Chapter 809: Accommodation Test, Heading to the Far North!
Near noon, Sumo woke up from a long sleep with a slight headache.
He spent 80% of this time in a dream state, sometimes dreaming that humans controlled magical alien energy and evolved, and sometimes dreamed that this energy was actually highly poisonous, and would only show real harm once it grew stronger.
This kind of power that only exists in legends is like Pandora's box.
Standing at the threshold that was about to open, his mind was still recalling the warnings the system had given.
"Is it true that humans cannot possess this power?"
Sumo shook his head and sat up completely.
He first opened the adventurer terminal, connected to the Internet, and checked several messages he sent last night to see if there were any replies.
At this sight, his expression finally softened, and there was a hint of joy.
[Si Ming: Friend God of War, please forgive us for our previous recklessness. Your strength deserves our respect, and I think we can talk about the deal you mentioned. We are here with sincerity, and I hope you will see it later. Can reply as soon as possible]
After one night of thinking, I don’t know what the outcome of the discussion was, but looking at Si Ming’s performance now.
Su Mo probably knew that the photos and videos that Jin Yao took back last night should have played a role.
[God of War: Sincerity? What sincerity? 】
After a brief reply, Sumo immediately wanted to turn off the terminal and get up.
But what people didn't expect was that Si Ming on the other side seemed to be waiting in front of the screen. As soon as he finished speaking, the reply from the other side was sent.
[Si Ming: We are willing to use a full set of terminal manufacturing technology to exchange armor manufacturing technology with you, and we guarantee that we will let you familiarize yourself with terminal manufacturing first, and then make one yourself to verify that the information we have given is correct, and then you will The manufacturing technology of the armor was traded]
[God of War: Oh? Aren't you afraid that I won't give you the technology to make armors? 】
[Si Ming: If you have the guts to come to the Far North and come to our base camp, then of course we won’t worry about you getting the terminal technology and leaving quietly]
[God of War: So, the transaction location is in your base camp? 】
[Si Ming: Yes, Adventurer's Summit is the safest place in the entire New World. Even the minions of the three major territories would never be able to find this place in the Arctic Icefield without our guidance. Terminals are also produced here, and you can see all the manufacturing equipment and the manufacturing process]
[Si Ming: If you are worried about your safety, then you can rest assured that our Adventurer Alliance has always worshiped the strong. I can use the reputation of the alliance, my personal name of God, and you can even state the conditions yourself, as long as it is not touched. Bottom line we can all agree to that. 】
[God of War: Can you change to another trading location? 】
[Si Ming: No, trading here is the emperor's will and our bottom line. Other than that, we can agree to any request you have. 】
The emperor's will?
Seeing that Siming's tone seemed very firm and there was no room for maneuver, Somo nodded slightly.
If the other party brings terminal technology here for trading, he will be suspicious and will not believe that the three pawns of Vulcan have such great value.
But the other party insisted on trading in this far north, and when he thought of the secrets Chen Shen said before.
Sumo no longer hesitated and replied after thinking about it.
[God of War: Time, place, how do I get there? 】
[Si Ming: Huh? Are you agreeing now? 】
[Si Ming: Well, that’s not what I meant, I meant that this negotiation does not seem to be as difficult as they said]
[Si Ming: Forget it, Dongyue and the others are by your side, right? 】
[God of War: Yes. 】
[Si Ming: After the recent release of the non-attack treaty, the New World has become extremely chaotic, and we cannot use the previous methods to quickly bring you back. But all three of them have been to the Far North before and know how to get here the fastest way. But there are some points to note]
Siming was a little incoherent and sent more than ten messages to explain how to reach the far north as quickly as possible.
After saying that, he seemed a little unsatisfied and continued to add:
"When you come, you must go around the Tianyuan Territory. It is at the cusp of the storm right now and there are spies from all the major territories everywhere."
"Oh? Did something big happen?" Sumo was slightly alert.
"It's not a big deal, but there are rumors from the outside that the blood plague virus was spread by the Tianyuan territory. They have the antidote for the virus, so all the major territories are trying to verify the authenticity of this matter. Even three The big territory has sent out a lot of people now. It will be troublesome if you are discovered by them if you pass by. It is best to go around as long as you can."
"I see."
With a reply, he logged out of the network, and Sumo waved away the projection that appeared in front of him.
The fact that Tianyuan Territory was entangled with the blood plague virus was not beyond his expectation.
Moreover, even if there is no virus, the establishment of Tianyuan Port will inadvertently harm the interests of the large upstream territories. It is only normal for them to find an excuse to cause trouble.
Not paying attention to the news, Sumo got up and got out of bed. After washing, he stretched, opened the door and left the bedroom.
Suddenly, a smell of rice came from downstairs, so strong that it made people feel hungry.
"Mr. Yang, you are awake. The meal is already prepared. I will wait for you to eat it after you get up." Arthur stood at the door of the laboratory and said respectfully.
"Oh? I didn't expect you to have this skill?"
