Chapter 303: Breathing Underwater (3rd Monthly Pass)
"Don't worry, you people are all assets of the company, and the company can't just waste it in vain." Liu Qian nodded.
"Thank you very much, but now more important than us is our experimental project, especially the samples needed for the experimental project is the priority, without enough samples, the project can not continue, and if it is delayed, some studies will have to start from scratch. The most important thing you need to do when you go back is to make sure we have enough samples for your experiments. Wei Liang continued to talk to Liu Qian.
"Experimental samples, do you mean normal humans who are not infected?" Liu Qian asked Wei Liang.
"Yes, under the current circumstances, we still need at least about 50 experimental samples to ensure the follow-up half month of research, and there may be more after that." Wei Liang nodded.
"Okay, you don't have to stay with us here, let's let your experimenters get the project at hand as soon as possible. I'm going to listen to your reports so I can plan my next steps. Liu Qian waved his hand to Wei Liang.
"Okay, I'll get them ready quickly." Wei Liang walked out of the conference room after answering, beckoning the experimenters to briefly summarize the progress of the experimental project at hand, and then came to the conference room one after another.
Ten minutes later, all the experimenters gathered in the conference room, and the number of people was only eighteen, which was a few more than the number of people who greeted Liu Qian and the others at the hatch before, but the number of people who had imagined Liu Qian was still much less.
Among the eighteen experimenters, thirteen were male and five were female.
The young woman who followed Wei Liang had not appeared before, and she appeared behind the conference room. Han Guangming and Zhao Meng's pupils were slightly dilated. His gaze subconsciously stayed on her pretty face for a while before he quickly moved away again.
"She was my assistant. Her name is Sunina, and she is a genius researcher. After Wei Liang saw Han Guangming and Zhao Meng's eyes, he took the initiative to introduce them to the four of them.
"Greetings, distinguished guests." Sunina greeted Liu Qian's four people, her voice was as sweet as her people, and Han Guangming and Zhao Meng's faces were a little red, but Liu Qian didn't raise her eyelids much.
After a brief introduction to the participants, the meeting began quickly. The reports of these experimenters were quite professional, and Liu Qian couldn't understand them at all. But fortunately, Yinhe can understand part of it, and then compare it with some data in her memory, and convert it into relatively easy-to-understand content, which is transmitted to Liu Gan's headset through a very slight voice, so that Liu Gan's reply when talking about these reports is relatively professional.
Galaxy now resembles an armored warrior, wearing a fully covered helmet, and speaking in a muffled voice, which can be heard by anyone except Liu Gan. She sat upright and didn't move, like a rock.
Seeing Liu Qian so professional. Wei Liang and his experimenters also had serious expressions on their faces, and took turns to introduce the items in their hands to Liu Qian and the four of them.
Through the reports of these people and the translation of the galaxy, Liu Qian slowly figured out what the research project of this secret laboratory was, and I have to say that their research is still very complicated, all related to marine life.
It is too pediatric to extract certain anti-cancer drugs from the brains and bodies of marine organisms, and their research is mainly on the combination of the characteristics of marine organisms and humans. For example, so that humans can breathe freely in seawater, so that humans can withstand the pressure of water at a depth of thousands of meters, so that humans can discharge electricity like electric eels, and let humans and fish genetically hybrid~, producing real mermaids, and so on.
Most of the research topics made Liu Qian feel a little disappointed, even lethargic, and only two research projects made him interested.
One is how one can survive underwater, breathe like a fish. To this end, they have done a lot of experiments, hunted a lot of deep-sea creatures, studied their genes, and extracted a large number of very strange substances. They then injected drugs into the bodies of these deep-sea creatures to make their brains produce a special substance, which was then injected into the human brain.
Catalyzed by these substances, the degraded gills of human beings have been transformed by them again and again, the initial research was to make the lamp reusable the degraded gills, but the final research results were killed by the headquarters, and they had to turn to another research, that is, to develop the human potential, so that human beings can automatically electrolyze oxygen in seawater for human use, and have also made some progress.
The principle is related to the study of electric eel, so that the human skin tissue can produce electrical energy, water is absorbed from the skin and then ionized into oxygen and hydrogen, oxygen is absorbed by the alienated skin, into the human circulatory system for human metabolism, ionized excess oxygen and hydrogen are directly discharged from the surface of the body.
Seeing that Liu Qian was very interested in this research, Wei Liang's assistant Su Nina focused on the progress of the project. At present, the undersea laboratory has successfully developed several tubes of finished drugs, which can mutate the skin of some experimental subjects after injection to obtain the ability to breathe underwater skin, but the success rate is very low, only about 1 in 20.
Although increasing the dose of the injection can increase the success rate, the mortality rate of the subject is also greatly increased after the dose is increased, and the subject will be almost 100% mentally disturbed even if he does not die when he or she is injected with two tubes of the injection at a time.
In order to increase the success rate, they needed more experimental samples to further deepen their research until they could produce a drug with a success rate of at least 50 percent or more.
"In other words, after injecting this potion of yours, it will not grow two gills on the neck, but will modify your skin to give it an extra function of ionizing water? Will there be any change in the appearance of the skin? Liu Qian confirmed to Sunina.
If that's the case, he'd be willing to give it a try, and if he succeeded, he wouldn't have to worry about drowning even if he fell into the water. Now Liu Qian's hands and feet, the weight has become unusually heavy, and it is very difficult to swim after falling into the water, like a weighing stone, it will sink directly to the bottom of the water, and if he can't breathe underwater, falling into the water will become a big shortcoming for him.
