"You are the thing." Zeng was very angry and flew away with a whoosh, not wanting to be touched by the small meat pillar at all.

"She absorbed Kongli's genes, causing changes in her own genes." After a pause, Lin Tao continued, "Zhen, our human genes are very strange. Once they are integrated with the genes of space creatures, strange changes will occur. This situation is like... um, like..."

Lin Tao couldn't figure it out for a moment, and he could only hold his chin with his hand and rack his brains.

"Communism?" Zhe asked.

"No, it should be a special atavism phenomenon." Xinya said, as if she had recovered her previous memories. As a master of biochemistry, she was very familiar with biological changes.

"That special gene was integrated into my body, and it seemed to have triggered changes in the underlying genes of our human beings, causing mutations. That feeling, well, was just like a very normal phenomenon."

As Xinya spoke, the flesh on the meat pillar suddenly gurgled a few times and condensed in front of Lin Tao. In the blink of an eye, the emerging flesh became hard, like a piece of shell.

"Kongli shell?" Lin Tao recognized the appearance of the shell at a glance.

"It's the shell of a Kongli." The fierce metal sphere said the same thing after emitting a beam of light to scan and confirm.

If you integrate Kongli's genes, you will change into Kongli?

Suddenly, Lin Tao remembered some experiments in later generations. It seemed that similar situations had occurred in later generations. This was exactly why Lin Tao advised Xin Ya.

In later generations, humans tried to integrate the genes of star creatures in their bodies in order to create terrifying creatures to fight against the giant insects. However, they did not expect that once the genes of the star creatures were integrated into the body, they suddenly caused drastic changes in the experiment subjects, and they all became like monsters.

These monsters had no thoughts and could only attack madly. As a last resort, later experimenters had to eliminate them.

The reason why Lin Tao kept 'Xin Ya' at that time was because she was not hostile and seemed to retain a trace of human thinking. It was for this reason that Lin Tao planned to give it a try to see if he could restore 'Xin Ya' to her original form.

Somewhat unexpectedly, 'Xinya' not only began to regain her human form, but also her human memories.

If it is true as in Xinya's case, wouldn't those extinguished monsters have a chance to recover? But why would such a change occur after integrating the genes of the star creatures? "It should be the method of the three-eyed people." At this time, the ferocious metal ball flashed with light and suddenly said, "Your human genes are mixed. Not only do you have the genes of the humans of the Great Interstellar Federation, but you also have the gene segments of various beasts. It is very likely that the three-eyed people created you to build the strongest biological weapon, but in the end you became what you are now."

"At the beginning, the three-eyed people created the giant insect clan because they wanted to build a biological weapon. The initial reason for creating our mechanical clan was the same." Zhe said.

Is that true? Lin Tao frowned slightly.

But what lies before him now is not the time to discuss this issue, but whether "Xinya" can be completely restored to her original human form.

"Xinya, can you restore the way you remember?" Lin Tao asked.

The human-shaped flesh pillar in front of him, although it has a human appearance, has no facial features and is just a piece of skin. If someone who doesn't know the truth sees it, they will definitely be scared as if they had seen a ghost.

Hearing Lin Tao's words, 'Xinya' also began to control the flesh layer on the surface, wanting to restore it to its original appearance as Lin Tao said.

After trying for a while, Xinya stopped: "Lin Tao, I am not yet able to fully control this 'body'."

Lin Tao was startled, and Zhe was also surprised: "Can you control the entire area of ​​this 'body'?"

"Yes." Xinya said, and the fleshy layer around her suddenly made a gurgling sound and began to flow. In a moment, it gathered at Xinya's feet.

Blink.

This layer of flesh covered Xinya's body like armor.

It was a hard layer like the outer shell of a hollow gourd.

"Lin Tao, do you think I look good like this?" Xinya seemed quite satisfied with the change.

Lin Tao's brows twitched repeatedly. To be honest, if it was the real person, she would be really good-looking. As for her current appearance, he really didn't know what to say.

"It looks good, very good." Zhe's core ball flashed with light: "In your case, the strength of your body is almost ten times stronger than before."

As a mechanical race, they seem to have different aesthetics.

However, after hearing its words, Lin Tao was also stunned, and then his eyes fell on the armor on Xinya's body: "Ten times stronger than before?"

"Lin Tao, you can try to punch it and see if you can shake its shell." Zhe said.

"Lin Tao, you try it. I really want to record these data." Xinya seemed to be interested as well.

really.

Scientists are all monsters, and even if they really become monsters, they will only return to their original appearance.

