Chapter 175 Substance
"Brother! Success! Success! After nearly two years of research, we can finally control the radiation of λ substance!"
Four years ago, the metal base on the northern suburbs mine had just been built for a year.
There are two brothers living in a dormitory at the base. The dormitory here is much spacious and has much better living conditions.
In the ordinary dormitory, four people live in a narrow room. This dormitory is not only spacious, but also has only two people, and there is also a separate bathroom and living room.
This is all thanks to my younger brother. Xue Xiaowei is a top student and a genius in physics and chemistry. He has obtained more certificates from childhood to adulthood than his older brother Xue Dawei has read.
Two years ago, my brother Xue Dawei came to work in the mine for the tuition for his younger brother to study abroad. Because the salary here is high, he can earn money that no one else can earn.
But who would have thought that Xue Xiaowei insisted on following him, and said that the two brothers made money faster, and he could go abroad to study two years later. At that time, the money earned by the two brothers was enough.
As soon as he arrived at the mine, Xue Xiaowei was valued by the Cha family and went directly to the ore research and experimental department. His treatment was several times better than that of ordinary people in all aspects.
Xue Dawei was just an ordinary person, but fortunately, he was strong and entered the position of guarding the mine. Later, because of his bravery and outstanding performance, the metal base was built a year later, and he was transferred back to the base and became a member of the base guard team.
Xue Xiaowei works in the base research laboratory, Xue Dawei works in the base guard team, and the base leaders also adapted to let Xue Dawei live in a better dormitory with his younger brother.
In this way, the two brothers can be together often. Every day when they return to the dormitory, their younger brother Xue Xiaowei would tell their brother some interesting things they found during the research that day.
Gradually, Xue Dawei also learned why the Cha family wanted to mine here, because the ore in the northern suburbs mine contained an extremely rare metal.
This mysterious and rare metal is one of the important materials for building this base. Just add a little to achieve indestructible hardness.
Moreover, after more in-depth research and experiments, a shocking discovery was made!
In this metal, a substance can be extracted, named λ substance.
This λ substance has strong radioactive radiation. After testing, this radiation is actually stronger than the known gamma ray radiation, which is terrifying!
This shocking discovery first caused panic, because everyone knows how great damage radioactive radiation can cause to the human body.
Even not just humans, radioactive radiation is a fatal threat to all organic life!
The rays produced by radioactive radiation have extreme
With strong penetration ability, it can enter the inside of organic living organisms and ionize with cells.
Ions produced by ionization can erode complex organic molecules, such as proteins, nucleic acids and enzymes, which are the main components of living cell tissue.
Once they are destroyed, it will cause the normal chemical process of organic living organisms to be disturbed and then cause the cells to die quickly!
Even radioactive radiation can affect the genes of living organisms, but this effect is often bad.
However, when the Cha family learned about this situation, they were not surprised but happy. They immediately blocked the news and increased their investment, and also demanded that the extraction and research of λ substances be accelerated.
At that time, many researchers like Xue Xiaowei opposed it at first because they knew the horror of this λ substance best.
Matter of λ can be made into a super weapon that is 100 times more terrifying than an atomic bomb! And it is a silent super weapon!
If this weapon is developed and truly used in war, then it is probably not far from the end of the world.
Once this weapon is used, even in a trace amount, the radiation rays generated by this λ substance can take away millions or even tens of millions of lives!
However, later, the Cha family explained that extracting λ substances was intended to study in the direction of transforming human genes, and was an experimental research that was determined to treat human diseases and could benefit humans.
Xue Xiaowei and the others were loose because they also had a guess that if the radiation of λ substance could be controlled well, it might be able to transform human genes and treat diseases.
If they can succeed, then they will become one of the people who have made the greatest contribution to mankind in this century, which will be a great feat!
Therefore, the extraction and research experiment of λ substance continued like this and was secretly carried out in this metal base.
It took two years to discover λ substances from ore metals to study the radiation radiation of λ substances.
In theory, this experiment has reached a very high level. As long as the practical experiment is successful, they will really succeed!
That's why Xue Xiaowei was so happy today. As soon as he returned to the dormitory, he reported such good news to his brother Xue Dawei.
"Is that so Xiaowei! You are so great! It's really great. The money we have made in the past two years has been enough. Your experiment is successful. The Cha family will definitely have a large reward. The cost of studying abroad is absolutely enough. We can go home!"
Xue Dawei was also very happy. His younger brother's research will be successful soon, which means they will be able to go home soon.
"Yes, brother, and do you know that our research will benefit mankind in future generations! Even because of our research, the world will enter a new era!"
Xue Xiaowei was very excited, and he was even happier than winning five million.
But Xue Dawei didn't understand these things. He only cared about two things. One was to make enough money and the expense of being able to study abroad by his younger brother, and the other was to go home and stay in this metal shell all day long. He missed his home so much.
"How long will it take to complete this research? I can prepare what we will go home in advance." Xue Dawei asked excitedly.
"Brother, don't worry, you have reached this point, I believe that results will be available soon, and the next research is the most critical time."
"Okay, come on, brother, I believe you!"
One month later.
"The 116th teenage mouse died again. What is the situation? Why can we clearly control the radiation of λ substance, but we still fail repeatedly!"
In the bright and spacious laboratory, Xue Xiaowei and a group of researchers were filled with sad faces. In front of them was a glass box. In the box, a little white mouse was lying motionless with his legs facing the sky.
"Originally, the early situation of this 116th is the most stable. Even the radiation of λ substances killed the cancer cells that originally existed in its body. They were still alive yesterday, so why are you...oh today!"
Failure is indeed a very troublesome thing, especially after seeing hope, but failing repeatedly. The flame of hope is extinguished again and again. This is the most harsh thing.
"Don't be discouraged. Madame Curie used it for two years just to discover radium, and it took nearly four years to refine radium. It took us less than half a year to extract λ substances, and it took less than two years to control the radiation of λ substances. Isn't this a miracle?"
Xue Xiaowei stood up and inspires people. Here, he is the most core figure. Faced with such a young genius, everyone believed him.
"The experiment phase has just passed a month, and failure is not terrible. If the previous hundred failures are not, we will do one hundred and once. If the previous thousand failures are not, we will do one thousand and once. I believe that one day, we will do one thousand and once. The radiation rays of λ matter will be perfectly used to make the greatest contribution to the entry of all mankind into a new era!"
After his words fell, people's faces regained their spirits.
Yes, the research they are doing now can change all mankind!
How could I surrender because of such a little difficulty in front of me?
"Okay! Let's continue to experiment!"
Just as the fighting spirit was rekindled in the laboratory, suddenly, a rumbling sound came, and the entire base shaking violently.
Everyone's faces were filled with fear and worry, and Xue Xiaowei rushed out of the laboratory regardless of everything.
That thing is coming out again! Brother, you can’t have anything to do, you must come back again!
Chapter completed!
