Elf boy Orochimaru

Chapter 8 The Carrier of Elf Genetic Engineering

"Hey, isn't this Kouchimaru?"

Orochimaru was walking in the research institute when a man's voice came to his ears and stopped him in his tracks. Mobile version m..

"Uncle Domon."

Orochimaru turned around and looked at the man in front of him.

This is a young man with a short haircut and a face that looks amiable.

Domeng Xiuda, he is a member of the research institute and the assistant of Dr. Jie Zilan. He is upright, kind, and very caring for children. He often plays with the children after get off work.

"Orochimaru, I haven't seen you for a few days, you have grown a lot!" Domeng smiled and touched Orochimaru's head, "You have become a handsome young man, and all the girls in the town will be fascinated by you!"

"No, Uncle Domon, stop teasing me." Orochimaru responded politely.

He has always been so humble and courteous towards the elders in the town.

Elders are elders after all. Unlike children, they possess knowledge that children do not have. Orochimaru has always respected people with knowledge.

"Ouchimaru, why did you think of coming to the institute today? This is not a place for fun!" Domon said.

"That's it, Uncle Domeng, I have a question to ask you."

Orochimaru took out several photos of the elf virus and handed them to the young man in front of him.

"Do you know what species this is?"

Domeng took the photo, looked at it carefully, and showed a surprised expression: "A microorganism that I have never seen before... This seems to be some kind of unknown virus?"

"You don't know either?" Orochimaru frowned, a little disappointed.

"Ahem, I'm just an assistant. As an elf researcher, you can only have a bachelor's degree qualification certificate at most... Xiaoshemaru, you have to know that there are master's elf graduate students in front of the bachelor's degree, and after the master's degree, there are doctoral elf graduate students, and then There are also postdocs..."

Domeng rambled a lot and rubbed his head in embarrassment. Then he asked: "Xiaoshemaru, where did you get this photo? This is not something ordinary people can find."

"I accidentally discovered it when I was treating Arbor Snake." Orochimaru said half truthfully.

"That's it..." Duomeng thought for a moment, and then said, "Well, I'll take you to see Dr. Jie Zilan. Maybe she knows something about this."

"Okay, thank you." Orochimaru nodded immediately, he was here for this matter.

The two walked through several corridors and up the stairs, and finally came to the door of an office on the second floor.

Walk into the door——

This is a "very crowded" room, filled with a large number of bookshelves, with a desk in between, and a woman over fifty years old sitting behind it.

The woman is wearing a white coat and has short, sleek hair. She is holding a newspaper and reading leisurely over coffee.

Mustard Orchid, Sirona's grandmother, is an elf researcher with a doctoral certificate recognized by the Alliance, and is also the benefactor of this world who adopted Orochimaru and provided him with food and accommodation.

She raised her head when she heard the sound of the door opening, "Domon...um, Orochimaru?"

"Grandma Mustard." Orochimaru greeted politely.

"Domeng." Jie Zilan looked at the assistant dissatisfied, "You can't bring children in the institute."

"Ahem, that's it, doctor, Xiaoshewan has a question and I want to ask you."

A drop of cold sweat broke out on Domeng's forehead, and he quickly explained. After all, the doctor's daily style is very strict, and he may be scolded again.

"Oh?"

Jie Ziran looked at Orochimaru.

Orochimaru nodded, took a step forward, and handed over the virus photo in his hand: "Grandma Jiezilan... No, Dr. Jiezilan, I want to ask, have you ever seen such a species?"

Jie Zilan took the photos, one by one, and looked at the patterns carefully.

"This is a newly discovered unknown virus." Jie Zilan said lightly, "The academic community is still studying this. According to the research results, this virus will appear after the Elf Duel. It seems to be benign and will only Parasitizing elves, the chance of appearing is about 3/65536."

"Is this the only way..."

Orochimaru frowned.

This result did not satisfy him. He also wanted to know more, such as the lifespan, function, how to cultivate the elf virus, and...

"Orochimaru, where did you get this?" Dr. Jie Zilan said suddenly, her hawk-like eyes staring at Orochimaru.

"I discovered it accidentally when I was treating Arbor Snake." Orochimaru still said.

"Why are you interested in this thing?"

"Instinctively good."

"You used the microscope in your home laboratory, right?"

"Yes, because it's good."

"That laboratory is not for children."

"Well, I see."

Orochimaru responded one by one.

He could tell Dr. Jie Zilan that she seemed to be holding him back, but he couldn't tell the truth.

After the elves gradually integrate into human society, due to the wisdom of the elves, a series of problems will naturally arise. Therefore, regarding elf research, the Elf Alliance actually has relevant legal provisions. People who have not obtained a degree certificate cannot conduct any elf research.

Why would Orochimaru be so concerned about this virus, and even go to other people's research institutes to ask questions at the risk of it?

Actually there is a reason.

He had a conjecture a long time ago that there were recessive genes of dragon elves in the body of Arbo snake. Everything from dragon elves could be transplanted into Arbo snake's body through genetic engineering. This idea is very beautiful, but it is very difficult to implement.

why?

As mentioned before, the bodies of elves have very strong immunity, and their cells can eat up most viruses.

As for the so-called genetic engineering, what is needed for gene transplantation?

Copy, transcribe, translate…

This definitely requires a carrier to reverse-transcribe the genes of organisms, and then go through a series of work to make corresponding protein enzymes, which can be injected into other organisms to cause other organisms to mutate. This is the so-called genetic engineering. Normally, humans eat This is how genetically modified foods, such as non-allergenic soybeans, potatoes, etc., come about.

And this so-called carrier is usually executed by a "virus".

However, the known viruses currently discovered in the world will be swallowed up by the elf cells as soon as they come into contact with them, and they will not be able to complete the transcription work at all. This is the difficulty of elf genetic engineering - gene transplantation is almost an "inconvenience" to the elf cells. Possible Missions".

Otherwise, if the genetic engineering of elves was really that simple, then under the research of the elven doctors in the Alliance, the world would have been "full of quasi-gods and worthless mythical beasts."

The new virus discovered by Orochimaru is benign and can successfully transcribe elf cells and copy the next generation based on the genetic information contained in its own nucleic acid - the Abai snake becomes stronger and eats more. It is the result of the successful parasitism of the virus.

So Orochimaru came up with an idea——

He plans to use this type of elven virus to complete his research and make Arbo Snake even more powerful.

Because... Arbo Snake is his elf and his partner. Two years of getting along with him is irreplaceable. He wants to make it stronger than any elf!
