Chapter 179 Biological Mother Nest, Genetic Glands, Superman Project
The surprise flashed across Han Yuxin's face.
Immediately asked:
"Then send people to search now?"
"That group of people is not very strong, they are just a few first-order awakeners..."
Lin Feng thought for a few seconds and shook his head:
"Forget it, let's go when you have time this afternoon. We have to settle the business first."
Neither the three magic sticks mentioned by Han Yuxin who might possess the power of prophecy nor Liu Yueqi in the small town north of the city could affect the overall situation of the decisive battle in Wucheng.
And if you put the overall situation first, you have to do business first.
The genetic modification plan of the seventy-two Chapter members is currently more important than anything else.
In order to cooperate with Han Yuxin's display performance, I have been delayed here for about half an hour, and it is time to prepare to leave.
Lin Feng walked up to the other party and explained:
"Send the collected refined steel to the steel factory in the south of the city, as well as the five tiger spine insect corpses we brought, and cut off their second-order giant jaws. Let the employees inside work overtime to produce as soon as possible. Bring out a large number of tiger-tooth chain swords and take them with you when you arrive.”
"Also, the daily consumption of these tens of thousands of people is not low, and the fish stocks in the rivers are not inexhaustible. Jincheng can only be regarded as a temporary base. Once the daily fishery production begins to decline, we must prepare to migrate."
"Before this, we need to collect all the available supplies in Jincheng and surrounding counties and towns, as well as food reserves. We have to put it on the agenda now."
The rich fishery resources of the big rivers are the result of the long-term fishing ban implemented by the federal government before the end of the world. Once, the fish on the riverside were so numerous that apex predators such as the croaker were even more abundant. It is often fried.
But no matter how many fish there are, they can't withstand the indiscriminate fishing by humans. Once the tugboat is launched and the big net is dragged, they will be caught in one catch.
One hundred thousand survivors means one hundred thousand mouths. Even one kilogram of fish per person per day would cost ten tons. The big river alone would not be able to sustain it for long, and transporting it back and forth from Taihu Lake would consume more fuel.
Coupled with the rapid increase in the number of auxiliary soldiers and combat soldiers in the future, especially after becoming awakened, the food intake is four to five times that of ordinary people. Only 10,000 combat soldiers need more than ten tons of fish and meat every day, and they are put into combat status and consume more. very.
Feeding civilians in the future is not a problem, the key is how to feed these thousands of awakened people.
Fortunately, there is no need to think about such long-term matters now.
Lin Feng naturally didn't mention it.
Han Yuxin nodded:
"Understood. The last thing, the task you specially assigned yesterday will not be completed until tomorrow."
Lin Feng frowned, it was an impromptu suggestion he made after solving Zhang Liying's problem yesterday.
In a factory, thousands of tons of fish are piled up.
In order to build the biological mother nest of Lin Feng's plan, it was used to hatch the membrane wings of green winged insects and wind winged insects, and finally cultivate a group of flying warriors.
Thousands of tons of fish and meat, even if all the auxiliary soldiers and survivors were to go down the lake and river, it would still take two or three days to catch them.
The amount of dried fish currently in reserve is only a few hundred tons.
"Don't be anxious about this, take us there first."
Lin Feng thought for a moment and decided to deal with this first.
Fish meat is easy to spoil. After spoilage, microorganisms surge, which will consume the nutrients of the meat. Therefore, first use part of the fish meat to synthesize the biological mother nest, and then just wait for it to absorb the subsequent meat and develop into a complete body on its own.
Soon, under the leadership of Han Yuxin, Lin Feng and Zhiyi arrived at the target location, which was located in a large warehouse at the dock by the river.
This is the largest port in Jiangnan Prefecture, with a daily cargo throughput of more than 300,000 tons. The logistics transfer warehouses in front of them each occupy an area of more than 20,000 square meters.
It is even easier to stock up on thousands of tons of fish and meat.
Several old stone boats found from nearby rivers and towns, as well as cleaning boats for inland river sanitation, were used as temporary fishing boats and docked on the shore.
At this moment, there are hundreds of auxiliary soldiers who are actively engaged in fishing operations.
As a regular army, they can obtain fuel supplies, and they can return fully loaded every time they sail. They can catch large fish weighing several tons with just a few nets.
The drying work is also carried out on the dock square.
The warehouse where fish meat was stored was slowly opened, and the strong smell of fish hit their faces, making Lin Feng and Han Yuxin hold their breath, and even made them cry.
Lin Feng held back the turmoil in his stomach and looked at Xie Yi:
"Go on your own, just set up the program in advance. It shouldn't be a big problem, right?"
However, Zhi Yi walked into it as if nothing was wrong.
In fact, for the Zerg, the smellier the thing is, the more delicious it is. They have a preference for rotten substances because they are easier to digest.
Although Chrysalis Yi only has a human appearance, the internal organs of the body and the thoughts in the brain still belong to the high-level Zerg race.
Not long after, Zhi Yi, who disappeared in front of their eyes, slowly emerged from the darkness.
