"Don't worry, you people are the company's assets, and the company can't just waste it in vain." Liu Qian nodded.

"Thank you very much, but what is more important than us now is our experimental project, especially the samples required for the experimental project. The top priority is that without enough samples, the project cannot continue, and if it is delayed any longer, some The research has failed and we have to start from scratch again. The most important thing after you return is to ensure that we have enough experimental samples." Wei Liang continued to talk to Liu Qian.

"Do the experimental samples refer to normal uninfected humans?" Liu Qian asked Wei Liang.

"Yes, under the current circumstances, we still need at least 50 experimental samples to ensure the follow-up research for half a month, and we may need more after that." Wei Liangming nodded.

"Okay, you don't have to stay with us here. It's better to ask your experimenters to sort out the projects on hand and bring them over as soon as possible. I want to listen to your reports carefully before I can arrange the next step." Liu Qian He waved his hand to Wei Liang.

"Okay, I'll ask them to get ready right now." Wei Liang responded and walked out of the conference room. After greeting the experimenters, he briefly summarized the progress of the experimental projects at hand, and then came to the conference room one after another.

Ten minutes later, all the experimenters gathered in the conference room. There were only eighteen people in total, which was a few more than the number of people who greeted Liu Qian and others at the hatch, but it was not as many as Liu Qian had imagined. Still a lot less.

Among the eighteen experimenters, there were thirteen male experimenters and five female experimenters.

The young woman following Wei Liang had not appeared before. After she appeared in the conference room, Han Guangming and Zhao Meng's pupils were slightly dilated, and their eyes subconsciously stayed on her pretty face. After a while, he quickly moved away.

"She is my assistant, her name is Sunina, and she is a genius researcher." Wei Liang took the initiative to introduce the four of them after seeing the looks in Han Guangming and Zhao Meng's eyes.

"Hello, distinguished guests." Sunina greeted Liu Gan and the others, her voice as sweet as hers. Han Guangming and Zhao Meng were so fascinated that their faces turned red, but Liu Qian didn't even raise his eyelids.

After briefly introducing the participants. The meeting started soon. The reports of these experimenters were quite professional, and Liu Qian couldn't understand them at all. Fortunately, Yinhe could understand part of it, and compared it with some data in her memory, and transformed it into relatively easy-to-understand content. It was transmitted to Liu Qian's headset through a very slight voice, allowing Liu Qian to talk about it. The responses during these reports also seemed relatively professional.

Galaxy's current appearance is that of an armored warrior. She wore a full-face helmet and spoke in a lowered voice. Except for Liu Qian, she could hear her. In the eyes of others, she had been sitting upright and motionless, just like a stone.

Seeing how professional Liu Qian was, Wei Liang and his testers also had serious expressions on their faces, and took turns introducing the projects in their hands to Liu Qian and the other four.

Through the reports of these people and Yinhe's translation, Liu Qian slowly figured out what the research project of this secret laboratory was. It must be said that their research is still very complex, all related to marine life.

Extracting certain anti-cancer drugs from the brains and bodies of marine organisms is too childish. Their research is mainly on the combination of the characteristics of marine organisms and humans. For example, it allows humans to breathe freely in sea water, allows humans to withstand water pressure thousands of meters deep, allows humans to discharge electricity like electric eels, and allows humans and fish genes to hybridize. Produce real mermaids or something.

Most of the research topics made Liu Qian feel a little disappointed, even drowsy. Only two research projects interested him.

One is how people can survive underwater and breathe like a fish. To this end, they conducted a lot of experiments, hunted many deep-sea creatures, studied their genes, and extracted a large number of very strange substances. Then they injected some drugs into the bodies of these deep-sea creatures, causing their brains to produce a special substance, and then injected this substance into the human brain.

Under the catalysis of these substances, human beings' degraded gills were transformed again and again. The initial research was to allow humans to use the degraded gills again. But the final research results were rejected by the headquarters, and they had to turn to another research. That is to develop the potential of the human body so that humans can automatically electrolyze oxygen in seawater for their own use, and some progress has been made.

The principle is related to the research on electric eels, which allows the human skin tissue to generate electrical energy. After the water is absorbed from the skin, it is ionized and decomposed into oxygen and hydrogen. The oxygen is absorbed by the alienated skin and enters the human circulation system for human metabolism. The ionized excess oxygen and hydrogen are directly expelled from the body surface.

Seeing that Liu Qian was very interested in this research, Wei Liang's assistant Sunina focused on the progress of this project. At present, the underwater laboratory has successfully developed several tubes of finished medicine. After injection, the skin of some experimental subjects can mutate and gain the ability to breathe through the underwater skin. However, the success rate is very low, only about one-twentieth.

Although increasing the injection dose can increase the success rate, after increasing the dose, the mortality rate of the test subject will also greatly increase. In the case of two injections at one time, the test subject will suffer almost 100% mental disorder even if he does not die.

In order to increase the success rate, they need more experimental samples to further deepen their research until they can produce a medicine with a success rate of at least 50% to meet the company's requirements.

"In other words, after injecting your medicine, two gills will not grow on the neck, but the skin will be modified to have an additional function of ionized water? What is the appearance of the skin? Will there be any changes?" Liu Gan confirmed to Sunina.

If that was the case, he would be willing to give it a try. Once he succeeded, he wouldn't have to worry about drowning even if he fell into the water. Liugan's alloy hands and feet are now unusually heavy. It is very difficult to swim after falling into the water. He will sink directly to the bottom like a weight. If he cannot breathe underwater, falling into the water will become a serious problem for him. Big shortcoming. (To be continued~^~)
