    Without thinking, Professor Huang counted his family treasures with his fingers: "First, we optimized the genes of the locusts and eliminated all useless genes. Secondly, we added more than a dozen new genes to the mouth and stomach of the locusts based on the specific structure of the mutated insect pulp.  A variety of biological enzymes and improved specific components of the digestive juice ensure that the digestive system can decompose the mutated insect pulp as quickly as possible. By the time the digestive system begins to absorb it, the intact insect pulp molecules will no longer be absorbed, thus naturally avoiding the mutated insect pulp.  Problem; Finally, we have artificially set a genetic lock on the locusts. Once they are interfered by external interference, the genes of the locusts will completely collapse. "Professor Huang's explanation is simple and easy to understand, even people who don't know much about genetic engineering can understand it.  **Never leave ten.  Ye Fei did not immediately believe Professor Huang's words, but asked directly: "Have you done experiments on what you said? Can you ensure that there will be no accidents during actual use?" Professor Huang was slightly startled and hesitated.  After a while, he looked at the locust behind the glass wall and replied: "It's basically finalized, but we need to conduct a few more experiments to determine whether it meets the design standards." Ye Fei nodded with a straight face: "There is no such thing in the world.  It¡¯s a foolproof thing, so I won¡¯t say anything nonsense about how it must be foolproof, but I believe that you all can see it without me saying that this kind of creature will be used as a biological weapon on the battlefield in the future. If it is put into the battlefield, the problem will be discovered.  The trouble is huge. Problems that can be solved in the laboratory must be solved in the laboratory, even if they are put into the battlefield later." Professor Huang exchanged a look with several other companions and said in an extremely positive tone.  : "Minister, you can rest assured on this. A few of us have been studying the genes of cosmic creatures here since the war between the exoskeletons. Although we have not solved all the problems yet, as long as we are given a little more time, we will definitely achieve the design.  "I look forward to this day coming soon!" Ye Fei said solemnly.  If the situation were different, no matter who said this sentence, others would find it funny, but at this time, it seems so appropriate that all the researchers feel hot in their hearts.  At this time, the large locust behind the glass wall had already chewed off a section of the top of the small insect column.  Ye Fei couldn't help but get closer and observe carefully. The chewing locusts didn't care at all about the eyes on him, and ate them as if no one else was watching.  Ye Fei nodded his chin at the locust: "Can it eat so much in one go?" With the naked eye, the size of the insect pillar is about half that of the locust. Even if this locust has been genetically modified, it may not be able to eat so much.  It's impossible to eat so much in one go.  Several researchers laughed together, and Professor Huang explained while laughing: "It can be eaten, and there is no problem at all!" Ye Fei was so surprised that he couldn't help asking: "How did you do it?" Professor Huang proudly said  Laughing loudly: "Actually, it's not difficult at all. Nature is the best teacher!" Ye Fei turned around to look at Professor Huang in surprise: "How do you say it?" The veterinarian coughed in time and reminded Professor Huang not to get carried away, but Professor Huang  It seemed that he didn't hear it, or he pretended not to listen, and explained with a smile: "In addition to the achievements I just mentioned, we also added some other useful gene fragments into its genes, such as its  The digestive system adopts part of the genes of flies. "Flies?" Ye Fei asked, "What's so special about flies?" "Even ordinary people don't know about flies."  It only takes seven to eleven seconds from eating, absorbing, and expelling waste from the body. It is a standard method to eat and eat at the same time. This feature is conducive to the subject eating in large quantities and eating quickly." Ye Fei's eyes almost exploded: "It's so fast.  ?¡± After saying that, he stared at the locust¡¯s butt in shock, but there was no sign of defecation.  "Uh, what, the experimental body has added the genes of cosmic creatures. Therefore, the volume has expanded thousands of times. After the increase in volume, its digestion speed has also slowed down a lot. It takes about six and a half minutes from eating to excretion. This  This is the limit of what we can do now." Only then did Ye Fei realize that he had gone astray again.  He nodded and asked: "You just said that this thing has a genetic lock. Will any genetic mutation cause gene collapse?" "One hundred percent!" Professor Huang said firmly and firmly.  "What about reproduction?" Ye Fei asked, "The distribution range of parasitic insects is too large. We cannot and do not have the ability to create tens of millions of locusts to put into the battlefield. We can only rely on their own reproductive capabilities to gradually expand their distribution range.  , will the genes of the larvae collapse after the female and male worms combine?" "Of course not." Professor Huang replied without thinking, "We have already thought about this.When we arrived, we also conducted relevant experiments. A total of seventy-six experiments were conducted, and 2,739 eggs were obtained. All of the eggs failed to hatch.  "The expectant expression on Ye Fei's face suddenly froze, but before he could speak, Professor Huang continued to explain: "But this problem is actually easy to solve. We added some ant and bee genes to the experimental subject to give it  With the ability of parthenogenesis, each offspring of the experimental subject is equivalent to its clone. This not only solves the problem of reproduction, but also solves the problem of genetic collapse of bisexual reproduction.  To be honest, the reason why the genes of the experimental subjects are so easy to collapse is not only due to the genetic lock, but also because the DNA of the experimental subjects is mixed with too many genes from other species.  " Ye Fei nodded as if he understood: "I don't ask about the process, only the result!  " This is the first time he has heard of the word parthenogenesis. Although he does not know the exact meaning, he can roughly judge the meaning of the word from the literal meaning. There is no problem in understanding. "We guarantee that the finished product after the final experiment is complete  Meet the design requirements!  "Professor Huang smiled slightly and answered confidently. Ye Fei, who was in a good mood, couldn't help but joke: "Are you so sure?  " "Of course!  Professor Huang replied proudly, "If you don't believe me, ask someone else!"  " Several other researchers immediately stood up to speak. Everyone's opinions were the same as if they had been unified in advance. They all dared to issue military orders to Ye Fei! Ye Fei was very surprised: "How can you be so confident in such a complex artificial creature?  "    "complex?  "Professor Huang and others were all stunned. The veterinarian slapped his forehead and almost called him mother. Ye Fei knew something was wrong as soon as he saw everyone's expressions. He looked around in confusion and smiled at himself: "Am I making trouble again?  What's the joke?  "Professor Huang gave two heavy fake coughs: "You are not in our field, and you have no understanding of genetic engineering. It is not surprising at all to say a few layman's words.  Ye Fei said shamelessly: "Get up wherever you fell. Tell me where I made a mistake."  Professor Huang smacked his lips and said, "That's right."  It is actually not difficult at all to create experimental subjects. Although we have done a lot of experiments, they were all completed in the past month" "Then what were you doing before?  "Ye Fei asked in astonishment. "Of course it is to study parasitic insects and mutant insect pulp!  "Professor Huang replied matter-of-factly, "It couldn't be easier to combine the genes of heterogeneous organisms. We have done it many times over the years, but if we want to create a suitable combined organism, we must first thoroughly study the parasites and mutant worm pulp!  "    "Understood!  "Ye Fei suddenly realized. Strictly speaking, the gene splicing in Laboratory No. 1 has been studied for decades. Any type of biological battleship is the result of gene splicing. Professor Huang added: "We have never figured it out.  We can think of using artificial methods to create natural enemies for parasitic insects, why can't the light tribe think of it?  " "I don't know about this.  "Ye Fei replied, "Normally, I should have thought of it a long time ago. Maybe it's because my skills are not up to par.  " "How is that possible?  Another researcher surnamed Shi couldn't help shouting, "It's not like the people of the Light Clan can't even find a single biological civilization, right?"  The genetic technology of biological civilization is certainly no worse than ours.  " "That's not necessarily the case.  "The veterinarian who never had a chance to interrupt said, "There are specialties in surgery, even if the genetic technology of biological civilization is better than ours.  But can you guarantee that they also have the ability to study insect pillars?  " When everyone heard this, they all showed thoughtful expressions. Although the veterinarian's words were just guesses. But if you think about it carefully, you have to say that these words make sense. " Biological civilization, whether spaceships or battleships, all use living things as carriers, that is,  Said that if they want to study mutant insect pulp, they must first obtain mutant insect pulp. Once the biological battleships and biological spaceships of biological civilization come into contact with this deadly thing, they will probably mutate. In this way, biological civilization will be wiped out.  