More than an hour later.

Lu Yongchang quietly looked at the little white mouse who was locked in a cage in front of him and ran around.

"What are you going to do?"

Mao Zhengzhi asked softly on the side.

Lu Yongchang pondered for a moment, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and he pointed to the fungus sample that had not been treated at all.

"Grind the fungus into powder and inject it directly into the bodies of these teenage mice."

Mao Zhengzhi's expression changed drastically: "Are you crazy?!"

"These are alien life, and the guinea pigs have no resistance to them!"

Lu Yongchang sighed deeply.

"There is not enough time, so we can't analyze these Martian creatures slowly."

“Now we need the fastest and most direct solution.”

"First of all, I need to know if there is any substance I want inside these fungi."

...

After grinding a whole fungus sample into powder, Lu Yongchang and Mao Zhengzhi mixed it with normal saline, and finally made 15 fungal mixtures of different concentrations.

In order to ensure the rigor of the experiment, Lu Yongchang carefully selected twenty teenage mice, five of which were used as the control group, and only equal amounts of normal saline was injected.

The remaining fifteen, as experimental groups, will be injected with different concentrations and equal amounts of fungal mixture.

After all the work was completed, Lu Yongchang put these guinea pigs into a special feeding cage with a serious expression.

Next, all they have to do is wait with peace of mind.

At the beginning, whether it was the fifteen quintessential mice in the experimental group or the five quintessential mice in the control group, they were in good mental state.

but!

In just over ten minutes, an abnormal phenomenon occurred.

The fifteen teenage mice in the experimental group closed their eyes and fell into the feeding cage.

Among them, the higher the injection concentration, the shorter the time it takes to go from awakening to "coma"!

The mouse who injected the highest concentration of fungal mixture fell to the ground in just ten seconds, while the mouse who injected the lowest concentration of fungal mixture lasted for several minutes!

Seeing this scene, Lu Yongchang's pupils suddenly magnified a little.

What a domineering effect!

You know, even at the highest concentration, it only contains 1% fungal powder!

"Brother Mao!" Lu Yongchang shouted softly, "Prepare to start the inspection!"

Mao Zhengzhi looked serious and immediately opened the breeding cage and took out the fifteen labeled quilt mice in turn.

...

After a detailed inspection, Lu Yongchang suddenly gasped!

At first, he thought that these fifteen teenage mice had just entered a sleep state.

But according to the inspection results, this is definitely not a simple sleep. Strictly speaking, it is basically equivalent to a fake death state!

When the body temperature of the mice was 38℃, the normal respiration frequency was 160 beats per minute and the normal heartbeat frequency was 625 beats per minute.

But now, the respiration frequency of the mouse who was injected with the highest concentration of the mixture has dropped to an extremely exaggerated level, and it will take only one breath for nearly ten minutes!

As for the heartbeat, it has also dropped to a level of two to three times per minute!

The body temperature dropped directly to the ambient temperature.

If the instrument hadn't detected that it had heartbeat and breathing, Lu Yongchang would have thought that the jealous mouse was dead!

Although the mice injected with the lowest concentration of the mixture also entered a state of false death, the data was much normal, and the number of breathing and heartbeats basically dropped to 10% of the normal level.

Mao Zhengzhi, who was responsible for recording the data, had a violent pupil tremor: "This...this is amazing!"

"If this state can be maintained, these guinea pigs can even sleep for hundreds of years!"

Although he successfully brought the guinea pig into a real hibernation state, Lu Yongchang's eyes did not have much joy.

"The most important issue now is..."

"How should we wake them up?"

Hearing this, Mao Zhengzhi, who was standing beside him, suddenly froze.

yes.

How to wake them up?

...

There is still one day before the United Nations General Assembly.

In the biology laboratory.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ

Lu Yongchang was wearing protective clothing and sat on the chair with a melancholy expression.

Mao Zhengzhi grabbed a thick document in his hand and walked quickly to Lu Yongchang.

"How is it? What's the result?" Lu Yongchang asked in a low voice.

Mao Zhengzhi sighed softly and shook his head slowly.

“No success.”

"We have used all the methods we can use, but none of them have achieved results."

"And..." Speaking of this, Mao Zhengzhi paused slightly, "There is still bad news."

"We found that the mouse that was injected with the lowest concentration of the mixture has begun to consume the fat in the body."

"Although it is not fast, at the current consumption rate, if we do not take any measures, it will die in about a month."

Lu Yongchang was silent for a moment, and a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes: "Please inject nutrient solution first."

"By the way, what's the blood test result?"

Mao Zhengzhi's expression was a little excited: "Some abnormal objects were detected in the blood!"

"It's not an object..." Mao Zhengzhi subconsciously reached out and scratched his head, but scratched his protective suit.

He retracted his hand awkwardly and said in confusion: "How to say it, according to observation, it is more like a biological enzyme."

"It's just that its structure is completely different from the biological enzymes on Earth."

"The only thing that is certain is that it is an extremely special protein."

A flash of light flashed in Lu Yongchang's eyes instantly.

Biological enzymes!

Thinking of the system's prompts, Lu Yongchang is already 90% sure!

The problem lies in this so-called special protein!

"Can't we directly prescribe the right medicine to solve this biological enzyme?"

He asked after pondering for a moment.

"It's very difficult!" Mao Zhengzhi shook his head vigorously.

"Yongchang, you should know that although there are 500-600 amino acids on Earth, life on Earth is composed of 20 specific amino acids."

"Although there is no definite answer in the scientific community at present, many people believe that this should be related to the early evolution of the earth."

"Even though Mars is very similar to Earth, its evolution process must be very different."

“This also led to a result.”

"The amino acids that make up these proteins are not the amino acids we are familiar with."

Lu Yongchang's face changed slightly.

This means that the biological knowledge currently mastered by humans is basically of no use!

Mao Zhengzhi continued: "At present, we can only slowly crack the genetic information of Martian fungi."

"However, it can take a lot of time."

"No!" Lu Yongchang shook his head and rejected the proposal.

Cracking genetic information? What a joke!

What do you know how much time this thing takes from scratch!

"Maybe...there's another way!"

The guilty look in Lu Yongchang's eyes became stronger and he murmured to himself.
Chapter completed!
