"Professor, the modeling is complete."
Zero's electronic synthesized voice rang out from the side, and at the same time, a blue holographic projection appeared in front of everyone.
The lung structure of the mouse is clearly shown on the projection.
“Zero, add the pulmonary tube, the location is in these two places.” As he spoke, Lü Yongchang pointed in the air with his hand.
The next moment, two pulmonary tubes appeared in the lung model.
"Simulating the scenario of deep-sea fluid injection."
In the holographic projection, deep-sea fluid was slowly injected into the lungs of a mouse through a pulmonary tube, gradually filling the entire lung.
"Stop!" The moment the mouse's lungs were filled with deep-sea fluid, Lü Yongchang suddenly spoke up: "Zero, simulate the flow of deep-sea fluid near the alveoli in detail."
The image inside the holographic projection quietly magnified, and the dense alveolar structure of the mouse's lungs appeared before him.
Looking at the state of the deep-sea liquid inside, Lü Yongchang muttered to himself, "Just as I thought..."
"Brother Mao, look."
"Although the pulmonary duct is constantly being filled with fresh deep-sea fluid, it can only replace the fluid near the pulmonary duct. It cannot help the deep-sea fluid in the alveoli circulate."
Mao Zhengzhi quickly walked to Lü Yongchang's side and began to observe him carefully.
"Professor Lü, the test results are in!" The researcher's voice came from the side. "The oxygen content of the deep-sea fluid near the alveoli is about 50% lower than that of normal deep-sea fluid!"
The test results undoubtedly verified the simulation results of zero.
Mao Zhengzhi's eyes dimmed instantly: "What a pity... the pulmonary tube is useless."
“It’s not entirely useless; at least the direction is correct.” Lü Yongchang smiled and patted Mao Zhengzhi on the shoulder. “It’s just that we might have to redesign a lung tube.”
"To be precise, we need to insert the pulmonary tube deeper, ideally to reach the alveoli."
"Impossible!" Mao Zhengzhi shook his head repeatedly. "The lung structure is too complex. The average diameter of an adult's alveoli is only 0.2 millimeters. Add to that the complex terminal bronchioles, and no tube can be inserted into there!"
Lu Yongchang didn't speak, but frowned as he examined the holographic projection in front of him, trying to find a solution.
After pondering for a long time without finding an answer, he could only sit back in his chair, pretend to rest, and close his eyes.
...
In the fluorescent green system space, the linear technology tree stands silently in the void.
After taking a deep breath, Lü Yongchang focused his attention on the slightly dim cursor.
A familiar feeling of dizziness washed over me.
At the same time, a "hint" popped into his mind.
Nanorobot technology
After receiving the prompt, Lü Yongchang quickly disconnected his consciousness from the system space.
Upon opening his eyes, his first reaction was to raise his wrist to check the time.
It didn't take long, only about five minutes.
He breathed a slight sigh of relief, suppressing the waves of dizziness deep in his brain, and stood up to speak to Mao Zhengzhi beside him.
"Brother Mao, I have an idea."
Are you familiar with nanorobots?
...
Two weeks later.
Inside the main laboratory.
On a clean and tidy lab bench sits an instrument that is entirely silver-white.
"Zero, start the instrument and see the effect."
The moment he said those words, a hint of nervousness flashed in Lü Yongchang's eyes.
"Yes, Professor!"
As the electronic synthesized sound rang out, the indicator light on the silver-white instrument lit up.
At first, the instrument did not seem to change at all.
But soon, a tiny white substance appeared above the instrument.
As time went by, more and more white substance appeared, eventually "growing" into a tube more than ten centimeters long!
"Fifteen minutes." Lü Yongchang frowned slightly. "That's still a bit slow."
"Professor, this is only the first generation of technology; there's still a lot of room for improvement," Zero thoughtfully reminded him.
"That's true."
Lü Yongchang laughed heartily, reached out and picked up the silver-white instrument on the lab table, examined it carefully, and said, "Zero, make a few finished products and let's test their effectiveness."
...
Biological sub-laboratory.
Mao Zhengzhi stared in disbelief at the video in front of him, which had been sped up several times over.
With a smile on his face, Lü Yongchang began to explain carefully.
"A large number of nanorobots, under zero control, form a duct that can be freely customized in shape."
"With zero control, this catheter can be opened in real time anywhere and fits perfectly to the structure of the lungs of the organism."
"In this way, we can precisely deliver deep-sea fluid to every alveolus in the hibernating organism."
As Lü Yongchang finished speaking, the sped-up video ended.
"Then...how do we take it out?"
Perhaps stunned by the sci-fi scene before him, Mao Zhengzhi blankly asked a somewhat foolish question.
Lü Yongchang chuckled: "Since these nanorobots can form conduits, they can naturally decompose and revert to the form of nanorobots."
"There's no point in saying more; just try it and see the results."
As he spoke, he took out a small, silver-white instrument from his pocket and handed it to Mao Zhengzhi, who was standing there in a daze: "Here, the nanobots inside should be just enough for the mice to use."
...
A white mouse, injected with hibernation hormone and in a state of suspended animation, lay sprawled on the experimental table.
What should we do?
Holding the silver-white instrument, Mao Zhengzhi swallowed hard and asked Lü Yongchang nervously, "What preparatory measures are needed?"
Lu Yongchang chuckled and pointed to the tip of the white mouse's nose: "Just place it over there, facing the nose directly."
"Get as close as possible; if you put them too far away, the amount of nanobots might not be enough."
The silver-white instrument was placed on the tip of the mouse's nose. Perhaps because of Lü Yongchang's reminder, Mao Zhengzhi pressed it tightly against the mouse's nose.
"Zero, let's begin."
"receive!"
The indicator light on the silver-white instrument surface lit up quietly.
Hundreds of millions of nanobots swarmed out from the front opening, stacking up to form a long, thin conduit.
As the white lung tube slowly slid into the mouse's nose, Lü Yongchang began to explain softly.
"Considering that this is something that will be used inside the lungs, I specifically used a softer material."
"With the addition of emergency procedures, even if the pulmonary tube is pulled forcefully after it has been formed, it will not cause too much damage."
Looking at the white lung tube, Mao Zhengzhi subconsciously rubbed his slightly itchy nose and asked in a deep voice, "How long will this process take?"
"It will take about half an hour at the moment."
"With technological improvements, it might be possible to speed it up to about ten minutes."
"Of course, the ultimate goal is to complete this series of operations within tens of seconds or a few seconds."
