All night long, Shen Cong was recuperating his body and thinking about the cause of the accident and the issues involved.
The imperfection of evolution…
The activity limit of King Kong...
Shen Cong's own position in evolution...
The theory of three forms of active gas-liquid-solid changes...
Did other evolvers encounter his encounters, such as mutants, evolved beasts, half-orcs, and how the evolutionary tree progressed from the Lv0 era to the Lv1 era...
Or, is the division method of Lv0 and Lv1 really correct and reasonable?
A sleepless night gave him enough time to think, and he gradually came up with a lot of plausible information.
Shen Cong is very good at association. If a person says one more sentence, he can even completely figure out how this person will plan to murder him after returning, and put countermeasures into action.
Often think too much.
In the current apocalypse, Shen Cong has seen many forms of mutation.
Mutations in plants are generally caused by metallic gradients in the bark. Most of the survivors are tall trees, with almost no shrubs or herbs, at least he hasn't discovered them yet. Some evolutionary trees will bear fruit, and the killer peach tree will bear active peaches. , and can also eat animal carcasses.
The mutation of animals is much more complicated. Generally, evolved beasts have active cores with strengthened bodies, mutated physical features, and signs of metal gradients; some evolved beasts have no active core, such as evolution failure, and the ferocious cat is an example; there are also The iron beast that combines vehicles, the plastic rabbit, is one example.
Shen Cong didn't have much contact with animals in the sea. The dog crocodile was probably a kind, with the triangular drumstick on its tail like an active core. Evolved fish could also be considered a type of evolved beast, most of which were ordinary carp, grass carp, herring evolved, almost all of them. It is a failure case, there is no active core.
Insects are also animals, and they are evolved beasts. Shen Cong has not seen many insects, but they are all special. Digging insects can drill into the sand, change their body shape greatly, and have an active core; short-term ant colonies are large in scale, and the queen can produce mutated offspring. All ants have active cores; the blowfly itself is not an evolved beast, but under Shen Cong's cultivation, it has mutations in the first generation and second generation.
As for humans, Shen Cong has very little contact with them - according to the classification of survivors, there are three directions of mutation, mutants, half-orcs, and iron men. But Shen Cong thought that they can be roughly classified into two types, and mutants and half-orcs can be considered the same kind. , it’s just that half-orcs are mutants who failed to mutate.
He has met half-orcs twice, and the active core is obvious, but the animal nature has suppressed the human nature.
He has never seen a mutant or an Iron Man, except that he is also an Iron Man.
In fact, apart from the higher IQ of humans, the way of mutation is not much different from that of animals. In general, mutation is only an obvious difference between plants and animals, and the rest are internal differences between animals and plants.
Let’s not consider plants, let’s just talk about the variation of animals.
Shen Cong previously believed that Iron Man is the most powerful way to mutate. Compared with the gradual transformation of a certain part of the metal into an active core, Iron Man's gentle strengthening method is safer and more efficient. However, the "gaseous-liquid-solid hypothesis" has been The brainstorming, coupled with this crisis, quickly shook Shen Cong's thoughts.
Perhaps mutant talent is the safest and most efficient direction of mutation.
Shen Cong could imagine that if he hadn't been delayed several times, he would have been killed by the out-of-control activity when he broke through to Level 1. So other iron men, especially those who absorb the activity smoothly, are they very dangerous?
Did any Iron Man die from this? If not, how did they solve the problem?
This answer requires contact with an iron man before making a judgment.
At least Shen Cong felt this huge obstacle from himself - the path of mutation or evolution seemed to be obscured by fog, the direction could not be seen clearly, and it was full of crises at any time.
…
When I was most energetic, Activity gave me a wake-up call.
Shen Cong felt more and more that he needed to obtain more information about activity.
There is no way to obtain it in a short period of time, unless he immediately runs to Hefei City, joins the army, and exchanges information from the army. The King Kong has broken through Lv1, and now there is no further information, and there is no way to continue to upgrade, unless Shen Cong I want to lose control of my activity a few more times.
However, Shen Cong was even more nervous about the stagnant strength.
He is afraid that if he falls behind every step, he will fall behind step by step. The evolvers in the area south of the city are not of reference value. His goal is the evolvers in big cities and war zones. The end of the world is both a crisis and an opportunity. He wants to keep himself as a prey at the top of the food chain. rather than low-end prey.
"So, what's the problem between King Kong and I? How should King Kong grow next? How can I strengthen it?"
