    Today we're sort of continuing on from last video, by this time looking at whether the Hunters are immune to the Flood. It might seem like a weird species to talk about in regards to the Flood, but their biological make up may give them some significant advantages over other species...

    So in regard to why the Lekgolo were on the Alpha shard, I've had some thoughts on that. The Lekgolo were used in some manner as an attempt to stop the Flood. At some point the Forerunners would have had to test this. We know Halos were used for Flood research and to store species. So, what if the experiments where Forerunners tried to battle the Flood with Lekgolo were carried out on Installation 04?
    I still couldn't tell you why the Forerunners left the Lekgolo there, but it explains why they were there in the first place.

    • @northernleigonare
      @northernleigonare 6 лет назад +35

      I don't think they had the time to test on them because they were probably too busy designing weapons to combat the flood or they were just extinct at the time. Also its really cool to see you here Halo Cannon.. i mean i love your videos but i never thought you'd take interest in other peoples XD

    • @HaloCanon
      @HaloCanon 6 лет назад +60

      The Forerunners certainly did run tests. They were constantly looking for other ways to combat the Flood, anything that didn't involve the Halos being fired. As has been said, "1000 other plans were tried and failed"
      And yeah, I regularly watch other Halo channels, even if I don't always comment. Always like hearing what other people think :)

      I thought the worms in Nightfall where remnants of the covenant that survived on the halo ring after it's destruction by the pillar of autumn. Being on that ring shard with no food and with such harsh conditions must have made them become less domesticated, more feral, and likely would result to caniblisum for any worms that died of starvation or was too weak to serve the colony, which would explain why they would still be around over the years.

  • @shaibalchowdhury1246

    Virtually any creature can be infected to become a combat form, but the most frequently-used hosts are Sangheili, humans and Jiralhanae. Unggoy and Kig-Yar can be used as combat forms, but this is uncommon due to their weaker body structure. A small number of species are known to be immune to conversion, including the Mgalekgolo/Lekgolo (which are composed of boneless worms that do not have a central nervous system), the Yanme'e, whose exoskeleton lacks the required amount of calcium which renders infection impossible, and the Huragok which is an artificial organism, and therefore believed to be immune.

    • @photosyntheticzee9915
      @photosyntheticzee9915 6 лет назад +15

      Is it the exoskeleton? Because that wouldn't stop the spores. Also, in one of the books, (primordium?) a forerunner witnesses a test-firing of a halo ring, and it reduces a biologically rich world to being home to nothing more complex than moss and bacteria, neither of which have nervous systems. I would be inclined to believe that everything more complex than that is capable of at least being infected by flood spores.

    I disagree. Flood require a central nervous system to infect. Aka a brain and spine. Lekegolo lack both.
    Yes biomass is still an option. But that's not really infecting at that point.

    • @paynevess8822
      @paynevess8822 4 года назад +9

      Nah, lack of a spinal column does not = lack of a nervous system. Your spinal column is just a bone grouping with a central nerve running through it. And I also don't see how the LekGolo don't have brains. Nervous systems are kinda moot if there is no brain. Futhermore, even if a single flood spore were to enter something, it would still be considered infected, expecially if that things ends up fully converted into flood biomass. Remember that even though SGT Johnson was able to resist a flood infection form on Alpha Halo, he was still infected. After returning to Alpha base and getting checked, it was observed that some of his dna had been shuffled, a sign that he had in fact been exposed and went through only the beginning stages of being converted into either a combat form or biomass.

    Asteroids CANNOT have an atmospere of their own due to ther weak gravity and the worms can live with no problem where Humans can't breathe (the nuked remainder of Installation 04A, for example).

    I personally always assumed they breathed through their skin. I also think if they are able to be infected, they'd act as some sort of infection form, slithering in groups up to a host, subduing them until one can force its way inside and infect the target. The rest possibly forming some sort of organic armour.

    All things considered, the neural connection between worms could stay intact after being infected. Like, the Lekgolo are essentially just hiveminds of worms, so one could trick the others into staying on board, and could convert the others by releasing spores through their connection.

      @@tavianarmstrong974 Technically he’s right, Prometheans are hardlight/mechanized forms piloted by digitalized minds of whoever got whammed by a Composer. Nothing organic to get infected by the Flood Supercell. I assume either the Lekgolo is either too difficult to infect normally, or has some kind of ability to prevent infection that hasn’t been shown....or the Flood is pulling the same trick again and pretending the Lekgolo is immune.

    Like you said in the Spartan video, the flood has all of the knowledge and brain-power that the host has when it gets infected. This might mean that if all of the worms of a hunter were infected, they would still know how to work together to be a hunter, they would just be controlled by the flood.

    Somewhat late on this. But if there was any possibility of the flood infecting and taking control of lekgolo worms, and still be able to maintain a combat viable form, then theoretically they could infect a scarab. Seeing as how those are essentially just much larger lekgolo colonies, just with a lot more technology involved.

      ⚠️ Extremely long comment below:
      I think Halo Legends was written by different people.
      Different people, different story.
      We never saw the Flood invade Harvest during the Covenant scourge and the UNSC never fought with the Covenant in the normal Halo.
      Also, High Charity being infected, in Halo Legends, was started with crashing phantoms, contrary to the Halo 2 scene where UNSC Pelicans drop flood forms out of them.
      Halo Legends is supposed to be a representation of the past events where Master Chief fought.
      You can say these are the memories of Cortana which are becoming unstable due to the logic plague seeded in her.
      We don’t see the Huragok being infected by the Flood because usually, they implode, reducing the fact of being infected in the first place, and the Prophet Of Regret being killed by Arbiter (Thel’ Vadamee) in High Charity which never happened (Regret was killed and infected in Installation 05-Delta Halo not High Charity.
      If you still don’t get this, then here’s another thing. You know the Prophet Of Mercy, we never saw him infected whilst the Arbiter was there. Only Chief (S-117) did, which he killed the Infection Form latching on to Mercy proving that the scene is, possibly, non-canonical. Hunters don’t appear to be vulnerable to Infection through traditional means. That scene could have been a Pure Form or a Combat Form, excluding Hunters.
      Just my opinion though...

      The hunters are not a hive mind. They are a collective mind. A bunch of worms, fueled by instinct, gather to create something smarter. The Flood are a bunch of organisms under an overarching authority- a Gravemind, that controls the Flood. It's debatable whether the Thanolekgolo from Nightfall are even completely sentient in the first place, as they seem to only munch on electronics. But then again, they did form into a human, so maybe they are.

(SInce ya know, scarabs are just ALOT of Lekgolo with some armor plating and weapon systems to hold them in place.)
