But in the final analysis, the only thing that the people who formulated this plan need to consider is the continuation of the human race.

It is obvious that the continuity he recognizes is genetic and racial continuity, not cultural continuity.

The existence of those unethical equipment and medicines means that he has predicted the possible future of the colonial spacecraft, but he did not choose to stop it. Instead, he secretly supported it all.

In the vision of the planner, the Dandelion Project might lead to a significant regression in human technology and culture.

But as long as the race can continue, such regression is acceptable on a larger timeline.

Since Lin Qingliu has chosen to take responsibility for this, he must make a decision for all human beings on this planet.

He has given up using "Instrument No. 1" and producing "Quick Adults". Although these two technologies can bring him a large number of loyal and cheap population resources in a short period of time, he also has his own bottom line.

Now that that path has been abandoned, the only thing left is to use the limited population of Hope City to turn the tables, so making the current soldiers more elite is a must.

Now this biomass is in front of Lin Qingliu, and his next decision will affect the future of Hope City.

Lin Qingliu didn't know whether this biomass was a poison or an antidote, so he chose -

Testing medicine.

"Eh? Using me as an experiment? Really?"

Lin Qingliu in the clinic looked at Arthur in front of him and the jar of purified biomass on the table with shock on his face.

"Do you know that Arthur is actually just a shell, and Lin Qingliu is the real owner?"

Arthur nodded and said:

"You're right, but shouldn't the energy level determine who is the original and who is the clone? I have always been the original, and you are just a clone of the second energy level, a clone I created with my own hands. I even held you in my arms when you were a child."

"…The eaves."

Across the table, the second-level clone Lin Qingliu fell silent.

After a long while he said:

"It's a bit strange to say this to myself and do this."

"I think it's OK because I have a clear self-awareness."

"No, you feel okay because it's not you who is doing the experiment."

Lin Qingliu, who was sitting across the table, showed a look of disdain.

As a gentle and refined psychologist, Lin Qingliu had almost never given anyone the cold shoulder like this.

But the guy on the other side is also me, so it doesn’t matter.

"If there is something wrong with this thing, will it affect my body after I eat it?"

"It's possible."

Arthur nodded:

"So I will cut off all contact between us before you eat it."

"Damn it, you're pretty well prepared."

A hint of sneer appeared on Lin Qingliu's face:

"You better actually have a plan."

After saying this, he took a little biomass from the glass beaker with his right hand and placed it in his hand, just quietly touching it, while his left hand made a common gesture from his previous life.

Five minutes later.

"There's nothing uncomfortable about physical contact."

Lin Qingliu said.

“Okay, let’s move on to the next stage of the experiment. Eat it.

"Should you say something? This thing might be poisonous."

Arthur kindly reminded.

Lin Qingliu brought the beaker to his mouth and drank it all in one gulp.

After swallowing the last mouthful of sticky biomass, he looked at Arthur across from him:

"You must keep."

"Bang."

Lin Qingliu’s second-level clone smashed his head on the table.

As the life of the clone dissipated, Arthur could no longer feel the biological field in front of him.

Well, it seems that the mysterious biomass is indeed toxic.

But since direct contact with the flesh does not cause any problems, it means that this biomass can still be utilized to a certain extent.

Arthur came to the dead clone and put his hand on the other's head.

The body he created began to rapidly wither, and the remaining vitality in the body entered the original body, along with the memories after the connection was cut off, which returned to the original body.

Lin Qingliu carefully felt the clone's feelings after the connection was cut off, but discovered a new problem.

If someone dies after ingesting a small amount of a substance, it can be roughly concluded that the substance is poisonous.

It can be further subdivided based on the mechanism of death, such as toxins like heavy metals and proteins.

But from the death of this clone, Lin Qingliu seemed to have discovered a new toxin——

Top toxin.

After ingesting that biomass, the clone's senses seemed to be directly cut off, and its consciousness quickly disappeared after being cut off.

It was like... some creature wanted to use that substance to revive in the body of its clone, but failed in the end due to some reasons.

This is too scary.

Lin Qingliu suddenly felt a chill.

Even when hyphae infect humans, they first invade and coexist before interfering with the human brain.

It takes less than ten seconds for this biomass to reach the top after being ingested, making it a truly high-risk substance.

But considering that skin contact did not cause any discomfort, this substance does have application value and can be used to try to produce that new type of battery.

---

"You mean to say that as long as this substance is not ingested, it is completely harmless to humans?"

Ji Yongxing looked at Lin Qingliu in front of him with some surprise, wondering how the other party knew the news.

After purification, the biomass is very viscous and there will be no splashing when poured on the table, so if safety can be guaranteed by simply avoiding swallowing, it is really a good material.

However, Ji Yongxing's eyes wandered between Lin Qingliu and the biomass, as if he was questioning the authenticity of the information.

After all, firstly, the structural formula of this biomass has not been figured out yet, and secondly, Hope City strictly prohibits human experiments, so he completely cannot understand the source of the news.

"Well, this news is very reliable, and..."

Lin Qingliu organized his words:

"You can rest assured that it does not violate public order and morality."

"……good."

Ji Yongxing nodded, and then asked doubtfully:

"So what can this substance do?"

“Maybe it can store energy.”

Lin Qingliu gave an ambiguous answer, and then explained:

"There is a device in the spacecraft that can store energy for matter. At that time, the 'Disaster Core' used this to make a mecha battery for Wang Xiao.

"That device can also do something similar to humans. The Disaster Core has been fighting this way for a long time.

"So biomass should be able to do something similar. You can try to make a battery prototype first, and then go to Mr. Arthur to conduct experiments together."

The more Ji Yongxing listened, the more he felt there was hope, and the expression on his face became much more lively.

He took the cup of unknown substance from Lin Qingliu's hand, turned around and walked towards his own laboratory.

"I will be able to make the first sample within three days."
