492. Luo Tiancheng's Dream
Long Ping shook his head and said slowly, "It's difficult, it's difficult!"
"Through rigorous analysis, I basically figured out something."
"Understand what?" Joyner asked.
"For example, these viruses are not one kind, but dozens or more types mixed together! They can be called composite viruses, and when combined with human cells, there will be countless possibilities."
"Composite virus?"
Joyner was shocked. She had never thought that those viruses could have such unpredictable results.
"Yes, phagocytic viruses use human genes as carriers, and they seem to be more sensitive to certain reactions. Moreover, it cannot be said to 'clear' the virus. A more appropriate term... should be to open some kind of
Special 'evolutionary' means neutralize the human side effects caused by the virus and reduce the severe impact on the body. This is my preliminary judgment on this matter."
"Oh my god, is this a virus that can't be removed?"
If this is the case, then even if all the people infected by the "phagocytic cells" are taken to the two floating cities, it will be difficult to avoid the fate of death.
This virus is so overbearing!
Could it be that there is no way these people can be saved and they can only wait to die?
Joyner looked a little tired and said in a trembling voice, "Then you mean that there is no complete treatment method?"
"You can't say that. The key is time and research methods... We don't have enough time, equipment, manpower, you can see it. It's a miracle that the research can progress to the point where it is today."
"Don't we have some unique equipment? Can't we use them for treatment?"
Joyner's face changed several expressions instantly, showing expressions of surprise, shock, and confusion. She actually thought of the "blood therapy" that Su Zhe had demonstrated to her in that underground base.
"No, no... we can't just say it's treatment, that's something that comes later. What I mean is that this complex virus needs a longer time to study, or more abundant samples, maybe in this way we can unravel its origins.
The secret it contains.”
"Time? I'm afraid we don't have that much time!" Joyner's face was cold, and the light of hope in her eyes was gradually fading.
If these people all die, what's the point of rescuing them?
Is it just reducing the number of opponents that the master said?
Long Ping didn't seem to see Joyner's gloomy gaze, and just said to himself, "One thing cannot be ignored. This virus affects the human body very quickly, changing the physiological structure of infected humans, and even affecting human genes.
, is something they can do in a short time. So, after thorough research, these people may..."
"Will they die?"
"No, not necessarily! It has something to do with everyone's physique and resistance. I mean, they may experience the pain of changes, but they may not necessarily die."
The pain of change?
Could it be that what Long Ping was referring to was the blood food that the master mentioned before turning into an alien creature?
"Well...that's it."
Joyner fell silent for a moment. She was trying to save these people, but the facts before her made her speechless.
After a while, she finally raised her head.
"By the way, what do you mean by 'evolution' before?"
Long Ping seemed a little surprised by her question. In his impression, Su Zhe should have said to Joyner without reservation, "Well, I think about the concept of evolution, and these materials... you
It should be familiar, right?”
A trace of confusion flashed across Joyner's cold face, and at the same time her heart thumped, and she blurted out, "Why?"
Long Ping rubbed his hands, shook his head and looked at her, "I think this matter seems to have many similarities with the research on the 'Titan Project'. And, with all due respect, isn't your body the best evidence?"
"What?!"
Joyner was shocked!
She could hardly believe her ears. How could this matter be related to the "Titan Project" of pre-civilization?
And your own body... is the best evidence?
"I analyzed the research results left by Dr. Su Zhe and found that these viruses have some similarities with the data used in the Titan Project. The results obtained after the analysis are very similar. Dr. Su has not explained the reasons. But you
You know, after all, I have participated in similar research, so I can still see some clues."
"But wait a minute! He did tell me these things before, but why did he..."
Joyner choked up mid-sentence. She seemed to sense something strange, but no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't figure out what the connection was.
Long Ping pursed his lips and motioned for Joyner to follow.
Then, the two of them walked towards the back of the research room.
Along the way, Long Ping explained to Joyner and expressed his views on the matter.
"These viruses mutate very quickly, so fast that we have no time to analyze them. Before we can isolate the characteristics of each virus and understand its origin, they will eat up most of the human cells and produce new ones.
