Chapter 318 Cross Species Gene Fusion and Group Consciousness
"What's the matter? The white mouse cheats the corpse?"

As soon as Tang Rui woke up, he received Honglian's report.

All the mice on Mars that were used as virus experiments were deceitful, and even the half-dissected mice got up.

It was pretty scary at first.

Later, a group of scientists discovered that all these little white mice had no intelligence, so they boldly studied them.

The result was that the virus that had eroded the neuronal tissue mutated, completely took over the neurons, and forcibly controlled the activities of the mice.

"Honglian, show the video."

"Okay, master."

On the projection screen, a group of white mice climbed up, headed in one direction, and then began to hit the glass non-stop.

After watching this video.

Tang Rui curiously asked Honglian where the mouse was facing, and the answer he got was the location where the hole was drilled before the Mars base.

It is clear.

There is something wrong with this virus.

"How long will it take for the spacecraft to reach Mars?"

"It will take another three hours and ten nine minutes."

"Okay, let me know when it arrives."

Wake up and have breakfast.

Tang Rui returned to the laboratory, contacted the Mars base, and communicated with it to see if there was any progress.

"Academician Tang, this is not a virus."

"Not a virus?"

"Yes, this should be a special kind of microorganism, or a special kind of microorganism disguised as a virus, but not a virus."

After the scientist on Mars finished speaking, he showed him the data of the mutated virus in the mice yesterday.

Say nothing else.

The original virus and the mutated virus have completely different gene sequences.

The most frightening thing is that when this virus mutates, its internal special gene code will be transformed into different gene sequences according to the different genes of the invading organism.

To put it simply, the virus that invaded mice and the virus that invaded the human body, after mutation, the gene sequences of the two viruses are different.

This mutation will completely adapt to the host's genes without any rejection reaction.

Even the function of neuron tissue can be completely simulated without any difference.

If it weren't for someone's brain opening yesterday.

Injecting hallucinogenic drugs into mice, I really couldn't find this situation.

"So, this microbe is a special kind of life?"

"That's right, but we are more inclined that this is a biochemical weapon, or a means of predation by a special kind of life."

Tang Rui nodded after listening.

The emphasis on this virus has once again raised a level.

It is highly contagious, can invade the body, can carry out targeted genetic modification and fusion, and is controlled by some kind of mother.

"Be careful yourselves, the spaceship I sent will arrive in more than two hours, and I will investigate that underground world then."

"We are fine. Yesterday's discovery overturned our previous research. We are currently analyzing the genetic changes before and after the mutation of the virus, trying to find that special gene."

There is no need for Tang Rui to comfort them. These biologists are not afraid at all, but are still very excited to do research there.

joke.

The value of this virus is inestimable.

Once it is deciphered how the virus perfectly transforms the fusion gene, the problem of cross-species gene fusion will no longer be a problem.

At that time, cat ear girls will not be exclusive to Two-dimensional.

noon.

The spacecraft that Honglian launched yesterday finally arrived at Mars.

After the plane landed on the edge of the Mars base, more than a dozen robots moved the living box containing the mice into the base.

Tang Rui didn't care about this matter, he directly asked Honglian to control the ground-drilling robot to drill a hole downward.

The formation, which was not very deep, was quickly penetrated.

Below the cliffs, there is indeed liquid water.

And there are quite a lot of reserves of these liquid waters, roughly calculated, there are more than 2000 million cubic meters.

"Honglian, we have to analyze the samples of the water resources, and then infect the few cyber mice with the virus, and record the whole process of the virus entering the mice."

"Okay, master."

Next to the cliff, a temporary experimental cabin with only about [-] square meters has been built.

Honglian controlled the robot and began to operate according to Tang Rui's instructions. Among them, the few cyber mice were the most unlucky.

Each of them drank a lot of water.

After drinking the virus-laden water, they become ready-made observation devices.

The big screen in front of Tang Rui displayed all the activities of the virus after it entered the mice.

Look for neuronal tissue, then invade, replicate, and replace neuronal cells.

However, 80.00% of the neuron tissue in cyber mice is composed of nanorobots.