The only way to study mutant worm pulp is to rely on technological civilization. The problem is that few technological civilizations have made any achievements in genetics.  . Races like humans that relied on technology and made great achievements in genetic science are not so rare, but they are not everywhere. This time, they came up with the method of artificially creating natural enemies by accident.  Other races in the Light Alliance may not have thought of this, but they just lack the corresponding technical capabilities. ¡°Come on, don¡¯t even study this.  "Ye Fei said, "It's all other people's business to do whatever they want. Let's just sweep the snow off our house."?.  " Knowing the result he wanted to know most, Ye Fei didn't want to disturb him any more. After a few words of encouragement, he and the veterinarian left the laboratory together. The two chatted for a few more words, and Ye Fei hurriedly  He hurriedly returned to the Xinyuan and led the fleet to leave Betelgeuse. In the blink of an eye, another two months passed, and the time entered September 2229. Laboratory No. 1 finally produced an experimental body that could be put into actual combat. Ye Fei.  After receiving the report, I was extremely happy. I personally arranged the manpower to send these locust larvae to the expeditionary force, requesting the expeditionary force to put the locusts into the planet as soon as possible and obtain first-hand actual combat information on how to combine the locusts. The expedition received the order.  The army did not dare to neglect, and quickly selected a planet that had not yet had time to clean up, and threw half of the locust larvae onto the surface of the planet to serve as experimental subjects. In order to ensure that the recorded information was detailed and reliable, the planet selected by the expeditionary force was a planet with suitable  A planet with a living environment to ensure that these little locusts would not die due to the harsh environment. As for the other half, they were given a real desolate planet to try. In the blink of an eye, another few days passed, and the expeditionary force's experiment was carried out.  The report was finally sent to the headquarters. Ye Fei didn't want to look at the boring comparative data and looked directly at the final results of the report. Whether it is a habitable star or a desolate planetary environment without an atmosphere, Locust One can adapt immediately and has no problems with eating.  Big, but there was also a little accident. The problem with the experimental body on the habitable star is that the locust itself does not have strong defense or attack capabilities. In order to watch the performance of Locust 1, the fleet did not clean up the ecosystem on the planet in advance.  As a result, the locusts that landed on the ground were besieged by a large number of mutant creatures. They jumped on the insect pillar and were annihilated in the siege by the mutant creatures. The situation on the desolate planet was actually very good!  The number of locusts is too small, and the insect pillars are too tall. It took three days to gnaw at not one stone pillar. It is suggested that more locust bodies must be released in the next step to inhibit the growth of the insect pillars.  Without saying a word, the problems discovered during the experiment were forwarded to Betelgeuse and handed over to Laboratory No. 1 for solution. Within a few days, version 1.1 of Locust No. 1 was released. The main improvement was to add pigment to the skin of the locust.  cells to improve the camouflage ability; the second is to add the genes of poisonous spiders and add venomous fangs to the two jaws; It is said that Laboratory No. 1 also wants to continue to add some aggressive genes to Locust No. 1, such as adding a mantis knife  But the veterinarian decided against all opinions and decided to only make a few improvements that are easiest to implement, and other improvements can be studied slowly to avoid delays. The improved Locust No. 1 will be put into the battlefield again, although the combat effectiveness is not much stronger.  , causing most of the locusts to die in the battle with the local creatures, but the toxins on Locust No. 1 also played a very important role, poisoning a large number of local creatures protecting the insect pillar. The remaining locusts swooped on the insect pillar.  They went up to feast, and it didn't take long for them to start breeding the next generation. Half a month later, huge swarms of migratory locusts swept across the entire planet, eating up all the plants wherever they went, even if they lost their lives.  .  This result made Ye Fei very satisfied, and he immediately ordered to strengthen the cultivation of Locust One and put more Locusts into the battlefield as soon as possible.  To this end, Ye Fei plans to turn several resource planets used to cultivate biological warships into bases for cultivating Locust One.  However, just when Ye Fei was gearing up and working hard, the accident happened again.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
