Secret realm of inheritance, a certain building, genetic laboratory.
A group of strong men from the cultivation world were patrolling the laboratory.
"How is the research on gene fusion between humans and demons progressing now, Dr. Xiao?" A lake-level expert who looked quite old, at least over 60 years old, asked calmly.
"Oh, everything is going well now. We first chose to cooperate with a few demons that are closest to humans, and extracted some genetic samples for fusion experiments. The progress is now good." A ****** with a square face, wearing A middle-aged man in a white coat answered seriously.
The lake-level powerhouse became interested when he heard this, and immediately asked: "I wonder which kind of monster it is?"
"Pigs, monkeys, killer whales..." Dr. Xiao raised his glasses and listed.
"Well, this pig is ranked first, isn't it interesting?" The lake-level old man turned to the others and smiled.
"Haha, Gutou, you are really ignorant. Don't you know that pig organs are the closest to humans? Many medical transplant surgeries use pig organs." A young man mocked arrogantly. .
"Well, sir, in fact, so far, there has been no real case of transplanting pig organs into humans," Dr. Xiao pointed out sincerely, "With the advent of the Shenyuan Era, many medical frontiers have Research has been interrupted because a lot of research funds have been allocated to mysterious research."
"Hmph, I only tasted it briefly, and one bottle is less than half the bottle. Isn't that what you are doing, kid? You still have to listen to the experts." The old cultivator immediately turned back with contempt.
The young man's face suddenly darkened, and he glared at Dr. Xiao who was causing trouble, as if he wanted to have a seizure.
"What do you want to do? Xiaowen, you are so immodest. If you make a mistake, it is a mistake. Why is your own face so important?" A team leader immediately reprimanded.
"I'm sorry, Captain Zhao, I was wrong." The young man surnamed Wen immediately became depressed. Although he looked down on these powerless researchers, he did not dare to question his team leader.
The latter's authority was established in battle after battle.
"Well, Dr. Xiao, I'm sorry. I was not good at discipline and I frightened you." The team leader apologized seriously.
"It's okay, get used to it. In the new era, we all work in logistics and don't have the same status as before," Dr. Xiao said half seriously and half complaining, and then continued, "Now I will show you several fusions. Results.”
"Thank you, Dr. Xiao, please go ahead."
"come together."
A group of people walked next door and saw a halfling with a "pig head" lying on his back in a clean glass shed, sleeping comfortably.
"This is Experiment No. 1. He was originally a volunteer who was fused with the genes of a powerful pig demon. Now he can eat many things, and even under extreme conditions, he can survive by eating soil. In this way, the future interstellar The pioneers can greatly enhance their ability to adapt to the environment. If they are really hungry and can't bear it, they can chew rocks and eat dirt." Dr. Xiao said seriously.
"Hiss..." A group of cultivators looked at each other.
"You are too cruel, how can you still call people like this?" Gutou really couldn't stand it.
"Hey, this is pretty good. We will save money when we pay wages in the future. Each person will get a thousand kilograms of soil to take home." Someone mocked.
When Dr. Xiao heard this, his expression changed slightly but he said nothing.
A young female researcher following him couldn't help but retort: "Do you think this is what we want to study? Isn't this the research needs set by you leaders?"
"Well, Xiao Xu, don't talk to investors like this. After all, what they say is right," Dr. Xiao shook his head, "But that's the fact. We researchers can't decide the research direction ourselves."
At this time, someone asked seriously: "This soil and stones do not contain energy. Even if they can be digested and decomposed when eaten, they will not provide the energy needed by the human body?"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the person who asked the question.
I saw that the other party was slender, wearing a suit, and very capable. At first glance, he looked like a business elite of the past era.
There are really people who have such thoughts!
"Haha, this was definitely not possible in the past, but isn't this the age of vitality? Mud and stones are also saturated with vitality. As long as they are eaten, they can be converted into energy through the pig demon's unique genes. Isn't it already possible? Is it the mutual transformation of natural energy and vitality? So theoretically, this is achievable." Dr. Xiao still explained seriously.
