Chapter 383: The Last Killer Weapon
「…… My earliest interest in this creature came from a sick salmon. Its skeleton was strangely twisted, spinning and spinning, as if it had been radiated by the Advent. But the breeder told me that it was not. It just had a form of "ichthyosis", infected with a parasite called "brain muxoid worm". I was intrigued by its strange state and immediately went back to check the information, and indeed, scientists have been studying them since the 70s of the 20th century."
"Is this symptom actually caused by a parasite? I'm starting to get curious about it."
Ren Yi flipped through the staccato notes page after page, sometimes clear and sometimes messy, trying to make out the handwriting on them from another human civilization.
"After reading the information, I was shocked! The way this creature reproduces is quite weird, it's just unbelievable!"
"It has only five simple cells in its body, and its genetic material is so simple that it can't even do aerobic respiration; What's more, it doesn't even need to reproduce sexually!"
"It floats down to the bottom of the sea, and as the worm passes by, it spews out spinous filaments from two cells, fixes it on the surface of the worm's body, and then squeezes out one of the five cells and enters the worm's body. Then, when the worm is eaten by the fish, this cell will enter the fish body along with the worm and begin to multiply in its body, forming tumor-like tissue! When the time is ripe, these new brain mucous worms will break away from the tumor tissue and go underwater, starting a new round of reproduction!"
"The thought of this makes my scalp tingle!"
Ren Yi also felt a chill as he read.
"At the moment, I don't see any connection between this and dealing with the Adventists......
This page has ended, Ren Yi turned a few more backs, all of them were scribbled with a pen The structure of the organism, Ren Yi quickly turned it, and finally ushered in another page with words.
"The way it reproduces is so bizarre that, at first, biologists couldn't believe it or classify it as an animal."
"But then, biologists identified its characteristic, filamentous cells. Finally, it was determined that it was indeed an animal—a cnidarian, similar to a hydra!"
"It belongs to a subphylum of cnidarians, mucozoans!"
"From the point of view of the evolution of living things, there is another astonishing conclusion - when its ancestors decided to live a parasitic life in ancient times, it showed a kind of degradation! A degradation from multicellular to unicellular, from complex to simple! An evolution called "degeneration"!"
"Who said that what is complex and advanced must be optimized?"
"Continuing to study, the biologists discovered another terrible fact - in order to parasitize better, it almost removed its tumor suppressor genes! Cancer is the natural enemy of all living things, and no single organism has taken the initiative to give up tumor suppressor genes!"
"The most terrible and important thing is coming—"
"Musculus animals can form tumor-like structures in the host, and some cancers have indeed been shown to be transmitted through superficial contact—"
"No structure, no splitting, extreme tolerance...... What do you think of these traits?"
"That's right, cancer cells!"
"Someone has made a terrible assumption that the origin of the cancer cells is a group of parasites from ancient times!!"
"They infected the ancestors of ancient animals, and then they infected each other across species, and in the billions of years of planning, due to a fortuitous moment, this writing without tumor suppressor genes was engraved into the DNA of other organisms, and since then it has been latent in all living things and passed down from generation to generation......
Ren Yi looked cold and dizzy.
It turns out that human beings once had such a conjecture about the cancer that plagued all life......
These notes were not written randomly, and there was a real connection between them, and perhaps this was really the key to their fight against the Advent......
He had a vague idea in his heart, but when he thought about it carefully, it was a blur.
He immediately turned the next page in a hurry. This book has been completely written, and the rest is blank. This page is several
Only the above few lines were written, leaving black and white horizontal lines.
In the middle, the note-taker writes in a scribbled handwriting, ink and a pen with little staccato ink:
"This is an interesting and crazy discovery, and it has provided me with great ideas for my research against the Advent!"
Rumble!
Ren Yi's head shook violently.
Fight the Adventists! The most critical point has arrived!
Although it is only a few lines, the words are powerful, constantly impacting his heart and pulling his emotions to rise and fall rapidly.
Ren Yi felt his heart pounding. He immediately lowered his head, and couldn't wait, pointing his finger at the handwriting that was busy on it, carefully reading it word by word.
"Based on known experience with the enemy, the Black Goat network is composed of a combination of body tissue and machinery. There is no other life on that planet, it is equivalent to only one or one species on the planet."
"In other words, as long as it has an incurable disease, the network will only be dysfunctional and necrotic, and the entire planet will be doomed with all the descendants!"
"As long as we can find out that the needle can infect the cancer cells of the "Black Goat" network, we are done!
It turns out that this is the last resistance of mankind!
"I understand...... Ren Yi was shocked in his heart, he couldn't make any expression on his face, and kept muttering to himself through "the sky is round".
"Since humans are cultured from black goat cells, there must be something in common with each other's genes!"
"If you can remove the cancer-inhibiting part of it, and then find a way to infect the Adventists......
"Humans, as higher beings, will die from lower parasites; High-level Adventists can also be infected by low-level humans!"
The scribbled, staccato handwriting reveals the belief and madness of victory, and every stroke is like a hammer on Ren Yi's heart.
"It's not that the weak will be defeated by the strong!"
"I must cultivate a cancer that can target the 'black goat'!"
Like the people on the other end of the "round sky", after reporting his latest discovery, Ren Yi trembled all over, sat down and calmed down for a long time before regaining his breathing.
Immediately afterward, he stood up and began to search the entire laboratory carefully, his heart full of hope.
He knew that this was not only a conjecture of mankind, they put it into practice, and, in the end, succeeded!
Whoa...... Ren Yi flipped through piles of documents and various instrument bottles on the table one after another, and smoke and dust continued to fill the entire laboratory.
The goddess Themis said that the last scientist succeeded.
But at that time, there was no one on earth to carry out the task for him, to put the last step of this plan into action.
"Now, I'll do it for you!"
Ren Yi kept rummaging, sweating and dusting left traces along the way.
"Take the Earth back into the hands of humanity!"
"Your efforts will not be in vain!"
