How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 37: The Beginning of Inheritance

After the specially supplied amino acids in the water were absorbed, Huo Gu exported other types of amino acids and proteins in the water and prompted the collector to complete the two things of 'collection of organic materials' and 'absorption into the rhizome system'.

After completing these two things, the collector will get a special amino acid given by the rhizome system. Under the temptation of food, the collector will soon learn this process, even if it has not awakened the concept of 'I'.

To put it bluntly, it is the skill of taming animals in the circus, not a high-end skill.

The collectors adjust their cognition little by little under the guidance of Huo Gu, and record it in their minds as empirical knowledge, that is, as long as they put strange things on those vine-like structures, they can get delicious food.

After such a continuous free-range in the water for a period of time, the collector will understand that only the rhizome system can provide it with food, and then an equation will appear in his mind. The rhizome system is equal to the guarantee of food, and the rhizome system is destroyed, which means hunger. Driven by desire, a A concept - protection.

During the whole process, Huo Gu is paying close attention to the changes in the collector's brain. The collector's memory belongs to learning memory, which should theoretically be heritable. Huo Gu is ready to transform into heritable memory. It requires every newborn collector to know what to do, which is why it is so big. The reason for the cost of Zhouzhang.

In addition, Huo Gu also tested his control over the cells on the collector's body. As a result, there is indeed a decline in control. Although the connection still exists, it can no longer be completely dominated like a gourd, as if it is weakened by something.

As time passed, the rhizomes climbing to the bottom of the sea finally spread to the edge of the undersea cave and tangled with each other to block the undersea cave.

More than a dozen gourds were made by rhizome. Under the instructions of Huo Gu, they used the gravel on the seabed to hide the rhizome group spreading to the seabed.

Then, it adheres to the rhizome, transforms into a cocoon, and re-embraced itself.

Huo Gu directly covered the inside of the cocoon with the collector information collected during this period, so that the genes of the gourd were expressed in the form of a collector.

Before long, a collector broke out of the shell and became the first macroscopic multicellular organisms on the planet.

They have the same appearance as gourds, but they are different. They are no longer limited in the movement distance of the owner, and are no longer constrained by the life field. They can move freely and upgrade from tools to servants who work as a labor contractor.

The collectors turned their eyes and observed this new world that they had never seen before. Such a vast environment at the bottom of the sea is different from the narrow 'world' in their memory. The inconsistency between reality and memory inevitably makes them a little overwhelmed.

However, driven by hunger, they began to collect in the ocean.

At first, due to the inability to adapt to the physical ability and the marine environment, the collectors had a very hard time swimming in the sea. Compared with the stable water environment in the underground void, the water flow in the ocean can be regarded as 'turbulent'. Collectors often have accidents that can't control the speed and direction and collide with each other.

Fortunately, the nutrient-rich environment of the Hades caused the proliferation of microorganisms. Even so procrastination, it collected enough organic materials to make the collectors barely fill their stomachs.

Of course, there are also individual collectors with very little collection. They can't adapt to the turbulence environment of the seabed at all. Instead, they hit the reefs on the seabed several times, allowing Huo Gu to add a lot of organic materials to repair them.

As Huo Gu decided at the beginning, it can't lose it after using it like the ruthless slave owner. After all, it is working for it. If it doesn't even have medical assistance, it's too much to say.

The collectors who couldn't stand hunger went to the vicinity of the collectors who were eating and wanted a piece of the pie.

All the collectors did not react much to this.They are all like white paper, no public or private concept, no concept of theft, and no possessiveness, so no collector will object.

But Huo Gu can't stand by and watch this. The rules are set by it - 'The supply obtained by the collector depends on the amount of organic materials that can be collected'.

Moreover, if you let it go, will the collection here derive 'lazy people'? Specializing in robbing other collectors' food, just like the carnivores above herbivores.

With concerns, it is impossible for Huo Gu to watch these substandard collectors eat the food of other collectors. The roots drive away the collected collectors and limit their mobility.

The collector wants to break free from the restrictions of the rhizome, but the rhizome system is really indescribably thick compared to it. It is like a baby wrestling with a weightlifting champion, and the probability of winning is not higher than zero from the beginning.

"Strange... What's wrong with this strange heartache?"

Looking at the futile struggling collector, Huo Gu felt uncomfortable for no reason. It seemed that when he saw that the other party was hungry, he would be hungry.

"Feeling together? Or for some other reason?"

Huo Gu waved this feeling slightly unhappily and gathered all the collectors who failed to meet the standards.

let them reattach to the rhizome and turn into cocoon.

It is not to recycle resources, but Huo Gu intends to carry out the most skilled collector's experience memory of the current collection work, and copy and transfer it into the brains of these collectors who can't adapt to the marine environment at all.

Although Huo Gu's permissions seem to be weakened, the connection is still there. The collector is designed by it from the inside out, and it is not difficult for it to copy a memory.

If there are still people who do not meet the standards, then it will consider the option of recycling resources.

During the collection, Huo Gu did not forget to pay attention to the movement of the sea surface. If the unidentified guy appears again, it will immediately disconnect the rhizome system connected to the seabed and physically disconnect it.

Soon, the second collection activity began again. The previous group of collectors who failed to adapt to the undersea environment did not disappoint Huo Gu. They collected a lot more organic materials than other uncontaken collectors, and completed the collection of materials earlier to have a full meal.

Of course, there are exceptions. There is a situation where a collector after the cocoon fails to meet the standard, but Huo Gu does not intend to pursue it, because the guy is really unlucky. On the way to collect materials, he was stuck in an acyclic reef by a strong current that suddenly appeared in the sea. It is an accident, and more importantly, inexplicably Huo Gu, who traveled through the wonderful time, found a little resonance in the unlucky collector.

This second collection fully illustrates the advantages of Huo Gu's adjustment of empirical memory as hereditary memory. Many collectors know what they should do and how to do it better at birth.

This is a kind of ability that is completely different from the earth's creatures. The continuous accumulation of experience is like a snowball, which will roll bigger and bigger, and the end of the snowball is, even a maker like Huo Gu does not know.
