Chapter 534: The Reverse-Species Alien Attacks

The two walked around Planet K, and the bugs on Planet K were all dead. They were simply like gods of death; wherever they walked, everything died.

The Engineer kept throwing viruses down. Almost every virus would eradicate a type of Zerg. For example, the first one to eat the virus was the Flying Dragon, so the entire Flying Dragon group perished; if the one that ate it was a warrior, then the warrior group would soon perish. Except for the evolved creatures that could get rid of it, others couldn't.

"It looks like his virus is specifically targeted at a certain type." Ye Nan thought to himself. The Engineer's virus was different from the T-virus. The T-virus not only eradicated humans but also eradicated other creatures and even destroyed the environment. While the Engineer's virus was specifically targeted at a certain type of Zerg, and for other bugs and the environment, there was no great destruction.

The Engineer's virus was much more controllable than the T-virus.

"These damn bugs." The Engineer looked at the image scanned out and became angry.

Hearing this, Ye Nan woke up from his contemplation and saw many bugs emerging on the holographic projection, and his brow furrowed.

Just now they walked around, and it was determined that the bugs on Planet K had been eradicated. So where did these bugs come from?

He certainly wouldn't suspect that the holographic projection was wrong. He suspected that these bugs had unique hiding means that could deceive the technology of the Prometheus race, and this means made Ye Nan feel a bit tricky.

Judging from the data, the Prometheus race was not good at mechanical technology. They focused more on the fields of viruses and biology. But not being good at it didn't mean they were weak. As a high-level civilization, the Prometheus race must exceed the current Human Federation in the mechanical field.

And after the Engineer showed a hand of space technology, Ye Nan was even more certain of the Prometheus race's attainments in mechanical technology.

But even they had no way to find the hidden Zerg. This made Ye Nan very wary.

"It looks like you're right. These bugs repeat over and over again, which is indeed troublesome." The Engineer said. Since he had already recognized Ye Nan's excuse that bugs appeared repeatedly, he naturally used this excuse as a shield to cover up his own mistakes.

"Sounds good." Ye Nan thought to himself. He didn't know that the Engineer said these words to cover up his own powerlessness. However, he also wanted to see the strength of the Prometheus race and peek at their technology, so he didn't take action. Instead, he watched him quietly and observed his actions.

"However, these bugs are just low-level Zerg. I can eradicate them soon." The Engineer said disdainfully.

An excuse was one thing, and eradicating or not was another. If he went back in such a dejected way, even if he had a suitable excuse, it wouldn't change the fact of his failure. Unless he could eradicate all the Zerg on Planet K. Only in this way could he prove his bravery.

"Ye Nan, it looks like I have to let you see the technology of our 'Heaven' star." A mysterious smile flashed on the Engineer's face. The spaceship orbiting outside the planet suddenly moved forward and flew into the interior of the planet.

Seeming to feel the intruder, a mysterious force agitated on the planet, and one Zerg after another began to evolve.

"Here, actually gave birth to the Source of Evolution?" A hint of surprise flashed in the Engineer's eyes. The Source of Evolution was the name given by the Pan-Galactic Alliance to that mysterious power that could make the Zerg evolve rapidly because this mysterious power had no other function besides being able to make the Zerg evolve. So high-level civilizations within the Pan-Galactic Alliance called this power the Source of Evolution.

"The Source of Evolution is a very rare type of energy in the universe, containing the secrets of the Zerg. Several high-level civilizations have put up high prices to acquire this power for research. However, because the quantity is too rare, no results have been researched until now."

"It's just how this Source of Evolution appeared here." The Engineer pondered in his heart, wanting to come up with a general idea. His gaze just happened to fall on a bug that was evolving, watching that bug unfold its newly acquired meat wings and fly in the air.

"That's it." The Engineer slapped his thigh and shouted, "The Source of Evolution is for bugs to evolve, and the merger of the Space-Time Empire and the Human Federation has enhanced the strength of the Human Federation, so the Zerg Master descended the Source of Evolution to improve the level of the bugs in this region to attack the Human Federation."

