After Baiquan left.

It's not too late.

Chen Ming took the things Bai Quan sent him and returned to his usual resting place.

It was an independent room in a corner on the second underground floor of the laboratory.

After locking the door, Chen Ming raised his left hand and looked at the shell wristband.

The Queen Insect's consciousness then descended upon the shell wristbands.

As before, several insect eggs formed on the carapace wristband and several flexible tentacles grew out of it.

Chen Ming lined up the several medicine bottles that Bai Quan had sent him earlier on the table in front of him, and let the queen insect's tentacles take out a pill of medicine each and grind some powder for absorption.

The Queen of Insects is a psychic creature with extremely strong survival abilities. Moreover, what is now in the prosthesis is only a small part of the body tissue, so there is no problem in using these drugs.

Moreover, the queen insect is very sensitive to any substance it absorbs, so it only needs to absorb a little to help Chen Ming analyze the composition of these drugs.

Chen Ming confirmed that this part of the Queen Insect's body had absorbed the drugs, and that some relatively intense spiritual energy fluctuations appeared on several tentacles due to the drugs. The Queen Insect had also analyzed the composition of the drugs.

He had to find a way to figure out what these substances were from the Queen of Insects, who couldn't learn to speak.

Fortunately, after a series of difficult consciousness exchanges.

Chen Ming still wrote down the different materials used for these different medicines at the end of the medicine list given by Bai Quan.

Some of the ingredients in these medicines specifically for psychics can be synthesized using chemical substances, but most of them are natural psychic materials.

And there is a special place for these psychic materials used to make medicines.

That is, they are not particularly directional materials, but a certain type of material with certain special properties.

For example, the several kinds of medicines that Baiquan gave to assist meditation all require extracts from the fairy tree as the main ingredient.

Chen Ming had drunk tea made from fairy tree leaves before. Its spiritual energy fluctuations were very mild, and it was just right to be used as the main ingredient for this type of medicine.

Other materials with mild psychic properties, as long as their properties are similar to those of the fairy tree, can also serve as materials for this medicine.

Therefore, the materials of medicines used by psychics are not fixed. It is mainly the properties of the psychic materials that determine what medicines can be made, rather than the materials themselves.

So this leads to a problem, which is that Chen Ming has no way to replicate these medicines now.

Because Chen Ming didn't have anything that could be used as medicine.

Speaking of which, Chen Ming suddenly remembered that in the past, someone his boss knew seemed to want to exchange the fairy tree for Yan Xiong.

Chen Ming thought about it and decided not to change it, because he found that Yan Xiong was able to mass-produce metals with certain psychic properties.

Yan Xiong is now in Chaofan's hands as a source of materials for researching psychic metals.

Although these medicines seem very good to Chen Ming.

But he has no materials now, so the Queen of Insects cannot produce substances with similar properties.

We can only wait and see if there is a chance to get psychic plants of similar nature, the kind that can be developed sustainably, and maybe we can mass-produce them.

Chen Ming put away the medicines and planned to find an opportunity to send them out to the main body.

Some of the drugs that stimulate mental power for a short period of time can be kept, while the other part of the drugs that assist in mental training can be given to the Queen Insect or Xiao Shi.

After putting all the medicines away, Chen Ming turned his attention to another thing.

The egg of the Aurora Wind Spirit.

The Aurora Wind Spirit is a giant butterfly that lives in the atmosphere and can produce and control the aurora, or plasma, commonly known as plasma. It is the existence that Chen Ming has been looking for that can provide the queen insect with top-quality genes.

Chen Ming placed the colorful eggs in his fist-sized hand next to the tentacles on his other wrist and asked the queen insect: "Do you want to eat some or all? Or do you need to hatch them and wait for them to cocoon and become butterflies?"

The Queen Insect responded to Chen Ming vaguely, and then its tentacles wrapped around the egg. An even smaller tentacle extended from the tip of the tentacles and pierced directly into the egg.

The tiny tentacles were immediately pulled out, and the Aurora Wind Spirit's egg instantly returned to its original appearance, appearing to have no damage at all.

But the Queen of Insects' consciousness said that it had indeed extracted the genes of the Aurora Wind Spirit.

Chen Ming immediately opened the Queen Insect's panel and looked at the bottom line.

[Available operations: Repair (deep repair)/evolution/decomposition/genetic backtracking]

The Genetic Backtracking option is now greyed out.

Because some time ago, when Chen Ming's psychic power had advanced to the point where he could use deep repair capabilities, he had already revised the Queen Worm's genes.

All valuable genes have been mastered by the Queen of Insects, so there is no need for genetic tracing.

Genes that have no value and cannot be traced have also been completely cleared, so this function is of no use for the time being.

Chen Ming directly clicked on the [Evolution] option.

A large number of new options suddenly appeared on the panel.

