Genetic engineering is difficult to say and easy to say.
In modern earth education, middle school students have already been exposed to some relevant knowledge. To put it simply, it is nothing more than constructing hybrid DNA molecules in vitro and then introducing them into living cells to change the original genetic characteristics of organisms and obtain new varieties and products.
Only four steps are required—one more than putting an elephant in the refrigerator:
The first step is to extract the target gene;
In the second step, the target gene is combined with the carrier;
The third step is to introduce the target gene into the recipient cells;
The fourth step is detection and expression of the target gene.
But it is simple in theory, but in practice it is somewhat difficult, to be precise, it is technically difficult.
Genetic engineering changes genes and operates at the base level, which requires a series of high-end technologies such as "nucleic acid gel electrophoresis technology", "nucleic acid molecular hybridization technology", "DNA sequence analysis technology", and "gene site-directed mutation technology" support.
For this reason, genetic engineering was not developed until the 1970s on the modern earth. Only at that time could there be sufficient technical level and operable instruments and equipment.
In the current wizarding world similar to the Middle Ages, if nothing else, it would be difficult to manufacture an electron microscope, let alone the required PCR machines and electrophoresis equipment.
This has nothing to do with personal wisdom, but the limitations of the world.
Conducting genetic engineering at the current world level is like asking a 100-meter giant to hold an embroidery needle and make micro-carvings on a walnut.
This is simply impossible.
So...that's it
Richard frowned, not wanting to give up so simply, and paced back and forth in the room thinking.
Gutas, who was tied to a chair, made a "tsk, tsk" sound from his mouth.
Richard raised his eyebrows and looked at the other person, who had a nonchalant look on his face, as if to say, "Don't pay attention to me, I'm just happy to see you worry." This may be the only revenge the other person can do.
Richard ignored it and continued to pace and think, while Gutas's "tsk, tsk" sound kept ringing.
Richard stopped and looked at Gutas.
Gutas was not gagged at this time, and said: "Don't look at me, you evil alchemist, you must have encountered some problem, hehe, you continue to think, I won't disturb you, Tsk tsk.”
Richard frowned deeply, looked at Gutas and said: "The reason why I don't want to block your mouth is because you have been more cooperative recently, or there is nothing you can't do to cooperate. But if you are going to use tut If the way you use your mouth disturbs my thoughts, then I don’t mind plugging your mouth forever—after all, you don’t need to use it to eat, right?”
As Richard spoke, he turned his hand, took out an Erlenmeyer flask from the space iron ring, and walked up to Gutas.
"You have never heard of swallowing a light bulb, right? But the same goes for swallowing an Erlenmeyer flask. Because of the temporomandibular joint, I can easily put this Erlenmeyer flask into your mouth, but after putting it in , the bottle occupies the oral space and prevents the temporomandibular joint from sliding forward, ensuring that you will never be able to take out the Erlenmeyer flask completely. Do you want to give it a try?"
"I..." Gutas stopped talking. He couldn't understand what Richard meant, but he already understood the truth. It would never do anything good to fight Richard head-on.
In this case…
Gutas gave up decisively and turned his head to look aside without saying a word.
"This is best." Richard said, turned around and started walking again, rubbing the surface of the Erlenmeyer flask in his hand, thinking and thinking.
"Shashasha..."
The Erlenmeyer flask was turning in Richard's hand, and Richard's thoughts were quickly passing through his mind...
After a while, Richard couldn't find any ideas. He sat down on the chair next to him with some boredom. His eyes moved down and naturally fell on the Erlenmeyer flask in his hand. He was about to put the Erlenmeyer flask back into the space iron ring. The next moment, his eyes flickered.
One flash and three flashes.
Erlenmeyer flask? bottle
Richard thought of something and put the Erlenmeyer flask on the table next to him. He flipped his hand and took out another bottle from the space iron ring - a drift bottle.
By the way, why do you want to study the secrets of the "Spartan Heroic Potion" and bloodline seeds? It was because the previous research on drift bottles had completed a stage and fell into a bottleneck.
So why did the research on drift bottles complete a stage and fall into a bottleneck? It's because the basic magic pattern on the drift bottle has been successfully cracked, and the remaining magic patterns either have unclear functions or are too complicated, like fused cells.
Fusion cells
Unstable mutation
Modification of genetic material at the DNA level
Isn't this genetic engineering? !
Well, of course, to be precise, this is a genetic engineering method used by wizards in the current world. Its mechanism cannot be known. We can only know that it can achieve some effects similar to genetic engineering.
This effect is uncontrollable in a sense. It is possible that what you want is one kind, but what it gives you is another kind.
But if it doesn't work once, you can try it twice. If it doesn't work twice, you can try it three times. If it doesn't work three times, you can try it ten times, a hundred times, or a thousand times - as long as you keep doing it, you will eventually succeed once.
Richard's eyes sharpened and he felt that he had found a way to solve the problem.
It can be expected that for a long time to come, he will spend a certain amount of time every day conducting cell fusion culture research, and he will not be successful for a long time.
However, he is confident that as long as he keeps going, he will eventually get results that meet the requirements.
This can be considered a daily job.
In addition to his daily work, he can start other research at the same time - such as the research on the mechanism of magic patterns.
Of course, before doing all of this, one thing he needs to do is... draw a tube of Gutas' blood first.
Richard turned to look at Gutas. Gutas was being honest. Suddenly his whole body went cold. Looking at Richard's eyes that were obviously different from usual, he said with a trembling voice: "You... what do you want to do?"
"It's nothing, I just draw some blood for you. You are used to it."
"It's weird to get used to it, wait a minute! Aren't you drawing blood? Why do you use such a big needle? Why is the tube filled with blood so much thicker than the previous one? Are you really drawing blood? How much are you planning to draw this time? Are you ready to drain me dry? Damn it, you evil alchemist, don’t come here! Get out of here, get out of here, you are not draining blood at all, you are trying to kill me! Ah, get out of here, get out of here... Uh-huh... "
Gutas struggled, but Richard stuffed an Erlenmeyer flask into his mouth. Then a thick needle was inserted into his body and he began to draw blood vigorously.
After a while, Gutas stopped struggling and lay softly on the chair. He felt that his eyes were going dark, he was dizzy and flustered, his hands and feet were cold, as if he was about to die, and his heart was extremely desperate, but in fact it was just... It's just caused by drawing too much blood in a short period of time.
Richard ignored Gutas and got busy, preserving blood and preparing cell culture medium to prepare for follow-up plans.
