Chapter 450: The Arrival of Biological Experts
The mist in the valley gradually receded. The vehicle carrying the children had already driven over, but it was driven away by Ye Nan again, the reason being that the Empire's scientists were about to arrive, and they didn't like seeing outsiders.
Although very dissatisfied, Quinn and the others still followed Ye Nan's instructions and waited honestly at the entrance of the valley for his summons.
About four hours later, rumbling helicopters came over. Seven helicopters lined up and flew over from the sky. Before these helicopters even landed, a series of flying devices scattered from them, and then several researchers wearing white coats jumped out from inside.
"This flying device is getting more and more uncomfortable. I suggest Stark modify it," Ma Xiu complained. The space inside these flying devices was truly too narrow, only able to accommodate one person, and the air inside wasn't good either. He suspected that if he stayed inside for too long, he would suffocate.
"If it weren't for the fire dragon here, I wouldn't have bothered to come so quickly."
"I thought you were in a hurry to see me, Ma Xiu. I didn't expect it was to see the fire dragon." Ye Nan greeted him, feigning sadness.
"Eh." Ma Xiu only saw Ye Nan at this time and was immediately surprised, "You are actually here."
Upon hearing this, Ye Nan's face turned awkward. It turned out Ma Xiu didn't know he was here at all. Then his words just now were equivalent to talking to a deaf person.
"Since you are here, give me your blood," Ma Xiu said, pulling a needle out of his bag, making a gesture to stab.
Seeing this, Ye Nan immediately dodged, increasing the distance between himself and Ma Xiu, "Don't research my blood."
Ever since he witnessed how Ma Xiu had turned himself into something neither human nor ghost, Ye Nan had kept Ma Xiu at a respectful distance.
Whether in the past, present, or future, Ye Nan upheld a principle for biological technology: use it only after perfection. That is, any biological technology, after undergoing multiple experiments and confirming there were no side effects, or that the side effects were relatively minor, would then be used.
But Ma Xiu was different. He was a pure dangerous element. His favorite thing to do was to conduct various dangerous experiments, most of which would produce results completely opposite to what he imagined.
Just like last time on Pandora, his berserk potion hadn't undergone any experiments at all before he let Ye Nan use it, resulting in Ye Nan's clone turning into a pile of green liquid.
Therefore, Ma Xiu's words were completely untrustworthy. He was the complete opposite extreme of virus researchers like Dr. Ashford who upheld a rigorous attitude.
Handing his blood to Ma Xiu would only result in a few more deformed monsters in the laboratory. He remembered Si Mila saying: if Dr. Ma Xiu's laboratory had a riot and the experimental specimens inside ran out, then the entire planet would be destroyed.
"You are currently the strongest person in the Space-Time Empire. Your cells and even your genes have very important significance. As long as you give me your blood, I can raise the Space-Time Empire's biological technology by a notch," Ma Xiu swore.
"You seem to have said this sentence once before," Ye Nan sneered, "Back then you asked me to give you the consciousness of the accident, and what was the result? You created a Space-Time Nest. Bah, that so-called Space-Time Nest, besides being able to be used to transport troops, what else can it do?"
Ye Nan thought of Eva's consciousness and felt it was a pity. Back then, he didn't know that Eva's consciousness could devour, so he handed Eva's consciousness to him after Ma Xiu promised. Every time he thought of it, he regretted it deeply. If time could flow backward, he would definitely have devoured Eva.
But he still had a thought in his heart, which was the thing Dr. Ma Xiu promised. But when he came back to see, damn, what kind of pit-father thing was that? That so-called Space-Time Nest was completely a transport gadget.
It was like he handed gold to Ma Xiu, hoping Ma Xiu would give him a diamond. Even if it wasn't a diamond, it should be a crystal. But Ma Xiu handed him a glass bead, which made him hate Ma Xiu to the bone.
"Now you actually dare to come and promise, and dare to ask me for blood? Go dream!" Ye Nan sneered. The blood he originally intended to hand to Dr. Ma Xiu, he didn't intend to hand over anymore.
These blood samples were all intercepted by him halfway. Although it was only a little bit, it contained the genes of various superheroes. He originally intended to let Ma Xiu research these blood samples, but thinking about it, forget it. He didn't want to let Ma Xiu ruin these blood samples, even though Ma Xiu had a level in the biological field that ordinary people couldn't reach.
"However..." Ye Nan turned to say, and then vomited, spitting out a drop of blood, "This is the blood of the Hillbilly Zombie family. It has always been wrapped by my mental power. Now it is time for it to come out."
"What is this thing?" Ma Xiu took a tube out of his pocket and carefully loaded the blood into it. Although he didn't know what this blood was, how could the things Ye Nan took out be trash?
