The Drones pollinate the aboveground Flowers and avoid self-breeding as You watch the check-up finish. The Weak Human is in poor shape. clearly, and through signals, You come to understand it is malnourished and nearly starving.
Given its near-death state, You try to Whisper to the Weak Human. She starts shrieking and doesn't stop, eyes wide open. Clearly, that idea didn't work. You try to whisper to the Intoxicated Human, and that doesn't work either. The Intoxicated Human is still
tripping serious balls under the influence and appears to be not even halfway through the trip.
Stampy makes loud mouth-noises at the Insane Human. You look at Stampy, and he makes the "kill" gesture again.
This time, You send a drone to retrieve a Human Low-Caliber and some ammunition, and suggest to Stampy that it really sounds like his problem to solve, not Ours. The Drone hands him the weapon, and he promptly takes it, aims on the Insane Human, and puts two rounds neatly through her head. The screaming stops. He blows on the barrel, triggers a non-firing mechanism, and offers the weapon back to You. Well, it wouldn't have done him much good anyway, but a captive who chooses to not attempt to harm its captors has SOME level of intelligence. Perhaps Stampy is a Level 3 Soldier Drone. You refuse to take the weapon, and leave, a Drone carrying the body. It should be an interesting experiment, and the Soldier in the room could easily kill Stampy if he tried anything. He makes mouth-noises at the Human Queen and extends his middle digit in the air. A mating ritual, possibly. The Human Queen makes two mouth-noises, and You realize that her first mouth-noise and Stampy's third-mouth noise were "fuck". Many humans have been making this mouth-noise.
You consider asking Stampy what a "fuck" is, but decide to ask later. Possibly some strange deity of their species. You suggest to him that the Queen can grow your Flowers, and Stampy makes a strange mouth-noise and the pleased expression before shaking his head "no" without even asking. Clearly, the Queen wants nothing to do with helping you, and Stampy finds it pointless to ask.
Regardless, You leave and get to work on a Bacteria Vat for the Synthesizer. As the device relies upon bacterial action and chemical processes, the best way You have to improve it is to add a stage and interface with the Molecular Assembler to cultivate the bacteria and kill the incorrect ones. The Hive fairly buzzes with activity as the Tech Drone designs a Stealth Scout Fighter while overseeing the production of the Vehicle Bay. It completes before You do, and the Drone orders a full assembly of Mechanical LSD's before returning to his design.
You finish the Vat and hook it in with some Drones; the assembly completes an hour before the food is delivered, and We recieve 4 Units of Standard-Quality Synthetic Food as well as another unit of Queen's Pollen. The Seeds have grown into Sporifers and all of the laid eggs have hatched. No Larvae have developed yet, although the Predator is getting large and restless.
You reflect upon Your nature. The eggs will bear a mixture of Your traits and those of the Drone in question. If you do not have such a trait, half of the eggs will have the trait and half will not. Each Drone fertilizes an appropriate portion of your Eggs, so half will share traits with You and the Spy Drone, while the other half will share traits with You and the Tech Drone. Eggs are designated as Eggs to indicate their immaturity; as they grow, they become more developed. Incidentally, You feel the need to lay or absorb
all of your eggs before fertilization. Reproduction is imperative.
The surface pollen was used in pollinating the surface plants.
You did not investigate the Substation. It is probably beyond repair and recovery, but there may be some machines to gather and Human Food Seeds to get. The presence in your mind of the Flowers seems to be excited by this.
The Commander Drone is the most intelligent of the basic drones, with its own voice, the ability to lead other Drones (especially in the field of its Mother), and with a very limited breeding capability on its own. Like its predecessors, the Commander can harvest elements from anything it can eat or breathe, is poisonous, and otherwise the pinnacle of Our race without Royal Jelly.
Yes, You are poisonous, and harvest elements, too. You note to update your inventory and status with the list of developed technology, and note You may have forgotten to list something.
