Chapter 2723: The life of Houyi (2/2)
Li Yao gained unprecedented understanding, and he understood the mission of this expedition.
They want to thrive on this brand new planet and breed millions of times the same race. Only when the number of beetles reaches the limit and exceeds the threshold, can they construct complex structural maps such as battleships, tall buildings, and biochemical ultrabrains. Qualifications are called ”civilization” before they can send a message back to the home planet announcing the ”victory” of this expedition.
Li Yao broke out of the ground, with thousands of people.
He even couldn't tell whether he was this little beetle or the condensate of pheromone exchange among countless beetles nearby.
The poisonous air and the intense sunlight did not make him feel uncomfortable at all. During the long underground growth process, his genes had already been adjusted to suit the environment of this planet-the Houyi tribe conquered many similar ones. This planet is not the worst in the environment. Some of their gene pools are weapons to deal with difficult situations.
Even so, there are still countless tribesmen who died in the instant they broke ground.
To die from poisoning, to die from sun exposure, to die from low temperature, to die from hunger, to die from all kinds of weird or ordinary reasons-death does not require a cause, but survival is necessary.
Li Yao didn't hesitate at all. At this time, his instinct was still far above the ability to think. He wriggled his chubby body, awkwardly waving immature tentacles, and devouring the bodies of these dead companions.
This is a very critical moment. The entire wilderness is submerged by the black tide. The black tide makes a ”click, click, click” sound. Countless beetles are devouring the dead body, enhancing their own nutrients, and resisting the scorching sun and the wind. And the heavy rain, struggling to fight for the slim line of life.
In the wind and sun, Li Yao went through several times of shelling, and his body became larger and more beautiful.
He has grown a pair of sharp and tough big claws, enough to finish the rocks on this planet; his carapace has become more oily and shiny, covered with colorful patterns, which can reflect light of different wavelengths. It became mysterious and complicated information; there were several pairs of feet growing out of his abdomen, and there were two rows of parallel holes on his chest-these organs also had their own mysteries, but he didn't know it yet.
Suddenly, like a flash of lightning flashing across his hazy sea of consciousness, he and the tens of thousands of people around him all awakened-the season of aggregation has arrived!
Li Yao's carapace released a colorful light, and sent the patterns imprinted on him to all directions, looking for a tribe who was suitable for him.
And all his people did this one after another, as if they were looking for him thousands of times.
Soon, the two shining patterns condensed in mid-air, and Li Yao struggled to climb towards a tribe member, who also tried his best to respond to his call.
Li Yao tightly fixed the ring groove around the opponent's waist with his abdomen, and the other party also inserted the tentacles of the head into the hole in Li Yao's chest, perfectly fitting and seamless.
In an instant, Li Yao felt the tremor from the depths of genes. He felt that he had become more ”complete”. He shared the knowledge of the sea with the other party, and all the gene banks that could not be opened were opened. More information was like a surging tide. Like pouring out.
Not satisfied, they—he was still not satisfied, and still used the pattern on the carapace to attract more beetles to join this... ”small group”, and then twelve beetles accepted his invitation and became a part of him, some Beetles act as crawling parts, some beetles act as fighting and finishing parts, and some beetles act as digestion and energy storage parts. He instantly completes the leap from a low-level animal to a high-level animal, turning into a tyrannical creature like a cancer.
And he is not the biggest winner in this gathering season. Many beetles have successfully gathered hundreds and thousands of companions to form a ”big group”, and they have shaped themselves into various shapes and bizarre images, free from any rules. The limit is just to try what kind of form is most suitable for survival on this planet.
The survival test process is cruel.
Countless successful forms in the past have proved to be unsuitable for the environment of this planet. Those seemingly fierce and fierce “hordes” collapsed one after another, most of the beetles died, and the remaining beetles joined with the lessons of failure. ”Small groups” such as Li Yao.
However, there are also a small number of condensed forms that have proven to be quite successful, and the ”large groups” that make up these forms will also split in an orderly manner, bringing new successful forms to more ”small groups”.
Even Li Yao died twice.
He is also not sure whether he should use ”death” to describe his collapse. In short, the form he finally condensed proved to be unsuitable for the survival of this planet and the finishing operations of the rock formations. 90% of the beetles that make up his body All died, but the remaining 10% of the beetles joined the new team with the most critical genetic information and blended in perfectly.
Perhaps, death is really a meaningless concept for individuals of bee colony civilization. If civilization is not destroyed, they can gain eternal life.
