Chapter 400: Research Scholars

"You're not God, you're just a pure academic, and I believe that what you just told me was told to you by someone else. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info" Zhao Li looked at Professor Hans, who was talking eloquently, and suddenly laughed.

"So, you're admitting that what I said is correct, aren't you?" Professor Hans laughed as well, as if he had won the game.

"Don't say whether your opinion is right or wrong, you first say what you haven't finished." Zhao Li still has a great grasp of Professor Hans's character, he is not a person who can say so many truths, presumably in his research process, there must be people who will instill many words in these aspects to him, with Professor Hans's research character, he is unlikely to be able to argue with the other party: "Let me know, what are those people's ideas?" ā€

"Looks like you know me well." Professor Hans was a little caught off guard by Zhao Li's sudden words. Zhao Li suddenly changed his position, which made him a little confused.

"Believe me, you're really just a pure researcher, and it's not your intention to tell me this." Zhao Li still retains that assertion and does not let go.

"Okay, let's move on." Professor Hans didn't intend to discuss with Zhao Li on his own character, and agreed to Zhao Li's request.

"First of all, human beings live in this world, and the first thing is to meet the needs of survival, which is the most basic." Professor Hans began to wrench his fingers and tell Zhao Lishu the ideas he had been instilled in: "In addition to this, after satisfying other spiritual needs, then longevity will also be a very urgent need. ā€

"That's right." Zhao Li nodded in agreement, who doesn't want to live longer? No one, including themselves, likes to live short. Although as a soldier, he has no hesitation in giving orders, but it is still good to live longer.

"Cultivation can satisfy some of the needs of longevity. However, it depends on each person's physical fitness and cultivation level, and if the cultivation is high, the life span will be relatively longer. Professor Hans also pointed out some of the drawbacks of spiritual practice: "For those with poor qualifications, or those with low cultivation, they can live longer through some aspects of genetic modification. ā€

"This is not too much to ask, or if this is the object of study, I will not object to it either." Zhao Li is still in the same vein as Kang Hongyuan in this regard, and can quickly accept opposing opinions.

"In addition, for those with low cultivation, having a certain level of strength is also a demand." Professor Hans was very happy to see that Zhao Li could agree with his previous point of view, and immediately continued: "In this regard, I believe you also know that genetic modification has a more efficient and fast solution than cultivation in this regard, and after transformation, it will not affect the continuation of cultivation. The two can complement each other. ā€

"For everyone? Or is it only for the military? Zhao Li has his own considerations on this issue, which is why he asked in such detail. Of course, this question also includes the meaning of asking Professor Hans about the current level of technological breakthroughs.

"For everyone." Professor Hans also quickly replied: "Depending on the physical fitness of each person, there are differences, the students of the genius school can directly transform to the level equivalent to the middle of the ninth level, while ordinary people can only practice the most ordinary exercises, like Kang Hongyuan, can also be transformed into a seventh-level master." ā€

"Is this their original level, or is it your credit?" Zhao Li frowned, in this way, it is indeed very exciting, all ordinary people can have the strength of the seventh level, strictly speaking, this transformation has indeed greatly enhanced the overall quality of human beings.

"They're called research, too? I don't know where to find a Mongolian doctor, vainly thinking of improving the attack power of humans by fusing the dominant genes of other animals and plants. Professor Hans looked disdainful at this question: "If it weren't for me, they would still be fighting those monsters!" ā€

"Actually, Professor, you're not like them." After Zhao Li heard this, he didn't ask much later, and he knew that in fact, Professor Hans and their ideas were still different. Those people are just going in the direction of weaponization, and Professor Hans is not going in that direction at all.

"What's different? Isn't this forbidden research still being conducted? Professor Hans was a little puzzled by Zhao Li's sudden change in attitude, and at the same time he looked a little broken.

"You don't have to admit it." Zhao Li smiled and looked at Professor Hans's tantrum like a child, and shook his head: "Compared to them, you still have humanity. ā€

As soon as he finished saying this, Zhao immediately stopped Professor Hans's intention to refute: "You don't have to admit it, you can see it in many places. First of all, you require that the people you transform are voluntary, which is a hundred times better than the people in that organization. Secondly, you don't agree with their research direction, and you just made that clear. Besides, you saved me, and if you were like those people, you wouldn't let me live. ā€

"It's just a matter of repaying your life in the Mountbatten tsunami." Professor Hans looked a little frustrated, and retorted disapprovingly.

"No, it just shows that you know how to repay it, which is a good virtue." Zhao Li praised Professor Hans without hesitation: "So, I'm just curious, why are you still messing around with them?" Are you convinced by them? ā€

"Doesn't seem to be up to me?" Professor Hans was a little laughing at Zhao Li's last question: "You know, I'm just an old guy with no legs, and those people didn't give me much choice after they rescued us. ā€

"What you just said makes a lot of sense, in terms of some treatment of diseases and the improvement of invisible defects, I think that genetic technology is not as evil as I imagined." After such an in-depth exchange with Professor Hans, Zhao Li's attitude towards genetic modification, especially genetic modification, has also changed: "If you use this research direction to cooperate with the military, you will not necessarily be rejected, why did you have to fund yourself at that time?" ā€

"My experiment has reached a critical moment, and when did the bureaucrats at the institute really care about my research?" Professor Hans seemed to remember his unhappiness before he was imprisoned, and his face was full of unhappiness: "If I don't find research funding myself, what else can I do?" ā€

"You can take your preliminary research results and negotiate with any other institute or hospital or even the military that interests you, and there is no need to do that kind of illegal thing." Zhao Li still felt a little pity in his heart, Professor Hans was still too simple at that time. But it's no wonder that he, an obsessive researcher, is a nerd to put it mildly, where he thinks so much, naturally he uses whichever method is the simplest.

