Transcendent Journey

hong long long …

in the sky Spring thunder bursts, the first stage rain in 189 of the Haiyuan calendar came a little earlier than in previous years.

Stay temporarily in the [Witchcraft Garden] on Long Island without being affected by the outside weather at all. From start to finish are the most livable conditions.

Through…

Ivan’s hands are full of brilliant gold liquid, slowly flowing through the two cylindrical glass petri dishes filled with high-energy nutrient liquid in front of me, although The change is not obvious in the macro world, but in this process, the genetic sequence of the things in the petri dish has been adjusted indefinitely.

At this time, this gold solution compiled from the collection of all known organisms [golden chain] in the hands of the “living chemistry school” has undergone tremendous changes from the beginning.

Originally, after gathering gene fragments in giant dragon, thunderbird, demonized shark, demonized gray wolf…Ivan himself, Angie, elder sister, Olivia, this golden light is faint It seems that something concrete is about to be formed, but because the number of “puzzles” is still too small, it is always hard to see the whole picture.

But when Ivan and Angie worked together for a whole winter, they used the energy of [Bronze Talisman] (Quae’s life power) to continuously sacrifice [The Holy Grail of Blood]. After analyzing the blood of thousands of strong demonized creatures in Chemical Biology Encyclopedia.

Probably reaching a certain critical value, the faintly discernible thing finally revealed its truth. It is a long spear that looks like a double helix, with a long spiral handle but a double-edged tip.

It’s just that it’s still very illusory, it’s still far from being fully formed, and it’s even harder to predict what kind of abilities there will be after being fully formed. Two people speculated that it is not only because of the sequencing project of flesh and blood creatures, but also the long way to go, and that the elementary creatures have to follow up.

However, the [Golden Chain] alone is already very powerful in empowering genetic information.

“haha, it succeeded!”

Looking at the two cylindrical glass petri dishes, the two tumbling masses of mercury-like liquid, Ivan put away a puff in his hand Jin Ye smiled and patted her palms.

Olivia and Angie, who were already prepared in the laboratory, immediately surrounded them.

Two girls wearing the same white nightdresses stepping on wooden slippers, half bowed down their curvaceous bodies together, blinking their big eyes and looking curiously at these two third-rank biological armors independently completed by Ivan ——【Light and Magic Circuit】!

“Teacher, although this is biological armor, it looks more like an inorganic metal than’venom’. Is this really made of organelles?”

This is also the key to the analysis of the [Holy Grail of Blood], and it is also another independent carrier of genetic material in the organism-mitochondria in addition to nuclear DNA.

After exhausting most of the biological materials in this World, they can almost conclude that:

Mitochondria are the only places where biological cells carry out aerobic respiration, and they are also commonly found in this world. overwhelming majority An organelle in living organisms.

But the genetic material contained in it is completely different from the nuclear DNA in the nucleus.

Just because it is the same as the bacteria in the human intestine weighing more than one kilogram, they are also an outsider in nature, but they are one step closer and directly enter the inside of the cell.

Ivan does not have the energy to examine the deeper biological evolution of this World, but the memory in the brain can generally make inferences similar to the evolution of the blue star.

In Ancient Era, because of a coincidence, the oxygen produced by organisms such as cyanobacteria poisoned to death most of the microorganisms that did not need oxygen at that time, and also caused the biological history The first mass extinction.

Only a few bacteria have found their own unique method. Not only are they not poisoned to death, but they can use oxygen, a body with poison qi, to generate energy and survive.

Later, one of the surviving bacteria was swallowed by another ancient single-celled organism, but it was not digested and broken down. Instead, it continued to function in this single-celled organism.

At the same time, that single-celled organism has become not only immune to “poison qi” damage, but also gains much more energy than before, so that it can evolve more complex structures and possess more Various functions.

This is how we gallop on the broad and open road of biological evolution, leaving other creatures of the same age far behind.

This ancient single-celled organism later became the ancestor of humans and other “eukaryotes” (including plants, animals, and fungi), and the engulfed bacteria became cells Inside the mitochondria.

The ancient bacteria, renamed “mitochondria”, eventually reached a new “symbiotic relationship” with advanced organisms.

The mitochondria take in oxygen and fuel from the cell sap around them, allowing them to “burn” inside, and the chemical energy used to provide energy for all the activities in the cell that require energy. The effect is like a tiny engine in a cell.

Therefore, in a normal human body, each cell has an average of 1,000-2,000 mitochondria, while in extremely energy-consuming tissues such as the heart, brain, and retina, each cell contains 10,000 mitochondria.

