Chapter 243 Virus?
Jinhui City is more than ten miles outside the city.
Night shrouded the jungle, and a demon was sleeping on the ground. He fell asleep and died.
A flash of lightning flashed, and Ji Xing, who appeared here, cut off one of its claws and returned to the direction of Jinhui City. With the universe fully open, he easily avoided the sight of patrolling hunters and night walkers, and returned home smoothly.
This kind of action is actually quite risky. As long as you do something, the risk of exposure will increase accordingly, but now there is some necessity to take risks.
Xiao Ai had been waiting for him in the laboratory for a long time. When Ji Xing came back, she immediately took the demon's claw in a container and started operating it with Ji Xing in tacit understanding.
After a while, after completing the sampling and separation, she and Ji Xing came to the microscope to watch.
"That's true."
Under the observation of the two, the demon's DNA and Ji Xing's DNA are roughly the same concept. They are both single-stranded circular DNA and double-helix DNA.
The difference is that Ji Xing's double helix DNA is the state that normal humans should have, while the demon's double helix DNA is in a state of being destroyed and dissolved!
"It can be temporarily judged that after the demon eats the human brain, it is in a state of completely replicating all the DNA information of the human being in the body. The single-stranded circular DNA belonging to the demon binds the human DNA in a slowly digested state. "
Xiao Ai said: "Because of the complete replication of DNA, the demon can change into this person's appearance, and even possess this person's memory and personality. This can be regarded as an advancement in cloning technology.
Beyond the embryonic growth stage, an exact copy of the person is directly created. "
Is there any science in fantasy?
Ji Xing thought: "The DNA belonging to the people he eats is in a state of being continuously destroyed and digested, turning into nutrients to strengthen the monster. When it is almost digested, the monster will have a strong desire to eat people and eat people again to replenish it. "
"This probably also explains why people with 'willpower' and 'strong feelings' can hold on to demons for longer. Just like Yi Nan's mother you mentioned, her love for her children suppressed the demon's consciousness, allowing the demon to Her digestion became slower until it broke due to an accident and she couldn't hold on for a moment."
Xiao Ai said: "There should be many such examples on this planet, but no one has discovered the principle."
"I am a special case. The demon can't digest me at all, so I remain in the state of being a demon and a human being." Ji Xing said.
"It's not necessarily a special case." Xiao Ai shook his head: "The planet is very big, and maybe there are situations similar to yours. This is a world with superpowers and superhuman beings, and it completely replicates people's thoughts and ideas. So it In essence, he is still this person, maybe there is a way not to be digested. "
Ji Xing looked thoughtful. Today's discovery gave him a lot of ideas and reminded him of many doubts that he had ignored before.
The demon eats people and replaces them. It always replaces the new ones it eats. But what about the people it has eaten before? Can they still change into the appearance of the people they ate before? What about memory character?
When a monster grows to a high-level monster, it will probably eat dozens of people or even more, or it will eat more than one hunter. The number of monsters eaten by a big monster is even more exaggerated, but I have never heard of them having hundreds of people. Faces and more.
After the previous person is completely digested, in what state will it be reflected in the single-stranded circular DNA belonging to the demon?
More detailed exploration is needed...
"Okay, Xiao Ai, I'm tired today." Ji Xing shook his head, the arc of his fingertips turned the demon parts into powder, and said, "Let's wash up and sleep first."
Xiao Ai yawned, nodded, and walked to the bathroom with Ji Xing.
…
In the next period of time, they checked the DNA of the middle demon, the upper demon and even a big demon one by one.
It wasn't until Luo Sheng complained while drinking that the monsters in the wilderness outside the city didn't know what was going on recently. They seemed to be fighting for territory, and made him work overtime several times, before Ji Xing stopped.
Just one last risky experiment: he dug out an underground secret room deep in the mountain forest, captured a high-level demon, and locked it in.
Of course, he would not feed this high-level demon human brains. He would only maintain the life of this high-level demon with human food. He wanted to see that when the human DNA was digested, only the demon's single-stranded circular DNA remained. , what it would look like.
Human food tastes tasteless to monsters, but upper-level monsters already have wisdom. Naturally, at first, they cursed and begged for mercy, and later even cried bitterly.
