Chapter 238 Gene Medicine 【Seeking Monthly Ticket】
Within the original subway line of Donghai City.
An expedition team composed of more than 20 scientists from the Ming Dynasty and Shuguang Research Institutes, including Chen Guang and Li Li, is carefully studying the life forms composed of zombie viruses that appear in the subway at this moment.
"Strange, the more I look at it, the more I feel that these things cannot generate spiritual intelligence anyway!"
"How did those high-level zombies evolve?" Li Li murmured to himself as he looked at the life form composed of zombie viruses that glowed like a small umbrella in front of him.
No, these things are not normal life forms at all.
They are nothing more than a bunch of zombie virus spores gathered together to form a low-level extraordinary polymer species governed by instinct.
This is also the reason why zombies cannot be killed.
Because they are not individuals in the first place, if you want to kill them, you must kill all the zombie viruses that make them up.
And this is why it is extremely difficult.
Just like a tyrant.
Unless every time you kill the tyrant, you can use spiritual fire to continuously burn the tyrant's corpse, so that you can completely kill the zombies.
Otherwise, after other low-level zombies devour the tyrant's corpse, the killed tyrant will be reborn in the bodies of other zombies.
This is what makes this zombie virus so difficult to deal with.
But this characteristic has lost its commonality among high-level zombies, because high-level zombies have developed intelligence and they are no longer a polymer composed of zombie viruses.
It felt to Li Li as if they had changed from one creature to another.
This was what puzzled Li Li the most.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for this kind of thing to produce spiritual intelligence.
Because they themselves are pure polymers composed of countless individuals. Even if such a thing can give birth to a unified consciousness, it is still a species that only relies on instinct.
Low-level zombies and tyrants are good examples.
"Maybe it has something to do with the magic core in their bodies!"
"After all, the blue magic core in high-level zombies is a very mysterious and strange thing. We haven't fully studied this blue magic core yet." Next to Li Li, Chen Guang couldn't help but put forward his own conjecture.
This was also the research direction before Donghuang Ancient Kingdom.
They have always believed that the magic core is the most critical factor for these zombies to produce intelligence, and it is also the reason why they can evolve into high-level zombies.
This is also the reason why they collect magic cores and use them to conduct experiments.
Hearing this, Li Li couldn't help but shook his head.
"The magic core cannot replace the soul!"
"He is more like the nerve fibers in the human body, functioning as a nerve center. This is why ordinary zombies move slowly, but mutant zombies with magic cores in their bodies move quickly."
"But even if they move as fast as tyrants, they still rely on instinct to act. Their essence has not changed. They are all polymers."
"According to our Ming Dynasty's experience, it is impossible for this kind of polymer to produce intelligence after evolving once or twice."
"Even if they can become living beings, it will take an extremely long process, and the living beings produced will be powerful and rare, and cannot be everywhere like those high-level zombies."
Standing behind Li Li, another scientific researcher couldn't help but touch his chin and began to think deeply after hearing this. At this moment, he suddenly said: "Maybe those high-level zombies are not intelligently produced by the zombie virus. Is there another possibility, to seize the body!"
"Seize the body?"
Li Li couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard this: "This is indeed a brand new direction, and it is indeed possible."
It has been nearly a hundred years since the Ming Dynasty’s spiritual energy was revived.
A hundred years may not be a long time, but it is certainly not a short time.
This is quite a long time.
In the past hundred years, although the Ming Dynasty's main energy has been on the exploration and conquest of other worlds, its exploration of the homeland has never stopped.
In the general environment of spiritual energy recovery, in addition to the various spiritual materials and spiritual stones that have been proven to have various uses, another thing that appears very frequently is ghosts.
More than thirty years ago, in the Ming Dynasty, there was a case where a ghost took over the body of an ordinary person and married him and had children on his behalf.
This case once caused a sensation, even Zhu Yuanzhang was alarmed.
Finally, the ghost was brought back to the Academy of Sciences, and many academicians conducted extremely in-depth research on it.
