Chapter 292 Myelin

 Sha——

The moment the ink ball came into contact with the red-eyed purple wasp, it immediately disintegrated and dispersed, changed back into a filamentous form, and directly wrapped the body of the alien wasp.

The red-eyed purple wasp struggled instinctively, flapped its membrane wings rapidly, and made a violent buzzing sound.

After a few breaths, the struggle stopped, and the alien bee regained its composure, lying quietly in the palm of the Mosi clone, but its color changed to pitch black as ink.

A clone? No, not exactly.

Li Ang tried to sense the red-eyed purple wasp with his mind. The moment he sent out his thoughts, the alien bee spread its membrane wings and raised its front two legs as he expected.

The silk silk not only covers the body surface of the alien wasp, but also has several strands that penetrate into the alien wasp's body and are directly connected to the ganglia in the alien wasp's body.

The skull is broken by the sword!

Li Ang immediately thought of his own situation. The silk in his body was also highly bound to the nervous system of the brain and spine. It filled up the missing spiritual veins at the critical moment when he was admitted to the Academy.

The difference is that Mosi's nerve connections to the red-eyed purple wasp are connected in parallel.

The degree of symbiosis is far less profound than myself.

Li Ang tried to issue instructions to the alien bees, and as long as they were within their capabilities, the alien bees could execute them perfectly.

It can fly to an altitude of thousands of meters, look down from a high altitude, and conduct reconnaissance

It is possible to accelerate suddenly and sting people with bees.

Regardless of speed, flexibility, and attack power, it is far stronger than the original version of the Red-Eyed Purple Bee Bee.

It is simply a biomorphic weapon enhanced by Mosi.

Li Ang's mind changed quickly, and he directly controlled the main body of Mo Si's clone and walked towards the corner of the cave.

There are some bats, voles, weasels and other creatures that are used as food for alien bees.

Mo Si's clone threw ink balls at them, and the result was unexpected.

All creatures are parasitized by ink, and while their color turns black, they absolutely obey Li Ang's instructions.

Walk, run, jump, fly,

Li Ang even controlled a field mouse, holding a wooden stick, and performed a cane dance.

How on earth is this done?!

Li Ang's suspicion only increased. The most basic unit of the vertebrate nerve center is the neuron.

Neurons are divided into two parts: cell bodies and processes. Countless neurons are connected through processes and together form the nerve center.

Only then can there be reflection, reaction, memory, and even consciousness and wisdom.

Moss silk can not only control insects with simple ganglia,

It can also control vertebrate animals with highly complex nerve centers and usurp control of the body.

fish, bat, vole,

Even larger creatures.

Li Ang immediately thought of those sci-fi and horror-type literary and artistic works in the memory of other worlds. Surprised and uncertain, he concentrated on observing and analyzing, and finally saw some clues.

A piece of ink will stretch out countless tiny hairs.

Penetrate, or grow directly into the brain of vertebrates,

Hangs on the myelin sheath of neurons.

(Myelin is an insulating fatty coating outside the axons of vertebrate nerve cells, which prevents interference between neurons and speeds up the transmission of action potentials through the "jump conduction" mechanism)

Myelin is equivalent to the highway of the nervous system. Its existence enables vertebrates to react and think quickly.

"Is the ink hanging down on the myelin sheath, taking over the signal transmission of neurons, and sending designated messages to the nerve center?

Or does it act as a new neuron itself, equivalent to adding a 'plug-in brain' to the creature?"

Lacking experimental equipment, Li Ang was unable to accurately analyze the principle of the fifth stage of ink silk changes.

But one thing is for sure, it is definitely not as simple as an ordinary alienated substance.

All past speculations have been overturned.

Li Ang looked at the mo silk in his body solemnly, as if it was the first day he met it.

Let’s take a step at a time.

He sighed secretly. The functions of Mosi's fifth stage are more than that. After experiments, the upper limit of controlled creatures is about thirty.

To a large extent, it depends on Li Ang's thoughts.

Moreover, when he stops controlling, he can also withdraw the ink thread into the body of the parasitized organism, allowing the parasitic organism to move normally.

The last and most important point is,

Li Ang's own thinking speed has also increased, and he can enter a state of rapid thinking, or "contemplation".

This should be related to Mosi’s new characteristics.

Without considering extraordinary power, thinking is essentially countless tiny currents in the central nervous system. It needs to be realized through the information transmission of neurons themselves and the information transmission between neurons. It is the joint action of electrical signals and chemical signals.

process.

This also means that thinking itself has a physiological upper limit.

The rate of axonal electrical impulses, the release of neurotransmitters, and the arousal of cell bodies, each process affects the speed of thinking.

The average speed of each single neuron firing signals is about 180 kilometers per hour.

The ink interfered with the myelin sheath, replacing part of the electrical and chemical signal transmission, which was equivalent to speeding up Li Ang's thinking speed, and looking at the outside world was like watching in slow motion.

Bullet time, this is it.

This new ability has a qualitative improvement in strength. If used in the arena, Li Ang will not even need to use new mental skills. He can fly away all the daggers with the triangular spear and end the game early.

Dang——

The sound of the Haotian bell in the academy brought Li Ang's thoughts back to reality.

The arena competition was over, and the audience left the venue along the aisle with satisfaction and regret. Disciples from all over the world voluntarily stayed and used telekinesis and dust-sweeping talismans to clean up the garbage.

"Please all the players who participated in the competition today don't leave yet and come to the ring."

A voice amplified by a talisman came from the referee's seat.

Li Ang waved his hand and did not let Chai Chai push him in the wheelchair. He stood up and walked quickly down from the auditorium.

Many players have gathered around the ring.

The Mountain Chief, Cardinal Xinxiu and other representatives from various colleges were also there. Li Ang also saw a Taoist with an immortal style - judging from his clothing with a deer head pattern, it was obviously the Mountain Chief of Luli Academy.

Luqingya.

Chen Danqiu, who was drinking wine at the academy, looked around and said calmly: "The performance of all the students today can be said to be outstanding, allowing the audience to see the future of the spiritual world.

It is now early May. In half a month, we will hold the final competition at the Jialan Sect site in Lingtai Mountain, three hundred miles away from Chang'an, to determine the top ten for this academic exchange.

The winner will go to Zhanquan, Taihao Mountain for further study.

The top 20 people will also receive prizes provided by each college.

It should be noted that the Jialan Sect ruins have not yet been completely cleaned up, there are restrictions, aliens are infested, and there are dangers.

It is up to you to decide whether to participate.

If the list of forty students is incomplete, the best will be selected from the students with outstanding performance in this academic exchange."
