Chapter 601: Multiple Combinations (Part II)
When he got out of the car, Wu Zunliang was still confused: "At home? There shouldn't be much left in her house. At the beginning, Lao Luo Topande, who was the younger brother of our family, was working in Spring City at that time...... Lao Luo asked him to help recruit a few graduate students who could work nearby, and I felt that Wu Jun was studying hard in Spring City alone, so he helped talk about it inside. ”
"Yes, yes, it's Professor Pan De, Xiao Wu and I were recruited by him in one batch, and Xiao Wu is the youngest in this group."
Dr. Wang got out of the car first, breathed in the slightly hot air of the wilderness, felt that the pressure had subsided a little, his body movements were much more lively, and his head was like pounding garlic.
When it was Wu Zunliang's turn, he refused Tang Yi's support, and then Ronan got started, he didn't refuse, but he still took a vigorous posture, and finally took a small jump.
At the same time, his mouth did not stop: "...... I was also thinking at the time, Wu Jun's character is relatively weak, and he can't do any tricks through independent research, so it is better to take advantage of Lao Luo's east wind to exercise, and the result is really going headlong, which is to make your Luo family mysterious.
"She didn't spit out about her project, but Lao Luo mentioned it earlier, it was for aberrant species, and to engage in ecological network ...... at the genetic level."
"Research on the Ecology of Distributed Aberration Gene Networks." Dr. Wang blurted out, awkwardly and lengthy names, and it was rare for him to say so smoothly.
Ronan raised an eyebrow, but then took the initiative to change the subject.
"Your joints and muscles are doing pretty well." Ronan appropriately commented, "I usually adjust properly, and the nutrition cabin is not less soaked, and it should be a targeted exercise......
Wu Zunliang felt that Ronan's statement was objective and his vision was unique, and he was very comforted: "People in the city are engaged in field work, don't you bother to think about it?" ”
The old man said as he stood still and looked around.
This area is still very desolate, but in the field of vision, including the area where you step on your feet, you can see faint traces of artificiality, and the occasional edges and corners in the depths of the barren grass can be seen as the remains of some buildings.
It's in ruins, the kind that has been completely destroyed.
The most conspicuous thing in the vicinity is the vehicles and people they brought with them.
In addition to the armed vehicles that transported them, the other two armored vehicles also had nearly twenty soldiers or military-style bodyguards, all of whom were equipped with exoskeletons, and there were even four "Deep Blue Walkers" inside, and a cordon had been set up around them at this time.
Generally speaking, one or two B-level ability people who are idle do not dare to provoke this team easily.
Ronan looked at Tang Yi: "Your sponsors are quite generous. ”
"After all, it is a project that is very promising to be selected as the 'Millennium Concern Project' of the Star Union Committee, and it is particularly easy to use in concept, and the size is satisfactory." Tang Yi flicked the brim of his hat and smiled subtly, "Compared with the possible benefits, the scientific research funds are only a few. ”
At this time, Lieutenant Colonel Chen walked around from the front of the car: "Professor Wu, according to the database, there are no distortion species of class B and above in the surrounding area, and the closest aberration nest is also 200 kilometers away, which is basically safe...... But it's best not to stay too long, as it's still a frequented area for low-altitude predators. ”
"Okay, okay."
Wu Zunliang agreed unintentionally, his eyes turned on Ronan's face, and then fell to Dr. Wang: "We have no concept here, I will leave it to you later!" ”
"To put it bluntly, I haven't been here for a few years...... The road is definitely remembered. ”
At this moment, Dr. Wang was the focus of almost everyone's attention, he couldn't help but be a little nervous, and subconsciously made an excuse for himself, but soon under Ronan's gaze, he made a statement.
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and asked the group to go forward: "There is actually a distance between here and the core area of the original laboratory, and at the moment these are just the original defensive bunkers, half on the ground and half underground...... The laboratory was completely underground, so the damage caused by the earthquake was also very serious. ”
Ronan didn't understand and asked, "Why is it underground?" ”
"There's a natural cave there."
"But that would only be more dangerous, wouldn't it? In humid environments with low or no light, the danger of distortion is even higher. ”
"Uh......" Dr. Wang was speechless.
Fortunately, Ronan didn't dig deeper, and the group continued to move forward.
The outer cordon also moved, and there were three armed vehicles, which made the wasteland quite noisy.
Ronan cast his gaze, but still didn't say anything.
However, Lieutenant Colonel Chen, who had been paying attention to the change in his expression, immediately pulled the arm of Captain Qiu beside him and exchanged a few glances with the latter, and perhaps there was communication in internal communication.
In short, after hesitating for a few seconds, Captain Qiu still gave the order to let those armed vehicles stand by on the spot, and only the security personnel followed.
