The surface of the alien star, looking around, is still a hazy yellow, without a second color.
The environmental modification of Alien Star has never stopped.
The scientific research team has been working hard, and the silver skateboard has been applied to the extreme.
But Alien Star is a huge planet after all, and the transformation of planetary environment is a very huge project.
Even if superpowers are applied, it will be difficult to see initial results without a period of three to five years!
However, in the past half a year, the environmental improvement team has not been without success.
The substantial reduction in sandstorms is the result of everyone's efforts.
Without the influence of the sandstorm, the three of Ian traveled smoothly, and soon came to a rift valley more than 100 kilometers away.
"That's right here, the swarm is below!" Professor X pointed at the chasm.
"Okay! I'll open the way!" Ian walked to the front to open the way.
It only needs to be disassembled and reassembled, and the obstacles will become smooth in an instant, and a spacious passage will go deep underground at [-] degrees.
Finally, 200 meters underground, I found the swarm that Professor X said.
Professor X extracts the memory, Ian destroys the body and wipes out the traces, and then the three move on.
Follow the underground passage where this swarm migrates, looking for the fixed crypt worm colonies in its memory.
Only when this kind of fixed community and collective consciousness has been formed for a long enough time can it be possible to obtain more valuable memories.
The strength of the three is not weak, even if they are traveling underground, their speed is not slow.
Soon they found their first target: a swarm of about a thousand burrow worms.
Magneto controlled the swarm and waited for Professor X to read the memory.
But for a while, I didn't see Professor X's next move.
"What's wrong?" Ian couldn't help asking.
"This collective consciousness has only three days of memory!" Professor X replied puzzled.
"How could this be?" Magneto frowned slightly.
"I don't know, there is nothing abnormal in the memory of these three days!" Professor X shook his head.
"Damn it!" Magneto directly crushed the bug carrying the collective consciousness.
But the next moment, Professor X let out a surprise: "Huh!"
"What did you find?" Ian asked immediately.
"A new collective consciousness has emerged!" Professor X replied,
This answer gave Ian an idea:
"I thought of a possibility: as long as the number of bugs exceeds the critical value, the collective consciousness will not disappear. If the individual carrying the consciousness dies, the collective consciousness will die, but at the same time, a new collective consciousness will be generated!"
This can also explain why the previous collective consciousness only had three days of memory.
"Very likely!" Professor X nodded in agreement.
"Then find the next bug swarm to try!" Magneto directly crushed all the remaining bugs to death.
The result was naturally no surprise, and the conjecture was verified again.
Because of this death-renewal phenomenon of the collective consciousness of the swarm, the value of the memory information obtained from the fixed swarm is greatly reduced.
Among them, the most valuable is probably the terrain in their respective territories, as well as the location of other nearby insect swarms.
However, the three of Ian did not give up.
Going around underground, it took a full three days.
They finally found the largest crypt bug swarm in the entire Alien Planet!
This is a dark crypt abyss with a diameter of more than ten kilometers and a bottomless depth. The walls are full of large and small caves.
The alien zerg's biggest boss is probably down there.
But the three of Ian didn't go straight this time.
"It's dangerous under the abyss, I don't recommend going down!" Ian suggested.
His intuition told him that it was very dangerous down there, and now he couldn't beat it at all, so he could barely escape for his life.
Professor X also nodded in agreement with Ian's suggestion:
"I feel a very powerful consciousness down below, and there is a high probability that I am not an opponent!"
Ian and Professor X had the same idea, and Magneto did not insist on taking risks: "Okay! This swarm, be fully prepared next time, and deal with it again!!"
Alien Zerg is not yet an obstacle to the development of Alien, so there is no need to rush to deal with it.
Ever since, the three ended the three-day investigation.
Although the hidden danger of the Alien Zerg was not completely solved this time, it was not without gains.
At least they have figured out most of the information about the alien Zerg.
Except for the last swarm of unknown size, the other crypt swarms are not worth mentioning, and the largest size is only tens of thousands.
Additionally, the Aliens seem to be at a crucial stage of evolution where they seem to want to evolve a form dedicated to hosting a collective consciousness.
During these three days, Ian and the others saw a lot of weird bugs.
Without exception, they are the hosts of the collective consciousness of each worm group, and the three call them 'brain worms'!
These worms with peculiar shapes present the various stages and directions of the evolution of the 'brain worm' in the most intuitive way.
It's a pity that none of them can be called a complete brain worm, most of them are failures, and the best ones are only semi-finished products!
Perhaps only the unknown swarm in the abyss has a complete crypt brainworm!
I just don't know its shape and ability!
Ian was delayed for three days in Alien, and Ian didn't plan to stay here any longer.
But before leaving, Ian solemnly reminded Magneto:
"Eric, don't provoke the swarm in the abyss, we are not opponents yet.
I'll deal with them when I'm sure.
Believe me, that time will not be too long! "
……
Just after returning to Earth, Ian received Tony's party invitation, inviting him to attend the Avengers' celebration banquet!
Ian didn't reply to Tony, but he decided to go anyway.
He doesn't want to attend the party.
After a battle of life and death, the Avengers established a deep friendship.
As an outsider, Ian would definitely look out of place if he got involved.
But there are some people he still wants to meet!
In three days, most of the debris accumulated in Manhattan has been cleared.
At least the streets are passable, and the debris that has piled up on them has been removed.
Part of it was sent to laboratories in various countries around the world in exchange for a large sum of post-war reconstruction funds.
Some of them were sent to the bases and laboratories of various departments in the United States. Anyway, there is a copy for those with a little reputation.
Even so, it is still not finished.
In the end, most of the wreckage was sent to a dismantling recovery and storage center converted from a military base.
Because the battlefield is too big and there are too many wreckage, it is impossible to control it.
So the U.S. government simply smashed the cans, supplied them on a large scale, and sold them for money.
It is foreseeable that the world may become quite lively in the future!
But these are things that governments should worry about.
Ian is not going to meddle in these nosy matters, so naturally this matter has nothing to do with him!
When he came to Manhattan, Ian found that the Stark Tower had also been cleaned up.
Stark Tower is one of the few surviving edifices in the Battlefield area, and the tallest of them all.
Now it looks very conspicuous!
Moreover, after three days of emergency repairs, the upper part of the building, especially the exterior decoration, has basically been repaired.
The resplendent and resplendent Stark Tower forms a strong contrast with the large area of war ruins below.
However, this picture looks quite harmonious!