But demons have no human rights.
Ji Xing will even use the method of traumatizing it to accelerate the dissolution of human DNA, on average once every three days, recording the changes of the upper demon.
After about a month of this, the upper-level demon lost its mind and degenerated into a confused lower-level demon, with only desire to support it.
The double helix DNA belonging to humans gradually decomposed completely. Another month, when Ji Xing went to the cave to observe the monster, he found that it had disappeared!
It wasn't someone who found it, rescued it, and killed it. The chains that bound it were still hanging there intact.
It simply disappeared, turned into something invisible, and disappeared into the macroscopic world!
Ji Xing collected some nearby soil and went back to check it. After seeing the results, he was silent for a long time and said to Xiao Ai: "Let's stop the experimental exploration in this area first. Don't go into it further. Wait until I become stronger. Restart."
Become stronger and explore again!
There is that kind of circular DNA in the soil!
Xiao Ai, who led the experiment throughout the whole process, naturally knew what "the essence of the demon may be a virus" meant. After hearing this, she washed her hands silently, looked at Ji Xing's heavy expression, and raised her head.
"Then before the next project, Boss Li, will you give me a holiday?"
Ji Xing smiled: "Compared with the two of us, I am more like an assistant, right? You have the final say on what to do and when. Let's go shopping, Dr. Ai?"
Xiao Ai smiled and stretched out her hand.
The two of them relaxed for a few days, playing games at home, wandering around the streets, and Ji Xing also let Xiao Ai go back to the science world to rest for a few days.
If you can create a body, you should be able to cancel it. A month after Xiao Ai came, although she didn't mention it, Ji Xing would of course consider that she missed her sister or was worried about her sister worrying about her.
So Ji Xing experimented with Gin.
Created Gin's body, and then canceled it, successfully, and then tried to create it again.
Let Gin die and come back to life several times.
Ji Xing found that the Gin body that was created several times after the invasion was still the original identity, and had the memory of the last time, without loss.
Or the only loss is starlight.
Then naturally we can try to let Xiao Ai go back.
So from then on, Xiao Ai would go back to the Science World for a few days like she was on a family visit. When she invaded, the time ratio between the two sides was one to one. There would not be much risk for Ji Xing to cover up for her for a few days.
And because she left more and more traces in this world, the starlight required to create the artificial body each time she repeatedly invaded was also increasing.
But it was only a few hundred thousand.
Now Ji Xing is least lacking in starlight!
It can even be said that Ji Xing is already a little distressed by the growing starlight.
It takes 1 billion starlight to light up four stars.
And to enter the three and a half stars world, the starlight required is between 300 million and 700 million.
Now his starlight has climbed over 600 million, and he is about to reach 700 million. If it exceeds 700 million, he will not be able to enter the three and a half stars world!
And Fairy Tail is still offline.
The starlight collection is not enough for five stars. After climbing 90% of the four stars, it increases very slowly.
So he even hoped that the airship would bring starlight a little slower, and he didn't make any small inventions in the past year. But things didn't go as planned. His starlight finally climbed over 700 million bit by bit, leaving behind the three-star and a half world!
He didn't know whether repeating the creation of the artificial body and brushing the starlight back below 700 million would give him the option to enter the three-star and a half world again, and he was a little entangled about whether he had to invade the three-star and a half world.
Maybe he should follow the "will of heaven" and try not to enter the half-star world, but let the initial status of the next four-star world be greatly improved? Try this identity upgrade that has never been tried before.
Moreover, the half-star world can only get 100% of one benefit. Now there is the function of promotion and capture, and there is time to invade the three-star and a half world. Maybe capturing a two-star or three-star world can bring more benefits?
Wait until the end of Fairy Tail to decide.
Next, he and Xiao Ai continued to live peacefully in the Demon Continent, starting new experimental projects and directions, not exploring the roots of demons, but only exploring how to turn Ji Xing back to human, and how to only destroy the "Demon Ring".
Time continued to move forward while they worked together to study.
Ji Xing's accumulated starlight gradually approached 800 million.
One day, Dunan Isbadli, who was offline in the Fairy Tail continent, finally responded!
There are still two chapters today, it will be late.
