my cell game

Page 110

In the game, the columnar cells were still waiting. Suddenly, under the epithelium of the small intestine, a cell covered with tentacles received instructions to extrude a large number of information molecules towards the columnar cells.

"I know those are tentacles, they are nerve cells! Tentacles are dendrites, which are used to transmit nerve media."

"The sophomore biology will report."

"It's so fucking realistic, the nerve cells are the mastermind behind everything."

"Nerve cells tell you that nerve cells are the most important."

After receiving instructions from nerve cells, thousands of columnar cells spit out a large amount of mucus outside the mucosa.

The main component of these mucus is enteropeptidase, which enters the small intestine and mixes with other substances to form small intestinal juice, which is injected into food and participates in the digestion of food.

Under the joint action of small intestinal juice, bile and stomach acid, the food in the small intestine begins to break down into tiny fragments, which are small molecular substances that can be directly absorbed by cells.

The upper mucous membrane is like an hourglass, filtering fine substances through the mucous membrane and falling in from outside the mucous membrane, like a downpour.

The underlying epithelial cells get busy as the bulk of the material falls.

Players can clearly see that the epithelial cells are distributed on the network of small blood vessels, dotted all over.

After the nutrients fall, they are caught by the network of tiny blood vessels.Epithelial cells bustle on the vascular network, breaking down all digestible material and transporting it to the capillaries.

These capillaries bring blood carrying a large amount of nutrients to the arteries, providing Jiang Zuo's body with a steady stream of energy.

With the arrival of food, the entire small intestine comes to life from its slumber.

The entire small intestine is busy, with a large number of cells busy back and forth at their jobs.

Some epithelial cells exchange information when they are not busy.

In a player's live broadcast room, a conversation between two epithelial cells was recorded:

These two epithelial cells were busy carrying food, and one of them complained: "Hey, what's going on recently, there is a lot less food falling down."

The other echoed: "Yes, yes, it is more than half less than usual. I have much less nutrients to support other cells."

"Where did those nutrients go?"

"I don't know, I guess it's used somewhere. I asked the nerve cells, and they said that there is nothing abnormal recently."

"That's very strange."

The conversation between the two cells was very brief, and Jiang Zuo happened to be watching this live broadcast room.After hearing the communication of the cells, Jiang Zuo frowned unconsciously.

Much less nutritious?impossible.

I don't know why in the past two days, my food intake has increased greatly, and I eat four or five times more than usual.

It stands to reason that the supply should be sufficient, how could it be more than half less than usual?

Judge upgrade?This does not seem to be the reason.

When I went from level 0 to level 1, my appetite didn't change much. How could I increase my food intake several times when I went from level 1 to level 3?

If this is the case, then the 10th-level inquisitor should stop doing anything every day, and there is not enough to eat with two mouths at the same time.

What is wrong with your body?

Jiang Zuo was suddenly worried.Where did all the energy that went into his body go?It will definitely not disappear out of thin air, the only possibility is to be consumed by something.

What consumes so much energy?

Jiang Zuo was lost in thought.

In the game, in addition to the hard work of the original cells, a large number of intestinal microorganisms also participated in this "battle".Among them, the number of bifidobacteria and lactic acid bacteria is the largest.

Not all the food that falls can be directly absorbed by the cells, and there are many foods that need to be decomposed by these microorganisms before they can enter the blood circulation of the human body.

In one corner, the lactic acid bacteria clump together and begin to wriggle around a clump of food scraps.

It was a mass of lactose, in a crystalline form like a snowflake.At most, the digestive juices will break down some foods into lactose, and then there's nothing they can do, leaving the microbes to do the rest.

Several players gathered in the past to watch the work of lactic acid bacteria.

In this regard, lactic acid bacteria did not reject it.From the perspective of lactic acid bacteria, this group of source cells cannot release lactase, cannot digest lactose, and will not compete for their food.

If the same lactase-releasing bacteria came, maybe the lactic acid bacteria would fight each other for a while.

Lactic acid bacteria lie on the lactose, with little protein crystals falling from the tail.These crystals are lactase.

After the combination of lactase and lactose, the immobile lactose melts quickly like a snowdrift under the summer sun, fermenting into a puddle of lactic acid.

