Lu Ping hung up the phone, and the date displayed on his mobile phone was July 13, and the day he encountered the locust plague on duty was July 10, and he was in a coma for two days.

Lu Ping made this call, in addition to wanting to know if Gu Nianchen and them were safe, but also to ask what happened that day.

Now he knew that he was in the research institute instead of the hospital because he was exposed to solar radiation for nearly half an hour, and the scanner above his head was checking whether he had mutated, and it was impossible to leave this room in a short time.

Lu Ping got out of bed and walked to the window, and the scanner above the bedside followed him to ensure that Lu Ping would not leave the detection range.

Lu Ping, who was standing by the window, recalled the history he saw in the Paradise Archive and had to learn before entering the defense force: after the end of the century, the human beings on the earth were divided into three parts, one part of them took the interstellar ark to start the interstellar migration, one part entered the dungeon, and some of them, like the locust beasts before them, were genetically mutated by solar radiation and became different human beings, and they became irrational and even bloodthirsty. This part of the human race is also constantly mutating and evolving, and then becoming more and more powerful, giving them a new name: orcs.

To date, scientists around the world have not figured out how biological genes mutate, or how to combat them, let alone how they are constantly evolving.

The three who had left the room across from Lu Ping returned to the experimental office.

"Xiao Liu, call up Lu Ping's data, and how many cases is he already in?" It was still the gray-haired man in the middle who spoke first.

The one who was called Xiao Liu was the youngest of the three, his full name was Liu Wei, a genetic engineering researcher in Dungeon 23.

The three of them gathered around a table-like instrument with a display screen, a supercomputer.

Liu Wei clicked on it and said, "Dr. Fang, he is the thirteenth case, ten of them mutated in the second subsequent experiment, and the other two are completely fine, waiting for you to determine the progress of Lu Yi's follow-up experiment." ”

Dr. Fang looked at the information on the display screen, he had rushed from the No. 1 Dungeon Research Institute, specializing in human genes and mutations.

After Lu Ping's situation was reported, he rushed to participate in the experimental process in person, because his lifelong desire was to study the reason why human beings could not mutate under solar radiation.

"He's our person?What about the genetic sequence and test results?" Dr. Fang saw that Lu Ping's message column read: 'Gene Cultivation in Dungeon No. 23', only to know that Lu Ping was actually a person cultivated by their genetic technology.

After the sharp decline of human beings on the earth, one of the good results brought about by the explosion of technology is that human beings have researched the use of genetic reconstruction technology to create human beings in addition to natural reproduction, and there is basically no difference between genetic creation and normal human beings, but it will be weakened in some plates.

Hearing that Dr. Fang asked for Lu Ping's genetic sequence and test results, Lan Ling, the only female researcher among the three, called up Lu Ping's genetic information and the test results that were updated from time to time from the computer, and the two information were displayed side by side for comparison.

"What is this?" Dr. Fang asked, pointing to the abdomen of the human image on the right on the monitor.

After Liu Wei and Lan Ling got closer, they found that on Lu Ping's body scan image, there was a small air mass in the abdomen, just like the typhoon meteorological map of the earth seen on the satellite map, but it was not noticed before it was too small.

Liu Wei was thinking about how to explain it, and the results of the test had no abnormal changes at all, only this small air mass he really didn't know what it was. Even the computer didn't detect what was extra in Lu Ping's body, so Liu Wei and Lan Ling naturally didn't know.

"Schedule the first trial right away. Dr. Fang's tone was unmistakably firm.

"Yes!" Liu Wei and Lan Ling hurriedly turned around and were about to leave the laboratory.

"Wait a minute!" Dr. Fang suddenly thought of something and stopped the two of them again, "The defense team who often goes out on duty will also take a test and record the genetic and non-genetic people separately. ”

Liu Wei agreed again before leaving.

Lu Ping's matter can be big or small for them.

If Lu Ping's genes have mutated, this matter is small, if there is no mutation after experiments, then further research has been done, and if it has mutated, it is in a normal direction, and it has not become an orc who has lost his mind and bloodthirsty, this matter is quite big.

The next day, Lu Ping was packed into a glass box that could only be insulated and sent to the ground, and a scanner for full-body testing was also installed in the box, and Lu Ping was tested every hour.

The ten-hour test was the most embarrassing day for Lu Pingchang to grow up, and he felt like the animals in the film and television materials that were kept in the zoo for people to see, but fortunately, there were not too many guards in the test place.

A few days after the end of the test, he returned to the white sterile room, and the other defense team members were tested one after another, and the results showed that no one appeared in the air mass except Lu Ping, and Lu Ping's own results did not change in any way: his physical condition, thinking, and the size of the air mass were not abnormal.

Dr. Fang could only tentatively conclude that Lu Jian may have become the third person in China to not mutate under solar radiation because of his special constitution, and he could not find any scientific records that could explain the air mass.

In a month's time, Lu Ping went through six more tests in the glass box, and there was still no change.

Dr. Fang then confirmed the results and reported them to the General Research Institute, where the genetic engineering researchers will conduct a thorough study of Lu Ping's genes, hoping that in the future, it may be possible that the genetic mutations caused by solar radiation will no longer occur.

Lu Ping can finally go home, but he can't leave Dungeon 23 for the time being, and he needs to go back to the research institute to cooperate with the experiment at any time.

The institute used their special unmanned vehicle to send Lu Ping home. Speeding through the streets of the dungeon, Lu Yin inexplicably felt a sense of weirdness. When it was used as a test subject, in the city where the entrance to the dungeon was located, Lu Ping looked at the former ground city although it was dilapidated, and he could probably see what it used to be.

The construction pattern of the dungeon is not much different from the city on the ground, there are many more pillars that stand up to the sky, and the height of a single floor of the dungeon is not allowed to exceed ten floors, that is, forty meters. Very few people here can own a private car, and each dungeon is equipped with an AI-controlled unmanned car.

In order to build the interstellar ark, nearly half of the earth's resources were consumed, and the rest had to support the life and development of the remaining human beings.
