Jacob saw the confusion in Xu Cheng's eyes, and he gave him a simple explanation, "Now, I'm sure that the reason why you can have so many genetic cells in your body and still be fine is all because of the characteristics of the tardigrades' genes. vDtOm, let me first give you a brief introduction about the tardigrades. The reason why the tardigrades are able to survive in the harshest of environments is because their genes have a strong ability to adapt. A human's genetic cell source is very simple, and there's only one of it. If it's contaminated or infected, it will die. Many other animals are the same, but 18% of the tardigrades' genes are of foreign origin. In other words, it can quickly absorb genetic bacteria or DNA from its surroundings to adapt to its own survival. It can also divide these foreign genes into its own genes, and this is the biggest reason why the stable genetic cells in your body didn't go haywire and kill you! This is simply a perfect idea, too genius! "
Jacob exclaimed, and he almost popped open the champagne to celebrate this discovery.
Xu Cheng didn't understand these scientific theories, so he frowned and looked at his recovered wound. "I remember I was injured and shot, can you explain it to me in simpler terms?"
Jacob: "Actually, you're already dead."
"Dead?" Xu Cheng frowned.
Jacob nodded. "On the way to the hospital, you lost too much blood and died. If I was a normal person, I would have declared you dead if I didn't look closely, but the tardigrades' genes saved you. Tardigrades can revive after being frozen for 50 years, and no matter how harsh the environment, it can hide itself and enter into a state of suspended animation. It can even survive in outer space, and when you were injured, it put your entire body into a state of suspended animation. This way, no matter how harsh the environment, your heart would still be beating weakly and slowly. Your brain went into hibernation, and all of your tissues were hacked and stopped moving. You're in a frozen state, and even the electrocardiogram couldn't capture your slow-beating heart. Because creatures with slow heartbeats usually have a long lifespan, it put your heart in a half-dead state. Do you understand now?"
Xu Cheng nodded, finally understanding a bit. He pointed at the wound and said, "I mean, what happened to my wound?"
Jacob said, "That's even easier to explain. First of all, Tardigrades can 'dehydrate' and decompose cell tissues to freeze themselves into a state of suspended animation. Then, once they come into contact with water, they can absorb water and be reborn. During this process, their cells become riddled with holes, so they can absorb all kinds of molecules from the environment, including DNA. Finally, they are very good at repairing DNA and repairing damage caused by dehydration."
Xu Cheng fell into deep thought.
Jacob said, "That's all I know for now. As for the effects of the other animal genes in your body, I don't know."
Xu Cheng narrowed his eyes. If he found out about the other effects, this person couldn't be allowed to live! Or in other words, this person must not be left alive! If Xu Cheng was allowed to continue his research, sooner or later, they would discover the changes in his vision, strength, and balance. At that time, Xu Cheng would be captured and dissected like a monster.
Just when Xu Cheng was about to make his move, Jacob turned around with a piece of data in his hand and said, "I also discovered that the genes in your body are starting to merge."
"Merge?" Xu Cheng was shocked.
Jacob nodded. "The Tardigrade's genes are being decomposed and recombined. As time goes on, they will completely merge, and at that time, you might no longer be a human."
Xu Cheng's eyelids twitched. "Then what will I be?"
Jacob looked at Xu Cheng and said in a serious tone, "The DNA in your cells will completely merge, and in Western movies, you will be called a mutant!"
Xu Cheng: "At that time, I will be captured and dissected, right?"
Jacob looked at Xu Cheng and said, "You should cooperate with me, I can help you. I just want you to be successful in the medical field, how about it? I promise I won't treat you like a lab rat like other researchers. "
Xu Cheng: "What's the difference? In the eyes of mad scientists like you, human lives are no different from those animals. "
When he went to destroy that lab with the three swordsmen, he saw all kinds of animal and human corpses being experimented on. It was simply inhumane.
Just as Xu Cheng was immersed in his memories, Jacob sneakily took out an anesthetic needle from his drawer and suddenly rushed over to stab Xu Cheng. In his eyes, Xu Cheng was the key to his success, so how could he let Xu Cheng leave just like that?
Xu Cheng didn't even bother to look at him and sent him flying with a punch. The guy smashed into the wall and spat out a mouthful of blood.
He quickly got up and found a bag to put Jacob's notes in. These things would be useful in the future. He didn't even know what genes he had in his body, and he didn't dare to go to the hospital for a checkup. But this time, Jacob actually did some statistics, and he felt like he could be useful in the future.
Casually looking at the introduction of the Leaf Ants, Xu Cheng was stunned. Then, he looked at his fists, and Xu Cheng kind of understood why he could explode with so much power. It turned out that the Leaf Ant genes played a key role!
But he didn't quite believe that it had something to do with it. But after seeing the characteristics of the bat, Xu Cheng believed it, because only he knew that the reason he could shoot with his eyes closed was because of the ultrasonic feedback! If the characteristics of his body were related to the instincts of these species, then it really made sense.
But what shocked Xu Cheng was that the Leaf Ants could explode with 50 times their own strength, and Xu Cheng could barely feel that he could only explode with 25 times his limit. There should still be room for improvement, right?
He really didn't dare to imagine how crazy he would be at 50 times. Would he be able to punch through a wall like the Hulk?
Thinking up to this point, Xu Cheng felt more and more the importance of not exposing his secrets. He quickly cleaned up the clues that Jacob found, and he directly poured water on the computer to burn the circuits. Then, he punched the computer and destroyed the hard drive.
In the hallway, Beishan was sitting with his head raised up to the ceiling. When he saw the infrared light from the camera in the hallway suddenly go off, he suddenly became alert.
They're here!
At this moment, a group of British police officers walked over.
Seeing them rushing over, Lin Chuxue stood up and asked, "What do you guys want?"
She subconsciously leaned against the door of the operating room, not letting the police get close.
Lin Lei helped her up.
The leading police officer said to Lin Chuxue, "Miss Nicole, don't stop us, we are here to arrest a wanted criminal."
Lin Chuxue: "Who's the wanted criminal?"
Police: "Xu Cheng!"
Lin Chuxue: "He's not! Even Her Majesty the Queen isn't going to pursue this matter, what are you guys doing here? "
Police: "Sorry, we are here to arrest someone under the orders of the British government, not the queen."
