Chapter 493
The characteristics of zworms are high adaptability, but in essence they are actually "no matter how hard they are, they will never die" and "try to change to try all possibilities". Zhao Mai has always had a thought, the so-called evolution is "as long as you can survive, you are not afraid of making mistakes, constantly learn and change to survive better", and thus created zworms.
The zworm can adapt to the surrounding environment itself, but that is only passive. Zhao Mai can also take the initiative to let it learn from those evolutionary winners and learn from the strengths and weaknesses. However, the span of evolution from the creatures in the planet to the creatures of the universe is too large, so Zhao Mai must personally guide and make decisions.
Concentrate all natural force and psychic superpowers to help Z-worm introduce the energy supply organs of spacecraft organisms into its cells, combine with its existing mitochondria and chlorophyll, and form a new energy supply source. The "engine" that can provide energy for spacecraft-level organisms is installed on a creature that can only move, causing its cells to be unable to withstand this huge energy and collapse in batches. Z-worm twitched and screamed, arching around Zhao Mai's palm, indicating that it was very injured.
"It's okay, it's okay, I will take care of and treat you." Zhao Mai patiently checked the burned remains, and found some scattered cells that survived and did not burned, so he helped them divide, proliferate, and make up for the previous body loss.
Then there is the second round of fusion, the third round, the fourth round... The continuous cycle and advancement are like a big wave washing away the sand, washing away the impurities, leaving behind the most essential part. Zhao Mai empathizes with the pain again and again, and makes him happy. This is a process that life must go through.
Fortunately, the Z worm was designed for this situation, enduring pain and surviving, and then radiating brilliant light. After half a day, iterating countless times, the Z worm finally learned to fuse the cells of the spacecraft organism and use it as part of its own cell symbiosis. At the same time, the Z worm's cells also transformed the energy organisms of the spacecraft organisms, allowing it to form an organic whole with mitochondria, chlorophyll, etc. At this point, the rest is how to replace the whole body and prepare for Zhao Mai's evolution.
It took a little rest and started a major renewal of cells in the body under Zhao Mai's command. The z worm spit out white silk from its mouth, wrapped itself in it, waiting to become hardened, soaking its secretory tissue fluid, and then it began to change from both inside and outside the body. Zhao Mai grabbed the worm cocoon in his hand, continuously providing it with natural force and consuming its own energy to supply it.
"Half the success." Continuously providing natural force made him feel hungry, and at this time he had to continue eating. Zhao Mai left the bridge and came to an unmanned corner to start eating the wreckage of the ghost spacecraft. The bitter and sour taste filled his mouth. He needed high-calorie food, not this material similar to "building". Even if he had improved his ability to digest food, the energy conversion rate was too low and he could only keep stuffing things into his mouth to eat. This process would definitely be a torture after a long time.
The sound of chewing made me feel cold in my heart. Although Zhao Mai tried his best to suppress it, it was still captured by Diana's keen hearing. "Your face is so bad, you have already started to turn blue. What are you busy with in front?" Diana looked at him very worriedly. In her impression, Zhao Mai always seemed to like to mess with himself, and this time was the best.
"I was thinking about how to generate enough energy to drive magic and psychic powers. Without these two, I would not be able to repair the spaceship." Zhao Mai filled his stomach and finally felt better. He explained to Diana: "Specifically, I am imitating this ghost spaceship and learning how it generates energy. When the cocoon breaks, I will be half done, and the remaining half is to transform myself."
"What are you going to do, transform yourself, is this safe?" Diana's face was filled with a very worried look: "What will you turn yourself into? A spaceship?"
"Haha, you have a lot of imagination, but you guessed it wrong." Zhao Mai said to Diana: "It's definitely not a spaceship, but what changes will happen? I have to see the changes of the Z worm after the cocoon breaks out. Logically speaking, I just added a symbiotic stable organ to the cells, so there shouldn't be much change..."
"You are not sure of yourself? Then are you going to test it on yourself?" Diana grabbed Zhao Mai's shoulder with both hands and stared at his eyes and said, "Mac, I'm very worried about your state now. Although you can change into various creatures, you can't disrespect life. God created you and shaped you into what you are now, and you don't change it. You are not God, and such behavior exceeds your ability."
"Thank you, I know the risks, so I made such a thing." Zhao Mai spread his palms and showed her the z-worms that were wriggling in the worm cocoon. Diana narrowed her eyes and could see that the z-worms inside had almost melted, leaving only the core of the squirming, like a snake corroded by acid. "This... do you want to become like this? Turn into a pool of meat paste?"
"It's possible." Zhao Mai shrugged: "I need a lot of nutrients for emergencies. So I might have to have a big meal, and it's a real big meal. You have to help me find enough food from outside."
"You...you still want to eat corpses?" Diana's face was filled with shock, "No, you can't do that. You are a civilized person and can't do such a savage thing! And eating corpses and transforming yourself is an evil path!"
"It's not that serious. I just eat meat from dead things, neither eating live nor rotten. Although I have experienced a few vomiting before, I have prepared the bacteria that can digest those foods through Z-worms. If it weren't for the shortage of energy, I would have wanted to cook it before eating it. I just have a wide range of recipes, not perverts, and not evil, right?"
Diana frowned. Although she could not find a reason to argue about Zhao Mai's words, she always felt that this was wrong. She was already ready to eat a space warship. Is that still a human being?
She suspected that Zhao Mai's thoughts were related to his ability to transform into a dead creature. In the eyes of the dead, life is nothing more than the blood and flesh of activity, and that's all, and there is no difference. But normal living creatures would not think like this, and would not classify everything into "eating" and "uneating". Diana was taught since childhood that as a demigod, she should "love humans", but Zhao Mai continued like this and began to gradually leave the scope of humans.
"I don't support you in doing this, I won't help you." Diana finally shook her head: "If I didn't like you and retain the last trust in you, I would definitely stop you from doing this. I'm not sure if you're crazy or too smart now, I'll stare at you."
Zhao Mai was a little disappointed, but he nodded: "Okay, I respect your ideas. Although it is a bit troublesome to do it yourself, it is not impossible."
"Then what were you going to ask me to do at the beginning?"
"I can only fly with my wings in the air environment and cannot enter space. You seem to be flying that ignores gravity. I want you to help me drag some food back into the universe." Zhao Mai scratched his ears: "Without your help, I can only rely on my spiritual power to jump back and forth in the pile of wreckage. If I accidentally fall into an environment with no support around, I will turn into space garbage."
"Ah!" Diana pursed her lips and slowly vented her breath from her nostrils, and finally said, "Okay, if you solve the problem of my need to breathe, I will help you pick up the trash. But!" She said with a very firm tone: "If you eat all the messes, don't let me see it."
"I thought you would say you wouldn't kiss you after eating."
"Yes, I have to add this one!"
