Chapter 497: The Awakened Beast (2)
Three thousand meters deep in the sea, with the diving of the deep-sea robot, a strange deep-sea world is presented from the holographic screen.
A large number of bubbles are constantly gushing out from the ground, and all kinds of deep-sea fish are like frightened headless flies, jumping around, as if they have a premonition of the coming of the end.
Professor Smith stared at the holographic screen and asked nervously, "How long will it be before it wakes up?"
"According to the monitoring data of the biological wave detector, its life intensity continues to increase, and its body functions are gradually recovering, and it is expected to reach its peak in 65 hours, and then wake up. Zhou Xiaozhi replied.
Hearing this, Professor Smith nodded happily: "65 hours, it's okay, it's okay!"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and in 65 hours, the personnel of Sky City had completed the evacuation and rubbing, and it might be possible to find a way to destroy this giant beast.
"Professor Zhao, can you analyze the biological habits of this giant beast? Is it dormant because of the climate?Is there a way to keep it sleeping?" Zhou Yu looked at Professor Zhao and asked.
"Yes, with such a large volume, what does it rely on to survive?" Professor Smith asked, looking at Zhao Huaien with a puzzled expression.
Zhao Huaien smiled bitterly and hurriedly explained: "Its size can't be regarded as an ordinary creature, so I really don't know what ecological signs it has now, as for the way to maintain survival, it must be analyzed according to its cells." ”
Hearing this, everyone nodded in unison, this giant creature can grow so big, it is definitely not an ordinary creature, then its cells are definitely not the structure of ordinary biological cells.
The cell of an ordinary organism is a molecular structure, and each biological cell is composed of some important biomolecules and water, these molecules include deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), ribonucleic acid (RNA), proteins, sugars and fats.
All eyes are on the holographic screen, waiting for its results.
The size of the giant beast is too large, therefore, the reaction amplitude of its bodily functions is also amplified, and it takes several days to wake up once, and the deep-sea robot reaches its body like a mosquito, punching holes and burrowing holes in its body, which does not affect its sleep in the slightest.
"The dust has been cleared, the cut-off wheel is cutting its skin, the speed of the runner: 1500R/min, the temperature of 650°~750°C is reached instantly, and the temperature of the runner is rising rapidly,...... , the skin cannot be cut. Zhou Xiaozhi reminded everyone.
Hearing this, everyone's hearts tightened, its skin was so tough, it shouldn't be impossible to obtain its living tissue.
"Oh my God, what kind of cell structure is the outer layer of its skin, and the cut-off wheel can't cut it?" Professor Smith was shocked.
"Ash, change the way. Zhou Yu's face changed, and he hurriedly ordered.
"Understood, Commander! Change the laser punching acquisition method to a laser power density of 20K/cm2. Zhou Xiaozhi replied in response.
Immediately, the deep-sea robot put away the cutting wheel, aimed the metal arm at the original position with one hand, the blue light was dotted, flashing, and the 20K laser beam suddenly worked under an area of 1 square centimeter, and instantly penetrated, and the skin that the cutting wheel could not cut.
"Commander, T210 has successfully captured its living tissue. Zhou Xiaozhi reported to Zhou Yu,
"Okay! Zhou Yu was shocked and happily ordered.
"Wait a minute, don't bring living tissue aboard the Rock, set up a makeshift laboratory on the transport ship for testing, and prevent accidents. Professor Zhao Huaien interrupted Zhou Yu's order.
"Commander, this biological cell can be extremely contagious, and we must be careful. Professor Zhao Huaien looked at Zhou Yu and explained.
"Well, Ash, just do what Professor Zhao wants. Zhou Yu nodded, looked at Zhou Xiaozhou and commanded.
"Okay, Commander!" Zhou Xiaozhi complied with the order, and immediately temporarily converted a transport spaceship into a biological laboratory.
Soon, the deep-sea robot flew out of the sea with living tissue, and after the transport spacecraft picked it up, it was sent to the biological laboratory as quickly as possible.
The scientists watched through the command screen as Zhou Xiaozhi conducted an analysis experiment on 'living tissue'.
Biopsy imaging and image analysis, biopsy tomography image segmentation, micron-scale biometric tissue structure analysis and information extraction, biopsy synthesis reaction, biopsy coloring and endoscopic reconstruction,......。
Test tubes containing black substances are placed into various instruments for full experimental detection.
