Chapter 416： Strange gene

Li Ziming pressed a button at the end of the treatment table, and a multifunctional medical device terminal slowly moved down from the ceiling, and finally hovered 1 foot on Zhou Ai's back.

On the other hand, Valentine set the operating parameters on the control side, and explained to Tang Fang: "I will try to relieve her pain with anesthetics, and then use laser microbeam puncture with optical tweezers to directly obtain scale samples. Take care of you. she was."

"Good." Tang Fang felt a little slippery in his palms, thinking it was the girl's sweat.

It can make her fear so far, one can imagine how intense the pain just now.

"Don't worry, I will always be here with you."

"Hmm...well..." Zhou Ai nodded slightly, his eyes narrowed and tightened, and finally he blinked twice before falling asleep.

At the same time, the syringe was slowly raised from the back of her neck and retracted into the terminal hole of the multifunctional medical device. After this, the basic axis used to switch the assembly is rotated, and a laser probe is slowly extended from the central hole and moved to the place where the color scales are located.

Valentin looked back and pressed the confirm button.

A little light was shot out from the probe Lingjing, Tang Fang only felt that the girl's stretched hands suddenly tightened, and her body was convulsed.

Fortunately, the operation process is very short, only one or two seconds before and after.

"Fortunately, I didn't insult my life." Valentine sighed.

Seeing Zhou Ai regaining her calm and breathing longer and longer, Tang Fang took a sigh of relief, got up and asked, "How?"

"Sample analysis is in progress, please wait patiently." Li Ziming stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry too much, Ji people have their own natural looks." Tang Fang nodded and said nothing.

After 10 minutes, the test result came out. Valentine slid a few times while holding the PDA, and his mouth opened wider.

"How is the result?" Tang Fang stepped forward, "Are there any potential dangers?"

Valentin synchronizes the data to the central display. Pointing to the crystalline cell aggregates said: "The structure of Ai Zhou's vest scales is very strange, the cells resembling crystals are densely arranged, and the surface biofilm has a certain degree of hardness. On the contrary, it is rich in nerve tissue and is extremely sensitive."

"I'm very surprised. How do they integrate into the human body, and how they connect with the nervous system, and then transmit bioelectric signals."

"Also, squamous cells are very different from ordinary human cells. Their energy output level is very low, there are few extranuclear organs, and the nucleus is very large, accounting for almost 85% of the entire cell body."

"Moreover. The nucleus is divided into many small blocks, and the genetic material contained in each block is different."

Having said that, Valentin swipes the touchpad again, and several dna model pictures appear on the display one after another: "How is it? Did you see anything?"

Tang Fang looked at the first picture and said, "This is... the gene chain of aqbd-1 asexual jellyfish?"

"Yes, it is the gene chain of aqbd-1 asexual jellyfish that stripped the epsilon gene fragment. As for the second single helix diagram, the third double helix diagram, and the fourth four helix diagram, I don’t know. Do you have any impression?"

Tang Fang frowned, and suddenly remembered that Valentine had introduced him to the scene of the giant snake gene at the Ypsilon relay station before.

"Are some segments of the giant snake gene?"

"Not bad." Valentin nodded, "It is the DNA fragment that makes up the giant snake gene."

"What's going on? The nucleus of the squamous cell contains many kinds of DNA!"

"This is not the weirdest." Valentine's fingers continued to slide. The camera shifted to the central area of ​​the cell nucleus, and a spherical polyhedral DNA chain appeared in front of the three people.

"If I guess right, this polyhedral DNA chain is the basic genetic material of the color squamous cell. It consists of two parts, the outer epsilon gene fragment, and the core phagosome gene."

"Look, the reticulated gene of epsilon is folded end to end to wrap the phagosome gene to form this polyhedral DNA chain. In this way, the phagosome gene will be suppressed by the epsilon gene and lose its phagocytosis. Characteristics. This situation is similar to Roy's right arm, of course. There are still differences between the two. The mixed genes of Roy's right arm are controlled by human will. However, Cailin's genes cannot be controlled by humans."

