Arknights, but keeping Terra in captivity

Chen Ran didn't quite understand, and walked forward with confusion.

I walked over to the new planet model and looked at it for a while.

And that translucent pop-up window arrived late but still—

"Behold, a newborn planet"

"To those billions of creatures, this is their entire world, but to the gods, it is just a beautiful glass marble, worthy of collection."

The translucent pop-up window flickered several times, and finally, just like last time, it began to introduce the current status of the planet model:

The First Biological Explosion

Chen Ran: “…”

Why don’t you start from when Pangu created the world?

"But this time it's starting from the beginning? And it's not Terra anymore?"

"why?"

"Is it because I set up a model of a galaxy last time, but this time it's just a single planet?"

While Chen Ran was guessing why the two results were different, he also walked to the previous solar system... no, it should be the planet model of Hai Si's extinction line.

Just like he caught Turbid Heart Skadi last time, Chen Ran reached out this time, trying to catch a sea snake.

... ... ...

... ...

...

Not long ago——

The entire Haisi group fell into chaos.

They followed Turbid Skadi into the starry sky, and when they were about to travel the universe, a majestic figure whose body spanned the entire galaxy, a god, appeared before them.

Then the god, with an expression that said "I'm going to take your mother away", captured Skadi the Turbid in front of them.

"Kaiji 1: Wow, this is the Sea of ​​Stars... but why is there no water?"

"Kaiji 2: I don't know."

"Haisu 3: Why can we breathe in the sea of ​​stars?"

"Kaiji 4: I don't know."

"Kaiji 5: What's that? It's a huge person!"

"Kaiji 6: I don't know."

"Kaiji 7: Isamara! Isamara has been captured!"

"Kaiji 8: I don't know... Isamara! Isamara's been kidnapped!"

Suddenly, the entire Haisi group was in chaos.

They wanted to rescue Ishamara, but the majestic figure of the god had disappeared.

No matter how hard the Hai Si herd chased, it seemed as if there was an invisible barrier blocking them.

Until the figure of the god appeared before them again.

Just like last time, the god still crossed half the galaxy with one hand and came before them.

The difference was that this time the god started to choose. Among the densely packed group of sea snakes, the god finally picked out a sea snake that looked like a small flower and captured it.

"Kaiji 1: Hana! Hana's been captured too!"

"Haisi 2: Why did the God take Xiaohua away?"

"Kaiji 3: Did the God take Xiaohua away because he liked her appearance?"

As this conclusion was reached, a small part of Hai Si transformed himself into the appearance of a small flower.

If the great god comes next time and still takes Xiaohua away, then I guess the entire Haisi group will evolve into the appearance of Xiaohua.

006. Your Haisi No. 1 is eating heartily

Chen Ran looked at the small flower that he was holding between two fingertips and nodded with satisfaction.

The reason why I chose this little flower after a long time is because this little thing is at least acceptable, while the other Hai Si...sigh...

Although the place where the rhizome should be on this little flower was twisting wildly like a tentacle, and the place where the petals should be was opening and closing, revealing circles of mouthparts inside, it was really too embarrassing.

But who says this thing is small?

Zhuoxin Skadi is only the size of a figurine, and this little flower is even smaller.

Fortunately, the idea that "God is kind-hearted" has been conveyed to every sea god through the hive collective thinking. The little flower did not struggle or scream, but just like their sea god Ishamara, it looked at Chen Ran like a curious baby.

Although Chen Ran didn't know where the eyes of this little flower were.

However, Chen Ran didn't waste any words and said directly, "I remember the setting I saw just now, Hai Si can voluntarily degenerate and return to his most basic form, waiting for an adapted environment to evolve again, right?"

The little flower heard it and wanted to speak, but found that it had not yet evolved vocal cords. It wanted to use hive thinking to convey information, but found that it was silenced.

As a last resort, the little flower had to shake its tentacles to express its affirmation.

"Oh, that's okay, right?" Chen Ran nodded: "Then commit suicide."

When the little flower heard this, it did not express any doubt, but quickly withered and died.

Because as the God of Sea Si, among the four newborns, there is one who represents and controls the power of "survival", and one of his abilities is to make Sea Si commit suicide.

Even Skadi, who was wringing out clothes nearby, did not express any doubt about this.

So what Chen Ran said was perfectly normal to that little flower.

What was originally body tissue quickly rotted into a pool of flesh, and the small flower degenerated into a white embryo again.