Therefore, I am very familiar with the matter of Li Li seizing the body. This has always been a research direction of the Ming Academy of Sciences.
Of course, the term "seize the body" is a bit too fantasy. There is a more prepared term in the Academy of Sciences.
"Soul transplantation!"
This is an extremely huge research direction. If we can really understand it, not only will human beings be able to achieve immortality, but at least their lifespan will be greatly increased.
But now it seems that the high-level zombies in this zombie world have mastered this method.
If those high-level zombies are really produced by unknown souls using the method of seizing bodies to control the tyrant, it will undoubtedly be good news for Ming Dynasty, because after all those high-level zombies are eradicated, the Academy of Sciences will definitely be able to master this
method.
As for the Ming Dynasty being unable to defeat this side of the world, Li Li believed that this was impossible.
Ming Dynasty is invincible.
"Sure enough, another world is the place that can most trigger changes in scientific experiments!" Li Li's eyes flashed and he couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"Is this the newly developed second-generation zombie virus vaccine?" At the same time, in the bunker where Zhu Biao and others were hiding, looking at a bottle of light blue medicine handed over by two scientific researchers, Zhu Biao couldn't help but asked curiously.
Half a month has passed since Zhu Biao and his people escaped from Shuguang Research Base.
In the past half month, the scientific researchers brought by Zhu Biao from Daming and local researchers such as Chenguang have been working together to conduct experiments, and finally the first research results have come out.
"Report to Your Highness!"
"This can no longer be called a vaccine. We think it is more appropriate to call it a genetic medicine!"
"Because this is the potion that allows mortals to open the genetic lock!"
"Just such a small potion can give a mortal an extraordinary power equivalent to that of a ninth-grade martial artist in an instant." The researcher said with confidence.
"Is there no risk?" Zhu Biao asked in disbelief.
Although there is no shortage of ninth-grade extraordinary people in the Ming Dynasty, it is still not an easy task to reach the ninth grade.
Today, the Ming Dynasty has a population of nearly 30 billion, among which only one thousandth of the people can reach the ninth level.
Now such a potion can directly turn an ordinary person into an extraordinary person. This is a huge increase in Ming Dynasty's combat power.
"Of course there are risks!"
A figure appeared next to Zhu Biao, it was artificial intelligence Hongyue.
Now Hongyue has once again taken control of all the machinery in this experimental base, and also played a great role in the previous research on this genetic medicine.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Chen Guang and others to produce this genetic medicine within half a month.
"What risk?" Zhu Biao turned to look at Hongyue and asked.
"The fatality rate is three percent!"
"And the process is quite painful, the more advanced the genetic medicine, the more so!"
"So if you don't want to cause casualties, you'd better set a threshold for using this genetic medicine and require a higher level of willpower." Hong Yue said.
"Where's the yield?"
"Can mass production be achieved?" Zhu Biao asked again.
"There are three types of genetic medicines that have been researched so far. According to your classification of strength, they correspond to ninth-grade, eighth-grade, and seventh-grade extraordinary ones!"
"The potions above are still being refined, but completion is just a matter of experimentation!"
"No matter which kind of genetic medicine it is, the most important raw material used is magic core. A white magic core can produce three people's portions of ninth-grade genetic medicine, one person's portion of eighth-grade genetic medicine, and one third of it.
A seventh-grade genetic potion for one person."
After listening to Hongyue's introduction, Zhu Biao's eyes suddenly lit up.
Although only mutated low-level zombies can produce magic cores, this zombie world is vast and endless. There are countless zombies living in every city, and these zombies are renewable resources. That is to say, as long as you can control this
In one world, there will be an endless supply of magic cores.
This is of course good news for Zhu Biao.
Because this means that Ming can master another extraordinary path.
"Last question, if I fail to take the genetic medicine, is there a risk of turning into a zombie?" Zhu Biao asked again.
"No!"
"The inactivated zombie virus used in this medicine is completely non-infectious, and after being injected with this genetic medicine, you can also be immune to the zombie virus."
"good!"
Zhu Biao's eyes lit up when he heard this and continued: "Then let's get a batch of genetic medicine first, and let everyone who enters this world this time inject it to see the effect!"
