"Hiss..."
The black snake spit out its tongue and tightly wrapped around the dark green toad, and its black body kept shrinking.
Puff, puff, there were popping sounds, that was the sound of the bumps on the back of the dark green toad exploding.
Streams of sticky venom splattered on the black snake's body, corroding holes on its scaly body. Through the holes, one could even see the snake's pink internal organs.
“Gugu~~”
The bumps on its back burst one by one, and the dark green toad was entangled tightly. Its belly bulged weakly, and only two toad legs were exposed, shaking from time to time.
It looks like the winner has been decided! Tang Song watched the two alien insects decide the winner, and the result was not too surprising to him.
This snake is an exotic beast captured from the pristine jungles of Borneo by animal hunters from the Osborne Group.
Animal hunters refer to those hunters who roam in remote mountains and forests to hunt rare birds and animals.
In the past, high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen purchased these rare animals for the purpose of curiosity and showing off.
Later, with the advancement of modern biotechnology, some rare animals attracted the attention of many scientists. These animals often contain a lot of valuable treasures, such as their genes.
Just like the chameleon's ability to change color, the lizard's ability to regenerate, and the electric eel's ability to discharge electricity, they are all excellent research materials for biological research.
The rarer the animal, the more popular it is. A group of animal hunters went to Borneo to look for the legendary python, and brought back a strange black snake, which was eventually auctioned off by the Osborne Group for a high price of US$200,000.
As the world's leading biotechnology company, the Osborne Group naturally has to conduct research in this area. The wealthy Osborne supports many animal hunters.

"Don, it looks like this black snake won this Roman jousting game. Crunch, crunch."
Bob bit into a potato chip and said in a vague voice, "When does the experiment start? Should we wait until the black snake recovers?"
"No need!" Tang Song looked at the black snake, looked at the wounds all over its body, and raised his eyebrows: "Professor Connors will use this laboratory the day after tomorrow. We don't have much time left, so we should conduct genetic modification experiments now!"
Transcription gene experiment, as the name suggests, is to carry out gene transcription grafting.
A Chinese-American professor named Wu at Harvard University once recombined some frog genes and crocodile gene fragments to clone a crocodile with amazing jumping ability.
It is said that Dr. Wu joined a multinational biological company and became the chief researcher. According to rumors, this multinational company has been committed to paleontological research.
The research directions of Professor Connors, Bob, and Tang Song are roughly the same as those of Professor Wu.
It’s just that Professor Connors took a fancy to the lizard’s ability to heal broken limbs and tried to integrate this ability into humans.
Tang Song and Bob's research direction is to carry out genetic fusion between animals and cultivate new species with significant economic value.
"Which gene should we perform first? Chameleon or electric eel? Or how about these lizards? These are all Professor Connors' treasures!"
Bob opened the door of a cold storage room on one side and pushed out a small cart. On the reagent rack were rows of various genetic reagents.
There are names all over it, such as King Chameleon, Black Widow Spider, Mangshan Ironhead, Bamboo Leaf Green Pitfalls, Blue Ringed Octopus…
There are many common, rare and diverse animals on the market. Most of these animals have special skills, or are the best among their kind.
Tang Song walked to the reagent rack, turned his back to Bob, and stroked a row of reagents with his fingers. A green light sank into the row of reagents.
"Try integrating the electric eel gene first!"
Tang Song picked up a reagent and put it into the compartment below the culture room.
"Tang, I hope what you said about raising insects is really effective. This is cross-species genetic recombination!"
Bob put down the potato chips, walked to the computer, sat down, moved the mouse and tapped twice on the computer screen.
Chi chi chi…
As the spraying program in the culture room started, white mist was sprayed out this time.
These drugs have a strong anesthetic effect and can make an elephant unconscious in three seconds. Once they were sprayed out, the black snake that was trying to devour the dark green toad's corpse suddenly softened.
"Come on, baby!"
Bob used a computer to control the mechanical arm, which stabbed the black snake with a needle.
Tang Song stood in front of the one-way glass in the culture room, "looking" at the tense muscles under the black snake's seemingly soft body, with a smile flashing in his eyes.
This black snake has a high IQ. It can fight its way out among hundreds of alien insects. It can truly be called an “exotic beast”!
I just don't know if it can be of great use after genetic recombination!
Tang Song watched the needle pierce into the black snake's body. As the genetic medicine was pushed in, the black snake's body began to twist wildly.
Snap, snap, snap, the black snake's tail was swinging wildly, and its upper body was entangled in confusion, almost twisted into a knot.
The bushes in the culture room were crackling as they were whipped by it. Fine snake scales covered in blood flew everywhere, and the entire culture room was suddenly in a mess. After a long time, the black snake stopped struggling and floated on the water.
"Dead!" Bob looked at the motionless black snake and the values displayed on the life monitoring instrument, and looked at Han Li in astonishment.
"Tang, you must be kidding. We spent so much time using the ancient secret technique you mentioned to cultivate poisonous insects, and the result is... Shit!"
Bob couldn't help but yelled, "We spent millions of dollars on this experiment, but there's no result at all. We will be fired!"
"Continue the injection, using the genes of Mangshan Ironhead!"
Tang Song's expression was calm, and his eyes behind his glasses were unusually calm.
When Bob looked into Tang Song's eyes, he seemed to see the deep pool on his hometown farm, calm, deep and daunting.
Bob suddenly had an idea, and then he lowered his head and operated: "Okay, since you want to do this, but this black snake is obviously cold, oh!"
The moment the robotic arm approached, the black snake in the culture room instantly shot up, its head biting the clamp of the robotic arm tightly, its sharp fangs spraying out transparent venom.
Looking at the obvious corrosion spots on the alloy mechanical arm, Bob swallowed in fear and exclaimed.
"Shit! This snake is playing dead!"
Bob's face turned pale, and cold sweat instantly flowed down his forehead. Just now, seeing that the black snake had no breath of life, he wanted to pick it out and dispose of it.
Fortunately, we didn't do that. If someone was bitten by the snake without paying attention, considering the toxicity of the snake, the anti-snake venom serum in the laboratory would definitely be useless.
"Tang, do you want to continue the experiment?"
Bob was a little hesitant and looked at Tang Song.
The intelligence of this snake and the strength of its venom are clearly beyond those of ordinary snakes.
If genetic recombination really succeeds, what kind of monster it will be.
"continue!"
