How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 23: Chapter 23 Volcano

A team of gourds slowly approached Huo Gu from afar under the displacement of water-spray propulsion.

In fact, Huo Gu did not abandon the design of the gourd because of the new design. After the general prototype of the whole rhizome system was constructed, part of the organic matter was allocated to recreate the new gourd group.

Of course, in order to avoid the recurrence of the epidermis such as being cut by stones, the cumulative superposition of wall cell death is used to create a single thin cuticle with a certain degree of toughness on the outside of wall cells.

If it is just washed up to the coast, the stone can no longer cut the skin of the gourd, unless it encounters a disaster like a fierce wave again.

The price of rising defense is the decline of speed, but it doesn't matter. The positioning of the gourd has changed from 'escaper' to 'gatherer', which exists as a mobile collection platform in the ocean.

The rhizome system covering the seabed has a limit, that is, it can only collect organic materials close to the seabed. Unlike land, it is a three-dimensional activity space. If it is only organic materials in a two-dimensional plane, it is undoubtedly a waste.

The gourd group is close to the tumor-like mass. There are dozens of concave holes in a certain part of the tumor-like mass. The head of the gourd individual is docked with the hole, thus completing the whole process of transferring organic materials.

Considering the transportation problems when building the rhizome system, Huo Gu simply designed the compartment cavity of the perceptaural cell to store the materials.

These transferred materials, amino acids will be dehydrated and condensed to form proteins, and then peeled from the aqueous solution and stored in a special cavity. So are the other elements collected. After being made into a single substance, they are stored in a special cavity for future use.

Everything is going smoothly as expected. Rather, the design of the rhizome system takes too much time to complete than the collection of organic materials. nove(l)bi(n.)com

The current situation is that organic materials are tight.

Therefore, about designing a more efficient, fast and long-lasting cell set group than the ability of gourds to move in water, Huo Gu decided to put it away for the time being and wait for a period of time before considering it.

There is another thing that Huogu needs to do, which is to find out the specific situation of the volcanic island. There is such a dangerous neighbor around it, and it is necessary to confirm the authenticity of some information with his own eyes.

After all, it is related to its own life and death. It doesn't want to be suddenly surprised by this neighbor. Many things in the world may happen so suddenly, such as its original 'travel'.

Distract part of your attention and focus it on the main root that is climbing the columnar joint stone wall. On this main root, there is an eye, which is convenient for Huo Gu to observe the external environment.

Through the image of the electrical signal transmitted from his eyes, Huo Gu finally saw the inland area of the volcanic island far away from the coast at close range, what it looked like.

Desolate, very desolate. After turning over the stone wall, the whole plane above is a whole large rock. The rock is full of cracks shaped like the lines on the turtle's crust, but these cracks only exist on the big rock, but not on the small stone.

Huo Gu estimated that this is the result of rapid cooling. Even boiling water, in the face of lava flow at a high temperature of at least 700 degrees Celsius, almost similar to cold water, can have the same 'cooling' effect as cold water.

The main root bends from the edge of the stone wall and grows horizontally on the stone surface.

At the same time, the roots on the main root are not idle. Going deep into the surrounding stone surface can not only provide fixation for the main root, but also let Huo Gu understand the surrounding elemental structure.

The eyes on the main root look at the highest peak in the center of the island, which is still emitting a lot of smoke and dust, like a huge factory chimney.

Soon, the main root came to the foot of the mountain, where there were a large number of small pieces of gravel and volcanic glass.

These small gravels were originally stones on the edge of the crater. They were scorched by the volcano, and the heavy rain that had been falling day and night in the ancient world. When it was cold and hot, they would soon be unbearable. They broke into such small stones and glazed crystals and rolled to the foot of the mountain, thus creating the current landscape.

If it is before, it may be more troublesome, because it is necessary to consider the sharp edges and corners of gravel and glaze.

But now, this kind of terrain is no longer a problem for Huo Gu.

The movement of the main root is not driven by limbs, but by 'growth', which is similar to plants, relying on cell division to achieve displacement.

Slow is a little slower, but this slowness is relative to animals. Compared with plants, it is super speed, because there is a super consciousness like Huo Gu in macro-control.

The main root lay down fearlessly and went straight to the top of the mountain.

Considering that this steep slope is composed of small gravel and glazed blocks, and there is a possibility of landslide, especially in the environment that is always washed away by rain, Huo Gu dispatched a main root, like the Panshan Highway, which goes to the top of the mountain in a way that surrounds the volcano, so that even if the original main root falls off due to landslides,The main root surrounded by .uukanshu.com can also replace the first one, but it will take more time.

Fortunately, Huo Gu did not use the second main root, and the first main root came to the crater at the top of the mountain.

Thick smoke and hot air, because it is an alkaline volcano, the concentration of metal ions in the air is very high. In this environment, all the iron sand on the ground turns into magnets.

The main root cannot move forward by half a bit. If it goes further, the temperature will reach the flammable point and ignite spontaneously.

In such a close place, because it is not at the bottom of the sea and there is no immediate cooling of water, it is easy to see the red and shiny lava in the volcano, and there are still bubbles from time to time.

"Well, this is an active volcano, not a dormant volcano. I shouldn't have any luck." Huo Gu laughed at himself.

Since crossing into this posture, Huo Gu has been hiding in the east and being careful. Now he is finally able to temporarily have a reassuring base, and unconsciously sprouted 'Maybe I'm lucky. This volcano has been dormant, and the smoke coming from the crater is a column of smoke formed by the evaporation of water vapor. What a lucky idea.

Now, this delusion is broken, and at the same time, Huo Gu is also relieved. It deeply understands that its delusion is broken, which can't help its current situation, but may put itself in danger.

In a dangerous world, any fluke should not exist. With this lesson and as a warning, it will not be so easy to make such mistakes in the future.

Of course, Huo Gu came to such a place close to the crater not only to correct his mentality, but also one more important thing to confirm.

The main root wraps a small piece of volcanic debris very close to the crater into the main root.
