Desolate Star Gu Doctor [Interstellar]

Speaking of which, this discovery really requires a Gu master like Xia Dongyi.

Since Steck made the relevant report, the biological research center of the military department has started to study the way that the Zerg cannibalize each other to produce queens.

After the artificial stimulation, the soldier insects did kill and devour each other as they expected, and the last one survived, after inspection, it did become a queen with the ability to reproduce.

But subsequent research stalled.They repeated many experiments, and even sliced ​​the "winners" of each experiment according to the evolution process, and observed their cells.

However, instead of seeing these cells change rapidly, the gene strands recombine and eventually the chromosomes double, forming the hermaphroditic XXO gene strand. (Note)

This change surprised the scientists who studied it.They tried to explain this phenomenon with various theories, such as devouring the same kind to obtain enough energy to produce physiological "metamorphosis", creating the illusion that the race is on the verge of extinction by devouring other similar species, and promoting physiological metamorphosis, etc.However, according to these theories, injecting huge energy into the body of a single Zerg, or allowing a Zerg to witness the death of all its own kind without allowing it to participate in the "gluttonous feast" of devouring its own kind... As a result, every experiment ended in failure.

Failure again and again makes everyone discouraged.As the master of the research center, Wang Long sighed at last, and announced to wait for Xia Dongyi, the Gu master, to come.

Then Xia Dongyi came to Baige City, the capital of Silver Willow Star, under Steke's protection, and stood in front of them.

Although Wang Long had already received Xia Dongyi's information, when he saw the real person, he couldn't help but be surprised at how young and immature he was.He couldn't help muttering in his heart, is such a small guy really the one who was rumored to be miraculous by the people in the military department?

Wang Long couldn't help thinking of a secret conversation he had with an old classmate half a year ago.This old classmate graduated from the same medical school as him, and was sent to Elfei Planet about a year ago to treat Xia Dongyi's mother.But because Xia's mother missed the opportunity for treatment, even though this old classmate has excellent medical skills, he can only make a final diagnosis report that is hopeless.

Wang Long is well aware of the level of this old classmate. He dare not say he is one of the best in the entire human alliance, but he is definitely at the top level.Even he can only do nothing to help patients, it can be said that no one can be brought back to life, at least not on Elfy, a remote planet with backward medical level.

However, Xia Dongyi's mother was rescued and came back. The hospital had given up treatment and only went to conservative care, and she got better automatically, without any root of the disease remaining!

This is no longer a medical miracle!This is not scientific at all! ! !

At that time, what the old classmate said inside and outside the meaning was that Xia Dongyi's mother was cured by Xia Dongyi's hands and feet.

Why do you say it was tampered with?Because others can't see how he healed.According to the nurse who was taking care of him at the time, the boy brought an ordinary purple pottery pot into the ward.Then he drove everyone out, closed the doors and windows and drew the curtains. In short, he behaved weirdly and mysteriously to prevent others from peeping.

But no matter what he did, it was tantamount to the ability to bring the dead back to life. Which doctor wouldn't be tempted, eager to learn this technique?

It's a pity that Xia Dongyi was guarded to death by the military department, and they couldn't get close at all.

Wang Long became much more sensitive to Xia Dongyi's information because he had heard such admiring and envious descriptions from his old classmates.Until now, the deity stood in front of him, with the childishness and embarrassment of a boy in his eyes, and Wang Long couldn't compare the real person with the mysterious figure in the rumor for a while.

It wasn't until Steck introduced Xia Dongyi's name to him that Wang Long suddenly came back to his senses, and praised: "It's really a boy who makes a hero."

The young man looked indifferent, but he seemed really shy. When he heard such a compliment from him, he was a little dazed. He smiled a little embarrassedly, and replied, "I hope Director Wang will take care of you in the future."

Such a sentence made Wang Long put away his feelings about the young age of the other party, and felt that this child was still a bit bold, and he was worthy of being the mysterious boy who made the army regain its decline on the battlefield.

Wang Long corrected his attitude immediately, and no longer regarded Xia Dongyi as a child who needed to be taken care of, but put him in the position of an equal cooperation partner.

Xia Dongyi studied clinical medicine at school, and he is also a top student who has skipped N-levels.Under the leadership of Wang Long, he walked into the laboratory of the biological research center, and soon became proficient, and his figure shuttled back and forth in various experimental fields.

Xia Dongyi is indifferent and doesn't like to have in-depth interactions with people, but he won't give people a sharp sting.He is quite gentle in dealing with people, although he can't get along well with the researchers in the research center, he gets along fairly well.

Seeing him like this, Wang Long felt relieved, and turned all his energy to the Zerg.

Xia Dongyi is different from the researchers in the research center. His knowledge in biomedicine and other fields is definitely not as good as these experts, but he has a solid foundation in school.And he knew that what he wanted to study was the relationship between Zerg and Gu, so he was prepared before coming.

From the very beginning, Wang Long organized the targeted experiments done by the research center and those theories that had been proved to be incorrect into materials, and passed them on to Xia Dongyi.After Xia Dong looked at them one by one, he didn't respond to Wang Long.Instead, he ran to the freezer by himself, took out the sliced ​​tissue of the Zerg and put it under a microscope for careful observation.

