planter of the future

The apocalypse of the orcs, the end of mankind.

After the apocalypse, the human form of the orcs became half-human and half-beast; after the apocalypse, humans became zombies and supernatural beings.

The two are similar, but the two planets are separated by an unknown number of light years, can this also be connected?

An Yi frowned, looking at Langye with eyes like a magic stick.

Langye didn't care, and continued: "Let's talk about our orcs first. Before the apocalypse, our civilization was quite developed. You have mastered technology, and we have mastered the magic of nature. But after the apocalypse, the orcs and the beasts The communication between them has been cut off, we can no longer control the beasts as before, we can't communicate with them, and we can't hear the sounds of nature... It's like your technology has gone back to the stone age in an instant.

Instead, our fusion with the companion beasts resulted in an individual's increased power.

But this is not a good thing. "

"The orcs have become aggressive and aggressive, and they are very hostile to the human forms of the orcs, because the human-shaped orcs can still control the beasts. This is why almost all the orc royals still retain their human forms.

But at that time, the apocalypse was opened, and the power of humanoids was weak, but the power of orcs was very strong, so the number of humanoid orcs dropped sharply, and even the newly born humanoid orcs would be killed directly.

Brothers against each other, tribes against each other, bloodshed, killing, and even hunting.

What is the difference between such a beast race and a fierce beast? "

"The apocalypse changed the orcs, and even the entire planet. So after I heard about the end of human beings, I once thought that the apocalypse was an outbreak of some kind of virus. But it wasn't until I discovered the information of these relics that I realized that it wasn't so Something happened."

As he said that, Langye took out a chip from his trouser pocket, and An Yi recognized that it was a portable smart chip launched by Ansonst two months ago, which was very popular among young people.

The chip landed on the table, and the sheets of paper-like light screens were spread out to a length of two meters, and then folded into two rows. The upper row was the original data collected by Longye, and the lower row was his own analysis records.

An Yi looked at those materials and found that the paintings on them were all...

"Bugs?" An Yi was not sure, because they had different shapes, some were like worms, some were like centipedes, and some were like earthworms.

"Yes. This kind of bug is the truth of the apocalypse. We call them puppet bugs, or amoebas." Langye said, zooming in on the upper row of light screens, and temporarily putting away the lower ones.

"These records are all collected from the relatively complete ruins of the major tribes. The history of the apocalypse is recorded in the major tribes. Although the forms of these bugs are different, they all have a common feature... Ah, those orc characters in the lower right corner, summed up as follows: gods come from the earth, come to the body of the orcs, and bless the orcs."

Longye replaced the light screen with his own research notes.

"After a lot of research, I came to these conclusions—of course, there are too many data. If I reach a cooperation, I will share all my research results over the years with you so that you can confirm the authenticity. But now please Take my word for it for now.

The apocalypse happens in the spring, and the golems appear out of nowhere.

The orcs parasitized by them will become weak at first, and then some of them will become puppets of puppet insects. If the puppet insects want to eat fruit, they will eat it; if the puppet insects want to eat companion animals, they will eat them ;puppets feel that they have extra body parts, and they don't hesitate to self-mutilate...

I want to say that this is not as simple as biological instinct. Puppets are powerful and intelligent.They come from the ground and are an existence older than the orc race. "

Lilith frowned, interrupted Langye and said: "They are just parasites, and you orcs have successfully immunized them, now the puppets are no longer in your body, are they?"

"That's what I want to say." Langye pointed to his body, then to An Yi and the others: "They are still in our body, and they are also in your body."

An Yi instantly had goosebumps, having bugs in his body or something, it was too unappetizing.

"You mean, the puppet worms have always survived on the holy star and are everywhere, but now all creatures are parasitized?" Lilith asked back, obviously not convinced.Because they have detailed inspection equipment and will conduct regular physical examinations, if there are parasites in the body, they will be found early.

"You misunderstood me." Longye said calmly, "But before that, I want to tell you that the human form of the orc race is not only possible to 'return to the ancestors'. For example, I am a new orc. We were born When we are in animal form, but when we are four or five years old, we can transform into human form, and then we have both animal form and human form at the same time.