"The Hillbilly Zombie family is a special life form I discovered on Earth-2. It is very peculiar. Even if only an arm or a head is left, it can act independently. It is very special," Ye Nan answered.
"The Hillbilly Zombie family from Earth-2?" Ma Xiu carefully put it away. He suddenly discovered that his degree of importance to Earth-2 was not enough. Although he had long known that there were many life forms from other universes on Planet-2, those life forms didn't have much use for biological research, because the powerful life forms inside were all incorporeal; they had already exceeded the scope of biology.
However, the blood Ye Nan handed him had great significance. From Ye Nan's description, he could know that the cells of this creature possessed independent consciousness.
What kind of concept was this? To give an example, on the battlefield, you beat an alien to death and chop it into eight pieces. When you are proud and cheering for your victory, the alien's severed limbs and remains launch an attack on you one after another, using alien viruses to infect you. How terrifying this was.
"It is not just this," Ma Xiu's eyes flashed with peculiar light, "It can be used for other purposes, if I can completely analyze it."
An idea emerged from Ma Xiu's heart, immediately making him itch in his heart. He couldn't wait to go back immediately and analyze the genes contained in the blood.
As for this fire dragon, Ma Xiu curled his lips and said, "This fire dragon doesn't have anything peculiar either. The only thing that makes people surprised is that it can breathe fire. After going back, I will break its secret and then transplant it onto the alien."
Having said that, Ma Xiu turned and left, not even wanting to look at the fire dragon. The full interest he originally had was all replaced by the blood of the Hillbilly Zombie family. For such a peculiar creature as the fire dragon, he already looked down on it.
After Ma Xiu left, the other biological experts dared to come over.
Looking at their appearance, Ye Nan suddenly laughed, "It looks like Ma Xiu's majesty in your hearts is very deep."
"Dr. Ma Xiu is learned in heaven and man. In the biological field, no one can compare with him." The one who spoke was an old pedant. He wore a white coat and a pair of reading glasses, leaned in front of the fire dragon, and observed carefully, "Si Mila said this fire dragon can breathe fire. It is simply too wonderful."
On Earth, it hadn't been heard that any creature could breathe fire from its mouth; at most, it was spitting venom.
"This kind of creature must not be a native life form of Earth." The old pedant reached a preliminary conclusion.
"They are from ancient Earth, who knows how many hundreds of millions of years ago. Legend has it that dinosaurs were burned to death by them. However, don't research this for the time being. First, analyze its genes for me and see if there are any similarities with Little Godzilla's genes."
Ye Nan called them here not to research how the fire dragon breathed fire. He let them come to research whether there were any similarities between the genes of the fire dragon and Godzilla, because this related to his future actions: whether to lean toward humans or toward the fire dragon.
"Wait a minute, don't disturb my research." The old pedant waved his hand, intending to drive Ye Nan away, and then greeted other researchers to come over, "You look, what did I discover?"
Other researchers heard this and immediately surrounded him, no longer paying attention to Ye Nan, this Emperor.
"You look, there are two glands in its mouth." The old pedant climbed into the fire dragon's mouth and stuck his head in, "What kind of substance is this?"
"It seems to be some kind of nitrated petroleum?"
"Nitrated petroleum? You didn't make a mistake, how can there be nitrated petroleum in the fire dragon's mouth."
"I am saying it is something similar to nitrated petroleum. Two special substances are mixed together. When breathing, and then spitting it out in one breath, it forms fire."
A group of researchers surrounded the fire dragon's head tightly, leaving Ye Nan alone outside watching them, full of helplessness.
"I have always heard about the fanatical attitude of scientists toward new things. I initially thought this attitude was worth advocating. It seems that everything has advantages and disadvantages." Ye Nan sighed, and it was only a sigh. He wouldn't be angry because these scientists were forgetful in their research, because that was not worth it.
"However, I am saying, shouldn't you think about the task I issued?" Ye Nan said lazily, "If you can't complete my task, I will slaughter this fire dragon and eat it."
As soon as Ye Nan's voice fell, the intense quarrel immediately stopped. The old pedant pushed everyone aside, ran to Ye Nan's side, and protested righteously, "No, this fire dragon is ours. You don't have the right to handle it."
Upon hearing this, Ye Nan immediately laughed, "I am the Emperor of the Space-Time Empire, and this fire dragon is also my prey. No matter what, I have the right to handle it."
As soon as the old pedant saw that coming hard wouldn't work, he immediately softened, "By the way, what did you say just now, let us do what, we will do it immediately, the equipment and everything are all here."
"Test the relationship between the fire dragon's genes and Little Godzilla's genes. See if there are any similarities between Godzilla's genes and the fire dragon's genes, and what relationship they have between them." (To be continued.) ===== CHAPTER 451 =====