At this moment, she changed from the listless and tired appearance, and became radiant and full of energy.
Lin Feng understood at a glance that this guy was definitely taking advantage of the fish and meat resources in the warehouse to line his own pockets.
"It's done. All you need to do is add fish meat to it. It will grow on its own. Just remember to ask the employees not to stay too long."
The cockroach patted the clothes on his body to disperse the fishy smell on them.
Lin Feng nodded and told the tearful Han Yuxin to explain.
The latter looked gloomy after leaving. All the meticulous dressing was mixed up by the smell of fish.
After solving the problem at the biofactory, the parked convoy set off again, heading to Laoshan Natural Park on the other side of the river.
At the foothold on the opposite side of the mountain range, we arrived at the final destination of our trip, the Jincheng Institute of Biology.
The second-order tiger spine insects whose giant jaws were cut off were much smaller. Ling Shuyan quickly sent people to deliver them to the research building and ordered her subordinates to cut and extract them.
After she finished giving these instructions, she walked out of the research building.
When we met again, she was wearing a white open long gown with a large-size shirt underneath, covering up her dazzling figure. There were fat and swollen bags under her eyes behind the lenses. She worked hard and studied hard, and stayed up all night. The person's appearance seems to be in poor condition, but he is extremely excited.
She walked quickly and looked at Lin Feng, the woman behind him, and the seventy-two second-level awakeners.
Seeing so many strong people, Ling Shuyan was sure that what Lin Feng said on the phone before was true, and immediately enthusiastically stepped forward to welcome them into the laboratory building.
With so many perfect samples, although the surgical process will be tiring for Ling Shuyan, the collected surgical experimental data is even more valuable.
"First let them follow the medical staff for blood tests and initial skin tests. We need to know their natural adaptability to Zerg genes so that we can prepare the gene stock solution with the appropriate concentration in advance..."
Ling Shuyan looked at the awakened ones behind Lin Feng and pointed at the people in white coats on the left side of the hall.
Lin Feng nodded and arranged for two group leaders who were in the late second level to lead their team members to undergo physical examinations first.
Seeing that the woman behind Lin Feng did not leave together, a strange color flashed in Ling Shuyan's eyes.
"This is a worm."
"She is a survivor I found in other cities. She used to do biological research. She has been to underground insect nests and has a very good understanding of the habits and social structure of the insect race."
Lin Feng made some nonsense and gave a brief introduction.
Zhiyi immediately smiled at the woman in front of him.
She did not hide her aura. The powerful aura of a second-level awakener on her body shocked Ling Shuyan, but she quickly returned to normal and smiled back:
"Welcome to come and visit together. We know very little about the underground lair of the Zerg. Please ask Miss Lin to give you more information in the future."
Zhiyi smiled silently and nodded slightly.
Ling Shuyan immediately walked to the aisle on the right and introduced as she went upstairs:
"Ours is relatively small. The surgical equipment collected from more than a dozen hospitals in Jincheng can only be used for these ten operating rooms."
"The manpower is sufficient. Ten operations at a time can be completed in two hours at the earliest. If there are 72 people, it will be 16 hours. Considering the rest of the operating personnel, the task will not be completed until tomorrow morning at the earliest. "
Lin Feng nodded, and under the leadership of the other party, he entered the floors with laboratories on both sides.
Even if the entire space is illuminated by overhead lights, you can still feel a cold, solemn atmosphere in the air filled with alcohol and disinfectants.
The two surgeons and three auxiliary staff in the operating room are fully armed. Through the double-layer soundproof glass, you can vaguely see the eyes hidden behind the goggles. Their eyes are calm, but they keep staring at everyone.
After Ling Shuyan gave a general introduction, she walked to the stairs enthusiastically:
"It will take some time before they enter the operating room. The extraction of the original brainstem solution of the tiger spine worm is not ready yet. We can visit the laboratory area upstairs. There is an introduction to the latest transformation technology."
Zhi suddenly became interested and nodded to follow.
Ling Shuyan narrowed her eyes and smiled, stepping onto the steps.
An iron door with an electronic code lock appeared in front of everyone. The experimental area on the upper level had many defense facilities and appeared to be heavily guarded.
After Ling Shuyan entered her password and fingerprint verification, she slowly opened it. After experiencing the disinfectant gas and ultraviolet irradiation inside, the three of them put on masks and entered.
Different from the bright and bright operating room downstairs, the environment here is gloomy, the curtains are tightly closed, only the laboratory workbench is lit, and only one-third of the lights in the corridor are turned on, just like the hospital ward in the middle of the night.
Every few meters there was darkness.
Ling Shuyan turned around and said:
"Electricity consumption has been tight recently. The institute's electricity is delivered by a separately equipped generator. In order to ensure the normal operation of the operating room, other areas are trying to reduce energy consumption as much as possible."
Lin Feng nodded. Even the temporary base where Han Yuxin was located had only a few buildings with electricity, and the survivors were still living in a primitive environment where fires and water boiled.
If it weren't for the institute's experiments, it would be impossible to supply precious fuel resources here.
