How the Zergs were Made

Chapter 61: Self-produced

As a semi-biologist, the world of microbes is undoubtedly very attractive. Unlike the last time in the ancient universe, Huogu’s life is now no longer under threat. Under such circumstances without external pressure, Coupled with the global monitoring capability provided by the rhizome system, it is unable to extricate itself and completely immersed in the micro world.

   When it reacted, the planet had rotated more than 3,000 times, that is, more than 3,000 day and night changes on the planet.

   "It's been a long time since I was as comfortable as now..."

   Huo Gu was rather helpless to laugh at himself. Since crossing, Huo Gu has been facing the pressure of survival. Now that the pressure is gone, he can't help but let himself go.

   "Well, the planet's warming has come to an end. It's almost time to set up a contact point and get in touch with Min, otherwise it should be in a hurry..."

   Huo Gu suddenly realized that something was wrong, and now Min and his view of time should be inconsistent.

   "...A long time has passed from my point of view, but there should only be a short while later."

   "In this way, will you show up after establishing contact? In the past thousands of days, the other party only finished a sentence, and my speech speed is so fast that the other party can't understand it at all. Is this a situation?"

   Huogu fell into contemplation, and felt that this possibility was extremely high. Thinking back to the global battle that was caused by that misunderstanding, he suddenly felt that the misunderstanding happened not by accident, but by inevitable under such factors.

The situation of   暝 is quite special. Although the ice age has passed, the current environment is not the high temperature environment of the ancient period. Huogu's thinking slowdown has been restored, but Min's thinking slowdown effect still exists.

   "It seems that it is necessary to slow down again and talk to Min about this."

   "But before that, there are still things that need to be done..."

   Just now, Huo Gu, who had recovered from observing microorganisms, noticed a problem.

That is, it cannot completely separate itself from the ecosystem of this planet. It must rely on the organic material reserves of the planet itself to expand the number of individuals. If it leaves the environment of this planet and arrives at another place, such as a small On the planet, it will do nothing.

   does not seem to be marginal, but people who have no vision must have close worries, which means a kind of upper limit, as if you suddenly know that the highest level of your training can only be raised to 100.

If the maximum limit of this game is 100 or higher, the point is that the official limit of the game’s level is not stipulated at all. That is to say, as high as you want, it’s possible that someone will come in trouble at home from the sky. A horror tycoon with a level of hundreds of millions, is it dead or alive when the time comes?

   Don't say that this kind of problem is far away. Huogu is now a longevity species. It has reserved a spot for the audience watching the end of the universe.

   "You must first master the manufacturing technology of organic materials."

   Based on this idea of ​​worrying consciousness, Huo Gu entered his deep thinking and began to design.

   Sinking down, Huo Gu spread out his thoughts and knowledge thoroughly.

   "Although there are many types of organic materials, as long as the various functions, types, and structures are ignored, the basic and simple things will appear..."

   "Yes, it's you, functional group."

In    thinking, the three-dimensional view of organic molecules is split to form clusters and atoms of various sizes.

   The so-called functional groups are atoms or groups of atoms that determine the chemical properties of organic compounds.

   In fact, the knowledge about functional groups has gone beyond Huogu’s field of knowledge. Those who specialize in this substance are basically bioengineers who hide in the laboratory to study species improvement.

   There are only real objects, and Huogu also has a microscopic perspective. The structure and function of the functional group itself can be obtained by Huogu through observation.

  Hogu first selected two organic compounds as targets, namely organophosphorus compounds and organosulfur compounds.

   There is not much reason for choosing them, it is purely random selection.

   After listing them one by one, there are eleven kinds of such phosphorus-sulfur-containing functional groups. This is the information Hogu obtained after thoroughly investigating all his organic materials.

  Other other types of functional groups are four types: nitrogen-containing, oxygen-containing, halogen-containing substituents, and hydrocarbyl groups.

   The next step is the design process. A cell is presented in Huogu's thinking. This cell is very single, a nucleus, and then a mitochondria. This mitochondria can take up atoms and process them into functional groups containing phosphorus and sulfur.

   It is not difficult to design a mitochondria that combines functional groups. The functional groups are simply combined by atomic bonds. For Huogu, who has a microscopic perspective, it is equivalent to a handless snake thinking of putting two bricks together.

   However, the yield of a single mitochondria is not satisfactory to Hogu. The high speed on the micro scale is slower than the snail on the macro scale.

   Then, it almost filled this cell with mitochondria capable of processing phosphorus and sulfur functional groups.

   But this doesn't work.

Although the goal of production capacity is achieved, it complicates the transportation route after delivery ~lightnovelpub.net~ It is extremely prone to congestion events in the cell. If the transportation is restricted, the production capacity will decrease. The original purpose of a large number of mitochondria goes against the original purpose.

   "Then what should I do?"

   "We must increase mitochondria as much as possible without causing congestion..."

   "...I have it!"

   A bold idea emerged in Huo Gu's mind.

   It is designed to be a tool, not a real life body. In this way, life becomes dispensable.

   First of all, the environment is safe. This is a prerequisite, which means that the effect of cell membranes will be extremely small, and it can even be said that there is no protection at all. It is enough to ensure the internal and external osmotic pressure of the cells.

  Under this premise, Huogu can completely combine mitochondria and cell membranes to form a circle that is the organelle and the new structure of the cell membrane.

   So, a completely miniaturized processing plant appeared in front of Huogu.

  As long as there are atoms that combine functional groups in the surrounding environment, it will absorb them, and the process of being incorporated into the cell is also processing, and only processed functional groups will exist in the cell.

The functional group is then transported to another cell through the connecting tube. That cell also uses this design, using organelles as the cell membrane, but this cell processes the functional group into organic materials. After the exocytosis process is over, Hogu can also obtain organic materials. .

   A set of micro-world assembly lines was born.

   Since then, with a basic template, subsequent design has become much easier.

   Cells that process other functional groups and cells that can process functional groups into various organic materials were designed by Huo Gu.

  Hogu named this type of cell-working cell.
