Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Origin
If you want to say that the most untouchable thing in the world, except for nuclear weapons, it is biological and chemical weapons. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Because biological and chemical weapons can cause a large number of human deaths if they are not careful, and they are extremely contagious. Not to mention those that can be transmitted through contact with each other in people, the most terrible thing is that they can be transmitted in the air, and can infect all life and destroy the environment.
Of course Delos wouldn't do such a horrible thing, and he wasn't capable of doing it at the moment. The weapon he wants to do is a branch of biological and chemical weapons, biological weapons.
And this biological weapon of choice is naturally the biggest asset of the international genomic technology company...... Dinosaur.
When John Hammond came up with this dinosaur, although many people were keen on dinosaurs and wanted to use dinosaurs as weapons, they eventually gave up.
What is the reason?
Of course, it's because of the cost performance.
Dinosaurs can be easily killed by thermal weapons, even large dinosaurs that can be attacked in ancient times can be easily killed by thermal weapons. Compared with humans, dinosaurs basically did not have many strategic advantages except for being more lethal than humans.
Just to feed a dinosaur, you have to find a way to spend a lot of money to solve the huge amount of food of the dinosaurs. Secondly, taming a few dinosaurs not only takes years, but also costs a lot of money, and dinosaurs often behave disobediently in this case.
In contrast, the human soldiers who spend the same price to cultivate and train are not only obedient and efficient in execution, but also many times more numerous. In this comparison, in addition to the enormous value of these dinosaurs in terms of attracting sight, the value of weaponization could not be worse.
And what Delos has to do is to raise the strategic value of the weaponization of a single dinosaur from the level of waste to the level of an army of one enemy ten, one enemy of hundred, or even one enemy of a thousand, and even a nuclear weapon level of one enemy and one enemy of ten thousand!
When this level is reached, how many people on the earth dare to ask him for trouble?
The potential of the serum is unlimited, and a mutated spider serum alone can bring such great benefits to Delos, so what about when the serum is applied to dinosaurs?
Instead of considering the carnivorous dinosaurs of the Tyrannosaurus rex, which are particularly large, consider dinosaurs about the size of individual humans. When the serum is applied to them, they are invulnerable, and even have all kinds of systematic and incomparably complex superpowers. Once this dinosaur is a charging warrior, what will it be like?
Just thinking about it made Delos's heart burn.
However, what Delos needs to do now is how to design a dinosaur about the size of a human to have the ability to maneuver extremely and not be afraid of ordinary bullet damage.
According to the information compiled from the notebook of Richard Parker in his memory, although it is indirectly through the specific body fluids of animals, the human body can be transformed as much as possible without harm to the body and without deformation, so as to obtain great power.
Similarly, this gene transplantation technique can be directly applied to direct reinforcement in other animals. Because there are so many unsolved mysteries about genes, Delos has to put all the gene transplantation and gene configuration methods that have been introduced on the simulation device for simulation testing one by one. Otherwise, if you are not careful, it will not only be a matter of letting the subject die, but will likely make the subject go berserk directly. Just like Dr. Connors had done before.
It wasn't easy to solve the problem of madness, but Delos thought of something else.
At the mention of this, Delos had to sigh again at the genius of Richard Parker. In general, Richard Parker is using the mutations of other species to indirectly make the human body safely mutate.
So since other animals can be used to indirectly make the permanent mutation of the human body safe, can other animals be used to indirectly make the dinosaurs also safe and permanent mutation?
It is not for nothing that Delos dares to think so. Although he copied Richard Parker's approach to the spider serum to a large extent, that doesn't mean that Delos didn't understand the ins and outs of these mutation processes.
Take the first generation of test subjects as an example, although there are many reasons why the first generation test subjects are easy to go crazy after mutation, the main problem is still in the immune mechanism.
In the process of making serum, in order to make it easier to combine hybrid genes and quickly combine with the human body, the whole production process is carried out in some environments full of radioactive elements. So after the serum is combined with the test subject. The combined genes are very active and aggressive, corrupting the subject's genes like a virus, multiplying on them, and causing the genes to recombine little by little. At the end of the day, it becomes a new genetic strand.
At the same time, the immune mechanism of the experimental subject is also at work, but because of the strong erosive nature of the combined genes, the immune mechanism plays a very limited role, so the experimental body will complete a new mutation in just a few days. Moreover, with the erosion of the combined genes, the rejection of the combined genes by the immune mechanism will become stronger and stronger, which will make the experimental subjects show symptoms of madness.
When the erosion reaches a certain level, these combined genes will tamper with the eroded immune mechanism little by little, just like a computer virus, and then establish a new immune mechanism. Then there is the erosion of the new and old immune mechanisms, both of which treat each other as if they were viruses. During this phase, the subject's symptoms of madness are the most severe, severe enough to devour blood, attempting to destroy everything around them.
It's just that this kind of madness, which can be called hemophagocytosis, will only occur in a short period of time, and under the erosion of combined genes, the old immune mechanism will be defeated very quickly. As a result, after a few days have passed, the subject will safely pass through the mutation phase. However, in this case, the genetic structure of the subject is still not very stable. This instability leads to increased aggression in the subjects, which is why they are allowed to mate with each other, resulting in a second generation of genetically stable subjects.
The advantage of the second-generation test subjects is not only that the genetic structure is stable, but also that the serum extracted from the second-generation test body can cause human mutation, so that the body's immune mechanism can accept the mutation without detecting any abnormality. In this way, unless it is a psychological problem after the mutation, there will be no side effects such as mental loss of control and aggression.
In order to prevent his research from being used indiscriminately by others, Richard Parker added his own specific genes to it. It's like adding an ID verification device to the serum, if it weren't for Richard Parker's blood relative, these serums, once injected into the body, would make the body's immune mechanism rebel wildly. This leads to insanity and even death. Of course, the latter outcome is the more common scenario.
The reason why the Super Antivenom Serum made from Lex's blood as the main material can be used by everyone without side effects is that Delos removed the specific genes that belonged to Lex from the serum. Secondly, the combination of Lex's mutated genes and other genetic materials makes it easier for the body's immune mechanism to accept than other foreign genes. Therefore, when Delos made this serum, he did not need to go through the trouble of cultivating other mutant animals.
Now, if Delos wants to promote the safe and stable mutation of the dinosaurs, what he needs to do is to make the resistance of the dinosaurs' immune mechanism to the serum close to none, and there will not even be any rejection. To do this, he specifically looked for a species that had some of the same genes as dinosaurs, frogs.
It would be impossible to say that dinosaurs tens of millions of years ago had many places in the gene chain like frogs. But in modern times, these dinosaur genes extracted by scientists have many defects in the gene chain, and the missing parts are extracted and completed from the genes of frogs and other frog organisms.
In this case, frogs and other frogs are best suited to study primary serum. The only thing that Delos had to do was to analyze the combinations step by step, and then make the serum step by step.

Looking at the dinosaur egg the size of an adult's palm in front of him as it shattered little by little, a hint of intoxication flashed in Delos's eyes.
Eventually, a fifth of the dinosaur egg was torn open, revealing the small half of the dinosaur cub's head. Although he was still young, the golden beast pupils and thin sharp teeth that were exposed already foreshadowed the other party's future hideousness.
"Giggle...... Giggle......"
Looking at Delos as it appeared in his eyes, the dinosaur cub let out a roar that heralded the former's success......
