Human DNA has a total of three billion base pairs. Even if Luo Yuan's fifteen points of wisdom is completely impossible to memorize all of it, even if the meaningless DNA fragments that account for 98% are removed, there are still 60 million base pairs. , which is still a huge number.
But in fact, there is no need to be so troublesome. The genetic material of this cell is basically based on Luo Yuan as a template. Except for the genes that were deliberately adjusted before cloning to avoid having the same appearance, there are not many real changes in the genome.
Compared with Luo Yuan's own DNA, there are only eight more sets of genes between the two. At the same time, there are 1,350 sets of genes that have undergone subtle adjustments and changes, ranging from one or two base pairs to more There are only a few hundred, and the remaining nearly 30,000 groups are exactly the same as his original genes, involving only 50,000 to 60,000 base pair changes in total.
To be precise, it was fifty-six thousand, four hundred and fifty-six pairs. Of course, this number was still very large, but for Luo Yuan, it could barely be remembered.
Time passed by, Luo Yuan had been immersed in chromosomes, and it took three hours before he recovered his mind.
He closed his eyes and recalled for a long time. When he opened his eyes, his will was immersed in his cells again. He compared them with each other and found that they were accurate in his memory.
Luo Yuan raised his head, feeling a splitting headache in his brain, and breathed out gently.
All preparations have been completed, and the changes in the human body can be started at any time. However, after waiting for such a long time, there is no rush. But before that, he must have a good night's rest, recharge his batteries, and adjust to the best condition. .
He started warp flight and left here.
This cave is inside the mountain and is completely enclosed. It is safe, but it is not a place to rest.
And after Luo Yuan's three hours of breathing, the oxygen here is now extremely thin. Of course, even if Luo Yuan didn't breathe at all, he could still hold on for three or four hours. However, when he woke up, his hands and feet would probably be weak and his head would be dizzy. Not to mention that he was back to his best condition, it was already very difficult to stand up. alright.
…
He flew out of the mountain and randomly found a tree hole that was only big enough for one person. After killing all the insects and ants inside with his momentum, he got in and smelled the faint smell of decay inside. He huddled at the bottom of the tree hole. Close your eyes and fall asleep soon!
I slept for a full ten hours, and when I woke up it was already the early morning of the next day.
He stretched, looked at the time, and walked out of the tree hole refreshed. The sun hadn't come out yet, and it was still pitch black here. Only the whistle-like roars of countless mutated beasts came from a distance. It came one after another.
However, these beast roars no longer intimidate Luo Yuan as they did in the past. Now they are like ordinary background music in his heart and do not bother him at all. Except for some rare eighth-level creatures, the jungle has completely lost its mystery in his eyes. It is almost the same as in the reconstruction area, and there is no more danger than before.
A mutated beast that had been busy all night but couldn't find any food and was so hungry suddenly found Luo Yuan. Its green eyes lit up slightly, and it quickly crawled down in the grass and crawled towards it slowly...
Luo Yuan grinned. Naturally, he would not let go of this kind of food that came to his door automatically. In ten minutes, this mutated beast of hundreds of kilograms became a barbecue on the grill.
Luo Yueying ate a third of it and kept the other half. He found a stream nearby, removed the parasites in it, filled his stomach with it, and then filled a skin bag with the peeled off animal skins. There are dozens of kilograms of water in case of emergencies.
Human body modification and genetic modification are only the first step.
For cells, genes formulate all rules and are the supreme law. Moreover, this law is quite strict and meticulous, involving every activity, metabolism, birth, old age, illness and death of cells, and cannot allow for the slightest error.
If a gene finds that it is not in harmony with the cell, it will immediately activate a special mechanism to stimulate the cell to divide, express the cells under its new rules, and end the life of the original mother cell.
Of course, if the mother cell was conscious, it would probably feel even more unjust than Dou E. She obviously fulfilled her duties, worked conscientiously, and completely followed the rules set by the genes to carry out activities without any overstep. However, she didn't want the genes to suddenly change and the rules to change. It was originally legal. It suddenly became illegal, which was a complete disaster.
