Lanno, who was sent to the countryside, also changed himself to a pseudonym at this time, called Mendel. However, he did not start his research from peas, but first studied the world's staple food, wheat.
When he actually came to the field and looked at the green wheat seedlings, a question suddenly appeared in his mind. Xiao Ke and the previous emperor had always believed in their own time travel, until the emperor came to the moon. Until Xiao Ke came to Qie
Cornobyl.
Only then did they realize that they had not traveled through time, but had been hung in a cocoon and slept for thousands of years. But if they really think about it, they can easily find the problem. The food crops in this world are still wheat and rice.
Corn, potatoes, and meat are still sourced from cattle and sheep. Women workers in the factory still weave cotton cloth and plant cotton. Soybeans are used to extract oil. From these plants, various delicacies are made.
In terms of animals, it is not difficult to tell that there is almost no difference between this place and the earth.
At most, there were some extra extraordinary creatures, which was equivalent to modding the earth. At that time, the two of them had no doubt that they were on the earth. They were probably too deeply influenced by various literary and artistic works on time travel in the 21st century.
Yes, I subconsciously ignored such obvious details.
Lannuo collected some tissue samples of wheat from the farmland, and then observed them with a microscope he bought with a lot of money. There were already microscopes in this era. Although Emperor Russell was on the mechanical side, with his character, he had this
The technology in this field will definitely invent things like microscopes and telescopes. It will also tell people in this world that most living things are made of cells.
So medicine in this world has developed to the point where surgery can be performed, and some people already know it. Plagues often originate from invisible bacteria and viruses. Compared with the real Victorian era, the mortality rate of surgery is much lower. That
At that time, I didn’t even know that I needed to wash my hands and disinfect before surgery. Even if I knew, I didn’t have the concept of performing a surgical operation.
Now, although the operation is still performed in a church, and the operation process is like a large-scale performance, with a large number of spectators watching, at least the venue will be disinfected with alcohol, and the medical staff will wear clean clothes.
And perform all-round disinfection of surgical tools and your own hands.
The mirror-grinding craftsmen in this world are already quite skilled. Although the optical microscope looks different from the one in the Earth Laboratory, with the main body being a wooden frame, the effect is almost the same. It can magnify objects hundreds of times while still maintaining a clear picture.
After observing many wheat plants, Lanno was convinced that there were traces of modification through genetic technology, and some shapes were not what grass plants should have at all.
And what's very interesting is that these special traits are very intact, and they don't look like hybrids with natural wild species after tens of thousands of years of reproduction.
"This means that there may be a mystery hidden in history. The seeds used by humans in this world are not domesticated by themselves from the wild state, but are high-yielding crops that have been domesticated by humans in the 21st century.
" Lan Nuo kept this matter secretly in his heart, and one day in the future, he might be able to find the truth.
"It is possible that not all human beings will be extinct when the end comes. I remember that most of the earth in parallel worlds have gene pools of earth species in regions such as the North and South Poles..."
Thinking of the species gene pool, Lan Nuo's mind couldn't help but buzz: "Why are there vampires in this world? Why are there dragons? Why are there elves? Why are there giants? The conclusion that Xiao Ke originally discovered was the tomb of the Giant King's parents in Silver City. They
Buried in the mausoleum are the bodies of ordinary people.
Therefore, he concluded that the Extraordinary characteristics affected the mutation of human beings, thus mutating into various different races.
But the Dragon Clan seems to be a bit nonsense. In the evolutionary history of creatures, the Dragon Clan and the Beast Clan have parted ways just after a few animals landed. They are really not close relatives. And with such a wide variety of mutations in humans, will it be possible?
Is it related to the gene pool of species left behind?
A researcher from Chernobyl fell into the Sea of Chaos. After climbing out, he immediately became a god and became one of the strongest men in human history and the creator of Silver City. So is it possible for someone who sticks to the gene pool of a species to somehow
By chance, combined with the genes of the species you protect, complex species were born?"
Lan Nuo put aside his conjectures about archaeological excavation and other work. When he has enough ability to lead a fleet by himself, he will try to explore the southern continent Antarctica. Now his top priority is to get familiar with himself.
Ability after becoming a cultivator.
He now has a lot more knowledge about planting in his mind. It can be said that he is self-taught. He knows how to farm, such as when is the most appropriate time to release the water from the paddy field when planting rice, and when is the best time to harvest wheat.
It can prevent wheat ears from falling to the ground due to a strong wind, or how to rotate soybeans and other crops.
It's a pity that he already knows this knowledge, and he even knows much more than this. After traveling through so many worlds, Lan Nuo has not only engaged in industry, but also farmed a lot of times.
As for the extraordinary abilities he acquired at this time, on the one hand, he had strong physical fitness. Like a hexagonal warrior, his physical fitness was fully enhanced. After all, farming requires strength, at least before the invention of mechanized equipment.
On the other hand, he has a certain ability to predict the weather, knowing when it will wind and when it will rain. As for biology, he has received very few bonuses and has no ability to directly change the growth of crops.
, but it can roughly estimate the growth of different plants.
In other words, before a plant blooms or bears fruit, it can roughly determine whether the plant is growing vigorously and whether it bears many fruits.
In this way, a plant can be emasculated in advance and the plants used for hybridization can be selected. Under normal circumstances, one has enough biological knowledge and has been working in the field for more than ten years, trying to improve the current food crops to an extremely high yield.
of.
But Lan Nuo knew very well that there was no time left. Unless he had the ability to accelerate plant growth like a harvest priest, or had the ability of a biologist to adjust biological genes, otherwise seed improvement would be affected by its growth.
