Chapter 264 Resonance·Youth Edition
Star Sand Store.
'Abnormal changes in gene sequence? ! '
When Chen Fan heard the alarm in his mind, his eyes widened suddenly: 'Didn't you say before that the composition of star sand would not affect the genes of organisms? ! '
[This machine doesn't know either. ]
The incident happened suddenly, and Yi's tone was also a little hurried: [This is an abnormal situation! ]
Chen Fan calmed down and looked at Olaya on the side through the mask.
At this time, Olaya had obviously progressed to a new stage:
under Chen Fan's gaze, Olaya raised his head, staring at the ceiling above his head with slightly protruding eyes, and his body began to twitch unconsciously.
Olaya's skin showed an abnormal gray, but the skin on his head showed an unusual bright blue, which looked like all the blood in his body was rushing into his brain.
Chen Fan couldn't help but flash a trace of worry in his eyes-this giant salamander head, will it suddenly explode in front of him?
Thinking of the bloody appearance, Chen Fan calmly moved his body.
It's okay to explode, just don't let the blood splash on him.
'One, what's the specific situation?'
One quickly gave an answer: [Thirty seconds ago, the nanorobot previously deployed on him sent the latest gene sequence scanning data. ]
[Compared with the previous gene sequence scanning data, this time the scanning data showed an extremely small mutation, with a change range of only about 0.01%. ]
[In order to avoid errors, the machine conducted a detailed scan again, but the gene sequence change range quickly increased to 0.03% in a very short time. ]
After a short wait, the electronic synthesized voice sounded again: [The change stopped, and the gene mutation range this time was 0.07%. ]
[The total duration of this gene change: 3.71 seconds. ]
Looking at the constantly changing images and text in the holographic projection, Chen Fan's expression also became solemn.
The cause of the gene mutation has been found.
Star sand is indeed the culprit. Every cup of star sand will cause extremely subtle mutations in the genes of the organism.
In a short period of time, this mutation will not be revealed.
But as time goes by, the mutations at the genetic level gradually accumulate, eventually causing extremely common gene mutations.
Because of this, the interstellar civilization in the Bray galaxy cannot solve the problem of gene mutations - unless they stop taking the star sand, gene mutations will continue to show up.
But...
'There is obviously no problem with the ingredients, why is this happening?'
Chen Fan asked in the mind network.
[Lack of key information, this machine cannot analyze the cause. ]
Gao Yuan and Isa looked at each other. Since Yi couldn't answer the question, they naturally couldn't answer it either.
Chen Fan silently looked at Olaya lying dead on the side.
After the most intense 3.71 seconds, his vital signs gradually stabilized.
The scan data provided by Yi showed that Olaya's brain activity had dropped back to 110% at this time.
The originally congested salamander head gradually returned to normal, and the gray-blue skin gradually returned to its original bright blue.
[This machine suggests sending the sample to the Administration for inspection. Perhaps a professional biological laboratory can find the cause. ]
Yi made a suggestion.
Chen Fan's eyes moved, but he did not accept the suggestion: "This is too inefficient." "
After confirming the existence of the broadcasting civilization, the current management bureau has become a mess. God knows how much time the corresponding detection work will take.
To put it bluntly, the Bray Alliance may fight with the Ramsey Empire at any time.
Once the two forces enter a state of war, his investigation work will inevitably encounter various obstacles!
He does not want to waste precious investigation time waiting!
Besides...
"Since the preliminary test results show that there is no problem with the composition of the star sand, will the cause of the genetic mutation be in this galaxy... or this universe bubble? "
Chen Fan proposed a conjecture: "After all, the EL13697101 universe can be regarded as a special existence. "
[Insufficient data, unable to give an accurate judgment. ]
After a moment of silence, Yi gave a response: [But this machine believes that there is a certain possibility. ]
At the same time, Isha's voice sounded in the mental network: "What do you mean..."
"Star sand is likely to be just an inducing condition? "
"The genetic mutation is not caused by the star sand itself, but by another unknown thing? "
Chen Fan was stunned.
At this moment, inspiration burst out in his mind like lightning across the night sky!
'Inducing conditions... yes, it is the inducing conditions! '
Chen Fan thought quickly.
'You say... with the rapid increase in brain activity, will these intelligent creatures be exposed to the broadcasts sent by the broadcasting civilization? '
'Just like...'
He swallowed hard: 'the researchers in the research ship. '
As soon as these words came out, the mind network fell into silence.
Gao Yuan and Isa both subconsciously held their breath, and the tragic scene they saw in the TE913 research ship emerged in their minds.
Those researchers who turned into rotten meat also had their own gene sequences collapsed.