In other words, once the genetic modification is completed, Luo Yuan will immediately undergo a major cell renewal. In a short period of time, all the cells in his body will be replaced. This time will be shorter than imagined. Once the gene detects something wrong and starts the replacement mechanism, all cells will quickly complete division within a few minutes.
This intense splitting process not only consumes a lot of energy, but also requires a lot of materials and water.
After carrying the prepared food and water on his back, Luo Yuan thought carefully and found out that there were no omissions, and immediately started warp flight and entered the mountain again.
The noise outside completely disappeared, and everything became extremely silent.
However, at this moment when he was about to take the final step, he still hesitated. Although he had secretly tried this kind of genetic adjustment several times and succeeded every time, he still felt a little worried when he actually experimented with his own body. Frightened.
Genetic change is not a trivial matter. It is a change in the most fundamental rules of life. It may seem like a change of less than 1/200,000, but it is an earth-shaking change for the body. Once there is an error, or there is an error in expression, it will easily Then there will be deformities, and the person will become neither a human nor a ghost. In severe cases, the soul will be destroyed and the gene will collapse.
What's more, he still doesn't have a complete grasp of the brain.
But in the end Luo Yuan sighed. He had already reached this point. If he gave up again, all the energy he had invested before would be in vain. No matter how dangerous this time, he would take a risk.
To be cautious, Luo Yuan carefully memorized the genes that needed to be changed again!
The next moment, his will sank into his body.
The first part Luo Yuan modified was the sole of his foot, but he still needed to test it before that. He quickly selected an epidermal cell on the sole of his foot. With nineteen points of strong will, he no longer needed to micromanage everything. Adjustments are made for each base pair.
In particular, the memory of the base arrangement in the mind allows the spiritual power of will, which is used to make wishes come true, to become more precise and precise from the original rough and scattered state. The power of will is consumed less and the power of will is also deeper.
Luo Yuan just had a thought, and the cell was easily transformed.
He carefully examined the DNA strands on all chromosomes and found them to be accurate.
Seeing that the experiment was successful, Luo Yuan immediately started large-scale transformation. He adjusted his microscopic vision, and the cells quickly shrank and the field of view was enlarged. His eyes quickly changed from only one cell to countless densely packed cells the size of needle tips forming a group of cells.
The power of will spreads out quickly, formless, lightless and soundless, yet it quietly transforms hundreds of thousands of cells.
Seeing that the transformation was still effective with this magnification, Luo Yuan began to try bolder magnifications again.
At this time, he could no longer see any cells in his inner vision. All he could see were smooth bodies and tiny capillaries. There were tens of millions of cells in the area covered by his will...
After only twenty minutes, his legs had been completely transformed.
Then his hands, epidermis, muscles, and finally the internal organs and spinal cord. His will is like a dam releasing water, which is consumed rapidly. Fortunately, his will has reached nineteen points, and his perception has also reached seventeen points. Not only has the quality but also the quantity changed drastically, If it had been before, I'm afraid it would have been exhausted halfway through.
Two hours later, his transformation gradually approached the neck, face, and scalp.
When finally approaching the brain, the transformation had to be interrupted.
The will comes from one's own brain, and just as a person cannot see the back of his or her own head, the brain is still a restricted area where the will can see inwardly. However, he already knew this before the transformation and had already considered it.
There are two options before him now.
One is to leave it alone. As long as it is an independent tissue with complete functions, even if its genes are different from the body's own genes, it is generally not a big deal and will not cause cell conflict. For example, organ transplantation is a good solution. For example, if the body accepts other people's organs, as long as there is no rejection, the body can still live well.
However, it was precisely this rejection that made Luo Yuan have to consider the danger.
The human body will reject foreign objects, and the same goes for organs. Rejection reaction is an act of biological self-protection. The human body's immune system can identify self and non-self substances and produce antibodies to attack them.
Of course, the brain is not originally a foreign object, but when most of the body's genes have changed, even if it is not a foreign object, it has become a foreign object. Medical organ transplant rejection can also be suppressed with drugs, allowing the patient's body to slowly adapt. Finally merged and survived.
