In a neat and bright operating room, a hunched and atrophic body is surrounding the operating table. The furnishings in the room are very simple, with several lighting balls suspended in the air, a chair, several sliding tables, a large number of trays, and a huge operating table.
“…It’s not easy.”
A satisfied sigh was sighing, and the hunched body pulled off the white cloth from the operating table, and a strange life was exposed.
It was covered with rubber-like lilac carapace, a chitin ridge extending from its top to its lower part, and a ball of pink tendrils emerged below the body, many tendrils still twitching, as if they each had life.
And behind this body is a swollen brain covered with meridians.
The Tyron brainworms, the most weird Tyron Zerg, are also very rare in the Tyron army. They are powerful psychic units rare in the Tyron army. According to the research of some biological sages, it may be that the Hive fleet used newly absorbed alien genes to create these living psychic catheters to use the spiritual power gathered by the Hive master brain.
From the outside, these creatures have evolved to the extreme, and they cannot walk on their limbs without limbs. The shrinking body and bloated head float up entirely by relying on psychic energy, suspended over the battlefield, launching psionic energy attacks on the enemies below, or passing commands from the master brain of the insect nest to the smaller Tyran Zergs.
It is extremely difficult to just defeat such a target, because brainworms are different from low-level Terra Zergs, they know how to retreat, so there is no record of capture so far.
However, this hunched figure did it, although it was useless.
He looked like an extremely weak old man, wearing a purple robe, shrinking to only half of the normal spiritual race, and his face was covered with deep wrinkles. Without those pointed ears, it would be impossible to recognize that this was a spiritual race.
For the elves with extremely long lifespan, it can be said that aging is very difficult.
Therefore, just looking at his appearance, he is almost no different from an old man in humanity.
But now, he showed no sign of weakness at all, but was full of excitement.
He looked at the brainworm with his dim eyes. The other party had been injected with various sedatives and psychic inhibitors, and his power was greatly weakened and could not pose a threat.
Then, the elderly elves turned around, picked up a syringe, and stabbed it into the skin below through the cracks in the other party's shell.
In this way, it will not struggle in the next surgery.
For him now, torture is useless, and all means are actually just to reveal the hidden feelings under the cracked skin of the experimental subject.
Then he picked up the bell on the table and shook it, and a man mumbled into the cell. The deformed monster held a large tray in his hand, which contained a row of tools, nutrition jars and strange devices.
"Teren Zerg, I have been exploring their secrets for more than a thousand years, but every time I think I will come to an end, they will give me new surprises. This is extraordinary. Maybe I can uncover a huge secret about the universe. But first I have to know where they come from and why. I don't believe that they are simply devouring wild beasts. These creatures must have a shocking goal."
Faced with the old spiritual clan’s nagging, the man just answered with a creaking sound.
The old elves then turned to his captives, first checking a series of organs on the side of its body, then picked up the sharp edge of the appendage and peeled off the rough edge of the carapace. The woven mesh tissue below immediately attracted his attention.
After checking, he picked up a black needle and gently poked the swollen nerve bundle. After confirming that the other party would twitch, he nodded and turned around to write something on a booklet.
Then he took out an empty bottle, put part of the brain tissue and blood in the bottle, and mixed it with another detection liquid he often used, which can analyze the psychic components of the organism.
The old elves frowned and raised the bottle and shook the container inside into a vortex shape. However, the result surprised him. The brain tissue and blood of brainworms do not contain psychic media. Usually, many psychic organisms contain a small amount of hormones or enzymes that can promote psychic activity.
However, the tissue of brainworms is very simple, which means that their psychic energy is completely stimulated by organs, and in a sense it is indeed closer to weapons.
"Tsk tsk, interesting."
The old elves then conducted a quick scan to check the distribution of the other party's internal organs. This kind of sample is extremely rare and without full confidence that he will not dissect and destroy the integrity of the sample.
After scanning, he found that the brain worm had a very short tongue, but this creature had no vocal organs. So what is the function of the tongue?
"Is it a kind of infrasonic wave that can command low-level Zergs? But Tyron's contact is usually considered brain waves or psychics, or is it their backup means of contact?"
With doubt, the old elves opened the other party's mouth full of sharp teeth and dragged the purple tongue out a little with tweezers.
After putting his finger in, the old elves found that it felt very warm to the touch, and there were more peculiar touches.
With countless years of experience, he roughly analyzed that the tongue is actually hollow, and the structure similar to a bud at the tip of the tongue is actually its mouth, that is, this soft tongue is its throat!
It is obvious that brainworms have vocal organs, but they should emit some kind of infrasound wave that is difficult to capture.
"The extremely weird structure, but this has always been my interest. Will you think about it yourself? With such a developed brain, does the mind exist? I have observed some of your war machines, and some tyrants will have special unique behaviors. Is that the awakening of self-consciousness? Is the hive structure just a cover?"
The old elves stared at the unconscious creature, muttering to himself, tilted his jaw in one direction, and twisted his thumb in the other direction.
"You are one of my rare samples of well-preserved Tyron. One day, I will gain a lot of knowledge from you, but first..."
As he said that, he used a knife to peel off the carapace on the forehead of the brainworm, and then tweezers slipped into the white diaphragm to gently support it.
Slowly and carefully, cut the diaphragm open and spread to both sides, exposing the nerves to the air.
He then put down the surgical device, held up a half-spirited bone creature similar to a jellyfish, and placed it on the brainworm's exposed nerves.
Many creatures in the Milky Way have methods to prevent other people from entering the consciousness, but if creatures enter dreams, the situation will be different.
