Vagrant's Interstellar Journey

Chapter 47 Toxins
According to human's understanding of Zerg's living habits for thousands of years, although these Zergs are hateful, they are only aimed at humans.

For example, they will attack humans, and they will use humans as food and even carriers to reproduce the next generation, but they have never caused any threat to the environment on which their own species depends.Humans, Zergs, beasts and alien plants have always been in a wonderful balance.

But now, Ye Ji looked at the dead branches and fallen leaves all over the ground, and doubted whether the information that humans had mastered for thousands of years was accurate.Or is it true that the Zerg has become so temperamental?
"How could this be..." Obviously Xiaofeng was also very surprised.For the master's expedition this time, it downloaded all the information about the Zerg, but there has never been a record of the Zerg's ability to absorb plant essence.

"It seems that this is closely related to this abnormal attack of the Zerg."

Ye Ji stood on the edge of the withered yellow area, reaching out to touch the withered and yellow leaves on the ground, but Xiaofeng stopped him.

"Master, be careful and let me take a look first."

Ye Ji withdrew his arms and stood aside holding Xiao Dai, "Well, has the image just now been sent to them?"

Xiaofeng deformed his left arm, took out test tubes and collection dishes to conduct various experiments, and started recording data again, keeping his hands busy.

"It has been transmitted, but the signal is not very good. It is estimated that we will not be able to receive it any further. The marshal suggested that we withdraw immediately. The information we have is already very meaningful. Master, we really have to go forward ?"

"Ah."

Ye Ji looked around, it had been several days since they entered the forest.Although with his ability, he didn't pay much attention to these animal alien plants, but he didn't expect that this little idiot was actually a natural shield, which was much more convenient, and the speed was much faster than he expected.

And looking at her happy look, people who didn't know it thought this was her home.

The little idiot has been busy communicating with the animals these two days. Thanks to her, he knows a lot of secrets in the forest.It is becoming more and more suspicious of the purpose of these Zerg.

Ye Ji felt that these hateful bugs must have some big conspiracy.If we can prevent them with purpose before they are ready to launch large-scale actions, then humans may be able to change from passive to active, and even wipe them out in one fell swoop.

I just don’t know if other planets have the same phenomenon.If this is the case, then we must contact people on other planets as soon as possible, but how to confirm it.

Ye Ji frowned, thinking about more and more serious problems.

Xiao Dai was very happy that she could help the uncle, but the uncle's face became more and more ugly.Xiao Dai, who thought he had done something wrong, lay obediently in his arms, stretched out his small hand to touch Ye Ji's forehead, and slowly smoothed the word Chuan.

The more Ye Ji thought about it, the more he thought about it. Why were these dead bugs so annoying?Suddenly I felt a cool and soft touch on my forehead, and I immediately felt a lot more relaxed.

Facing Xiaodai's self-reproaching gaze, Ye Ji smiled, "Thanks to our princess, your highness, for saving the entire human race."

Save humanity?her?Xiaodai scratched her head in embarrassment, but she didn't do anything.

"Master, it has been detected." Xiao Feng finally finished his work and put away the various instruments again, leaving only one sample. "After these plants were attached by the Zerg, they began to absorb their own essence, and at the same time they were Injecting a liquid with an effect similar to anesthesia, the plant itself will not feel it, it will just slowly age and die."

Xiaofeng's tone couldn't help being a little sentimental. Although these alien plants had intended to attack it and its owner, they were the ones who broke into other people's territory first without authorization.

And after all, they have lived for tens of hundreds of years. They could have continued to live here and reproduce here without any worries, but now they have been taken away without knowing it. Even robots also feel the sadness of things changing and people changing.

"How toxic."

"No known Zerg venom has been found, and some residual branches also contain a small amount of toxins contained in the xenoplant itself, but the small amount is basically harmless to the human body."

Is this good news?

"You mean that the Zerg race is also absorbing the toxins from other plants?" Ye Ji suddenly asked as if he had thought of something.

Xiao Feng was startled for a moment, and then turned pale with shock, "This, this, the result of the test is indeed that the toxin originally contained in the plant has been greatly reduced, but whether it is really absorbed by the Zerg, we still need to investigate the poison of the Zerg. conduct experiment."

If it is really absorbed by the Zerg, whether the original non-toxic Zerg will mutate, and whether the Zerg with their own venom will evolve toxicity that humans cannot be immune to, all these things have to be recalculated and considered.

No one knows how toxic the alien plants in this forest are, and what will happen after the two blend together is even more unpredictable.

Is humanity really going to perish?Ye Ji looked at the devastation and felt the heavy responsibility on himself for the first time.

"If you want to conduct an experiment on the Zerg, you must catch a bug." Xiaofeng said weakly, this is the minimum requirement.

Ye Ji nodded.But where have all the bugs gone?It was as if locusts had crossed the territory before my eyes, leaving only the withered yellow everywhere, not a single one could move.After the worms absorbed it, all of them left.

And they lost their target.

Xiaofeng turned on the detection device to find the whereabouts of the Zerg, but failed. "Master, there are so many beasts and alien plants that I can't tell them apart." He lowered his head and was very depressed. Since he entered the forest, he felt that he was a majestic 3S smart mech and cub nanny robot. It was very useless, little baby now I can't use it anymore.

But now is not the time to be sad. Xiaofeng raised his head again. He is proud to take care of such an excellent cub. Moreover, it has the configuration of a scientific robot. Didn’t you see that the test report just now was completed by it alone? , its role is also great.

Ye Ji also looked at Xiaodai and raised his eyebrows, "Come on baby, it's time for you to play a role."

Xiaodai pursed his lips and smiled, and listened quietly for a while before pointing his finger forward to the right. "Little Bird said, there is something abnormal over there, Hua Hua."

Ye Ji raised his foot and walked over there, "Why is it abnormal?"

Xiaodai racked his brains to figure out how to describe it, "That's right, ugly."

ugly?Ye Ji sneered, there was something abnormal about this.There are all kinds of strange plants in this world. Since there are beautiful ones, there must be ugly ones. What’s more, beauty and ugliness are just what humans think of themselves. In fact, sometimes according to the genetic arrangement, the beautiful ones are not necessarily better than those. Ugly comes high class.

But Xiaodai kept insisting that it was absolutely abnormal, and Ye Ji didn't say anything.

Although the descriptions of those little birds are very strange, it proves that there is indeed something unusual in this forest.Along the way, Xiaodai's diverse sources of information helped them a lot.

Ye Ji didn't expect that he just wanted to be willful and didn't want to be separated from her at the beginning, but now he has become a human navigation baby, but the process made him a little speechless.
