Starting from Zero

The group of sharks that circled us quickly started to take action. One of the smaller white sharks first broke away from the circle surrounding us and swam towards the edge of the dragon girl, while the surrounding audience watched this. Everything began to unconsciously tightened his fist and became tense. [,

It took only two seconds for the great white shark to reach the dragon girl, and then they were ready to launch an attack. What the audience did not expect was that when the great white shark opened its mouth and prepared to bite, it seemed as if it had been stimulated suddenly. As soon as the ground flicked its tail and swam toward the distance, even the other sharks nearby turned around and ran as fast as possible, and in the blink of an eye, the surroundings were completely quiet, and all the sharks were moving as far as possible Run away in the distance.

The outside audience is a bit inexplicable about this change, but in fact we know what happened.

It's actually very simple to say, just like the piranhas we just dealt with, we just get a little current in the water. It's just that the current is much lower than the voltage when dealing with piranhas, so there is no such terrible arc, just a weak current.

About why sharks are scared away by such a low voltage ... In fact, the reason is simple, thinking that the shark's electromagnetic induction ability is too good. It's like the dog can't stand the strong perfume smell, but people don't react. The reason is that the dog's nose is so good, so the smell does not feel strong in humans, and the dog feels too pungent. By the same token, piranhas cannot sense the current in the water, so we can only cook them directly with high voltage electricity. But you don't have to deal with sharks. Because sharks are very sensitive to electrical signals, super-high-power electromagnetic waves are enough to make them feel uncomfortable and take the initiative to avoid them. Even super-high-power electromagnetic waves still have a much lower voltage than can directly cook piranhas.

The outside audience didn't understand what was going on, but they knew a thing very clearly. That is, the sharks are running, and now they can no longer pose a threat to us.

Without the threat of sharks, we easily broke through this particularly large water tank. However, although we didn't feel anything, the audience outside finally found the problem.

Those who had paid attention to time before now took out their watches to check the time, and then everyone quickly got an approximate time for us to enter the water. So far we have been in the water for fifteen minutes. In the meantime, we were not exposed to any air. Although we do not have activities such as fierce fighting underwater, we are always moving, and the power required to move underwater is very large. The amount of exercise like ours, it is absolutely impossible to always rely on closed air to adapt to the underwater environment. Although a whale can suffocate for two hours under water, the proportion of the body of the whale's lungs is extraordinarily large, so that cannot be used as our reference. The volume of our lungs is obviously not as large as that of a whale's lungs, so it is theoretically impossible for us to have too much air-holding time beyond humans.

"They definitely have organs like fish gills," some viewers said firmly, "normal people cannot have the ability to hold their breath for so long, which is definitely not normal."

"Yes, they must have organs like fish gills."

The rumblings of the audience quickly reached an agreement. Because the situation at the scene is too obvious. We have been underwater for more than fifteen minutes, and there is still no reaction to hypoxia, which is definitely not explained by the simple ability to hold air.

Just after the audience's discussions became consistent, we also encountered the next isolation door, and then passed through the isolation door like the previous one and we entered a closed compartment. These compartments are not actually used for drainage, but mainly to isolate the water flow between the water tanks on both sides. For example, before we entered the shark section from the piranha section, the function of the two isolation gates was to reduce the amount of water exchange caused by the back and forth process, and the reason was that the water quality on the two sides was different.

The piranha is a freshwater fish. The great white shark is in the sea. One of the two sections of water just was fresh water. One is seawater, so isolation is needed. The compartment we are facing now is also used to isolate water, but it not only isolates fresh water from sea water, but also plays a more important role in heat insulation.

When we opened the cubicle ... No, it should be said that I had discovered the problem when I touched the door handle on the other side of the cubicle. The door handle I was holding was very cold, which means that the water temperature behind the door must be very low.

The water temperature in the two sections that just came was about 28 degrees. This temperature is already quite warm. After all, the temperature of water in nature is usually not so high. Although I'm temporarily uncertain about the temperature behind this door, I guess it's probably zero.

Sure enough, when we opened the door over here, we immediately felt a icy water flowing out of the gate, and we closed the door against the cold and entered the water over there.

The water temperature on this side is really zero degrees, because the thick ice layer can be seen on the top of the water tank above the head. This shows that the water temperature here may not even reach zero degrees.

