moving city, ark

The experiment itself is actually a process of trial and error, but it is definitely not as simple as it sounds.

Hands-on experiments can be done by a college student or even a high school student with relevant knowledge about moving points. However, in the face of countless possibilities in the whole world, and the superimposed effect of exponential growth on top of this, only by trying, in the modern It has long been impossible in science.

How to narrow the scope of experimental selection before the experiment starts is the biggest test for researchers.

That requires not only a lot of theoretical analysis, but also a certain amount of scientific research intuition.

What Luo Yi is doing now is to analyze and screen out the possible parts from a large amount of existing data, and then tell her.

This is a very cumbersome process and requires a lot of analysis and calculations. It doesn't mean that it is impossible to complete, but she has already prepared for the two to spend a period of time together to complete this work before starting the experiment.

But the current situation is obviously beyond her expectations...

Of course, there is another possibility that these results have not been rigorously considered, and are just what the other party said quickly.

She involuntarily glanced in Luo Yi's direction.

The man still stood straight in front of the huge screen, his dark pupils reflected the azure blue fluorescent screen, even though his face was covered by a mask, his unshakable gaze was still eye-catching.

Based on her understanding of Luo Yi, the probability of the second possibility is not high.

Although Luo Yi may seem a little out of tune at ordinary times, but when it comes to business, Luo Yi has always been the most trustworthy one.

Moreover, if the rigor of the experiments cannot be guaranteed, it is impossible for Luo Yi to complete so many projects.

However, even after being complained like that, she still had to say something.

Luo Yi's speed is really fast...

"..."

Luo Yi, who was concentrating on watching the scrolling screen, suddenly had an uncontrollable twitch in the corner of his eye, slightly interrupting him from his state.

……what's the situation?

He glanced left and right.

Kelsey in front of the test bench is doing his own work according to his command, other than that, there is nothing unusual in the experiment.

illusion?

Such a thing is not easy for him now.

Suspiciously putting this little doubt behind him for the time being, he refocused on his work.

Experimental record, September 9, the eighth day.

"what's the result?"

"Look for yourself...there is still a long way to go to the effect we need."

Kelsey, who was wearing a white coat, moved away from the seat in front of the laboratory table while talking.

"Really... let me see..."

He stepped forward and glanced at the screen.

The flat-panel-sized display screen displayed the image under the scanning electron microscope. A large number of light spots with purple fluorescent marks interspersed in the tissue fluid of the infected person as a sample, mixed with gray particles representing origin stone particles and various cells.

Luo Yi frowned.

This is not the result they want to see.

According to Luo Yi's initial discovery, in the final outbreak stage of ore disease, the inducing factor for the rapid crystallization of a large area of ​​the human body is derived from a certain pheromone related to ore disease.

After their analysis of this pheromone, they have been able to conclude that these pheromones are essentially the combination of Originium particles and polypeptide hormones in the human body.

After the crystallization density of blood Originium and the fusion rate of Originium body cells in a patient with ore disease reach a certain critical point, for some reason, Originium particles will start to seize all kinds of hormones flowing in the human body—including Peptide-based hormones - the messengers that inform the entire body of the 'final outbreak'.

As long as it is something that actually happened in reality, it can be analyzed scientifically, even if it may seem magical, the same is true for ore disease.

It may seem unbelievable that the human body turns into a whole crystal within a few seconds to ten seconds, but under the scanning mirror, the whole process is still traceable.

To put it simply, from the index of fusion rate of origin stone somatic cells, it is obvious that origin stone and human cells can combine with each other, and the index of blood origin stone crystal density also shows how much origin stone contains in human blood. stone particles.

In the final outbreak stage of ore disease, the origin stone grains fused with human cells will quickly absorb the origin stone particles in the blood, forming a surface cluster structure like a sea urchin, piercing the cell membrane, and then completely swallowing the entire cell.

This kind of behavior occurs in a large number in a short period of time after being conveyed by the messenger, and it can form the scene of the rapid crystallization of the human body in the eyes of outsiders.

Of course, this may only be a few words, but the actual changes in the human body are obviously much more complicated than this, and in that case, it is difficult to observe in detail with Terra's current equipment level.

Being able to discover the existence of pheromones is already thanks to the fact that the equipment used by Luo Yi is several grades higher than it is now.

The origin stone particles combined with polypeptide hormones are basically the same as ordinary origin stone particles when observed by equipment with insufficient precision. Existence has further raised the requirements.

However, now that the target has been discovered, he and Kelsey are now of course conducting research based on these special messengers.

Ore disease is not a barrier that cannot be crossed. Ordinary people can be afraid of ore disease, but these researchers cannot have such an idea.

Without these key messengers, even if the ore disease continues to accumulate in the human body, the final result is only the expansion and increase of human crystal lesions—for example, the origin stone crystals on the body surface of the ore disease patient and the crystals that appear in the organs— —But there will not be a chain reaction like the final stage.

Perhaps this still can't solve the death caused by the continuous progression of ore disease, but with the current medical level, if combined with the long-term stable use of statins, the life span of ore disease patients can be extended to the point where it is close to that of ordinary people.

