At this time, in the biochemistry laboratory of the scientific research center.

Liu Zhanbo is very patient, he has been a soldier for decades, he has been in the special forces for more than ten years, and he has carried out hundreds of missions, and even impatient people will become very patient.

In charge of testing the DNA samples was Professor Gao Mingming, a young scientist in his thirties. Although he is not as famous as Luo Jinyong, he is also well-known in the biology world. Prior to working for the Planetary Defense Council, he led research efforts on diabetes. Without this catastrophe, he would have found a cure for diabetes from the ground up in a few years.

"Lao Liu, are you sure that this is a collected DNA sample and is not contaminated?" Because he helped Liu Zhanbo modulate the Doomsday Warrior system, Gao Mingming and Liu Zhanbo can be regarded as acquaintances.

"It must have been a DNA sample collected, and it was kept in the Doomsday Warrior system. What, is there a problem? ”

"It's human DNA."

Liu Zhanbo frowned, but he was not surprised. To be able to reach ten kilometers below the surface, it certainly can't be a wild animal.

"It's just that these DNA are very weird, and they are very different from normal people."

"What do you mean?"

"DNA is actually an abbreviation, that is, deoxyribonucleic acid, which is essentially an organic molecule, and its main function is to store genetic information, that is, to be a carrier of information. DNA controls the cell by controlling the compounds inside the cell, which in turn controls the organism as a whole. To put it more bluntly, DNA is the blueprint for the formation of cells and the formation of living organisms. All the basic information of living things is stored in DNA, so we can use DNA to replicate living things, which is called cloning. ”

"What's the difference between this DNA sample and a normal person?"

"The basis of DNA is base pairs, helical chromosomes formed by the combination of four deoxynucleotides, and humans have a total of twenty-three pairs of chromosomes, which in total contain more than three billion base pairs. Of these so many base pairs, less than one percent has an effect on the basic morphology of the human body. Although there are Caucasians, yellow people and black people, and the appearance difference is very large, the actual difference between the base pairs of the three races is less than 1/10,000. On top of that, the difference between us and our closest chimpanzee is only four percent. ”

"What's the key?"

"These are indeed human DNA, but they are as different as ten percent from normal people."

Liu Zhanbo's brows jumped a few times, and his expression suddenly became grim.

"To put it simply, 99 percent of the base pairs in DNA are meaningless, and all people are the same. But in this DNA sample, 10 percent of these base pairs, which were supposed to be the same, were modified. ”

"Modification?"

"Maybe it's been through other means, it's changed."

"What impact will this have?"

Gao Ming sighed and said, "Do you think there is a superman in the world?" ”

"There's only Superman in the movies."

"In theory, everyone can be superhuman." Gao Ming paused slightly and said, "The human body itself is a huge treasure. For example, the utilization rate of the gray matter layer of the human brain is only 5 percent, and if it can be doubled, then everyone is Einstein. If we compare our DNA to a blank sheet of paper, and what is written on this side is just a small dot, the rest of the place is blank. ”

"In other words, a lot of information can be written."

"Yes, and the information written will change the basic appearance of the human body, so that it will gain some unimaginable abilities. may not be as exaggerated as depicted in the movie, but compared to ordinary people, he is definitely superhuman. For example, if we can make our skin cells ironphilic, and we can make our skin cells accumulate iron, then we can have an invulnerable steel body. ”

At this time, Liu Zhanbo's brows tightened.

"We need to tell Professor Luo right away."

"You save the information first, and if you can, you have to grow a sample of the cells with stem cells, and preferably get the cloning work ready."

"Clone?"

Liu Zhanbo nodded and said, "I'll go find Luo Jinyong." ”

Gao Mingming didn't say much, and immediately said that cell culture should be carried out. His relationship with Luo Jinyong is not close, and he has not worked together before, so it is better for Liu Zhanbo to come forward.

When Liu Zhanbo arrived, Chu Tianjiang just woke up from hypnosis.

As Luo Jinyong guessed, Chu Tianjiang did a lot of things subconsciously. For example, before Liu Zhanbo arrived, someone tried to get close to the sphere, triggering Chu Tianjiang's sense of self-defense. Special forces like Chu Tianjiang will be vigilant when they sleep, and their basic defense has long been deeply subconscious, and when they encounter danger, they don't need to think at all, and they will react instinctively under the control of their subconscious.

It's just that Luo Jinyong still has a lot of questions.

"Professor."

"The DNA sample test results are out?"

