Previously, scientists discovered some prehistoric animal remains here,

Although it has been thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, the corpse is still well preserved!

But there are not only animal remains in the permafrost, but also plants, ancient viruses, bacteria and other microorganisms. It can be said that this is a place full of surprises and dangers.

As early as eight years ago, six scientists from Xiongguo discovered a cave for squirrels to store food in the permafrost of Siberia. This cave was buried in the frozen soil at a depth of 38 meters underground, and contained many fruits and plants. seed.

Through testing, they found that these seeds were two to 30,000 years old, and also successfully revived these seeds from 30,000 years ago using plant cloning technology.

So far, scientists have successfully awakened a variety of long-dormant single-celled organisms, and also resurrected nematodes 30,000 years ago and xeroid plants thousands of years ago.

And two years ago, scientists in Xiongguo revived creatures from the permafrost.

It's a clump of microbial bdelloid rotifers that have been frozen for about [-] million years!

Scientists isolated and analyzed permafrost samples to ensure they were not contaminated by modern microbes.

To bring these dormant creatures back to life, they put a piece of permafrost into a petri dish filled with a suitable medium, and waited for the living organisms to emerge from dormancy, start moving and

Breed.

, The process of k live does not have any technical content.

Being able to revive again after [-] million years is entirely due to the heaven-defying vitality of the bdelloid rotifer!

The vitality of this creature is the same as that of water bears, and it can be called the strongest in Blue Star.

The bdelloid rotifer was first discovered 300 years ago. At that time, the famous Helan scientist Anthony Leuvenhawk took soil from the drain outside his residence and added water. When he observed the microorganisms in the water, he accidentally discovered leeches Rotifers.

It is a freshwater invertebrate that reproduces asexually and has a body length of about [-]mm to [-]mm.

Scientists once believed that one of the reasons why animals mate was to create biological diversity through mating,

The discovery of bdelloid rotifers overturned the theory that animals need to mate to create biodiversity.

The eggs it laid... turned out to be all female offspring.

The vitality of bdelloid rotifers is extremely tenacious,

At any stage of life, it can survive for several years in the absence of water without being completely dehydrated,

After returning to the water, it will revive again,

Among other things, it can withstand low oxygen, starvation, high acidity, and radiation.

and,

Bdelloid rotifers can even steal someone else's genes during DNA repair!

This is one of the most heaven-defying skills of bdelloid rotifers! ,

They also use the principle of survival of the fittest when stealing genes from other species,

Select the beneficial ones, exclude the harmful ones, and form your own genes after merging and mutating.

therefore,

They don't have to worry about asexual reproduction resulting in low genetic diversity!

Polar ice worms, tardigrades, bdelloid rotifers...

Xu Qiu murmured.

These creatures, before that, were not worth mentioning at all, but now they are filled with a terrifying aura.

Sha Weizhao's face was a little gloomy.

Xu Qiu's words made him think of another creature...

"Director Xu, everyone, there is a kind of creature, which is also an ancient creature, and it is one of the ice sheet ecosystems, and it has become extinct..."

Xu Qiu looked away, "Tell me."

"Ice Field Decapitated Wolf!"

Sha Weizhao clenched his fists and said, "This was discovered last year in the permafrost in eastern Siberia, the bear country.

"This thing isn't as old as the bdelloid rotifer, more than 40,000 years old, but it's terrifying.

The teeth, fur, brain tissue and soft tissue on this wolf's head are all well preserved.

In fact, because eastern Siberia is covered by ice and snow all year round, it is said that the carcasses of animals can be preserved very well. Among them, very well preserved lion cubs and mammoths have been found.So, it should come as no surprise.

Because of being covered by ice and snow, this wolf head is very well preserved, covered with a thick layer of fur, and looks very fierce.

According to the research, the wolf was about three to four years old, and its head was about [-] centimeters long, which can be said to be twice the head length of modern wolves.This discovery undoubtedly makes people better understand the ice age.After the creature dies, the internal organs will gradually begin to dissolve,

Cartilage will gradually disappear,

In the end only the bones remained,

And this is why only bones remain on the fossils we have discovered.