"It's not us, it's the three people you captured last night, and the woman among them cooked the food."
"Her?" Su Mo was slightly startled and hurriedly went down the stairs.
Sure enough, just as Arthur said, Jin Yaoxingjun was busy in the kitchen wearing heavy chains.
The "burly" Zhou Xun stood nearby, monitoring her every move intently.
Because of the length of the chains, Dongyue and Huo Shen could only sit in the kitchen, which looked a little funny.
When they noticed Somo approaching, the two of them quickly stood up, their expressions more respectful than last night:
"Master Zhan Yang, you're awake!"
"What are you doing?" Su Mo looked up and down with a strange look on his face.
The three of them were at least a little unruly last night, but after one night, why did they turn into such licking dogs?
"Your Excellency, you are busy with your affairs. We, as people, come here to disturb you for no reason. We should do something to atone for our sins. Don't worry, Your Excellency, we will learn the rules from Brother Beast and will not affect your normal life."
"Brother Beast?" Su Mo was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and looked at Zhou Xun, who looked embarrassed.
"Okay, you two, I'll come over here. I have something to discuss with you."
After saying that, Sumo immediately and neatly lifted the chains on the three of them and put back the electronic lock.
With Dongyue and Vulcan in tow, Sumo came to the sofa in the living room and sat down, throwing their terminals over.
"Let's see, the alliance has negotiated with me, and I will set off to the far north ice field on a certain day."
"Have you negotiated? Going to the Arctic Icefield?" A trace of ecstasy flashed in Dongyue's eyes, and he quickly opened the terminal to check the news.
Sure enough, Siming had already sent him a message, fully describing the alliance's emphasis on this deal and the new missions of the three of them.
"Oh my god, as long as we complete this task, we will be eligible to wear the second-generation Celestial Armor?"
"this"
Vulcan was shocked when he saw the rewards offered by the alliance below.
Even though their generation of Heavenly God Armor was as fragile as paper in front of the God of War's Sun-Chasing Armor.
But in front of ordinary people, they are still powerful adventurer gods, people who stand at the top of the food chain.
Now, if they can switch to the second-generation Celestial Armor, even if they are still no match for this God of War, facing those previous enemies, their strength will undoubtedly increase several times out of thin air.
"Don't worry, Lord God of War, the three of us will prepare everything as soon as possible and take you to the far north."
"We follow the ocean currents on the edge of the continent and we can reach the Adventurer's Summit in a month at most."
The enemy last night has now become one of our own.
After seeing Su Mo's true strength, the two behaved more piously than Zhou Xu.
Regarding the several routes to the far north, Dongyue organized his words and spoke cautiously:
"In the past, the most convenient way was definitely the railway. We followed the railway to the end, and then drove for about six days to reach the vicinity of the ice sheet."
"But now the railway has been blocked and we only have three routes left."
"First, find a few reliable cars and drive all the way there. This method is the least dangerous. We can change the direction at any time, but it is also relatively time-consuming and requires at least 40 days of driving."
"Second, we follow the ocean current on the east side of the mainland all the way up. I actually recommend this route, because the return route of the Tianyuan fleet is probably this way. With them walking in front, we will encounter danger later. The possibility will become very small, but Lord Siming has warned me that there may be risks if we pass through Tianyuan territory."
"The third is the ocean current to the west of the New World. This road is relatively easy to walk, but there is a serious problem. We must pass through the Dragon Flag territory and the area governed by the Golden Eagle. Once we are targeted by these people, I’m afraid it will be no less troublesome than the East Ocean Current route.”
"Let's leave from Dongyangliu. It just so happens that I'm going to Tianyuan Territory to stay for two days to do something."
The three routes didn’t require much consideration in the first place.
Having been away for nearly five months, Sumo quickly decided to go back to the territory to take a look on the way to the ice field.
And now he has only four months remaining in this ruins.
After getting the Adventurer Terminal, I may only be able to stay for more than a month before I return to the territory.
Although he didn't know if there would be a chance to come to this ruined world again, before leaving, Sumo decided to do his best to help the territory deal with all the troubles.
After lunch, Zhou Xun, the beast brother, was left to have a friendly exchange with the three of them, and then he ordered Arthur to bring some food for the thirteen members of the Blood Tiger Gang.
Sumo returned to the laboratory and took out the cancer cells and normal cells that were cultured last night.
More than ten hours later, the isolated cancer cells had begun to proliferate, and the number was sufficient for the experiment.
Take out enough cancer cell suspension for one experiment, take out two portions of normal cell suspension, and inject them into new culture vessels.
Sumo lowered his head and opened the freezer under him. In the air-conditioning, he first took out a small bag of blood extracted from Arthur's daughter Kaixi, and then took out a little blood extracted from Zhou Xun's body.
Unlike Arthur and others who survived the blood plague virus completely.
The blood of the two people currently looks normal. Although there are a lot of black dots in it, it can at least be distinguished as human blood.
