Zeebetites are the life-support system of Mother Brain, providing the necessary organic nutrients and flushing out waste matter. It is for this reason she is called the “Mechanical Life-Veinâ€. The actual Zeebetite is contained within a thick glass-like organic membrane that will shrink and swell based on the health of the Zeebetite. The membrane will also reflect any beam attacks, and can only be destroyed by missiles. Zeebetites will regenerate when damaged and can only be completely destroyed by severing the connection. They also serve as a barrier to Mother Brain’s lair and are heavily defended by Rinkas and laser turrets.
