Lord of all things that devour the starry sky

Chapter 130 Bloodline

“RR” virus?

Everyone is in a great shock. The things that have brought great changes to the world and also brought great pain are the truths that will come out?

Simon Davis did not answer directly. He pursed his lips and said calmly: “Let me tell you a story.”

His azure pupils looked at the people present.

“Patton Davis, born in 1880, his father was a manor in Germany. Since childhood, his family had good conditions and he naturally received a very good education. During the Second World War, he was already well-known in the empire. Scientists and participate in the research and development of biological and chemical weapons.”

“But in the 1930s, when he was fifty years old, he felt his own aging, and suddenly an idea came up.”

“He wants to deconstruct the essence of life so as to extend his own lifespan.”

“The number of times a cell divides is limited. Once it is exhausted, the cell will undergo apoptosis. This number depends on the length of a structure called’telomere’ on the chromosome in the cell. The longer the telomere, the more times it can divide. many.”

“Of course, external factors are also affected by the external environment. Internal factors, bad life habits or emotions will aggravate this process. For example, prolonged depression will cause the chromosomal telomeres in the body to fall off and accelerate the aging of cells. Make people age prematurely.”

“The limit of the number of divisions of human somatic cells is about 52-60 times.”

“He was thinking, what about’cancer cells’ called immortal cells, how does it break this limit?”

Everyone did not interrupt Simon Davis’s narration, and listened carefully to the story he told.

This person named Patton Davis is probably his ancestor.

Simon said: “This is related to an enzyme called’telomerase’. In normal cells, the activity of telomerase is inhibited, so telomeres usually shorten as the cell divides, but Tumor cells can reactivate the activity of telomerase, so that telomeres can be replenished faster.”

“In this case, tumor cells can proliferate without restriction, achieve’immortality’, and achieve unlimited division.”

“But we are not afraid of telomeres, because we have stem cells. After the death of human cells, stem cells can divide into new tissue cells for replenishment.”

“However, as the human body’s stem cells grow older, the activity and regenerative capacity of the stem cells have changed, and the ability to repair them eventually declines. Cells are damaged, tissues are damaged, and individuals die.”

“After a large number of human experiments, Patton Davis has completed the two major topics of telomere extension and artificially induced stem cells, and finally gene-edited himself.”

Lin Yan’s eyes flickered. 60 times was the limit of human beings before the Nirvana period. Unlike the evolution of Practitioner relying on cultivation, the cell activity of Practitioner is greatly improved, with a higher upper limit, but there is still a limit of own division.

Different from Wen Zhian’s research results for the rebirth of a severed limb, there is also an own upper limit for that kind of severed limb rebirth.

Because of the unlimited proliferation of cells, the result is carcinogenic.

For Practitioner, there will be no longer suffering from this disease, but life span is a very serious matter, especially for “Eat the Stars”. This has been ascending to the Universe rule, and Lin Yan prefers Practitioner’s cells. The consequences of cancer will be more serious.

Patton Davis’s approach may not be what he wants.

“Patton Davis successfully completed the own gene editing and returned to his youth. After the war, he was active on the stage of scholars in the world under other pseudonyms and identities, and conducted discussions and research on cells and genes with many scientists. .”

“This is also the predecessor of the Truth Society.”

“But in the 1980s, not long after his 100th birthday, the well-controlled cells that had been modified by him suddenly became cancerous. This process is irreversible and irrepressible.”

“His’immortality’ plan enters the countdown at this moment!”

“So he remembered what he had encountered when organizing an academic conference in Oceania. There was an earthquake, and he entered a relic of ancient civilization, which is now the ancient civilization relic No. 5.”

“In there, he acquired some knowledge of Universe civilization, and learned that people can become Practitioners through cultivation. They are divided into apprentice level, planet level, star level and universe level. The life span is different, and he has obtained 7 emission meters. Fragrance of white translucent crystals.”

A member of the assembly immediately exclaimed: “Wooden Yajing!”

“Yes, it’s the Muyajing.”

Simon nodded, and many of the congressmen who were present realized that the treasure “Wooden Crystal” in the materials they learned at Ancient Civilization Ruins No. 5 last year actually existed on the earth, but it was taken by Patton Davis before that. gone.

