grafting
I wonder how many dragon horn cells are contained in the ten-centimeter square of thick fog in the device.
To be on the safe side, Ling Shi was the first to try to contact these cells.
He gently pressed his finger against a soft silicone hole in the lower left corner of the device and flipped the switch.
Then the thick fog began to roll and flow along a pipe on one side.
The thick black-gray fog slowly flowed through the pipe, directly to the exit, and flowed out from the soft silicone holes, slowly staining Ling Shi's fingers.
Ling Shi just felt a chill, without any other special feelings.
After waiting for a quarter of an hour, he saw that the thick fog in the central hole had thinned out a bit. He turned his head and asked Lu Tingxiao, "Is it almost done?"
Lu Tingxiao snorted, "It's okay, go ahead and eat all the good stuff the whole team has worked so hard to get back."
He glanced at the others around him and said, "Anyway, these people like you and won't have any objections."
Ling Shi finally reacted, his face felt slightly hot, and he immediately turned off the switch.
"I'm sorry, I was careless."
"Oh, it's okay." Zuo Hao said carelessly, "If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to move this equipment back."
"What does it feel like?"
Ling Shi felt it and found that the original soreness in his body had improved a lot, but other things... seemed to have not changed.
"I seem to have regained some strength."
"Ah?" Zuo Hao looked surprised: "Just recovered some strength?"
Ning Fu directly took out the wristband: "Put it on and try it out."
"Not so fast." Lu Tingxiao said, "It takes time to digest and absorb foreign cells. Even if you get bit by a rotten person, you won't die immediately."
Ling Shi took the wristband, put it on his wrist, and nodded to Ning Fu: "I'll observe the data."
"Do you want to try something else?" Lu Tingxiao raised his eyebrows and looked at him.
Something else?
Oh, by the way, it can also graft multiple evolutionary abilities.
Speaking of this, Ling Shi was a little excited: "What should I try?"
"Yeah," Lu Tingxiao looked at him, his tone dragging out. "What do you want to try?"
Ling Shi sensed a hint of danger in his tone.
He glanced at Ning Fu, then immediately turned his head back: "Your ability is still the most powerful. How about...trying your cells?"
Lu Tingxiao was visibly satisfied. He nodded slowly, "That's about right."
There was a disposable medical first aid kit in the room. Ning Fu took it and placed it in front of Ling Shi.
Ling Shi nodded to him, pulled Lu Tingxiao's finger, poked him with the tip of the needle, and inserted the needle stained with blood and cells into the round hole in the lower right corner.
“How many cells are enough?”
"If you don't like it, just cut off my finger." Lu Tingxiao was still being pulled by Ling Shi, and he didn't struggle.
Ling Shi smiled unhappily and let go of his hand: "Maybe it's okay. Let's try it first."
He put down the needle, placed his finger on the silicone hole again, and turned on the switch.
This time, he immediately felt something strange.
It was like... something that didn't belong to him had forced its way into his body.
In just a moment, the remaining blood and tissue in the circular hole in the lower right corner were sucked out completely, as if it had been carefully wiped with an alcohol swab, leaving nothing behind.
Ling Shi turned off the switch again and looked at his fingers with a frown.
"What's wrong?" Lu Tingxiao asked jokingly, "You didn't cut my finger just now, but now you're thinking about cutting your own?"
"Get lost." Ling Shi said unhappily, "I feel like...something's different, but I can't put my finger on it."
"My stuff," Lu Tingxiao said proudly, "Of course it's special. It's bound to transform you completely..."
Listening to Lu Tingxiao's nonsense, Ling Shi put down his hand: "That's enough. If it doesn't work, where will you put your old face?"
Several people around laughed secretly.
"Let's wait for your results first." Lu Tingxiao said seriously, "Others should not try it rashly."
With this order, the others reluctantly dispersed.

It was lunch time again, and everyone gathered in the restaurant, chewing the same disgusting bread, when Sergei came again.
"Good news!" He was already shouting before he even entered the room, "General Pushkin has given in and told you to go to the laboratory first."
"Based on the principle of mutual benefit, everyone should give in to each other."
Ling Shi put down the food in his hand and saw Sergei walk into the restaurant.
He suppressed his excitement and asked, "Can we go to the lab now?"
"Yes." Sergei nodded. "How is Captain Ling doing?"
He was about to say "nothing serious", but his mind raced and he said, "He's still quite weak. We need to observe him to see if there are any sequelae."