Thinking through all this, the Engineer danced with joy like a baby. This was the Source of Evolution, an exceptionally rare Source of Evolution in the universe. As long as he got it, he could sell it for a good price and then exchange it for technology data.

Don't think that high-level civilizations don't need technology data. Even the core civilizations of the Pan-Galactic Alliance need to buy technology data, not only buying from their opponents but also buying from some civilizations lower than themselves. Because the development direction of civilization is not exactly the same, just like there can never be two exactly identical leaves in the world, civilization is also like this.

A civilization that has an advantage in the mechanical field may only be a novice in the biochemical and viral fields. Even in the mechanical technology field he is best at, it is not necessarily the strongest. Special alloys, intelligent brains, etc., these things, they are not necessarily stronger than low-level civilizations. It is just that as a whole, they are stronger than low-level civilizations.

"Source of Evolution?" Ye Nan looked at the Engineer in confusion and soon heard some news from the Engineer's mouth.

"From the Engineer's words, it can be seen that the Source of Evolution is used to improve the level of bugs. So the power permeating the sky of this planet should be the Source of Evolution."

Ye Nan kept analyzing the Engineer's actions. The Engineer's excited performance became evidence in his eyes that the Source of Evolution had value.

"These Sources of Evolution should have great value for high-level civilizations. So collecting these Sources of Evolution and selling them for a good price is also not bad."

Thinking this, Ye Nan's spiritual power extended out. Thanks to the Engineer keeping the spaceship in the interior of the planet, he had a stable environment to exert his spiritual power.

The formless spiritual power was like a giant net, netting a city-sized Source of Evolution, and then pulling it hard. But those Sources of Evolution were like flowing water, flowing out from the mesh of Ye Nan's net.

"It seems I have to narrow the range." Seeing that his move didn't succeed, Ye Nan immediately sighed. He originally intended to net as many of these Sources of Evolution as possible in the form of a net. But the result failed, so he had to honestly fill all the mesh, forming a sphere, netting all the Sources of Evolution.

A sphere only about one-third the size of the giant net just now wrapped all the Sources of Evolution in the sky and then flew back into Ye Nan's body to be stored. At the same time, a feeling of explosion kept spreading in his body, making him have to use all his spiritual power to suppress this energy.

"This alone consumed nine layers of my spiritual power. Before finding a place to put these Sources of Evolution, spiritual power cannot act." Ye Nan sighed and carefully observed these Sources of Evolution.

Compared with the Source of Evolution seen just now, these compressed Sources of Evolution appeared a bit thin. Ye Nan guessed it was because the bugs had absorbed them.

Invading the Source of Evolution with spiritual power, there was no special reaction. These Sources of Evolution were like a fixed candy, stubborn and unchanging.

"These damn bugs." The Engineer also noticed the change in the Source of Evolution in the sky. However, he didn't know the existence of spiritual power and only thought that the bugs had absorbed the Source of Evolution. In fact, the bugs were also puzzled. Where did their power go?

"These damn bugs, prepare to die."

The Engineer reached out and grabbed a pale egg. This egg was about the size of five chicken eggs. On the surface, there was no special abnormality.

"You bugs that dare to swallow my Source of Evolution, I want you to try my power." After speaking, the Engineer felt heartache again. It turned out that while he was just speaking, these bugs had absorbed quite a bit of the Source of Evolution. These were his treasures. Now that these bugs had absorbed them, how could he not feel heartache?

Throwing the egg out, the Engineer stared at the bugs—no, to be precise, he should be staring at the Source of Evolution above the bugs. Every time the bugs absorbed a little Source of Evolution, the Engineer would feel heartache. He felt that these bugs were sucking his flesh and drinking his blood.

"Damn it, stop it quickly." The Engineer cursed at the bugs. Besides selling, the Source of Evolution was also a very good research material for the Prometheus race. Last time, they used the strength of the entire race to buy the Source of Evolution for a city's worth of bugs to evolve for research. Although it was less than the original, it was equivalent to the technology achievements of their "Heaven" star's development for three hundred years.