Although elementary school textbooks say that the temperature of the ice-water mixture is zero degrees, the premise of this setting is under a standard atmospheric pressure environment. Pressure changes the freezing point of water. If the pressure is high enough, water will not freeze even at extremely low temperatures. Of course, the pressure here is not so high, it just keeps the temperature of the water below minus one degree, and this temperature is not entirely because of the artificial pressure applied here, and more importantly, the water here is It's fluid and fast. High-speed flowing water is harder to freeze at the same temperature, so the two attributes together create this sub-zero water environment.

Although the temperature is only one degree lower than the average ice water, the temperature here is based on human standards, and it can really kill people in minutes.

Normal people soak in ice water below 10 degrees in an unprotected state, and usually persist for no more than 10 minutes. Of course, people who like winter swimming have a stronger cold tolerance and can persist for a longer period of time, but that is also gradually being exercised. And normal people should protect themselves before winter swimming. If you suddenly throw the winter swimming champion into the ice water without any preparation, he will not be able to hold it for a few minutes. And the first winter swimmer can only persist for a short time. Landing is usually just a few minutes, otherwise frostbite will occur. The time after that needs to be extended a little, so that the body has a process of adaptation.

For example, we have just suddenly entered the water at a temperature of 27 degrees to 27 degrees below zero. This temperature change is not ordinary, and we do not have a hobby for winter swimming. If normal people encounter this situation. That would be frozen to death within minutes.

However, the above situation is only according to human standards, but it has no effect on us in the slightest. It's not who we are not afraid of cold. Of course, our ability to withstand cold is much stronger than humans, but the key is that we use electromagnetic control to stabilize the layer of molecules on our body's surface and keep it under a stable vibration frequency. The nature of temperature is actually the frequency of molecular motion. The more active the molecular motion is, the higher the temperature is, and low temperature means that the molecular motion decreases. Of course, zero degree does not mean that the molecular motion stops. The state that the true molecular motion stops refers to the thermodynamic temperature scale of zero degrees. This is the so-called absolute zero. At this temperature, the molecule will completely stop shaking, that is, the well-known Brownian motion will completely stop at absolute zero, and at this time, the material will disintegrate and enter the fourth form other than gaseous, liquid and solid states- Condensed state.

What we just did is that the molecular vibration of the body surface is stabilized at a fixed frequency, which is equivalent to maintaining the temperature of the body surface. At the same time, because we have focused the vibrations of the molecules on the surface of the body so that the molecular kinetic energy is no longer transmitted, our heat loss is very low. In this mode we don't actually need to consume a lot of energy to fight low temperature. After all, the way we fight cold is different from the way that humans protect themselves from the cold.

In fact, there are two main reasons why humans are frozen to death. One. Body fluids freeze; second, the chemical reaction is delayed.

Low temperature will transform the liquid into a solid state, which means that various tissue fluids such as blood in the human body will gradually freeze. But the damage actually started before the blood froze. We all know that blood can transport oxygen, but in fact blood is not the only oxygen. In fact, a lot of other gases are dissolved in our blood, and the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly related to the temperature of the liquid.

When the outside temperature is excessive. When the body's heat production cannot keep up with the heat loss, the body temperature will start to drop, and as the blood temperature drops, the blood in the blood vessels will begin to precipitate various gases, at the same time. Not only gases, but also various chemical substances in the blood will gradually precipitate out. Crystals will appear in the blood vessel walls. That is not ice, but chemical crystals such as salts in the blood. These substances can be dissolved when the blood temperature is high, but these things will precipitate when the temperature drops.

Gas separated from the blood can cause the appearance of vascular cavities, and severely cause cardiac arrest. Crystals in the blood can block blood vessels. And even if that doesn't happen. The blood that has lost a large amount of chemical lysate itself has lost its role in blood, and it can no longer play the role of transporting substances, which means that the human circulatory system is stopped.

If the condition worsens and the blood itself starts to freeze, it's completely gone. This person usually freezes to death before arriving, but there are exceptions, such as local frostbite. Because the body temperature in some areas is too low, the human body regulates itself, muscles are tightened, and capillaries are closed. This can reduce the rate of heat loss, but local areas will lose blood, and then blood in the blood vessels in this area will freeze and freeze, and then freeze The blood will swell, open the blood vessels, completely paralyze the blood circulation system, and the surrounding cells will freeze and crack due to low temperature. Then even if you resume asking questions, the injury has already formed. This is the origin of frostbite.

