"Ruier, what are you going to do?" Meng Nan looked at Chen Ruier.
"The most effective method at present is still the one in the movie." Chen Ruier thought for a moment and said, "I can improve that method, and maybe I can find who is the Thing faster."
"Improve it?" Chen Song looked at Chen Ruier curiously: "How to improve it?"
"Every cell in the Thing has a strong sense of survival." Chen Ruier said: "So it is not necessarily necessary to collect blood. I think using hair can also give a rough measurement."
"Hair? That's right." Chen Song slapped his forehead: "Why didn't we think of it before?"
"Sister Rui'er, you should have said it earlier." Lin Keke also curled her lips: "It hurts to cut your hands."
"I just thought of it." Chen Ruier said with a smile: "In addition, for the sake of safety, this kind of test is only a preliminary judgment and cannot be used as the basis for the final decision."
"No, I'm not joking. Do you think it's possible that the entire Russian team is a monster?" Chen Song mentioned again: "Look, there is something wrong with that dog at first glance, but the Russians did not attack it.
, instead they targeted people like us.”
"No." Xia Wenqing shook his head: "According to the clues in the movie, there should be a limit to the reproduction and division of monsters."
"Although there is currently no evidence to show what the limit is, it is definitely not too much."
"Uh, why do you say that?" Lin Keke looked at Xia Wenqing in confusion: "Brother Xia, doesn't the Thing in the movie turn into a new Thing when it touches anyone?"
"Of course not." Xia Wenqing shook his head: "This conclusion is based on two fragments."
"First, in "The Thing", two monsters with severed hands tried to merge together."
"Secondly, in "The Thing", no one had any defense against the sled dog at the beginning, and it was able to touch everyone silently."
"Trying to fuse? I remember I saw a saying." Man Sisi said: "The Thing is a more advanced life. The fusion of two severed hands means that they have the ability to fuse the 'wisdom' gained from devouring it."
The ability to work together.”
"No, no, that statement is only half right." Xia Wenqing thought for a moment and shook his head: "To distinguish the situation clearly, the truth is hidden in the details."
"At that time, the monster had just launched an attack on the protagonist and others, and the protagonist and others had already gained an advantage and were pursuing it."
"In this extremely dangerous situation, you don't want to do everything possible to escape, but try to fuse? Is the intelligence of the Thing really that low?"
"Besides, if the monster can assimilate other life forms through a small part of the organization, then wouldn't the chance of winning by two severed hands acting independently and launching a surprise attack be higher?"
"That's true." Man Sisi nodded: "It is indeed unreasonable."
"So, there is only one truth, and that is that the monsters had to merge." Xia Wenqing pushed up his glasses.
"Have to fuse?" Meng Nan nodded: "Limited organizations cannot produce higher wisdom. Under the shroud of danger, they instinctively fuse to obtain higher wisdom and abilities."
"That's right." Xia Wenqing nodded: "To sum up, there should be an upper limit on the number of strange splits."
"In other words, the monster can only split one individual every once in a while."
"Well, it's just like the screaming beast in "Alien"." Hao Yue nodded.
While Meng Nan and others were still studying, a scream suddenly broke the silence of Antarctica.
Meng Nan and others looked at each other. This scream came from the Russians!
Meng Nan and others and the scientific research team members hurried over and saw the Russian people looking around with vigilance.
"Two people are missing." Meng Nan said in a deep voice to Xia Wenqing and others.
Everyone nodded, and it seemed that the two people had died in the hands of the monster.
"What's wrong?" Eric looked at Andre.
"Damn it, it's the Thing! It attacked us!" Andre roared.
"Raid? Have you seen what he looks like?" Meng Nan asked.
"No, Victor and Boris said they were going to get some beer, but when we heard the noise and rushed over, they were already dead!" Andre shouted angrily.
"Where's the body?" Meng Nan asked again.
"No!" Andre shook his head.
"Captain, it's them, one of them must be a monster!" Another Russian team member shouted: "They must be controlled first!"
"Yes! It must be them!" Another team member also shouted.
"Why do you say it's us? Maybe your two partners are monsters themselves?" Thomas next to Eric shouted.
"What did you say!" The Russians were immediately furious, and Thomas and others were not to be outdone.
"Wait, wait!" Meng Nan stopped between the two parties and said in a deep voice: "There must be no internal strife. This is exactly what the monster wants to see."
As he said that, Meng Nan's eyes fell on the Russian and Thomas who spoke first.
These two people may be the most suspect.
"Then what do you think we should do?" Andre also understood that what Meng Nan said was right, so he said in a deep voice.
"Our companions have just thought of a preliminary method to identify monsters." Meng Nan said: "According to you, monsters are extremely camouflaged. Then the monster's cell activity should be very strong, and the activity of each cell should be
Far more than human beings.”
"So, we thought, could we intercept part of the tissue from our body and stimulate it to see if it is the monster's cells."
"If the cell has a strong response, it means its owner is not a human."
"This is also a feasible method." Andre nodded.
"I don't agree!" At this moment, the Russian who spoke first suddenly shouted: "Who knows whether you are monsters? Who knows whether your method is effective? What if you just want to deceive us?
What should we do if we go to a place and then kill us?”
"Well, Ivankov is right." Andrei also nodded: "After all, this is your base. We don't dare to believe you too much."
"Then what do you think we should do?" Meng Nan said in a deep voice, murderous intent surging in his eyes.
"As I said before, take off your weapons and come to our place, I agree!" Ivankov shouted.
"Haha, unload our equipment?" Meng Nan sneered: "The method I proposed is the best one I can think of at the moment, but you keep blocking it. In the beginning, you were the one who tried to provoke a fight between the two sides."
"Andrei, are you sure this Mr. Ivankov is a human?"