The number of mitochondria in the physical transcender and the cells of various demonized organisms is even more exaggerated, and not only the quantity but also the quality is beyond the reach of mortals.

This is also one of the most important sources of power for many physical transcenders, including [Swordsman] whose root is the “magnetic field of life”.

Ivan, whose physical qualities have gradually reached the limit of the third rank, is a well-known figure among them. Because of the specialization, he is more powerful than many Knights who have turned to the path of will and virtue!

In addition to supplying energy, mitochondria also participate in other cellular activities. For example, they can control signal transmission between cells, cell differentiation, life and death cycles, etc. In other words, improving mitochondrial efficiency can also improve cells. Vitality prolongs the life of the cell.

Except for those wild wizards who didn’t have their predecessors to show the way, it is normal for the wizards of the orthodox school of wizard school to concurrently study Knight’s path in the early stage.

Whether it is Olivia or Angie, while having reached the senior level official wizard, their physical fitness has even reached Rank 2 Peak level first.

But like most wizards, it almost ends here. You can get promoted through the orthodox road, and you can go further without thinking about it.

However, with the accelerated progress of the [Golden Chain] research, it provides them with a new choice.

Although the generalization of the [bloodline plug-in] is still far away, Ivan is based on the ultimate empowerment of [Symbiosis Transformation] and [Golden Chain], and has completed all the limits that are only available in Rank 2 Peak. Various models of “Venom” Battle Armor [Symbiosis Battle Armor · Light Magic Circuit].

The most important thing is that as a semi-implanted symbiosis, the [Light and Magic Circuit] is much gentler than those [Activated Animal Skins] that once had independent consciousness, even if it’s physical fitness. Only the two girls of Rank 2 can also be equipped.

In fact, this new type of equipment was tailor-made for the two of them. It took Ivan, the upper wizard, to make constant adjustments to complete the masterpiece.

Generally speaking, the base sequence of mitochondrial DNA is the same in the offspring of a mother. However, it is also possible that there are two or more different base sequences in an individual’s body, which is called heterogeneity.

This situation is also common in the body of the ordinary person class.

And there are 37 genes in each mitochondria, they only encode 13 kinds of proteins, these proteins constitute the core function of mitochondria-the electron transport chain! The other 1,500 proteins that make up the mitochondria are encoded by 30,000 genes in the nucleus.

Therefore, mitochondrial DNA and nuclear DNA as it should be by rights will have a matching problem, which means that the proteins encoded by both parties must be able to cooperate with each other sufficiently so that the mitochondria can produce normal energy.

Relying on the current technology, using [Genetic Hound] to directly genetically modify their somatic cells is of course no problem. Olivia and Angie also trust his technology 100%.

But Ivan is very cautious about this kind of direct manipulation of human genes.

So.

Related to the mitochondria themselves are a kind of symbiosis that originated in ancient evolutionary history, he simply reproduced a large number of mitochondria belonging to [Swordsman] in his own body, and then compared their genetics to their genomes. The information has been adjusted accordingly.

While retaining the powerful effects, the adaptation rate of these mitochondria and their nuclear DNA can reach at least 96%.

It’s just that as a high-end customized product, every piece of [Symbiosis Battle Armor · Light Magic Circuit] requires Ivan’s great effort to make fine adjustments. In this world, it is also unique and unmatched.

Besides, the main raw material also contains the bloodline secret hidden in his body, so Ivan has no plans to produce the third one at all for the time being.

The same is true for the two girls. They are not sensitive to any foreign DNA except Ivan entering their cells, even if they can be stripped at any time.

Sneez——

The petri dish slowly rises, revealing the aura of the biological armor in it, turning around to look at Olivia and Angie, Ivan encourages:

“Come on, try it!”

“en!”

The two girls looked at each other and suppressed the slight tension in their hearts, and then confronted the light magic in front of them. Loop] slowly extend the hand palm.

next moment, the mercury-like light quality composed of small suns slowly blends into every cell in the body along their slender fingertips.

Soon, their already radiant and moisturized skin gradually revealed light from the inside to the outside, and weaved shining geometric stripes on the surface of their exposed skin.

In Ivan’s “spirituality vision”, the two powerful life force fields have become more and more shining.

“Well, it’s so warm!”

“I feel like an endless stream of power is pouring out of my body!”

Until half an hour later, Some long initial dressing was completed.

Slap——!

His eyes are burning like Ivan who is admiring two perfect works of art. He snapped his fingers and suggested to them:

“Go, let’s practice?”

hearing this, Olivia and Angie’s beautiful eyebrows were picked at the same time.