"The phagosome gene, the Epsilon gene, the giant snake gene, the aqbd-1 asexual jellyfish gene..." Tang Fang twisted his eyebrows into a ball.

Valentin groaned a little, and said: "Based on the cellular structure of the color scale. The composition of genetic material, I suddenly thought of a possibility, whether the color scale is a gene bank? Based on polyhedral DNA, a kind of'hive database' was constructed. ', every cell is a hive, and each hive stores DNA from different organisms."

"Gene Bank?" Tang Fang glanced back at the girl who was sleeping on the treatment table: "Will Cailin have any adverse effects on her body?"

"Probably not. After all, the phagosome gene is captured and suppressed by the epsilon gene and cannot assimilate human cells. Naturally, there will be no harm."

"That's good."

Tang Fang felt calm, and then remembered the origin of these genes, frowned, and a little light flashed in his heart. At the Ypsilon relay station, Zhou Ai had swallowed the gallbladder of the giant snake, and he didn't care because it was all right afterwards. To this day, judging from the aqbd-1 asexual jellyfish gene contained in the color scales, the parasitic follicle must have had a certain degree of influence on the girl during the battle with the "one-eyed Tai Sui".

In the same way, the giant snake gallbladder is not a good thing. I didn't expect it to be lurking in Zhou Ai's body all the time, and even medical equipment could not tell it.

What happened to Zhou Ai today must be the result of the interaction between the gallbladder of the giant snake and the parasitic follicles. Valentin once said that the giant snake may be a concoction, possessing both the epsilon gene segment and the phagosome gene segment.

In the giant snake dna chain, the epsilon gene is absolutely dominant, suppressing the phagosome gene fragments to death, that is to say: epsilon gene power> phagosome gene power.

The parasitic follicles of "One-eyed Tai Sui" swallowed many organic creatures. The phagosome gene has grown tremendously, far surpassing the epsilon gene part of the aqbd-1 asexual jellyfish gene, namely: phagosome gene power> epsilon gene power.

When these two diametrically opposed forces collide together, a great battle is inevitable.

Judging from Zhou Ai's current performance, it should be the epsilon gene that has the upper hand. Not only changed the girl's physical fitness and genetic structure, but also sealed the phagosome gene to form a polyhedral DNA chain. Finally, the colorful scales of the vest came out.

"Walao, you can analyze the data by yourself. As for the color scale samples, please give me a use." Tang Fang knew how precious the phagosome genes were. If the units above the wormholes that are suspected of cerebral worms are to mature, they still need to come. Inject several phagosome genes from different individuals, and the dna of the color scales of Ai Zhou’s vest can be described as a variant of the phagosome gene to a certain extent. Since the variant phagosome gene in Roy’s right arm can raise the vesicles above the wormhole The incubation progress. Then, Cailin's DNA may also have the same effect.

Valentin walked to the end of the medical table and clicked a button. Five seconds later, an inch-sized specimen box popped out of the rectangular hole on the side of the multifunctional medical device terminal.

"Why do you want this?" When handing it to Tang Fang, he asked casually.

Tang Fang smiled without saying a word, took the specimen box, walked back to the treatment table and pointed at Zhou Ai, "How long will it take for her to wake up?"

Valentin looked at the timetable: "It's almost enough in 15 minutes."

"Oh, I see." So he pulled a chair from the side and sat down, waiting for the girl to wake up.

Just 10 minutes of effort. Li Ziming, who has been studying the sample data, suddenly walked over, leaned close to Tang Fang's ear, winked and said: "Blessed you kid."

"What do you mean?" Tang Fang puzzled.

Li Ziming glanced at Valentin ahead. Seeing that the old professor was meticulously comparing genetic differences, he did not pay attention to the situation here, so he lowered his voice and explained: "I just compared the neural network profile of the color scale sample, and found that regardless of the distribution of neurons and the density of peripheral nerves, It is similar to a human tissue and organ."

"Guess what organ?" Dr. Li Da, who claimed to be from a professional class, said every word, his expression was three-pointed ghost and seven-pointed wretched.

