Chapter 38 Memetic Infection

The biggest difference between sailors and fishermen is the difference in courage.

Sailors dare to use ropes, springboards and other tools to jump gang fights when the battleship is docking. This is a kind of courage to fight in a crowded and narrow space.

Fishermen dare to jump into the sea with harpoons and fishing nets to catch fish. When they encounter large fish, as long as there are enough people and the fishing boats are strong, they dare to hunt and kill them. This is a kind of hunting and fighting courage. .

This does not mean that sailors are more courageous than fishermen, but that humans are more confident in areas they are familiar with.

If the murlocs of the Blood Red Church encounter normal sailors, there is a high probability that the two sides will fall into a stalemate.

But they encountered an extremely unprofessional fleet and had to discuss with professional fishermen whether sea fish or fish people are more flexible.

Even if many fishermen were injured by fishmen and their blood was mixed into the cold sea water, it could not stop the fishermen's enthusiasm for catching big fish.

When the fishermen trapped the fishmen with multiple fishing nets, and several people stepped on the slender planking of the fishing boat, waving barbed harpoons to continuously bleed the fishmen, the sailors all admired the fishermen's ability. courage.

"Colonel, when fishermen catch big fish, they have a tradition of bleeding and labor-intensive, and usually kill them alive.

If you don't stop them, they will probably kill those fish. Treat people as sharks."

"Tell them, living fishmen are more valuable, I am willing to pay 500 silver coins and the rank of sergeant."

The temporarily recruited militia has a collection. The power of trophies. In this team with few guards and many militiamen, officers have to pay more to buy trophies if they want.

In fact, the relationship between the Guard and the militia is more like a cooperative relationship than a subordinate relationship.

This relationship created a strange battle phenomenon, that is, in addition to combat ships, the fleet was also followed by real merchant ships.

Those merchant ships provide shipping services, trophy sales services, and even common commodity sales and entertainment and erotic services.

Of course, these services all cost money. As long as they have money, merchant ships will provide all services to the fleet, including the service of recovering special lives at high prices.

The captain of the fleet is worried that fishermen secretly sell their special lives to merchant ships.

Therefore, he wanted to make the fishermen realize that they were engaged in a war of honor, not normal commercial fishing, by increasing their money and military ranks.

In the end, the colonel's wish was not fulfilled. Only three of the five captured fishmen boarded his flagship alive, and the other two dead were secretly sold to merchant ships by fishermen.

Because the merchant ship said that they were willing to pay 600 silver coins to buy it even if it was dead, the fishermen had to respect the dignity of silver coins.

In a fishing battle, the fishermen stole the show and won the recognition of both sailors and businessmen.

But after landing, these fishermenWithout the bravery at sea, they had to rely on the guards soldiers to push the artillery to boost morale.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

The sound of continuous artillery continued to be heard, and the members of the Blood Red Church hidden in the island cave finally recalled the artillery. of majesty.

Under the cover of artillery, the sailors rushed into the cave and captured the members of the Blood Red Church one by one.

"Where is Blackhand Barry?"

"The leader led all the fishmen out to sea."

"Well, it seems that we let the most out of control before. A valuable big fish."

A fisherman asked how much the big fish named Barry was worth, and the captain of the fleet casually replied that it was worth at least two hundred gold coins.

He didn’t know the consequences of his answer. From today on, there was suddenly a legend of a golden fish king in Burnie Port.

This not only caused fishermen to actively explore offshore fishing grounds, but also indirectly contributed to the coastal blockade against fishmen.

With the end of the landing war, the accompanying caravan returned to the port area first.

They took out the purchased murloc corpses and displayed them in a high-profile manner, indicating that the fleet had achieved a great victory.

The reason behind their high profile is that they are waiting for the Governor to buy back the fishman corpses at a high price.

But they are probably going to be disappointed. Their governor is still hiding in the neighboring city of Salo to enjoy himself and has no time to come back to buy fishmen.

"Is that an evil extraterrestrial life? It is simply too evil. Such evil beings are never allowed to exist in the sea."

The simple-minded fisherman saw the appearance of the fishman Afterwards, a strong sense of crisis arose.

Ordinary citizens saw the excitement, the fishermen saw the career crisis, and Zhou Weide saw the morphological structure of the fish-men.

He saw not only scales on the dead fishman's skin, but also transparent mucus dripping from time to time.

This means that the fishmen are not only fish-like creatures in appearance, but their genes have also been changed, and their secretion systems have also been transformed into fish structures.

"In-depth changes at the genetic level, how can the spiritual world ensure the universality of genetic debugging."

If there is only one fishman, no matter how debugging is done in the spiritual world, it will be normal.

But these fishmen are obviously a small group, and each of them has different genes.

It is impossible for the spirit world to provide every fish-man with a privately customized service. It is more likely to have a highly adaptable genetic template.

In Zhou Weide's opinion, this situation is more like a memetic infection. Memes are contagious, mutable, and selective, and fishmen are all in line with these conditions.

Of course, infectivity and variability must be separated. Many infected individuals will not mutate throughout their lives.

The real factor that determines variability is selectivity, that is, the person in charge of the meme has the right to choose which infectious agents mutate.

From this perspective, the impact of the spiritual world on Byron's world is more like the mutual infection between different supernatural viruses, aiming to cultivate mutant strains or super viruses.

"Fortunately, I don't have psychic vision, otherwise I might have seen an extremely distorted world of mycelial viruses."

Zhou Weide has seen different distortions in the dream world. It is also difficult for monsters to adapt to a rotten world covered by fungi.

This kind of situation doesn’t seem to make any difference when placed in a petri dish in the laboratory, but actually living in it is another matter.

After all, it is human genetic instinct to pursue the beauty of order, and the distortion of disorder will indeed pollute human reason.

"The fleet should get more records from the spirit world. It seems that I need to borrow them."

Zhou Weide thought about taking the opportunity to check the information about the spirit world and the command of the fleet. Colonel Guan Lan had the same idea.

However, due to the possible contamination of extraordinary information, he did not check the collected information himself, but had the ship's chaplain screen and review it.

"Colonel, there are indeed problems with the information about the spirit world. The dangers of spirit world rituals are relatively small and are controlled rituals of soul sacrifice.

Blood Red City The danger is impossible to estimate. I can't tell you specific information, but I can tell you that it involves the concept of 'invitation'."

"If you don't trust me, you can find other churches. Pastor’s verification.

Any pastor with a systematic theological education can see the danger of the Blood Red City.”

“Pastor Ian, we have been working together for more than ten years. , of course I trust you.

You mean that the spirit world can be explored, but it is best not to touch the blood-red city?"

"Yes, but the ritual node in Barry's hand is connected to the blood-red city. city, so opportunities and crises coexist.”
