In the unknown century of Guangyuan, the unnamed galaxy achieved unification. To address population issues, a marriage matching system was developed, forcibly pairing people through data calculatio...
"Yes, he was the only person in the empire at the time who had mastered gene editing technology, and he was also my and Lin Ling's teacher."
"So, you can make cleaning agents?" Zhou Siyu slapped his thigh. "That's great! Let's look for raw materials in the lab..."
"The other ingredient is a golden liquid from the Lianmu grass, and this stuff has already..."
"Is this it?" Zhou Siyu took out a vial of golden medicine and handed it to Zhou Yu, explaining, "These are things extracted from Yu Wei's blood."
"Do you know what this is?" Zhou Yu held up the golden liquid and said slowly, "Carriers of the Lianmu grass gene cannot directly produce Lianmu grass juice. Only a small portion of the cell fluid in their blood contains the Lianmu grass gene. This two-milliliter tube of extract requires at least four hundred milliliters of blood, and it must be fresh blood close to the heart."
What will he do?
"Excessive blood loss can lead to a weakened immune system, and massive blood loss can cause shock or even death. According to you, he has to have his blood drawn every now and then, and the interval between them is no more than a month."
"What is the minimum amount of cleaning agent needed?"
"A lot, and they need to be fresh enough."
Will he die?
“Not necessarily, sister-in-law, you can’t think like that,” Yu Zhen quickly interjected. “With my brother’s constitution, having a little blood drawn every month is no big deal. You said it yourself, my brother has advanced genes, his cell renewal rate is very fast, and after the secondary differentiation, even his wood and grass genes are more active…”
“Yu Zhen is right. Don’t worry about whether Yu Wei will die; you need to worry about yourself first.” Zhou Yu opened his computer and did some calculations, biting his pen as he said, “When Yu Wei transforms into plant form, he can produce more Lianmu Grass liquid. Combined with what we brought out, it should be enough…”
The only problem is that once the genes of the plant are exposed, they quickly lose their activity and efficacy.
"If... I mean if, we could cultivate a complete Lianmu Grass, would Yuwei not have to die?"
The human body's hematopoietic function has an upper limit and cannot be replenished indefinitely. The ratio of 400 ml to 2 liters is simply a pipe dream to complete the production of a cleaning agent.
"Isn't this even more difficult?" Zhou Yu bit the pen cap. "Let alone whether you can train him, can your physical condition wait until then?"
“Cultivating Lianmu grass first, and then making the cleaning agent, is simply impossible, taking forty or fifty years each time. This is based on the premise of cultivating living Lianmu grass. If you can’t cultivate living Lianmu grass, are you just waiting to die?”
He knew that Zhou Siyu's genetic contamination was not caused by external factors, but was the result of the fusion and mutation of multiple genes.
According to regulations, two people carrying more than three genes are not allowed to get together, but he scoffed at this and, despite carrying four genes himself, got together with Vince, who also carried four genes.
It is generally believed that individuals carrying three genes or two genes are the most ideal beings. Two genes are fixed genes inherited from family bloodlines, and genes from either the father or mother. Three genes, on the other hand, inherit genes from both the father and mother.
Since all three genes are inherited, they can perform their respective functions and coexist peacefully, working together to resist things that do not belong to the body, and allowing the body to complete multiple evolutions at the right time.
It has been proven that the fewer types of genes a gene carries, the more stable the genetic material, the higher the gene level, the higher the purity of pheromones, and the more room for development there will be for offspring.
For example, Yu Zhen only has family-inherited genes and genes from his mother, while Lin Ling only carries one type of Lianmu grass gene. Their offspring, Yu Wei, is a perfect triple gene carrier, capable of multiple evolutions, and may eventually become a being that transcends the mundane world.
However, carrying more types of genes does not necessarily mean higher development; in fact, the developmental potential of carriers with four or more genes may be greatly reduced.
Carriers of the four genes are known as natural loners. Their genes are disordered and they will constantly kill each other in order to have more room to continue their lineage. This not only reduces their potential for physical development, but also makes them more susceptible to diseases.
Moreover, the offspring of two multi-gene carriers will have even more gene types. Such children may die at birth, and even if they survive to adulthood, they may not be able to differentiate normally.
Zhou Siyu is a lucky one among millions. Although he has multiple genes in his body, the genes of the Lanling Tree are strong enough to completely control the evolution of his body, so he can complete a differentiation.
However, the secondary differentiation stimulated the contaminated snowy owl gene in the body, breaking the monopoly of the bluebell tree. The two genes fought endlessly, and other genes also became active and developed independently.
"In other words, if there are no other genes, the genes of the snowy owl after secondary differentiation should be very pure and will not harm me in any way."
“Yes, the Snowy Owl gene you inherited from Vince has been contaminated. After secondary differentiation, it was regarded as an invader by the Orchid Tree.” Zhou Yu knew what he wanted to ask and explained, “The Lianmu Grass and the Orchid Tree have a special connection. Yuwei’s pheromones will enhance the activity of the Orchid Tree’s genes, which can temporarily suppress the active Snowy Owl gene.”
"Gene cleaning agents can remove contaminated parts of the snowy owl's genes, while also removing other genes to prevent them from being contaminated again."
Genes inherited from the father and mother undergo long-term fusion during the embryonic period, becoming familiar with each other and each performing its own function. Once a contaminated gene becomes active, it will be regarded as an enemy and eliminated by the dominant gene.
"Perhaps, cleaning agents are not necessarily needed."
Zhou Siyu bit his lip; he had a bold idea.
Discard the Lianmu Grass in the cleaning agent and use a lot of Ghost Hand Vine. As long as the Lanling Tree can devour the Ghost Hand Vine genes that complete the task, just like the Lianmu Grass, the number of gene types will decrease.