However, this wolf head preserved the soft tissue of the hair and brain. It is precisely because of this that many people doubt whether this wolf head can be cloned.

Throughout the research process,

Scientists conducted a CT scan on the wolf head and found that the brain structure in the wolf head is still very well preserved.

But the shape of the head and the structure of the skull are slightly different from those of modern wolves, and there are also certain differences in DNA from modern wolves.

And with in-depth research, even more terrifying things happened...

This wolf head from 40,000 years ago is not only very well preserved, but also very large,

A wolf's head...it's basically similar to the current bear!

And the most terrible thing is that the teeth in the wolf's head are even more neat than human teeth! !

Huge as a bear, with teeth like a man...

Moreover, there is another puzzling point.

How was this wolf head cut off?

The section of the wolf's head is very neat, it doesn't look like it has been bitten by an animal.

And this wolf has existed for more than 40,000 years, and the earliest time humans arrived in this area was [-] years ago...

Besides, at that time, humans didn't have sharp weapons at all, so how could they neatly cut off a wolf head that was about the size of a bear? "

Sha Weizhao's eyes were a little confused, and he said: "Now, many scientists suspect that, perhaps more than 40,000 years ago, there were creatures similar to werewolves in that area of ​​Siberia.

"They are huge in size, and their claws are as sharp as the sharpest knives of our time, they can instantly cut off the heads of the same kind...

"If such an ancient creature really existed, how could it be revived...

"Nowadays, we may not be afraid of such things, but when these creatures hide and wait until the era of extreme cold comes, this group of werewolf creatures that are naturally active in the ice field will gather in groups...

"The surface will become their paradise!"

At this moment, the auditorium was silent.

Many people stared with disbelief in their eyes.

Werewolf creatures 40,000 years ago...

40,000 years, and today's Blue Star, the environment has not changed much, that is to say, if this kind of thing really is, they definitely don't need to worry about adapting to the environment or not! Xu Qiu squinted his eyes.

The system only gave a few hints about the recovery of paleontology in the North and South poles during the Little Ice Age.

Ancient creatures, new rebirth.

The sun goes out, is the system's lie,

However, the prediction of the Little Ice Age is part of the system incentive award, and there will certainly be no mistakes.

That creature... what exactly?

This meeting lasted for three hours.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the meeting ended, and everyone was worried. Obviously, no satisfactory answer was obtained.

After Xu Qiu returned to the office, he sighed heavily.

"This kind of creature should not be too rampant!"

Xu Qiu's eyes were deep, and he said: "Because this kind of creature appeared on the surface of the earth after the sun went out...

"Before that, they had been lurking somewhere, and after the sun went out, some scientists from the North and South Poles discovered their lairs.

"However, there are only a few descriptions of this creature, not even what it looks like and how lethal it is, and there are no pictures!

"The only thing I still remember is that it shocked ecologists in the North and South Pole, as well as many paleontologists." Xu Qiu leaned back on the chair with a tired expression.

Sure enough, one lie requires countless lies to fill.

According to what he said before, he came from the blue star after the sun went out,

As for the Little Ice Age, the recovery of creatures in the Little Ice Age is actually based on the condition of rebirth.

Therefore, Xu Qiu should know all of this.

However, the system does not give information on this recovered paleontology.

Now Xu Qiu can only take one step at a time, saying that there were only a few words about this creature back then!

"do not care!"

Xu Qiu's voice brought Li Bingqing, Zou Baitao and others back to their senses.

He said: "Everyone should hurry up, the Little Ice Age is less than a month away.

"Get ready for the Little Ice Age.

The global temperature drops by [-] to [-]+ degrees, and even the equatorial region may drop below minus [-] degrees. This kind of drastic change will bring huge social changes to all countries in the world... Perhaps, this time the Little Ice Age , will bring unprecedented changes to the global situation! "

Xu Qiu could predict that this natural disaster might break the current international situation.

Moreover, after the Little Ice Age, the chaos of the world will come completely...

Today, the world is still too quiet!

Human beings have no empathetic fear for this doomsday, and they don't know how terrifying it is when the sun goes out...

That is a fear that cannot be reproduced by any horror novels or horror movies. Human tears turn into icicles, and blood freezes in an instant...

The world is frozen!
