"Among the fossils recovered from the Namba Fissure Cave, we found a fossil egg, from which we recovered a fragment of the gene of a spiny predator......"

Lu Xiuwen continued to explain the latest discoveries of the Institute of Biology of the Academy of Military Sciences: "Through genetic tracing, we have found that predators were once an independent civilization millions of years ago.

"By comparing the genes of multiple predator species such as spiny predators, sky predators, and so on, it was found that there are genetic differences between predator species and other star beasts.

"Not only that, but through genetic tracing we found that the spiny predator had a genetic mutation millions of years ago.

"After genetic comparison, we found that the genetic mutation of the spiny predator was not accidental, but caused by some means.

"The research team of the Institute of Biology generally believes that this should be the way for the Star Beast Civilization to swallow the Predator Civilization, that is, genetic injection.

"The injected gene is the part that receives the command of the brain beast, and this part of the gene continues with the reproduction of the predator, making the predator civilization a part of the star beast civilization.

"Based on this new discovery, it can be speculated that if the human race is defeated, it will be injected with a genetic gene by the Star Beast Civilization, and the descendants of the human race will become part of the Star Beast Civilization."

Hearing this inference from the Institute of Biological Sciences, everyone present looked at each other and was a little shocked in their hearts.

This kind of civilization that can swallow up other civilizations is the first time I have heard of it.

This is very different from the human condition.

Human civilization includes only human beings, and other creatures on the earth are not part of civilization.

Of course, human beings are protecting some endangered species, but the extinction of these endangered species will not affect the progress of human civilization.

The Star Beast Civilization is different.

The Star Beast civilization includes many kinds of creatures, such as the Rift Stinging Snake, the Plasma Worm, and the Thorn Predator.

Moreover, the Star Beast Civilization also has the ability to swallow other civilizations, and even wants to swallow humans.

Before that.

Fang Yuan felt that the development speed of the Star Beast Civilization was very slow, as they were unable to have a technological explosion.

However, there is another way for the Star Beast civilization to make a leap forward, and that is to annex other civilizations.

What would be the result if the Star Beast Civilization swallowed up the Human Civilization?

The result may be that the Star Beast Civilization will take a civilizational leap through the mastery of technology by humans.

From this point of view, the evolution of the Star Beast Civilization is not necessarily worse than that of the Technological Civilization.

As long as the Star Beast Civilization can come into contact with enough civilizations and swallow them up one by one, it is hard to imagine what it will develop.

Fang Yuan's mind flashed with inspiration, and he suddenly thought of a terrible guess, stood up and spoke: "I have a terrible guess, if the Star Beast Civilization has the ability to be genetically injected, is it possible that there are already individuals among the human beings who have been injected with genes by the Star Beast Civilization. ”

As soon as this remark came out.

The venue suddenly caused a fierce discussion.

"In this case, there is indeed such a possibility. According to previous speculation, the civilization level of the Star Beast civilization is between 1.1 and 1.2, which is higher than our civilization level. ”

A military staff officer agreed: "And it has been sixty years since the Star Beast appeared, theoretically speaking, the Star Beast Civilization should start a war faster, and it would be much easier to kill us sixty years ago than it is now." ”

"Indeed, sixty years ago, there were no Awakened warriors among the human race, fighting entirely on thermal weapons, much weaker than they are now. Technology is not as advanced as it is now, but the Star Beast Civilization did not start a war at that time, which is very revealing. The other chimed in.

Fang Yuan took over and said, "That's what I think, the reason why the Star Beast Civilization has never started a war is that it wants to swallow us up in a subtle way by genetic injection.

"In other words, it is very likely that there are already humans among the human beings who have been injected with special genes by the Star Beast Civilization, and in sixty years, these people may have multiplied for two or three generations, and may have formed a scale."

After this guess came out, everyone had a feeling of hair in their hearts.

If this speculation is true, it means that there may already be a "species" of the Star Beast Civilization hidden among human beings.

It is indeed more appropriate to use the word "species", because these humans who have been genetically injected by the Star Beast Civilization are actually different from ordinary humans and can be regarded as another species.

One objected: "This speculation may not really exist, and so far no traitors have been found among the human race." ”

"Maybe it's just that the Star Beast Civilization didn't activate the special genes in these human bodies, so it didn't show any abnormalities. Once these special genes are activated, then these humans will inevitably be controlled by the Star Beast Civilization and become traitors among the human race! A general-level officer grabbed the conversation and spoke, his tone slightly excited.

At the end of the meeting.

After deliberations, the theater headquarters and the general staff set the tasks for the next period of time.

That is to secretly investigate the possible carriers of abnormal genes among humans.

If this speculation is true, then humanity is really in danger.

Because, no one knows who these humans who carry abnormal genes are and what they do.

After the meeting.

Fang Yuan walked out while thinking, and Han Youwei followed behind, wanting to speak, but she couldn't help but not speak.

Lu Xiuwen quickly walked two steps to keep up and said, "Fang Yuan, your guess just now is terrifying, but I have to say that there is indeed such a possibility, let's find a place to talk again, is it okay?" ”

"Okay, I have some questions that I need the professor's help answering.

So, the two found another small conference room to sit down and discuss.

In addition to the two, two senior researchers from the Institute of Biology of the Academy of Military Sciences, as well as Han Youwei, also participated.

"Professor Lu, I have a question, what method is used to inject the genetic genes of the Star Beast Civilization?" Fang Yuan asked aloud.

"It's impossible to know for sure, but in terms of difficulty, injecting genes into a fertilized egg is the easiest. Of course, it is also possible to inject genetics into adults and pass them on from generation to generation. ”

Lu Xiuwen paused, and added: "However, these are all speculations, and there is too little information known at present, and this abnormal gene has not been found in humans, so everything is just speculation." ”

Fang Yuan nodded, and then said, "Then, Professor Lu thinks that there is no reproductive isolation between humans with abnormal genes and normal humans, right?" ”

"This should be for sure, if there is reproductive isolation, then it will be very difficult for the Star Beast Civilization to annex the human civilization in this way. Only if the abnormal genes can be transmitted indefinitely can the result of annexation of civilization be achieved. Lu Xiuwen replied.
