Chapter 887: Inducement
Doctor Liu Jun stared at the snow-capped peaks in front of him and recalled: "We caught a lot of mutants who had lost their minds, and I did some research myself, and their blood cholesterol levels were very low. ”
"Cholesterol?" Du Yiyi was surprised, "Doesn't it mean that the high cholesterol content will endanger the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular vessels or something?" ”
Doctor Liu nodded, "You know a lot, but that's for humans before the mutation. You've all experienced mutations, do you remember how you were at the time? Extreme lack of nutrients, need to supplement a lot of sugar, protein. ”
Both Du Yiyi and Cheng Jiayi recalled the scene at that time.
At that time, Cheng Jiayi brought a bag of chocolates to the school, but before they had eaten them all during the big recess, Du Yiyi went to the school's small supermarket and bought three large bags of candy.
At that time, he felt a little frightened when he saw Cheng Jiayi eating candy so much.
"The energy in our daily food is what our bodies need as ordinary people. When crystals suddenly appear, the nutrients stored in the body are not enough, because the crystals not only need a large amount of nutrients, but also transfer the nutrients absorbed by the body to another special substance for absorption. We originally called it X-1. ”
"And X-2?" Du Yiyi asked.
"Yes. Our current technology can only distinguish this substance that our body itself does not have, and what kind of substance it is has not been distinguished before I went abroad. Moreover, this substance cannot be synthesized, nor is it monolithic.
This converted energy changes as the color of the crystal changes. Mutants with different crystal levels have different components of substances that are synthesized and absorbed in their bodies.
What we now know is that crystals should be divided into at least seven grades according to color, that is, we are currently familiar with the seven spectrums of nature. But whether the final evolution will be white or black is still inconclusive.
We find some colorless crystals in plants, but whether they are colorless or colored, each crystal requires different amounts of energy. You should be mindful of your body, we have long since been unable to absorb enough nutrients from the ordinary food we had before the mutation. This is why the original mutants would attack their own kind, because the nutrients were plundered and the brain was extremely lacking in energy, causing confusion in the mind and the inability to control the body's instinct to eat.
Then, after the emergence of a large number of mutant plants and the fact that we have replenished enough energy in time, the crystals can be fully replenished from the energy transformed by the food we eat, and correspondingly, our bodies have evolved to adapt to the presence and predation of crystals.
One of them is the need to eat high-energy things, that is, mutated foods, and the body's demand for nutrients has also increased significantly, not only cholesterol, but also many energy needs are several times higher than before. ”
"That's the case, so as the color of the crystal changes, our requirements for eating are getting higher and higher?" Du Yiyi.
"Theoretically, that's true. But the body of living beings has not been thoroughly studied, mutated, and crystals come so suddenly, that we can not even compare theory and practice with fur. Doctor Liu Jun said.
"So, you didn't catch mutants in the island country for research?" Du Yiyi asked.
"Hehe," Doctor Liu smiled, "our task is to report all the unusual phenomena we find to the top. ”
This answer is intriguing.
What is an "unusual phenomenon"? Cheng Jiayi doesn't count like this.
"Are cannibals unusual?" Du Yiyi really asked.
"Count." Doctor Liu was clean and neat.
Du Yiyi and Cheng Jiayi both waited for Doctor Liu to continue, but Doctor Liu stopped.
"What else?" Du Yiyi waited for a while, but didn't wait for the next step, so he had to ask.
"What else? Oh, you said after reporting. Our principle is to try not to destroy the value of living organisms. How to say this, I have also observed cannibal flowers along the way, in fact, the existence of cannibal flowers is also normal.
You all know that in the primeval forest, man-eating flowers and man-eating trees all exist, this mutation is around all the creatures of the earth, after the mutation of plants, the nutrients of the land are not enough to maintain their survival, plants turn to get energy from animals, and start preying on animals, which is understandable.
It's just that it's the first time I've seen a man-eating flower as a pet. Doctor Liu laughed, "This simply can't be explained by ordinary words." Boss Cheng, how do you turn a flower into your pet? ”
Following the topic, Doctor Liu finally had a chance to ask.
"I was swallowed by it, and then probably my meat was not tasty, and it spit me out again, and then I saw that its flowers were beautiful, so I took it, and finally it was like that."
Cheng Jiayi is downcast.
She was absolutely right, the process was like this, but she didn't say the details, she didn't mention the "firefly" that could laugh and glow, she didn't mention that she almost died, no, she was dead and alive, and she lost her memory.
Doctor Liu looked at the huge buds, food sacs, and esophagus of the man-eating flower standing on the side shaking its head and tail in disbelief, and imagined the picture of Cheng Jiayi being swallowed in it.
"But ...... between you," Doctor Liu organized the language, "it can understand what you mean and understand your words?" ”
Cheng Jiayi also looked sideways at the man-eating flower, to be honest, she didn't know how the man-eating flower could understand what she meant, in other words, she couldn't understand what the man-eating flower wanted to do.
Not exactly, if the cannibal flower is hungry, she still knows.
She smiled: "The relationship between me and it can be counted as an 'unusual phenomenon'." ”
"It's not just counting, it's not counting anymore." Doctor Liu smiled heartily, "Don't worry about the boss, there are a large number of unusual phenomena reported every day, and our principle is to protect and induce strengthening." ”
Looking at Cheng Jiayi and Du Yiyi's puzzled expressions, Doctor Liu said again: "No one can say what the current situation is, but it is not a good phenomenon to think that such an extra crystal has in our heads out of thin air."
There is a process of evolution, this is the law of nature, so that what suddenly appears overnight can only be a mutation. If crystals are just what makes the creature stronger, we can also look to the nature of the creature to find the reason. But now, crystals do so much that they can even be used as a super energy source.
Once something is involved with interests, this thing will become the target of capital pursuit. There are so many things that can be replaced by super energy, but this super energy is not buried in the ground, and it is not only in plants and animals.
What does this mean? In the eyes of a certain species that prompts us to evolve or mutate, we human beings are no different from plants, birds and animals in nature. ”