After almost half a month of research and observation, Xia Dongyi confirmed what Wang Long had given him: the process of a soldier worm turning into a queen is just like a young bee being fed royal jelly and turning into a queen bee.

It's just that their "royal jelly" is the flesh and blood of the same family!

In the information report given by Wang Long, it is very clear that the research institutes have conducted research on various parts of the soldiers and insects' bodies, but they have not found the reason why their corpses can make the last survivors metamorphose into hermaphrodites.

Of course they couldn't find it!

Because the reason why soldiers and insects become queens is not their flesh and blood at all!

At first, Xia Dongyi didn't notice it, but his intuition as a Gu master still allowed him to notice the difference in the cells of the soldiers and insects during the transformation process.

The difference does not lie in the strange changes in the cells themselves, but in the fact that as soon as the slices of these cells are placed under the microscope, the lens of the originally clean and bright microscope becomes dim.

"It seems that there is a layer of gray fog covering the lenses." After hearing Xia Dongyi's reminder, a researcher pressed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "At first I thought my glasses were dirty. After that, he paused, and then said: "But this kind of situation only happens occasionally. And it's hard to catch, sometimes you can see it in a blink of an eye, and then it disappears in a blink of an eye, as if your eyes are tired Hallucinations. So I didn't care."

When Xia Dong heard the words, he looked at the others.Most of them showed blank expressions, saying that they had never experienced such a situation.Only four people said they had seen it, as did the researchers who spoke.

The five people were only able to see this layer of foggy gray air occasionally. Xia Dongyi could see it almost every time he checked the slices. The difference was only the thickness of the fog.

This layer of "fog" is something Xia Dongyi is very familiar with as a Gu master, it is a layer of miasma.

Most people think that Gu is produced from poison, but it is not.Gu is actually a collection of miasma, which is the materialization of the miasma formed by the resentment and hatred before death, so the refined Gu insects are often far from their original appearance, or even completely invisible. look like.Because it is transformed by resentment, Gu has the characteristics of a half-spirit, and powerful Gu insects can even shuttle between yin and yang.

As the saying goes, miasma produces poison, and poison persists for a long time.The more poisonous the thing, the more powerful the miasma it produces.Therefore, scorpions, snakes, geckos, centipedes, and toads are the five kinds of poisons that Gu masters like most to refine Gu, and the Gu insects refined from them are particularly powerful.

Miasma is colorless and invisible. Except for those who are particularly sensitive to spirit bodies, it is difficult to detect its existence. This is why only a few people in the research institute have noticed its existence.

And Xia Dongyi is a Gu master, no one understands miasma better than him!

Now, Xia Dongyi is almost certain that Zerg is a type of Gu.As for why there is a phenomenon of Gu within Gu, it is another mystery.

Seeing through the essence of the Zerg, Xia Dongyi couldn't help but get excited.As a Gu master, seeing a new type of Gu, it's hard not to be moved.What's more, Zerg is still such a powerful "Gu".

Not to mention the "Gu within a Gu" situation that even he couldn't explain!Thinking of the beetle worms that came from Steck's body when he was a child, these small worms that parasitized on the Zerg's body and were used by the Zerg as an infectious virus, Xia Dongyi couldn't help licking his lips, driven by a greedy desire He hastened to solve the riddle.He can predict that once he masters the technique of breeding different Gu in the Zerg, his ability to refine Gu will definitely increase.

Xia Dongyi couldn't help but apply to Wang Long, wanting to see the living queen.

Knowing that Xia Dongyi must have discovered something, Wang Long agreed to his application.He originally thought that Xia Dongyi was just standing outside the room where the worm queen was held.Who knew that when he led someone in, Xia Dongyi actually wanted to release the prisoner from the cage made of special materials, and have a close contact with him! ! !

This frightened Wang Long.Although the queens imprisoned here are all samples obtained by the research center through experiments, it can be said that they were born in the laboratory of the research laboratory.But there is no such thing as domesticated and wild Zerg stuff. Didn't you see these artificially bred queens who were locked up, and as soon as they saw them coming in, they immediately rushed towards them drooling excitedly?If it weren't for the strong isolation glass wall, they would have been dismembered and devoured by these monsters on the spot!

Such a dangerous thing, Wang Long would not agree to let Xia Dongyi do such a dangerous thing even though his brain was kicked by a donkey, even though he had never seen an ancient earth creature-donkey!

Xia Dongyi had already expected Wang Long's refusal.He did not ask Wang Lung at once.Instead, he communicated with the little golden dragon on his back with the voice of his heart.After getting a positive reply from the other party, Xia Dongyi said to Wang Long: "It's okay, Director Wang, don't worry, I won't take the risk to die in vain."

The author has something to say: Note: "The XXO gene chain that forms hermaphrodites.": The biology is not good, so I checked Baidu, and only found that the chromosome of a nematode hermaphrodite is XX, and the pure male is XO.But I always felt weird, so I combined the XXY of intersex people and wrote the gene of the androgynous queen as XXO.Anyway, there is no such creature, right~
