"What's that? Mouse scam corpse? ”

As soon as Tang Rui woke up, he received a report from Red Lotus.

The mice on Mars, which were the subjects of the virus, were all cheated, and even the half-dissected mice got up.

It was scary at first.

Later, a group of scientists discovered that all the mice were not intelligent, so they boldly studied them.

As a result, the virus mutation that erodes the neuronal tissue takes over the neurons and forcibly controls the activities of the mice.

"Red Lotus, show the video."

"Yes, master."

A group of mice crawled up on the projection screen, headed in one direction, and then began to hit the glass incessantly.

After watching this video.

Tang Rui curiously asked Red Lotus, where was the location of the guinea pig, and the answer he got was the location of the previous drilling hole in the Mars base.

It's obvious.

There is something wrong with this virus.

"How long will it take for the spacecraft to reach Mars?"

"It's going to take another three hours and nineteen minutes."

"Okay, let me know when it's time."

Wake up, wash up and have breakfast.

Tang Rui returned to the laboratory, contacted the Mars base, communicated with the other side, and saw if there was any progress.

"Academician Tang, this is not a virus."

"Not a virus?"

"That's right, this should be a special microorganism, or a special microorganism that pretends to be a virus, but is not a virus."

After the scientists on Mars finished speaking, they showed him the data of the mutated virus in the mice yesterday.

Don't say anything else.

The genetic sequences of the original virus and the mutated virus are completely different.

The most terrifying thing is that when this virus mutates, the special gene code inside it will be transformed into different gene sequences according to the different genes of the invading organisms.

To put it simply, the virus that invades mice and the virus that invades the human body have different genetic sequences after the mutation.

This mutation will be completely adapted to the host's genes and will not cause any rejection.

Even the function of the neuronal tissue can be completely simulated without any differences.

If it weren't for someone who had a brainstorm yesterday.

Inject a mouse with a hallucinogenic drug, and you really can't find out about it.

"So, this microorganism is a special kind of life?"

"That's right, but we're more inclined to say it's a biological weapon, or a means of predation for some kind of special life."

Tang Rui nodded after listening.

The importance of this virus has once again been raised to a higher level.

It is highly transmissible, can invade the body, can be genetically modified and fused, and is controlled by some kind of mother.

"Be careful yourself, in more than two hours, the spaceship I sent will arrive, and then I will investigate the underground world."

"We're fine, yesterday's discovery overturned our previous research, and we're currently analyzing the genetic changes before and after the virus mutation, trying to find out that particular gene."

There is no need for Tang Rui to comfort them, these biologists are not afraid at all, but are still very excited to conduct research there.

Joke.

The value of this virus is immeasurable.

Once we understand how the virus perfectly transforms the fusion gene, then the problem of cross-species gene fusion is no longer a problem.

At that time, the cat's ear mother will not be exclusive to the second dimension.

Midday.

The spacecraft launched by Red Lotus yesterday has finally arrived on Mars.

After the plane landed on the edge of the Martian base, more than a dozen robots carried the survival boxes containing the mice into the base.

Tang Rui didn't care about this matter, he directly asked Honglian to control the ground-drilling robot and drill a hole below.

The formation, which was not very deep in the first place, was quickly pierced.

Underneath the cliffs, there is indeed liquid water.

And there are quite a few reserves of these liquid waters, roughly calculated, there are more than 20 million cubic meters.

"Red Lotus, we have to go to the samples of water resources for analysis, and then let those cyber mice be infected with the virus, and record the whole process of the virus entering the body of the mice."

"Yes, master."

Next to the cliff, a temporary experimental cabin of only about 20 square meters has been built.

Red Lotus controlled the robot and began to operate according to Tang Rui's instructions, and the most unlucky of them were those cyber mice.

Each of them drank a lot of water.

After drinking the virus-laden water, they become ready-made observation devices.

The big screen in front of Tang Rui showed all the activities of the virus after entering the body of the mouse.

Look for neuronal tissue, then invade, replicate, and replace neuronal cells.

However, 80 percent of the neuronal tissue in cyber mice is made up of nanobots.

