How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 17: Chapter 17 Salt

The salt in Huo Gu dialect does not refer to sodium chloride, a salt that humans eat every day, but generally refers to a large category in the chemical system, that is, 'a class of metal ions or ammonium ions combined with acid ions or non-metallic ions'.

"I found it!"

After adjusting the vitreous body of his eyes several times, Huo Gu caught the smoke column rising from the bottom of the sea in the distance, which was the same as the volcanic smoke column on the seabed seen before.

"Sure enough..."

The original slightly panic suddenly settled down, and a conjecture in his heart was confirmed.

In addition to the pH of the aqueous solution, there is another important factor that leads to the protein degeneration of the cell membrane, which is temperature!

In the Underworld period, it was a dead Jedi that was only suitable for microbes to survive. During this period, the planet was a super giant steamer.

Why is there a torrential rain that lasts for millions of years?

That's why the high temperature of the core of the whole planet boils the sea water, and the water vapor falls back to the surface of the planet in the form of rainwater while dissipating heat at high altitude, and then evaporates again.

During this period, the water temperature of the sea is always maintained at the highest temperature of liquid water - 100 degrees! That is boiling water!

Life is very tenacious. Even in this extremely harsh environment, there is still life. Cell clusters and the microorganisms encountered before are living examples.

However, although a high temperature of 100 degrees cannot cause harm to these microorganisms, a low temperature can.

Salts are 'exothermic reaction' when they are formed, but because the water temperature is the highest 100 degrees, it will not have any impact, and the key point is after this.

Due to environmental factors, 'hydrolysis' will occur soon after these salts are formed, which is a 'heat-absorbing reaction'. In the process of hydrolysis, the water temperature is sucked away.

Therefore, in this world of 'steamer', 'low temperature' has been created.

Of course, this 'low temperature' is only the original microorganism of 100 degrees of boiling water from birth relative to the surrounding boiling water environment, but it is difficult to adapt to the 'low temperature' environment of 70-80 degrees.

"I said how the number of microorganisms collected in the digestive cavity plummeted..."

At the same time, he whispers himself and debugs the cell wiping mechanism.

After the debugging was completed, Huo Gu repaired the inner wall of the digestive cavity again and observed attentively, not to relax at all.

If there is still a problem, it means that there are still factors that it ignores, and it needs to be re-debugging the cell membrane.

Fortunately, everything went well. The new inner cells and wall cells were carrying out their work normally, and Huo Gu was relieved.

The eyes of the cell cluster looked at the smoke column in the distant waters. Huo Gu knew that it was also one of the culprits in creating neutral 'low temperature' waters.

Alkaline undersea volcano!

It is this kind of volcano and the acidic volcano from which they started. Under the action of the flow, the material meet and the acid and alkali are neutralize, creating enough salt to change the temperature of the nearby waters in this area.

"A further ahead is the alkaline water."

Huo Gu can imagine that there must be an ecosystem of alkaloid microorganisms near that volcano.

Do you want to go?

To be honest, Huo Gu really wanted to see what happened. As a scholar with a strong interest in biology, an unknown treasure house appeared in front of him, saying that he didn't want to find out if it was a lie.

There are always some human beings who dare to die for the pursuit of knowledge, and Huo Gu is one of them.

"Let's solve that matter first."

Huo Gu decided to let go of the exploration of alkaline waters first.

It is true that it dares to risk knowledge, but that does not mean that when there is a safer way, it will risk its life. That is not called 'not afraid of life and death', but 'IQ arrears'.

The cell cluster begins to replicate a large number of new individuals to expand the size of the whole cluster.

Originally, in order to ensure mobility, Huo Gu has been deliberately ensuring the quality of the cell cluster itself, but now, it needs more cells to confirm its ideas.

"I still understand that eggs can't be put in one basket. I hope the next experiment can proceed smoothly without any accidents."

"The power enhancement experiment of the life field is officially carried out!"

The cells listen to the change of instructions in the cell cluster and appropriately squeeze out the largest cavity so far, which is equivalent to three times the volume of the water storage cavity.

If you want to extend the 'life field' of cells to the outside world and impose instructions on the same individuals in the distance, there is only one choice - to increase the output power of the 'life field'! Read lat𝙚st chapters at nov(𝒆)lbin.com Only

"Come on, let me see if it works..."

"The inner cells are partially unswirled to make new individuals."

The internal cells that received the instructions begin to release enzymes and divide individuals.

This division is very fast, far exceeding the speed of all previous replication cells. Even the self-replication speed of phage is slightly inferior.

A micro-small cell equivalent to one percent of the inner cell,is separated from that inner cell.

This cell is very small, the gene chain is also very short, and the structure is also very simple. The cell membrane is thinner than the cell membrane of the original cell, and it does not even need aggressive microorganisms. The violent current alone can crush this cell membrane.

This is also the reason why it takes a short time to make it, just because its structure is too simple.

"New cells..."

Huo Gu thought of the use of this cell and had a plan in his mind.

"Well, let's call it 'perception cells'."

The replication of this new type of cells is in full swing in the cell cluster. Before long, this large cavity, which is three times the size of the water storage cavity, is full of perceptual cells.

Between the perceptual cells, Huogudu uses connective proteins to connect to form a huge micromatrix, and then the network composed of inner cells connects the whole cavity to ensure the replenishment of perceptual cells.

If you want to expand the field to the impact range, you need to enhance the power of the field, and if you want to enhance the power of the field, you need to start from the field source.

Although Huo Gu could not figure out what the essence of this life field is and why the field source is an emerald, this does not prevent it from enhancing the power of the field to a certain extent.

Increasing the number of field sources is an effective means to enhance the output power. In other words, as long as the number of controlled cells is large enough, the range of the life field will also expand.

Based on these factors, Huo Gu realized one thing - as long as the field source does not change, the contribution of large cells and micro cells to the life field should be equal, so if a large number of ultra-small controlled cells with only a field source are created, the power of the life field will be enhanced in appearance?