Lin Tao's mouth twitched a few times. Although he said this, he was still eager to try. After a while, he murmured: "Xinya, let me attack."

Xinya evenly spread the armor over her body: "This state is the best for testing. You go ahead and do it."

Lin Tao didn't say much. He took a deep breath first, then controlled his strength to a certain level, and with a whoosh, he punched out.

Boom! A loud noise spread throughout the cabin, even producing waves of echoes.

Tsk! The door opened, and two people outside the door poked their heads in in shock: "Brother Lin, what happened?"

"It's okay." Lin Tao waved his hand and asked them to go back.

The two of them looked at the situation in the cabin suspiciously, and when they saw the huge armor that Xinya had transformed into, they couldn't help but swallow. But seeing Lin Tao waving his hands again and again, they had no choice but to retreat.

The hatch closed.

Lin Tao clenched his five fingers, making crackling sounds. Although his body was strengthened by genetic enhancement drugs, the force of this punch was not great, but Lin Tao's five fingers were painful, as if it was a real layer of Kongli shell.

"Lin Tao, it seems you haven't used up all your strength yet." Xinya seemed to be aware of Lin Tao's strength.

"It's almost there." Lin Tao no longer had the heart to try again. He just wanted to confirm how strong that layer of flesh was.

Now, after one strike, he already had a rough idea in his mind.

"I still need to record the data." Xinya was slightly dissatisfied.

Lin Tao shrugged his shoulders. He came here not to accompany Xinya to do experiments, but to see her current situation.

"Zhen, do you think she can return to her original state after she has full control over this 'body'?" Lin Tao asked.

"Unlikely." Zhe's core sphere flashed and shot out a light curtain in the air. Inside the light curtain was some data, recording the situation inside Xinya's body.

"Lin Tao, the genes in her body have changed, and it is difficult to change them back." Zhe said: "But if this continues, I am very curious, what will she look like in the end?"

Is it impossible to change back?

In fact, this is different from Lin Tao's gene enhancement potion. Gene enhancement potion strengthens genes, but Xinya's situation has exceeded this scope and is almost equivalent to the level of mutation and evolution. How can she recover?

Just like Yang Yanzong's wild insect physique, even if he was forced to restore his human nature, it would probably only be passed down layer by layer.

After sighing softly, Lin Tao turned his head and looked at Zhe: "Zhe, have you found out what happened outside?"

Upon hearing this, Zhe's core sphere flashed a few times, as if asking silently whether it was time to mention these things now, after all, "Xinya" was still here.

"It's okay." Lin Tao waved his hand. Given Xinya's current situation, very few people could get in touch with her. Moreover, her current situation was rather special. Perhaps it was really related to the three-eyed people as Zhe said.

Therefore, Lin Tao believed that Xinya also had the right to know about the affairs of the three-eyed people.

"The giant star warships of the eight great families and the star pirates have withdrawn from the battlefield." Zhe said, and at the same time, with a whoosh, a curtain of light was shot out.

Withdraw from the battlefield? What's going on? Lin Tao was surprised.

'Xinya' was equally shocked: "Outside... is there a war outside?"

'Xinya' had been staying in the cabin, knowing nothing about what was happening outside. The war came as a shock to her now that she had regained consciousness, because she was also aware of the disasters that war brought.

"It's the eight great families and the Star Pirates." Lin Tao's eyes flickered a few times and he explained, "Now, the eight great families have completely defected from the Interstellar Federation."

"How is that possible?" Xinya was puzzled. "The eight great families have a special status in the Interstellar Federation. If they defect, wouldn't that be equivalent to completely giving up this status?"

"They are too ambitious." Lin Tao said. If it weren't for their ambition, perhaps the eight wealthy families would not have been instigated by the three-eyed people and defected from the Interstellar Federation.

'Xinya' fell silent and said nothing more.

At this time, the light curtain in the air also showed the battlefield situation. The picture was full of wreckage of ships. The only ones left were the fleets of Wei Hongxin and Wei Feihang.

These fleets remained where they were, seemingly waiting for the Grand Chancellor's orders.

"Zheng, do you know why they want to retreat from the battlefield?" Lin Tao was puzzled. Logically, if the eight powerful families attacked by force, even if they could not break into the capital star, they would trap the Grand Speaker and others in the capital star and wait until the moment of its destruction.

"How do I know what the Three-Eyed Tribe members are thinking?" Zhe retracted the light screen: "Isn't there another Three-Eyed Tribe member on the ship? Go and interrogate her."
