Chapter 1991, mutant beast
"The conversion process lasted for seventeen hours, twenty-three minutes and fifty-one seconds, and the conversion failed."
The hyena's transformation failed, causing all the researchers to sigh. Then each one of them lowered their heads, picked up a pen, and started writing quickly on the document board in their hands.
Each of them had their own items that needed to be recorded. The researcher who finished recording first turned around and looked at Luo Ji, who had been standing behind them since unknown time, looking at the hyena in the cage. His expression
Obviously stunned.
"This person shouldn't be from our research institute, but why does he look familiar?"
With this thought in mind, the two of them blinked and looked at each other for a full two or three seconds before looking at Luo Ji's half-smiling face. Before the young man could react, the researcher from the institute behind him
Chang, the moment he turned his head, he had already screamed out...
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Why are you here?!"
While speaking, the director quickly pushed away the young man who was frightened by his "Your Majesty", then walked up to Luo Ji and bowed in two steps.
During this period, other researchers who were also shocked also followed suit and saluted.
At this moment, the young man who also reacted was undoubtedly panicked.
"It's over, it's over..."
Recalling the stupid thing he just did, he actually looked at His Majesty for several seconds with a very disrespectful look. If this was investigated, it would be considered a serious crime of disrespect!
Thinking of this, the young man couldn't help but feel even more panicked.
But in fact, Luo Ji didn't take that little thing seriously at all. While gesturing for everyone to excuse themselves and continue working, he approached the director and learned about the current research progress.
As mentioned before, although this extremely dark pool has the ability to mutate living things, once the transformation fails, there is only one way to die.
Luo Ji had just confirmed this with his own eyes.
For the sake of the stability of civilization, it was obviously impossible for Luo Ji to do such a crazy thing.
But it would be too much of a waste to leave such a special five-star natural wonder there. So Luo Ji simply invested a sum of money to establish this research institute, specifically responsible for studying this extremely dark phenomenon.
Zhitan's dark matter hopes to find ways to reduce risks and increase the success rate of transformation.
Of course, it is obviously impossible for a research project like this to achieve results in a short period of time.
And this is indeed the case.
Although there are many organisms that have successfully completed transformation in this research institute, the researchers have no idea what the principle behind this is.
You said that the stronger the physical fitness, the higher the success rate of transformation? But in their research institute, a white mouse was also successfully transformed.
As for the connection between the duration of conversion symptoms and the success rate? It’s also completely puzzling.
The transformation symptoms of the hyena just now lasted for more than seventeen hours, but finally failed.
Among the previous successful transformation cases, the fastest one only took thirty-two minutes, while the slowest one took fifteen hours. Only a ghost can discern any pattern from this.
The director's report did not go beyond Luo Ji's expectations. This was a difficult project to begin with, so he found it strange that the other party could produce results so quickly.
Therefore, Luo Ji's attention at this time was mainly focused on another matter.
"The physical fitness of these beasts should have increased significantly after completing the mutation. I want to know how effective they are now. Can they be comparable to the first-order Warcraft?"
Luo Ji's current idea is very simple. There is still a lot of dark matter produced by the Extreme Darkness Pool. If the combat power of those mutated beasts is considerable, then he can capture some harmful beasts and conduct batch operations.
Transformation.
Then during the war, throw them up as cannon fodder to consume the enemy's ammunition and troops. If they can cause clear damage to the enemy, that would be even better.
However, the director of the research institute shook his head when he heard this.
"Your Majesty, the physical fitness of these mutated beasts has indeed increased significantly, but there is still a very big gap compared with first-order monsters."
Having said this, the director of the research institute paused, and after taking a breath, spoke again...
"It should be able to withstand a few shots from a pistol, but once it is used against rifles and grenades, it will basically lose its combat effectiveness."
The words of the director of the research institute almost immediately put an end to Luo Ji's thoughts.
Now on the battlefield, among the soldiers on both sides, which one is equipped with a pistol? All of them are basically equipped with grenades and rifles. If these mutated beasts can't carry rifles, it doesn't mean much.
While Luo Ji was thinking this, the director of the research institute standing aside continued to speak...
"In addition, I don't know if it is because these beasts themselves have very low intelligence. After the mutation, the animal nature in their bones completely overwhelms their rationality, and they cannot be tamed at all. Using them on the battlefield is useless.
Be careful, or you may accidentally hurt one of our own."
"Of course, if your Majesty wants to see the combat power of this mutated beast with your own eyes, you can. There happens to be a combat test today."
Obviously, confirming the combat effectiveness of these mutated beasts is also one of the tasks of this research institute.
In this way, everyone quickly moved to another courtyard. This courtyard was a bit like a small arena. Standing on it, Luo Ji and the others could overlook the entire venue.
Later, after all the testing and recording personnel were in place, a steel gate slowly rose in the arena, and with a violent roar, a mutated hyena rushed out from inside.
As one of the harmful species, the hyena itself has a very strong body and good fighting power, and has undoubtedly become the main experimental species of the institute.
The army helped them capture them, and there was obviously more than one hyena in this research institute.
Different from the previous hyena that died due to failed transformation in the animal cage, this hyena that successfully mutated has become much stronger. Judging from its size, it looks like a violent little lion! A pair of eyes, even more...
Exuding a fierce scarlet light!
At this moment, the mutated hyena that rushed into the arena looked extremely irritable. Before its opponent even appeared on the stage, it was already running back and forth in the arena and roaring frequently. Look at that.
, his mood was obviously extremely unstable, allowing Luo Ji to confirm the fact that these mutated beasts were indeed impossible to tame.
Chapter completed!
