The old horse is busy, and on the other side, the monkey is not easy.

Eight or nine days ago, he received an assignment from Murong Yue, asking him to study those pots of mutant plants.

The monkey is engaged in biochemistry, and he is also one of the heads of the base laboratory, so he immediately gathered the people in the laboratory and rolled up his sleeves to do it.

As early as before the end of the world, the Murong family had collected a list of the top elites and scientists in various industries. In order not to attract attention, the Murong family only gathered some people, and some people used various ways to let them take the medicine unconsciously.

Of course, the elite who were attached to the opponent, the Murong family did not have much trouble for themselves.

After the end of the world, Murong Yue sent many teams to pick up these talents, and now, although the talents of the southwest base are not as good as those of Huaguo before the end of the world, they are definitely the first in the bases.

Of the surviving talents, at least half are at the Southwestern base.

The monkey is only responsible for the biochemical branch, but there are hundreds of people under his command. What botany, zoology, microbiology, neurology, histology, anatomy, etc., are all under biochemistry.

Scientists from all walks of life come together, and that's how much they have.

Before the end of the world, the discovery of a new species can definitely cause an uproar in the academic world, and after the end of the world, new species that have mutated seem to be everywhere, except for the curiosity at the beginning, and then they can no longer arouse people's curiosity, and even, they have to worry that these plants will cause trouble for everyone.

But for scientists, this is not the case, what is the reason for the large-scale mutation of species? What are the similarities and differences between the mutated plants and those before the mutation? Are the mutated plants still the same as they were before the mutation? What new value do they have after mutation?

These are all questions that scientists want to explore.

They want to find out the general laws of mutant plants, but the research time is still short, and they have only studied some of the most superficial, more in-depth, I am afraid it will take a long time, years, decades, hundreds of years, all possible.

The laboratories of the base, which have an above-ground part and an underground part. The above-ground part is a relatively simple research that is also to deal with the spies in the base, and the underground part is the core research laboratory of the base.

The underground part was built long before the base was built, and the facilities inside were the same as before the end of the world, with neat and smooth floors and walls, sterile laboratories, instruments everywhere, and people in every small laboratory room busy with their own business.

Everyone wears sterile gowns or lab coats, and most of them are over forty years old, but they are hurried and energetic, shuttling from lab to lab.

The pots of mutant plants that Lian Zi gave to Murong Yue were asked by him to be studied as top secrets.

Because there is only one plant of each mutant plant, scientists do not dare to dissect it, so they can only conduct external observations first, and then take some leaves and rhizomes for further research.

Scientists want to breed new plant tissues or plants according to the totipotency of plant tissues in order to obtain more samples, but after the mutant plants mutate, not all plants still have the characteristics of the original plants, so the failures are the majority, and the successes are very few.

"There are results." An old man who looked to be in his sixties and seventies, holding the report in his hand, hurried up to the monkey and reported the results of the study to him.

His face was mostly obscured by a mask and glasses, but from the glint in his eyes, you could imagine how excited he was.
