Chapter 903 Experiments in Small Ecosystems
Author: Coke needs to add sugar
However, in the performance of the simulation, there is a certain probability that some people will be affected by genetic modification. To be on the safe side, Xu You decided not to let them undergo genetic modification.
After completing these verification tasks, Xu You also shared the results with Lin Shi immediately.
"That's great. As a result, Blue Star will give birth to many people with extraordinary abilities. But, teacher, there is one thing I don't quite understand."
"Well, tell me, Lin Shi."
"After these people complete the genetic modification, what help will they have in fighting the Proxima Centauri civilization? If their strength is only enhanced, it will not be able to fight against powerful technology."
Lin Shi's meaning is very obvious. In the face of powerful technology, human power does not have much significance.
A strong man cannot defeat ordinary people with thermal weapons. In the face of technology, brute force has become meaningless.
"Indeed, if it is just an ordinary power awakening, this will not bring any help. But this is the first step we must take. Even if the results are very little at the beginning, after time settles, we will definitely
It will have a very important impact.”
Lin Shi half understood Xu You's explanation, but she still tried hard to understand the meaning of Xu You's words.
"According to my previous predictions, most of these first batch of genetically modified people will only gain attributes such as increased strength and physical strengthening. However, as long as we continue to study this mechanism, we can use it better in the future.
These abilities..."
At this point, Xu You's conversation changed.
"Of course, just increasing strength and strengthening the body may not necessarily mean some useless abilities. Just imagine, if the human body is strengthened to the point where it can fight against thermal weapons head-on, or it can go to heaven and escape without using any technological equipment.
If you have the ability, then you don’t have to worry about these problems anymore.”
Listening to Xu You's words, Lin Shi's expression kept changing.
"Is it possible to have a head-on confrontation with thermal weapons...is it really a human being? Is this a technological force?"
"Biology itself is a type of science and technology. In fact, there is no essential difference between modified human beings and advanced technological equipment. Human beings themselves are very precise instruments. Even quantum computers are not as powerful as human beings when combined.
Have stronger abilities.”
Nowadays, humans can create all kinds of powerful equipment, but they still cannot create any new creatures, which proves how complex creatures are.
After Xu You's explanation, Lin Shi basically felt the importance of genetic modification.
"Teacher, in addition to power-based powers, what other types of powers do you think there are?"
"Well...for example, the strengthening of brain power can have faster calculation ability than adults. The strengthening of mental power can have stronger perception ability. Or it can be similar to the strengthening of elemental system, like eels, it can send out electric shocks, etc.
wait……"
Xu You proposed many types of superpowers at once, and Lin Shi was stunned for a moment.
Many of the types of superpowers Xu You mentioned are in some science fiction novels and science fiction movies, but Xu You also gave a lot of scientific basis, making this not just a science fiction imagination.
"Lin Shi, what I want to try now is to directionally allow creatures to produce some elemental enhancements. For example, creatures like fire-breathing dragons, do you think they have really ever existed in the world?"
"Charizard...there shouldn't be such a creature..."
In some human literary works, there are various creatures with magical abilities, but Lin Shi feels that this ability does not quite meet scientific standards.
"The ability to breathe fire may seem magical, but it is not as powerful as imagined. Humans can freely control fire, which in the eyes of other creatures is equivalent to a super power to control fire. If a creature
If you use this ability directly, it will have some negative effects on your body."
After all, the temperature of the flame can range from a few hundred degrees Celsius to more than a thousand degrees Celsius. Such a high temperature can be said to be a kind of ability that can damage the enemy by one thousand and oneself by eight hundred.
There is no living thing in nature that can withstand such a strong high temperature without causing any negative reactions of itself.
"Unless... this creature has other abilities that can withstand the effects of high temperatures. But I don't think that such a strange creature can evolve in the evolution of nature."
"Yes, according to my inference, creatures that can make fire have indeed evolved in nature, but because the negative effects of this ability were too strong, this ability was eventually eliminated by nature. Now, I hope to be able to
An experiment to optimize this fire-breathing ability."
"Experiment? Teacher, do you mean that these small ecosystems we built are actually huge laboratories?"
"Yes, I plan to conduct such an experiment in the newly constructed small ecosystem. We will put monkeys and dinosaurs together to see if monkeys can adapt to this era if they are placed directly in the Jurassic.
Survived successfully."
Hearing Xu You's words, Lin Shi also had an expression of disbelief.
"I know this experiment sounds a bit cruel, but at this moment, we really don't care about so much. This universe is inherently very cruel, and only creatures that adapt to the environment can survive on the planet. And when they face
When dealing with more powerful intelligent creatures from aliens, the ability to adapt to the environment is not even enough. Only when you are strong enough to dominate the environment can you be qualified to survive in higher dimensions."
"Teacher, I understand what you are thinking. Proxima Centauri is like the dinosaurs in the Jurassic Period, and we are like monkeys thrown into the Jurassic Period. If we just maintain the status quo, our final result will be to be defeated by the dinosaurs.
Eating it up mercilessly.”
"Yes, this is the current situation. Facing powerful dinosaurs, monkeys have two main choices. One is to escape from this environment and hide in an environment without dinosaurs. The other is to strengthen itself and let the monkeys
Become more powerful until you have the strength to fight the dinosaurs."
…………
In the following time, Xu You started such an experiment as promised.
The newly constructed ecosystem, everything is in accordance with Jurassic standards, has a variety of dinosaurs and various other creatures in the Jurassic.