These are the genes that the Queen Worm regained after being deeply repaired by Chen Ming's psychic power, as well as the new genes it acquired during its development on the planet where the mechanical city is located.

Chen Ming had seen this page before, and spent a lot of time studying the genes before attacking the mechanical colony planet.

So now he didn't look at it any more, but went straight to find the new genes that the Queen of Insects had acquired after acquiring the genes of the Aurora Wind Spirit.

The queen insect had eaten a few giant butterflies before.

So after absorbing the genes of the Aurora Wind Spirit, the Queen Insect now has an extra gene, but the number is not large. After a little screening, Chen Ming found those unique genes that belong to the name of Aurora Wind Spirit.

[Plasma storage cavity], [Plasma magnetic induction unit cell], [Strong magnetic field controlling brain matter], [Plasma isolation scales] and [Plasma isolation membrane].

Chen Ming took a quick look and then switched his perspective to an ordinary insect on the Queen Insect's side.

The Queen has taken the genes and actually created a new creature with these unique abilities.

Since it is purely for testing, what the Queen of Worms has created now looks like a piece of meat with a diameter of about ten meters, which simply has the ability to generate and control plasma.

After Chen Ming helped deliver a destroyer-class afterglow spacecraft that had been damaged in recent foreign exploration and had not yet been repaired.

The piece of meat that possessed the Aurora Wind Spirit created plasma on the spacecraft that emitted the magnificent colors of the Aurora.

The already damaged spacecraft system could not withstand the continuous plasma attack, and the shield quickly collapsed in contact with the plasma in just a dozen seconds.

The armor was in contact with the plasma for a little longer, but it was penetrated within a minute, allowing the plasma to damage the internal hull.

After all, it is a technology that can be used by Yuhui at the Brilliant Level. Even if it is just the plasma produced by a single creature, its power is self-evident.

While the spacecraft was being destroyed, the area around where it was docked was also being continuously destroyed by plasma.

An area emitting high heat and gorgeous aurora-like colors gradually formed around the spacecraft.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that the unique scenery in this area gradually disappeared.

There was a lot of plasma that was reacting with the ship and other things and was gradually disappearing.

But more plasma was absorbed into the body by the flesh created by the queen worm, which controlled the power of the magnetic field and was stored in a cavity specifically for storing plasma.

This plasma, which can destroy spacecraft, has almost dominant destructive power if used on living organisms and ground combat units.

At this moment, Chen Ming suddenly thought of something he had wanted to do before.

Create a powerful special combat individual belonging to the Zerg, similar to the Mechanical Race's Infernal Lord.

Chen Ming had been trying before, but the Queen Worm's current genes were unlikely to have enough power to match the Purgatory Core.

And from the current genes of the Aurora Wind Spirit, he saw the hope of creating special combat individuals.

Plasma is a good weapon in space, but on the ground it can crush similar ground units.

If this dangerous substance can be controlled at will, then catching up with the core of Purgatory should not be impossible.

Maybe it will work.

And it just so happened that Chen Ming had another interesting idea, an idea that might come in handy in the near future, so he had to give it a try.

It’s this time, and things are a bit tight again.

Researching this kind of stuff definitely takes a lot of time.

Chen Ming had been running out of time some time ago, so he had to work on a tight schedule.

It wasn't until a prosthesis shared some of the tasks that the condition started to improve slightly.

As a result, not long after that, several new tasks that require a long time to complete were put on my mind.

You should know that Glory has completed its second leap and has begun to establish a second transit point.

There are a lot of things here that need his real body's help to deal with.

The main body is busy enough.

As for the prosthesis, in addition to learning command techniques during the day, I also have to do research at night, which is just as busy.

If a new task is added, the pressure will be quite great.

But after carefully considering the benefits of this research to himself, Chen Ming decided to honestly find time to schedule this matter into his daily tasks.

He must create a special Zerg combat unit.

Such a special combat unit must meet at least three requirements.

Survive, move and fight.

The requirements for ensuring the survival of special operations units are simple, but not easy.

Because plasma, as a group of charged particles with extremely strong destructive power, not only has great killing power on the enemy, but also on oneself.

Therefore, special operations units must have the ability to survive in plasma.

Moreover, it is not the case that special operations units can simply use the genes of the Aurora Wind Spirit.

Although the Aurora Wind Spirit possesses the ability that Chen Ming needs, this species has a very gentle personality, and its scales and protective membrane are only used to prevent the damage of plasma from affecting itself.

This defensive measure has almost no effect against any other attacks, and even slightly sharper stone spears can directly pierce their bodies.

Of course, the prerequisite is that it can pierce, and the stone spear will not be annihilated by the plasma entangled around the Aurora Wind Spirit.

