"In any case, it is absolutely amazing to be able to successfully resurrect extinct creatures like dinosaurs. It's just that the images of these dinosaurs are far from our previous imagination."

Hu Shucheng looked at the picture of the resurrected dinosaur modeling and expressed his thoughts.

"Yes, Lao Hu, not only you, we also feel very incredible after seeing the images of these dinosaurs. These are not dragons, they are more like a group of big birds. But birds are the evolution of dinosaurs. , they look alike, which is understandable."

Now, Xu You has basically confirmed that the real dinosaur is very different from the dinosaur image people imagined, but this has yet to be resurrected.

At this time, Hu Shucheng seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and leaned over to Xu You's side, and asked in a low voice:

"Old Xu, resurrecting extinct creatures like dinosaurs shouldn't be the ultimate goal of your research on Martian cells, right?"

Xu You was taken aback when he heard Hu Shucheng's words, because Hu Shucheng did speak to Xu You's heart.

In order to study Martian cells, Xu You spent a lot of time and energy, and even stayed in low-earth orbit alone for a long time. If these works are only for the resurrection of some extinct creatures, Hu Shucheng feels that this is not the case. It doesn't conform to Xu You's usual style of doing things.

Although this is already a milestone for the Blue Star biological world, at the moment when the Proxima Centauri civilization is very likely to invade the Blue Star civilization, Xu You puts the main energy on this, obviously It's an unreasonable thing.

"Old Hu, as you said, it is indeed not my sole purpose to bring these extinct creatures back to life. To be honest, I hope to use this process to better understand the nature of biology. When the time is right, modify human genes."

Hearing Xu You's words, Hu Shucheng was shocked.

"Modify... human genes? Old Xu, you're not kidding, are you?"

Hu Shucheng didn't know what kind of medicine Xu You sold in his gourd, and he thought of planning such a terrible thing.

"Of course I'm not kidding. This is one of the things I've been planning for a long time. Of course, this is not for any ulterior or horrific purpose, but for the continuation of human civilization in an emergency. .”

Hearing what Xu You said, Hu Shucheng finally felt a little relieved.

"Well, I knew, Old Xu, that you wouldn't plan anything randomly. But, Old Xu, even if it's for the continuation of human civilization if necessary, wouldn't the risk of this plan be too great? a little?"

Hu Shucheng felt that no matter how you put it, this is a big event that changes human genes, and this is no joke.

Even some genetically modified foods are suspected by people, let alone change human genes.

"Old Hu, you are right about this point. It is indeed very risky to rashly change human genes. But you can rest assured that I will never It’s easy to implement this plan. But if you don’t implement it, it doesn’t mean you don’t think about it. When it’s really a last resort, it’s too late to plan this matter.”

Since Hu Shucheng asked about this topic, Xu You planned to tell Hu Shucheng some more inside information.

"Old Hu, if it is really time for the Proxima Centauri civilization to arrive at the Blue Star, and the Blue Star Civilization loses the ability to resist it, then changing human genes and making humans stronger will be the last option. One. If human beings can be as tenacious as Martian cells, even the powerful Proxima Centauri civilization will not be able to completely destroy human beings."

Martian cells have not become extinct for so many years, and they still exist on Mars in a dormant state, which is enough to prove the strong resilience and vitality of this creature.

"Old Xu, can human beings...can also use a structure that looks like a cell shell to seal their bodies forever like Martian cells?"

"Now I'm not sure what the specific possibility is, but at least I can keep this possibility. By the way, I have actually completed the genetic modification. If necessary, I can try to make my body stimulate With such ability..."

Hearing that Xu You had completed the genetic modification procedure, Hu Shucheng was completely unexpected.

"Did you start this plan when you decided to use your own body to make antibodies?"

"To be precise, it was before that. It's just that when your situation gradually deteriorates, let me let some cells unlock these genes in advance. Of course, this unlocking degree is relatively limited, except in my body, It doesn't make any difference in my traits other than having some antibodies."

In the end, Hu Shucheng could only accept this reality. For Xu You's various decisions, Hu Shucheng did not have any ability to intervene. Being able to know some inside stories has already allowed Hu Shucheng to obtain more information than others.

"In fact, using Mars cells to change human genes, there are many directions that can be expected. For example, let humans, like Mars cells, survive in a dormant state for a long time when they feel a crisis, and cannot be destroyed by any weapon." Destroy this layer of protective structure. Or, this genetic change can activate some of the locked abilities of humans, allowing humans to become superpowers, and use this ability to fight against the civilization of Proxima Centauri."

Although Xu You is a scientific researcher, Xu You does not think that powerful technology will definitely be more powerful than evolved creatures.

Before he has a clear understanding of these forces, Xu You must keep as many possibilities as possible.

"Evolving superpowers? This is a very interesting direction."

After hearing so much from Xu You, Hu Shucheng also began to have some interest in this project.

"Yes, it is precisely because there are so many things to look forward to that I am willing to put so much energy into it. Once the safety of this plan can be guaranteed, there will be more possibilities for the future of human civilization."

Xu You even felt that the various transformations made by the X-1 super quantum did not really change him at the genetic level, but only maximized Xu You's potential on the basis of Xu You's existing abilities.