The place where the cells live is surrounded by body fluids. After the lactose is converted into lactic acid, it is quickly washed away by body fluids.

The lactic acid bacteria watched their hard work being washed away by the water. They didn't even care about the players around them, and hurriedly collected a little bit of poor lactic acid.

The washed away lactic acid will enter Jiang Zuo's body through the exchange of blood and body fluids.

Jiang Zuo and these microorganisms in the intestines are mostly in a mutualistic and symbiotic relationship. Jiang Zuo provides raw materials for the microorganisms, and the microorganisms decompose part of the food for Jiang Zuo.The way of stomach and intestines, coexist in harmony.

Sometimes, the existence of these microorganisms will directly or indirectly lead to the feeding habits of the host.

The reason why cattle and sheep can eat grass is not because the cells in their bodies can decompose cellulose, but because there is a group of bacteria that can decompose cellulose in their intestines.

Of course, in Jiang Zuo's intestines, there is no flora that can decompose cellulose.Not only Jiang Zuo, but human intestines and stomachs do not have cellulose-decomposing bacteria.

Otherwise, it is estimated that there will be more bark and grass in the human diet.

At this moment, a lot of straw-like cellulose is falling from the vascular network of the small intestine.

Other foods like lactose, once dropped, will be surrounded by a bunch of bacteria and cells; compared to the lively scene around those foods, the surroundings of cellulose are much deserted.

Straw-like cellulose falls on the grid, and no bacteria or cells want to touch it, like a pile of fallen leaves on the sidewalk, and no one pays attention to these grass blades except sanitation workers who sweep them up.

Players joined this "battle" one after another as if they had found a treasure, burying their heads in picking up "straws" on the grid.

When the cells passing by saw these source cells, they paid more attention to them, and then they didn't care anymore.

"Where did these cells come from? Have you seen them?"

"I haven't seen it, and it's the first time I've seen it. Maybe it's a new bacteria."

"Don't hang up so much, it's not something we should worry about. They don't care about macrophages, so what do we care about?"

Several cells exchanged a few words and returned to their respective jobs.

During this period, a few white blood cells swimming in the blood passed by the player, approaching the player for a while to recognize it.

The source cells used by the player can exist in the body for a long time, so there is naturally a way to escape the recognition of the cells.Soon, the white blood cells judged that the source cells were harmless cells, and hurried away to other places.

Every time the food comes, it is also the time for the invasion of foreign bacteria.Some bacteria and viruses can escape the corrosion of gastric acid, mix into food, and invade the small intestine, which requires white blood cells to solve.

Not long after, a group of eosinophils, under the protection of macrophages, hurried past the player, rushing towards a certain place.

Eosinophils, this is the second time players have seen them.The first time they're seen is when the injectors show up, the player pleads for help from the eosinophils, but they ignore them.

"In a day or two, you encountered so many white blood cells? No, there must be a problem! Brother, let's go and have a look." "Please.

"Please kill me first." Although he doesn't know much about creatures, after playing the game for so long, he must know a lot about the NPCs in the game.Understand the habits, skills, etc. of nc, this is a compulsory course for online game players.

As far as he knows, the number of white blood cells in the human body is not too much, let alone eosinophils, which only account for a few percent of the total white blood cells.

Other white blood cells, such as neutrophils, basophils, and lymphocytes, have never been encountered by players since the server was launched. Only eosinophils have only entered the new map for a day or two. It's been two times, and it's still a group of people.

Things went wrong, eosinophils are used to deal with parasites, and the number increased sharply in a short period of time, maybe there are some hidden tasks waiting for players!

With this mentality, "Please kill me first" without hesitation mobilized a valuable manpower to find out the situation.

More than a dozen members of the Pioneers and Pioneers stayed on the new map, picking up cellulose.Hearing the order from the head of the army, the vice-captain of the ten-member team took the initiative to follow, while the other dozen people stayed where they were and continued to pick up cellulose.

The deputy captain followed behind the white blood cells, silently listening to their conversations.The white blood cells were in a hurry, paying no attention to the deputy captain following behind.

Chapter 2 and Six Roundworm Eggs (3/4)

Among this group of white blood cells, one of the slightly larger eosinophils asked, "Are you sure? Is it a foreign parasite?"

