Chapter 1105: Eternal Life

Du Dian swiped his card at the door, and the metal spiral door of the laboratory opened. The three people inside were startled by the sudden opening of the door. They all turned their heads to look, and they were all startled when they saw a strange face.

"Who are you?" The quiet woman came back to her senses, frowned and said softly.

Du Dian smiled slightly and said: "My name is Qin Mo. I just came to your company and came to see the experiments here. Are the three of you studying these two walking corpses?"

"Qin Mo?" The blond old man frowned and thought about it. He didn't remember the name. He noticed that Du Dian could open the door of the laboratory, and said in a deep voice, "Do you have a first-level authority?"

Du Dian smiled and said: "The consortium has given me the highest authority and allowed me to participate in all the experiments of the company."

"Supreme authority?" The three of them were shocked. They had been in the company for so many years and made countless contributions, but they had only obtained the first level of authority. From their understanding, it was basically impossible for the company to grant them the highest authority.

"Are you sent by the consortium?" Another grey-haired old man frowned.

Du Dian smiled and said: "I'm just here to study, and I have interrupted the three experiments, I hope you will forgive me."

Seeing that he avoided his own question, the white-haired old man couldn't continue to ask. He felt a little dissatisfied. The consortium actually promoted such a young junior to the highest authority of the company. What's the point of those who have dedicated their lives to the company?

However, he has seen too much about this kind of thing that relies on background to be in a high position. Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, he did not show it. He just nodded slightly to Du Dian and continued to look down at the experimental data in his hand.

"Qin Mo? To be on the safe side, I still need to verify your identity." The quiet and mature woman smiled sweetly and said, "My name is Chu Huiru, and I am a bioinformatics expert."

"Hello." Du Dian nodded and handed her his employee card to scan.

Seeing the scanned results, Chu Huiru was stunned for a while, sighed inwardly, but with a gentle expression on her face, she returned the employee badge to Du Dian, "Mr. Qin Mo is really young and promising, and I hope to have a happy cooperation in the future."

"The three are all my seniors, and I hope that the seniors will not hesitate to teach them." Du Dian laughed.

Seeing his humble attitude and sincere tone, the three of them felt less dissatisfied in their hearts, and their attitude eased up a lot. They each introduced themselves. The blond old man's name was Sauvas, and the white-haired old man's name was Qian Yi.

"Master Qian Yi,

Do you want to study medicine for the treatment of walking corpses? "After a few pleasantries, Du Dian asked casually.

Qian Yi shook his head and smiled, and said, "Of course not, there has been no significant progress in the treatment of walking corpses over the years, and the company's research funding in this area has also decreased, and now there are few people doing such useless research. We are extracting the virus in the walking corpse, decomposing the virus, hoping to extract the circulating division gene from the walking corpse virus."

"Cycle splitting gene?" Du Dian was curious.

Qian Yi said with a smile: "This is a conjecture made by an expert twenty years ago from the study of walking corpses. Unfortunately, he has passed away. In recent years, the conjecture of the cycle splitting gene has been confirmed, and it seems that it does exist. In our research I also found some clues, if it can be extracted, it will be very effective, it can make us ordinary people's lifespan infinitely increase, and it is possible to achieve eternal life!"

"Eternal life?" Du Dian was surprised, "Is there life in this world that can live forever?"

"Not before, but it will be difficult to say in the future." Qian Yi showed a mysterious smile.

Chu Huiru next to her looked serious, and said: "Even if people can't live forever, they can greatly increase their lifespan. It's not a problem to live for four or five hundred years. Think about it, if everyone's lifespan can be greatly improved, the butterflies driven by it will The effect is so powerful, a person who has lived for 500 years, how profound his knowledge will be, coupled with the reproductive power of our human beings, the territory will expand more than ten times, and it may be able to regain the hegemony of the earth."

Du Dian nodded, even if the life span was doubled, the butterfly effect would be unimaginably terrifying! It's just that there is such a thing in this walking dead virus? He thought of the body structure of the extreme ice worm, the immortal cells, infinite division and transformation, and the virus appeared after the devil worm invaded the earth. Now it seems that it is very likely that the devil worm dropped the virus on the earth.

"These walking corpses are infected, is there no way to restore them to humans?" Du Dian asked the three of them.

Sowas shook his head and said: "Once it is completely infected into a walking corpse, it is basically hopeless. The cells and memory carriers in the brain are torn apart by the mutation caused by the virus. Even if the body is restored to a human appearance, the brain cannot be restored. Your brain is the most complex machine, and with current technology, it is still impossible to completely repair a completely damaged brain."

Du Dian's heart was cold, feeling like a sharp thorn pierced into his heart, but he still insisted on asking: "Is there no way at all? There are so many infected humans, if they can be cured, then The value of it is by no means greater than making an immortal medicine or something?"

Qian Yi chuckled, and said: "How can it be compared? If there is a medicine for immortality, its value must be incomparable. Is there anything in this world that is more attractive than eternal life? Those who are infected are just ordinary people. , Even if the medicine for treatment can be researched, who will buy it? Do their relatives have so much money to buy medicine? If so, they will not let their relatives leave the city to be infected by the virus."

Du Dian was stunned.

He felt as if his heart was being tightly grasped by a palm, kneading and contracting vigorously.

Qian Yi's words made his mind heat up, and he even wanted to tear the three of them apart, but his rationality made his body stand in place like a nail. Perhaps, he should have seen through this earlier.

The great people hope to live forever and continue to enjoy themselves, but ordinary people only hope to keep their lives and be cured when they are sick. However, the big shots control most of the resources, and it is destined that these resources will be tilted according to their wishes.

Even if a drug suitable for ordinary people is developed, it is only because the market demand is large and it can fill their pockets.

"So, the company has stopped conducting research in this area?" Du Dian was silent for a long time before slowly opening his mouth.

Chu Huiru keenly felt that the young man's aura was fluctuating, and when he saw him speak, he immediately said: "It's not that the company doesn't conduct research in this area, but that no one is willing to study it. Not to mention the difficulty, the allocation is still small. If the research fails, you will be criticized, such a drudgery, unless you are 70% to 80% sure, otherwise it is just asking for trouble."

Du Dian breathed lightly and said: "I see, can you let me participate in this experiment of yours? I only observe and emulate, and it will not affect you."

The three of them looked at each other, their faces were troubled, but thinking that Du Dian was the highest authority, they couldn't help but refuse, Qian Yi nodded and said: "Okay, you are still young, it is good to watch more from the side."

"Thank you, Master Qian." Du Dian thanked.

Qian Yi smiled, and the three of them got busy with the experiment in hand.