Nearly an hour passed, Zhou Xiaozhi completed the last living tissue analysis experiment, and reported to Zhou Yu: "Commander, the living cells of this creature have been analyzed, and the living tissue is composed of, silicon, phosphorus, carbon, water molecules, and DNA,...... , etc., 37 elements are composed of species, and the cell structure not only has biological characteristics, but also has metallic properties,...... The living tissue can obtain devouring metal elements and biological elements through the outside world to grow. ”
Hearing this, everyone trembled, glanced at each other, and saw shock in each other's eyes.
"Isn't the structure of this living tissue the biomechanical research technology we got from the Black Rock Civilization?" Professor Smith muttered distractedly.
"It's really not an ordinary creature!Its cell structure is more sophisticated and flexible than the biomechanical technology of the Black Rock Civilization, and the Biomechanical Technology of the Black Rock Civilization should have been studied from 'it'!" Zhao Huaien smiled bitterly and looked at Professor Smith to explain.
"Well, that's right. Professor Smith nodded approvingly.
"Hmm, do you have a way to deal with it?" Zhou Yu asked with concern.
"Not sure yet, we need more information. Professor Zhao Huaien shook his head, looked at Zhou Xiaozhi, and ordered: "Xiaozhi, conduct a live experiment, I want to observe its reaction." ”
"Okay, Professor Zhao!" Zhou Xiaozhi responded, and immediately, in the middle of the screen, the manipulator injected black cells into the body of the experimental white mouse, and at the same time, injected a nanomonitor.
The large holographic screen shows a sea of blood-red cells, as well as a picture of a large black cell.
Soon, the unthinkable happened.
The black cells continue to devour the red blood cells that are close to them, and then they replicate wildly, one becomes two, two becomes four, and expands wildly.
The immune cells in the mouse sense the invasion of xenogeneous cells and react quickly, and various 'armed forces' come to destroy them, however, in front of the black cells, they only have the share of food delivery, this kind of cell is extremely strong, and can rely on devouring the rest of the normal cells to grow.
This kind of black giant cells will also engulf each other, everyone can see, the largest black cell, has grown to the order of one centimeter, the naked eye can clearly see, if not interfered, these cells are estimated to devour the body of the mouse, and then the black cells will engulf each other, and finally, a mouse will become a single huge black cell.
Ten minutes passed, the mouse's limbs twitched, and it died in pain, and then, its body slowly turned into a piece of black living tissue that was constantly moving, very disgusting.
"Shhh
Seeing this scene, all the scientists gasped in unison.
"It's terrifying! How could there be such a creature! If it were to be infected, wouldn't the whole person be a cell?" Professor Smith said with his eyes wide in disbelief.
"Ash, can you eliminate it by injecting chemicals?" Zhou Yu looked at the experiment screen creepily and asked Zhou Ash.
"No! According to the biological characteristics of this cell, ordinary chemical tissues cannot destroy its cell structure!" Zhou Xiaozhi responded.
Hearing this, the scientists were silent for a while, the cell structure of this biological machine was beyond their cognition, and their usual methods could not deal with it at all!
Its cell tissue made everyone helpless, how to deal with that giant beast's huge body a hundred kilometers long?
Do you really want to leave Aqua Blue?
The scientists were frowning one by one, and their colors were solemn.
"Ash, using strong acids, concentrated sulfuric acid should be able to destroy this piece of living tissue. Zhao Huaien looked at Zhou Xiaozhi with a heavy heart and commanded.
"Understood!" Zhou Xiaozhi responded.
Immediately, the biological laboratory manipulator slowly poured strong sulfuric acid into the containing box in the center of the laboratory table.
"Sting. A puff of white smoke kept rising.
Concentrated sulfuric acid has a very strong ability to absorb water, when it encounters substances containing hydrogen and oxygen, concentrated sulfuric acid will make up the hydrogen and oxygen in these substances to absorb water, the acid ions of concentrated sulfuric acid are also very powerful, it has a very strong ability to react with other substances, and has a fairly strong ability to dissolve metals.
Soon, the black substance bubbled violently in the concentrated sulfuric acid, and the volume continued to shrink, and when it stood still, it became a black carbon block immersed in the sulfuric acid solution.
