Chapter 150: Life Sciences—Strengthening the Human Body (II
Chapter 150 Life Sciences - Human Enhancement (2)
After passing through five sealed doors, Chen Peilin and Zhuge Wushuang finally came to the destination of this trip. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoA middle-aged biological scientist appeared in front of Chen Peilin. This place has gone beyond the confines of the clean room and belongs to the daily office area. The surrounding sterile rooms are all isolated with sealed glass, so that you can not only see the every move of the researchers inside, but also do not have to worry about contamination.
It is also very dangerous to engage in biological research, many laboratories are studying all kinds of super viruses, bacteria and other terrifying things, once a leak occurs, if it is not dealt with in time, the entire life science institute will have to be buried. The purpose of making the laboratory transparent is to be able to detect problems in the event of a failure of the monitoring system and reduce losses.
The scientist's name is Paleton, a biology cow that Lu Yingying knew during her doctoral studies, and was kidnapped by the shadow as early as when she was organizing the grass creation, and is still living a dark life. But now it has come to an end, and several years of research have finally achieved decisive success. His work will be a merit that will benefit all generations to come.
"We all know that the human organism provides energy through the redox action of mitochondria in cells. The presence of a wide variety of biological enzymes allows redox reactions in mitochondria to occur quickly under relatively mild conditions to meet the energy consumption of the body's life processes. A large part of this energy is used to drive the contraction of muscles throughout the body, and the other part is emitted in the form of heat to maintain the constancy of our body temperature.
However, after studying the life processes of intelligent beings in various civilizations during this time, we found that due to the different evolutionary environments of various civilizations, their physical qualities are also very different. For example, if the gravity of the home star is relatively high, the bone density of intelligent creatures will be correspondingly higher, and the bearing capacity will be much greater. The gravity environment of the home star is relatively low, and the bones of its intelligent creatures are looser, and the support force will be much smaller. Those with vigorous life activities and strong cell energy supply will be several levels stronger than those with moderate life activities in terms of explosive power, tolerance and even physical strength.
In addition, there are other comparisons. Finally, we found through experiments that a kind of energy that we call life energy released by living organisms through life activities plays a vital role in it. Whether it is adenosine triphosphate used in the process of human redox products or other chemicals used in other races, it is just a specific manifestation of this life energy. And through repeated research, we have been able to successfully produce this primitive life energy. And there has been an overall success in the experiment of clones.
We fill the culture chamber with the prepared nutrient mother liquor, and then put the fortified person into the culture chamber. The substances contained in the culture are gradually transmitted throughout the body through the skin and alveoli. In the process of transmission, the body is gradually strengthened. Yes, the bones of the human body have become denser and the metal content has increased. Actin, which makes up muscle fibers, is more elastic and the muscles have a stronger ability to contract. The number of desmosomes or even semi-desmosomes between the keratinocytes of the skin is more numerous, and the connection is more tight, making the skin more resilient and able to withstand hundreds of times greater impact than the original. Moreover, this mother liquor can also strengthen the oxidative respiratory chain of the human body, making the body's redox reaction more efficient, providing hundreds or thousands of times more energy per unit of time, and continuously replenishing the consumption of life energy......"
"What is the extent of a person's body after strengthening?" Zhuge Wushuang directly ignored the pile of scientific terms, and directly interrupted Paleton's gushing scientific research report and asked.
"Superman, the real Superman!" Paleton said excitedly.
"For example? Will it fly or not? Zhuge Wushuang asked teasingly.
"Well, not really. However, after being strengthened, ordinary gunpowder weapons no longer work on the human body. Of course, except for the fragile parts such as eyes and ears," Paleton's enthusiasm suddenly dropped because of Zhuge Wushuang's question.
"How many caliber bullets, can a 12.7mm sniper bullet withstand it?" Chen Peilin touched his chin and asked.
"It's okay if it's not fatal, but at most you'll get some minor injuries. However, because life can be strong, the wound will heal itself quickly. If it's a delicate part like the eye, it's absolutely deadly," Paleton replied.
"Huh? That's it? It's useless. Now that even electromagnetic rifles are used as light weapons in the army, is it useful to resist a gunpowder weapon? When encountering a more lethal electromagnetic projectile, it is better to knock it down with one shot," Zhuge Wushuang said disappointedly.
"No, it works. I don't think that's what Dr. Paleton meant when he said Superman. If you need to use your flesh to block bullets, what do you need to alloy your armor and individual energy shields, or even mechs? Dr. Paleton is referring to superman in terms of the physical strength of the soldier, am I right? Chen Peilin looked at Paleton and asked.
"Yes, yes, that's what it means. After strengthening, the quality of all aspects of the body will be comprehensively improved, and they will be able to run longer distances, be faster, have longer endurance, and even be able to withstand more harsh battlefield environments, such as higher gravity, or higher or lower air pressure, etc. We've even experimented with enhanced clones that remain alive after being rescued in a vacuum for five minutes.
And this kind of reinforcement has no side effects at all, just strengthening the corresponding abilities on the original body, etc., there is no problem of adding new ingredients, and even better is that this reinforcement can be stably passed on to future generations. That is to say, after the parent's generation is strengthened, the child will have such a physical quality after birth, and there is no need for repeated reinforcement at all. Of course, if the technology is upgraded in the future, it can still continue to be strengthened, and there is no such thing as resistance. Fearing that the higher-ups would think that his research was useless, Paleton hurriedly argued with reason.
"Are there really no side effects?" Chen Peilin asked suspiciously, his former graduate career made him know that there is absolutely no perfect technology, and the more advanced the technology, the greater the hidden danger.
"There's one," said Paleton after a moment's thought.
"What is it?" Chen Peilin asked nervously.
"The need for energy will be greater after the reinforcement. In peacetime, there is nothing, in wartime, if you do strenuous exercise, the energy consumption will be very fast, you need to eat from time to time to replenish energy, otherwise there will be a feeling of prostration, and the strength will be insufficient. It's like being hungry for a week," Paleton said.
"Whew...... Fortunately, there is no problem with this, it is a big deal to prepare high-energy fluid food for each soldier to carry with him when the time comes. Is there a problem with the large-scale promotion of this human augmentation technology in the short term? Chen Peilin asked.
"No problem at all. Moreover, in the case of mass production, with the improvement of technical processes, the progress will only get faster and faster, and even small manufacturing enterprises can complete it by themselves. The most important thing in this technology is the formulation of the mother liquor, and there is no problem with the large-scale synthesis of the mother liquor. If you can, you can even prepare a large amount of mother liquor, batch after batch of reinforced soldiers," Paleton replied.
"Very good, please arrange the promotion as soon as possible. If you have any needs, as long as it is reasonable, you can apply for deployment from the intelligent AI of the Academy of Life Sciences, and the organization will do its best to meet your needs. Chen Peilin said in surprise.
Once the human augmentation technology can be promoted on a large scale, the impact will be absolutely enormous. The number of armies has not increased, but the combat power has increased many times out of thin air. This is equivalent to the fleet having several times more troops out of thin air, which is undoubtedly a surprise for the military council, which is now worried about the expansion of the army. Chen Peilin can imagine how desperate the enemy will be when such an army appears on the battlefield.
Being able to receive such good news before the great enemy approached made Chen Peilin more confident out of thin air. But that's not enough, Hagrid Ludwig has been working on mechs for a long time. I'll check on how he's doing in a few days......