"That's right. This vitality is just like air. It is free and has use value but no exchange value. In other words, it can be used without spending money." The capable business elite nodded. "In this way, manpower The cost can be greatly reduced, your research is very good."
"Huh, that's really crooked." The ancient head just said disdainfully.
This person should eat well. This mysterious technology turns people into people who eat stones and dirt. No matter how you look at it, it is wrong.
But he couldn't come up with any more objections. When developing planets in the universe, there is no shortage of solar energy. In other words, there is no shortage of vitality, but food cannot be grown everywhere.
"Hey, I have another question. Now that the food problem is solved, what should we do about oxygen? There is no oxygen in many places." Someone continued to ask.
"Oh, we are also studying this issue. There are many anaerobic bacteria on the earth, but there are too few demonic anaerobic bacteria. But there is an idea. I heard that the omnipotent bacteria in a nearby food factory seem to have wisdom. signs. If after it becomes a demon, we can communicate with it and fuse part of its genes with humans, then it will be possible to transform different gases into oxygen for humans to absorb, or even The human body turns green and produces its own organic matter,” Dr. Xiao continued to break down.
"That's enough!" The old man suddenly became irritable, "These are all nonsense ideas. If this continues, people will no longer be human, and there will be no human race in the future. Everyone will become a human monster!"
Although the old man was old, he was a lake-level powerhouse, but his voice was loud. It shook the entire laboratory and caused some utensils to shatter with a bang.
"Brother Gu, why are you doing this? This is a serious scientific discussion, not a time to lose your temper!" The team leader stood up, stretched out his hand, and calmed down the surrounding area.
"Hmph, you just go ahead and discuss it. Old man, I'll go find the Divine Dragon Master to seek justice!" The ancient head turned around and left.
"The older people get, the smaller their hearts become. What's the difference between this and children?" Someone looked at the ancient head's leaving figure and said disdainfully, "Besides, as long as the internal affairs of the human race do not violate the bottom line, Shenlong will not do anything about it. Interference, if he goes to find it, what’s the use?”
"Haha, we have to allow different opinions," the team leader shook his head and said, "Dr. Xiao, are these experimenters completely voluntary?"
"Of course, we promise to provide them with training resources and sign an accidental death protection agreement. Although we cannot afford the billions of mana for perfect reincarnation, it is still easy to reincarnate into a butterfly and ant, or even become a robot. In the new era, people The fear of death is getting lower and lower, and volunteers are easier to find. If you work hard, you can eat for three years." Dr. Xiao said humorously.
"That's great. Your efforts are effective. Although it may not be understood for a while, just like many new technologies are demonized when they first come out, everyone will admit it in the end." The team leader said with relief.
… …
Qicheng Dragon Cave.
The ancient head came out of the secret realm and flew all the way.
In his opinion, the only way to stop this evil trend is to rely on a righteous dragon!
When he was in front of the dragon's lair and told the gatekeeper Zheng the purpose of his visit one by one, he sat on a piece of bluestone and couldn't help but get angry.
"What do you mean by this? Researching such a rebellious technology is simply against human ethics! People like us have evolved for millions of years, but we are going to turn into pigs and dogs in the end. How can we still be called humans?"
Butler Zheng said helplessly: "Old sir, don't be angry. There is no right or wrong in this kind of thing. It is just a technical route. They are also for the rapid development of mankind. In the face of survival, appearance is not important."
"But, but, haven't we reached that stage yet?" Gutou said holding his breath, "As soon as I saw that pig-headed man, I wanted to slap him to death. This is simply humiliating. I don't want my descendants to suffer in the future. Being called a bastard!"
"You need to calm down first, and I'll report it to your Majesty right away." Butler Zheng consoled him.
"Okay, go quickly." The old man waved his hand and urged.