The influence of the cycle must be based on the year. Through crossbreeding and cultivation from generation to generation, it is not necessarily the year as the cycle that can achieve the improvement effect.
"The end is coming soon, and we can't control so much. We can just go for genetic modification." Lan Nuo estimated that people in this world are not foolhardy enough to oppose genetic modification.
One of the reasons why his side of the world was so resistant to genetic modification was that not long after this technology came out, mad cow disease appeared in Europe and the United States, and avian influenza also appeared in the East. A series of plagues made people at that time have an interest in biotechnology.
Full of vigilance, Europe and the United States began to publicize the various hazards of biotechnology. At that time, the Western world occupied the absolute high ground of public opinion. What Wai Guoren said was right, so the country also followed suit, leading to the subsequent
For a long time, genetically modified technology was only allowed to be used on crops such as cotton.
Shu, a native species in China and with thousands of years of cultivation experience, eventually had to be imported. Many people who oppose genetic modification may not even know that imported soybeans account for most of our soybean usage.
In fact, they are all genetically modified. Even those who oppose genetically modified foods have most likely eaten a lot of genetically modified foods unintentionally.
During this period of observation in the fields, Lan Nuo became more and more looking forward to getting the follow-up potion from the cultivator. He found that he did not need to force digestion at all now. The potion simply digested itself in his body, or in other words, he
Everything you have done before is equivalent to digesting the magic potion in advance.
If Lan Nuo said he didn't have a heart for farming, then probably no one would dare to say he had one, so he had just taken the potion not long ago and already felt as if he had been completely digested.
Someone who had a similar feeling was Nikola Tesla, who secretly produced various mechanical weapons for the cluster in the bicycle park. After taking the generalist potion, he originally thought of using a similar method that violated the sequence principle.
To quickly and forcefully digest the potion.
But as soon as he took it, it was as if he had completed the digestion steps in advance. He had basically gained all the abilities of a generalist before he could do anything that violated the sequence rules.
And this sequence is just like the emperor complained. It doesn't have much bonus to physical fitness, nor much extraordinary ability. It is more about strengthening memory, allowing him to recall past knowledge. Of course, if it is used by others,
, you should be able to obtain a lot of mechanical control knowledge out of thin air.
This bit of knowledge is of no importance to the Lannos. It can be said that except for the part about the extraordinary world, they know all the knowledge that the God of Steam and Machinery can bestow. They even know that some of it is wrong. But it can greatly enhance their memory.
To a certain extent, limited by their bodies in this world, their huge memories cannot be fully unlocked here. Now their memory has been enhanced to a considerable extent, allowing them to recall various technical details more clearly.
"If I have to talk about extraordinary abilities, I probably have a little bit of it." Lan Nuo touched his fingers on the barrel he had processed, and instinctively felt that one side of his barrel was slightly thicker, and a certain rifling inside it
There is a slight asymmetry with the others.
This is a powerful intuition belonging to craftsmen. It can sense the errors of the parts it manufactures without relying on any measuring equipment. However, there is also a problem, that is, after these errors are completely corrected, although a mechanical
For equipment with extremely good performance, the error between each part can even be controlled at the micron level, but the size of each part is basically not an integer.
Because this ability will only tell you how to correct the errors between different parts as quickly as possible so that they fit closely with each other, but it will not help you correct it to the extent that it exactly conforms to the weights and measures of the existing world.
Therefore, if new machine tools are produced in this way, even if the precision is high enough, it will be difficult to fit in with the equipment under the original industrial system. This is one of the reasons why it is difficult to mass-produce things produced by craftsmen.
However, the things Lan Nuo can now make by hand cannot be mass-produced. After being successfully promoted, the things he can make by hand become even more outrageous. For example, individual rockets, in terms of pure destructive power,
This thing is close to the normal attack of a demigod.
However, if you really encounter a demigod-level transcendent, the range of this thing is still too close. When facing a transcendent of this level, two kilometers is a relatively safe distance. Most of the extraordinary abilities of demigods have difficulty in affecting the range.
Beyond this limit.
Sniper bullets were slightly less lethal to demigods, so Lan Nuo rolled a few wire-controlled missiles with his hands. With the ability of a generalist, his bare-handed processing accuracy increased, although there was no semiconductor-related
Front-end technology, but the circuit system can be used to reluctantly replace the chip to achieve remote control of the missile. Anyway, it is wire-controlled. It is possible to control the tail of the missile through the circuit and let it adjust the flight attitude.
.
In order to facilitate the control and reduce the pressure on the flight control system, Lanno did not design a missile that spins forward in mid-air after flying out, but a cruise missile that is more similar to a drone. After being launched,
When interrupted, a pair of small wing-like things will pop up to maintain balance, and the control method is similar to controlling a drone.
However, there is no camera. The launcher needs to rely on visual inspection to lock the target. When using it, it must be used with a telescope. It is a very crooked technology. It is not the copper wire or the propulsion that limits its launch distance.
It depends on the capability of the transmitter, but the visual distance of the launcher. Even if it is launched from a commanding height in a city, and with a telescope, it is already quite difficult for ordinary people to aim at a target two kilometers away.
But the emergence of this thing means that the Lannos have truly threatened the ability of demigods. If it were purely controlled by ordinary people, then demigods would probably be able to avoid it with their physical abilities, but if it were them, then
Demigods basically have to use their own life-saving substitute abilities, such as finger substitutes, mirror substitutes, or space jumps, in order to escape.
And if they really launch an attack, it will definitely not be one person, but multiple people working together to make the missile fly to the target in a relatively short period of time. Even if they use the life-saving substitute ability, they will still fall.
