Chapter 45: Useful Genes

Seeing Bai Yi like this, Hong Qihua stood up and nodded at everyone.

"There are a total of 121 research institutes in New Zealand, with more than 100,000 test subjects, which is what Martin told you. Although only the Hamilton North Research Institute and the test subjects of a nearby research institute have escaped. But no one can be sure that the test subjects from other research institutes will escape. It's better to say that there will definitely be an escape, it just depends on when. ”

"In addition, the test subjects are only one reason, although they are powerful, but they are only more than 100,000 heads, and the real danger is the entire New Zealand ecosystem. We are still in human society, and the time is still short, so we can't see any changes. I'm afraid that in those inaccessible places, those creatures in nature have begun to choose cruelly between life and death. The strong, the surviving, the weak, become the food for other animals. Hong Qihua said, suddenly opening her mouth and making a biting motion.

Hong Qihua's silver teeth clicked and bit down, which startled the girls who were listening attentively. Hong Qihua didn't say what kind of organism genes were fused at the beginning, but first explained the current situation, which made everyone's worries deeper.

"Qihua, don't deliberately scare people, okay." Sarah patted her chest in surprise and shook it.

"It's not scary, in essence, we are no different from those test subjects, or even more cruel, if we want to survive, we can only rely on our own efforts." Hong Qihua smiled, and then said more and more heavily.

"In the past few days, we have made a rough classification of the types of genes, not according to the usual way of dividing organisms, but another kind - strong force, faster speed, jīng quasi-visual power, strong regenerative ability, maneuvering flight ability, toxin immunity, water environment adaptability, special ability ......" Hong Qihua said, picking up a piece of chalk and writing on the blackboard.

"There are about 2.5 million species of organisms recorded in the biosphere, including about 2 million species of animals, about 340,000 species of plants, and about 37,000 species of microorganisms. The first is that microorganisms are excluded, because microorganisms have always been present in various parts of the ecosystem, and if they could be integrated, they would have been integrated long ago. Hong Qihua said, categorizing it on the blackboard, and everyone saw it more directly.

"Secondly, although there are millions of species, those that are usually invisible are excluded because in our current situation it is impossible to reach them. For the rest, it's best to pick some animals or insects with special abilities. Hong Yihua stood on the podium and talked eloquently.

Everyone was fascinated by Ross.

The original Hong Qihua always wore a pair of wide glasses, almost covering half of her face, looking very old-fashioned. And Hong Qihua herself is not very good in school, which is easy to ignore. And now, after Hong Qihua took off her glasses, she not only revealed her beautiful appearance, but also gradually showed her own temperament, which made people feel very strange...... But it has a strong appeal.

"I asked Martin about the genes of which organisms to fuse, and I got more detailed information, and there is already a simple classification, if you have more comments, you can put it forward." There is no electronic screen, but there is a blackboard, which is more convenient. Everyone sat quietly in their seats, only the rustle of Hong Qihua's writing.

Soon, Hong Qihua listed several types on the blackboard, and then turned around and looked at everyone. At this time, everyone else was also looking at the contents of the small blackboard. The font of Hong Qihua is very beautiful, not a calligraphy master, but it looks pleasing to the eye. However, now everyone cares not about the font, but about the content on it.

(1) Strong force - that is, the most basic strength, is easy to understand.

Ants: Ants are small, but if you look at the physical comparison, none of the creatures in the biosphere have the same powerful force as ants, and they are very easy to obtain.

Of course, this is only theoretically, if the body is the same size, the strength of the ants is invincible, but who knows what will happen after the Lu Dao is fused with genes. Therefore, in nature, those creatures with great strength are also considered as objects.

Elephant:

Whale: They are all based on huge bodies, and they have a strong amount of strength, which can be regarded as an absolute amount of strength.

(2) Faster speed – two aspects, ground speed and flight speed. As a result of the discussion between Bai Yi and Hong Qihua, the ground is mainly flexible, and the speed alone is not enough to deal with various crises, so it is better to be flexible. And for this flexible selection of results, there are also several creatures to choose from.

Flea: The response is very agile, and when it encounters danger, it can jump within 0.7~1.2 milliseconds.

Hummingbird: It only takes 8 milliseconds for muscles to contract during flight.

Leopard: The speed of running on the ground, but it is not very suitable, and the reason why leopards can run so fast has a lot to do with the size of their body.

