Xu Jiaye was dumbfounded: "Mr. Qin, is it so serious? Don't be alarmist!" He wanted to grab Professor Qin's ears and yell, please look at who you are talking to and stop talking nonsense, okay?
"I just said it casually." Mr. Qin immediately distanced himself irresponsibly.
Brother No. 1 asked seriously: "Mr. Qin, do you have any evidence? Or other proofs will do."
Although the first brother thinks Mr. Qin's words are a bit alarmist, Professor Qin is so old and is engaged in biological research. He should not talk nonsense at such a time. He may have discovered something.
In terms of biological attainments, Brother 1 will definitely not be able to catch up with Mr. Qin even if he tries to flirt with others, but in terms of sensitivity, even if all eight of Professor Qin are tied together, they will not be even half as good as Brother 1.
"I discovered something..." Mr. Qin obviously hesitated.
Xu Jiaye was so anxious that he could not wait to rush into the screen and replace Mr. Qin.
Just as Brother Yi was about to speak, Mr. Qin had already opened his mouth and said: "The function of the expanded virus may not be giantization, but targeted high-speed evolution."
Brother Yi and Xu Jiaye were stunned at the same time. They didn't expect Mr. Qin to say such a thing. Xu Jiaye kept urging: "Mr. Qin, can you finish what you have to say together?"
"I don't know what to say." Mr. Qin grinned, his expression uglier than crying, "It's a special evolution to deal with danger... Let's put it this way, insects are not big and encounter many dangers. After becoming giant,
, the animals that could have preyed on bugs have become food for bugs, that’s probably what it means.”
Brother No. 1 was confused when he heard this: "Mr. Qin, I don't understand what you mean. Does this have anything to do with what we are talking about?"
"Of course there is." Professor Qin said, "In the past, boxer ants could rely on their numerical superiority to hunt large prey, so there was no need to evolve to become stronger. But now, they have found that they are no match for humans and want to become more powerful, so they have knife ants."
…”
Xu Jiaye wanted to strangle Professor Qin to death. What nonsense is this? Are you talking about fantasy novels? Are you stupid for studying ants? Which ant is God?
"I understand what you mean, I will consider it carefully." After speaking, Brother Yi turned his attention to Xu Jiaye, "What do you think of the professor's opinion?"
Brother Yi also felt that these words seemed like making up a story, but as the head of a country, he didn't even have such grace.
Xu Jiaye hurriedly made amends: "Chief, Professor Qin is too immersed in research and is stunned. Don't take it to heart."
Professor Qin stared and wanted to speak, but he heard Brother Yi say: "I didn't ask you this!"
Xu Jiaye's heart suddenly trembled. He was about to say that it was simply unbelievable, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back quietly.
Brother Yi brought this up specifically because he definitely didn't want to hear him say useless nonsense. Did Brother Yi really believe Professor Qin's lies?
Whether you believe it or not, in short, don’t just say random things!
Thinking of this, Xu Jiaye replied: "The professor's statement is a bit sensational, but half a year ago, who would have told me that insects could grow as big as they are now, I wouldn't believe it either."
"Then do you think the giantization of insects is an evolution?" Brother Yi continued to ask.
"It's hard to say, but evolution always develops in a direction that is conducive to survival, or the goal of evolution is to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. From this perspective, the giantization of insects is indeed in line with the characteristics of evolution." Xu Jiaye is not a biologist.
, but those who are close to vermillion are red, and those who are close to ink are black. If you have more contact, you can still learn a little bit.
"That means that the situation mentioned by the professor is indeed possible?" Brother Yi's face turned serious.
"I can't say it's not possible, but I personally think it's impossible to achieve it in a short time." Xu Jiaye said cautiously.
Professor Qin argued: "If insect gigantism is evolution, then it is not surprising that giant insects continue to evolve at a high speed in order to compete for more and better living environments."
Brother Yi was suddenly stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly.
Xu Jiaye was a little dizzy: "Chief, what do you mean..."
"Even if there is only one percent chance, we must take it seriously. Don't ignore the potential danger just because the chance is small." Brother Yi said solemnly.
Although reason tells Brother Yi that boxer ants are not Zerg, at least they are unlikely to evolve into Zerg like those in science fiction movies in a short period of time, Brother Yi does not dare to ignore this possibility, which has a very low probability but is extremely dangerous.
A butterfly flapping its wings may cause a storm. Only a ghost knows what the final result will be if an accident occurs in the ant nest.
Brother Yi was extremely resolute towards the roots of this kind of chaos. He must kill the wrongdoers without mercy, and it would be best to kill them directly in the cradle.
It’s enough for the earth to have humans, Zerg? Just go die wherever you go!
"Professor, I know you can't rush your research, but the situation is serious. I must ask you and your team to shift the focus of your research to the boxer ant and find out the situation of the boxer ant as soon as possible."
"It should be." Professor Qin agreed, but his eyes were a little distracted, as if he was hesitant to speak.
Brother Yi encouraged: "If you have anything to say, just say it."
"There is another important discovery that has just been discovered." Professor Qin seemed to be saying a tongue twister. "We are analyzing the genes of the boxer ant. After comparing the genes of the boxer ant and the boxer ant, we found that the genes of the two organisms are very different.
They are so big that they don't look like the same species at all, but according to military information, boxer ants and broad-bellied boxer ants not only live together in the same ant hole, but also share food with each other. This is a phenomenon that only occurs when they belong to the same ant colony.
"
"What exactly do you want to say?" Brother Yi couldn't help but ask.
Professor Qin took a deep breath: "We found some gene fragments in the genes of boxer ants and broad-bellied boxer ants that belong to other species, including humans."
This news was so shocking that Brother Yi thought for a while before confirming the meaning of the words, and couldn't help but asked in confusion: "I don't understand what you mean."
"Boxer ants...may...have the ability to absorb genes from other species." Professor Qin said.
"You're kidding, how is this possible!" Xu Jiaye couldn't help it anymore, "Have you read too many science fiction novels? I just read a novel that if you eat the meat of an alien cow, you will be assimilated by the alien cow's genes.
Have you ever seen it slowly transform into an alien cow?"
"No..." Professor Qin's expression was unusually calm, "But I know a powerful creature called the tardigrade. One-sixth of its genes come from other species. The advantage of us humans lies in wisdom and technology. The water bear's
The advantage is super adaptability and the ability to control DNA."
"Control DNA?" Xu Jiaye's expression was distorted, "Are you kidding me?"
