Huang Binghua's voice began to tremble, and he took a deep breath and continued.
"The Nightmare Virus existed 35,000 years ago, and this human gene was one of the most important disease-resistant genes that protected human reproduction 35,000 years ago! The purpose of this gene's existence is to seal
Nightmare Gene.”
"But at a certain point in time, the nightmare virus suddenly disappeared, causing this gene to become a dispensable waste gene, so it slowly disintegrated during evolution, and then disappeared from the human genome piece by piece.
"
"For the same reason, I once had this gene in other animals, but it has evolved and lost sd0001 just like humans."
"Now that all living things have lost the protection of SD001, the return of the nightmare gene will be devastating."
Yu Tian was so shocked by this theory that he didn't speak for a long time, but although it contained mostly inferences and assumptions, Huang Binghua's theory was not without basis.
If all animals and humans had such genes 35,000 years ago, then the nightmare virus and nightmare genes would indeed be unable to reproduce and would have to be eliminated by nature.
But why did it suddenly appear again after being hidden for 35,000 years?
What is the cause and effect here?
No one knows, and there is no way to dig deeper, because in the context of global mutation, there is no doubt about such tracing.
What humans need is how to survive the ravages of the nightmare virus.
"Can the discovery of sd001 bring us any changes?" Yu Tian asked, this was what he cared about most.
Huang Binghua nodded solemnly: "Of course, if we can reversely deduce other missing genes in the sd genome based on the sd001 gene, we can develop targeted drugs to avoid the devastating mutations caused by the nightmare virus."
Yu Tian shook his head: "But I still don't understand. Isn't this thing just like the nightmare virus protective agent, which can only prevent infection. But what we need more now is the ability to protect ourselves in the face of mutants. Now the whole world is mutating.
Simple biological immunity can no longer keep us alive."
"Listen to me." Huang Binghua signaled Yu Tian to calm down: "Don't you understand that this thing can suppress the nightmare gene? This is the first method to suppress the nightmare virus from the genetic level.
.”
"This kind of suppression is all-round. It not only works on ordinary humans, but is also effective on evolved people, zombies, mutant beasts, and alien mutants. Do you understand what I mean now?"
Yu Tian's eyes widened and he suddenly took a breath: "You mean, this thing can be directly made into a weapon and injected into the body of a mutant, directly suppressing its nightmare virus gene, thus suppressing the combat ability of the entire mutant?"
"That's right!" Huang Binghua nodded: "I even think that if it is feasible, it is not impossible to even turn some zombies that have not completely lost their human form back into humans. For example."
"Cute!"
Yu Tian and Huang Binghua spoke in unison. Yu Tian suddenly realized: "Is Mengmeng's current change..."
Huang Binghua nodded: "Yes, Yunxiao City has privately begun injecting Mengmeng with genetic medicine made from the sd001 gene, but he is now controlling the variables and trying his best to suppress the nightmare virus while protecting Mengmeng's level 5 strength."
"We are trying to split the function of the nightmare gene into two. Keep the half of its function that strengthens the human body, while suppressing its negative effects that lead to devastating mutations."
"In this case, the nightmare gene will no longer be a double-edged sword, but will become a functional gene like other genes in the human genome."
"As long as we inject this gene into everyone in the form of a vaccine, and let it successfully take root in the human genome again, we can completely solve this apocalyptic trouble."
Yu Tian was excited.
If it can really be achieved to this extent, even if it is simply made into a genetic weapon, the demon hunter will have the ability to confront any mutant.
And this kind of weapon is equally useful even against evolved people.
The gene sequence of the SD family is definitely the biggest bargaining chip for future demon hunters!
Yu Tian grabbed Huang Binghua and said excitedly but cautiously: "This matter must be kept secret. It is best that only you and I know about it. Don't tell anyone, including Li Ruier's parents. I will arrange for Yun Feifei and Lin Qingya to take turns to protect Li Ruier.
Keep him safe."
"I understand that Li Ruier is the core of all our plans."
"I will make the medicine for the sd001 gene as soon as possible. Then you can try to combine it with bullets to see if you can make a new weapon."
"good."
After leaving the laboratory, the cold wind hit Yu Tian's face, but it could not extinguish the heat in Yu Tian's heart.
With Li Rui'er, Yu Tian already has the ability to change the situation of the apocalyptic battle. But it is also a double-edged sword. If used incorrectly, it is very likely to bring destruction to the demon hunter.
"The prerequisite is that confidentiality must be kept." Yu Tian murmured, walking forward slowly, when he suddenly heard a series of footsteps behind him.
When I turned around, I found it was Wang Jingyi's assistant Gu Xiaohui.
Yu Tian raised his hand to greet Gu Xiaohui: "Gu Xiaohui, where is your teacher?"
Unexpectedly, Gu Xiaohui ignored him and ran past Yu Tian with a "hum", holding a lot of bottles and jars containing seeds in her hands.
"What’s wrong with you."
Yu Tian quickly took two steps to catch up and grabbed Gu Xiaohui. As a result, Gu Xiaohui turned around and glared at Yu Tian: "We all know, you scumbag!"
Yu Tian's face was filled with embarrassment: "What's wrong? Why are you talking?"
"There is no need to say it." Gu Xiaohui finally stopped, with an indignant look on her face: "Boss, we admire you very much for your conduct, and thank you for protecting us all along the way. But why can't you give the teacher a good
status."
"In the beginning, you only had sister Lin Qingya, which we all understand, but then you took in sister Chu Wanshan, and now you have taken in sister Yun Feifei on the way, and only the teacher is left. But you have always ignored me, and you have not taken the initiative.
Look at the teacher."
"Do you know how sad the teacher is lately? You don't know anything. What you are doing is a scumbag behavior."
"..."
Looking at the angry brat who was fighting Wang Jingyi, Yu Tian smiled with a smile on his face. Looking back, he really owed Wang Jingyi a lot.
Wang Jingyi obviously entered the Demon Hunter earlier than Yun Feifei and Chu Wanshan, but she never found a position for Wang Jingyi because of Lin Qingya. Therefore, Yu Tian went to Wang Jingyi's place as little as possible.
And Wang Jingyi's character dictates that she will never take the initiative, which makes the relationship between the two even more awkward.
Yu Tian smiled: "Gu Xiaohui, please take me to your teacher."
Gu Xiaohui was startled because she found that Yu Tian's eyes were different. In the past, she was confused about how to deal with the relationship, but now she had some firmness like determination.