"Let's do the experiment with Kaixi's first."
Aspirate the black dots of blood the size of rice grains and carefully put them into the same culture vessel as the cancer cells.
Then put a black spot of blood the size of a rice grain into a culture vessel for normal cells.
Because the serum can induce spontaneous cell movement and growth, Su Mo did not take the initiative to intervene, and only let the cultivation machine assist.
Half an hour later, in the normal cell vessel, the two began to fuse.
The picture transmitted back through the microscopic instrument.
Su Mo could clearly see that the greedy black spots in the blood were like smelling sweet food, and began to attack ordinary cells frantically and absorb the nutrients in them.
Facing these ordinary cells, they were invincible and soon assimilated them into the same black spot substance.
In the cancer cell culture vessel on the other side, the situation was exactly the opposite.
When these black spots encountered cancer cells, the two sides were clearly divided, with no intention of fusion or mutual devouring.
Everyone occupied one side, even if they were forced together by the instrument, the black spot substance seemed to be dead.
It's just
"Cancer cells regard these black spots as nutrients for their own growth?"
Simple cancer cells only know how to meet their basic needs, continuously absorb energy from the side, and proliferate themselves.
They did not attack the black spot substance, but only regarded it as food.
With this discovery, Su Mo couldn't help but raise his arms and call out, and his heart was relieved.
Sure enough, patients with malignant tumors have ways to restrain this blood plague virus.
The more cancer cells in the body, the faster the blood plague virus is devoured, and the shorter the time it takes to survive the blood plague.
Although it is not yet known what changes will occur to cancer cells after devouring this substance, the simplest way to survive this blood plague is finally available.
As long as tumor tissues are transplanted to all people to restrain the blood plague, everyone will become cancer patients.
"Okay, it seems that we still have to study it."
The human immune system will detect and remove cancerous cells in the body in real time. If you want to survive the immune mechanism, everyone will get cancer.
At the very least, like the blood plague, you have to study ways to suppress the immune system and reduce rejection reactions.
In addition, you have to take the path of biological carcinogens, which is more complicated and less operable.
Just think about it, if the remaining humans become cancer patients, successfully survive the blood plague virus, but have various other complications.
Su Mo scratched his head, gave up this idea, and continued to focus on the changes in cancer cells.
After swallowing these blood plague black spots, the color of the cancer cell tissue finally stopped being grayish white and instead had some black spots.
Injecting normal cells into the culture dish, these mutated cancer cells showed no tendency to attack and continued to absorb nutrients.
"It's not aggressive and has almost no effect on the properties, which is good, but how can I verify its direction of action?"
"Do we really have to find an ordinary person to test the effect after transplantation?"
Cang Hu has kidney cancer, and transplantation to other people will also turn into cancer in the same part.
Although after merging with the blood plague, he may have skin toughness like him, but the price is still there.
As the malignant tumor grows and spreads, it will still oppress the kidneys and cause failure, and transfer to other parts.
Su Mo was suddenly in a dilemma. It was too damaging to let ordinary people get cancer. Even if the other party was willing, he couldn't bear to do it.
"Wait for the inhibitor?"
Suddenly remembered the inhibitor brought down from the ship, which could help blood plague patients survive the transformation period and begin to have abilities.
Su Mo quickly opened the freezer and took out a bag, and began to test its internal content composition.
After a while, the experimental results came out, and it was exactly what he thought.
"Shit, the inhibitor actually contains a polyoma virus that has increased its activity several times, and there is also this thing called SV40!"
"Drinking this is equivalent to drinking a big mouthful of poison. After the blood plague is cured, I don't know how many parts of my body will grow tumors!"
As the saying goes, fight poison with poison. Obviously, researchers in this field in the territory have also discovered the relationship between cancer cells and blood plague viruses.
They did not hesitate at all and directly adopted the method of fighting poison with poison to treat.
As long as you are prompted to get cancer, the blood plague will naturally collapse without attack. As for what to do next?
There is a way to treat cancer. As long as you can afford the expensive treatment costs, regenerative medicine can even replicate organs.
At that time, the cancerous organs will be directly cut off, and the rejection reaction will be overcome, and then radiotherapy will be performed for a period of time.
As long as you can survive, it is equivalent to saving the country in a roundabout way and achieving the goal of curing blood plague.
"This method is too extreme. Ordinary people don't have the money and time to treat cancer. We must find other substances that can accommodate the blood plague virus."
"Since cancer cells can, there may be a second substance that can accommodate the blood plague!"
The research theory has returned to the intuitive scientific theory stage, and what Su Mo has to do seems to be much simpler.
Now, as long as we can find the reason why cancer cells are immune to the blood plague, or find another substance that can absorb the blood plague virus and is harmless to humans.
The terrifying blood plague will collapse on its own.
"I need a lot of experiments, whether it is microscopic matter, ordinary organisms, or even alien races, the power of the ocean"
"Cancer cells are the last helpless move, but before that, I still have"
"Five months!"
