Chapter 190 Reproduction
Growth, stillbirth.
These two completely incompatible words are merged together because of the undead.
Lidya Su frowned.
Even so, you still want Chen Shanshan to have a baby?
Zhu Yang took a deep breath and said, "The genes have merged. The fetus in her belly is one with her. It has even become her main heart. Whether she can give birth or not is not up to us."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Shanshan in the laboratory suddenly picked up the knife on the table and stabbed himself in the stomach and heart frantically. The bright red blood instantly sprayed all over the room, and the composite glass where Su Xiao was standing was also stained. Just like that, Shen Shanshan fell down.
Su Xiao wanted to rush in, but Zhu Yang stopped her and asked her to wait and see.
After waiting for a while, Shen Shanshan got up from the ground and slapped his stomach frantically, making a sharp sound.
"You monster! Get out of me!"
Seeing Shen Shanshan become like this, Lidya Su’s heart sank.
Zhu Yang said: "Before the mother gave birth, the genetic blood is shared with the fetus, so Shen Shanshan is also an immortal now."
No wonder.
No wonder those women in the safe houses can survive the doomsday even though they are pregnant.
"The fetus is dead but is still growing. Only Shen Shanshan is weak. After the fetus is born, a complete genetic body that is a fusion of undead energy and humans will mature, and Shen Shanshan will die." Zhu Yang said slowly, "We don't know what the outside world has become, and how many hidden undead have begun to reproduce in secret. Maybe there are more than you and I can imagine."
Before the end officially arrives, the final figures show that there are still hundreds of millions of people left.
They haven't heard any statistical notifications for a long time.
But now they can't test whether the other party is immortal by whether they will die.
But after a pregnant woman gives birth to a child, she will die, and the child is just a container, a container for the consciousness of an immortal person.
Lidya Su knew that Zhu Yang would not bring her to see Shen Shanshan for no reason.
Take out a pen and paper and write down a line: What can I do for you?
Academician Luo, who was standing behind Zhu Yang, was slightly surprised.
He has studied everything about Lidya Su.
At the beginning of the apocalypse, Su Xiao was selfish like most people and did not consider the future of mankind.
But this is understandable, because everyone thinks that the end of the world will pass, and the first thing to do is to find a way to keep themselves alive, which is also a kind of continuation.
But Su Xiao has a special case. The environment in which she grew up and the harm caused to her family, parents, and herself by humans have happened more than once.
Her level of belonging to humans should be very low.
But now she actually asked them what else they could do for them.
This is a big change.
"We need an immortal, preferably a male, who has no main god power in his body before the transformation." Zhu Yang made the request, and said it clearly, "They use the wombs of human women to reproduce on the Blue Star. We need to use their gene fusion technology to allow humans to embark on a milestone in evolution."
evolution?
Not only Su Xiao, but even the group of researchers following Academician Luo didn't know.
"Evolution? What evolution?"
Academician Luo said slowly: "This is the direction we discussed privately. I haven't had time to tell you that every change in the era not only represents the extinction of the race, but also the change of the environment. Fish are the earliest early forms of vertebrates, but in the face of the environment they will gradually evolve into amphibians, reptiles, mammals and birds."
Zhu Yang nodded: "There are mermaids in the mountains and seas, they are immortal and never grow old, they cry and their blood feeds people. This is a legend, but now for us, it may no longer be a legend. The blue planet will return to the ocean, and if humans can evolve, perhaps we will evolve into fish living in the sea."
"Fish?" Someone was surprised. "Then, aren't we degenerating? How can we call it evolution?"
"Degeneration is when humans lose the ability to survive and hunt, just like a lion kept in a zoo." Academician Luo has his own theory. "Evolution means that humans have not lost their wisdom, but have not only adapted to the new environment, but have also mastered the most advanced energy technology."
"Then are humans still humans?" someone asked.
Zhu Yang said, "Humanity has never been a shell of an animal. Facing the apocalypse, we are just an endangered species. In the history of biology, all animals will evolve in the face of environmental changes. But no matter what we evolve into, as long as we think of ourselves as human, we are human. Whether we are mermaids or apes, we are still ourselves as long as we carry on the civilization of our race. Perhaps in the future, it will not be us who call apes our ancestors, but apes who call us our ancestors."
The undead have tried to reproduce as humans, so do they care what they become?
Now humans are given only two choices.
Either extinction or evolution.
"Once the goal is set to do this, it means we will need to conduct countless experiments, which will require countless test subjects." Someone frowned.
Countless experiments mean the sacrifice of countless test subjects.
Moreover, it is a dangerous and intimate reproduction experiment.
Academician Luo was leaning on his cane and before he could say anything, Zhu Yang said softly, "I'll do it."
Lead by example.
Hearing this, Lidya Su couldn’t help but wrote down his doubts: “You didn’t ask Shen Shanshan?
Su Xiao even speculated whether Shen Shanshan became like this because she became an experimental subject in District 17.
But Zhu Yang was very calm.
"I did ask, but I think it was a lie."
Su Xiao originally thought that what Zhu Yang meant was that there were no details about reproduction, but he did not expect that Zhu Yang gave another theory.
"The undead are currently in a conscious state. They can occupy human bodies and gain human memories. In other words, they exist similar to a stream of consciousness. The symbol of human survival is a living being. The characteristic of a living being is that there are blind spots in consciousness perception and it can be deceived."
"For example, when human eyes stare at a red pattern for a long time and then switch the pattern to black and white, the eyes will automatically complement the color, and the first thing the eyes see is light green."
"As for the sense of smell, if you stay in a very bad smelling place for a long time, you will get used to it after a while. This is the adaptability of the sense of smell, but it is also deceptive. Not smelling a bad smell does not mean that the odor molecules do not exist."
"From this point of view, I think Shen Shanshan's statement that she was bullied was a deception of her consciousness by the undead. Different species generally have reproductive isolation. Since they are conscious beings, how can they directly use the bodies of ordinary humans to reproduce? So they must have used some kind of energy and human gene fusion technology on her."
The cognition in Su Xiao's mind was opened up by Zhu Yang in another way in an instant.
This theory is well-founded and impeccable.
No wonder he is one of the top scientific researchers in the world.
