What It’s Like Being a Vampire

Chapter 428 Golden Finger (Part 2)

Although the first ant that successfully had an impact died, Xiang Kun's experiment found a direction.

Next, he focused on the ant species he encountered in the mountain forest - the ant species Pseudomonas phoenix, and began to try again and again.

In the first few times, he was in a "super-sensory state" and continued to influence a single ant through "super-connected objects", causing some changes in its body and habits, and he was able to start to guide its behavior to a certain extent. .

But none of these ants could survive for long. The longest one only lasted three hours after the transformation took place and then died.

Then Xiang Kun finally relied on his interpretation of cognitive information in the "supersensory state" and after more than a dozen attempts, he successfully brought an ant into the "supersensory object system".

I don't know if this ant's IQ is too low, or the way he integrates is too rough and direct. The connection with Xiang Kun is very weak, and he doesn't feel as close to "Gold Shining" and "Egg Yolk Pie" at all.

However, after the ant was integrated into the "super-sensory object system", it was much easier for Xiang Kun to influence it, and he could also give it various instructions more clearly.

Of course, these instructions are still limited to where to go, what to eat, and what targets to attack, which are relatively simple and direct types.

But Xiang Kun clearly felt that the ant still had a strong sense of panic. Unless it was given constant orders, it would always be in a state of near mania and constantly want to attack other creatures around it.

After discussing with Lao Xia, Xiang Kun believed that this should be related to the characteristics of ants. All Formicidae live in social groups and have very strong social instincts.

Although the large worker ant of Pseudomonas phoenix that he had established contact with was greatly different from the original species under Xiang Kun's transformation, its instinct still made it try to find a new one that belonged to the species. its tribe, to perform its duties. Obviously, Xiang Kun has not yet been able to find a way to erase this instinct.

Xiang Kun's response plan is also very simple, which is to directly establish contact with a queen ant, pull it into the "super-sensory item system", and establish a simple social system of ants, so that the worker ant has a "queen" that can guard it. ".

Since there are phosphorus ants in the forest, there must be phosphorus ant queens. For Xiang Kun now, there is almost no creature he can’t find in the forest. possible.

In this season of continuous spring rain, not only the things that crawl on the ground, but also the things that fly in the sky, he is sure to get them within a certain range.

Xiang Kun didn't spend much effort.

I quickly found the ant nest, caught the queen, and with my experience, quickly established a relationship with the big-assed queen of the pseudo-photon ant, and integrated her into the "super ant". "Sensitive Object System".

To be honest, he didn't quite understand why he had failed to catch so many animals, but ants succeeded?

Xiang Kun did not continue to explore the special features of the ant for the time being. After establishing contact with the queen, and placing the former big worker ant next to the queen, its condition stabilized.

And Xiang Kun's control of the queen ant is much easier and easier than that of the worker ants.

Originally, Xiang Kun controlled the ant queen so that the former worker ants could find their social group affiliation again, but unexpectedly, the queen ant gave him a big surprise.

Just like the worker ant, Xiang Kun also exerted a series of effects on the queen through "super-sensory state" and "super-connection", causing considerable changes in its shape and even growing wings again. for flight.

After being caught by Xiang Kun and establishing contact, the queen ant and the worker ant were separated from their original colony. Xiang Kun took them back to a self-built house that they temporarily rented in Chongyun Village and kept them indoors.

Both the queen ant and the worker ants eat a very large amount of food, and their size increases rapidly. The queen ant has reached the size of Xiang Kun's thumb, while the worker ants are close to the size of his little finger.

The queen ant soon began to lay eggs. There were a lot of eggs, and they hatched quickly. The ants that hatched also had wings. Xiang Kun couldn't tell whether this was a colonial ant or a new one like the queen. "Flying worker ants" with wings. After all, he did not give the queen ant instructions to lay eggs. This was her spontaneous behavior.

But Xiang Kun soon determined that these winged ants were not colonial ants, but "flying worker ants".

And in addition to these "flying worker ants" with wings that can fly, there are also some small worker ants that are very small, about the same size as a grain of rice. These worker ants are also somewhat different from the original pseudo-photont ants.

After sensing the queen's intention, Xiang Kun put the new worker ants outside the house, and then discovered that those "flying worker ants" had strong flying abilities. If you didn't pay attention, you would think they were flies or bees.

Those "little worker ants" also move very quickly on the ground, and they know how to drill into holes and gaps, and they have strong burrowing ability.

