This is how black technology should be used

Chapter 194 Super Soldier Project
Many countries have thought about super fighters who can be used as ten or even one hundred, and some countries have put it into practice, and really want to get such a fighter.

For example, in the current Fanxing, their powered exoskeleton armor has entered the actual combat stage very smoothly, so they have become the first country in the world to have "super soldiers", and they still have a large number of them.

In fact, at the earliest time, because the accumulation of science and technology was not enough, the first thing people thought of was not to use equipment, but to directly apply the technology of human body enhancement to cultivate super soldiers.

As early as more than 2000 years ago, human beings began to try to improve the quality of population through the method of "youyou combination".

In the middle of the 19th century, Darwin's theory of evolution and Mendel's law of heredity appeared, which gradually opened the door to gene technology from the perspective of systematic science.

During the World War more than 80 years ago, the brutal war caused huge casualties. While developing advanced weapons, each participating country was also trying to improve the individual combat effectiveness of its soldiers.

This has triggered research in the field of genetic modification in various countries, hoping to directly create "superhuman warriors" with characteristics beyond ordinary people from the source.

At that time, the Freedom Federation and the Weimar Empire were the two countries with the most advanced science and technology during the war, and their research in the field of genes was also ahead of all participating countries.

In fact, the so-called "eugenics movement" started in the Free Federation before the war, because the residents, mainly Western Europeans, worried that their "good population genes" would be diluted by the "inferior genes" of other "lower race" immigrants. assimilation.

At that time, it still belonged to the discrimination and contradictions among countries and races.

By the time the war broke out, more than 30 states in the federation had promulgated the "eugenics bill", which directly led to the forced sterilization of tens of thousands of people with genetic defects or criminal acts.

In the middle of the war, the Federation announced that research in the field of genes had achieved a lot of results. Scientists believed that some gene mutations could allow the human body to have traits beyond ordinary people, such as having stronger bones and immunity to pain.

But when the secrets were declassified after the war, people discovered that it was just a way for soldiers to take stimulant drugs. Once they were high, they would naturally not know the pain.

But after the excitement disappeared...it got worse.

Not only the scars left by the battle, the drugs themselves are also very harmful.

However, although the Freedom Federation was outrageous, the Weimar Empire at that time was even more outrageous. Their situation in the field of human genetic research was more complicated and mysterious.

At that time, the Weimar Empire was regarded as the most racist country among the participating countries, and it regarded itself as a "superior nation".

They carried out a plan called "The Source of Life", which allowed military elites to combine with blond and blue-eyed native women to produce excellent offspring.

And also went to various places with magical legends to investigate and research, wanting to dig out the secrets of magical legends to enhance the winning rate of the Weimar Empire.

The stories that followed became more fantasy and exaggerated. According to sources, they were still looking for the legendary "Axis of the Earth" to help the Empire create an "Undead Legion".

Then everyone knew the result. They failed and probably found nothing.

But at that time, there was no way, the accumulation of technology was not enough, and the magical legend was just a legend, and it didn't work at all.

However, countries did not give up their plans to train super soldiers, they just felt that the previous plans were too whimsical, so they reduced their goals.

It is still to strengthen the human body, but instead of that outrageous super soldier, it is just to enhance the continuous combat ability of individual soldiers.

Twenty years ago, the Office of Defense Science under the Advanced Research Agency of the Free Federation launched the iconic "Metabolic Superior Soldiers" program, intending to use drugs and other methods to modify the metabolism of soldiers, reduce the needs of soldiers for food and sleep, and make them have The ability to control body pain and reduce bleeding from wounds.

Enhance stamina, tolerance to extreme environments, senses, and overall physical fitness without appreciable growth in size.

In research and development, it is one of the basic elements to effectively eliminate the fatigue of soldiers caused by huge pressure.

Fatigue can cause sluggishness of reaction and loss of concentration, which can be a great danger on the battlefield.

Usually people use caffeine or other chemical stimulants to fight fatigue. For example, the Federal Army Air Medical Research Laboratory has developed a drug called "Modafinil".

After taking the drug, the helicopter pilot was able to fly continuously for 40 hours without accidents.

People know that airplane pilots are so stressed that they can't fly a plane for a long time, but after taking that drug, they can do it.

However, such methods are only effective in some cases, and long-term use also has the risk of harming the human body.

Later, the Federation developed a new device, which mainly transmits electric current to the vagus nerve through the skin of the neck to stimulate brain activity and eliminate human fatigue.

Commonly known as "electrotherapy"!
The vagus nerve is the tenth pair of cranial nerves. It is the longest and most widely distributed pair of cranial nerves. It contains four fiber components: somatosensory fibers, visceral sensory fibers, body motor fibers, and visceral motor fibers.

It also belongs to the parasympathetic nervous system, which antagonistically adjusts the heart rate, respiration, gland secretion and blood flow distribution of important organs such as liver and adrenal gland with the sympathetic nervous system.

As one of 12 cranial nerves, the vagus nerve runs from the brainstem to the abdomen and passes through various organs including the heart, esophagus and lungs. It also determines a person's mood in many ways.

Stimulating the vagus nerve with electricity has previously been shown to improve memory and learning and to treat certain diseases.

For example, the treatment of congestive heart failure and the treatment of acute migraine by stimulating the vagus nerve.

This approach was effective, well tolerated, and safe.

In order to study whether this method is effective in the military, the Federal Air Force recruited a group of 40 military volunteers to conduct a cooperative experiment with the research project team.

Initial experiments showed that these volunteers took a total of 34 recordings during the 9-hour non-sleep period, and the results showed that the soldiers who received the electrical stimulation nerve test... were very energetic!
They can maintain a more awake state of consciousness during up to 34 hours of sleeplessness, and their reaction speed and thinking ability are significantly improved compared with the normal state. This is the result of a controlled experiment.

After the test, the soldiers who received the electrical stimulation of the nerves generally reported that they felt less fatigued, more excited, and more focused during the experiment, and the stimulation effect reached its peak about 12 hours after the start of the test.

The fighter pilots in the test group are even more powerful. They can maintain the vigilance and reaction speed that meet the combat requirements for as long as 19 hours. Even the research team thinks this is an unexpected achievement!

But no matter how powerful this experiment is, it is not as powerful as using ancient viruses to transform the human body.

When researchers and the military thought they could only use "anti-fatigue fighters", the ancient virus brought back from Antarctica gave them a huge surprise.

I didn't expect the original "super soldier" idea to come true!
And it can be used not only in the military, but also in bald middle-aged people who are not happy with their nightlife, and those in power who are so old that they can't even control their own bodies...