When Chen Ran looked at the meat paste, his first reaction was to collect it and study it carefully.

But after looking at Zhuoxin Skadi beside him, he said that it seemed unnecessary. If he wanted something, he could just get it from Zhuoxin Skadi.

So, holding the embryo, Chen Ran put his hand in the bathtub and shook it. After cleaning his fingertips and the embryo, he walked to the model of the new planet and then -

Throw the embryo in.

This means that the little flower will delete its account and start over. From now on, all the abilities acquired by the little flower will be fed back to Chen Ran himself.

Clapping his hands, Chen Ran looked at the newborn planet and waited quietly.

"The water stains left on your fingertips brought a rainy period lasting a hundred years to this planet."

"Land is flooded, sea levels are rising, and oxygen levels are plummeting."

The first mass extinction

Chen Ran: “…”

No, I just didn't wipe my hands...

Forget it.

Go ahead and watch.

"Year One: Haisi No. 1, whom you have placed high hopes on, is staring blankly at the rainy day."

Chen Ran: “?”

Chen Ran: "And then?"

Seeing that the translucent pop-up box only flashed twice and then stopped moving, Chen Ran asked subconsciously.

But then Chen Ran looked at the newborn planet's rotation speed, and then looked at the translucent pop-up box that showed it was calculated in years...

It can't be that I have to wait for the planet model to rotate once before this translucent pop-up box will be updated again, right?

Thinking this, Chen Ran watched the planet model slowly spin around once—

"Year Two: Haisi No. 1, whom you placed such high hopes on, is almost starving to death."

Chen Ran: “…”

Well, that’s really the case.

So Chen Ran thought about it, then stretched out his hand and pinched the planet model in his hand like a glass marble.

Then, following the direction of rotation of the planet model, he gently turned it—

The entire planet model began to rotate at a speed hundreds of times faster.

"As your petri dish, you can't wait to see the final result, so you plan to give this newborn planet a little God-shaking."

"Time is starting to speed up."

"Year xxx: The rainy season is over"

"Year xxx: The Second Biological Explosion"

"Year xxx: Haisi No. 1, having starved to death and regressed into an embryo, sensed the change in the environment and came back to life."

When the translucent pop-up window flashed here, it suddenly flashed again in front of Chen Ran's eyes:

"You have gained a new ability: a second life"

"Oh haha."

Seeing this, Chen Ran knew that he had made the right bet.

But a second life?

Is it resurrection after death, or is it like a boss battle, where the health bar is restored the moment it is empty?

This... seems like I can't experiment even if I want to.

So Chen Ran put the matter aside for the time being and continued to look at the newborn planet.

"Year xxx: Hai Si: "What is this? Eat a bite."

"Year xxx: Hai Si: "What is that? Eat a bite."

"Year xxx: Hai Si: "I'm eating, eating, eating!""

"Year xxx: Your Haisi No. 1 is feasting."

"Year xxx: Your Haisi No. 1 is eating like crazy"

"Year xxx: The Third Mass Extinction"

"You have gained a new ability: increased appetite."

"Your current appetite is equivalent to one-tenth of Ceobe's."

Chen Ran: “…”

Damn retarded.

He didn't think this so-called new ability was outrageous. After all, he had already prepared himself mentally with the previous examples of "breathing with gills" and "breathing with lungs".

What Chen Ran couldn't hold back was that he had been staring at it the whole time, so he knew very well that the so-called third mass extinction of life had nothing to do with that sea squirrel. After all, no matter how much it could eat, it was just a sea squirrel. Could it really eat up the entire planet?

But when these two pieces of information are put together, it's quite interesting.

Although Chen Ran was also very clear that if the situation on Earth was copied, the previous biological outbreaks would not pose much of a threat to the sea creature.

But are you really going to just leave it there and keep eating it?

So how on earth could the Argonauts fight against this kind of thing on Arknights?

After seeing that the rotation speed of the newborn planet was gradually slowing down, Chen Ran didn't care anymore.

Just treat it as an idle harvesting game. When you gain new abilities, you can come and take a look.

"But even if I really treat it as a game of collecting food, with the way that Kaisi eats..."

Chen Ran took a few steps back, turned around and glanced at his desk.

Can you proactively increase the difficulty for that Haisi?

For example, Hai Si fighting against a hundred-meter-long American cockroach, or Hai Si fighting against a hamster as big as a mountain?

After all, Hai Si can actively choose to evolve based on the environment and threats, so being forced to take the initiative is still taking the initiative.
