Era of Disaster

Seeing Bai Yi like this, Hong Qihua stood up and nodded to everyone.

There are a total of 121 research institutes in New Zealand, and more than 100,000 test subjects. This is the information Martin told you. Although only the test subjects from the Hamilton North Research Institute and a nearby research institute have escaped. But who It is also not certain that the experimental bodies of other institutes will escape. Rather, they will definitely escape, it just depends on when.

In addition, the experimental body is just a reason. Although it is powerful, it is only more than 100,000. The real danger is the entire ecological circle of New Zealand. Now we are still in the human society, and the time is still short, so we still have to look at it. No change. I'm afraid, in those inaccessible places, those creatures in the natural world have already begun a cruel choice of life and death. The strong will survive, and the weak will become the bait of other animals. Hong Qihua said, opening her mouth suddenly , making a biting motion.

Hong Qihua bit down her silver teeth with a click, which shocked the few girls who were listening intently. Hong Qihua didn't talk about merging the gene of any creature at the beginning, but first explained the current situation, which made everyone's worries even deeper.

Qihua, don't intentionally scare people, okay? Sarah patted her chest in shock and shook it.

It's not scary. In essence, we are no different from those experimental subjects, and even more cruel. If we want to survive, we can only rely on our own efforts. Hong Qihua smiled, and then said more and more seriously .

In the past few days, we have made a rough classification of the types of genes, not according to the usual biological division, but another kind - strong power, faster speed, precise vision, powerful regenerative ability, maneuverability, toxin immunity, water environment adaptability, special abilities... Hong Qihua said, picked up a piece of chalk, and wrote on the blackboard.

There are about 2.5 million species of organisms recorded in the biosphere, including about 2 million species of animals, about 340,000 species of plants, and about 37,000 species of microorganisms. First of all, microorganisms are excluded, because microorganisms have always existed in various parts of the ecosystem , if they can be fused, they must have been fused a long time ago. Hong Qihua said, sorting them out on the blackboard, and everyone could see them more directly.

Secondly, although there are millions of species, those that are usually invisible are excluded, because in our current situation, it is impossible to get in touch. For the rest, it is best to select some animals or insects with special abilities. Hong Qihua stood on the podium, talking eloquently.

Everyone was attracted by Hong Qihua.

The original Hong Qihua always wore a pair of wide glasses, covering almost half of her face, looking very old-fashioned. Moreover, Hong Qihua herself was not very good in school, so it was easy to be overlooked. But now, after Hong Qihua took off her glasses, not only did she reveal her beautiful appearance, but her own temperament was also gradually revealed, which made people feel very strange...but possessed a strong attraction.

I asked Martin about the genes of which organisms to fuse, and I got more detailed information. I already have a simple classification. If you have more opinions, you can put them forward. There is no electronic screen, but there is a blackboard. It is also more convenient. Everyone sat quietly in their seats, only the rustling of Hong Qihua's writing.

Soon, Hong Qihua listed several types on the blackboard, then turned around and looked at everyone. At this time, everyone else was also looking at the things on the small blackboard. Hong Qihua's handwriting is very beautiful, not a master of calligraphy, but it looks pleasing to the eye. However, what everyone cares about now is not the font, but the content above.

① Powerful strength—that is, the most basic strength, which is easy to understand.

Ants: Ants are very small, but if you look at their bodies in comparison, no creature in the biosphere has the power of ants.

And it's very easy to get.

Of course, this is only theoretically speaking, if the body is the same size, the strength of the ant is invincible, but who knows what will happen after the gene is fused. Therefore, in the natural world, those creatures with huge power are also taken into consideration.

elephant:

Whale: They are all based on a huge body and have powerful strength, which can be regarded as absolute strength.

② Faster speed - two aspects, ground speed and flight speed. In the end, Bai Yi, Hong Qihua, and the others discussed and concluded that the ground is mainly about flexibility, and pure speed is not enough to deal with various crises, so flexibility is better. And for this flexible selection result, there are several creatures to choose from.

Fleas: The response is very quick. When encountering danger, it can jump within 0.7~1.2 milliseconds.

Hummingbirds: Muscle contraction takes only 8 milliseconds during flight.

Leopard: The running speed on the ground is not very suitable. The reason why leopards can run so fast has a lot to do with their body size.

