Chapter 366 Mutant Species with Life
Chapter 366 Mutant Species with Life
Luo Hongyuan kept rubbing his arms; whenever he saw the wriggling mutated insect, he couldn't help but want to run away.
This thing is actually a living organism!? How is that possible!
"A living mutant species—this is a breakthrough in academia!" Dr. Zhou's eyes gleamed slightly as he stared at the mutant insect, and even the composed Dr. Qi agreed with this view.
"How do you know it doesn't have a main core?" Fu Baili quietly moved closer, not daring to get too close.
"I guessed from the structure." After thinking for a moment, Xi Yu suddenly reached her hand into the experimental box, seemingly wanting to touch the mutated insect.
This action stunned Fu Baili.
Before Xi Yu could even reach inside, Yan San grabbed her hand, his brows furrowing slightly: "What do you want to do?"
"It's nothing, I'll just grab it and take a look," Xi Yu said nonchalantly, having already put on her lab gloves.
Yan San frowned and glanced at her, then picked up another pair of gloves, put them on, and stood in her place without saying a word: "Let me do it."
He quickly reached in and grabbed the slowly wriggling worm in his hand.
Fu Baili immediately covered his mouth. The worm looked like a giant caterpillar, a rotten one, with an unknown blackish-yellow liquid oozing from its body. It looked disgusting.
Yan San, without changing his expression, grabbed the mutated insect so that Xi Yu could have a closer look.
Xi Yu looked around the mutated insect, then reached out and turned its belly over.
After observing it for a long time, Xi Yu felt that it was more accurate to describe this as a small insect-beast rather than a mutated species...
Yan San noticed Xi Yu's somber expression and knew she must have something on her mind. The two PhDs beside her also asked impatiently, "What did you discover?"
Xi Yu first had Yan San release the mutated insect, her brows furrowed, unsure how to explain it to the others.
"Is it related to the insectoids in the valley of the county? The aura of this mutated insect is very similar to that of the giant mantis," Yan San suddenly said.
Xi Yu was surprised that he had also thought of this point. Thinking of Yan San's extraordinary spiritual power, perhaps that was why he was able to detect the aura of the insect beast. He quickly nodded and said, "That's right, but it is a little different from the insect beast. Its appearance is the same as the mutated species."
Dr. Zhou, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but interrupt them and asked urgently, "What kind of riddle are you two playing? Explain yourself!"
After thinking for a moment, Xi Yu slowly said, "Dr. Zhou, you should have done data analysis on the strange giant insects that were transported from the valley in the county, right?"
“That’s true, although the giant mantis has already been cremated…” Dr. Qi nodded in response, then paused slightly, as if remembering something.
Dr. Qi hurriedly opened the stored data and compared the analysis data of the mutant insect with Dr. Zhou, and found that the similarity was 40%!
This giant mantis is unrelated to any existing insect, not only because of its different genes, but also because of its vastly different body structure. Yet, it unexpectedly shares similarities with mutant insects!
"Insect beast? Is that the strange mantis mentioned in the report submitted by your First Legion?" Situ Yan frowned deeply.
“That’s right,” Yan San replied.
The entire military saw that video, so Yan San didn't keep it a secret. Instead, after Dr. Qi analyzed the data, he shared the report with all the legions.