All this is because our ancestors interbred with humans. "

The faces of the three of An Yi were very exciting.

An Yi raised his forehead directly: "Wait, you wait. Hybridization? Cross-species? What are you kidding?"

"It's not a joke. Hundreds of years ago, some human beings—I later learned that they were the remnants of the white sharks—entered the Xifan Forest, and were attacked by orcs, and some of them were brought to our tribe. Also It was then that we really began to understand human civilization.

And it just so happens that our tribe has humanoid orcs, each takes what they need, you know. "

An Yi: "..."

I really don't want to understand.

"Afterwards, people were surprised to find that they were able to give birth, and the first batch of new orcs appeared in this way. Human civilization also survived and continued in the tribe. After that, we began to walk out of the forest and contact humans, and then there were the current situation."

Langye leaned forward, put his hands on the table, looked at the three people opposite him sincerely, and said, "I said this to say that our orcs and you humans have the same origin in a sense. At least for the puppets That being said, the environment that parasitizes us is very similar.

Another coincidence is that I learned that in the age of the earth, humans found a creature on planet 13, which humans call Gaia.And this planet, which you call the Holy Star, was called Gaia before the apocalypse. "

"What does this mean?" An Yi was puzzled: "The two planets are so far apart, because of the same name, they were forcibly bridged?"

"Please calm down and listen to me." Longye said with a smile: "As I said just now, we and you can almost be classified as one species in a biological sense. I said this to say that the parasites of puppet insects will choose the most The way it works, the consequences would be similar if it parasitized our ancestors.

My ancestors put forward this conjecture, and I studied it as an established result, and then I found something.

In my opinion, the puppet worm itself is a gene fuser, which can perfectly edit and fuse genes, and transform them into a shape suitable for its survival.After the apocalypse and the end, the orcs and companion beasts, and the mechanical zombies of humans are all excellent examples. "

"I even think that the coincidence of the name 'Gaia' is not 'coincidence'.

The end of humanity takes place after the apocalypse.After the apocalypse was stabilized, the puppet worms went underground again. I think that when the beasts fought fiercely, the powerful beast kings fought, which almost led to the destruction of this planet, and because of this, part of the planet became a meteorite—I believe you can see See the description on the mural about Splitting the Continent.That is true.

If we want to divide planetary civilizations into levels, they can be primitive civilization, technological civilization, and super civilization. We belong to super civilization.Of course, this is not detailed. "

"That meteorite is naturally the one you found on planet 13. The frozen mollusk on it is the puppet worm. And the gene of the puppet worm has been fused with the orc that has been transformed for it. Gene.

After humans captured the puppet worm, I studied the historical materials in detail, and you named it not Gaia at the beginning, but 13y731.It wasn't until you extracted the gene and found out that there is a super self-healing gene in its gene, and successfully achieved results in humans, and when it was announced to the public, you named it Gaia.

Before that human experiment, there were many undisclosed human experiments.It was later confirmed that its first experimenter was the person in charge of the experiment. Because the person in charge suffered from cancer, he voluntarily became the subject of the experiment; and the name Gaia was also named after him.

I think that when he was named, he was already infected, and the name was based on the consciousness of the puppet in his body—of course, it was just a consciousness guide.Because what he injected was the original gene that had been transformed. For a human body similar to that of an orc, it would not cause rejection. On the contrary, it cured cancer and even strengthened that person's body.This is also the reason why the Gaia plan is implemented so quickly among human nations.

Of course, later humans reproduced and edited the genes of the puppet insects, and after a lot of experiments, they also tasted bad results. "

After Langye finished speaking, there was a dead silence in the reception room.

Gaia, known as the existence of Dawn by humans, was the murderer who pushed humans into hell.

the source of everything.

Langye didn't seem to notice the complex emotions of the three of them, and continued: "The basis for my conjecture is not only because of previous research, but also because after studying with human scientists, I found that our genes have indeed changed. Of course, this conclusion has been drawn by human beings as early as the earth age, but you have not understood what the changed gene means.

That's part of the golem.

The humans and orcs who successfully resisted the parasitism of the puppet worms devoured that gene in turn.Then became who we are now.