Standing in the yard, Xiang Kun could clearly feel the location of these worker ants even without relying on his own senses, and he could also get some environmental information about the worker ants.

However, he did not get this information directly from these worker ants. He had no direct contact with these worker ants. He obtained this information through the queen ant who had established contact, and he also needed to indirectly issue tasks to these worker ants through the queen ant.

These worker ants are like weak sensing probes, relaying information through the queen ant.

The sensory information transmission between Xiang Kun, the queen ant, and the initial worker ant that established contact can almost ignore the distance and there is no delay in transmission. But the information transmission between those "flying worker ants", "little worker ants" and the queen ant is obviously not through the "supersensory object system".

Xiang Kun has not yet figured out the principle of information transmission between them, but through observation and experiments, he is very sure that this is not the original way ants transmit information, but more like the "mutated spider" he killed in the no-man's land of Qinling Mountains. Create "conversion branches" and "reconstruction branches" all over the place.

It seems that he unknowingly granted this ability to create special plants to the queen ant to a certain extent through the transformation of the "supersensory state".

The queen does not achieve this ability by grafting or reconstructing plants, but by laying eggs and using her worker ants to achieve the corresponding functions.

They should transmit information over short distances through the nodes one by one, and then converge to the queen ant.

Currently limited in quantity, the content and distance of information they can transmit are very limited, far inferior to Xiang Kun's own sensory capabilities.

But Xiang Kun could predict that when these special worker ants reach a certain number, they should be able to cover a large area in the future, just like the "mutated spider" that set up "branches" everywhere in the forest to provide warning. .

Moreover, in addition to sensing information, these "worker ants" obviously have many other applications.

After establishing a stable relationship, Xiang Kun asked Lao Xia, who was studying the ants with him, to name the queen ant and the first big worker ants.

Without any hesitation, Lao Xia gave the two ants "names" of "001" and "002". The big worker ant was "001" and the queen ant was "002". Simple, direct and Easy to remember.

At this time, what Zhou Rui discovered on the back of a chair on the side of the pedestrian street was actually one of the "flying worker ants" born by "Zero Zero Two" and was brought to the town by Xiang Kun.

After realizing that Zhou Rui, Mi Qiao, and Gao Shu were among the people who came to the restaurant for lunch at noon, Xiang Kun came up with the idea of ​​letting Zhou Rui "discover" a "flying worker ant" and realize the worker ant's Different, take it back and study it.

Although the research base and laboratory that Lao Xia helped him build are already under construction, and some of the equipment has been ordered, it will still take a long time before it is completed and put into use, and even if it is completed, he and Lao Xia will not have the relevant professional knowledge It still lacks a lot, and the equipment cannot be complete.

If "Shenxing Technology" is interested in that "flying worker ant" and conducts research, it will definitely be able to come up with a lot of research results that he and Lao Xia are currently unable to come up with.

He still has many questions about how his series of operations caused changes to the ants.

Through research and observation by the team of Zhou Rui and Dr. Fang, he was able to obtain more timely feedback through the black circle graffiti around Mi Qiao.

Even when necessary, they can guide their research direction through dreams within dreams.

From their research on "flying worker ants", it should be possible to get a glimpse of their research methods on "mutated organisms" to a certain extent.

Anyway, the "flying worker ants" have not established direct contact with him, so there is no need to worry about them finding out about him.

Originally, he was a little worried that Zhou Rui would not be able to discover the special characteristics of the "flying worker ant". If he really ignored it, he would have to find time to send it to their residence near Wushu Mountain.

Fortunately, Zhou Rui lived up to his label of "ant lover" and quickly discovered one of the eight "flying worker ants" arranged by Xiang Kun on the pedestrian street.

Behind Xiang Kun, Xia Libing also stood up from the dining table, sipping a bowl of hot soup while leaning next to him and looking out the window.

After sipping all the soup in the bowl and taking a breath of hot air, Xia Libing asked: "Did it succeed?" With her eyesight, it was natural that she could not see Mi Qiao, Zhou Rui and others who had gone away, but Xiang Kun had just told her his plan and purpose, and this was the plan she agreed to.

Xiang Kun lowered his head, looked at a "flying worker ant" parked on the back of his hand, and said, "Zhou Rui caught one and brought it back. Let's explore Mi Qiao's dream tonight and see what they think of this worker ant." The attitude is whether Zhou Rui will do the research himself or his team will do the research, and whether he will report it to the superiors."
