"Mr. Gu, would you like to give it a try? It may be of some use to your mental state."
After successfully persuading Gu Haiming, Xia Xu was not stingy and directly handed over the bag of super brain medicine.
"There's no need for it now. Let's just save one and try it when I get sick."
Gu Haiming smiled, only took one and put it away.
The two discussed issues such as remuneration in detail. Gu Haiming was easy to talk to in this regard. He only asked for sufficient funds for experiments and other aspects, but did not mention salary and other aspects. Xia Xu said it was what it was.
Later, Gu Haiming also took the initiative to take Xia Xu to visit his laboratory.
In fact, it is a simple laboratory renovated in the basement. It looks relatively simple inside, but all the necessary equipment is available. Only some high-end equipment that is difficult to purchase is missing or extremely outdated.
At this time, Xia Xu also asked the question that had always been in his heart: "Dr. Gu, did you pick up a used modified serum syringe before?"
"Syringe? Oh, you mean this, right? There is indeed such a thing."
Gu Haiming patted his forehead and found a syringe.
It's not that fancy, it's just an ordinary plastic needle syringe. The only iconic thing is the tree-like LOGO engraved on the plastic needle barrel.
"I picked this up when I was sick, but I picked it up because I probably subconsciously recognized this symbol."
Gu Haiming explained: "This is a syringe produced by a medical device company owned by Andela. Although it is also sold externally, it actually has little market share. It is mainly used internally by Andela."
Xia Xu nodded slightly and asked, "Dr. Gu, you should have done some research on the contents inside, right?"
"What's inside is a special gene-editing virus, carrying a genetic fragment that looks like a bat, and then some unknown biological serum, which contains a lot of nutrients and ingredients that accelerate the rate of cell division and differentiation..."
Gu Haiming became more energetic when he mentioned this, and explained it to Xia Xu for a long time in a clear and logical manner, and finally concluded without saying anything: "Obviously, this is a gene fusion technology that is not very mature, but I saw werewolf creation in it.
The shadow of technology, according to my analysis, the success rate of this modified serum is very low, but..."
"But have you seen the media reports on Batman in Germany recently?"
Xia Xu said playfully.
"That's right."
Gu Haiming nodded his head.
The next plot is actually easy to guess.
According to news reports, Yao Fu did not behave like ordinary people, and he even called himself Batman. Gu Haiming also picked up a used bat gene fusion serum syringe, so he naturally connected the two subconsciously.
If coupled with the 'coincidence' of encountering Yao Fu, the Batman in the report, lying on the roadside, there is no reason not to pick it up.
"Dr. Gu, are you sure you can replicate this modified serum?"
Putting the plot aside for the time being, Xia Xu asked the question he was most concerned about.
"I'm afraid not, at least it won't be possible in a short time. This modified serum actually uses a lot of unannounced cutting-edge technologies."
Gu Haiming shook his head with a wry smile: "Take this gene-editing virus as an example. It seems to be a strain specially cultivated by the Andela Group, and is called Scalpel.
But this has been iterated for who knows how many generations from what I know, and it also has an encryption mechanism that prohibits self-replication. Unless the strain from their base can be obtained, this first step will not work.
Then we have to analyze the gene fragments carried inside, which can provide a large amount of nutrients and accelerate cell differentiation, etc..."
Grain worm
"That means there's no chance at all?"
The disappointment on Xia Xu's face was beyond words.
"Unless you can get the same Scalpel strain, or you provide me with sufficient funds and manpower, I can conduct research from scratch with reference to this sample and some of the techniques I have mastered, but this will take time."
Gu Haiming also shook his head regretfully: "And to be honest, the success rate of this transformation serum is actually horribly low. It may be difficult for even one of thousands of people to be able to integrate smoothly. That kid outside can integrate so perfectly and purely."
It’s a miracle.”
The child he was referring to was of course Yao Fu. Apparently he had made some attempts after picking Yao Fu back last night.
"Okay then, I'll try my best to think of a solution regarding the virus strain."
Xia Xu nodded slightly and said, "However, Dr. Gu, you shouldn't have gained nothing during this period of time, right?"
He remembered the mysterious medicine that Gu Haiming was supposed to give to Yao Fu in the original plot.
"You also know this?"
Gu Haiming was really shocked this time, and he looked around in his laboratory a few times, as if he was wondering if he was being monitored.
After all, he was secretly thinking about this matter himself, and there was no other person who knew about it.
How can you know this? Are you afraid that you have installed hundreds of cameras to spy on me, a bad old man like me?
"Well, you know some special intelligence channels that cannot be mentioned."
Xia Xu explained in a deep voice.
As for the plot, the intelligence channel he used to deceive Gu Haiming just now was indeed referring to this, so naturally he continued to push it to this point.
Gu Haiming did not struggle with this aspect. The more Xia Xu showed his magical powers, the happier he became. He replied: "In addition to extracting a small amount of residual serum and virus from the syringe, I actually also found a very small amount of already
Modified blood cells, these blood cells have extremely strong vitality.
And I accidentally discovered that they seem to have a violent reaction to a certain special protein in the human body. In theory, the modified person can temporarily burst or even permanently enhance their physical fitness after being injected or even taken with this protein. However, this special protein cannot be synthesized, and
Only a small number of people have it in their bodies..."
"Special protein?"
Xia Xu's cheek twitched.
He thought about his destiny.
The reason why he and his original body were tragically reduced to supporting roles in "Hunter" was because their bodies contained special proteins that only a few people possess.
Werewolves use this thing to activate the wolf enhanced serum.
Why on earth does the Batman use this thing as a seed blasting potion and a great tonic pill?
Don't tell me that these two are the same thing, otherwise I will become a walking, weakened version of Tang Monk Meat?
Unfortunately.
The answer is yes.
How can there be so many similar special proteins in the human body? After Xia Xu took out the information related to the special proteins in the wolf enhanced serum and compared them, it was found that the two were purely the same substance.
The only thing he is thankful for now is that he was not born in some messy fantasy world. This rare physique with special proteins cannot be discovered at a glance, nor can his strength soar after just one bite. Otherwise, he might
You really need to prepare a coffin and tombstone for yourself in advance.
Wait, let's talk...how did the werewolves of Star City hunt them accurately?