His body was severely damaged, so Shen Cong did not leave the King Kong. He was currently underestimating his strength. An ordinary person could kill him. He had no sense of security and did not dare to leave the King Kong for even half a step.
The Bull Demon King totem has been dismantled, and there is no strong storm. The speed at which the King Kong absorbs free activity has dropped to a very slow level.
However, slowness does not stop. Just like breathing, Shen Cong cannot stop the ingestion of King Kong. After accumulating to a certain amount, the out-of-control activity will still be exchanged.
This is a problem he urgently needs to solve.
Fortunately, Shen Cong calculated that the King Kong would have to accumulate an activity level of Lv0.01 before it would undergo an out-of-control exchange. It would take the King Kong three or four days to achieve this amount of activity.
Within three or four days, he will be safe.
In fact, if he has three or four days to recover, he can basically recover. With his current physical fitness corresponding to Lv0.954, the out-of-control activity again will not cause much crisis to him. On the contrary, Uncontrolled activity can also improve his physical fitness.
But if the out-of-control activity is not resolved, the King Kong cannot grow in strength, which is very scary and will make Shen Cong feel insecure.
Not having a sense of security is tantamount to letting him die.
"Perhaps it's because my level is not high enough that it's slowing down the upgrade of the King Kong?" Suddenly, Shen Cong thought of a possibility.
He is the core of the King Kong, or the King Kong is his core. It doesn't matter. They are the integration of life. In other words, they are a whole. The King Kong is already Lv1, but Shen Cong is only Lv0.954. He still reached the level after losing control and being violently strengthened. .
The two are not in sync.
"Siphon phenomenon!"
"The water at the upper level will continue to flow through the siphon to the water at the lower level."
"It's very possible. Maybe this is the key - the King Kong and I must maintain the same level in order to progress. I only pursue the level of the King Kong, thinking that if the King Kong is upgraded, it will have a reaction on me and make me stronger. .This is a misunderstanding. King Kong and I are two sides of one body. If I eat active peach, it can also affect King Kong!"
The more I think about it, the more possible it becomes.
The life-integrated King Kong and him have gone far beyond the physical boundaries, and there is a difference in activity between them. It is very likely that a siphon will occur like this.
This is also consistent with his hypothesis of "gas-liquid-solid". It is precisely because the activity is like water that siphoning occurs.
Streamlined the train of thought.
Shen Cong continued to think deeply: "Perhaps, I have overlooked something, what exactly is the King Kong!"
The King Kong is a modified heavy truck. At first, only the frame part came to life. Then, under the guidance of Shen Cong, the alloy was used bit by bit to make the whole thing come alive.
But, going back to the beginning, what if the King Kong is just a small truck?
Does that mean that the King Kong will reach Level 1 as long as the small truck is full of activity? If the small truck is towed with a bucket behind it, how should it be counted? Is it considered part of the King Kong, or is it not part of it?
Under Shen Cong's modification, many components were added to the King Kong, including vehicle radio, 15A radar, camera-closed-circuit television system (monitor), infrared thermal imaging camera-closed-circuit television system, external armor, RV living structure and other systems, as well as External components such as periscopes, solar charging panels, small refrigerators, water tanks, Bull Demon King totems, etc.
These are all incorporated into the integral part of the King Kong by Shen Cong.
Other materials in the car, such as laptops, mobile phones, USB flash drives, X-ray machines, drones, remote control cars, inflatable dolls, etc., are not included in the overall Kong Kong... The explosive armor consumes the activity of the King Kong. , are not included as a whole, and other equipment after being alloyed by King Kong are also not included... How can these be summarized?
Thinking about it this way, Shen Cong suddenly realized that he had indeed ignored many issues.
He has never given a definition to the entirety of the King Kong! He injects vitality into the entirety of the King Kong as a weight and measure, and determines it to be at the Lv1 level. However, the concept of the King Kong is vague and can even change.
Today, an extra steel plate was added. After alloying, it is the King Kong plus the steel plate as a whole. If an extra steel plate is lost tomorrow, it will be the King Kong minus the steel plate as a whole.
Weights and measures themselves are not accurate, so how can we quantify the hierarchical system?
How to define King Kong?
Shen Cong immediately thought about the ability of alloy. Will the King Kong have an alloy limit... When the alloy reaches enough materials, it can no longer be alloyed?
"Testing the limits of the King Kong?" Shen Cong's eyes flashed.