Therefore, these viruses can only erode 20% of neuronal cells.

This time.

With the presence of cyber mice and professional internal visualization equipment, Tang Rui clearly saw the mutations of the virus.

They invade neuronal cells, corrode cells, and are also phagocytic cells.

At this time.

The genes of the virus begin to recombine, and the genetic sequence of the virus is fused based on neuronal cells.

Finally, it is perfect to replace neuronal cells and become part of the neuronal tissue of mice.

"It seems that those scientists are mistaken, not stimulated by hallucinogenic agents to cause the virus to mutate, but when it invades neurons, it is already mutated."

Tang Rui looked at the series of changes in the virus in the cyber mouse's body, and muttered quietly.

At the same time, he also solved a previous doubt.

Why doesn't the immune system attack the virus?

Because the virus has learned to disguise.

They can engulf immune system cells in mice, and then divide and transform into immune cells.

This is also the reason why the immune system does not work.

There are traitors inside.

Tang Rui waited for more than an hour.

After these viruses occupy most of the nerve cells in the mice, except for the nanobots, the mice are injected with hallucinogenic drugs.

Hallucinogens activate virus-transformed neuronal tissue.

A guinea pig lying on the ground.

At this moment stood up and began to crawl outside, not very fast.

"Red Lotus, open the life support box, let this little mouse go, and see where it's going." Tang Rui said to the red lotus.

"Yes, master."

Click!

The survival box opens.

The guinea pig crawled out and crawled outside.

By the time it climbed out of the test chamber, its movements had become nimble, and it was no longer the stiff crawl it had before.

Cyber mice exposed to the surface of Mars have a lot of problems in their bodies, but these problems have been solved by nanobots.

Nano-modified mice.

If you want to survive in outer space, that is certainly unrealistic.

But it's okay to survive on the surface of Mars for a while.

The cyber pig that crawled out quickly burrowed into the hole leading to the ground, and finally fell into the water.

At this time, the virus in the guinea pig's body begins to divide and multiply wildly, which is destructive.

"Master, a special bioelectric signal has been detected."

"Where's the source?" Tang Rui immediately asked.

"Master, according to the feedback from the nanobots, the signal source is the entire underground lake."

The whole underground lake?

But there's nothing in the underground river.

It had already been scanned just now, and there were no other creatures or items except water, if there were, Tang Rui would have already asked the red lotus to salvage it.

Nothing?

Where does the signal come from?

Or is it a special bioelectric wave signal?

"Can you crack the content of the signal?"

"The brainwave information of the mouse is being transformed, and the cracking is completed, and the signal content is: gather food, survive and reproduce, and destroy life."

This......

Tang Rui looked at the content of Honglian's translation and frowned.

"Master, the guinea pigs in the Mars base, get up again, this time they hit the glass wall even more frantically, trying to run out."

"Tell the lab and let them let the five mice out...... Forget it, you control the robot, take out the five guinea pigs, and throw them at the hole in the hole. ”

"Yes, master."

Ten minutes later.

Five guinea pigs, released by robots.

These mice are not nano-engineered, so the moment they are exposed to the surface of Mars, their internal organs and blood vessels rupture.

But even so, the virus controls the neuronal tissue, controls the body of the mice, and crawls towards the hole.

One by one, the mice climbed into the boreholes.

Fall into an underground lake.

The next second.

The bodies of these five mice were digested at a speed visible to the naked eye, and they were quickly corroded like the corpse water in the movie.

But Tang Rui knew that it wasn't their bodies that melted.

Instead, it was digested as food by countless viruses.

This particular virus is not only capable of attacking neuronal cells, but they can even attack the cells of any living organism, even hair.

Don't ask Tang Rui how he knows.

In the body of cyber mice, except for the organs and body composed of nanorobots, other cells have been eroded and digested by the virus.

After these viruses erode and digest all the cells, they divide again and revert to the viral form.

This ability is very perverted.

Even more perverted.

When countless viruses gather together, these viruses seem to have a sense of community.

Look at the data you get through cyber mice.

Tang Rui's whole body was numb.

You told me this thing was a virus?

Neither bio nor chemical weapons are so scary.
