Chapter 532 Can This Thing Really Increase Lifespan?
This is the result of Cheng Hao's research during this period.
In order to extract components useful to humans from these secretions, Cheng Hao spent a lot of energy and time and conducted animal experiments for a long time.
Finally something like this was achieved.
It's a drug-like thing.
Cheng Hao felt that aliens must have mature technology for large-scale cultivation of this fungus, but this kind of crystal should be extremely precious even among aliens.
Because Cheng Hao only got such a small amount of secretion after large-scale breeding, the amount is actually very small.
The size of a rice grain!
If this was a piece of crystal the size of an ordinary crystal, how much fungal cultivation would be required!
You know, the cultivation of this fungus is not easy.
Not many fungi can survive per cubic meter.
Cheng Hao specially opened a thirty cubic meter room in the basement to support these fungi. This is not the point. The point is that the conditions for these fungi to survive in the air are very harsh.
Breeding costs are extremely high.
To maintain an environment with a constant temperature of 30 degrees, the air humidity is required to be controlled at about 98%, but no liquid water can appear...
Otherwise these delicate fungi will look like they are dead to you.
Therefore, a high degree of algorithmic attention is required.
This is only a 30 cubic meter room, but it already consumes a lot of computing power and energy. Even so, it still took nearly a month to accumulate a crystal the size of a grain of rice!
It is conceivable how precious this crystal is. Even if the alien civilization is very high-end and very awesome, it is still impossible to have too many such crystals!
There is no way, time, space, and energy consumed are all here. Such a thing is destined not to be enjoyed by civilians!
Cheng Hao can understand why these aliens want to live in symbiosis with this fungus!
Because the crystals secreted by this fungus are so precious!
These aliens were probably just born, and they were all implanted with this fungus to live in symbiosis with the human body.
This fungus is no longer so delicate after symbiosis with the body, but it still shares life with aliens.
Generally speaking, at least the appetite will definitely increase.
As for whether there will be other side effects, based on Cheng Hao's current research, it is not clear that this involves changes at the genetic level.
Cheng Hao did not have the original genes of these aliens before they planted fungi.
After years of coexisting with fungi, or even being modified by fungi, their genes have actually become stable!
It's even completely stable.
Therefore, just looking at these, there is actually no way to explain the impact that the cultivation of this fungus has on human genes.
Anyway, at least Cheng Hao will not grow this kind of fungus!
But this kind of crystal......
There was a trace of hesitation in Cheng Hao's eyes.
According to Xiao U's monitoring, this crystal is just a drug, but it will also affect genes, but this effect changes a specific gene in the body.
According to Xiaou's monitoring, this change seems to be controllable, but there is currently no experimental data!
Cheng Hao will definitely not consider growing fungi for the time being.
But this kind of crystal...
A trace of hesitation flashed in Cheng Hao's eyes.
You can consider this thing, but Cheng Hao is prepared to thoroughly verify the safety of this thing before using it on himself.
After all, no matter what, it is a drug that changes genes.
This kind of thing needs to be tested for safety!
How can you not test the safety of things you use on yourself?
Thinking of this, Cheng Hao took another look at the rice-sized crystal in front of him, with a trace of reluctance flashing in his eyes.
Is this thing really going to be used as an experiment?
It took a lot of effort to save such a small crystal!
Gritting his teeth, Cheng Hao decided to use this thing for experiments!
Anyway, he is already planning to spend a lot of money to open an unmanned factory specifically for breeding this kind of thing, which takes up a lot of space.
Then find a place with few people, preferably in the mountains. If energy consumption is high, it is best next to a nuclear fusion power station. Water resources are needed to maintain humidity, so build it next to a river!
Cheng Hao's eyes flashed with light.
After carefully putting away the crystal in his hand.
Cheng Hao called Boss Wang Tian.
Explained his thoughts.
"What?? You want this place to be used to grow alien fungi???"
After Wang Tian heard what Cheng Hao said, there was a strong look of hesitation in his eyes.
"If this thing is leaked, will it pose a huge threat???"
"Won't!"
Cheng Hao nodded, and he said to Boss Wang Tian with a bit of laughter: "Boss, haven't I told you about this fungus before? As long as it is placed outdoors, if it is not parasitic, it will last for up to ten minutes.
, all dead!
And this thing is not contagious! Generally speaking, it can only be said to be a lifelong host. More importantly, what I plan to build is an unmanned factory, which will be set up in the mountains!"
“Then will this thing cause pollution??”
Boss Wang Tian still had a trace of hesitation in his eyes.
"After all, this thing is an alien creature. You have to understand us. If something happens to this thing..."
"Don't worry! Although this fungus is an alien creature, to put it bluntly, it is also a fungus. Its essence is not much different from the fungi on the earth. After it dies, it will turn into the most basic water and normal organic matter.
!”
Cheng Hao said calmly to Boss Wang Tian.
"You should believe me, we have done many experiments with this fungus, and even human experiments! Although the researcher is still in a coma, his physical condition has always been very good!
Muscle activity far exceeds that of ordinary humans, and muscle strength has increased by 30%! It can be said that it is much better than before!"
As he spoke, Cheng Hao's eyes flashed with excitement.
Although Boss Wang Tian was still a little hesitant, he was also a little excited.
“This thing can really increase lifespan???”
Boss Wang Tian asked Cheng Hao curiously.
"So far, yes!"
Cheng Hao smiled slightly and said to the boss Wang Tian in front of him: "This fungus is a completely beneficial bacteria. It should be a type of fungus specially developed by alien civilizations to symbiosis with their bodies. This fungus
Their secretions can be continuously optimized to modify their genes and eliminate some bad genes!
As a result, their bodies are constantly being optimized, and this optimization is increasing their lifespan!"
