Sword and Magic and Taxi
Chapter 596 The self that is not your own
Living in Ranger Carl's cabin, Zhao Mai rarely felt like home again. There was a hole in the wooden hard bed, and the fur quilt still smelled like a fox. The moonlight that came through the gaps in the tree canopy to accompany me was still silent, and the cat was not honest after falling asleep, with its body wrapped around the branches and its head hanging in the air. A boa constrictor swaying back and forth.
After traveling through time, I got my first peaceful sleep here, and this feeling came back to me. Unfortunately, feeling safe does not mean feeling sleepy. Zhao Mai's body is still like a boiling pot. Theophylline, caffeine and various vitamin functional drinks are undergoing nuclear fusion together, continuously providing exciting energy. It is said that the behavior of staying up in the middle of the night is called cultivating immortality. Zhao Mai claims to have become a god, so why does he continue to cultivate immortality?
He knows his own condition well. Although he has taken various reassurance medicines for Xiao Hua and the food reserves, how can Zhao Mai's current condition be solved by a dose of immortality medicine? Under the influence of massive natural force and psychic powers, Zhao Mai's cells mutated too fast, exceeding Zhao Mai's original prediction and control. Those tissues and organs that suddenly swell and should not exist at all are the most obvious example. If placed on an ordinary person, this kind of lesion is called cancer.
Ordinary cancer is nothing to a druid. Natural transformation can remove early cancerous tissue. Druid spells such as disease removal and restoration can solve most symptoms. Besides, there is also reincarnation to support it. end. Zhao Mai's situation is similar. He can use his ability to transform at any time to change into another body and live healthily. But his problem is that there is something wrong with his original and most fundamental body: Zhao Mai doesn't know what it is to be Zhao Mai. .
In the last evolution, Zhao Mai added new organs to his cells, greatly increasing the level of application of various energies and substances. When he needs the ghost ship carapace for defense, the Z-worm will start working, obtaining materials from Zhao Mai's body to build protective armor for him. But this time, constantly exploding and restoring, and evolving in order to survive, the Z-worm has completely become a part of Zhao Mai's body, including most of the cells, including the brain.
In theory, this change has no impact. The Z worm is originally a part of Zhao Mai and will not harm Zhao Mai like cancer cells. His spirit, will, memory and thinking are also intact, and it is even easier than before to use the Z-worm's special abilities. But in this case, is Zhao Mai still a human being? Or should I say it's a humanoid Z-worm? If there are descendants, what will they be? Planet Z people? The Z-worm still carries the genome of the ghost ship, will it give birth to a ship girl? (Thank you book friends for your ideas)
These are only part of the problem, and the remaining problems are even bigger. The most difficult thing for a person to understand and know is himself, and Zhao Mai has really turned himself into a one-person ecosystem this time. He can't tell which genetic characteristics are originally his own, and which are potential genes dug out from his bloodline. , which were obtained through this rapid evolution. All the druid's healing and restoration spells are powerless against this situation, as no spell can reverse evolution.
As Lamashtu cursed, I will have no human descendants. Zhao Mai smiled bitterly and covered his face with his hands. Even if Zhao Mai transforms into other creatures, his cells will have the same strength and ability as now, and this is a change at the genetic level. In the past, he only had more cells and organs than others, but this time he has completely become a separate creature, a new species.
It's too big... Zhao Mai shook his head and laughed at himself. He has no regrets at all for the behavior that caused this result. Without enough energy to make a breakthrough, he would not be able to suppress the realm of God and restore the food reserves to normal. Even if he had it to do over again, he would still make the same choice. But if he could go back to an earlier moment, he would have been more careful not to put his dog in danger.
Although mistakes can make people progress, there are some mistakes that cannot be made. One's own cells have indeed evolved, but it does not mean that one's intelligence has evolved, or that one has no enemies. Especially the former, the three-eyed jackal can pinpoint Zhao Mai's weaknesses by simply inferring from the facts in front of him, and Zhao Mai thought that he was already very comprehensive, and even a little complacent.
I have not become smarter because of evolution. The excess energy in brain cells and nerve cells has increased reaction speed and increased tolerance to long-term and high-intensity thinking, but it has not improved intelligence. Intelligence is a comprehensive consideration of knowledge, insight, thinking methods and processing abilities, and it is also Zhao Mai's current shortcoming.
But this shortcoming seems difficult to make up for. Zhao Mai values his brain very much. He has set up layers of protection to prevent it from being harmed. He does not want, dare or want to do anything to it. Besides, even if you can move your hands and feet, how can you move them? This is not a simple change to strengthen the leg muscles in order to jump higher. The brain is so complex that Zhao Mai has no clue how to evolve.
He thought about it and didn't have a good idea. Of course, he also thought about allowing the Z-worm to gain independent thinking ability, but the Z-worm's thinking ability will not exceed Zhao Mai, otherwise there will be a danger of overestimating the guest. Even if they have the same intelligence, the possibility of making the same mistake and causing Zhao Mai's multiple personalities is very high. This approach seems unreliable.
Since the brain cannot solve it for the time being, use the physical quantity to make up for it. Zhao Mai is worried about the safety of his friends, so he should use stupid methods to give them enough bodyguards. It's time to put the Z-worms into battle mode, just learning how to build isn't enough! The Z-worm has collected the DNA of many creatures on earth, as well as some information about the giant beasts on Skull Island, but in the same natural force environment, the truly powerful monsters are actually in Golarion.
Zhao Mai checked himself and saw that there had been no explosion for several hours. The blue light had become very faint, his hair and eyebrows were no longer shiny, and the color had gradually faded, now between blue and gold. When it turns golden, it will almost return to its normal state. Unfortunately, I will never be able to be my true self again.
I guess my parents will be very disappointed when they hear this news. But maybe they will also be glad that they gave birth to a pair of twins... Zhao Mai was very happy to find that even if he became a god, he still cared about family affairs. This shows that he is still normal and has not been affected by divine power and priesthood. assimilation.
After all, we need to reflect on ourselves all the time. Zhao Mai didn't want to try to sleep anymore and decided to use phantom to go to the mangrove. He wanted to see the progress of the ghost ship and the gathering of the beasts. At this moment, the call for food reserves came from outside.
