Chapter 18 Mission Completed, Everyone Shocked

Thinking in his heart, Duan Ming carefully checked the exploration module function of this insect girl.

Exploration module: racial talent, can explore the surrounding terrain, meteorites, mineral veins, and star beasts. Current exploration range: 1% of light years.

Looking at the new talent obtained by this insect girl after the promotion, Duan Ming was very satisfied.

Now this ice mine has been mined half, and the remaining part is estimated to be mined in a few days. At that time, we have to look for new mineral veins.

Originally, Duan Ming was still worried about this matter, but now the new talent of this insect girl just solved this problem.

"The reason why this insect base is upgraded so quickly is probably related to the insect girl eating the corpses of those ice crystal star beasts." Thinking in his heart, Duan Ming couldn't help but look forward to the arrival of the ice crystal star beast. After all, it is a star beast that gives experience and gold coins. Who doesn't love it?

The scientific research value of an ice crystal star beast is still very high. After all, star beasts are not common, and although there are some captured, they are not many.

Thinking of this, Duan Ming couldn't help but think of his scientific research tasks.

"I remember it seems to be related to mosquitoes?"

Thinking, Duan Ming dug out his research documents from a pile of miscellaneous items.

Looking at the research topic in his hand, Duan Ming's mouth twitched slightly.

"What the hell... Research on the "rate of population mutation of Aedes mosquitoes under high radiation environment"?"

Duan Ming was full of doubts about his research topic.

Are you sure this is not a joke? Mosquitoes living in space, are you sure you are not messing with me?

Of course, Duan Ming also knew that everyone's research topic was randomly matched and drawn, and he couldn't blame anyone for drawing such a topic.

However, even if this seems to have no meaning and is completely a thankless topic, Duan Ming will do his best to complete it.

After all, the completion of this topic can offset a large part of the tax, and if it is completed well, it can even completely offset the tax for this year!

So, Duan Ming is determined to win the scientific research task experiment!

"Put the experimental box in the outside world and directly expose it to the radiation..."

After taking a look at the few ordinary mosquitoes in the experimental box, Duan Ming couldn't help but look down on the experimental manual.

These are just ordinary mosquitoes on Earth. If these mosquitoes are really exposed to the radiation of cosmic light and radiation...

It is estimated that in less than a second, these mosquitoes will be wiped out, and all my experimental materials will be gone!

Thinking of this, Duan Ming released a mosquito and sent it out of the protective cover. Just when the mosquito thought it was free and flew out of the protective cover, it was directly transformed into a thin wisp of black smoke by the strong cosmic rays and drifted into the void.

Seeing this scene, Duan Ming felt that this experiment was more and more difficult to do!

"Ordinary mosquitoes on Earth can't even withstand the radiation of cosmic light, so what's the speed of mutation after research..."

Thinking of this, Duan Ming's heart was brightened.

Yes, ordinary mosquitoes on Earth can't bear it, so can the "Fire Rock Beast brand mosquitoes" made by Fire Rock Beast withstand the radiation in space?

Fire Rock Beasts, which have lived in space for many years, are exposed to radiation in space every day. They have long been of the same origin. Mosquitoes made by Fire Rock Beasts should be able to withstand the radiation of the universe!

Thinking of this, Duan Ming called the insect girl, told her his idea, and asked her to study this topic.

After all, Zerg and mosquitoes are also distant relatives, right?

Handing it over to the Zerg is also a matter of expertise.

...

Duan Ming handed this topic to the insect girl, and after a while, the insect girl came to find Duan Ming.

"Master, I took a section of the genes of this Fire Rock Beast and added it to the mosquitoes, so that these mosquitoes can survive for a period of time under radiation."

As she said, the insect girl released a mosquito and let it fly out of the protective cover.

The mosquito struggled in space for a quarter of an hour before it kicked its two legs, oh no, six legs, and its soul returned to the west.

When the mosquito died, the radiation in space had destroyed its gene chain, and it had changed from the size of a fingernail to a monster as big as a fist. It was completely unrecognizable.

The six legs became swollen, and the straw degenerated into two fangs. The wings became darker, bigger and harder, and they shone with a metallic luster.

From the outside, it was completely different from the creature that lived in the dark, such as mosquitoes. If Duan Ming hadn't watched this scene in full, he wouldn't have believed that the monster with eyes was actually the mosquito that could kill a bunch of mosquitoes with a slap!

Duan Ming swallowed his saliva in shock as he watched this scene.

Gene mutation...

Shaking his head and coming to his senses, Duan Ming quickly took a few photos with his notebook, and then asked the insect girl to release another mosquito so that he could record the whole process of the gene mutation.

Looking at the video in his hand, Duan Ming knew that he could probably exempt a large part of his tax for this year!

Duan Ming was full of confidence in this regard!

Who else could have the help of both the Zerg base and the Fire Rock Beast at the same time? Who else could directly transplant the gene fragment from the Fire Rock Beast to other creatures like the Zerg Girl?

Except for him, Duan Ming, there is no one else!

Of course, everyone chooses different research topics, but Duan Ming is confident that as the first person in this batch of pioneers to have a third-level base, his research topic will naturally not lag behind others!

After uploading these video pictures and the experimental process records he wrote to the Scientific Research Success Center of the Dilian Military Development Zone, Duan Ming stretched his body, ended the day's work, and returned to his little house to fall asleep.

But what Duan Ming didn't know was that not long after he fell asleep, the entire research center exploded!

...

Inside the research center.

"This gene transplantation method... is perfect! This is a theory that has not yet been applied in practice in modern medicine. I didn't expect to see it among this small group of pioneers. It's really a hidden dragon and crouching tiger!"

"This person's bold assumptions and careful verification are in line with the qualities that a scientific researcher should have. I think he should be given full marks for this research!"

"My opinion is the same as Mr. Li!"

"Me too!"

As everyone expressed their opinions, the old man who spoke first slowly stood up and submitted the views of the scientific research center on this research to the general director of this batch of pioneers.

After a while.

Congratulations to Duan Ming, the pioneer with base number: 7D32C5, for becoming the first pioneer to successfully complete the scientific research task in this batch of pioneering plans.

After discussion by the scientific research center, it is believed that the task was completed well, and hereby, a comprehensive reward for the quarterly tax amount of that year is given!

The sound of the system prompt echoed in the ears of all pioneers!

Suddenly, everyone exploded!
