Zerg evolution road

Chapter 75 Environmentally Forced Genetic Combination Act

The scheme of the environment-forced gene combination method is very simple. It just allows the hatching pool to adapt to various environments, and then forms genes that can resist this environment through gene combination.

If this plan works, then the Zerg will take another great step forward.

What is this step called?The third industrial revolution?No, no, Zhang Fan himself has forgotten how many great achievements he has made. Now that the horoscope has not been written off, let's let it go first. This release will put it in the back of his mind forever.

Then the experiment began. The ores that the worker bees found were not bad, and there was no strong radiation effect.

Don't ask why it can be detected without equipment, this seems to be the innate ability of the Zerg, Zhang Fan can know the radiation content through the fluctuation of this perception.

He speculates that this may be an ore containing a small amount of uranium metal, but what exactly is yet to be discovered.

The worker bees couldn't support the radiation ores and fell to the ground. Although the radiation is relatively low, it will still cause great damage to the body organs after a long time.

These worker bees have completed their mission and are buried under the creep forever, dying wherever they were born.

The ore has entered the hatching pool, and Zhang Fan is observing it.

Radiation is gradually destroying the tissues and organs in the hatching pool, and a large number of neuron cells begin to die.

Accidentally, Zhang Fan discovered a terrible cell, a cancer cell.

A cancer cell is a mutated cell.It is the source of cancer. Cancer cells are different from normal cells. They have three characteristics: infinite proliferation, transformation and easy transfer. They can infinitely proliferate and destroy normal cell tissues.

This kind of cells is extremely destructive to the Zerg's body, but Zhang Fan likes them very much. This kind of cell solves the problem of Zerg's limb regeneration.

For example, as long as a springtail does not die in battle and breaks any organ or joint in the body, it can be regenerated through the infinite proliferation ability of cancer cells.

Even if it is broken in two, as long as it is not dead, it can be reborn.

It's just that the shape of the cancer cells is not fixed, they flow to any corner of the incubation tank like flowing water.

In the end, the incubation pool was destroyed by cancer cells. Although it was destroyed, the genetic map of cancer cells has been preserved.

Next, in the experiment, cancer cells were only one of them. What Zhang Fan wanted was to obtain some anti-radiation genes. Once successful, it would prove that the environmental forced gene combination method was correct.

Waiting and waiting, waiting for a long time, but only cancer cells appeared, and these cancer cells ravaged the hatching pools.

Zhang Fan could only clear them all.

"Could it be the wrong direction? No reason?" Zhang Fan was thinking seriously.

Adam said at this time: "Master, maybe the ability of radiation is too high-end, how about we try to conduct some experiments in a normal way?"

Zhang Fan: "You mean to use seawater, or special environments such as high temperature?"

Adam: "Master, you are right, we cannot control the intensity of the radiation, but we can control the intensity of the environment."

Zhang Fan thought for a while and said, "Well, let's do this. First extract some seawater for salt resistance tests, and then build an incubation pool underground. The closer to the magma, the better."

Adam: "Master, Adam will make arrangements now."

Arriving at the seaside, this ocean is the place Zhang Fan has always wanted to conquer, but has never made a move.

It is not a living place like the mainland, but a place where life is born. Zhang Fan guessed that there must be more terrifying creatures in this endless ocean than on land.

The way of extracting seawater is very primitive, allowing worker bees to drink seawater into their stomachs by drinking water.

Anyone with a little common sense knows that seawater cannot be directly drunk, it will have an osmotic reaction with the body, and the low-concentration water will permeate to the high-concentration place. died of dehydration.

Doesn't it mean that cancer cells can regenerate?There may be some misunderstanding here. Cancer cell regeneration is not omnipotent. It is also a living thing, and its body also contains water. Once an osmotic reaction occurs, it will still die. same gene.

Zhang Fan was a little depressed. He didn't expect that such a simple process of taking sea water would trouble Zhang Fan. The original Life Lake or Yao Lake was not without salt, but the concentration of sea water was not as high.

Adam was a little overwhelmed, this method was thought up by him, and he waited for Zhang Fan's punishment with some trepidation.

"It's not your fault, it's just that you haven't been in contact with it before. You must know that we are not invincible. Adam, you go and ask the worker bees to build some containers. We use containers to hold sea water." Zhang Fan said very gently.

When Adam heard what Zhang Fan said, he felt relieved, and then asked the worker bees to dig stones.

The stone is like a bowl, with a high perimeter and a concave center. The worker bees struggled to transport the stone bowl to the seashore, and it took a lot of effort to transport the seawater back to the hatching pond.

The seawater was poured into the hatching tank, and the seawater instantly produced an osmotic reaction with the cells in it.

Just like when the ore was put in at that time, a large number of cells died, and the death rate was much higher than that of radiation.

Zhang Fan waited, waiting for the miracle of life.

Sure enough, a pair of neural clouds released signals like crazy, and weak currents flowed from one end to the other.

Purines begin to combine under this signal, and the combination is very fast, and they are competing with seawater for the right to survive.

Regardless of any life, they all want to survive. All creatures are afraid of death, and the Zerg is no exception.

Life is not easy in this life, you have to die like this without knowing it, and you have to live meaningfully.

After talking so much nonsense, the salt resistance gene finally appeared in front of Zhang Fan.

It’s just that the hatching pool is abolished again. Every time this kind of experiment is done, the hatching pool will be abolished. This waste of resources is still a bit big.

Adam took over a gene, and then analyzed and optimized it. After a while, another gene was added to the body of the larva.

Generally speaking, the environmental forced gene combination method is successful, because the incubation pool near the underground magma has also synthesized the heat resistance gene, but it still cannot enter the magma. The environment is too extreme and the cells cannot bear it at all.

After solving this crucial problem, Zhang Fan let out a long sigh of relief, and the next step is to restore the glory of the Zerg race.

At this time, the northern border underwent earth-shaking changes under the attack of ice and snow monsters.