The pale egg flew out and landed on the ground. Soon, an Alien in the shape of a young girl broke out of the eggshell. After breaking out of the eggshell, this Alien girl ate the eggshell, and soon, her body grew to the size of a normal person.

"Reverse-Species Alien?" Ye Nan was stunned to see this scene. His daughter, Ripley, was a Reverse-Species Alien, and also a Reverse-Species Alien carrying Queen genes. All along, he thought the Reverse-Species Alien was unique because the Reverse-Species Alien was a product of coincidence. But now it seemed it wasn't. The Prometheus race had already manufactured Reverse-Species Aliens long ago.

"But come to think of it, if the alien's genes didn't inherently contain the Hybrid Alien, she wouldn't have been born. So, it turns out this wasn't a coincidence, but had a precedent long ago," Ye Nan muttered, examining the Hybrid Alien with great interest.

This Reverse-Species Alien was different from Ripley. Her whole body emitted a blue light, the same color as the Prometheus race. At the same time, her eyes carried obedience and cruelty.

Obedience was aimed at the Prometheus race, and cruelty was aimed at the enemies of the Prometheus race. Two completely different emotions flickered in her eyes, but overall, obedience suppressed cruelty.

"Interesting. I wonder if this Hybrid Alien, when stimulated, would resist the Engineer." Ye Nan examined the alien with great interest; he understood well that the alien's genes harbored cruelty, and even if tamed, it would still turn on its master.

"Engineer, Engineer, be careful, don't be killed by the Alien." Ye Nan, with a mood of watching a good show, injected his spiritual power into the heart of the Reverse-Species Alien, guiding her most primitive cruelty in her heart.

"Even if you are killed by the Alien, it doesn't matter. It just happens to give me an opportunity. Anyway, you have already reported everything here."

Gradually, the cruelty in the eyes of the Reverse-Species Alien occupied the entire pupil, and the emotion of obedience only occupied a pitiful corner. He believed that after a hearty slaughter, the so-called obedience would disappear completely.

The Engineer, who didn't know all this, gave the order when the Reverse-Species Alien came out, "Kill all those damn Zerg."

The Reverse-Species Alien, having received the order, jumped out frantically, pounced on the back of a warrior that was evolving, and sharp claws tore its armor, tearing its flesh and blood into the sky.

After tearing, the Reverse-Species Alien's emotion of obedience disappeared completely, replaced by a bloodthirsty emotion.

Other bugs reacted and launched an attack on the Reverse-Species Alien one after another. Even the Flying Dragons flying toward the spaceship changed direction. Obviously, in their limited wisdom, the Reverse-Species Alien was much more dangerous than the spaceship.

The Flying Dragons stopped at a certain distance from the Reverse-Species Alien, and a small missile was sprayed out of the Flying Dragon's mouth, flying over at a very fast speed.

The Reverse-Species Alien, who was slaughtering frantically, sensed the missile flying from behind and jumped fiercely, avoiding the missile.

Seeing that their attack had no effect, the Flying Dragons were also angry. They sprayed one after another in their mouths, spraying out at a speed of one every thirty seconds. Not only that one, but other Flying Dragons also joined in, spitting saliva at the Reverse-Species Alien. Soon, a missile group was formed.

The Reverse-Species Alien faced the missile group without fear, its body jumping continuously, doing all kinds of high-difficulty work in the air, avoiding the missile group.

Hundreds of missiles, and not a single one hit the Reverse-Species Alien.

Hiss!

The Reverse-Species Alien roared to the sky, its body soared into the air, and pounced toward the Flying Dragon group.

As soon as it rushed into the Flying Dragon group, the Reverse-Species Alien began to slaughter. Sharp claws and ferocious teeth fell on the Flying Dragons one after another. The Flying Dragons' fragile skin flew in blood and flesh under the Reverse-Species Alien's attack. After a while, the Flying Dragon group was killed seven or eight out of ten. The terror of the Reverse-Species Alien was evident.

"Damn Prometheus race, I spared your life last time, I didn't expect you to dare to come here." (To be continued.) ===== CHAPTER 535 =====