Without the roar of machinery, the surroundings were suddenly much quieter, so that Dr. Wang's voice became clearer and clearer. Since he had just been asked, he was trying to turn the conversation in the direction he was good at while acting as a tour guide:
"The vast majority of our group of people are involved in the 'distributed' gene project, identifying and isolating aberrations of genes, measuring the growth environment, and trying to make them 'live' together, similar to pondering a microscopic ecosystem. According to Dean Luo, structure is the most important thing...... Whether it is the structure of the ecological food chain or the physical structure of the space environment. ”
When it comes to familiar technical fields, Dr. Wang is becoming more and more fluent: "At the beginning, we were mainly responsible for classes in the laboratory. The design of the food chain, Xiao Wu's side is mainly to design an ideal coexistence environment, and the two sides work together to ensure that a cyclic and dynamic gene competition map can be completed in a continuous spatio-temporal environment, so as to compare the nature and evolution trend of various aberrant genes in the wilderness environment, to see which one is stronger and which is weaker, and whether it conforms to the realistic environment of the wilderness aberrant ecology; on the other hand, it is also to find an ideal genetic coding sequence......"
"That's basically what biology is all about." Wu Zunliang made a brief comment, and then thought thoughtfully, "I read your paper on the Internet, and indeed a considerable part of it is in the field of 'genetic competition', although it has been more than ten years, it is also very insightful to read now." ”
Dr. Wang could only say "ashamed" again, at this time he was out of control, and continued to sigh: "In order to enrich the gene pool, we have really dealt with aberrants a lot in those years, all kinds of experiments!" In particular, there is no way for the laboratory to collect the genetic samples of some powerful aberrant strains, and it is particularly troublesome to go through official channels, so I can only entrust the wilderness hunters and tribes, and there are large expenditures every year, and I thought that the laboratory would not be able to support it several times, but the result was ......."
"It didn't end up being planted on money, but on other messy things." Wu Zunliang sighed and wanted to say a few more words, but it was boring.
At this time, the group had already walked more than 200 meters inside, and Lieutenant Colonel Chen dutifully informed: "The front is a collapse area, for the sake of safety, it is better to keep a certain distance." ”
Dr. Wang agreed: "The structure of the subsidence zone is unstable...... Hey, in fact, it was one of the safe areas of the laboratory earlier, and it was Dr. Bu who was hit and became relatively vulnerable, and it collapsed the most during the earthquake. ”
Ronan turned his head to look at him, "Is that there?" ”
"Well, it's actually a little bit more out of the way."
Dr. Wang struggled to organize his rhetoric: "In '80, the lab had basically been breached, and everyone was hiding in safe houses, only to be blasted and intimidated by those people outside, as if there were distortions that could travel through the soil, and so on. The subsidence area was the most damaged area at that time, and in the following years, people were panicked and financially stretched, and it has not been repaired......"
Due to his nervousness, in addition to becoming chattering, Dr. Wang did not describe the situation clearly, and even did not know as much as Ronan in terms of information.
However, it is also this living emotion that leads to a sense of bringing that is difficult to reflect in the cold manuscript figures.
Ronan's gaze stopped on Dr. Wang's face.
Perhaps it was precisely because of his gaze that Dr. Wang was a little unsustainable in the back: "Probably, probably for this reason......"
Ronan pursed the corners of his mouth slightly: "Dr. Wang, you know, I don't care too much about why this place is the way it is. If I could, I would have liked to hear more about my mother. ”
"Well, yes, Dr. Bu was really shy at the time, and the environment in the lab wasn't very suitable for pregnant women, so we weren't very common...... In fact, if it weren't for the accident, I heard that Dr. Bu would have been transferred to Spring City to have a baby. ”
"Why don't you go early? And why did it happen? ”
"This ......," Dr. Wang asked again.
When they were embarrassed, in front of the group, a low hoarse voice sounded, which crossed the cordon of the security personnel and came in clearly:
"How can there be so many 'whys'? If you have to find a reason, it's just that the bad luck and trouble, trouble, and calamity brought out by your Luo family's bad curiosity have infected her and ruined her, that's all. ”
After the sound sounded, the security personnel on the cordon and the exoskeletons they equipped, including the four Deep Blue Walkers, did the alarm respond. The three armored vehicles that were left behind started accordingly and roared.
However, the target of all this did not take any further action. Previously, he had only "walked" up the hole in the collapsed area as if he were going up a staircase, standing at the edge of the area, wearing the experimenter's white suit, unbuttoned, and the corners of his clothes swaying undulating with the hot air currents of the wilderness.
At first glance, it looks like the people who stayed here and took the initiative to welcome the guests.
Wu Zunliang was blocked by Captain Qiu for the first time, but the old man's eyes were very sharp, and he had basically recognized the identity of the figure:
"Luo Yuan?"