This can also explain why the Ancient Civilization Remains No. 5 was only discovered last year. You must know that they can find almost all the ancient civilization relics on the earth through some special instruments, but the Ancient Civilization Remains No. 5 has been unearthed since the Great Nirvana period. , There is no high-energy reaction in it, so naturally it is useless.

Simon said: “But knowing that cultivation is useless, how can you cultivate?”

“There is only the simplest Five-Heart Xiangtian cultivation method in the ruins, but even now, you have to reach the Practitioner to be able to cultivate. At that time, Paidun had no way at all.”

Patton saw the goal, but there was no way to the goal.

“So his research direction shifted to the wooden crystal, which has a huge energy response, but the method of use is also unknown. Patton conducted experiments on this, and all animals that swallowed the crystal would burst and die.”

“This situation lasted for decades, until 14 years. On the northern coast of Europe, fishermen caught a huge sea snake, which was more than 100 meters long. Patton was always looking for those special animals and bought it. A huge sea snake.”

“He swallowed the hazel crystals for the sea snake. This is the only creature that did not explode directly. This made him feel some hope. The sea snake once reached the bottom of the valley with its vitality, but miraculously successfully awakened after three months. After molting, New scales are grown, and the size has tripled.”

“Patton named it’Yemengjiade.’ But how to realize his self-evolution through Yemengade is also a very important problem. It will take decades, hundreds of years.”

“At that time, Patton was troubled by the pain of cancer, where there is so much time, so he made a crazy decision.”

“He is prepared to rely on the natural laws of natural selection to achieve his goal!”

“He used the R virus influenza at that time as the basis, combined with the gene fragments of Yemengade, and isolated the initial strain of the RR virus.”

“It can be spread through the air without any means of epidemic prevention at all, and it spreads quickly to the world!”

Three nightmarish months.

The population has dropped sharply by 2 billion. Human survivors naturally produce antibodies in their bodies, and their strength, speed, cell activity, and skin toughness have more than doubled!

The improvement of the monsters is even more amazing, thus setting off the era of the great Nirvana.

“In fact, the sea monsters are stronger than the land monsters not just because of the number base. As a sea snake, Yemengade’s genes are more harmonious with the sea monsters.”

In Norse mythology, Yemengade is a huge sea snake that can surround the world, although the body of this monster is not too exaggerated to be able to exist in this myth.

But in a sense, it also “surrounds the world.”

“But everything still doesn’t end here.”

“Patton succeeded in becoming a Practitioner, but the apprentice level does not extend its life.”

“Planet level is very difficult for humans, so far there are less than 60 people, and if he can’t reach Planet level, all his efforts will be in vain.”

“His body is on the verge of collapse, and it is impossible for him to withstand the energy of the wooden crystal to break through this level.”

“After a long period of research and exploration, he still hasn’t found a suitable method.”

“However, he found a problem and thought about it.”

“The Azure Dragon of the East China Sea is a king in adulthood, and the iron armored dragon is a high-level monster lord. There are many monsters in this world, but they all have the problem of racial potential.”

Simon’s eyes are piercing: “Or, it’s ‘blood’!”

“King-level monsters are equivalent to the Planet-level of humans, but some monsters do not have such a threshold. Adults are king-level. This phenomenon extends to humans. Does it mean that humans also have blood?”

“Are there any human beings who can reach the Planet level, Star level, or even the Universe level as an adult?”

Everyone present fell into deep thought.

This is never mentioned in their knowledge of the inheritance of the Universe, but it does exist.

Even the combination of two Practitioners will give birth to children with better talents.

The pedigree is not nonsense.

Lin Yan couldn’t help being a little surprised. Although Patton Davis had a big problem with his approach and was selfish, he was indeed an out-and-out genius.

In the Universe, races such as Barbarian Stars can reach the domain owner even as an adult. The golden horn behemoth that Luo Feng later seized can grow up to the peak of the domain owner naturally, and is the peak bloodline in the universe. .

The pedigree of the people on Earth can only be called infamous in the Universe.

Simon’s voice sounded again.

“So the truth will have a new subject.”

“Superhuman Serum Superhuman Serum.”

“The purpose is to break the barrier of Planet breakthrough through genetic modification of the human body, ascension pedigree.”
