The dormant state of the last batch of macaque experimental subjects is one of the positive mutations produced during the transformation of the Fructus fungi.

Huang Xiuyuan looked at the test reports of this batch of macaque experimental subjects and found that in an environment without food, lack of sunlight, potassium sulfide, and carbon dioxide, the host would enter a state of false death dormant.

"Have you done a freezing experiment?"

"Frozen experiment?" Zhou Jingwei's eyes lit up in an instant: "Why didn't I expect it? Academician Huang woke up the dreamer with his words."

Zhou Jingwei, who had reacted, immediately called his assistant to prepare relevant laboratory and equipment materials.

Huang Xiuyuan looked at the macaque experimental subject that looked like a corpse. The staff used a robot to place a large pot of nutrient solution next to the corpse.

Then, the intensity of light was increased, and the surface of the macaque experiment was instantly filled with the sea-blue mycelium cortex, as if it had received some information.

Through the Doppler detector and infrared detector, Huang Xiuyuan clearly observed the changes in macaques. As the light continues to illuminate, the blue carpet formed by the fluorescent fungi begins to absorb carbon dioxide in the air and sulfur ions preserved in the body, and undergoes chemical reactions.

The temperature in the macaque's body also increased little by little. Twenty minutes later, the macaque opened its eyes and its body temperature rose to about 38.1 degrees Celsius.

It looked around in a daze and horror, and suddenly saw a pot of nutrient solution not far away. It crawled over carefully, and then touched the nutrient solution with its fingers.

When the fingers were stained with a little nutrient solution, the blue blanket quickly absorbed the little nutrient solution and then sent a safe signal to the macaque.

The macaque that received the signal quickly lowered its head and sucked the nutrient solution in the basin.

After sucking a large pot of nutrient solution, it was not as manic as other batches of experimental subjects. Instead, it quietly observed the big cage, as if looking for a channel to go out.

When Huang Xiuyuan saw this scene, he found that the monkey had a good intelligence and should not have become a brainless person. However, the corresponding improvement in physical fitness was not as powerful as other batches of monkeys.

"Sure enough, wisdom and body are a contradictory existence. To break the shackles, we need to find a new path." Huang Xiuyuan whispered to himself.

Why is the body and wisdom contradict each other?

The answer lies in the inefficient energy utilization rate of Blue Star creatures. There is no sufficient energy supply, so the body can only make a choice, either choosing a powerful body or a smart brain. This is a two-choice multiple-choice question.

If you want to have the best of both worlds, unless the organism increases the energy utilization rate and doubles the body's previous ability supply level by about 100% you can take into account both the body and wisdom.

Although the turbulent fungus in front of us gives humans some hope, it is still perfect.

However, Huang Xiuyuan did not care much about the quality of the body. To a certain extent, the brain is the foundation of human beings and the core competitiveness of human beings to dominate Blue Star.

No matter how strong the body is, even if the biological exoskeleton with chitin grown, it is difficult to withstand the attack of large-caliber shells. What's more, humans can build mechanical exoskeletons or even bionic exoskeletons.

In his opinion, the value of the Fructus fungi lies in its special evolutionary promotion effect, which may allow humans to adapt to gravity-free, vacuum, and high-radiation outer space, rather than to strengthen the body.

After all, the physical strength of Blue Star's carbon-based organisms has an upper limit, and no matter how strong it is, it has a limit.

Three hours later, Zhou Jingwei's team prepared laboratories and equipment related to the experiment.

The macaque, who had eaten and drunk enough, was locked in a special transportation compartment by a robot, and then the cage was completely disinfected to ensure that there were no virus residues.

When the experimental subject was sent to a specially prepared laboratory, Zhou Jingwei and others operated the robot and began to do the experiment.

Researchers and staff at this level are not allowed to directly contact the experimental subjects or strains, and there are four isolation layers inside and outside. If any problems occur, they must be completely closed and disinfected and deactivated.

Like in the movie, it is absolutely impossible to directly touch unknown creatures with your hands. Not to mention using your hands, it is impossible even if people get close to each other.

No biochemical researcher can be so brainless when directly touching unknown organisms with his hands. Doing so is simply life-long.

The robot locked the macaque experiment object into another experimental compartment, and then forcibly fixed the experiment object and let it lie inside.

Zhou Jingwei ordered: "Reduce the light intensity and temperature."

"Yes." The researcher pressed the switch and slowly adjusted the light intensity and temperature.

After about 20 minutes, the light intensity in the experimental chamber was only shimmer, and the temperature was approaching zero. The experiment was still awake at the beginning, trying to use the fat and sugar elements stored in the body to resist the ambient temperature drop.

But as time goes by, it finds that the temperature is getting lower and lower. Even if the fluorescent fungi make a strain and wrap the macaques with a blue blanket, it still finds it difficult to resist the temperature drop.

Another 20 minutes passed.

At this time, the temperature in the experimental compartment suddenly dropped to minus 50 degrees Celsius. The experimental subject finally gave up his resistance and began to enter a state of false death dormant.

Huang Xiuyuan looked at the real-time data of various detectors and found that some changes occurred in the body of the experimental subject.

Zhou Jingwei also discovered this and immediately ordered: "Start the cell probe microscope."

"receive."

There are 8 micro robotic arms extending up, down, left and right of the experiment compartment. At the top of the robotic arm, there is a dense and slender "needle".

The probe slowly penetrates into the body of the experimental body. This is a new technology, mainly used in vivo cells, chromosomes, gene detection, etc. in live experiments.

When the probe excites subtle ultrasound waves, the external system quickly processes the feedback data of these ultrasound waves and then integrates them into molecular-level contrast.

Huang Xiuyuan saw that a special substance was rapidly generating inside the cells of the experimental subject.

In fighting low temperatures, the Fluor fungi are the real experts. Their parent planet, Mars, has an average temperature of minus 55 degrees Celsius and a minimum temperature of minus 133 degrees Celsius.

Usually, after being below minus 16 degrees Celsius, the fluorescent fungi will enter a dormant state. Their active period is usually during the summer day on Mars, because at this time, the temperature can reach up to 27 degrees Celsius near the surface of Mars.

Before coming to Blue Star, the virus experienced a long survival in outer space.

It can survive in such harsh extreme environments, which shows the low temperature resistance of the Florus fungi.

When the temperature in the experimental chamber dropped to minus 120 degrees Celsius, the experimental subject had completely turned into a piece of hard frozen meat.

"Academician Huang, I plan to conduct a thawing experiment tomorrow to see if the experimental body can recover its vitality."

Huang Xiuyuan nodded: "I'll come here tomorrow."

Everyone was not worried about whether the Fructus fungi could withstand the ultra-low temperature. What they really care about was whether the macaque experiment could withstand it.

Huang Xiuyuan knew that, but he didn't say it out. Anyway, the truth will be revealed as soon as it thaws tomorrow.

He and Zhou Jingwei discussed for a while and told the other party to pay attention to managing these experimental subjects and Fructus fungi, and not to be careless.
