Chapter 53

"This is area DH624, the largest barren area in the empire!" Joyce suddenly reminded loudly, "Besides the Ark Gene Bank, where else can you go to find seeds?"

Yan Xi didn't stop, and didn't turn his head, he just waved his hand as farewell to them.

Professor Chen looked at the key in his hand, and the emblems of lions and plants were still on it.

Morrissey...

"Forget it, come in." Professor Chen stopped Yan Xi and the others.

The sub-library of the Ark Gene Bank was originally the private property of the Morrises family, and he also promised His Excellency the Grand Duke that those who enter with the Morrises family crest can use everything in the sub-library.

and……

This secondary warehouse may no longer be able to function...

Yan Xi stopped when he heard Professor Chen's words.

Instead, the other staff members were in a hurry.

"Professor, that's a fallen beast!"

"Don't let that monster in, it will eat us!"

"professor……"

Professor Chen just glanced at Mu Han who was beside Yan Xi, and asked Yan Xi, "Can you guarantee that the fall...your companion beside you won't get out of control?"

Yan Xi looked at Mu Han, the look in Mu Han's eyes was clear, and he didn't have the wildness of those fallen beasts.

"Of course!" Yan Xi assured Professor Chen, "He is my companion, and I can assure you that he will not harm any of you."

"Then come with me." Professor Chen said.

"professor……"

Others wanted to persuade them, but Professor Chen stopped them with a wave of his hand. "I believe in the person chosen by Your Excellency the Duke."

The others shut their mouths, but they still looked at Yan Xi and the others warily.

Professor Chen led a group of people to the auxiliary warehouse and walked through a long man-made tunnel, accompanied by old voice-activated lights and cold concrete walls.

Through the light screen of the smart terminal's glasses, Yan Xi detected that the wall of the tunnel is a full layer of one-meter-thick concrete slabs, and the safety design used has even reached the level of a national-level gold reserve.

Moreover, the soil outside the tunnel wall has the geological features of permafrost.

Someone created an artificial tundra deep underground, but it miraculously did not disrupt the local natural balance.It only formed a tundra zone locally, but did not affect the soil quality next to it, just like a bug.

Professor Chen watched Yan Xi look around, and asked, "Miss Yan seems to be very interested in this place?"

"It's so cold here, even if it's cold underground, it shouldn't be this cold." Yan Xi glanced at the temperature displayed on the smart terminal.
-
18 ℃!
What an amazing temperature!

The temperature of the freezer compartment of the refrigerator is generally set around this temperature.

This place... seems to have been deliberately controlled at this temperature.

"Because it's tundra outside." Professor Chen didn't hide it. "So it will be a little cold."

"The geology and landforms here don't seem to have the conditions for the formation of permafrost?" The conditions for the formation of permafrost are that this area is covered with snow all the year round, and this area does not look like it is covered with perennial snow.

"It's man-made, the permafrost outside the walls, it's been more than 120 years old."

"More than 120 years? But I heard that the history of the Ark Gene Bank is only a hundred years." Where did the extra 20 years come from?
"It was not the Ark gene bank, but a private germplasm gene bank." Professor Chen looked at the thick concrete wall, "Its owner is a very great person."

"Can you tell me this story?" Yan Xi was very interested.

"Of course!" Professor Chen is quite willing to tell these juniors about the history of science.

More than 120 years ago, a heavenly wizard appeared on this continent, and he was also the first head of the Morrises family.He is a businessman and a natural scientist. He led the top talents in the group to improve the grain seeds at that time, researched "super crops", solved the problem of human hunger at that time, and saved millions of people in the world. of hungry people.The Morrises family also became the largest food supplier in the world.

This Morrises, who fully supports the cause of scientific research, built this seed bank.It was originally just a private seed bank.Later, the great war that almost destroyed civilization began and ended, and a large number of scientists were slaughtered. At that time, this place became a secret shelter, saving many persecuted scientists.

After that bloody storm in the scientific research community passed, this germplasm bank also became a secret sub-bank of the Ark Gene Bank.

"This is the kindling of human beings, the biological ark to eradicate hunger and poverty," Professor Chen recited the creed of the Ark Gene Bank, devoutly and persistently, attracting the staff beside him to recite along with him.

"It is our eternal faith!"

The atmosphere was sensational for a while, but Yan Xi was still puzzled. "Can I ask a question?"

"what is the problem?"

"Although, the constant temperature of the germplasm gene bank is generally controlled at a temperature of about minus 18 degrees, and the humidity is controlled at about 40 degrees, which is the best. But..." Yan Xi shivered, "As long as this is well controlled in the warehouse The temperature and humidity are just fine, aren’t they? Why make the entire underground environment like this?”

Could it be that if you want a refrigerator, you make your whole home into a refrigerator?
