How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 57: Cold-resistant

[Huo Gu, can you make this plan? Why is it still ineffective?

"Don't quarrel. I need to concentrate."

The plan went very smoothly until the sun focused on the frozen rhizomes, but after that, obstacles appeared.

They waited for a long time and never saw any sign of melting the ice.

Even though they are now in a state of slowing down, they also feel that they have been waiting for a long time.

"The temperature is still not enough. It's too far away, that star."

[So it failed, didn't it?]

"No, there is still a way..."

With that, Huo Gu focused his attention on the remains of the roots.

"Unspin, transcription, replication, gene targets, photoreceptor cells."

The viewing angle is stretched to the microscopic, and the photons from the star are transmitted to the surface of the planet. Through a refracted mirror, the direction is deflection and enter the ice crystals of the remains of the frozen rhizome.

After the refraction and deflected of countless small crystals, a few photons finally hit individual cells of the rhizome system, which brought energy to the cells.

If it is an ordinary and normal microorganism, this energy is certainly not enough for recovery, but the cells with cluster consciousness like Huo Gu are completely different.

Huo Gu can't make the energy more out of thin air, but it can make the energy collected everywhere in the rhizome debris, using the synaptic network to converge at one point and stimulate a single cell to wake up from hibernation.

This awakening is short-lived, but it is enough. Huo Gu calculated the time point and gave schizophretion instructions to the resuscitated cells.

New cells are born in the rhizomes in the transparent ice crystals.

This cell is all black. Whether it is light absorption or heat absorption, the effect is very good, which can more or less provide some bonus for the absorption of sunlight.

This cell is a photoreceptor cell, but it is slightly different from the photoreceptor cell that provides vision as a visual system. It has strong cold resistance.

The cell membrane has cold shock protein, which can keep the cell membrane active in such a low temperature environment, instead of hibernation.

A large amount of hydrochloric acid is added to the cytoplasm, accounting for about 23.89% of the internal cytoplasmic solution. This mixed liquid will drop to -79.5 degrees Celsius, which is more than enough to deal with the current surface temperature of the planet.

After collecting enough energy, this kind of cold-resistant cell continues to divide new individuals according to the instructions issued by Huo Gu, multiply the number, and expand the absorption surface of light.

The material is taken from the remains of the rhizome and the ice crystal itself. As a low-temperature condensate in the sea atmosphere, the ice crystal is not as pure as it looks to the naked eye, and the interior is full of impurities and various other elements.

Using hydrochloric acid solution, the water freezing point in the ice crystal is lowered to re-dissolve it into a liquid state.

In this way, the position space of the cold-resistant cells inside the ice crystal is gradually expanded by it, and the transparent cavity is getting bigger and bigger.

After a period of time, finally, a small hole in the ice crystal was broken, and the black vine formed by a combination of black cells protruded from it.

Seeing that the time was almost the same, Huo Gu added a new type of cell to partner with cold-resistant cells.

The function of this cell is to use photons to decompose hydrochloric acid, produce heat and nutrients, and supply the current new low-temperature rhizome system.

With the combination of the two cells, icicles or ice mirrors that can focus or refract light are made, which makes the rhizome system absorb more photons.

In this way, the Great Thawing Movement is in full swing under the command of Huo Gu. It is foreseeable that soon the planet will be liberated from the ice.

Normally, the plan is going so smoothly that Huo Gu should be happy, but...

[Look...]

[Come on...]

[Wary...]

[It becomes...]

[Gong...]

What you are talking about over there,

Every byte has to wait for a long time. The sky is no longer as fast as the star changes, and the snow on the ground is no longer like a tide from the direction of the rising star to the horizon where the star falls.All this is because the effect of thinking deceleration is gradually disappearing. With the new rhizome energy cycle on the right track, Huo Gu is about to be pulled back to the normal view of time.

However, Huo Gu was not satisfied with this. After all, there was no one to talk to.

If you are exiled to a desert island, it's okay if there is no one to communicate with at the beginning, but if there is someone who can talk but can't communicate for some reason, it is undoubtedly uncomfortable.

Thinking that the communication methods on both sides will soon return to the ancient ages, Huo Gu felt that it was necessary to discuss and communicate in advance, otherwise there was likely to be some misunderstandings.

Of course, it is said to be a discussion. In fact, it is a unilateral notice. After all, it is impossible to negotiate things when Huo Gu restores the whole planet's environment when he delivers information intermittently like the other party now.

"Well, my view of time has returned to normal, and now the information sent from you has been delayed, so I want to make something clear to you before the delay is serious."

"In view of the recovery, You use thunder and lightning for information delivery. I will erect a lot of conical metal bodies towering into the clouds on the surface. You can use this as a target to emit lightning. Don't worry about whether I will accept it. The whole rhizome system is It's connected. I can receive the information from any of the splits.

"As for the special bodies made for you, I will pay attention that they will no longer be as unscrupulous as in the ancient ages. If there are alien meteorites and comets, I will also help you destroy them to ensure that the global freezing will not happen again. You can rest assured."

After thinking about it, Huo Gu continued to add.

"In addition, pay special attention not to use cyclones or create crustal changes in the area where the roots are coiled. If you do that, it will cause me a lot of trouble."

[Okay...]

[of...]

Perhaps the answer was very brief, taking into account the delay of the information.

After this exchange, Huo Gu always felt that there was something strange, not only as if he was writing his last words to himself, but also as if he was writing parting words for others at a friend's funeral.

Throwing out this strange idea, Huo Gu devoted himself to the spread of the new root system.

Climbing out of the gap cut by the wind blade, the rhizome system spreads to the raised ice field.

In the flat environment of the ice sheet, the collection of photons is really suitable.

Then, the rhizome system couldn't wait to lay the ice field under the instructions of Huo Gu.

Ice columns that can refract or reflect light stand up on the ice sheet, and the most central is the cold-resistant cells used to collect photon energy.

After a while, seeing that the necessary material collection was almost complete, Huo Gu ordered the rhizome to spread directly below.

The second step of the plan is to be implemented.