In short, on the planet where the Aurora Wind Spirit is located, the adult Aurora Wind Spirit living in the atmosphere has no natural enemies at all.

Only during the egg and larval stages can native organisms kill the Aurora Wind Spirit.

But the adult form is truly not a threat to any living creature.

Without natural enemies, there is naturally no need to evolve more combat capabilities.

The Aurora Wind Spirit's active combat capability and adaptability to dangerous environments are not strong, which makes it impossible for Chen Ming to directly ask the Queen of Insects to get an insect with only the Aurora Wind Spirit genes to fight.

Even if it is covered with a layer of Aurora Wind Spirit scales or protective film on the outside, it will not work. The fragile scales can be easily shattered on the battlefield. Once the scales are damaged, the insect may even be burned to death by its own plasma.

Moreover, Chen Ming also has requirements for manufacturing other special combat units, the Zerg.

That is, this kind of insect must rely on the most basic flesh, without any influence of external factors, to directly bear the damage caused by plasma.

Because the Zerg in Chen Ming's hands can not only rely on their physical existence, they can also rely on the psychic power of the Queen.

The Queen's psychic power is purely to enhance physical fitness and strength.

From the time she became a psychic creature until today, the Queen's psychic powers have improved significantly.

If the Queen uses her psychic powers, her body can even directly withstand the damage caused by plasma.

Even if Chen Minglai used the Queen Insect's psychic power, when he faced some ordinary swords and small-caliber bullets, he could ensure that he would not be harmed at all simply by relying on the strength of human tissue and the Queen Insect's psychic power amplification.

Even if facing some large-caliber weapons, the most they would suffer would be some superficial injuries, of course, let alone spaceship-level weapons.

So this is the current strength of the Queen's psychic power.

Although it has not been long since the Queen of Insects became a psychic creature, the speed at which her psychic powers are enhanced is not slow.

Even though it does not have the amplifying effects of those additional objects mentioned by Chen Ming, it still has hive thinking and the consciousness of a huge number of Zerg units that can feed back to the Queen.

The Zerg's hive mind can provide Chen Ming with additional mental power, so of course they are also providing this treatment to the hive's most important consciousness, the Queen.

It was for this reason that Chen Ming had considered getting some medicine for the queen insect.

Although the medicine is not available now.

But the strength of the Queen Insect itself will not decrease, and Chen Ming also has other means to strengthen the Queen Insect.

For Chen Ming now, it is not a big problem even if he divides out one condensed spiritual energy source. One condensed spiritual energy source and two condensed spiritual energy source have the same nature, and the intensity of spiritual energy fluctuations provided to the environment is also the same.

Twice the fifty-degree water cannot make one hundred-degree water.

Therefore, giving the Queen Insect a source of condensed spiritual energy and allowing it to absorb the high-concentration spiritual energy fluctuations emitted by the source of condensed spiritual energy will definitely help it improve faster.

We will try to let Chen Ming be able to resist plasma with his physical body when using the Queen Insect's psychic power as soon as possible.

In short, it is because of the existence of the Queen's psychic power that Chen Ming wants to create a Zerg special combat unit that has the ability to directly withstand plasma with its physical body.

The stronger the body, the stronger it will become when it receives the amplification of the Queen Insect's spiritual energy.

At the same time, it also prevents the situation where the Queen of Insects' mental power is exhausted one day, and the special operations units are burned to death by themselves.

But no matter what, it is absolutely impossible to use the black shell to resist plasma.

Now Chen Ming can only use two different genes to let the queen insect mix them to create a new shell.

The difficulty of directly using genes to create related organisms is not at the same order of magnitude as the difficulty of combining two different strings of genes to create a string of genes that can express traits normally and meet the requirements.

This is the area where Chen Ming will definitely need to spend the most time.

However, after Chen Ming assigned a task to the Queen of Insects.

Chen Ming suddenly discovered a problem.

It’s that the deep repair capabilities on the panel seemed to have some special circumstances that he hadn’t discovered before.

Chen Ming's deep maintenance ability is to optimize an entire thing to the level that is most suitable for its essential work.

Once a deep repair has been done, it will not be possible to do it again. After all, the repaired items are already the most suitable ones.

However, Chen Ming discovered at this time that the Queen of Insects could perform deep repairs again. The limitation that his deep repairs could only be used once was not absolute. Things that had undergone deep repairs could also be deep repaired again.

The premise for doing so...

Chen Ming studied it roughly and figured it out.

Anything that has been deeply repaired will have some overall changes.

For example, a refrigerator can be turned into a useful refrigerator after Chen Ming’s deep repair.

Then he was able to replace the refrigerator's refrigeration equipment with heating equipment, turning the refrigerator into an oven.

If you perform deep repairs at this time, the entire refrigerator will turn into an oven.

