag.

However, there have been many hidden problems in operations. The capital turnover is poor and the brilliant shield industry is in urgent need of updated technology. It is more fragile than she imagined. With a sum of funds, the "chief" can easily implement several things on the continent of Terra. With her home car safety protection design, she easily obtained a proportion of Huihuangdun Industrial shares that exceeded her expectations.The other party urgently needs to change the status quo and seek to get out of trouble, and the "chief" who comes with funds and technology is just the life-saving straw.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the "chief" who hit the industry's pain points and dug deep into the industry's needs successfully obtained a seat on the board of directors of Brilliant Shield Industrial Group without using any special means. This gain far exceeded Alpha's expectations. She has now Successful backdoor listing in Casimir.She doesn't care at all whether this is caused by capital, because all she needs is the brand of Brilliant Shield.

Her first step, the "Chief" had already been achieved with a leather bag company.There is no need to move to Siesta or Rhode Island as a bargaining chip. This avoids the risk of exposing your identity and relationship network, and avoids countless troubles.

So she asked Ceylon to take this opportunity to bring a small delegation to Rhode Island. She simply wanted to fulfill Ceylon's dream of coming to Rhode Island. After all, because of the incident at the beginning, Ceylon came to Rhode Island. This matter has always made Kelsey quite resistant.

"The doctor is usually very busy, so don't bother him all the time." Alpha told Ceylon on the phone when planning this delegation.

"Then it shouldn't be a problem if you disturb him occasionally."

"Cough cough cough."

80.Lamp and long sword-end

That night, when Alpha returned to the Grand Knight's Territory, Xu Yu was waiting for her at the dining table in the apartment.She simply made a few side dishes, sat at the table and read quietly, waiting for Alpha's return.

In the living room of the apartment, the sword staff Hecate was placed calmly on the sword stand on the coffee table. There was a faint light flowing on its sword, which was the slight fluctuation that would occur when the energy system operated normally.

"Back." Xu Yu smiled and said hello when he saw the space rift appeared in front of him and Alpha emerged from it.

"Huh!" Alpha shouted, "It's done, we're back."

Sitting down at the dining table, Alpha picked up a spoon and tasted the soup cooked by Xu Yu. Usually in the canteen of the Star of Life or other places, Alpha would either cook or eat a big pot of rice, even though he knew Xu Yu was good at cooking. , but I didn’t expect that her skills were really good.

"What happened over there in Rhode Island that made you go back in such a hurry?"

"It's about the deep-sea hunters. Kelsey is worried about some of their characteristics and wants me to go back and take a look."

"Are they okay?"

"Fortunately, there won't be any trouble in the short term."

After taking two bites of food, Alpha looked at Xu Yu in front of her. She looked a little unnatural, as if she had done something wrong and wanted Alpha to forgive her.Of course Alpha knew why. There was a game today. If Alpha's body was not here, she should give up and admit defeat, but she finally participated in that game by herself.

"How was the result of the game?"

"The opponent is the noble lady we met in the first battle. I don't know how I got the points. She didn't make any progress. I defeated her easily." Seeing that Alpha didn't blame herself for this, Xu Yu sighed quietly. Only then did he express how the game made him feel.

"Okay." Alpha rubbed her forehead across the dining table, "I originally thought it would be fine if you didn't get hurt, but I didn't expect you could handle it easily. Not bad, not bad."