(3) Powerful five senses - that is, what is commonly known as sight, hearing, smell, touch, and taste.

1. First of all, vision, human vision is actually very average, and the capture of dynamic objects is very weak. If you really need to improve, the visual is definitely a very important point. Generally, animals with compound eyes have strong dynamic vision, such as...... Fly. Of course, it's not just dynamic vision, it's also night vision.

Dragonflies, butterflies, etc.: Basically, insects have good dynamic vision, and of course there is no need to choose disgusting creatures such as flies.

Owls, cats: Of course, there are other creatures that also have night vision, but cats are the most common due to how easy they are to obtain.

Vulture: This creature watches its prey at an altitude of thousands of meters, then swoops down to hunt for food, and has a very strong farsighted ability.

2. The second is hearing, which can make up for the lack of vision in many cases.

Bats: Ultrasonic positioning is great, but bats have this ability because their visual power is close to none. Who knows if they will also be blind after fusing the genes of bats, so it is best not to choose bats.

Cats and dogs: Hearing is also very good, and they can be more flexible to detect some dangers.

3. Sense of smell

4. Haptics

5. Taste

Comparatively speaking, the application of the latter three five senses in danger is not very large. Moreover, many creatures are generally more powerful than the five senses, at least, stronger than human beings, so I will not list them alone.

(4) Strong regeneration ability - Many animals have the ability to regenerate, but most of them are low-level creatures, so don't expect too much, and there is still no super-speed regeneration like in anime novels.

Gecko: Gecko's tail snapping and regeneration really couldn't be more familiar.

Zebrafish: The zebrafish can regenerate its fins, scales, spinal cord and part of its heart.

Sea cucumber: A new sea cucumber can be grown by cutting a little bit of the sea cucumber's flesh, but this ability is somewhat like a clone.

Spiders: Spiders can grow broken legs.

In fact, judging from the recovery of Woolf and Shapi in the past few days, the living Xìng cells themselves have a good regenerative ability, of course, provided that enough food and energy are provided.

(5) Flying ability - The ability to fly can definitely avoid most of the crises. And the ultra-high flight ability can quickly avoid crises.

Peregrine falcon: The fastest flying bird, it can reach a maximum speed of 180 kilometers per hour.

Vulture: This creature can watch its prey at an altitude of thousands of meters, and then swoop to hunt for food, not only can fly, but also has a very strong long-sighted ability.

Flies: The reason why we say flies is entirely because of the flexibility of flies. There is also the dynamic visual power of flies, in short, this disgusting creature that people can avoid, but some of its qualities are much stronger than humans.

However, these creatures may not be suitable, because their speed has a huge relationship with their size, and humans may not be able to exert this powerful flight ability by fusing their genes.

(6) Toxin immunity - this is not absolute, many organisms have a certain amount of toxin immunity, but only some toxin immunity. King snakes, for example, are immune to rattlesnakes and coppertail toxins and feed on them.

(7) Adaptability to the water environment - as long as it is an aquatic organism, it is obviously okay, but if the above conditions are combined, it is obviously not suitable to watch xìng fish, but those such as octopus are a good choice.

(8) Special abilities - such as spider silk, venom of poisonous snakes, and the ability of mayflies to crawl on the water surface.

After Hong Qihua finished writing, everyone read it all, and everyone fell into a slight stupor. Humans, can they really get those special abilities through gene fusion?

Of course, this is only an ideal state, but in fact, the fusion of genes cannot be divided according to this simple law. I've already asked Martin, so many research institutes, in addition to studying that ethereal immortality, are also summarizing the laws of gene fusion. In fact, it is not such a surprising idea to extract theoretically useful powerful genes for fusion, and it has been experimented in the institute for a long time. Hung said.

"And the result?" Everyone asked with concern.

"It didn't turn out as well as I thought it would." Hong Qihua was slightly silent.

"For what?" Everyone was puzzled, Hong Qihua had just painted a strong prospect for them, but in a blink of an eye, she said that the result was not good, which really amused them.

"I'll tell you." Martin stood up. Everyone immediately looked at Martin, among all of them, only Martin knew the most about the test subject, although Martin was only a peripheral researcher, but it was much better than their group of people who didn't know anything.

"The experimental subjects in the research institute, if divided according to the strength of the **, are roughly divided into four levels."

Four levels!
