The unraveling of the mystery of the "Tyrant" virus has opened a new door for Todd in the evolution of superpowers.
After understanding the working principle of Tyrant, Todd decapitated all the previous experimental mice and began to focus on the practical application of the Tyrant virus.
First, select several commonly used superpower bacteria from the "Superpower Library", such as regenerative bacteria, weakening bacteria, see-through bacteria, light-concentrating bacteria, fast bacteria, etc.
Then put these bacteria into petri dishes and inject the tyrant virus.
Take regenerative bacteria as an example. When its DNA fragments are extracted by the Tyrant Virus and an evolutionary gene is generated in the virus nest, its regeneration effect is increased to an incredible intensity.
It would be more intuitive to use in vivo experiments to illustrate.
Todd first transplanted this evolved regenerative bacteria into the mutated white mice, and then cut a slit in the belly of the white mice. The experimental subject with the "enhanced regeneration" ability regenerated almost as fast as
Wherever the blade cuts, the wound heals instantly.
Todd then removed one of the mouse's thighs with a scalpel, then aligned the removed limb with the wound on the subject's leg and connected it. When the sections of the severed limb touched each other, a surprising scene occurred.
Tissue healing occurred on both sides of the wound, and the severed thigh finally regained its function.
Through this experiment, Todd discovered that the Tyrant Virus can optimize the genes of super-powerful bacteria and evolve into more powerful superpowers based on the effects of its original superpowers. For example, the original regeneration superpower can only slowly
Wound healing was performed, but it was powerless against broken limbs and mutilated organs. However, the enhanced regeneration ability not only greatly accelerated the regeneration speed, but also allowed for the connection of limbs and the reshaping of organs. This discovery allowed Todd to see the alien army.
The dawn of upgrade to the alien weapon.
After completing the bacterial evolution experiments in sequence, Todd learned from the experimental results that the regeneration power can evolve into enhanced regeneration power, and the weakening power can evolve into enhanced weakening power. This is true for perspective, focus, speed, etc.
After completing the experiment on supernatural evolution, Todd had a bold idea.
If you just place the super-powered bacteria A and the tyrant virus together, you can get the enhanced super-powered bacteria a+.
So, what will be the result if two different super-powered bacteria, a and b, are placed together with the tyrant virus?
Thinking of this, Todd selected see-through bacteria and light-concentrating bacteria from the "Superpower Library" and made these two microorganisms the subjects of the next experiment.
Light-concentrating bacteria are distributed inside the dermal tissue of the human body. They can store the light energy irradiated on the skin inside the bacteria, and then release the light energy under the stimulation of the nervous system; see-through bacteria are present inside the human eyeball.
It can emit special wavelengths that can penetrate weak obstacles and use the principle of ray feedback to image.
Todd was very interested in what would happen if these two bacteria were put together with the tyrant virus.
Three microorganisms, namely see-through bacteria, light-concentrating bacteria and tyrant virus, were placed in the same petri dish. After some waiting, a brand new unknown bacteria was born in the tyrant's virus nest.
After injecting the brand-new bacteria in the petri dish into the mice, Todd squatted in front of the container and quietly waited for the moment when the unknown bacteria took effect.
Although he has taken complete protective measures in the laboratory, for example, the container for storing the experimental subjects is made of tempered glass, and a flame-throwing device is placed above the container to facilitate mandatory "disinfection" of the experimental subjects in an emergency.
.But everything that happened next was far beyond his expectation, and it cost him a heavy price.
A white mouse transplanted with unknown bacteria woke up and opened its eyes after sleeping for a period of time. Two hot laser rays suddenly shot out from the eyes of the experimental subject and penetrated the container. Stand not far away and carefully observe the experiment.
Todd, by accident, was unable to dodge, and a big hole was burned into his clothes by these two high-temperature rays.
Todd was about to start the "disinfection device" in a hurry, but he saw the experimental rat turning its "eyes" to the wooden rack where the materials were stored.
Looking at the burning direction of the laser beam, Todd yelled: "No!"
The experimental rack where flammable materials were placed was instantly ignited by the laser rays. With a loud bang, the entire laboratory suddenly burst into flames and thick smoke billowed.
Todd, who hurriedly transformed into a monster form, rushed into the fire scene and began to deal with the experimental subjects, put out the fire source and clean up the scene.
After half an hour of busy work, this sudden experimental disaster was finally handled properly.
However, one-fifth of the experimental materials were burned, a large number of experimental subjects were affected by the fire, and the entire laboratory could not be used again in a short period of time. Fortunately, the "Amber Stone" and all the Tyrant samples were not seriously injured.
Sitting on the floor of the laboratory, Todd looked at the body of the culprit of the disaster in his hand and smiled bitterly. He never thought that transplanting an unknown bacteria that was fused and evolved with the tyrant virus could actually cause such a situation.
serious consequences.
He found a half-burned notebook that had fallen to the ground, and Todd wrote on it one stroke at a time:
1. The Tyrant Virus can recombine and optimize the genes of a single type of heterogeneous bacteria, greatly enhancing the effect of its bacterial heterogeneity.
Second, the Tyrant Virus can extract two or more superpower genes, combine and evolve into a brand new superpower gene.
Third, the evolutionary abilities generated by the Tyrant Virus can only be transplanted to the mutated successors.
After writing the third article, Todd suddenly stopped writing because he discovered a serious problem.
Looking at the entire Muxi City, there are only one and a half surviving mutated successors in the true sense. That one is naturally Todd, and the other half is Jerome, the seventh in line for the "Legion of Strife".
However, the Tyrant Virus and the evolved bacteria it generates can only be transplanted into mutated successors; and the mutation of the successor will cause the collapse of body functions and damage to the nerve center. Even if the mutation is successful, the successor
He will also become a monster who only knows how to kill.
These two premises are like a pair of contradictory causes and effects, trapped in a permanent vicious circle.
In other words, looking at the Tyrant Virus and the evolutionary abilities it brings, looking at the entire Twilight City, there is currently only one person who can actually use them - Todd.