"It's human DNA, but it's very different from normal people. I can't understand what is going on, I have to let Gao Ming explain it to you. ”

"Okay, let's go." Luo Jinyong had already thought of testing Chu Tianjiang's DNA.

When he came to the biochemistry laboratory, Gao Mingming had already used stem cells to cultivate the first batch of living cells in the experimental dish, and was preparing for cloning.

Two years ago, some scientists proposed that if human civilization is doomed to extinction, it must try to preserve the essence of human civilization. At that time, the proposed method was to collect human DNA information and send it to the depths of the universe by spaceship. If the spaceship is intercepted by a more benevolent extraterrestrial civilization, it is very likely that humanity will gain living space on another planet, and it is possible that it will grow again after a long time.

After the proposal was adopted by the Planetary Defense Council, all 10 member states launched related research projects.

Human cloning has also been taken seriously by Member States, but due to legal, ethical and moral constraints, no country has allowed scientists to conduct human cloning experiments, and research has mainly focused on the theoretical stage and the cloning of other animals.

After successfully cloning hundreds of animals, there is no technical problem with cloning humans.

Humans are also animals, just intelligent animals. In terms of basic physiological structure, humans are not fundamentally different from mammals.

After Gao Mingming introduced the situation, Luo Jinyong immediately realized that only cloning could grasp the specific situation.

"Traditionally, you would have needed a mother first, and then it would take years, or even decades, to fully understand the characteristics of the clone."

"Obviously, we don't have that much time."

"In this case, organ cloning can only be done on other organisms."

"What do you mean?" Luo Jinyong knows a little about biology, but he doesn't know much, and he mainly focuses on the nervous system.

"Some human organs have been cloned from mice, such as ears and noses. We can use close human relatives, known as apes, to clone larger human organs, such as arms, thighs, etc., and even clone brains. ”

"How much time does it take?"

"A few months, but not a year at most."

"Can't it be shortened?"

"If it's a small organ, it can be cloned on a mouse, but a large organ can only be cloned on an animal that's large enough. In order to get a more perfect cloning result, we had to choose an ape that had the same twenty-three pairs of chromosomes as us. ”

"Then do it in stages."

Gao Mingming nodded and said, "I'll start working on it right away, and submit the first cloning report in a few days." ”

"You can come to me if you need anything."

"Professor Luo......" Gao Ming hesitated for a moment and said, "Although the traditional cloning method takes a long time, I think it ......"

"It's not about time."

"I know that it is the mother."

Luo Jinyong sighed and said, "Do you have to use humans as the mother?" ”

"Not necessarily, chimpanzees can also be mothers, it's just that no one has tried it. In fact, no scientist has ever cloned a human being so far. ”

"You think it's human?" Luo Jinyong glanced at the living cells in the experimental dish. "We're only 6 percent genetically different from chimpanzees, and we're 10 percent genetically different from humans. Even if it is a sapient being, it is definitely not human. ”

"...... so"

"Let it go, I'll go to Yuan Dezhi and ask him to help you get a few chimpanzees back."

"Female chimpanzees." Being able to get Luo Jinyong's full support made Gao Mingming very excited, because he dreamed of becoming the first scientist to clone humans.

Luo Jinyong smiled and said, "Could it be that a male chimpanzee can get pregnant?" Let it go, and I'll hold it when the sky falls. ”

Gao Mingming immediately nodded and agreed. Although he doesn't know much about Luo Jinyong, real scientists are real doers.

"Also, help Major Chu Tianjiang extract DNA samples."

"This ......"

"You have to test Major Chu Tianjiang's DNA with your own hands, and after the results come out, you can't archive them, just give them to me." Luo Jinyong paused slightly and said, "Remember, you can't tell anyone about this matter, and Mr. Yang is no exception." Except for the four of us, if there is a fifth person who knows the Tao, you should prepare to roll up and go home. ”

Gao Ming didn't dare to say anything, so he immediately agreed, and promised to keep it a secret.

Subsequently, Gao Mingming extracted Chu Tianjiang's saliva specimen. There are many ways to extract a DNA sample, the simplest of which is a saliva specimen.

After telling Liu Zhanbo again, Luo Jinyong took Chu Tianjiang back to the office.

Now, he wanted to see Chu Tianjiang's Doomsday Warrior system. Although he already knew that the Doomsday Warrior system of Chu Tianjiang had become unrecognizable, and could even be directly stored in his back, Luo Jinyong still felt that seeing was believing, and he needed to do a more comprehensive examination.
