Bai Ye took the USB flash drive, smiled slightly, and said lightly: "I just discovered that clones are also thoughtful. ”

Walter was surprised by these words. He frowned slightly, not quite understanding the specific meaning of Bai Ye's words.

"Thoughtful?" He asked, somewhat puzzled, as this statement seemed to be at odds with his previous knowledge of human cloning.

In his cognition, human clones are merely copied based on genetic information, with no self-awareness and independent thinking.

At least until they get out of the cloning pod, and after they get out. So far, the laboratory has no experience in this area.

Seeing the doubts flashing in the eyes of his subordinates, Bai Ye explained with a smile: "Although they don't have the same human self-consciousness as us, but in my telepathy, I found that clones will show reactions to the external environment to a certain extent. ”

"Thinking, perhaps."

Walter pondered, and this new perspective intrigued him. He began to think about White Night's words, and was also curious about the clone's potential cognition and way of thinking.

"Do you have any further research and exploration of this behavior of theirs?" Walter asked White Night.

Bai Ye shook his head slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of helplessness, he explained: "The state of mind of these clones is very fragile, I have made some attempts, but I only gently explored the outer layers of their brains, and did not conduct in-depth research. ”

These clones are not truly conscious individuals, and their inner emotional and cognitive states are not so solid, but rather like a soft piece of tofu.

The experiments and observations he has just conducted are only superficial explorations, and the understanding of the clone mind is still in its infancy.

"Their mental and emotional states are fragile, and delving into them can be torture and not easy for me."

White Night continued to explain.

After hearing these words, Walter still had an unaware expression, he touched his bald head, his brows furrowed slightly, and then asked, "Does that mean that we have to slow down the progress of the research and wait for more data?" ”

To be honest, this is not very in line with his wishes, although there may be some unforeseen consequences of continuing to research, the military and various organizations in the past often accidentally create all kinds of monsters for superheroes, but scientific progress always has a price.

Bai Ye pondered for a moment, and then said seriously: "You don't have to slow down the progress, but you must do it carefully, we need more force to protect ourselves now." ”

The bald scientist suddenly asked with some incomprehension: "Force?" Protect yourself? What do you mean by that? ”

Bai Ye gathered his thoughts for a moment and said in a serious tone, "I can't tell you more, but we are in a larger cosmic-level event at the moment, and the threat from the outer universe is already brewing, even I can't be sure of their purpose or movement until now. ”

"And these clones may become our effective force to some extent, and maybe help us deal with these potential threats."

"In addition, we need to be proactive in order to better protect our world."

"So." Bai Ye shrugged his shoulders and handed the USB flash drive back to Walter's hand, he didn't know how to deal with the contents specifically, "Store the angel's data, and let's clone someone out first to test his survivability." ”

"After all. What are imperfect angels called? ”

"Okay."

Walter nodded and took the USB stick, plugged it into a computer interface, and activated the clone pod's monitoring system.

A series of data and images appeared on the screen, including genetic samples of the cloned human, physical parameters, various feedback, and other information.

He carefully examines each piece of data and adjusts the parameters of the cloning chamber to ensure the accuracy of the cloning process. The data is complex, covering the clone's body anatomy, neural networks, emotional responses, and various physiological indicators.

Walter was deeply immersed in his work, his fingers nimbly tapping on the keyboard, constantly fine-tuning.

"Zizizi"

The liquid in the cloning chamber began to flow slowly, and the temperature, humidity, and atmosphere were precisely controlled. On the screen, graphs and curves of the genetic data fluctuate constantly, showing the cloning process taking place.

The bald scientist's brow furrowed slightly every time those lines jumped, and he carefully adjusted the parameters as he analyzed the data to ensure the success of the cloning.

He knew that failing once would not give Hakuya any punishment to him, but he couldn't forgive himself for his mistake.

Time slowly passed, and the data on the screen gradually stabilized, indicating that the cloning process was nearing its end. Walter continued to monitor every detail to make sure everything went according to plan.

The work requires a high level of skill and expertise, and Walter has demonstrated his talent as a senior scientist.

Eventually, the liquid in the cloning chamber stopped flowing, and a new clone appeared inside. Its appearance is almost identical to that of the previous clone, but it contains the tweaks and improvements that White Night has requested.

The clone's eyes opened slightly, showing signs of life.

"Whew, it's finally good."

After completing the adjustment of the clone, Walter wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and felt only a sense of satisfaction filling his heart.

This clone will be an important asset, and it is believed that it will not only bring new breakthroughs to the scientific community in the wasteland, but may also play a key role at some point in the future.

Soon, though, he seemed to remember something again, and gently pressed a series of buttons and the control panel.

The transparent part of the cloning chamber slowly closes, gradually creating an atmosphere of tranquility. As the capsule closes, a soft glow envelops the entire chamber.

A serene atmosphere gradually permeated the sleeping pod, and the clones were gently wrapped in a sleep fluid, as if they were in a quiet sleep.

"Newborn clones will be very fragile and need to be dormant now. Like I said before, jackals they don't have any intention of keeping clones alive for long, and we're different. ”

Raising his head, Walter looked at Bai Ye and explained, his eyes revealing anticipation and excitement.

White Night looked in the direction of the clone pod, looked at it for a moment, and then turned to Walter. A smile of encouragement and approval appeared on his face:

"Walter, you've done an excellent job, and it's very important for our research."
