The reason why the "Filth" pattern was said to be the strangest was that after the unlucky researcher saw the pattern, a black spot grew on his ankle.
The black spot was only the size of a fingernail. If Chen Chen had not ordered the researcher to take off his clothes for a full body inspection, he would not have noticed it at all.
It was only after Chen Chen had ordered the researcher to take off his clothes that the researcher reluctantly inspected his body. Immediately, he noticed the barely noticeable black spot on his ankle.
The reason it was not obvious was due to the color of his skin. After all, ninety percent of the researchers Chen Chen bought from Namibia were pure-blooded black people. Even among other black people, they were the darkest.
It was not because Chen Chen was racist. In fact, Chen Chen did not care about skin color. He would buy any researcher he could, even Caucasians and Asians. He treated them equally. It was only because Namibia was a country rich in black people.
Getting back to the topic at hand, after the black spot appeared on the Delta-level researcher numbered D 00253, he did not feel anything at first. The black spot was like rubbing against soot. When he reached out to touch it, he could even feel a layer of black ash.
However, as time went by, the area of the black spot would gradually spread. At the same time, black spots would also appear on other parts of the body. Moreover, these black spots would seep into the body. An hour later, the area of the black spot on the researcher's body had expanded from the previous one square centimeter to ten square centimeters.
The location of the black spot had also changed from one to three spots. They were the left ankle, right elbow, and left cheek.
At this time, the researcher also began to feel that something was wrong.
This was because the skin around the ankle was already in a state of carbonization. A light touch was enough to smear a thin layer of black ash. The researcher could also pluck off a piece of black ash with a finger.
After plucking off the black ash, the researcher's ankle revealed a dent half a centimeter deep. One could even see the flesh and bones that had not been carbonized.
However, this kind of carbonization would not stop. Even if all the black ash on the wound was washed away, it could not be stopped. Even if the flesh and blood of the carbonized area was dug out, it could only temporarily slow down the process. Soon, black spots would grow on other parts of the body.
However, the strange thing was that this carbonization was not felt by the researcher, not even the slightest bit of pain.
Finally, after 15 hours, the carbonization had spread to the test subject's entire body. His limbs were all broken, and the black spot on his head had also penetrated deep into the test subject's brain. Only then did the test subject die completely, ending his life.
However, this carbonization did not stop because of the death of the researcher.
Twenty-four hours later, the last part of the researcher's body was completely carbonized, and the whole person turned into a pile of loose black ash. If it was in the outside world, even the ashes would be gone with the wind.
After experimenting with the "Filth" Basilisk pattern, Chen Chen did not stop. This was because he had learned from the information compiled by Yoru Kamidera that this "Filth" pattern was different from other Basilisk patterns. The symptoms it produced were contagious.
Chen Chen of another researcher A looked at "Filth" pattern. St. After that, Chen Basilisk pattern, Chen Chen had for. and after. After that, Chen Chen had Filth Basilisk.
Then, Chen Chen noticed that the black spot did not show any signs of contagion without physical contact between the two.
Even if the black ash that fell from Researcher A's body was touched by Researcher B, it would not be contagious. The real way of contagion was through physical contact between two people.
Moreover, this contact was random. This meant that even if a healthy person came into contact with an infected person of "Filth", it was not guaranteed that they would be infected. There was a certain chance that they would be immune to the erosion of "Filth".
It was just that as the degree of physical contact between two people increased, the chances of infection would increase as well.
Little X had conducted several experimental statistics. The probability of infection from physical contact with "Filth" was about thirty percent.
"Compared to other patterns, the Basilisk pattern 'Filth' has a certain degree of contagion. It's closer to the characteristics of 'mysterious phenomenon' than the Basilisk pattern."
At this time, Chen Chen was sitting on the sofa, silently watching everything that was happening in the observation window. His expression was devoid of emotion. "If the Basilisk pattern is the initial manifestation of the memetic effect and the 'mysterious phenomenon' is the later manifestation of the memetic effect, then 'Filth' is obviously in the middle stage of evolution. It has both the characteristics of the Basilisk pattern and the characteristics of the 'mysterious phenomenon'."
"That's right, I think so too."
Little X replied, "Then, Sir Godfather, how do you think we should crack these memetic effects? In any case, I can't find any knowledge that can analyze the memetic effect in the database of human civilization. This is a discipline system that has never been discovered by humans. "
"It's not that it's never been discovered. Didn't the famous British scientist Richard Dawkins' book The Selfish Gene explain the concept of memes?"
Chen Chen smiled. "It can only be said that mankind's understanding of memetic technology is still stuck at the level of a proposition. Mankind has almost no knowledge of this field. If we want to study it, we don't have to start from scratch. Don't forget that I brought back the manufacturing method of the Gantz server machine as well as a language called Everlasting, or E Language for short. As long as Little X can master E Language, won't you be able to control the Gantz server machine?"
"That's worth a try!"
Little X was suddenly excited when she heard this. "You're right, I've also looked up the information you brought back. This E Language is more sophisticated than any programming language but also more refined. If I can master it, I can even convert my own programs into E Language code. If I can do that, I can even make the Gantz server machine my new home!"
"That's right, that's what I'm thinking."
Chen Chen nodded. "As long as you can control the operation of the Gantz server machine, it should be very easy to study memetic effects. At least it won't be as clueless as it is now."
Following the conversation between Chen Chen and Little X, the first Basilisk pattern experiment had come to an end. As for the more intense mysterious phenomenon experiment, Chen Chen could not do it.
First, there were no mysterious phenomena in the real world. Second, if possible, before Chen Chen mastered memetic technology, he did not want any mysterious phenomena to occur in the real world.
This was because for the current Chen Chen, no memetic technology was invincible. Once it broke out in the real world, it was almost equivalent to a death sentence for Chen Chen's world.