The mutation, I guess they can’t wait for a change of taste.”
"Change the flavor? What does this mean?" Joyner asked in confusion.
"This is just my speculation. They target the recessive genes of living organisms, especially human genes, so they are called 'phage cells'. According to my analysis, they may have existed in more than just
The human body is one of the hosts of human knowledge. That’s why I call it ‘changing tastes’.”
"This is the first time I've heard this statement."
"Not only that, I also found some data at the research center, which shows that their activity energy is amazing. Moreover, the genes of these viruses are very old, so old that you can't know the exact time they existed."
"Ancient genes?" Joyner repeated silently.
"If I guess correctly, these viruses are not native to our earth. At least after comparing the genetic data of various living creatures, I did not find any living things that have similar computational components to them. All kinds of data are
This is confirmed.”
"In other words, they have been lurking for a long time, and their origin cannot be explained. I guess, maybe they are alien biological weapons that have traveled across vast distances and for countless centuries to destroy the civilization of any intelligent race."
Long Ping pushed up his glasses and said seriously.
When Joyna heard Long Ping's words, her expression instantly turned to stone, and her heart beat wildly, roaring in her chest.
Exactly the same!
This was so consistent with her inner feelings, it was a biological weapon!
Yes, that's the hidden meaning. For some reason, she has been avoiding this word in her heart.
As early as when Su Zhe was explaining the origin of "phagocytic cells", she felt that there seemed to be some key issue hidden in Su Zhe's hesitant words.
But Su Zhe cleverly used professional terms and some words that she didn't understand to cover up the past. At that time, she only considered the things she cared about and selectively filtered out other things.
Now, when she heard Long Ping bring up this topic again and say the words "Project Titan", Joyner felt that the long-buried questions in her heart suddenly came to her mind again.
"What else? Do you think there is anything unusual?" Joynana asked.
Long Ping shook his head, stopped, held his glasses in his hands, and sighed, "I think we have just obtained some reliable material, data about the basis of this virus. The compound virus is just some kind of inducement, inducement
Human bodies and genes undergo changes. In fact, the seeds of these mutations have long been buried deep in human genes."
Joyner thought for a while, but still hoped that Long Ping could explain it more thoroughly.
For Long Ping, it was very straightforward to say this, but Joyner still couldn't understand it.
“In previous eras, we have organized all known scientific knowledge into a whole, but on the other hand, relying solely on one person’s mind, we want to unify ideas beyond a small professional field.
It's almost impossible."
"So, this...only some of us dare to start synthesizing facts and theories, bringing together knowledge from various disciplines, albeit with second-hand and incomplete knowledge - and at a risk
The risk of self-fooling…”
Joyner immediately expressed her understanding that whenever a subject makes a breakthrough, other subdivided professional fields will benefit from it, and even new majors will be born.
This progress of civilization stopped hundreds of years ago, and the current era has even returned to the level of the Middle Ages.
But fortunately, the remaining sparks of civilization have been found, and these survivors of the former civilization still have a clear understanding, which means that it is possible to return to the civilization.
But Long Ping Luo Liba said so much, what does it have to do with what he said before, the seeds buried deep in human genes?
"You mean you can't give me an answer using your professional knowledge?"
"Yes, that's it. You know, my field is in botany, and I have only dabbled in other sciences. The real authority is Dr. Su. His research field is too broad, and I have never seen anyone like him.
Obsessed researcher."
"Oh, by the way, there is also a master who is difficult for me to understand. How should I put it, he is so amazing, and is far beyond the comparison of us people." Long Ping added.
"Uh...okay!"
Joyner finally gave up. She realized that she had to ask Su Zhe himself about some things. Long Ping seemed unable to give a more conclusive answer.
Along the way, Long Ping also mentioned that biological works on the origin of life describe the difficulties in constructing a unified knowledge picture.
Joyna couldn't understand these things at all, but Long Ping kept talking and she just nodded silently.
He told Joyner that civilization has developed to a certain stage and has overturned almost all cognitive and scientific problems in the past thousands of years.