Of course, such extreme changes are not actually needed. Only partial structural changes are needed, and Chen Ming can optimize the changed things to an appropriate level again.

For example, the Queen Worm, after absorbing some organisms, undergoes some genetic changes, and can then undergo another deep repair.

For example, the product created by the Queen of Zerg is a fusion of the chaotic Aurora Wind Spirit gene and the Zerg's dark shell gene.

Even Chen Ming doesn't need the genes of the Aurora Wind Spirit's scales and protective membrane.

Because the optimization effect of deep maintenance is like a barrel with one long board and many short boards.

It does not make up for the weaknesses by taking advantage of the strengths, but directly uses the excessive consumption of Chen Ming's mental power to make the weaknesses grow to the level of strengths.

So, in order to adapt to the existence of plasma

Chen Ming felt that his psychic power should be able to deeply repair the Zerg's original shell and the mucous membranes inside their mouthparts that are easily exposed to the outside, to the point where they can directly resist plasma.

And this new shell that has been deeply repaired will definitely be recorded and passed down by the Queen, just like the Zerg things that Chen Ming had made with his psychic power before.

Chen Ming's ideas about the survivability of special operations units have basically become clear at this point.

And he also transmitted this idea completely to the Queen of Insects.

More than an hour later, Chen Ming was about to go to bed.

There is good news from the Queen of Insects.

It has created a twisted mass of flesh that possesses the genes of the Aurora Wind Spirit to control plasma-related body tissues, and has injected a gene that has not been thoroughly combed, but is a violent mixture of the plasma protection gene and the Zerg's shell gene. This completely immobile mass of flesh is covered with various sharp growths and abrupt scaly wings of varying sizes, and secretes disgusting purple sticky body fluids.

This is the result that the Queen Insect managed to achieve after failing dozens of times.

The existence of the chaos gene means that the Queen of Worms can only do this much now.

But at least it's still alive, and the nerves of the meat block also restrict the meat block from instinctively using the organs to produce plasma, so that it will not burn itself to death as soon as it is produced.

Give Chen Ming time to use his spiritual power.

It's almost time to take a break now.

Chen Ming simply washed up, lay down on his bed and closed his eyes.

Then he used deep repair power on the piece of meat.

Chen Ming fell into a coma after suffering a severe headache that he had not experienced for a long time.

The piece of meat affected by his psychic power is gradually evolving towards a normal creature under the influence of psychic power.

After dawn.

Chen Ming climbed up with full energy.

The first thing I looked at was the eye worm.

However, something unexpected happened to him. The lump of meat still looked like a lump of meat, and there seemed to be no change to the naked eye.

"What's going on?"

The Queen of Insects immediately transmitted a piece of memory to Chen Ming.

Just last night, after Chen Ming fell into a coma after using his psychic power, his psychic power did take effect on this ugly lump of flesh.

But his spiritual power gradually disappeared after a certain period of time.

It disappeared not because of any interference, but simply because there was not enough mental strength to support the fluctuations of psychic energy.

This means that Chen Ming's mental strength is not enough to transform this piece of meat into its proper appearance in one go.

The long-lost pain in his brain last night was still vivid in his mind. The troubles brought about by the genetic chaos were far more complicated than what Chen Ming saw.

And this should also be due to some of the Aurora Wind Spirit genes. After all, it was not so troublesome when Chen Ming did deep repairs on the Queen of Insects before.

It seems that he needs to continue with at least one more in-depth maintenance, otherwise the mental energy consumed previously will be wasted.

To be honest, the mental energy consumed by using psychic power this time was a little beyond Chen Ming's imagination.

But since the consumption of spiritual energy is so huge, it means that if his attempt can really succeed, the effect will definitely be unimaginable.

Chen Ming was a little impatient, but time would not pass faster just because he wanted to.

Deep maintenance should be done at night.

Now Chen Ming could only praise the Queen of Insects, cut off communication with her, and turned his gaze to the terminal. There was a file on the terminal that Bai Quan had sent more than an hour ago.

Chen Ming took a look and found that this was the report that Bai Quan said he had to read every day last night.

The content includes but is not limited to current affairs within the 14th Legion. It can be said that all the important news of the entire star field is condensed in this report, which is of great help in understanding information from the outside world.

The main content of today's report mainly talks about the gambling agreement signed between Chen Mingbaiquan and Lou Wei, as well as the news that Zuo Jing infiltrated the 14th Corps branch yesterday.

Just as Chen Ming was looking at more detailed content.

Bai Quan suddenly pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing Chen Ming holding the terminal, he instantly understood what Chen Ming was doing.

"How's the viewing?"

"It's quite detailed. Basically, I have information from all sides. But I think there seems to be a lot of false information spreading that is not good for you. Don't you care about it?"

"Don't worry, it's not a big problem. We will continue with the class today."
