Chapter 298: Strengthened Body
"Cell activity is higher than that of ordinary people!?" Yuan Haochen asked in surprise, "So, is there any problem with the structure and functional characteristics of my cells?" ā
"Everything else looks normal!" Dr. Minchi replied, "Don't worry, you're still human, and you're not mutated. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
"This ......," Yuan Haochen pondered, "it seems that there is indeed something wrong with my body. ā
"Similarly, the longevity and activity of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets in your blood has been greatly improved." Dr. Minchi added, "In particular, the oxygen-carrying capacity of red blood cells has increased dramatically!! ā
"Significant improvement in oxygen-carrying capacity!?" Yuan Haochen quickly reacted, "Because the activity of cells increases, more oxygen needs to be consumed, and such changes should be complementary. ā
"You're right!" Dr. Minchi agreed.
"Let me take a look at your experimental data and culture samples!" Yuan Haochen said bluntly.
"If you don't say it, I'll want you to see it too!" Dr. Minchi replied.
After Dr. Mingqi finished speaking, he threw Yuan Haochen a set of white coats, and after various disinfections, the two entered a fully enclosed laboratory.
"Every time your tissue cells reproduce, I keep a corresponding sample and conduct a controlled study." Dr. Mingqi helped Yuan Haochen observe these samples with a super microscope, and carefully explained, "In addition to physical factors, such as ionizing radiation, X-rays, and chemical factors, which can induce distortion in living cells, in the process of reproduction, the cell's own life activities will also cause chromosomal aberration, especially for elderly people like me. ā
"However, experiments and observations have found that the stability of your cultured tissue cells is extremely high in each generation, and there are almost no cases of aberration. Moreover, in the process of replication of these tissue cells, just like cancer cells and sex cells, there is basically no loss of telomeres of chromosomes. "In addition, the results of the study found that the process of producing free radicals during the metabolism of these cells was significantly inhibited. ā
Yuan understands the significance of the inhibition of free radicals, which are intermediate products of normal cell metabolism and have a strong ability to react, which can oxidize a variety of substances in cells and damage biofilms. It can also cross-link proteins, nucleic acids and other macromolecules, affecting their normal function.
"To sum up, the reason why you look so young now is not just due to long hibernation and near-light-speed interstellar travel. There are also some unknown reasons why you may become an immortal monster! Science is great, life is wonderful!! ā
Dr. Minchi concluded.
Yuan took his eyes off the super microscope and asked, "Dr. Mingqi, what do you think is the reason for the significant increase in the viability and lifespan of my tissue cells?" ā
"I'm sorry, we just know what it is, not why!" Dr. Minchi frowned and replied, "I can't find out the reason through experimental research, and with our current science and technology, we can't understand the mystery. Moreover, this result confuses me!! ā
"Confused? I'm confused too! Yuan Haochen complained.
Two images appeared strangely in Yuan Haochen's mind.
One picture is the scene of the Genesis 8 artificial intelligence devouring the neuronal network of Princess Hanyue's brain and transforming her body in the Sun Tomb of the Ancient Kingdom of Loulan on a dark and windy night.
"Whew---"
The Genesis 8 artificial intelligence suddenly sank into Princess Hanyue's head. Then Princess Hanyue's body shook violently as if it had been struck by a burst of strong electricity, and quickly convulsed. The bulging muscles beneath the corpse's face were constantly turning.
The picture that was as creepy as a corpse, terrifying, and like an abyss, Yuan Haochen still remembers it vividly.
The other picture is that he picked up a strange meteorite that rolled down from the mountain and fell to the earth at an unknown time by the Sun Moon Stream, and then watched the fluorescence gradually disappear and the mysterious energy melted into his body.
"I'm confused because your tissue cells exhibit two contradictory situations!" Dr. Mingqi's deep voice interrupted Hara's train of thought.
"Contradictory situations of mutual divergence!?" Yuan Haochen asked rhetorically.
"With the current medical strength, it is possible to artificially and rapidly increase the activity of cells and organisms by relying on drug stimulation, so that they can burst out with high energy in a short period of time. However, the consequence of this is tantamount to burning the life force in advance, which is a practice of drinking water to quench thirst, which will inevitably lead to serious damage to the health of cells or organisms, and rapid death. Dr. Minchi continued.
"From another point of view, if we want to prolong the lifespan of living organisms, we should try to reduce the activity of living organisms and inhibit their metabolic levels, just like our hibernation system." Dr. Mingqi glanced at Yuan Haochen in confusion and said in disbelief, "However, what appears on your tissue cells is that while the activity is greatly enhanced, the lifespan is not only not reduced, but is extended indefinitely!" What energies are underpinning this contradictory phenomenon? ā
"It's really contradictory!"
Yuan Haochen also fell into deep thought, he couldn't be clearer about his situation, maybe it was that mysterious energy that strengthened every cell of his body, opened his originally dull brain, and even his various senses and body functions were greatly improved.
"You're not going to be AI 8, are you!?" Dr. Minchi asked suddenly, strangely.
"I'll go! Do you feel like it? ā
Yuan Haochen understood the subtext of Dr. Mingqi's words, he was questioning whether he had devoured Yuan Haochen's Genesis Artificial Intelligence No. 8, and he had been hiding his true identity.
"Not like! After all, after so many years, if you were the number 8 of artificial intelligence, you should have already shown your feet! Dr. Minchi shook his head thoughtfully and continued, "Could it be that AI 8 modified your body in the process of devouring you, but ultimately failed to control your brain?" ā
"The situation you are talking about is a possibility!"
Yuan Haochen couldn't be sure that although Genesis Artificial Intelligence No. 8 was one of the reasons for the abnormal changes in his body, he himself was more inclined to the energy influence of the mysterious meteorite. After all, after Yuan Haochen obtained this energy, his physical condition had been greatly changed.
"It's incredible!" Dr. Minchi sighed with a look of regret, "How did the Creator do this?" Why don't we get the relevant science and technology? ā
"It's a pity that the technology for the alien doctor to use dark matter and dark energy to build a non-physical carrier for artificial intelligence has not been found."
Some information about the alien doctor resurfaced in Yuan Haochen's mind. When he found the laboratory of the alien doctor on Saturn, he also looked for related technology with great anticipation, but in the end he found nothing.
"Why didn't the alien doctor leave behind scientific and technical information related to artificial intelligence?" Yuan Haochen thought to himself, "Does he have any concerns?" ā
