Age of Cataclysm: I can light up the technology tree

Hearing this, Lv Yongchang fell silent.

When on Earth, humans considered themselves to be higher animals.

Compared with other creatures in the natural world of Earth, humans seem to be a unique existence.

Possessing high intelligence, huge numbers, and good at using and making various tools...

With thousands of advantages, humans have successfully climbed to the top of the food chain on Earth.

As soon as they stepped out of Earth, humans discovered primary extraterrestrial life on Mars and Titan.

Even so, those "low-end" lives struggling near the lifeline still did not bring much touch to Lv Yongchang and others.

After all, the two are not at the same level at all.

Until leaving the hotbed of the solar system, they met the Proxima civilization.

As so-called "higher intelligent creatures", Proxima people seem to have too many innate advantages compared to humans.

High resistance to radiation, long life...

Each of these is a racial characteristic that humans can never reach.

In contrast, humans are like a "discarded child" casually fabricated by the Creator.

This is just an ordinary civilization of the same level.

Thinking of the level division in the technology tree system, Lv Yongchang sighed softly.

I really don't know what kind of unique innate conditions those high-level civilizations will have...

He shook his head and threw away the distracting thoughts in his mind.

"Can this telomerase-like substance be extracted?"

Lv Yongchang asked in a low voice.

Mao Zhengzhi also came back to his senses from his sigh.

He frowned slightly and responded softly: "It may be a bit troublesome."

"There are still too few well-preserved Proxima samples."

"The telomerase-like substances that can be extracted are probably pitifully few."

"What's more..." Mao Zhengzhi paused and continued.

"These Proxima people have been dead for a long time, and their cell activity has completely disappeared. Even if those substances are extracted, they are useless."

"If they are injected into the body of Earth organisms rashly, it will only cause a strong rejection reaction."

Lv Yongchang sighed softly.

What a troublesome thing...

The gap between two civilized creatures several light years apart is greater than the gap between humans and plants!

This greatly increased the difficulty of biological experiments.

Unlike Lv Yongchang, Mao Zhengzhi was quite optimistic.

He said with a smile: "Be content."

"At least, the Proxima civilization is still a carbon-based life form."

"If it is a silicon-based life form, we will be at a loss, right?"

Lv Yongchang was slightly stunned, and laughed: "That's true."

He thought for a moment and said again: "Let's start with genes."

"First find the gene fragment related to the synthesis of this telomerase-like substance."

...

With the help of Zero, plus the previous experience of cracking the Atoka gene, this time the cracking work did not encounter too much difficulty.

It only took a week, and the gene fragment related to the telomerase-like substance was presented to everyone.

The real difficulty also came.

After all, this is the gene of an extraterrestrial civilization.

Even though it has a few similarities, it does not follow the human gene coding rules.

In other words, this gene fragment cannot be directly used by humans.

In the main biological laboratory, Mao Zhengzhi looked at Lv Yongchang helplessly.

"What should we do now?"

The entire experiment seemed to have come to a standstill at this moment.

Not to mention Lv Yongchang, at least, when Mao Zhengzhi saw that string of strange gene fragments, he felt a headache!

This thing is not something that can be solved by human's current biotechnology!

Lv Yongchang's eyes were also full of helplessness.

He is not a god, and he is naturally confused when facing this unprecedented situation.

If it were the original, he could still try to seek help from the technology tree system.

But now, because the photon computer has not been successfully developed, the technology tree system is also stuck at the first-level civilization.

This kind of biotechnology is obviously beyond the scope that the first-level civilization should master.

Thinking of this, Lv Yongchang's thoughts paused slightly.

Wait...

Human biotechnology is not enough, what about Proxima civilization?

He breathed a little quickly, and immediately asked: "Zero, show all the biotechnology information found in the central computer of Proxima civilization."

A huge holographic image instantly appeared in the biological laboratory.

Looking at the densely packed entries in it, he subconsciously frowned.

"Screen out the biotechnology related to genes."

One second later.

The interface that was simplified several times appeared in front of Lv Yongchang.

Lv Yongchang glanced at it casually.

"Proxima Gene Coding Principle"

"Proxima Gene Compilation Project"

"..."

Looking at the Chinese characters in the holographic projection, Lv Yongchang's heart was pounding!

"There is a way..."

He muttered to himself.

As he spoke, he stood up and walked quickly towards the door of the biological laboratory.

Mao Zhengzhi: "???"

"Hey!" He hurriedly untied the electromagnetic adsorption device on the chair and quickly followed Lv Yongchang's footsteps, "Professor Lv, what are you going to do?"

"If human technology doesn't work, use the means of Proxima civilization to solve it!"

Mao Zhengzhi's breath was choked, and he subconsciously slowed down his pace: "But, but there is so much information..."

Lv Yongchang stopped at the door of the laboratory.

The door slowly opened.

He turned around and gave Mao Zhengzhi a confident smile.

"Don't worry, give me a week."

After that, he strode out of the laboratory.

"Zero, sort all the information in chronological order..."

Lv Yongchang's voice gradually faded away.

Mao Zhengzhi stood there blankly: "???"

"I... I'm stupid..."

"He wouldn't want to start learning the biotechnology of Proxima civilization now?!"

...

The door of the office suddenly opened.

"Professor?"

Su Yutong's voice was full of doubts: "Didn't you say you were going to the biological laboratory?"

Lv Yongchang walked quickly to his desk, then raised his head and glanced.

Seeing that it was Su Yutong, he gently pulled the corner of his mouth and showed a faint smile.

"Something urgent."

He said concisely: "Please help me close the office door when you leave."

"By the way, don't let anyone disturb me unless it's important."

Su Yutong was stunned: "I didn't say I was going out..."

But at this time, Lu Yongchang had already focused all his attention on the holographic projection in front of him.

Looking at Lu Yongchang's focused expression, Su Yutong suddenly stopped what she was saying.

She had seen Lu Yongchang like this countless times, so she naturally knew how to deal with it.

She turned around quietly and walked towards the office door.

The door slowly opened.

She walked out of the office and closed the door gently.
