Chapter 185: Venom Suit Conjecture (Ask for Subscription~)
"Dr. Connors, are you sure no one has ever been possessed by this thing?"
Delos looked at the black liquid in front of him, and asked Dr. Connors on the side with some uncertainty, "You didn't let that thing parasitize any creatures, did you?" ”
"Of course, I've seen this parasite come out of an eggshell when it landed. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn order to avoid being discovered by others, I immediately used the utensils I carried with me to bring back this little guy who can be said to be a miracle. ”
Dr. Connors looked at Delos with wide eyes and said, "This is a once-in-a-hundred, or even thousand-year-old event of alien creatures visiting Earth, how can I mess around out of curiosity like those superficial scientists?" ”
"Aren't you possessed?" Hearing this, Delos tugged at the corners of his mouth, pointed to the black liquid that had been moving towards Dr. Connors in the vessel since just now, and said, "I found that this parasite seems to like you very much. ”
(PS: Dr. Connors is not yet aware that this single-celled organism is a symbiont and is not a parasite that is harmful to the host.) In order to avoid Dr. Connors's suspicions, Delos can only pretend that he does not know that the Venom suit is a symbiote. )
"Of course not."
Dr. Connors smiled and shook his head, then leaned down to the vessel and looked at the liquid in it with some obsession, and said, "This little thing was only about 10 milliliters when it was born, so it's quite easy to collect." After that, I fed this little cutie some nutrient solution, and the more I fed it, the bigger it became, and now it should think of me as a father. ”
Delos nodded, and he remembered that the single-celled creature in front of him was born from an eggshell on Battle Star. This means that the symbiote in this state has no negative emotions in the spiritual plane except for the parasitism of instinct, so that even if he himself becomes a host, he will not be disturbed by the spirit in it.
"Do you have a collection of eggshells?"
Delos suddenly thought of a question, looked at Dr. Connors and said, "Since this parasite can come to Earth, there should be some teleportation device, such as a spaceship or something." ”
Hearing this, Dr. Connors nodded, "I've thought about this question too, but I haven't found any teleportation devices around the concrete pavement where it was found. However, I found a lot of meteorite fragments that were gradually burned into nothingness due to the high temperature. ”
Speaking of this, Dr. Connors sighed with some regret and said:
"As for the eggshells, there is no way to collect them, and when this little guy escapes the eggshells, the eggshells begin to decay and disappear quickly. I was worried that someone else would find out about this little guy and left quickly. ”
"That's a shame."
As a biologist, Delos knew how valuable the eggshells left behind by such a living organism were.
However, compared to the 'liquid suit' in front of you, not collecting eggshells can only be regarded as a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning.
You must know that this 'liquid suit' is equivalent to a priceless treasure, if he can improve and 'mass-produce' this 'liquid suit', then this 'liquid suit' can handle almost all situations unless there are very few cases.
"I've tried to sample this little guy in the past few months."
Speaking of this, Dr. Connors couldn't help but smile bitterly: "But this little guy's parasitic nature is too strong, and there have been several times when I have just opened the lid, this thing has tried to jump out and parasitize on me. So at the end of the day, I couldn't take even a little bit of a sample out of it for experiments. ”
"It's easy to say about experiments, it's easy to do with good enough props." Delos shrugged and said, "But before we do that, maybe we should try to replicate or reproduce this parasite first." ”
Unexpectedly, Dr. Connors shook his head and said, "Parasites can only reproduce by parasitizing on other organisms, but we don't know if organisms on Earth are harmful to parasites. You must know that we only have this one parasite in our hands, and if we make a mistake, we will not even have time to regret it. ”
"Not necessarily."
Delos shook his head and said, "Didn't you say that this parasite survived and grew on the nutrient solution you gave it?" Is this parasite still growing now? ”
"I know what you mean."
As soon as Delos mentioned this, Dr. Connors knew what he was going to say.