It's over, he has been completely led astray by Lu Tingxiao.
"Okay." Sergei nodded. "If there's anything we can do to help, please let me know."
He paused and continued, "However, since our sincerity has been expressed, I wonder if you..."
"I can give you the information from Country M." Lu Tingxiao interrupted, "The equipment will have to wait a little longer, depending on our Captain Ling's recovery."
Sergei paused for a moment, then nodded slowly. "Okay. I'll listen to Captain Lu."
"So...when are we going to the lab?"
"Now." Ling Shi didn't want to wait any longer: "Captain Lu, give the information to the general."
Lu Tingxiao nodded: "Okay, wait for me."
He walked back to the room and after a while, he took out a thin stack of papers.
Sergei stared at the stack of papers and said with a smile, "Thank you very much. Huaguo is a friend worth making."
Just as he reached out his hand, Lu Tingxiao moved the paper away: "Don't worry, General, I'll give it to you when we get to the lab door."
Sergei raised his hand awkwardly in the air: "Ah, yes, yes."
He turned around and said, "I'll take you there."
Ling Shi had already been waiting at the door. As he walked out, he asked, "No one will stop us this time, right?"
"No, no," Sergei said, waving his hands. "General Pushkin has issued strict orders. Sidorov dares not cause trouble again."
Ling Shi and Lu Tingxiao walked out of the yard with Sergei, and quickly arrived at the entrance of the research institute.
Sure enough, this time the entrance was empty and no soldiers came to block the way.
There was only a tall and thin man in a white coat waiting for them at the door.
"Dr. Colon," Sergei greeted the man. "Did General Pushkin send you here?"
Dr. Colon nodded slightly: "The General asked me to assist with the experiment."
To put it bluntly, these were people sent by the state of Ohio to monitor them.
"Okay." Sergei turned to Ling Shi and said, "Dr. Ling, you are both spiritual beings, so we should have something in common."
Ling Shi stared at Dr. Cologne, searching his mind for memories of the past.
Cologne... He seemed to have heard this name somewhere.
"Dr. Ling?" Dr. Cologne looked at him. "I have the general's permission to remind you of a few things."
Without waiting for Ling Shi's response, he continued, "First, I can show you the dragon horn, but don't touch it."
"Second, return it as soon as possible after watching it. Half an hour is enough."
"Third, if you don't understand something, don't ask me. I won't answer."
"If you have no objection, please come into the laboratory as soon as possible."
"Hey," Lu Tingxiao took two steps forward and glanced at Dr. Cologne. "Is there anything you don't understand that you can't answer? Can you answer it?"
At this time, Ling Shi remembered.
Lawson had mentioned the name Dr. Colon once.
Someone with a higher cryptogenic index than Dr. Steven.
It seems that this Cologne is the most powerful spiritualist in the state of Ohio.
Sure enough, Cologne glanced at Lu Tingxiao with a look of arrogant disdain: "Steven said that Dr. Ling's cryptocyte index is 35%?"
"I'm a bit higher than him, at 37%, so naturally I know more than him."
"35%? Are you kidding?" Lu Tingxiao scoffed. "We Chinese are very positive and progressive, unlike you Ohioans who are always complacent."
"These are outdated statistics, yet you're bringing them out for serious comparison."
Cologne frowned slightly: "The data of the Psychic changes very slowly, unlike the Dragon Warrior..."
"That's your Ohio psychic," Lu Tingxiao interrupted, "but not a genius like our Dr. Hua Guoling."
He pursed his lips at Ling Shi and said, "Show him the data. Do you still care about his pitiful self-confidence?"
Ling Shi raised his arm unhappily and glanced at the wristband.
Seeing this, his arms shook uncontrollably.
He forcibly grabbed his left arm with his right hand and barely controlled the trembling of his body.
At this moment, two words popped up in his mind: "Fuck!"
Oh shit!
Oh shit!
What's going on?
Is this wristband broken?
How could the data increase so much?!
The glimpse he just took showed that the visible cells were 94% and the hidden cells were 75%.
Is this data that humans can evolve?
The hidden cells actually broke through the second level!
Ling Shi's heart was pounding, but his face remained calm. "Sorry, Dr. Colon, the last time I tested it, my hidden cells were already at 41%."
Cologne was stunned: "Impossible."
"The growth of cryptogenic cells has always been..."
"Don't believe it?" Lu Tingxiao interrupted him impatiently: "Ling Shi, show him..."