That's why I said that the puppet worms are still inside us. "

"boom!"

An Yi suddenly stood up, put his hands on the table and took a deep breath, then he walked back and forth in the meeting room a few times anxiously, and then returned to the table.

An Yi looked at Langye and said, "If, I said, if, your guess is true. Then you said before that the puppet worms are intelligent, so they must have a purpose for this kind of suicidal parasitism .And that purpose is why you want to form an alliance with us?"

Langye's eyes lit up, as if he admired An Yi's sensitivity.

Langye nodded and said: "That's right. According to my previous guess, the puppet worms who followed the meteorite to planet 13 got the gene after the successful transformation of the orcs and returned to the ground again. From the size of the puppet worms, From the perspective of scale outbreaks and parasitism, I believe this is not a special behavior of individuals.

In other words, they voluntarily broke away from their hosts, and the genes of the puppet worms left in our bodies may not be taken away by them.

So, why do they not occupy our brains after successfully parasitizing, but go back to the ground? "

An Yi's eyeballs rolled, his head turned quickly, and he suddenly widened his eyes: "Evolution."

Langye smiled, looking at An Yi's eyes, he felt like he had found a confidant: "That's right! Evolution, their purpose is to evolve.

The reason for their outbreak is because they want to obtain the modified gene, and then they go back underground to deliver the obtained gene.What's underground attracts them, drives them, and is also the reason and purpose of their evolution. "

Langye's eyes calmed down again, he looked at Ares, and said: "The unknown purpose of the puppet's evolution is the reason why I want to form an alliance with St. Tona. I think that compared to the war between humans, The war between the orcs, there are more cruel things waiting for us."

An Yi was stunned, and he sat back in his seat, lost in thought.

Ares stretched out his hand to hold An Yi's hand. He still looked calm, unmoved, and his eyes were as firm as steel that would never be shaken.

An Yi looked at Ares, and her heart suddenly settled down.

An Yi took a deep breath, letting himself think again.And at this moment, an immature child's voice suddenly sounded in An Yi's mind: "Damn it! So it's because of bugs?"

An Yi was taken aback, and asked in his mind: "Number 1?"

"Call the old ancestor, evil son!" No. 1 was obviously in a bad mood. After yelling, he yelled several times in An Yi's head, and when he had vented enough, he opened his mouth again.

"The transformation of those bugs is obviously more inclined to spiritual transformation. Ask him what research results are there on the spiritual influence of bug genes."

An Yi immediately gained confidence - the system was more knowledgeable than any of them, and knew more about Saint Star than any of them.

An Yi's face froze, narrowed his eyes, made his standard "earl" expression, and asked: "Langye, how is the genetic research on those puppet insects going now? I mean, spiritually, because I found out The royal clans of your orc clan seem to have the ability to control the mind."

Langye's pupils shrank, but then he smiled again: "Indeed, I found that compared with human beings, the spiritual abilities of the orcs are more common. Only the puppet insects have the influence of the orc gene, and it may be that the environments of the two planets are purely different. But other discoveries, unfortunately, are still under research."

"Ask him, the orcs must have a tribe that worships puppet insects, and there is more information there." No. 1 directed again.

An Yi repeated the question of No. 1.

This time, Longye felt a little bit in danger about An Yi's sensitivity: "Yes, there is, for example, the revival of the orc tribe mentioned by the snake people branch. In fact, in those tribes, they think that the gods, that is, the puppet worms, will come back again. come."

"What!" Lilith was shocked.

Longye spread his hands: "So I want to form an alliance with you. Time is running out. The technological level of Ansenster City is much higher than that of our tribe."

No. 1 immediately shouted in An Yi's mind: "Ghosts will believe it! That stupid wolf is so kind, he just wants to use you as a breakthrough.

You are now on the holy star, the bugs on the holy star did not have your genes back then.On the contrary, the genetic mutations on the earth have the genes of the orcs.Your evolution is actually more diverse than theirs, and there are more possibilities.Of course, to bugs, you are more attractive than them.

