Sunset dusk. After the initial excitement passed, most of the researchers in McDonald's research group got off work together with a sense of joy and accomplishment, and prepared to go to the highest-end hotel in the city center to hold a celebration banquet. Greg promised to reimburse him for all expenses at the celebration banquet.
In the huge central laboratory, only Greg and a 21-year-old young researcher were left at the moment. The young researcher's name is Xiang Keping, an ordinary researcher in the research team. He is working tirelessly to organize the files on the desktop, with a cheerful smile hanging on his lips, immersed in the moment when Dr. Moses announced that the project had been solved.
Xiang Keping finished organizing the files on the desktop and was about to leave the laboratory and pick up his luggage for get off work. At this time, he discovered that in this huge central laboratory that had gathered the entire research team, more than a dozen people, and two months of hard work, Dr. Moses was the only one left.
Dr. Moses sat in the chair in front of the superior computer, silently looking at the stack of reports in his hand. Looking from the side, Dr. Moses seemed to be thinking about something.
Xiang Keping patted his face, suppressed his nervousness, and walked up to try to talk to Dr. Moses.
Now that the research project is over, the original simple identity between team member and team leader has suddenly transformed into a widely disparate identity between an ordinary scientific researcher and the branch director of Academia Sinica. This made Xiang Keping hesitate to talk to Dr. Moses.
But now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you want to climb higher and get more meaningful research topics to prove yourself, you must seize the opportunity to be alone with Dr. Moses.
Xiang Keping walked up to Greg. Greg was engrossed in the pile of MacDonald gene chain analysis reports and did not notice Xiang Keping approaching.
"Dr. Moses, you... Hello, everyone is going to the celebration banquet, won't you go?" Xiang Keping mustered up his courage. He was a shy guy, and this was more nervous for him than trying to pick up a girl on the street.
"I'll just be responsible for reimbursing you. Celebrating is something you young people like. I still have follow-up work to do." Greg said without raising his head.
"Doctor, is there anything I can do to help?" Xiang Keping asked tentatively.
Greg simply said: "No."
He didn't say a word.
Xiang Keping was a little embarrassed. Dr. Moses completely stopped talking. He was so shy that he couldn't find a topic to talk to Dr. Moses shamelessly.
"Then... Okay. Dr. Moses, I'm going back first. You've worked hard these days. Goodbye." Xiang Keping lowered his head and bowed, then hid his face and hurried out of the laboratory. At the same time, I feel why I am so useless, I don’t even have the ability to seize opportunities.
Greg was the only one left in the empty laboratory. He silently flipped through a stack of report analysis sheets, which were full of important components and changes in the McDonald gene chain calculated by the supercomputer.
Greg has sent the report via an encrypted fax machine to the General Research Institute of Academia Sinica in Xinjing. His next task is to return to Xinjing with Macdonald with the escort team from Xinjing.
But before that, Greg wanted to advance the verification progress as much as possible.
Greg's lifelong scientific research dream is to prevent pure humans from being abandoned by this evolutionary era. The way to solve this problem at its root is to allow pure humans to become pioneers.
Genetically enhanced warriors are a compromise step.
Aberrant viruses can infect ordinary human cells, causing their genetic structure to collapse and reorganize, and finally evolve into new pioneer cells. Pioneer cells tend to have stronger vitality and lifespan than ordinary human cells, and the tissues and organs they form also have stronger functions. The psionic virus will remain within these evolved cells and exert its own abilities, allowing the Pioneers to use psionic powers.
Antibodies against alien viruses are ubiquitous in pure human cells, which makes pure human cells very special. They can either be destroyed by alien viruses, or obliterate alien viruses, and be evolved by alien viruses to accommodate their existence inside the cells. The probability is "negative".
By studying the Pioneer cells in the Pioneers' bodies, Greg came up with a way to make pure humans stronger. That is to separate the naturally integrated "pioneer cells" and "superpower viruses": He extracted the antibodies of the superpower viruses from the pure human cell group and injected them into the pioneer cell group to kill the superpower viruses inside. Obtain a pure pioneer cell population. The pure pioneer cell population is then injected into the body of a pure human individual.
Based on this idea, after countless improvements in the experimental process and the sacrifices of countless volunteers, Greg finally invented a method that could be injected into pure human bodies and stably replace the cell population in a certain part with the pioneer cell population. Gene-enhancing agents that cause minimal or no rejection reactions.
But Greg Moses wasn't satisfied yet. He has been studying the compatibility of pure human cells and supernatural viruses, looking for the truth of what this "negative possibility" is outside the realm rejected by the truth. Later he found the truth, which was the resilience and limit of the genetic chain.
It is precisely because the toughness and limit of the gene chain of pure human cells are generally low, so when there are antibodies fighting against the super-powered virus, the gene chain cannot support the horrific genetic war, causing the cells to collapse and die.
On the other hand, whether it is a mutant creature, a plague species, a pioneer, a pure human, or an ordinary human, the toughness and limits of the gene chain of every creature are innate and determined genetically, and cannot be changed by external forces. .
After finding the direction, he hit a dead end, which made Greg give up for a while. Sixteen years ago, he heard another rumor about the "Artificial Pioneer Project." The leaders in the rumors are the five standing committee members of the Supreme Herald Committee. At that time, Greg did not have that much power and status, and the five members of the Standing Committee, who had impeccable power, financial resources, and strength, were unwilling to tell Greg, so Greg had no way of knowing any secrets, and could only turn this idea into a secret. The seeds remain.
Sixteen years later, after a long career in scientific research, Greg had already put aside his unrealistic dream of "transforming pure humans into pioneers", but unexpectedly he met MacDonald.
Greg learned from the research report of the supercomputer that the true ability of the second-level virus called "Super Devouring" is to super-strengthen and extend the toughness and limit of the genetic chain!
In other words, this virus can change the innate genetic chain of living things, completing the first step in breaking through the realm of being rejected by the truth!