However, the above conditions are mainly the result of rapid temperature loss. Generally, the human body does not cool down so quickly, so the real reason for the person to be frozen to death should actually be the stop of the human body's chemical reaction.

The human body is a pile of complex compounds that constantly carry out chemical reactions together. This is the essence of life. However, many chemical reactions require a certain temperature. The organism is very sensitive to changes in temperature. For example, when the human body has a fever, the body temperature only rises by a few degrees, which can prevent the bacteria and viruses from multiplying in the body. So fever itself is actually a way for the human body to resist external invasion. As for controlling the temperature of the fever, it is good to protect the brain, because if the temperature is too high, it will damage the brain and cause other problems.

A temperature difference of just a few degrees can significantly inhibit bacterial reproduction. This shows how sensitive the organism is to temperature. Cold-blooded animals are better, they have adapted to low temperature, and thermostatic animals, that is, humans with constant body temperature, once their body temperature changes widely, the chemical reactions in the body will go wrong.

The main trouble caused by low temperature is to slow down the chemical reaction. People consume energy alive, just like there are many electrical appliances in a huge factory. Every cell of the human body needs energy, and these energy rely on chemical energy to generate chemical energy. Low temperature will cause the chemical reaction speed to decrease, and even some chemical reactions will stop completely. Once the chemical reaction in the human body is slowed or stopped, the cells will lack energy, which will cause the body temperature to drop further, and then the situation will continue to deteriorate and become malignant cycle. Eventually, when the speed of the human body's chemical reactions decreases to a point where it cannot sustain life, the person dies.

Our dragons are stronger than humans in this respect, because we are designed as weapons, so the chemical exchanger in our body for energy supply is a substance that can work at extremely low temperatures, which means that low temperature only It will reduce our physical fitness, will not freeze us, or at least not because the chemical reaction stops. Of course, this low temperature has a range. At zero degrees of awareness we have to kneel.

In addition, there are two essential differences between our dragon cells and human cells. the first. The cells of our dragon family have double mitochondria. One of them is responsible for chemical reactions. Like humans, the chemicals in the cell fluid are transformed to provide energy. But we have another mitochondria, this mitochondria can also transform chemical energy, but it is different from the other. It can absorb electrical energy and thermal radiation to directly convert energy to provide cellular power. It can even use the above two kinds of energy in reverse to synthesize energy substances that can be used by ordinary mitochondria. In other words, if our dragons have no food for a long time, charging is also possible. Of course, the voltage needs to be controlled, and we are not complete robots after all. Charging is slow, it's just an emergency maintenance system, not our main way of supplying energy.

This second, in addition to that mitochondria, there is something called the deification factor inside the cells of our dragon family. Of course, this is everyone's name, in fact this thing is the b13 strain.

When transforming dragons, the b13 virion will first infect cells, then inject RNA, and then regenerate cells to form dragons. When this step is completed, the dragon-type DNA in the cell will divide incompletely, generate a new RNA core, and then automatically generate a protein protective layer to encapsulate it. In this state, it feels like every cell in our dragon family has a b13 virus strain, but in fact this strain has been dormant.

So, what does this thing do?

The answer is-emergency.

When our dragons die ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The virus will carry the seal of life into the state of the virus community. At this time, our individual may die, but the mind will be uploaded into the dragon's mind network, and if the mind network is disturbed or other The reason is that it cannot be uploaded, then our will will be carried by these viruses and stored in the RNA in an archive manner. After that, as long as this non-infectious dna virion is found, and then specially stimulated, it can use dna to reversely restore dna information, and then reproduce the entire person again. Of course, this function is confidential, except for our Dragon clan and a few researchers, even if it is known inside Long Yuan, very few.

In addition, in addition to serving as an emergency record after death, this RNA virus strain also serves as a battery.

When our body's internal circulatory system does not work for some reason, causing some areas to fail to supply energy. These RNA strains will begin to output power in the opposite direction, which can support short-term activities of the body or help repair wounds. These capabilities can make us fight low temperatures.

Of course, we still don't like cold, so we use electromagnetic control to block the molecules around the body instead of using the body's resistance to fight cold. (To be continued ...)