"No need." Ling Shi subconsciously covered his wristband: "Whatever Dr. Cologne says is what it is."
He didn't continue discussing the topic and walked directly to the laboratory door. "However, the right to study the Dragon Horn has nothing to do with my hidden index. It was obtained by us in exchange for the data from Country M."
"Dr. Colon, can you open the door?"
Cologne looked at Ling Shi suspiciously, then at Lu Tingxiao.
The latter also looked at Ling Shi suspiciously.
"Hurry up." Ling Shi knocked on the door.
Colon had no choice but to open the laboratory door and said, "Come in."
As soon as Ling Shi walked in, he saw the dragon horn placed on the experimental table.
This piece of dragon horn bone is a right arm, similar to the left arm of Hua Guo.
Before he even got there, he already felt that strong sense of calling, forcing him to move forward and forward.
It was not until he stood beside the experimental table that Ling Shi discovered that this right arm was thinner than Hua Guo's.
He put on a pair of latex lab gloves and began to examine it carefully.
"Hey!" Cologne came over and tried to stop Ling Shi from touching the remaining dragon horn bones.
Lu Tingxiao stepped in front of him and handed him the paper. "This is the information from Country M."
"We Chinese are different from people in Ohio. If you don't understand something, feel free to ask."
Dr. Colon's face turned grim as he snatched away the stack of papers. He took two steps away and sat down on a nearby chair.
The two doctors calmed down and did their own things silently.
Lu Tingxiao also sat down not far behind Ling Shi, looking at the other person's focused eyes on research.
Once Ling Shi calms down, his whole aura is different.
If his role as vice-captain of the White Eagles was a swift cheetah, then his genius as a researcher was a calm hawk. When still, he was as steady as a rock, his eyes sharp and bright, as if nothing else mattered except what he saw.
If I could be looked at so intently by eyes like this...
Lu Tingxiao suddenly felt a little envious of the dragon-horn arm.
He just watched quietly for half an hour.
Until Dr. Colon came running over, shaking the stack of papers in his hand and asking, "Captain Lu, is this only half the information you gave me?"
"That's not how you talk about it when you're negotiating a deal."
Lu Tingxiao slowly raised his eyes and asked in a long tone: "Really?"
Dr. Cologne was irritated by his attitude: "Of course! You Chinese..."
"Hey, hey, hey," Lu Tingxiao said, "Don't bring this up to China's level. This is my personal decision. It has nothing to do with other people..." He glanced at Ling Shi next to him slowly, "...It has nothing to do with it."
"What about the other half of the information?" Dr. Colon rustled the papers in his hand. "Hand it over."
"Don't worry." Lu Tingxiao stood up. "Once we finish studying the dragon horn, we'll naturally give you the remaining half."
After saying that, he walked straight towards Ling Shi without waiting for Cologne's reply.
Ling Shi had noticed their argument and had overheard it all. Seeing Lu Tingxiao approach, he put down the dragon horn bone fragments in his hand and placed them in the matching box. He said to Lu Tingxiao, "That's enough for today. Let's go."
Dr. Cologne cursed from behind: "You Chinese...shameless!"
Lu Tingxiao picked up a chair and threw it back without even looking.
There was a panicked shout from behind, and then silence.
As the two walked out of the laboratory, they saw Sergei walking towards them with a smile on his face and a very enthusiastic attitude: "My two little brothers, General Pushkin is hosting a banquet tonight to welcome you."
Lu Tingxiao narrowed his eyes: "Welcoming party?"
"I've never heard of international cooperation starting with quarrels, then ordering others to work, and finally a welcome banquet."
"Isn't the order a bit reversed?"
Sergei's smile froze for a moment, then quickly returned to normal. "Well, Captain Lu, the previous dispute was mainly caused by a misunderstanding between General Sidorov and you. General Pushkin said that tonight's banquet was held so that he and his two subordinates could apologize to you."
Hearing him say this, Lu Tingxiao smiled: "Is it to make them apologize to us?"
He paused: "Isn't it for something else?"
Sergei pretended to be serious: "That's why you are wrong, Captain Lu."
"If we really want to cause trouble, we can call up a whole platoon and storm your residence. Is there anything we can't find?"
"Isn't this for the long-term friendship between Ohio and China?"
Lu Tingxiao smiled and nodded: "Okay. Ohio has chosen to be friendly, so we must cooperate."
"Let's go," he patted Ling Shi, "give Pushkin a favor and go have a bite of their disgusting bread."
