Chapter 182: Genes and Evolution
"I remember someone saying that humans can be smarter!" Qin Fei was a little puzzled. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn this day and age, people's pursuit of ingenuity even overrides the pursuit of life; After all, the problem of longevity cannot be seen in a short period of time, but the problem of IQ can be effective and change life in a short time.
"That's a higher realm. When you get to the Golden Warrior, when your mental power is strong enough, you can use your mental power to transport the cells in your body, for example, you can shape bones into computer chip structures. If you have computer power all over your bones, can you imagine what that would look like?
But one thing to remember is that being smart and being smart are two different things, and even if all the cells in your body are made into computer chips, you can only say that you are smarter and have a larger memory. Wisdom, on the other hand, is another matter, many people can see the essence of things at a glance, and some people can draw inferences; These are wisdoms. Wisdom includes intelligence, but it is by no means only intelligence, and the exploration of wisdom is still being studied.
Of course, don't be too ambitious now, and then consolidate it first. What you need now is to choose and turn on your genes and strengthen your foundation to become a higher-level lifeform. "Things always need to come little by little, Qin Fei still has a long, long way to go, at least the most important thing now is to choose the genes to open.
This time, Qin Fei's consolidation time lasted for more than a month, and this was also the best time to open the gene. In the past month, the cells of Qin Fei's whole body are being renewed, which is a change that cannot be fully understood by scientific means; This is the fundamental process of change in life, that is, with the help of life changes in this process, the gene sequence can be opened.
Generally speaking, when the mental power, that is, the life force, is sufficient, it will promote the cells to move closer to a higher level.
In fact, there is a precedent for this, and this is the famous Cambrian biological explosion. According to research, the most important thing in the Cambrian explosion is oxygen! When oxygen in the atmosphere reaches a critical point, oxidation promotes the acquisition of more energy for life, which in turn triggers an explosion of life. It should be said that it is the most obvious example of the relationship between energy and life (evolution).
And now, in the second evolution, the higher evolution of life is similar; However, it was oxidation at the beginning. And now it's the electromagnetic force -- which goes a step further than oxidation. Stimulated by this powerful force, life moves to a higher level.
To put it bluntly, this is actually similar to the Industrial Revolution; The steam engine and steam power contributed to the first industrial revolution, and the internal combustion engine mechanized warfare. The use of electricity has allowed us to truly start to dominate the world.
When the magnetic field of life is strong enough and the spiritual power is strong enough, life will also undergo a huge transformation, and this is the Evolver!
And if the mental power is not enough, or even no spiritual power at all, relying entirely on external scientific and technological power to promote evolution is actually boosting the seedlings. This is the so-called "pseudo-evolutionary", that is, the evolutionary in the general sense, the folk evolutionary.
And if the spiritual power is strong enough to trigger the "spontaneous" evolution of life, it is the evolution from the inside out, and when technology only plays a certain auxiliary role, it is the real evolution - just like Qin Fei, this is the real essence of the second evolutionary era, and each of them is the elite of the era.
Of course, Qin Fei is a bit special, this guy started to infuse his mental power in the state of an ordinary person, and his spiritual power and vitality are a mess.
However, strong is strong, Qin Fei still needs to come step by step now. Only by recuperating the body, choosing the genes that are turned on, and then going through adaptive training, can we truly complete evolution and become the elite and pillar of society.
At this moment, Gu Qingyan was patiently explaining to Qin Fei the matters to be paid attention to when choosing genes. The gene sequence in the human body theoretically contains all the superior information of 3.5 billion years of evolution, but the method of gene storage information is complex, not a simple base pair sequence, and there are some cross-influences.
For example, one genome is responsible for speed, and one genome is responsible for sensitivity; The combination of these two genomes creates an "explosion" of information. If multiple groups of genes are crossed, more and more information can be recorded; One billionth of a gram of genes can record a dictionary. Theoretically, the genes in the human body can record all the information that human beings have ever had!
But this way of recording is complex, and it can take hundreds of years for scientists to decipher it little by little.
