During this whole process, Lu Ming's heart was always raised, and his heart was full of nervousness. thumb

It wasn't until he saw that the big net successfully covered this monster that Lu Ming's heart relaxed a little.

The monster creaked and howled in the net, its body staggering, the bone knife sticking out, trying to cut the wire. But the material from which this net is woven is also a special material, and I am afraid that it cannot be cut even with a metal knife. Although this monster is hideous, the bone knife on its body obviously can't do this.

The next moment, it stretched out its bone knife again, and stabbed directly into the leg of one of the guards at a speed that prevented people from reacting. The guard snorted, but the pants made of special fibers were not pierced.

With these few fights, Lu Ming's heart gradually relaxed, and the guards were obviously much bolder.

After dragging the monster into the room, several people directly started and directly pressed its limbs. The monster struggled, and the four of them tried their best to keep it out of their hands.

It took four strong guards to barely keep it at bay, and the monster's strength was obvious.

In this way, it was forcibly pressed onto the hospital bed by heavily armed guards, and then firmly tied with ropes made of special fibers. When everything was ready, several guards stood next to them, gasping for breath. thumb

On the hospital bed, the monster was still struggling, squeaking and screaming, trying to cut the rope again. But it clearly won't be able to do that.

In the monitoring room, seeing this scene, Lu Ming and the others also breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

"Retreat, enter the isolation room, and disinfect your whole body."

Zhang Dingshan gave an order in a deep voice. The five guards were ordered to slowly retreat from the room, still on alert.

Doctors in isolation gowns hurried over to conduct a full body examination of the five guards. Moments later, the results were presented to several members of the second team.

"The guards participating in the battle had multiple bruises, multiple hemorrhages, and multiple minor bone cracks all over their bodies. One of them suffered a broken rib, but otherwise there was no serious problem and there was no life-threatening condition. ”

Even if he was fully armed, even if the bone knife could not penetrate the stab-proof suit, the power could not be hidden. Just like a person wearing body armor is shot, the bullet cannot penetrate the body armor, but it can still break bones. thumb

The power of that monster was once again clearly displayed in front of people.

But the results were good. It was contained, and there were no major casualties on its own side.

"Let's do the follow-up."

On behalf of the second action team, Zhang Dingshan made follow-up arrangements to experts from various disciplines.

Lu Ming knew what was waiting for this monster. To put it simply, except for the means that may pose a deadly threat to it and may kill it directly, all the other means will be used in turn, and none of them will be missed.

There will be all kinds of drug stimulation tests, living specimen tests, irradiation tests, poison tests, etc. People will try to learn as much as possible about it by any means available.

After all, it can no longer be considered human. For the experts, there are no humanitarian and ethical limits to the various experiments that can be carried out on it. thumb

At this moment, two biologists, also heavily armed, under the protection of three guards, came to the monster.

The three guards were on full alert, while the two biologists took out various equipment, scraped a little powder from each part of the monster's body, and carefully stored it. He took out a cotton swab and dipped it in some of the mucus from it. In the process, the monster also struggled and howled, scaring the biologist several times to the point that his whole body trembled, and the cotton swab in his hand fell to the ground. But the specimen collection was done anyway.

The specimens were immediately taken to the biochemical laboratory for further analysis. After that, the hospital bed where the monster was held was sent to the scanning room under guard, and CT, MRI, and other facilities began to scan its whole body.

The next day, the expert group met to discuss and decide to start an electric shock test to test the mechanism of body force and the structure of bones and muscles. Under the operation of people, the robotic arm connects wires to different parts of its body, releasing electric currents of different intensities, and testing its every tiny reaction.

This was followed by a poison test. Specialists released a variety of different gases in the isolation chamber to test how it reacted to the monster's body. During this process, a robotic arm constantly operated a syringe to penetrate its body, and a tube of unknown liquid was withdrawn for testing.

The isolation chamber where Subject 1, the code name given to the monster by the experts, was filled with howls of pain and resentment for days after the test began. The howl was like a desolate grave ghost crying, and even Lu Ming would feel a chill from his heart when he heard it.

In this situation, the body data of this monster, which has never been touched by humans before and has never appeared on the earth, is slowly presented to people. thumb

In addition to the usual data such as body structure and survival mode, the most shocking discovery was finally placed in front of the four members of the second team of the operation after being confirmed by many parties.

"This monster...... It's, it doesn't even have any genetic information in its body. ”

Faced with this result, several people felt a little incredible at the same time.

"No genetic information? This...... So how does it reproduce? ”

On the earth, except for prions and other living and non-living beings, all other organisms have genetic information, that is, DNA or RNA.

Genetic information is like a blueprint, which records information about the structure of living organisms, telling how the original embryo should develop and what it should become. In this way, a fertilized egg can develop into a human and an egg can hatch into a chick.

It's like a drawing of a building. Obviously, without the drawings, the building would not have been built. Because the builders simply don't know how to build it. thumb

So, since this monster has no genetic information, how did it know what it should have developed into when it was born? And how can it pass on its information to the next generation?

"I don't know. We don't know how it develops and reproduces. ”

Lu Ming shook his head.

