After returning to his dormitory, He Xingzhou continued to organize his research materials. He wanted to compare the genes and biological traits of the mutated black snapper and establish a biological mutation or evolution model as a warning.
He Xingzhou numbered the three mutated black snapper. He discovered that the zerg race genes of the three black snapper were different.
After two of them were stimulated by nuclear radiation, the Zerg genes did not mutate that quickly. As for the last mutant black snapper, black snapper two, the speed of the gene mutation had increased by hundreds of times!
It was as if it had entered a mutation period. There were new changes every day.
The Quantum Processor reminded him, “When the Zerg genes invade the creatures of the primitive planet, this will happen when they reach a certain level. As long as it can get enough food, it can evolve into a low-level Zerg in a few weeks or months.”
“In other words, black snapper two will mutate into a Zerg in a few weeks?” He Xingzhou asked.
The Quantum Processor said, “Theoretically, yes.”
He Xingzhou became serious. According to the Quantum Processor, the Zerg had different forms. But there was one thing for sure, they were all highly aggressive creatures.
It seemed that he needed to properly take care of this fish. This was an important biological material that would prove his theory of the Zerg crisis!
He Xingzhou immediately contacted the Mutant Biology Research Group and headed to the biology experimental building.
When he arrived at the biology experimental building, there were already two students waiting for him. They were both biology students and also members of the Mutant Biology Research Interest Group.
“Senior, Here!” A junior stood in the shade and waved at him from afar.
He Xingzhou looked over and saw a beautiful figure. The most eye-catching thing was her pair of jade-like legs. Her thighs were graceful and round, and her calves were slender and smooth. The proportions were perfectly coordinated.
The refreshing canvas shoes paired with jeans shorts and a white T-shirt made her 1.67 meters tall and sexy figure appear to be full of vitality!
She had a oriental oval face, slender eyebrows, moon-lit eyes, bright red lips, a straight nose, and medium-long hair that was slightly curled at the end. Her beauty was off the charts. Even the students passing by could not help but take a second glance at her.
Her name is Jiang Chan, a member of the research group. She was only a freshman this year, two years younger than He Xingzhou. After learning that He Xingzhou could make a nuclear reactor, she idolized he Xingzhou greatly.
Standing beside Jiang Chan was the leader of the research interest group, Wu Rui, a senior who was one year older than He Xingzhou. He was a rough man with a rough appearance, but he was very strict with academics.
“The weather is hot, here you go.” Jiang Chan handed He Xingzhou a bottle of cold mineral water. He Xingzhou did not stand on ceremony and drank two mouthfuls.
“How are my fish?” He Xingzhou asked.
“They’re alive and kicking!” Jiang Chan showed a puzzled expression. “And they’re too active. We’ve seen many mutated fish, but the ones you brought are like biological motors. They’re noisy all day long and constantly need to be fed.”
“Yeah.” Wu Rui nodded, “Originally, we raised them together, but I found that they actually started to attack and bite each other, so I had to separate them. “These fish eat too much, and their body size has completely exceeded that of a normal black snapper’s!”
“The average adult black snapper’s body length is 120-300 millimeters, weight 125-1800 grams, and the big ones can reach 3.5-4.0 kilograms. And these mutated fish, the smallest body size is three times the size of an ordinary black snapper!”
“Among them, Black Snapper No. 2 has grown to five times its size and is half a meter long. This is ridiculous!”
The three of them chatted as they walked into the experimental building.
In the biological experimental pool in the laboratory, He Xingzhou saw his three research subjects.
Black Snapper No. 1 and No. 3 had doubled in size compared to before, while Black Snapper No. 2 had completely mutated into a new species!
In the pool, it was like a black monster. Its two rows of sharp teeth were like serrated teeth, and its head was large, occupying one-third of its body!
This meant that its brain capacity was increasing, and its dorsal fin, which was originally strong, had doubled in size. There were even signs of exoskeleton growth!
When it saw people, it kept tossing and turning, hitting the breeding pool, and even tried jumping out of the water. If it was not for the safety measures in the laboratory, it might have directly rushed out of the pool!
Jiang Chan was a little afraid and asked, “It’s becoming more and more like a monster. Can We still keep it?”
“It is a monster!” He Xingzhou said affirmatively. “According to my deduction, black snapper two will undergo a mutation. In a few weeks, it will completely become a monster!”
“This is indeed the creature with the highest degree of mutation I have ever seen!” Wu Rui said as he took pictures of black snapper two.
He said, “There are more and more mutated creatures in the world now, but most of them are small-scale mutations. I’ve only seen one completely mutated creature like Black Snapper No. 2. Is it because you stimulated it with nuclear radiation?”
He Xingzhou nodded and said, “There should be an effect in this regard.”
“I think that this safety pool should be covered with an iron cage to prevent this monster from coming out to hurt people!”
“I think so too!” Wu Rui agreed.
They had applied for this laboratory from the school. It did not have many advanced facilities, and the genetic testing was done in the school’s specialized laboratory.
“And every day from now on, we have to feed it enough food!” He Xingzhou said.
“It grows too fast, and it eats as much as we feed it!” Jiang Chan said worriedly. “Will this make it mutate faster?”
“Yes.” He Xingzhou’s words made both of them worried.
“I feel that our experiment is a little out of our control!” Wu Rui said, “Why don’t we report it to the school?”
“No Rush,” He Xingzhou said calmly, “In another week, I think it will mutate even more strangely. By then, I will have finished writing my research paper.”
Speaking of this.., jiang Chan asked curiously, “Senior, you said that according to your model, it will become an alien monster. Is it really that exaggerated? According to what you said, wouldn’t all the other mutated creatures mutate? Then the world would be in chaos. It would feel like a biochemical crisis!”
“It’s a biochemical crisis!” He Xingzhou did not hide his opinion at all. In any case, they would find out sooner or later.
“It’s not an exaggeration to say that I think this world will usher in the biochemical apocalypse in a few decades. The mutated creatures will occupy this planet. If humans don’t have any countermeasures, they will soon die out.”
Hearing his words, Wu Rui laughed and said, “This is not an exaggeration. How is this possible?”
“Even if this black snapper grows twice as big, it’s just a little bigger. Even great white sharks and whales are powerless against humans!”
“No matter how much it mutates, where can it mutate to? Moreover, in this world, there are exceptions to all living things that grow especially big.”
Jiang Chan was thinking about he Xingzhou’s words. She said, “Although I also feel that it is unlikely, I still feel that senior He Xingzhou is not exaggerating!”
“I think you are blindly worshipping!” Wu Rui ridiculed.
Jiang Chan’s pretty face blushed. “I’m just stating the facts. I’ve also finished reading the genetic analysis from before. It’s indeed very strange!”
He Xingzhou said, “Wait another week. According to the genetic evolution model I established, in just one week, this black Snapper No. 2 will subvert your understanding!”
