Chapter 20 Genetic Editing of Imperial Beasts
Irene stood up from the stool and stepped forward to gently hug Emily.
Emily hugged Erin's waist tightly, as if if she let go, the next moment Irene would disappear from her eyes.
"Okay, don't think about it so much, we still have a long way to go." Irene stroked Emily's short blonde hair.
Emily wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, her expression returned to normal, and her emotions came and went quickly.
"I'm fine." Emily pressed Irene to the stool. "Tell me about last night, why did you recover so quickly this time?"
On the way back last night, Ireen had already told her about the situation.
It's still a mission to save the child, not only did the child not be rescued, but he was also ambushed by the people of the Kloe Party, and finally even attracted the reformers of the Northern Bear Executive Department.
But in Emily's mind, none of that mattered.
She wanted to hear more about Chen'an, and if there was anything different about this operation than before, it was that Ireen was following this young man with a cat.
Irene pondered for a while with her chin on her chin and thought for a long time before she said, "I don't really know what happened, I only had one feeling at that time, as if there was a force in my brain that kept me soothing and kept me sane. ”
Emily nodded.
Although Irene's words were vague, she had a rough idea of what was going on, and the situation in front of her was exactly the same as the results recorded in the teacher's experiment notes.
"What about you? Did you feel anything at the time? Emily turned to look at Dust.
Chen'an took a look at Irene's words, and according to her, the link between the two people's spiritual power at that time should not be his illusion.
The two of them are likely in a state similar to that of a contract beast, only this time the object of his contract is a human.
But as it turned out, it seems that the contract did not work out.
When the red thread broke, Irene's data disappeared from his system panel.
"I think you should tell me what the situation is in front of you before you ask me, otherwise I may not be able to answer you accurately."
Chen'an really wanted to know what happened to Irene, could it be that she, like herself, had also traveled here from a certain world?
Emily didn't say anything, she turned to look at Irene, trying to get her permission.
After feeling Emily's gaze, Irene nodded without even thinking about it, not minding that Chen'an knew her secret.
Despite Irene's consent, Emily hesitated, and there was a brief silence between the three of them.
"Chen'an, do you remember the script I showed you during the day yesterday?" Irene was the first to speak, breaking the silence.
"I remember." Chen'an nodded.
It is a story of a princess who is turned into a monster by the demon king, and finally transforms back under the influence of the prince's love.
"I've always loved that game, and when I heard about the game's announcement and invited guests for a stage play, I was the first to reach out to them and I managed to win the role of princess."
"I've always felt that I was the princess who turned into a monster, but I haven't waited for the prince who can turn me back."
Irene looked at Chen'an with a smile, as if she was recounting a sparse and ordinary thing.
"Linlin, you're not a monster!" Emily got up from the edge of the stool and walked over to Irene and covered her mouth. "I didn't tell you you you can't say that about yourself."
Emily sighed, "Forget it, I'll tell you." ”
"Ireen and I are actually from the biochemical laboratory of Southern Eagle Biopharmaceuticals, and I was an intern when I was in the laboratory, and Linlin was a test subject codenamed [Princess] in the laboratory."
Emily rubbed her furrowed brow, as if recalling something very bad.
"These companies in Moonless City always like to study how to make a fuss about the Royal Beast, for example, now the Northern Bear is studying how to put his iron bumps on the Royal Beast, while the Southern Eagle is researching the use of the Royal Beast's genes to mix the human genes and then re-edit them."
Emily glanced at Chen'an, who looked dazed, and continued to add: "You may not understand me when I say this, but I'll give you an example, such as Linlin, who has the blood of the Imperial Beast in addition to the blood of humans. ”
"But this kind of gene editing is extremely unstable, and the genetic fragments of the beast are very domineering, and will continue to devour the genes of humans until a half-blood human is completely turned into a pure-blooded beast."
Emily picked up a pill bottle from the shelf.
"So we need drug inhibition to prevent the genes of the beast from devouring the genes of humans too quickly."
"Although this kind of experiment is both unethical and very dangerous, Nanying has continued to study it for so many years."
Chen'an remembered Irene last night, and also understood the reason why Nanying insisted.
"Humans who have been genetically re-edited have gained the ability to carry the genes of the beasts, and they have also gained the right to demand power from the world."
"Through research, Nanying has found that the beasts can continue to become stronger, and in addition to the spiritual power of the beastmasters, they can also take the initiative to absorb the power from the world."
"Southern Eagle calls this power the Force."
"I've read the novel, swords and magic, the Force is also a supernatural force."
"But in our world, humans can't feel this kind of power, only the royal beast can, and the purpose of Southern Eagle has always been to allow humans to use this power."
"There are not many successful experiments, and Linlin is one of them."
"Forget the digression, you may not be able to understand it if you continue to talk." Emily waved her hand. "So you can tell me now, how did you slow down the process of Linlin's beast transformation?"
Emily's words answered many of Chen'an's doubts, but there was still one point that Emily did not explain.
This is also one of the things that dust is most concerned about.
According to Emily, Ireen had been living in Southern Hawk's biological laboratory as a child and was a test subject of Southern Hawk.
From this point of view, although her life is bumpy, Irene belongs to this world.
What does "foreign thing" mean?
Dusty couldn't ask Emily directly, after all, what he wanted to ask was even more incredible than what she said.
Chen'an pondered for a moment, burying the doubt in his heart.
"When Ireen was transformed into a beast, I saw a red silk thread, and the other end of the silk thread was connected to my spiritual power, just like the feeling when I first contracted the beast."
It's not just a feeling, Irene's attribute panel appeared in front of him, which means that the two of them have successfully made a contract at that time, but I don't know why the contract was broken later.
After hearing Chen'an's words, Emily instantly became excited.
"And now? Do you still keep the contract? Linlin has become your royal beast? ”
