Chapter 731 Dangerous Use

Zhou Rui has not been infected with "H1N1".

But that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been exposed to it in nature.

As the most famous virus incident in the past few years, it happened before Zhou Rui was reborn and caused quite a stir at the time.

Fortunately, the influenza virus is "strongly transmissible and weakly lethal", which caused a certain amount of panic but did not cause too serious a disaster.

He tentatively said the name, but he had a few other things in mind.

The goal is clear.

Try to use the ability to "imitate a cat and draw a tiger" to analyze the simplest "creature" in the world.

Virus.

Sure enough, as Zhou Rui's order was issued, the calm sea quickly responded.

But there is one thing that is different. When I analyzed "human beings" just now, the sea water emits a translucent light orange light, which looks very vital.

It’s light green now

The entire pitch-black boundless sea turned into a miserable color of forgiveness.

Good guy is a little scary!

Strange substances representing genetic information floated up from the bottom of the sea, broke through the water, and gathered in the sky.

If we say that when we analyzed the "human genome" just now, it was boundless and vast.

So at this time, it can only be regarded as extremely thin, and even a little stretched.

After a cursory glance, it looked like there were barely tens of thousands.

Yes, viruses are such simple and unpretentious creatures.

This is quite complicated. The simplest "mimetic virus" only has more than 300 nucleotides.

They are everywhere, exist forever, and coexist with all things.

8% of the genetic information in human genes comes from viruses, which is caused by continuous infection and coexistence from ancient times to the present.

Their mission seems to be to continuously infect, inject their own genes, and then coexist.

In this world, there is no longer any complex life form whose genes are pure and do not involve viruses.

Viruses that are feared by humans and can cause human diseases are only an extremely rare part of nature.

If these characteristics of them are isolated, they are actually more like ubiquitous and self-reproducing "micro-robots" rather than "living things".

Very weird!

Fortunately, the system still defines it as a "biological creature" and can initiate analysis.

Because there were not many of them, a small cloud quickly formed this time.

Zhou Rui's "perspective" floated to the clouds, stared at it for a moment, and decided to do something simple first.

Talk about your editing needs:

"Without changing other traits, the creature's replication speed will be enhanced to within five hours."

He was not very well prepared, and he had not studied anything specifically, but the average replication time of the virus was 7-8 hours, so this requirement was not too excessive.

This time, he finally didn't hear the words "the host is too bad" anymore.

The small clouds in front of him surged rapidly, and finally turned into new clouds that Zhou Rui could not see changing, but had indeed changed.

For the "genome map" composed of tens of thousands of genetic information, Zhou Rui can already check it "manually".

If he wishes, he can even remember the location and content of this genetic information.

Just like an engineering creation composed of tens of thousands of parts, it is not difficult for him.

Of course, if he chooses "Confirm" and consumes this opportunity to use his ability, the system should give him a more intuitive and convenient form to check.

However, he has no such plans for the time being, this time it is just a test.

After observing the clouds for a long time, Zhou Rui roughly understood the operating mechanism of "imitating a cat and drawing a tiger".

It seems that he can be an irresponsible Party A, but the need is more vague.

"On the premise of not changing other traits, try to strengthen the infection ability and immunity to deception as much as possible."

The clouds surged again.

After lowering the standard from "human" to "virus", this ability becomes more interesting.

The only pity is that compared to the "similar approach but the same effect" design drawings, this one is not so intuitive.

After every change, it's still the same thing

"New instruction: Strengthen this life, only effective for white people."

I'm just playing around and not taking it seriously

real!

——————

Outside, Zhou Rui had closed his eyes to rest for a long time.

Ridiculously long.

So much so that Han Ziyin and Li Wenqian thought he was asleep.

However, they knew that Zhou Rui would occasionally have this kind of situation, so they didn't bother him and just pretended to be thinking about the problem.

It wasn't until early in the morning that Zhou Rui finally "came to his senses."

There was a very complicated expression on his face.

It seems that there is lingering fear?

Han Ziyin asked with concern: "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhou Rui exhaled a breath and said, "It's nothing, I'm just a little tired."

Li Wenqian suggested: "How about we sleep together? Uh~ I mean really sleep."

Zhou Rui shook his head and looked at the paper on "Molecular Biology" on the computer screen, which he had found when he was brushing up on experience.

Recalling what happened in the system space just now, Zhou Rui could only say:

Viruses are really evil!

The structure is so simple yet so effective

Just now, he had a playful attitude and tentatively proposed some demands that were, in short, quite anti-human.

Directly increasing the fatality rate or something is already considered unpretentious and upright.

What damages the telomeres of chromosomes and causes contagious lifespan reduction?

What destroys the reproductive system and achieves infectious castration?

What about destroying nerve cells to achieve infectious intelligence reduction?

It can even set the targeting of human races.

The system is very generous to be able to edit.

And because of the simple structure, the targeted modification of viruses is a technology that already exists in reality.

In other words, these edited killers are practical and can be brought into the real world.

But he didn't dare to really bring those things out.

Not necessary is one aspect, the most important thing is: viruses will mutate.

And the mutation is fierce and fast.

As long as it is released into nature, it will become completely uncontrollable. It will mutate infinitely according to the environment and the infected host until it completely coexists with the living organism and its own genes are embedded in the genes of the living organism.

If someone develops "viruses" as weapons, Zhou Rui can only say, but it is definitely bad and stupid.

This ability cannot be used in this way.

At least in this era, he doesn't see the reason to do so.

Of course, if the future is unfortunately subject to drastic changes, the dragon wails, the Kunpeng falls, and the mountains and rivers are in trouble,

then it can be used to overturn the table.

Forget it, he still prefers engineering.

Simple and direct, just blow it up for me.

And the virus is too dangerous.

Even if it is modified in a direction that is beneficial to humans, there is still a risk of uncontrollable mutation.

The mind can't stop thinking at all, Zhou Rui frowned more and more, and even had the urge to go back to the system space to try again.

At this time, a bare hand reached out and closed Zhou Rui's notebook.

Turning around, Han Ziyin said seriously: "You don't look good, let's take a break, we still have to help Tong Xin move tomorrow."

Zhou Rui wanted to refuse, but Han Ziyin's white finger gently smoothed his frown.

Han Ziyin said meaningfully: "Be obedient, go take a shower with me, there will be a reward."

Zhou Rui didn't react, and was pulled away.

Li Wenqian obviously didn't react either, and shouted in confusion: "What reward? Can I come too!"

Han Ziyin's ethereal voice came from the bathroom.

"You will also be rewarded if you come!"

Li Wenqian: ? ? ?