If the situation after Olaya took the star sand is magnified countless times, will it be the dilemma encountered by those researchers? !
This conjecture is actually not difficult to verify.
Looking at Olaya who was gradually returning to normal, Chen Fan suddenly had a crazy idea in his mind.
'First, prepare to fully monitor my physical condition!'
He issued a command in the mental network.
'Fan, Brother Fan?' Gao Yuan widened his eyes slightly, 'What do you want to do?'
Under the gaze of Gao Yuan and Isa, Chen Fan sat up straight, and a smile appeared on his face behind the transparent visor.
Amid the piercing alarms, Chen Fan skillfully removed various restrictions, and finally manually removed the liquid sample storage container inside the exoskeleton armor.
Looking at the slowly flowing dark blue liquid in the container, he took a deep breath.
Amid Isa's exclamation and Yi's alarm, he raised his slightly trembling hand and poured a small portion of the star sand into his mouth.
...
It tastes good.
The moment the star sand entered his mouth, an idea suddenly flashed through Chen Fan's mind.
It was sour and sweet, and it really tasted like a drink.
Those substances that looked like quicksand did not affect the taste at all. The moment it entered his mouth, the star sand slid into his esophagus very smoothly.
[Warning! Dangerous operation! ! 】
Chen Fan curled his lips and waved his hand unhappily to close the bright red warning message in the holographic projection.
"Fan, Brother Fan?!"
Gao Yuan, who had just realized what happened, looked at Chen Fan in shock.
As for Isa...
at the entrance of Xingsha, she had already rushed to Chen Fan's side, looking at the face behind the mask anxiously: "Chen Fan! You, you..."
The movement of the three people obviously attracted the attention of the "waiter", and a blue-skinned big-headed salamander swayed towards Chen Fan's seat: "Dear guest, please keep quiet and don't affect other guests..."
"Shut up!"
Isa's expression became serious, and she turned her head and shouted at the big-headed salamander.
The atmosphere in the Xingsha store instantly became solemn.
Looking at the several big-headed salamanders with weapons rushing from a distance, she raised her right arm without any hesitation.
A deep purple light slowly lit up on the exoskeleton armor-that was the sign of the individual laser cannon charging!
The blue-skinned giant salamander who was in charge of taking orders had obviously never seen such a scene before. He was frightened by Isa and collapsed on the ground: "Guest, you..."
"Calm down."
Looking at the anxious expression on Isa's face, Chen Fan chuckled and raised his hand to press Isa's right hand: "Don't worry, I have checked the ingredients. This thing does not have many toxic side effects on the human body."
"Besides, I have also performed genetic enhancement, it will be fine."
"But, but..." Isa pointed at the still unconscious Olaya anxiously, "This fish has become like this!"
Chen Fan did not reply.
The star sand has taken effect. He slowly closed his eyes and felt its effect with his heart.
The azure holographic interface quickly emerged in Chen Fan's mind, clearly recording his physical condition at this time.
Brain activity: 120%, 130%...
Although he closed his eyes tightly at this time, a bright nebula still slowly emerged in front of him.
Chen Fan slowly opened his eyes, and a wonderful sense of clarity rose in his heart.
He noticed some details that he would not notice normally.
The subtle wrinkles on the blue-skinned giant salamander, the faint scratches and scattered dust on the ground...
a lot of details rushed into his brain frantically.
But he didn't feel any discomfort - compared with the high-dimensional information received by resonance, this amount of information was nothing.
The activity of the brain rose rapidly, the bright nebula in front of him became more and more real, and a familiar feeling slowly rose in his heart.
It was a floating feeling of floating in a zero-gravity environment.
Chen Fan, who had experienced resonance several times, instantly realized his state.
This is...
a precursor to resonance!
Sure enough, in the next moment, a vague and obscure murmur sounded in his ears.
Resonance begins!
Compared with the previous natural resonances, this artificial resonance is obviously a "youth version".
Not only did the murmur sound very light and vague, but the brilliant five-dimensional space did not appear in front of him.
And... the whole resonance process was very short.
Almost as soon as he heard the obscure murmur, Chen Fan felt that the floating feeling on his body was rapidly withdrawing.
When he regained consciousness, he met Isa's slightly red eyes.
"Huh..."
Chen Fan let out a long breath and calmed down the almost negligible desire in his body.
"It's over."
Chen Fan said to Isa in front of him with a faint smile: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
"Yi, has my gene sequence changed?"
Seeing that the expression on Isa's face gradually returned to calm, Chen Fan turned his head and asked Yi.
[...There is an extremely slight change. ]
[The amplitude is less than 0.001%. ]
[It can basically be ignored, but for safety reasons, this machine recommends that you take some time to go to the medical cabin to sleep. ]
