Chapter 154 Dinner, the whole city is on alert
It was already approaching dusk, and the lights in the manor were lighting up one after another.
At the open-air restaurant, a banquet for Kane was underway.
A dozen manor maids wearing black and white maid uniforms shuttled between the chef's stove and the dining table.
The delicacies were delivered on silver platters to the specially customized widened and thickened oak dining table.
Tang Song naturally sat at the top of the dining table, with Ryan on his left.
Ryan sat down in order: Skye, Fox, and Selina.
On the right is Kane, and next to Kane are Professor Connors, Sloan, and Lucian.
Two little girls, Goo Ja-yoon and Jung Da-eun, sat at the end of the long oak table, one on each side.
It can be said that in order to clean up Kane's fortune this time, Tang and Song called the people in charge of various industries.
It is obvious from the seating arrangement how highly the two brothers Lane and Kane were valued in the hearts of the Tang and Song Dynasties.
Even more than several of his women.
However, among the people present, even a few women from Tang and Song Dynasties did not complain about this seating arrangement.
The two brothers Kane and Lane can be said to be the earliest confidants who followed Tang and Song Dynasties.
During the Tang and Song dynasties, perhaps only the mistress of the manor could outdo them in terms of status.
But at this table, no one can be called the mistress of this manor.
According to the customs in the Federation, Skye, Fox and Selina are said to be mistresses, but more like Boss Tang's mistress.
Tang and Song would raise glasses from time to time, and occasionally say a few words to ask about Kane's situation in East Africa.
Clinking glasses with Kane and Ryan next to him, he raised his glasses towards the others at the table.
Under his leadership, the entire table mingled with each other.
Soon most of the Romanee-Conti bottles in the five decanters were gone.
One after another delicious food was brought to the table by the maid like running water, and everyone was enjoying eating and drinking.
The only exception may be Selena. The goblet in front of her is filled with bright red liquid. Although she raises it from time to time to drink the "red wine" along with everyone else's wine.
But he didn’t touch a bite of the food on the table.
Tang Song saw this and put down the glass of red wine, his eyes falling on Professor Connors.
"Professor, where is the progress of Perfect Blood?"
"ah?"
On the tamarisk sticks, there are alternately fat and thin pieces of meat, and the chef has a good grasp of the heat.
Professor Connors seems to like these Middle Eastern-style kebabs very much. He skewers them with one hand and his mouth is full of oil.
Hearing Tang Song's question, he quickly put down the skewers in his hand.
He took out the tissue on the table and wiped the corners of his mouth.
"We analyzed the Perfect Blood,
It was found that this gene is a mutation that occurs after being stimulated by a virus.
Generally speaking, the probability of such a genetic mutation producing such a perfect effect is one in hundreds of millions.
It’s very difficult to artificially reproduce this mutation!”
"But we combined the perfect blood with the alien genes, and the two created a new species with greater adaptability.
This species is more adaptable, and the DNA chain in the body is not afraid of the high-temperature current on the zero gene chain.
We combined the DNA chain of this species with the gene chain of Experimental Subject Zero, and successfully created a new type of life form!
This creature possesses Zero's super resilience, takes the form of a three-headed dragon, and its three heads can spit out lightning storms at the same time..."
"The experiment was successful! Why didn't you notify me?"
After listening to Professor Connors' words, Tang Song interrupted Connors' words and looked at Professor Connors with eyes as sharp as a knife.
A person in charge of such an important experimental project did not report a major breakthrough in the project.
Professor Connors' behavior reminded Tang and Song of the Parkers who once worked for the Osborne Group and the unlucky Norman Osborne.
"Boss, I didn't deliberately hide the progress of the experiment, but the defects of the experimental subject were too obvious. I wanted to wait until the experiment was successful before reporting to you!"
Professor Connors' eyes made contact with Tang Song's eyes, and his mind couldn't help but think of the scene when the shape-shifter exploded into blood mist, and he quickly explained.
"Experimental body defects? Please explain them carefully?" Tang Song became interested.
The sound of clinking wine glasses and voices on the entire dining table seemed to be a few decibels quieter.
Everyone looked at Professor Connors.
Recreating the three-headed dragon Ghidorah through gene transcription to create a three-headed dragon serum like lizard serum was a project that the Tang and Song Dynasties valued very much.
It can be said that the entire Hive Laboratory, whether it is research on perfect blood or aliens, serves this project.
Now there is a breakthrough in the experiment, although Professor Connors said that the experimental body has obvious flaws.
But compared to the last time, when he personally operated in the laboratory, the situation was obviously much better when the experimental cells could not withstand the Ghidorah gene chain.
Professor Connors described the experiment in detail to Boss Tang:
"Boss, you should know that according to Hayflik's limit theorem, cells in the human body will die due to self-produced toxins after dividing 52 times.
Theoretically, "52 times" is the limit for human cells to divide themselves and maintain the body's metabolic cycle.
However, after the fusion of the perfect blood and the alien gene, the new gene chain produced after the successful fusion of the zero gene, the number of cell end divisions is greatly reduced..."
"How much has it been reduced?" Tang Song asked!
Professor Connors smiled bitterly: "The experimental subject only lived for three days from birth to death in the petri dish!"
"Isn't it because of genetic collapse?" Tang Song questioned!
The maximum number of divisions at the end of human cells gives humans a normal life span of 120 years.
For three days, Tang and Song felt that the experimental subject was more like death and the collapse of the gene chain.
Hearing Tang Song’s doubts, Professor Connors shook his head:
"We have tested the corpse of the experimental subject. Its gene chain is intact and all organs and tissues are normal. The cause of death is that the cell terminal division has reached its limit..."
"You just said that you wanted to wait until the experiment was successful before informing me. Do you have a way to solve this problem?"
"Boss, among our current experimental subjects, the only ones that can exceed the natural life span of the human body are vampires and werewolves.
However, once the two genes are combined with Gene Zero, it will trigger the high-intensity current on its gene chain..."
When talking about this topic, Professor Connors, a senior man in science and engineering, suddenly became energetic.
When he talked about werewolves and vampires, Selina and Lucien's faces were slightly unnatural.
"We tried many times, but the genes of both were incompatible with the zero gene, so I changed my mind!"
Professor Connors wanted to show off, but after seeing the calm eyes of Tang and Song, he smiled:
"I just thought that if I could divide the number of cell ends of the experimental subject, the experiment would be considered a success!"
"Ahem!"
Ryan, who was drinking red wine and listening with gusto, heard what Professor Connors said and choked on the red wine and coughed repeatedly.
Thanks to the mutant ability of the super brain, Ryan has four doctorates, including a doctorate in biology from the University of Munich.
He can naturally understand what Professor Connors said.
It was because he understood that he was shocked.
You must know that solving the problem of extreme cell division is biologically equivalent to breaking the forbidden zone of God.
This means that human life span has been greatly extended!
Professor Connors sounded like a counterfeiter who printed counterfeit money and couldn't get over the security mark on the U.S. dollar, and then got a slap on the head.
Let's capture the Federal Reserve's money printing plant and directly use the money printing machine in the money printing plant to print money.
"I'm fine, boss, you continue!"
Several people present looked at Ryan, and Ryan quickly waved his hands to indicate that there was no big problem.
"Boss, do you still remember the plant remains found in the Borneo python?"
"Xue Lan!" Tang Song looked at Professor Connors with a thoughtful expression.
"We have conducted experiments using the extract from this plant residue, which extended the survival time of the experimental subjects by one week from the original three days!"
Professor Connors said with some regret: "The plant remains found from the belly of this giant python are very few.