③ Powerful five senses—that is, what is commonly referred to as vision, hearing, smell, touch, and taste.

1. The first is vision. Human vision is actually very general, and the capture of dynamic objects is very weak. Vision is definitely a very important point if it really needs to be improved. Generally, animals with compound eyes have strong dynamic vision, such as...flies. Of course, it's not just dynamic vision, but also night vision.

Dragonflies, butterflies, etc.: Basically, the dynamic vision of insects is good, and of course there is no need to choose disgusting creatures like flies.

Owls, Cats: Of course there are other creatures with night vision, but cats are the most common given how easy it is to obtain.

Vulture: This creature watches its prey at an altitude of several thousand meters, and then swoops down to prey. It has very strong long-sightedness.

2. Followed by hearing, hearing can make up for the lack of vision in many cases.

Bats: Ultrasonic positioning is great, but bats have this ability because they have near-none vision. Who knows whether they will also go blind after the bat's gene is fused, so it's best not to choose bats.

Cats and dogs: their hearing is also very good, and they can detect some dangers more flexibly.

3. Smell

4. Touch

5. Taste

Relatively speaking, there are not many applications of the latter three five senses in danger. Moreover, many creatures generally have stronger five senses, at least stronger than humans, not to mention the only ones.

④ Powerful regeneration ability - many animals have regeneration ability, but most of them are low-level creatures, so don't expect too much, and there is still no super-speed regeneration like in animation novels.

Gecko: The rebirth of a gecko with a broken tail is no longer familiar.

Zebrafish: The zebrafish can regenerate its fins, scales, spinal cord and part of its heart.

Sea Cucumber: A new sea cucumber can be grown by cutting off a little bit of flesh, but this ability is a bit like cloning.

Spiders: Spiders can grow broken legs.

In fact, judging from the recovery of Woolf and Sharpei in the past few days, the active cells themselves have a good regeneration ability. Of course, the premise is to provide enough food and energy.

⑤ Flying ability - flying ability can definitely make people avoid most crises. The ultra-high flying ability can quickly avoid crises.

Peregrine Falcon: The fastest flying bird, the maximum speed can reach 180 kilometers per hour.

Vulture: This creature can watch its prey at an altitude of several thousand meters, and then swoop down to prey. It can not only fly, but also has very strong long-sightedness.

Flies: The reason why I say flies is entirely because of the flexibility of flies. There is also the dynamic vision of flies. In short, some of the characteristics of this disgusting creature that people can't avoid are much stronger than humans.

However, these creatures may not be suitable, because their speed has a huge relationship with their body size. Humans may not be able to display this powerful flying ability by fusing their genes.

⑥ Toxin immunity - this is not absolute, many creatures have certain toxin immunity, but only certain toxin immunity. King snakes, for example, are immune to the venom of rattlesnakes and copperheads and feed on them.

⑦ Ability to adapt to the water environment - as long as it is aquatic organisms, it is obviously acceptable, but considering the above conditions, ornamental fish are obviously not suitable, but those such as octopuses are a good choice.

⑧Special abilities—such as spider spinning silk, poisonous snake venom, and mayfly's ability to crawl on water.

After Hong Qihua finished writing, everyone also finished reading it, and everyone fell into a slight sluggishness. Can humans really acquire those special abilities through gene fusion?

Of course, this is only an ideal state, but in fact, the fusion of genes cannot be divided according to this simple law. I have already asked Martin, so many research institutes, besides studying the misty longevity, are also summarizing The law of gene fusion. In fact, extracting theoretically useful and powerful genes for fusion is not such a surprising idea, and it has been experimented in the research institute for a long time. Hong Qihua said.

Then the result? Everyone asked with concern.

The result was not as good as expected. Hong Qihua was slightly silent.

Why? Everyone was very puzzled, just now Hong Qihua had painted a strong prospect for them, but in a blink of an eye she said that the result was not good, which really made them turn around.

Let me tell. Martin stood up. Everyone looked at Martin immediately. Among all the people, only Martin knew the most about the experimental subject. Although Martin was only a peripheral researcher, he was much better than the group of people who knew nothing.

The experimental subjects in the research institute can be roughly divided into four levels if they are divided according to their physical strength.

Four levels!