"Demonstration experiments have proved that concentrated sulfuric acid can indeed destroy it, but how much sulfuric acid does it take to destroy it because it is so large? And it is still in the Shenhai, this method cannot be implemented at all," Professor Smith shook his head and sighed.
Hearing this, everyone was silent for a while, and the hope that had just risen disappeared with Professor Smith's explanation.
"Ash, what are the chances of using the main ship gun of the Rock to destroy it?" Zhou Yu looked at Zhou Xiaozhi and asked.
"Commander, its outer armor skin is 1.6 kilometers thick, it has excellent energy defense, its cell structure is dense, and its energy resistance is extremely high,...... , the success rate of using the main ship's guns to eliminate it tends to be close to 0." Zhou Xiaozhi replied.
Zhou Yu's heart sank, even the main ship cannon couldn't destroy it!
"If only Mr. Zhou were here, he must have a way. Just then, a voice sighed.
Hearing this, everyone's faces showed an expression that was indeed so.
"You say, if Mr. Zhou is here, what means will he use to destroy it and develop a black hole weapon?" said Major General Zhang Heng as he looked at everyone and speculated.
"Although there is a possibility, however, the black hole weapon complicates the problem, and there should be an easier way, but we didn't expect it. Professor Smith said with a wry smile.
"Through its analysis of its living tissue, it has been confirmed that it is a biomechanical life, and we should deal with it around its weaknesses, and at the same time, it must also possess some great abilities, and if I can't find a way to deal with it, I recommend leaving this planet as soon as possible. Professor Zhao Baden looked at everyone and reminded.
"Biomechanical, what are the weaknesses besides acid?" Zhou Yu looked at Professor Zhao and asked.
Hearing this, Zhao Huaien replied with a wry smile: "Commander, a biomachinery is a mechanical body composed of all or part of a living organism or a life-like body (virus, etc.) to form a mechanical element, which combines the advantages of biology and machinery, and overcomes the shortcomings of both; ”
"Commander, why don't we leave this galaxy before it wakes up!" Professor Smith looked at Zhou Yudao.
"Commander, we are isolated now, and safety is paramount. Professor Zhao Huaien looked at Zhou Yu and suggested.
Hearing this, the corners of Zhou Yu's mouth twitched slightly, it has never been his style to be cowardly before fighting.
"If we retreat, we have to retreat to the giant galaxy 6.7 light years away from us, although there is a planet suitable for migration, but it is far from the water blue star, and the shuttle wormhole will make us lose another universe, this voyage will cost us 65 years, what do you think?" Zhou Yu reminded as he looked at everyone.
Hearing this, everyone was silent for a while, and the price of retreat was too heavy.
The climate and environment of the water blue star are being transformed for a period of time, and the environment is almost comparable to the earth, and the chances of finding another such planet in the vast universe are slim, not to mention, they have already spent a huge amount of effort on the water blue star, and they are unwilling to retreat!
"Commander, let's fight! Major General Zhang Heng looked at Zhou Yu with high spirits.
Hearing this, Zhou Yu was silent and hesitated, he was the commander of the Rock, the core of the entire Ark project, and the overall situation must be considered.
In the command room, the atmosphere was depressing, and everyone looked at Zhou Yu, waiting for his decision.
"Commander, if we can lure that beast out of the sea, we still have a chance to defeat it!"
Everyone was shocked, and hurriedly looked at the person who spoke, and it was the chemical scientist Luca.
Zhou Yu looked at Professor Luca with bright eyes, and couldn't wait to ask, "Professor, what can you do?"
"Biomechanical life is extremely adaptable, that giant beast should be amphibious, no, maybe it also has the ability to fly!" Professor Zhao Huaien looked at Professor Luca and introduced.
"It would be great if that was the case, I feel more confident. Professor Luca said happily with a smile on his face.
"Professor, if you have any way, just say it!" Zhou Yu asked expectantly.
Professor Luca smiled and nodded, looking at everyone and explaining, "Since strong acid is the weakness of this giant beast, then if we develop a strong acid weapon in this direction, we will definitely be able to kill it." ”
"Professor, with the size of that giant beast, we can't make so many strong acid weapons, right?" Zhao Huai asked puzzled.
"Well, the quantity is not up to scratch, we can find a way to improve the quality!" Professor Luca said with a smile.
That's right, the quantity is not enough, you can rely on the quality!
Hearing this, the eyes of all the professors lit up, and they immediately understood Professor Luca's thoughts.