Another large consumer of coal and electricity is the steel forging plant in the Southern Heavy Industrial Zone.
After Ling Shuyan explained a few words, she took the two of them to a large laboratory, where some staff were dripping nutrient solution into the biomass in the petri dish and recording the progress of the cultivation.
The most eye-catching one is a cylindrical sealed glass vessel placed on the wall. The vessel filled with transparent liquid contains a flesh-red, slender creature the size of a fountain pen.
The reason why it is called a living thing...
Because this thing is still squirming in the vessel and showing amazing activity.
"Is this muscle tissue?"
Lin Feng remembered the pictures in the previous biology books and still had some vague impressions.
Ling Shuyan shook her head:
"Muscles don't have the ability to change genes, especially the body of a second-level awakened person."
"This is a gland that can carry Zerg genes. It comes from Shen Jie and other two original bodies. It is also the expression part of their ability to assimilate Zerg genes and their specific characteristics."
"You can call it a genetic gland."
"After it absorbs the Zerg gene fluid, it is decomposed and stored, and then placed in the zygote. This is the first step of the transformation."
"Then the zygote is implanted into the waist of the experimental subject, and connected to the nerves of the coccyx of the spine. The zygote will absorb the host's cell genes and use them as samples, and eventually split a batch of assimilated Zerg cells nearby."
"Of course, the gene gland can also be directly implanted into the body of the experimental subject, but doing so is like taking insect meat. Not many people can resist it. Even a second-level awakener will find it difficult to adapt in a short period of time, and there are many sequelae."
"And the zygote can control the amount of glandular injection, so that the transformed gene warrior has a gradual adaptation process, so as not to cause excessive assimilation and deformation, leading to surgical failure."
"The creation of gene glands combined with zygotes will be the greatest biotechnology since the end of the world."
Ling Shuyan flashed a fanatical look, and her emotions were a little excited.
"It will also be the guarantee for human beings to resist the Zerg!"
"And all this is thanks to Mr. Lin's generosity."
Lin Feng's eyes were calm, staring at the gene glands that were shrinking and expanding in the culture medium, like a living thing that could breathe.
He did not respond to Ling Shuyan's compliment, but asked another question:
"How is Qin Hu doing? This technology should have been put into mass production in the capital, right?"
Ling Shuyan was stunned for a moment, and then replied:
"Yes, yes. You are familiar with Qin Hu, and you should know the plight of the federal capital now. They are in urgent need of technology that can improve their strength in a short time, mass produce, and have low cost."
While speaking, Ling Shuyan's eyes glanced to the side from time to time, secretly observing the changes in Lin Feng's expression.
Although the other party agreed that the technology property rights belonged to the institute, and allowed Ling Shuyan to send it to other forces in the federation.
But that said, if Lin Feng was actually unwilling to share it, Ling Shuyan had to consider the other party's attitude. After all, once the performance of the gene warriors spread, it would not be just Qin Hu and his men who wanted to obtain it.
The exchange of interests during this period is not much lower than the transformation technology itself.
Other research institutes scattered around also have the latest discoveries and corresponding technologies. For example, the headquarters is conducting research on the superpowers of awakeners.
Ling Shuyan obtained some information from them, so that she could find the source of Shen Jie's superpowers so quickly, and then cultivate glands containing Zerg genes.
In a short period of time, perfect the gene modification technology.
Especially in the face of the doomsday, Ling Shuyan, as a pure scientific researcher, naturally hopes that various places can exchange what they have and what they need, first ensure that human strength is enough to survive.
Fortunately, during her explanation, Lin Feng did not show any displeasure.
Lin Feng's expressionless face was actually thinking about the identification results that appeared in front of him:
"Gene gland, orange quality"
"Evaluation: A perfect mixture of human awakening cells and Zerg genes, which can stably transfer Zerg genes to human flesh and achieve gene assimilation"
"Note: This technology has certain risks and is easy to pollute the original human gene pool and affect the awakening expression of other gene characteristics"
"Note: This technology creates a new hybrid species under unnatural conditions, which will affect the artistic conception inheritance of both humans and Zerg"
Lin Feng was silent for a moment and asked:
"If Shen Jie and his abilities can be transferred through genes and physical tissues, can other people's..."
Ling Shuyan swallowed her saliva. She felt that she underestimated the wisdom of the man in front of her. He was smarter than she thought.
Even Ling Yi, who was standing next to him, narrowed his eyes and looked at the squirming gene gland.
Facing Lin Feng's calm gaze at this moment, Ling Shuyan hesitated for a long time and then said the secret news she had just learned:
"Yes, theoretically speaking, as long as it is a human superpower, it can be transplanted to other human beings."
"Starting from the original stem cell group, they are induced to activate the gene expression of the corresponding superpower."
"This is what the headquarters is studying. I heard from them that they are currently planning to cultivate a perfect human being..."
"Gene completion plan, a perfect superman warrior who combines most of the superpowers of humans..."
"And according to their superman plan, the new human being born will become the son of prophecy of salvation, and can directly reach the third..."
The fourth-level strongman of human beings will have great potential.