"The military? The military would only put me in prison, but those people gave me the funds and equipment for research, and even they had a huge amount of data for ** experiments that I would never have been able to get, although I had some core technologies at the time, but, undeniably, those data did give me a lot of reference. Professor Hans's tone was very disappointed by now.

"Why do you live in that place alone?" Not to mention those unhappy things, Zhao Li turned to ask Professor Hans about his recent life.

"You know, I'm in a relationship with those people, but we still have a big difference in research direction." Professor Hans did not hide this, and said: "They have also mastered the key technology through several of my experiments, so they can completely leave me alone." It's just that I'm afraid that there will be some sudden problems that can't be solved, so I will stay and arrange a proper identity for me to live a luxurious life. ā€

"Aren't they afraid that you will contact the outside world?" Zhao Li was a little curious.

"In fact, I was under house arrest." Professor Hans smiled bitterly: "In my residence, communication can only be called in, not out. If you want to call out, you can only go through their transit, you can't get on, you can't go out, and even if you want to query technical information, you have to be done by their people. ā€

"And how did you get that painting to appear in the Louvre?" Zhao Li was also curious about this.

"It's been my lifelong passion, and I mentioned it to them when I first started working with them." Professor Hans is very happy when he says this: "A year ago, they helped me make this wish come true. ā€

The process was estimated to be too normal, so those people had no doubts. Zhao Li was a little puzzled by the outrageous price: "How did you convince them to mark that sky-high price?" ā€

"Because my request is to hang there for as long as possible. If it's a non-sale, there's no way to get that kind of treatment, and I don't want to sell it, because the more outrageous the price, the less likely it is to sell. Professor Hans was very proud of this.

"What if I forget what I said then?" Zhao Li asked suddenly.

"It doesn't matter, it's better if you forget, at least I can do my research calmly." Professor Hans didn't care, listening to his tone, it seemed that he was not so happy to reunite with Zhao Li.

"Do you think that if you fall into my hands, you will not be able to continue researching?" Zhao immediately grasped the slight psychological change of Professor Hans and asked quickly.

"What do you say?" Professor Hans didn't answer at all, and this question really didn't need to be answered.

"Professor, ask you a question, and you can think carefully before answering me." Zhao Li knew the professor's concerns, but this also reflected that Professor Hans was a pure researcher in Zhao Li's mouth.

"What's the problem?" Professor Hans didn't care much about the seriousness of Zhao Liti's question.

"Those who have been transformed on the elven planet, is it still possible to recover?" This is what Zhao Li has always wanted to know, but in this regard, no one is more authoritative than Professor Hans, and only Professor Hans's answer can make Zhao Li completely believe it.

"The people on the elven planet are relatively complicated." As soon as Professor Hans considered the academic issues, he immediately became different: "For the first generation of people who were transformed, there is still a great possibility of restoration. Theoretically, it is to reverse their transformation process and replace the modified part with their original genes. But ......"

"But what?" Zhao Li was very concerned about this question, and as soon as the professor couldn't say it, his heart immediately sank.

"However, on the elven planet, except for a few long-lived people, the first generation of reformed people have all died. The people who are alive now are basically the descendants of those people, who have two or three or four generations, and the situation of these people is very complicated and not so easy. Shaking his head, Professor Hans expressed the severity of the difficulty.

"Can you elaborate on that?" Zhao Li is very similar to knowing how difficult this is.

"Not to mention the problem of genetic mutation in the process of reproduction, once the modified person begins to reproduce, then the genes of the offspring are completely devoid of the original genes, and all of them are replacement genes. Although it can still be replaced by human genes, whose genes are used instead? It's not him, and he doesn't have the original genes of his parents, what are you going to do? Replace it with a unified gene, or draw lots to decide which person's gene to replace? No matter what method you use, they are no longer the same person. Professor Hans briefly described the difficulties that need to be considered: "If you have to start from ethics, there is no chance of recovery." Because even if they recover, it's not what they should be. ā€

"But at least they can revert back to being pure humans, right?" Zhao Li also understood the seriousness of the problem, Professor Hans did not say that there must be a problem, presumably the problem is more complicated.

"Yes, if you have to think so, then you can't say so. After all, it is the genes of humans that replace their original genes, and in general, they can return to adulthood. Professor Hans nodded and gave Zhao Li's affirmative answer.

"Professor, if someone funded your research on this, would you be willing?" Zhao Li still asked Professor Hans in that serious tone.

"Funding me?" Professor Hans was clearly struck by the surprise: "You mean, I can still continue my research?" Seeing Zhao Li nodding, Professor Hans immediately asked: "Do you know how much money is needed to fund this kind of research?" ā€

"I know very well." Zhao Li nodded: "Do you think that the money that is enough for HSBC to go bankrupt to sponsor your research is enough?" ā€