Now, scientists have deciphered 8 million complete genetic information from human genes. Just like the mythical dragon phoenix unicorn. Human beings also have an innate inheritance, but if you want to obtain this inheritance, you need to rely on strong scientific and technological power.
But...... Well, again, however, there is a limit to the genetic sequences that evolutionaries can choose. Theoretically, every evolution can turn on genes once; From Iron Warrior to Golden Warrior (if one can reach the Gold Warrior level) can only activate genes 9×3 times, which is why Iron Warrior, Silver Warrior, and Gold Warrior level Evolvers are divided into nine levels. As for why this is such a coincidence. Scientists can only say - we are still exploring.
8 million genetic information, but can only be selected 27 times, so each evolutionary must choose carefully to maximize the effect.
The influence between each genetic information and the genetic information that is already turned on in the first place, and what kind of cross-influence will occur in future development, requires complex calculations. Eventually, all the data needs to be fed into the supercomputer. After all the calculations are completed, and then the final selection is carried out according to personal preferences, it can be completely determined.
It can be said that every true evolutionary is cultivated with the strength of the country.
"It's so complicated!" Qin Fei also gasped, finally knowing why those golden warriors were so cautious about themselves and others. It turned out that he had unknowingly become a 'national treasure'.
"What do you think?" Gu Qingyan was a little naughty, "I still recommend that you choose the longevity gene sequence, but I suggest you choose the gene sequence of the lighthouse jellyfish." Because the genetic sequence of the lighthouse jellyfish has an accompanying ability, which is the ability to regenerate.
Lighthouse jellyfish are technically hydroids, and this type of life has a strong ability to regenerate. If you succeed in activating it, then theoretically, as long as you can sustain your life, even if your internal organs are hollowed out, you can still grow quickly. ”
"Isn't this Prometheus?" Qin Fei made a little joke.
"Listen to me!" Gu Qingyan glared at Qin Fei fiercely, "However, the genetic sequence of the lighthouse jellyfish has a shortcoming, that is, reverse growth. Lighthouse jellyfish are able to live long because they grow for a certain period of time, and they will grow in reverse. And for evolutionaries, although they will not return to the infant state, they will also have a certain impact.
I have a little bit of a record here. There was one person who went backwards the most, and during the period of reverse growth, he fell all the way from the golden warrior to the silver warrior; But after all, the foundation, that is, the spiritual power of the non-material form, is still there, and after three years, he will be re-promoted to the Golden Warrior; And even more powerful. ”
"Who?" Qin Fei had a strong curiosity that was common to his age.
"Secret, these things can't be talked about. If the enemy knows about it, it will be dangerous to deduce the weakening period of the golden warrior. ”
"Okay. If you return to the Silver Warrior and re-advance, will you be able to open the gene again? ”
"My head is spinning fast. But it's impossible. At the beginning, the golden warrior also wanted to turn on the gene again, and almost caused systemic cancer. For the forces of nature, we still need to maintain a little reverence. ”
"Longevity genes, apart from lighthouse jellyfish, is there anything else?"
"Yes, the most representative ones at the moment are a turtle and a redwood tree. The longest-lived turtle known can live to be more than a thousand years old. Then there are the sequoia trees, the longest-lived known sequoia trees that can live for more than 10,000 years. In fact, the genetic sequence of most plant life has a long life. The grasses that are common in our parks can even multiply indefinitely. ”
"Wouldn't it be better to choose the genetic sequence of plants?"
"Then you can lie like a plant for the rest of your life, you can talk a word for a day, and your head will be fever when you think about complicated things a little."
"Uh...... And what about the tortoise's? ”
"The genetic sequence of the turtle is suitable for pure researchers, less vigorous and a little slower. I guess you don't like to spend your whole life in a research lab. ”
"Teacher Gu chose the turtle's longevity gene sequence code?"
"You want to die!" Gu Qingyan suddenly looked like an angry lion.
(Guess what, what longevity gene is better for Gu Qingyan?) (To be continued.) )
