The convoy was like a rattlesnake, dragging its dusty tail forward in the sea of ​​sand.

More than ten hours later, several green iron trees and cactus that were rising above the ground, which was originally covered by yellow sand, appeared on the ground.

An observation park surrounded by iron pillars and wire mesh appeared in front of the convoy.

The entire observation park is not large in size, just the size of a football field.

In addition to transporting scientific researchers, the convoy also transported some daily necessities. After entering the observation park, the staff inside immediately welcomed them.

The Observation Park has seven staff members.

A director, a chef and life staff, four security and cleaning staff, and a lizard expert.

After unloading the supplies, the convoy returned home, leaving behind scientific research experts from six countries and translation assistants. Harem, who was responsible for greeting and entertaining the team members, completed his mission and followed the convoy back.

The lizard expert in the observation garden is named Danding, who is in his thirties.

Due to geographical reasons, Danding, like all young people in Yan Country, has been able to maintain sufficient sunshine and dark skin, which has accelerated the aging of her skin. She looks like a person in her forties and is mature and stable.

The leader of the group is Bach, a physicist. He looks like he is in his fifties in his forties. Fortunately, he has a strong beard and looks very energetic.

After getting to know each other, Rashid, as a senior of the support team, acted as the captain, and he made a request to the director Bach:

"We are all curious and want to go and see the bigger lizards right away."

"Can!"

Mach nodded, made a gesture of invitation, and walked towards the backyard.

A group of nine people walked through the iron net shed. Before they could reach the backyard, they heard bursts of roars.

The sound was not loud, but it was accompanied by a breath of nasal cavity, which sounded like a giant roaring in a low voice.

The aid team members couldn't help but tremble in their hearts, thinking that this must have been sent by the lizard. If so, then... how big is this lizard?

As Director Bach led the way, he entered the backyard and saw a row of iron cages.

Each iron cage has a serial number, and there is a lizard inside.

Arrange from small to large according to the sequence number.

The first iron cage, the lizard in the locked area, looked like a normal lizard, with a volume similar to a loach, and was only three inches long.

The lizard in the second iron cage is about the same size as a carp weighing three pounds.

...

Starting from the fifth iron cage, the lizard locked inside was obviously big, almost similar to an adult corgi.

"Well, this one...is it...a lizard?"

Wei Caron pointed to the sixth iron cage, put his hands on his forehead, and his face was full of headache:

"Certainly it's not a cub crocodile?"

As the cage number increased, the corresponding iron cage became larger and larger. When the team members looked at the sixth iron cage, they were all deeply shocked by a reptile exuding glaze in the cage!

It was the first time Tang Qi saw this mutated lizard, and he was shocked on the spot.

The crocodile has been seen, and the small crocodile has also seen it, but this lizard, which is the same size as the small crocodile, still has several obvious differences:

Although this lizard is big, its belly is obviously not a horizontal and flat belly like a crocodile, but it is a normal cylindrical belly.

The second is the scales, which are not as big as crocodile. The scales of the crocodile are in the shape of earth blocks and are concentrated on the head and spine. In addition to the scales on the head, this lizard has a relatively even distribution of scales on its body.

Third, common crocodiles appear gray-brown and earthy yellow, while this lizard appears with oily yellow, dark gray and dark red, and the shiny stripes formed by the three colors of oily yellow, dark gray and dark red. Under the light, it even turns into a glaze that will be produced by the glaze.

...You can be sure that it is not a little crocodile! It seems that it is a mutated lizard!

Tang Qi touched his chin, leaned closer, and looked at it carefully.

Suddenly, the mutated lizard suddenly opened its mouth and shot its tongue at Tang Qi like an arrow.

Tang Qi was startled and retreated backwards in a conditioned reflex.

But the speed is still slower-

Fortunately, there was an iron net across it, and the apricot red tongue did not ejaculate at Tang Qi, but hit the iron net.

The lizard's tongue was stained with a slight amount of saliva, which hit the iron net and splashed. Tang Qi, who was frightened, breathed a sudden breath, and the splashed saliva was immediately sucked into his nasal cavity...

...It smells like fishy?

Tang Qi was stunned, not realizing that just now, he accidentally sucked the secretion of the small molecule of the lizard in an instant.

Small molecule secretions enter the respiratory tract, reach the lungs, along the branched bronchials of the tree to the alveoli, and then enter the lung circulation from the alveoli. Between the inhalation and inhalation, the lungs and the heart exchange qi and blood. Small molecule secretions mix into the blood system from the heart, and then use the heart's pulse pump pressure to transport them all along the blood vessels, enter the major organs and tissues in the body, and also enter major functional systems.

"Have all these six lizards mutated?"

Zach, who had a beard, pointed to the iron cages and asked the director Bach.

Bach nodded and shook his head:

"Except for the first one, the other five have all mutated."

Bach added:

"We have been observing the changes in the first one, but it seems that there has not changed in the past half month. In contrast, the other five lizards have significantly changed in size, especially the sixth one."

“What inspection projects have been set up now?”

Rashid asked.

"Please follow me."

Bach led the aid team into an office next to him.

This is a very simple office, with few tables and chairs, which makes it look spacious.

On the iron mesh wall opposite the centralized desk, there are several small blackboards lined up in a row, and each small blackboard has different inspection projects written on it:

Project 1: Examine the regional limitations of mutated lizards. Purpose: To determine whether lizards that are separated from the source of neutrino irradiation will continue to mutate.

Below are follow-up results, as well as keywords for each stage, and side tasks.

Project 2: Examine the lizards in the neutrino irradiation source. Objective: To determine how lizards establish a mutation mechanism with Mars.

There are also follow-up results below.

Tang Qi noticed several keywords: roar, direction of Mars, time point.

"Is the neutrino irradiation source here?"

Tang Qi couldn't help asking.

"No, I can't be here."

Bach said with his finger outside:

"It's more than fifty kilometers west of the observation park. It's the landing point of the Mars rover. We have built an observation park No. 1, and this one is the observation park No. 2 under our feet."

"Is Observation Park No. 1 built within the range of the neutrino irradiation source?"

Tang Qi asked again.

"Yes."

Bach replied:

"The No. 1 Observation Park also imprisons several lizards to compare with the lizards here. It turned out that the lizards in Observation Park No. 1 became much faster."

Bach's words made the players look at each other.

"Does it mean that if a mutated lizard continues to be exposed to Martian neutrinos, the mutation speed will be accelerated?"

Weikaron asked with his hands on his forehead and continued to look like he had a headache.

"We have reached this conclusion in advance and are now in the verification stage."

Bach Daw.

"Everyone, we will start a new project research right away."

Rashid thought for a moment and then said:

"Divid three groups. The first group studies how Martian neutrinos arrive here and the causes of the connection between earth and fire. The second group, how the lizard's genes are rewritten. In addition to lizards, will the neutrinos have a mutant effect on other organisms, especially for us humans. The third group, how to stop lizard mutation, can it stop lizard mutation and prevent lizard from becoming larger."

The original project of the observation park was stopped, but the results will be utilized.

The first group is led by neutrino expert Vecaron.

The second group is led by genetic gene expert Rashid.

The third group is responsible for the cytology expert Fujiwara No Marry.

Other members will be selected at will according to the group leader of each group.

"Do you still need to think about it-"

Tang Qi made suggestions to Rashid:

"Does mutated lizards have an infectious ability to infect other normal lizards, even other creatures, and make them mutate, such as humans?"

“Good suggestions,”