Hold on tight, when the bugs do come, Ansenster City is the perfect bait box. "

An Yi's eyes widened immediately, and then narrowed dangerously. He stood up and supported the table, leaned forward, and looked at Langye coldly with his blood-colored eyes: "If a puppet worm wants to become stronger, he must accept it." Diversified modified genes. For them, your genes have already been tasted, but they have not tasted the genes of us and human beings from the earth.

When you say you form an alliance with us, do you want to fight side by side with us, or are you just using us as bait to catch puppet worms? "

"I did think so." Longye admitted frankly.

"Crack." A layer of frost quickly covered the table, forming two ice roads, which turned into countless ice cones on the edge of the table, and instantly pressed against Langye's throat, even scratching his skin, thin blood The thread slid down his skin.

"Wow!" Lang Ji blew up, and it even jumped onto the table several times higher than it, howled at Ares, and turned around to bite the ice picks.

Langye didn't move, he looked at An Yi quietly, and said: "But I gave up that idea. It's not because I like human beings so much, but because I can't know whether it's really those who came out of the ground again. Soft bugs."

"What do you mean?"

"The Gaia on your earth is nearly a hundred times bigger than the puppets when the apocalypse broke out."

An Yi was taken aback, and Ares thought, and all those ice cones turned into ice mist and disappeared.

"Aww..." Lang Ji jumped into Langye's arms, laying his front paws on Langye's chest, stretched his neck, and pitifully licked Langye's wound with his tender tongue .

Langye patted Langji's back reassuringly, then wrapped his arms around him, hugged him, and stroked him gently.

"Many, many years have passed since the apocalypse. We don't know how far those puppet insects have evolved. But I think there is a [-]% chance that they will come out of the ground again and will no longer adopt parasitic methods. For example, use Calm mind control ability." Langye sighed and said, "I didn't want to say it, but I didn't expect you to be so keen."

An Yi raised her eyebrows and accepted the compliment calmly.

Longye continued: "The reason why I ask for an alliance is not only because of the level of human technology. It is also because of my tribe.

As I said before, we are the new orcs.But the new orcs are not the only orcs like us who can switch forms at will.There are also less successful ones.Some of them are humanoid, but have some animal features, such as ears, tails, or stripes; some can only maintain the animal shape for the rest of their lives, but their IQ is different from those of the orc beasts, and their IQ is the same as ours , just can't speak human words.

Compared with supernatural beings, their combat effectiveness is not high, especially the new orcs in human form, they need to be adequately protected. "

An Yi nodded, it sounded like a human saying.

"After the alliance, Ansenster took in the orcs of our tribe. I will give you the research results of our tribe for so many years and help you guard Ansenster City." Longye looked at Ares seriously and said: "I believe It's a win-win outcome."

"I will think about it." Ares did not give an answer immediately, but said to Langye and the others: "You can stay in the manor, or go back."

"I'll stay and wait for your answer."

"Ah."

Ares nodded, and then called Phil.Ask Phil to lead a small group of guards and be responsible for "taking care" of Longye and them.

Also, the two groups of people adjourned temporarily.Lilith even rushed back to the council immediately to hold an emergency meeting.

An Yi and Ares returned to the study.

As soon as he entered the door, Ares asked An Yi: "Did the system ask you what you asked just now?"

An Yi was taken aback: "How do you know?"

Ares chuckled: "Your mood changes too fast."

An Yi: "..."

Is this saying I'm not smart in disguise?

An Yi rolled his eyes and said: "No. 1 asked. It seems to have agreed with Langye's statement. And from the tone of voice, it seems to have been looking for something related to the puppet. But it only knows about the puppet. statement."

This is not surprising. In the books provided by the system, there is no record about the civilization of the orcs.

"If what Langye said is true, it will be troublesome." Ares frowned slightly.

"Yeah, yeah." An Yi walked into the chair, sat back with a big horse, and said, "It feels like, we were just lucky to see a small map, and finally opened a small copy of five people. Who would have thought that as soon as I entered, I would find a wild picture inside that I had never seen before, what an exciting life~"

Ares was funny, sat next to An Yi, and held An Yi's hand: "Are you afraid?"

An Yi turned to look at Ares and smiled: "There is you."

"Well, there's me." Ares put An Yi's hand on his lips and kissed it.

"Are you going to agree to Longye's alliance?"