"Huh?" Tang Fang was stunned: "What organ?"

Li Ziming looked back at Valentine again and saw that the old man was still busy with himself. This was a relief: "Look at the shape of my mouth."

The guy bit the tip of his tongue and his lips changed. Speak 2 words with a volume almost suppressed to zero.

The corners of Tang Fang's mouth twitched twice, and the corners of his eyebrows almost hung into the sky. It is absolutely impossible for this product to be of a professional background. Even if he had worked as a doctor, I am afraid he would not be an internal medicine doctor like he introduced himself, but a tm urology doctor is almost the same.

"Brother Tang, think about it, as long as you control the intensity and heat, let alone seven times a night, seventeen times are not a problem. This way you can save energy to deal with Claire. Tsk, tusk, sister Huazhe..."

Tang Fang has a black line. This Li Ziming's tricks are really amazing, and most of them are meaty.

He looked worriedly at Ying Luo outside the window, and then at Li Ziming with fear.

Doctor Li seemed to perceive something, his eyes widened, and his face flicked: "Who are you me?"

"It's not a serious person anyway." Tang Fang raised his eyelid and gave him a blank look.

"Brother Tang, it was not me who told you. When we were young, that was also a romantic and suave, a talent, even if it is not counted as countless women, but it is a love veteran, the queen bee in the flower, and a young girl like Yingluo who has not yet grown up. Son, to use a more vivid metaphor, that is, a bowl of boiled water, which does not suit our taste."

"Blow, continue to blow, the cowhide is blown to the sky for you, just like you, and suave? Water crotch diapers are almost the same!"

"What romantic and suave, diaper with water crotch?" The two were lying here, when Zhou Ai's lazy voice suddenly came from behind.

Tang Fang looked back. She had already sat up at some point, frowning, and looking at the two with a puzzled expression on her face.

"You're awake." Tang Fang asked caringly, "Do you feel any uncomfortable?"

"Where am I so squeamish." Zhou Ai jumped off the treatment table and sorted out the slightly messy clothes.

"Hehe, you talk, I still have some work to be done." Li Ziming retired with the opportunity.

Tang Fang put the seat back in place, and said, "Since it's okay, it just so happens. Come with me to ‘Christier’."

Zhou Ai nodded, and the two bid farewell to Valentine and Roy, and walked out of the medical laboratory side by side.

"You haven't told me the results of the inspection yet." Zhou Ai asked on the way.

Tang Fang smiled slightly: "It's okay. It's hard to explain the actual situation in one sentence or two sentences. Just rest assured."

"I have always felt at ease. You are the one who is upset."

"Ha, that's right." Tang Fang smiled: "If something happens to you, who will fight with me in the future?"

"Huh. I think bickering is fake, is it true to eat tofu?"

"Didn't you always enjoy it?" Tang Fang blinked. A sly look.

"Huh huh..." Zhou Ai squinted at him: "Believe it or not, I told Claire that you are indecent to me."

"Eldest sister, today I was the first to insult you, I just didn't resist." Tang Fang shrugged innocently.

"rogue!"

"Why, I didn't do it again, just moved my eyes. This is considered a hooligan, aren't all men in the world a "liu" generation senior brother? Or... you are saying something ironic, ironicing when I should do it Shot? There is something to say. If you want to enter a woman's heart, you must first enter her "beep...beep"."

Zhou Ai bit her lower lip and stared at him with anger, "Tang Fang, you are a rascal."

"I'm just telling the truth." Tang Fang felt aggrieved.

At this moment, two crew members passed by and accidentally heard the conversation between them. They couldn't help being dumbfounded. The person who could force Zhou Ai to this point was probably only the Captain of the entire Morningstar.

Zhou Aiqiao blushed as if feeling the eyes of the two crew members a little bit. He scolded: "What are you looking at? Are you out of work? Clean the port side hangar for me ten times. If there is a little oily dirt, I will not be allowed to eat for 3 days."

A word frightened the two of them and fled without a trace.

"Hedong Lion..." Tang Fang whispered.

Fortunately, Zhou Ai did not hear. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will cause another storm.