After all, even ordinary people are not immune to diseases. Ore disease occupies a dominant position in the human body, and at the same time, it will also cause many viruses to fail to obtain a living environment, resulting in the elimination of some diseases, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

On top of this, there is another crucial point that there is no explosive effect like the final stage. Even if the disease of a patient with ore disease breaks out, it only needs to be sent to the hospital, and it is not possible to become an unhealthy person anytime, anywhere. A steady source of huge infections.

of course……

Before considering these benefits, the most important thing is how to solve this problem, or how they should deal with these messengers.

"After the origin stone particles are combined with the polypeptide, they show resistance to other similar substances. Neither polypeptide substances nor proteins can enter the origin stone particles that have been combined with the polypeptide."

Looking at Luo Yi who was frowning, Kelsey who was standing aside said.

To deal with these messengers, they first faced two problems.

One problem is how to accurately locate the polypeptides bound to the source stone particles, and the other is that after combining with the source stone particles, the polypeptides containing information will be protected inside the source stone particles, which not only makes it difficult for them to Being found to be different from other origin stone particles also makes it impossible for ordinary means to plot evil against the 'faith' they protect.

After some trials, they finally decided to try to fish in troubled waters with the same peptides.

Since origin stone particles can accept polypeptides, it may be a good choice to let some molecules with ulterior motives mix in, and it can also solve the problem of positioning.

However, judging from the results, it is obviously not very ideal.

"Would you like another option?"

Kelsey looked at Luo Yi and asked quietly.

Scientific research has never been without failure. Since it is trial and error, the error itself is expected.

Luo Yi looked at the screen in front of him, but his eyes seemed to penetrate the wall, looking into the unknown void.

After thinking for a while, he spoke slowly:

"Other options may not necessarily be better than now. There are not many things that can enter the origin stone particles, but they are not too many. However, the problem is how to let them find the messenger we need."

The origin stone particles are distributed in various places in the body of ore patients. If the weapons they create are mixed with origin stone particles aimlessly, it is obviously difficult to function.

It's like chemotherapy kills a lot of normal cells in addition to cancer cells.

What they need now is a long-term effective means, and such a method is obviously contrary to their purpose.

He has a lot of medical knowledge in his mind, but it is a pity that the origin stone seems to be a specialty of Terra, so he has not been able to get any information related to it, that is, he can only rely on himself now.

Just like he needs to undergo his own transformation to realize many technologies in the world's origin stone technology tree, inhibin also relies on a large part of his own efforts to develop it.

However, he is actually used to relying on himself to solve problems more of the time now. Even if he encounters some obstacles now, he doesn't think he will stop there.

ps: this sensitive word...

The institute's unified experiment records, September 9st, the tenth day.

Shining Lab.

"...It's time to eat... Liz."

"Wait for me a little longer...I'll get the rest ready."

Liz, who was standing in front of the instrument, remained motionless.

The instrument has not been started yet, and some samples are still not ready in her hands. If they leave now, they will have to wait for a while to finish this work when they come back after eating.

"..."

Shining sighed slightly.

"That's not something that can be completed in a short period of time. You don't need to delay lunch until after the meal in order to save that little time. This project can't be completed in a short period of time. It's easy for you to disrupt the eating pattern. Your body is not very good, even if Luo Yi forced you to exercise before..."

"The Shining... so annoying."

Before she could finish speaking, Liz, who was completely unable to concentrate under the constant chanting, had already put down the things in her hands. While taking off the mask, her thin lips were slightly pouted in dissatisfaction, and she walked towards her .

It's not her style to talk so much, but as long as it can persuade Liz...

Taking off their masks and gloves, the two walked towards the cafeteria of the institute.

No one was seen on the road.

The total area of ​​this research institute is not small, but there are not many people who actually use it.Even with the auxiliary staff cleaning the equipment, it usually looks very empty.

It's hard to say whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, but Shining doesn't care about this right now.

"Research can't be done in a hurry, Liz...you should already understand this truth."

After hesitating for a while, she still spoke these words slowly.

Normally, the current situation would not happen to Liz. As for why it is different now, she actually knows the reason well.

"I know……"

The girl walking with Shining stared at the ground obliquely below, looking a little downcast.

Because she was going to enter the laboratory, the long rose-blond hair behind the girl was tied into a bundle, and matched with the white coat on her body, there was an extra bit of sophistication rarely seen in girls, and at the same time, it also faintly revealed A touch of maturity.

After nearly a year of work and exercise, everyone will grow, not to mention that girls have experienced a lot more than ordinary people.

"I don't want to hold everyone back."

Liz bit her lips lightly, "This is only the first project, our progress has been intermittent, and it will only be more difficult in the future..."

"..."

Shining sighed inwardly.

This is not wrong, but this time they are facing a different project than before.

Even if Liz is very talented and very hardworking, for a beginner, it is impossible to get in touch with things that are too difficult no matter how fast.

And this time, even if the project they faced was not the most difficult, it would not be smooth sailing for anyone.

If it was normal, there might not necessarily be any problems, but in the current situation, she also knew Liz's mood very well.

He said he didn't want to hold everyone back, but for Liz who was finally able to help Luo Yi, what really cared most and was absolutely unacceptable was obviously only the matter of holding Luo Yi back.

She feels the same way about it.

After all... you can't really watch such a situation happen...

"If you want to push the progress of the experiment, you and I usually spend more time, and the diet and work and rest must be guaranteed."

"Eh?"

Liz turned her head.

This is not as easy as it sounds. The so-called 'spend more time' may mean that Shining needs to work many, many hours with her because of her willfulness.

"..."

The girl pursed her lips.