"I've experimented with how this little guy grows faster when he absorbs the nutrient solution of multicellular organisms. So for a while I used to feed it in large quantities some nutrient solutions for multicellular organisms. But you see, it turns out that since a month ago, this little guy has grown to such an extent that he doesn't grow anymore. ”
"You know what? Dr. Connors. ”
Delos patted Dr. Connors on the shoulder and said, "I've got some inspiration from the Lizard Regeneration Serum you mentioned last time. Although it is not related to the production of serum, if this kind of thing is successfully made, it is likely to directly replenish vitality or accelerate limb healing. I think this new project might help propagate this parasite, wouldn't you mind working on it with me? ”
Hearing this, Dr. Connors's eyes lit up, "That's for sure, but I think you must have made some progress to say that, right?" ”
"Of course." Delos smiled and nodded, "But I still have two materials to go." ”
"What is it?" Dr. Connors subconsciously asked, "I still know a certain amount about that rich friend of yours, and if he doesn't get this material for you, it means that this material is really troublesome." ”
'If you know my current rights and abilities, I guess the level of trouble in your mind will increase by a few more steps. ’
Delos secretly complained in his heart as he explained, "It's the nanomedical organization and the heart-shaped herb from Wakanda, both of which can be considered national prohibitions. ”
"I haven't heard of the heart-shaped herb from Wakanda, but I've heard of some of it from the Nano Medical Organization." Dr. Connors nodded, and sighed a little, "I heard that Dr. Bruce Banner and Dr. Betty Ross made it together, but the related life fusion experiments have not been successful. Not only that, but after Dr. Bruce Banner later disappeared for unknown reasons, the project was hidden. ”
"That's right."
Delos smiled, "It's a bit of a hassle to get these two materials, but it's not difficult for me. It's just that I've been busy with other things before, and I can't do these things. ”
"You mean stealing?"
Dr. Connors's face flickered a little puzzled, "Isn't that okay?" ”
The idea that he, as a well-known biologist, would use something he stole was a little difficult for Dr. Connors to accept.
"Uh...... There's no way around it, I can't just do anything like that decay rate algorithm. We don't have that much time left, and if we don't try to get ahead of others, we will be limited everywhere in the future. ”
Delos explained with some embarrassment, and he sighed that he was glad he hadn't told him about peeking at Richard Parker's notebook, otherwise it might have been very unpleasant.
"We only need a few samples and materials to produce them in large quantities. What's more, what we do is not only for our own benefit, but also for the benefit of others, isn't it? ”
Delos looked at Dr. Connors, whose expression was a little shaken, and hurriedly continued to persuade:
"And it's still good for our plan, after making this potion, even if it's a weakened version, we can sell it at a price that is neither too high nor too low. Wouldn't it be great to be able to become billionaires and benefit humanity as a whole while keeping ourselves and our loved ones safe? ”
With that, Delos waited for Dr. Connors' answer. After several minutes, Connors replied with a look of embarrassment:
"I'm sorry."
Hearing this, Delos's heart tightened, and he thought that Dr. Connors had rejected the approach. But then Dr. Connors's next words took him from hell to heaven.
"My personality makes it difficult for you, but it's okay to do that."
Dr. Connors's face was slightly embarrassed and bitter, "I know you, Delos, you are not the kind of person who is full of aggression. Unless it is a last resort, you will resort to peaceful bargaining to solve the problem. Actually, when I agreed to join you, I thought that some of our ways of doing things might not be so glamorous, but I won't be so quick to accept it for a while. ”
Without waiting for Delos to answer, Dr. Connors hurriedly said, "But don't worry, I'll accept it as soon as possible." ”
"Don't be nervous, Doctor." Seeing that Dr. Connors hesitated for this reason, Delos subconsciously comforted Dr. Connors while breathing a sigh of relief.
"This is the reaction of every person with a conscience, and I am glad and honored that my teacher is such a person."
To be honest, Delos was very worried about the breakdown of the teacher-student friendship between the two because of his own behavior. So when I learned that the reason was this, I couldn't help but rejoice in my heart that Dr. Connors belonged to the kind of more enlightened people.
"Me too." It seems that because of what he said, Dr. Connors was in a much better mood: "I'm proud of a student like you, too. ”
"Then let's hurry up."
After ascertaining Dr. Connors' full support, Delos was in a good mood. He handed Dr. Connors a high-tech bright silver watch and smiled, "This is the new lab's credentials, and I promise you'll love that lab's ......" (to be continued.) )