"Not sure, but probably yes. A cell has reported the situation, let's go and see." The macrophage said.

"It's really troublesome. There are too many things in the intestines recently." The eosinophil complained: "I don't have enough manpower. I have to go back and urge the lymph nodes to bring me more cells."

The deputy captain listened silently from behind. It seemed that eosinophils were very busy recently.

"Write down this situation, take the initiative to go up and communicate with NC." Outside, "please.

The vice-captain's id is "Jiang He", he is a level 17 player.

Level 17, which was really high in the previous week, belongs to advanced players.But after the battle with the Three Kings, after occupying the entire territory of the liver, level 17 is a little bit out of reach, and the player's level has risen to above level 20, and level 17 is at best a novice in the legion.

"Please kill me first" is a veritable senior player. Regarding the words of the army leader, "Jiang He" did not hesitate at all, and immediately followed the army leader's wishes.

Jiang He speeded up and squeezed into the circle of white blood cells.

The white blood cells didn't pay attention to this source cell at first, but when they saw the source cell actively squeezed over, a macrophage in the periphery tried to stop "Jiang He".

"Military duties are being carried out, and irrelevant cells are forbidden to approach."

Three options appeared in front of "Jiang He":

[Option [-]: Hello, I am the source cell, is there anything I can do?

Option Two: Sorry, I didn't mean to, I'm leaving now.

Option [-]: Why do I need to ask you to explain what I do in my life. 】

There are different ways to communicate with different cells.Some cells have nothing to do and can chat with players, but like this kind of macrophages that perform tasks, when players communicate with them, different dialog boxes will appear to simplify the dialogue.

This is also an important link in Shu Ran's updated task system-probability triggers different dialogue modes.

The three options are time-limited, with only five seconds for the player to choose.

"Jiang He" didn't hesitate, and backhandedly clicked on the third option, which was impossible.

The drawn swords in the first game faced each other. "Jiang He" still has business to do, not to mention that he can't attack friendly cells, and can only be chased and beaten by friendly troops.

He chose the first option.

"Oh? What kind of cell are you? You can't help with the tasks here, so leave quickly." The macrophage said.

Three options appeared in front of "Jiang He":

[Option [-]: I'll leave now

Option [-]: Can I follow along?

Option [-]: It is not up to you whether to leave or not.Ask about the sword in my hand before talking! 】

Decisively the second item.

"Oh? Since you want to see it so much, come with me. Don't delay your work." After the macrophage finished speaking, he turned and followed the white blood cell group, motioning for "Jiang He" to follow.

At this time, three options popped up in front of "Jiang He":

[NC is facing away from you, don't you want to take the opportunity to do something?

Option One: Assassination

Option two: put it down

Option Three: Stealing]

Assassination?Sneak attack? "Jiang He" was speechless for a while, this plan is very bad, if I didn't know the content of the game like the back of the back of the hand, knowing that friendly NCs can't attack, I would really have been fooled by the dog's plan.

I'm afraid the planner is crazy because he wants to earn resurrection fees?

Jiang Zuo outside also looked at Shu Ran suspiciously.

Shu Ran yawned, and said indifferently: "It's nothing, it's just to make it more interesting. Aren't you going to choose cannon fodder, and help you screen the players' IQ by the way."

Judging by Shu Ran's appearance, there are many similar "IQ traps" in the game.Full of tricks.

That's right, what Boss Jiang needs is qualified cannon fodder. If he falls for this small trap, and his mind is full of fighting and killing, Boss Jiang has to consider whether he will lose money if he invests.

In the game, "Jiang He" avoided the trap planned by the dog by virtue of his keen perception.

However, the first two items must not be selected, what about the third item?theft?Probably won't be killed.

"Inadvertently," Jiang He chose the option of stealing.

As the "steal" option started, the source cell of "Jianghe" approached the macrophage uncontrollably, and the cell membrane lightly touched the macrophage membrane, sticking a piece of protein on the macrophage membrane to itself.

[Congratulations, the theft was successful and you obtained "a piece of abnormal antigen".Please make persistent efforts and strive to be beaten to death as soon as possible! 】

"Jianghe":

This is the first time a player has stolen something from a white blood cell nc.
