After the middle-aged man returned to his office, he immediately summoned the head of the security section to come over.

"Ole, the chairman asks you to make a response plan for this thing, just in case."

Ole, who was in charge of the security of the Pangea Realm, picked up his tablet and carefully browsed the contents.

It describes a new species that has recently been genetically mutated – the nucleated cockroach.

If you hear the name of this thing, it's not a good stubble.

The nucleated cockroach is about the same size as the American cockroach, and it lives in symbiosis with the discharge bacteria, and the wings on its back completely degenerate, turning into a rucksack that stores special substances.

Inside the backpack is the radioactive elements that have been enriched, mainly carbon-14.

This is also where the name of the nuclear cockroach comes from.

If it was just that, the nuclear cockroach was not qualified to let the middle-aged person report to Li Qingye specifically.

The reason why nuclear cockroaches have attracted much attention is because of their unique biological structure and survival mode.

You must know that carbon-14 is a radioactive substance, and the concentration of carbon-14 enriched by nuclear cockroaches is about 0.82%, and the radiation dose is not optimistic.

So how did the nuclear cockroach survive in this situation?

The reason they survive is that when they eat, they let the food stay in a special organ of the digestive tract, where radioactive materials are enriched into the backpack behind them.

The radioactive material that accumulates in the rucksack and the high-energy rays it produces will be absorbed by the symbiotic discharge bacteria, which then produce electricity and heat to supply the bacteria and cockroaches.

Swarms of nucleated cockroaches can threaten animals such as dingoes and feral cats because they can combine discharges to kill animals hundreds of times their size.

In addition, data obtained through the monitoring room showed that these cockroaches, like their relatives termites, evolved as female worms.

The mother of the nucleus cockroach can lay about 500 eggs per day, which makes the population size of the nucleus cockroach continue to expand, and it has now occupied 24% of the southern jungle of Pangea.

……

After reading the relevant report of the nuclear cockroach, Ole finally understood the danger of this creature, and he replied solemnly: "Manager Lin, please rest assured, I will definitely prepare relevant countermeasures." ”

The middle-aged Lin Haibin nodded: "Then please." ”

"You're welcome, it's my job."

After Ole left, Lin Haibin immediately got up and went to another area.

As soon as he arrives, he is met by the return of the robot that has just captured the nuclear cockroach.

Looking at the dozen or so nuclear cockroaches that were frozen in storage containers at low temperature, Lin Haibin instructed Tai Muxin, the head of the scientific research team:

"Mu Xin, you have to make arrangements, don't let these nuclear cockroaches run out, otherwise the consequences will be very serious."

Tai Muxin also attaches great importance to this matter, as a biologist, he knows that the genetically recombinant organisms and mutated organisms in the Pangea Realm, because there is no gene lock, these things are too dangerous.

If accidentally leaked into the natural world, it has the potential to cause terrible damage.

In fact, there is no need for Lin Haibin to remind him, Tai Muxin has already attached great importance to it, and he replied cautiously: "I will pay attention to this issue, does Manager Lin have anything else?" ”

"Well, I came to your side because the chairman just asked me to strengthen security measures, so I came to your side to investigate."

"I see, do you need me to lead the way?"

Lin Haibin shook his head: "No need, I need to investigate independently, you are insiders, and you may not be able to detect internal abnormalities." ”

"That's fine, then I won't bother." Tai Muxin turned around and went about his business.

Lin Haibin and his assistant conducted a careful investigation of this area.

……

Under the protection of comprehensive protective clothing, Taimuxin and several researchers carefully observed the slices of the nuclear cockroach through an electron microscope.

Another researcher walked over with a genetic test report.

"Head, the results of the genetic test for the nuclear cockroach are out."

Tai Mu asked without raising his head, "What's the situation?" ”

"Compared to a week ago, there are 23 more mutations."

Tai Muxin was not surprised at all: "In a high-radiation environment, the probability of genetic mutation is indeed very high, and insects can withstand it." ”

At this time, the radiation dose in Pangea is about 50 times that of the normal environment on the earth's surface, and many mammals living in Pangea are either killed by radiation or suffer from various diseases.

As for the two mammals, wild boars and rats, they can survive tenaciously in this environment and gradually adapt to the environment.

The rest of the wild dogs, wild cats, cattle and sheep have basically been wiped out.

Insects and microbial plants are the most resistant to radiation.

Rats and wild boars can survive because of their rough skin and thick flesh, and at the same time they can give birth to a large number of litters, which greatly increases the survival rate.

If it is replaced by a natural person, in the case of a sudden 50-fold increase in radiation dose, then the natural person will most likely be doomed, even if the size of the ethnic group is several hundred million, it is useless.

The environmental adaptability of natural people is still much worse than that of wild boars and mice, and it is difficult to give birth to a lot of babies at once.

Although the first generation of rats and wild boars was also severely damaged by radiation, their reproduction rate is very fast, and they can quickly screen out individuals with stronger radiation resistance through survival of the fittest, so as to continue the genes of the race.

This is something that cannot be done by a natural person.

Insects are even more powerful, with genetic iteration rates dozens of times faster than mammals, and the reproduction rate is also very amazing.

For example, the nuclear cockroaches that Taimuxin's team is researching, they started from the first generation of ordinary cockroaches, but they have only iterated for 55 generations, and they have mutated beyond recognition under environmental pressure.

This kind of super mutation ability can't even be caught up by humans.

Tai Muxin cut another nuclear cockroach, put the slice into the electron microscope, and looked at it carefully.

In particular, the digestive organs and nuclear rucksack of nuclear cockroaches, which have special structures and components, are also the focus of research.

"Huh......" He saw that on the screen of the electron microscope, the microstructure of the nuclear backpack slice had changed again, and this time the change was somewhat unexpected.

He turned his head and ordered, "Mirror, test the genes of this nuclear cockroach to see if there are any mutations in those genes." ”

"Okay." Wang Jing immediately entered the command on the control panel of the inspection equipment.

Taimuxin, on the other hand, continued to observe and started the supercomputing simulation at the same time.

Through supercomputer simulation analysis, the newly born nanostructure, presented to him, the whole structure is very peculiar, in the simulation analysis, this structure can absorb the energy of ionizing radiation, convert it into electrical energy and heat energy.

"The electric and thermal conversion rates have improved a bit, although only 26.7% and 48.6%, but this data is already good."

Taimuxin did not dare to expect that this biological structure could be comparable to gold-based thermoelectric materials, and the application fields of the two were somewhat different.

Gold-based thermoelectric materials are suitable for industrial applications, while this new biomaterial is more suitable for applications in humans and organisms.

After a while, Wang Jing completed the genetic testing work: "Head, the genetic testing is complete, I'll send it to your mailbox!" ”

"Hmm." Tai Muxin saw the letter in the mailbox, and after opening it, he carefully scanned it.

Soon he discovered more than a dozen gene sequences suspected of being related to the mutation and recorded them.
