Chapter 7 Internal

In Lin's field of vision, there are bright red particles everywhere, and they are mixed with blue debris to form a unique landscape.

This is what Lin's troops who stayed in the Buckler worm saw. Everything here became pieces of floating debris. The blue cells that formed the esophagus, ducts, or other organs in the Buckler worm were invaded by viruses, and then from The core to the outer membrane was completely destroyed by the virus, because the immune cells were blocked by Lin, resulting in the unlimited growth of the virus. It is estimated that there are only a bunch of cell fragments left in the body of the Buckler worm.

Lin's remaining troops slowly swam in the environment where the corpses of cells and viruses were floating. Almost every one of them was dyed bright red by the virus. Looking at the tragic situation here, many thoughts appeared in Lin's mind. idea.

Fear, anxiety, doubt, but no joy of victory.

What exactly is a virus?

According to what Lin knows now, viruses are strange creatures. They do not divide or eat. They just drift along with the current. If they touch a cell, they burrow into the outer membrane and use the cell for their own benefit. Divide to proliferate and subsequently destroy the entire cell.

And just like that, making more viruses, infecting more cells...

Is their purpose to kill all cells? Viruses don't limit themselves, they just grow in numbers and destroy everything.

When all the cells that can kill have been killed, they will also die due to lack of food, and only a few viruses will survive, and then drift further down the water to infect other cells.

The same is true of these bright red viruses, which are killing the worm's cell explosion, but this also causes most viruses to not find cells to infect, and as long as they don't infect cells for a period of time, they will die.

Kill all that can be killed, and then wait to die. Is this the so-called virus? What is the meaning of their existence?

However, one feature of these bright red viruses is that they can be carried on Lin's cells without destroying it. Lin still doesn't know why.

Lin suddenly discovered that it didn't know what the meaning of its existence was, was it constantly evolving?

This seems like a question worth thinking about, but Lin still doesn't feel like that kind of free time has come yet.

Lin's aircraft carrier was in the process of being repaired, and the cells in the wound torn by the Buckler worm began to divide. At the same time, Lin gathered the cells that were left outside and did not enter the mouth of the Buckler Worm and some large devourers, and swam towards the worm. The corpse of the Buckler Worm, Lin intends to study and eat this monster that has caused huge losses to herself.

The corpse of the Buckler Worm was lying on the ice not far from the aircraft carrier. Fortunately, the ice had not melted, otherwise its corpse might attract other cells.

Lin first asked the devourers to bite open the joints on the arthropods of the round shield worm, and it wanted to try to see if they could break off the entire arthropods.

Following that, Lin let 100,000 cells form an exploration team and swim into the mouth of the Buckler Worm. The original esophagus here is gone, and all that is left is the cellular debris floating around.

The expedition team that entered soon merged with the group of troops that were almost all dyed red, and their number was only tens of thousands.

Although it feels a bit wasteful, Lin still has to deal with them, lest any strange situation will happen to the virus in these cells. Lin will never let more than ten infected people.

After all, the virus is too terrifying, and it is also a kind of thing that is harmful to the enemy. After they destroyed all the cells in the Buckler worm, Lin could hardly find any food available.

Maybe it shouldn't be attacked with a virus? But this can only drive away the Buckler worm at best, and it is impossible to kill it, but is it worthwhile or worthwhile? Only by exploring the whole worm will you know.

Lin first let the troops explore the place that was originally the esophagus for a while. It was very spacious. Lin thought it should be in the 'round shield' on the head of the round shield worm.

The light source of the flash ball cannot reach far enough to illuminate the entire space.

There are only cell debris and viruses around. These viruses are all dead. Although they can't be seen from the outside, even if Lin makes the cells stick to them, they won't get in.

Lin's expedition team continued to move further. It tried to find out if there was anything that was not destroyed by the virus. If the cells in the Buckler Worm were completely destroyed by the virus, then the battle would be really good. It's not worth playing.

what is that?

Lin suddenly saw a thick and long tentacle floating among the corpses of countless cells and viruses.

This tentacle is obviously also composed of cells. It seems that it was broken due to the attack of the virus, so Lin can see that the middle center is hollow and can accommodate many cells.

By the way, this tentacle is actually a channel for cells to pass through, and it was also seen in the joint wound of the round shield worm before.

I don't know why this pipeline as a whole is not destroyed by the virus? Is it just broken?

Lin asked a devourer to swim to the fracture of the pipe to look inside, and found that there were still many blue cells inside, but they all seemed to be dead and lay motionless on the wall of the pipe, only occasionally saw one or two shaking. a bit.

No matter how they survived the virus attack, it means Lynn still has trophies.

Lin let some small phagocytic cells and basal cells stay behind. The phagocytic cells enter the pipeline to devour blue cells, and the basal cells directly form a small circular structure here, mainly for decomposing and digesting food.

Following this, Lin's remaining team moved deeper into the Buckler Worm's body along the pipe. It seemed that the deeper they went, the more things they would encounter that were not destroyed by the virus.

In the process of going deeper, Lin found another pipeline. These pipelines were also broken, and the inside of it was also full of blue cells.

Lin also left some cells here and continued to go deeper, and soon, it met more pipes.

The third root, the fourth root... The deeper you go, Lin finds that there are more pipes. These pipes are crisscrossed in this space. They have different thicknesses. Bifurcations, and the more bifurcations, the thinner the pipeline.

Although these pipes are somewhat different, they all have one thing in common, that is, the thickest parts all extend to the same wing.

And if a pipe is torn open, a large number of blue cell corpses will flow out, and it seems that they are all dead, but this is obviously not caused by the virus.

It's really strange, how do they avoid the attack of the virus? There is no cell debris in the water here. Maybe the virus didn't spread here at all?

Maybe the virus only destroyed the cells in the head part of the Buckler worm, but if that's the case, why are the cells in this depth almost dead?

Although Lin's aircraft carrier was torn in half by the Buckler worm, the remaining half is still alive and has no effect. Is this worm dead only if some of its cells died?

Lin, who became more and more puzzled, swam deeper along these pipes, and finally, a huge object appeared in front of Lin's exploration team.

what is this?

This oval object is very large, about the same size as the pincers on the arthropod of the round shield worm. It is also composed of cells, and all the surrounding pipe ends are connected to this object, it seems that it is a major organ structure .

What is this thing for?

When Lin was thinking about it, suddenly this thing moved, it expanded rapidly, and then shrank back.

What's wrong?

Lin asked the cells to step back, but left a Devourer to stare at this thing, Lin was very curious about this thing.

However, Lin waited for a long time, but this thing didn't move anymore.

……never mind.

Eat it.