...

Leaving the Morningstar by the shuttle, the two returned to the "Christier" industrial park. Because Ruskin was still leading people to clean up the battlefield, they handed over the cargo ship log chip to Sheridan and Fielding for viewing.

Tang Fang didn't pretend to be sentimental, and said directly: "I want to know the origin of'it'."

Fielding was embarrassed: "Brother Tang, let me tell you, I really don't know the origin of the samples in the cargo ship. You must know that I am only a management member of the transportation department. Regarding the origin, value and other related information of the samples, Does not have the right to know. If you want to obtain sample details, you must contact the deputy manager in charge of scientific research."

"How long will it take for quantum communication equipment to be repaired?"

Sheridan thought for a while and said, "Three days should be enough."

"That's good. I'll wait for your reply in 3 days." After that, he stood up and was about to leave. Zhou Ai suddenly said, "Wait." Then he looked at Sheridan, "Food in the industrial park." How much is there in the reserve? The inventory on the Morningstar is running out."

"This is simple. There is a food warehouse in Area C, so I just want to get it." Sheridan and Fielding smiled at each other. The transportation team came here not only to transport biological samples, but also to supply supplies.

The food warehouse in Area C is larger than five Morningstars, not to mention that there is a plantation at the bottom of the industrial park, so there is no danger of food shortage.

"I remember that there is still a lot of food reserves on the Morningstar." Don't pass Sheridan and Fielding, as they drove the shuttle back, Tang Fang couldn't help asking.

"Have you forgotten what day is tomorrow?"

"What date? Your birthday?" Tang Fang asked back.

"You are still a Han Chinese." Zhou Ai curled his lips: "According to the earth calendar, tomorrow should be the Lunar New Year."

"Spring Festival?" Hearing these two words, Tang Fang was silent for a while, counting the days. It has been several months since he traveled into this world. I don't know what happened to my parents.

Once he disappears, will Dad pick up the cigarette that has just been quit for two days? Will my mother's high blood pressure recur?

"Tang Fang, Tang Fang, what do you think?" Zhou Ai shook his arm in front of him.

"No...nothing, just some feelings."

"Yes, during the Spring Festival, one year old again."

"Want to marry?" Tang Fang quickly picked up his melancholy, because he knew that he had no choice. All he can do is to follow the situation.

Zhou Ai gave him a hard look: "Yes, I just want to marry."

Tang Fang smiled: "Do you think I should ask the two matchmakers to go to'Zirog' to find the father-in-law Lao Tai Shan to propose marriage?"

"Stop stinky." She had already learned this kid's ability to beat snakes and sticks, and it was a natural habit.

"After a while, I'll take people to'Christier' to pick up some ingredients. Anyway, I'm idle ~ www.novelhall.com~ How about a Spring Festival party tomorrow? By the way, celebrate the reunion of old friends."

"Okay." Tang Fang nodded, "I haven't eaten your cooking for a long time, I am greedy."

"..."

Five minutes later, the shuttle slowly drove into the resource supply depot wharf. Tang Fang went to check the repair progress of the Pirate Warship. Zhou Ai selected a few cooking soldiers, transferred to the medium shuttle, and went with her to the "Christier" to carry them. Ingredients.

After obtaining a sufficient supply of materials, the repair progress of the Pirate Warship is extremely fast. After all, with Emma providing repair solutions, Tang Fang feels embarrassed if he can't surpass the logistics maintenance class of "Venus Pharmaceutical" by several times, or even dozens of times, with the aid of high-tech equipment that surpasses the current technological level.

More than three hours have passed since the "White Beard" Pirate Group retreated, and 5 lightly wounded ships have been completely repaired. According to this schedule, if construction is carried out day and night, the repair work for 87 lightly wounded Pirate warships plus 44 severely wounded Pirate warships can be completed in about 5 days.

After the inspection was completed, Tang Fang returned to the Captain's Chamber of the Morningstar, and after the worm was summoned, he gave it a sample of Zhou Ai's vest colored scales and ordered it to be injected into the wormhole decomposition pond. (To be continued)