Lu Qingliang said: "Does it still have human genetic information in its body?" ”

"Nope. Experts have found only a few fragments of human genes that have been broken in its body, although these fragments have lost their ability to be expressed. In other words, they are useless. And, after gene comparison, experts confirmed that these gene fragments belonged to Luo Yang. ”

"In this way, Luo Yang's genes ...... Crashed. An unknown force shaped Luo Yang's body into what it is today. ”

"Yes." thumb

Lu Ming said: "For this kind of monster, we still have a lot to know. Experts are conducting follow-up research, but I think that this research can only confirm some details, and it is difficult to make major discoveries. ”

Zhang Dingshan looked at him: "What is a big discovery?" ”

Lu Ming said: "It will help us figure out the discovery of the mystery of the magic eye." ”

Several people fell silent.

The research direction of the experts is to study how "weird" this monster is. But what the second team is more concerned about is why this monster has become so "weird", and why it is just a star map that can make it so weird.

There is not a difference between the two. For the second team, the latter is even more important. But so far, there has been little breakthrough in this area.

So far, the second team of operations still has no good direction of investigation. thumb

That question is back in front of people.

How should the follow-up investigation be carried out?

Lu Ming sighed and said: "Actually, the most urgent thing at this stage, I don't think it's to find the next breakthrough, but why the No. 1 experimental subject appeared here, and why didn't the monsters in Zhou Tianyang's team take it away at the beginning." ”

He Wei frowned: "I don't think there's anything to dwell on in this issue." There are too many possibilities, the inconsistency of the mutation process, the inconsistency of the group, or just the monsters that Zhou Tianyang's team mutated into at the beginning have forgotten. ”

Lu Ming looked at He Wei: "Don't forget, they are wise." And after mutating into monsters, we should strip them of their social attributes when they were originally human beings, and treat them as if they were the same kind. In that case, it is not normal for the rest of the monsters to choose to leave it here and let it fall under our control when they can take it away without hindrance. ”

It could almost only be assumed that Subject 1 was intentionally left behind.

Zhang Dingshan bowed slightly: "What do you think they have planned?" What are they trying to do with it? "Thumbs

"Yes. But I don't know what they're trying to do or what they're planning. ”

He Wei said: "Think about what we will do after leaving Subject No. 1 behind. ”

Lu Qingliang immediately said: "Obviously, we will guard it closely, keep it tightly imprisoned, study it, and observe it. After that, we will find that it has mutated into a monster, and then, study it with greater force, and guard it with greater force. For the foreseeable future, this temporary base will become more closely guarded and studied more intensively. ”

This is the natural response of human society to this. Any ordinary person can make this judgment after having the corresponding information.

And this monster is intelligent. They should be able to make that judgment as well.

Combined with the fact that they deliberately left Subject No. 1 behind and let it fall into human hands, then, when combined, it seems that only one conclusion can be drawn.

They left Subject 1 behind in the hope that humans would do the same. thumb

"But why?"

Faced with this "why", several people fell into silence and thinking again.

What is the purpose of the monsters? What does it mean for humans to do that? What can they achieve with this?

Lu Ming sighed again: "I don't know what their goal is, but I know that this will not be a good thing for us after all." Compared to the overall goal of solving this eucalyptus, it is now the most urgent issue. ”

One is a long-term strategy, and the other is an urgent need.

Luo Yang's mutation, in the whole incident, obviously played a role as a node. And now, this node has passed. So according to common sense, if the monsters want to achieve something with this, they have a high probability of launching in the near future.

That's where the urgency comes in. thumb

Zhang Dingshan said: "Strengthen your vigilance." ”

At this moment, without knowing the opponent's purpose, you can only do this.

This concludes the video conference.

Based on the speculation that "the opponent is very likely to make some moves in the near future", in the past few days, He Wei and Zhang Dingshan did not leave the base to continue the search operation, but were on duty here like Lu Ming, so as to make a decision on the spot.

A huge team of experts from various disciplines is still examining Subject No. 1 day and night, and discoveries from all aspects are constantly emerging, and each discovery is shaking the minds of the experts. But all this did not attract much attention from several members of the second team.

Because for the time being, there is no way for a few people to see the help in cracking this case.

In this case, time passed quietly. thumb

One night, after dinner, Lu Ming still chose to take a walk outside, and thought about those clues while walking.

The more time passed, the stronger the uneasy feeling in Lu Ming's heart became. He always felt that the enemy was hiding in the shadows, watching him quietly, and if the time was right, he would immediately jump out and strike a fatal blow at his side. But no matter how much he thought, he was never able to pinpoint what the enemy was planning.

Of course, this does not mean that Lu Ming will choose to give up.

"Okay, comb from scratch again. The monsters must have anticipated our actions and knew exactly what we were going to do with Subject One. And that's exactly what they expected. Their ultimate goal must be directly related to the way we respond to it. So, what can they achieve with our actions? What are some of our actions that can be exploited by them? ……”

Just when Lu Ming racked his brains, tried his best to think, and was fully immersed in the analysis of this problem, a few shouts suddenly came from the side, which brought him back to his senses.

He subconsciously looked in the direction where the shout came from, and he was shocked to find that the heaven and earth had turned black when he hadn't paid attention to it before.

The sky was cloudy and moonless, and there were no stars. The entire huge base, all the barracks, was plunged into darkness. thumb

Lu Ming was stunned, and a thought subconsciously flashed through his mind.

"There's a power outage?"

But...... How can a paramilitary base have a power outage?