However, this situation is not suitable for him. He estimates that no drug can suppress his antibodies. Whether he can survive the rejection depends on luck.
The second method is to use all your willpower to perform black-box operations on the brain without being able to see the brain at all. Whether you can succeed depends on luck.
The first method is too negative. Even if the risk of rejection is not considered, leaving this area is still a hidden danger. Luo Yuan will naturally not take it. The second method is ten times and a hundred times more dangerous than the first one. There is no It doesn't matter if the transformation is successful. What he fears most is that half of the gene has been modified, or there are errors or omissions in the genes. Once these omissions and omissions are expressed, he may be dead.
But no matter how dangerous it is, he had already made a decision at the beginning of his transformation. No power can be obtained easily. He must pass this level. Since it all depends on luck, it is better to take a risk, not to mention , both past experiments and the transformation just now have proven one point.
As long as there is enough time, the will is strong enough, and there is no fear of waste, even if it is an organization composed of hundreds of billions of cells, through the subconscious mind, the will can penetrate deep into the chromosomes and complete the transformation of all cells in the entire organization. It can be said that the possibility of success is extremely high. .
Feeling that only one third of his will was left, Luo Yuan immediately closed his eyes to rest and began to regain his will.
A few hours later, Luo Yuan stood up with a serious look on his face.
Although the will has not yet reached its peak state, it has recovered two-thirds. For the brain, which has only about 14 billion cells, accounting for only 0.028% of the total number of cells in the human body, these wills are completely sufficient.
He closed his eyes to avoid visual interference. Fortunately, it was extremely quiet here and the closed environment reduced the interference from other senses. After taking a long breath, his heart gradually calmed down. There was no thought in his heart, and his thoughts were stable. Then, his will began to slowly gather,
The cave that was still invisible before now suddenly emitted a faint light, which became brighter and brighter. He seemed to have become a light man, shining this small cave as bright as day.
At the same time, a majestic and shocking atmosphere filled the air.
Perhaps at this critical moment of life and death, his will became more concentrated and pure than ever before.
The liquid-like light covered every inch of his skin. It was watery and seemed to be crystal clear, without any impurities.
It didn't last long, and soon, all the scattered will was instantly restrained, leaving only the head still emitting light. Immediately, the light became stronger and stronger, and after a few seconds, it reached its peak.
The entire head was like a miniature sun, emitting a strong light, and even the hair began to become transparent in this light.
And what was strange was that near him, DNA with a double helix structure appeared in large numbers out of thin air like phantoms, flickering one after another like projections.
This was the overflow of Luo Yuan's thoughts when he activated his will with all his strength.
The whole process lasted for a full hour. It was not until all Luo Yuan's will was exhausted that the transformation finally stopped. He sat on the ground, holding his head and feeling a splitting headache. At the same time, his mind seemed to have lost its restraints and began to wander.
Sometimes I worry about not succeeding, my hands and feet are cold with fear, and sometimes my anxious expression keeps changing. Will is the valve that controls emotions. Once the will is exhausted, emotions lose their restraint.
However, Luo Yuan's strong physique allowed Luo Yuan to recover his will very quickly. After more than ten minutes, he had gradually controlled his emotions.
At this time, Luo Yuan suddenly felt a slight itchiness on the soles of his feet. He was moved in his heart and quickly took off his shoes. He saw that the soles of his feet were slightly white, and a layer of tough dead skin had separated from the body, and these dead skins were still moving along the The soles of the feet spread rapidly.
Cell division and replacement has begun!
Perhaps there is some unknown way of transmitting information between the genes of various cells. Cell division spreads faster than Luo Yuan imagined. It is like enriched uranium starting a chain reaction. The soles of the feet just split five minutes ago. , and five minutes later, not only the feet, but also the body began to peel.
Not only the epidermis is being replaced, but the internal organs inside the body are also being replaced.
At the same time, a powerful and astonishing power slowly grew from Luo Yuan's body, and on the system attribute panel, the data representing his strength and physique were also beating rapidly.
He couldn't help but groan (harmony), the sound was thick and dull, with an indescribable sense of power, and the whole mountain seemed to be shaking slightly.