Therefore, these viruses can only erode 20% of neuron cells.

This time.

With the existence of cyber mice and professional in vivo display equipment, Tang Rui clearly saw the mutation of the virus.

They invade neuronal cells, corrode cells, and are also phagocytes.

at this time.

The genes of the virus began to recombine, using neuron cells as the blueprint to fuse the gene sequences of the virus.

In the end, the perfect replacement of neuron cells became part of the neuron tissue of mice.

"It seems that those scientists made a mistake. It wasn't the virus that was stimulated by the hallucinogenic drug to mutate, but the mutation had already occurred when it invaded neurons."

Tang Rui muttered softly as he watched the series of changes in the virus in the cyber mouse.

At the same time, he also solved a previous doubt.

Why the immune system does not attack the virus.

Because the virus has learned to camouflage.

They can swallow immune system cells in mice, and then undergo division and transformation to become immune cells.

This is also why the immune system does not work.

There are traitors within.

Tang Rui waited for more than an hour.

After these viruses occupied most of the nerve cells in the mice except for the nanorobots, the mice were injected with hallucinogenic drugs.

Hallucinogenic agents activate virally transformed neuronal tissue.

A little white mouse lying on the ground.

At this moment, I stood up and began to crawl towards the outside, not very fast.

"Honglian, open the life support box, let this little white mouse go, and see where it is going." Tang Rui said to Honglian.

"Okay, master."

click!
The life box is open.

The little white mouse crawled out and crawled towards the outside.

By the time it climbed out of the experimental cabin, its movements had become more agile, and it was no longer the stiff crawling before.

The cyber mice exposed to the surface of Mars had many problems in their bodies, but these problems were solved by the nanorobots.

Nano-modified mice.

It is definitely unrealistic to want to survive in outer space.

But there is nothing wrong with living on the surface of Mars for a period of time.

The cyber mouse that climbed out quickly burrowed into the borehole leading to the ground, and finally fell into the water.

At this time, the virus in the mouse began to divide and reproduce frantically, which was destructive.

"Master, a special biological wave signal has been detected."

"Where is the signal source?" Tang Rui asked immediately.

"Master, according to the feedback from the nanorobot, the signal source is the entire underground lake."

The whole underground lake?
But there is nothing in the underground river.

It has been scanned just now, and there are no other creatures or objects except water. If there were any, Tang Rui would have asked Honglian to salvage them.

nothing?

Where did the signal come from?
Or some kind of biological wave signal?
"Can you decipher the content of the signal?"

"It is transforming the brain wave information of the white mouse. After the cracking is completed, the content of the signal is: gather food, survive and reproduce, and destroy life."

This……

Tang Rui frowned as he looked at what Honglian had translated.

"Master, the mice in the Mars base got up again, this time they hit the glass wall even more frantically, trying to run out."

"Notify the lab and let them release five mice... Forget it, you control the robot, take out the five mice, and throw them at the entrance of the drill hole."

"Okay, master."

10 minute later.

Five little white mice were released by the robot.

These mice were not nano-modified, so the moment they were exposed to the surface of Mars, their internal organs and blood vessels ruptured.

But even so, the virus controlled the neuron tissue, controlled the body of the mouse, and crawled towards the borehole.

Little white mice climbed into the borehole one by one.

Fall into an underground lake.

next second.

The bodies of these five mice were digested at a speed visible to the naked eye, and they were quickly corroded clean just like the corpse water in the movie.

But Tang Rui knew that it wasn't their bodies melting.

Instead, it was digested by countless viruses as food.

This special virus can not only erode neuron cells, they can even erode any biological cells, even hair is no exception.

Don't ask Tang Rui how he knew.

In the cyber mouse, except for the organs and body composed of nano-robots, other cells have been eroded and digested by the virus.

After these viruses have eroded and digested all the cells, they divide again and retransform into the virus form.

This ability is very perverted.

What's more perverted.

When countless viruses gather together, these viruses seem to have a group consciousness.

Look at these data obtained through cyber mice.

Tang Rui was numb all over.

You told me this thing is a virus?

Biological weapons are not so scary.
