"Boss, the process of the T virus transforming the host into a zombie has been completely summarized."
Two days later, Chen Chen stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the isolation room, looking at the five experimental subjects tied to the stretcher inside the floor-to-ceiling window. Hannibal behind him was holding a report and reading:
"After the T virus enters the cells of the human circulatory system, it will first release RNA, disguised as the host's RNA. Once it is successfully parasitized, the polymerase will slide one by one along the RNA strands covered with bead-like proteins until it reaches the correct location. of RNA ends."
"Then, the polymerase will read the code on the RNA and synthesize the corresponding messenger RNA. Once a polymerase starts to read the genetic information of the RNA, it will collide with other polymerases that are still sliding, causing them to Move around inside the cell until they too find the correct RNA end and start replicating..."
"In the end, the T virus will infect every cell in the host's body and kill a large number of immune cells on the way. When these immune cells die, the host's body will begin to decay."
Chen Chen listened quietly.
"At present, it seems that the transmission of T virus is temporarily through body fluids, including blood, saliva, sweat, tears, sputum, etc. However, when the virus reaches a certain concentration, it can also be airborne through volatilization. Of course, it must reach that level. This concentration can only be achieved by breaking a T-virus container of about one billion units, and the virus can only survive in the air for less than an hour before it causes protein inactivation and death."
"In the end, the immune system will collapse under the attack of the T virus, and the host will die completely. However, after death, the host will officially enter the zombie state..."
Hannibal continued, "After experimental observation, after the death of the host, the host's body functions will stop for three to five minutes, and then the T virus will restart the host's brain cells and bring the host back to life."
"At this time, the host is actually completely dead, but its cells are still alive. At present, it seems that the weak current in brain cells caused by the T virus will last for more than a few months."
"Of course, this is not actually a resurrection in the true sense. It just becomes a walking zombie with instinctive reactions. It may have some memory, but it is definitely not wisdom. And because the virus requires a lot of energy to reproduce, zombies will Driven by basic impulses and needs.”
"To put it simply, that's...eat!"
Hannibal put down the report in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief, "Boss, are you still satisfied with this report?"
"Okay, it's very detailed."
Chen Chen crossed his arms and nodded, "In other words, after turning into a zombie, you can theoretically be active for a few more months?"
"Yes, it will take about three to five months to completely dissolve, but this is just a theory after all."
Hannibal replied, "If nutrition is insufficient for a long time, the zombies will starve to death within ten days, and if the zombies are injured, the wounds will become inflamed and suppurative, and necrosis will occur. However, this process is more complicated than that of living people." It’s just long.”
"very good."
Chen Chen suddenly turned around and asked, "How is your research going with Neumann?"
Neumann was one of the three genius-level researchers selected by Chen Chen. Hannibal, Li Lei and Neumann were once responsible for the hormone control technology of human cloning. However, later on, the number of research projects gradually increased, and the three Talents gradually divided their work.
"You mean hormone control technology?"
Hannibal replied, "Currently, hormone control technology can shorten the life span of clones from one year to half a year. This is probably the limit. After all, it takes a lot of effort to directly grow a fertilized egg to the size of an adult." Time."
"I know, half a year is almost enough."
Chen Chen thought for a while and said, "The three of you will work on the next project together."
"Next project?"
The two of them suddenly became curious, and then Li Lei looked at the five zombies in the isolation room, his expression lit up, "I understand, is it an organic biological weapon?"
Following Li Lei's reminder, Hannibal finally understood.
The three Hannibals first studied the human cloning project. Later, after the human cloning project was successful, Chen Chen asked the three of them to continue researching hormone regulation technology. The second project can be said to be a derivative project of human cloning, and the current three projects, Of course it is still a derivative project of human cloning.
"Yes, you have already guessed what the next project is."
Chen Chen nodded and said in appreciation, "We already know that the T virus cannot be adapted to humans. The consequence of forcibly fusing the T virus is to become a walking zombie. But what if we use fertilized eggs to fuse the T virus?"
"As long as the T virus is infected in the state of a fertilized egg, the T virus will naturally become a part of the fertilized egg. The creature born in this way is a biological weapon that can truly integrate with the T virus!"
Having said this, Chen Chen suddenly showed a look of anticipation, "And what kind of power will the black knight created in this way have?"
…
Research on the T virus is still continuing, but the next focus is already on organic biological weapons.
Hannibal, Li Lei and Neumann also officially launched the third project - the organic biological weapons research project.
However, in the setting of Resident Evil, the T virus is not actually the limit of power, such as the G virus, C virus, Veronica virus, and a series of more powerful viruses transformed from the ancestor virus.
For example, the G virus is an individual whose mutation ability far exceeds that of the T virus.
The power of this virus is that it does not need to be cultured from fertilized eggs to create organic biological weapons like the T virus. Instead, it can be cultured directly from adult organisms.
In other words, whether in terms of money or time, the G virus is far more efficient in cultivating biological weapons than the T virus. No wonder the researcher in the "Resident Evil" game once said, "The T virus is just a waste that can only create zombies." Such words.
But unfortunately, the G virus only exists in the game world, and there is no G virus in the "Resident Evil" movie.
In the information Chen Chen got back, there was no mention of the G virus, which meant that the world view of the movie only had the T virus, not the G virus.
Although it is a pity, it is also normal when you think about it.
After all, the ability of the G virus is so incredible that it can even make a human grow from the size of a cruise ship in a few minutes, which completely violates the law of conservation of mass and energy.
If possible, Chen Chen is also planning to start another research project to improve the T-virus and develop his own customized version.
What is a customized version
To put it simply, the customized version is a virus that can only adapt to the customizer's genes, which means that this T virus can perfectly integrate with the customizer's genes to achieve an effect similar to fertilized egg cultivation.
Just like the protagonist Alice in the movie who perfectly integrates the T-virus.
The reason why Alice was able to fuse with the T virus was because of luck. The chance was less than one in a million.
Chen Chen, on the other hand, wanted to use genetic engineering technology to forcibly create a T-virus that could match his own.
If he can succeed, Chen Chen will once again gain physical fitness that surpasses ordinary people on the basis of superpowers. Whether it is strength, speed, or even physique and lifespan, it will be several times that of ordinary people!
Of course, this kind of customized virus will be extremely difficult, and the road will be long and difficult...