Although the person entering this world this time is at least a sixth-level martial artist, the true energy or spiritual energy in the body can resist the zombie disease, but it is just a matter of direct immunity.
And the most important thing is that opening a transcendent path will continue to increase everyone's combat effectiveness. There is no doubt about this.
"Let's do it first!" In the end, Lu Bu and Dian Wei took over the first two experimental places.
After all, this is a genetic medicine extracted from a zombie virus. Although extremely complete experiments have been carried out, it has not been tested on humans after all.
Lu Bu and Dian Wei are both capable of killing high-level zombies alone. Even if there is a problem with this vaccine, it will not have any impact on them at all.
They are the most suitable candidates to serve as the guinea pigs for the genetic medicine.
Soon Lu Bu and Dian Wei injected a ninth-grade genetic medicine in front of Zhu Biao and others.
Then, under the gaze of everyone, the two easily opened the first gene lock.
"Not bad!" Lu Bu's eyes flashed and he nodded.
He could feel that his strength had significantly increased by 20% after opening the first gene lock.
This made him very happy.
"Where's the eighth-grade genetic medicine?"
"Bring it to me quickly!" he said nonchalantly.
Soon the eighth-grade and seventh-grade genetic medicines were brought over and injected one by one by Lu Bu.
As a result, of course, nothing happened.
"monster!"
"This guy's physique is simply a monster. I suspect he is a beast in human skin!" Hong Yue couldn't help but said helplessly after scanning Lu Bu's body with an instrument.
She originally wanted to compare Lu Bu's physical changes before and after the injection of genetic medicine.
But she soon gave up the idea.
Because even before the genetic medicine was injected, Lu Bu's various physical indicators on the instrument still exploded, and Lu Bu's true physical limit could not be measured at all.
What a comparison!
In fact, this was the result that Zhu Biao had explained in advance. If not, these technological instruments would not be able to detect the situation in Lu Bu's body at all.
In the face of high-level transcendent beings, these scientific instruments are indeed of little use.
With Lu Bu and Dian Wei as examples, one hundred and twenty soldiers were soon injected with three genetic medicines. Except for two people who developed fever symptoms, none of the others suffered any casualties. After being injected with the ten thousand genetic medicines,
Everyone's strength has improved a lot.
Obviously, in front of these warriors who are extraordinary beings themselves, the mortality rate of this genetic agent has been greatly reduced.
"call……!"
In Zhu Biao's own room, three genetic potions were also placed on the table.
He picked up the first potion, exhaled gently, and then injected himself with one without hesitation.
He has now opened up Dantian, Qihai and Niwan Palace, which are the three major secrets of the human body. Now he is very curious about how it will feel after the gene lock is opened.
According to Luo Yun and Luo Meng, the gene lock is opened in the spine, which may be the fourth greatest secret of the human body.
The medicine immediately spread all over his body, as if it had a chemical reaction with some kind of force within his body.
It was this chemical reaction that allowed his body to produce a burst of energy out of thin air.
Zhu Biao was very sure that this energy was generated directly from his body, which was somewhat similar to Jin Qi.
In a trance, Zhu Biao seemed to see a big lock appearing on his body, and the energy overflowed from behind the lock.
This energy was completely out of his control and kept running rampant in his body. His body itself was protected by his true energy, so he was not afraid of such collisions at all.
But if you were an ordinary person, I'm afraid it wouldn't be so easy.
This collision will definitely cause great pain.
Soon, the energy finally gathered on his spine, and then blasted away.
"Crack!" Zhu Biao seemed to hear the sound of a chain breaking in his body.
A minute later, Zhu Biao slowly opened his eyes.
"No wonder this extraordinary system is called Gene Lock. It turns out there really is a lock in the human body!"
Zhu Biao's eyes flashed and he murmured to himself.
His first gene lock has been opened, and he can feel that with the opening of the gene lock, his strength, speed and reaction ability, and all other basic attributes have increased significantly.
The resulting increase in combat effectiveness is huge.
