"Well... judging from the current situation, the condition of this body can be said to be... uh... very good."

Catherine stood in the laboratory, looking at the "body" in front of her speechlessly.

There is no doubt that this body belongs to Catherine herself.

Although this body has skin that is completely different from ordinary people.

Although this body has a weird carapace.

Although this body has very obvious characteristics of animals and insects in some senses.

But it still belongs to Catherine's body.

The master of biology, Mr. Hayfrick, was talking to Catherine about the body that was soaked in the nutrient tank.

"Why does this happen?"

Catherine asked the sky speechlessly.

"In fact, there may be some relationship between this and retroviruses. I personally think that if someone can use their own will to control such a 'retrogene', such a situation may occur."

Some viruses can change human genes.

The simplest example is HIV.

HIV will attach itself to human DNA. From this point of view, the virus that came out of the Donggu laboratory is of the same origin.

But don’t forget, this is the 1980s, and HIV is not yet widely known.

Catherine seriously suspected that after the Donggu Laboratory discovered the reproduction mechanism of HIV, it began to use the principles of HIV to conduct experiments on the virus in the Donggu Laboratory.

However, although HIV will reverse-transcribe itself into DNA, it will not cause changes in the human body. But this is not the situation Catherine is facing now.

This terrifying biochemical virus can change everything to a great extent.

But Catherine's current... uh... thing that is suspected of being the "Queen of Blades", according to Hayfrick, is very likely to have been genetically modified by someone with personal consciousness.

Or maybe it would be better to call it genetic modulation.

"The alternating protein has a very good effect when it works. But if it is applied to ordinary people, such a miracle should be possible. The design of the person who carried out the transformation is really amazing! This person is simply a genius! Maybe I

This genetic modification should be better called a 'gene modulation project'. Oh, God, this is simply an invention that can change the world!"

What's going on? Shouldn't you tell me what's going on with this body? Mr. Hayfrick?

Why did you suddenly get high on yourself?

"Ahem...Mr. Hayfrick, what do you think?"

"Oh. Sorry, Miss Edson."

After Catherine recovered the body with a phone call, the body was handed over to Hayfrick who was still in the United States - Jenny was in Japan now.

Hayfrick is a true master in biology.

"I suspect that this discovery of ours is very likely to be able to change the entire world." Hayfrick said excitedly.

"Change the world?"

Catherine looked at this suspected Queen of Blades and felt a little like Alexander.

At this time, Hayfrick shook his head: "I'm not talking about the one in front of me. I'm talking about the existence that genetically modified it. I don't know who that person is, but if we can get this technology,

We can definitely change the world!"

"……Yeah?"

Catherine didn't think so.

"Yes, that's right, that's it." Hayfrick said excitedly: "Human beings are genetically defective."

"Wait. Which aspect are you talking about?" Catherine knew that the human body is not the most biologically appropriate "perfect" existence, but an existence with many flaws. But what exactly does Hayfrick know?

Catherine still didn't quite understand what they were talking about.

Sometimes Catherine really feels that these scientists have weird and absurd ideas in their minds. They are existences that are almost impossible to understand in every sense.

Hayfrick thought for a while and decided to give an example to Catherine: "For us humans, if the body wants to maintain normal functions, it needs 13 kinds of trace vitamins. If any one of them is missing, it will cause serious illness - for example,

Lack of vitamin A can lead to blindness, lack of vitamin B12 can lead to severe anemia, lack of vitamin D can lead to rickets, etc.”

"As early as 4 billion years ago, vitamins were already indispensable for primitive organisms. Primitive life could synthesize vitamins by itself, but some species have lost this ability during long-term evolution - such as us humans

.Species that cannot synthesize vitamins on their own must rely on other species to obtain vitamins.”

"Well, I understand that."

The "evolution" of organisms has no direction. Evolution is essentially a change caused by a copying error on the chromosome. This change may be good or bad.

Of course, being bad may not mean fatal. For example, the human body loses its ability to produce vitamin C, but because vitamin C is easily available in the surrounding environment, although this bad genetic mutation is retained, it is not.

It will not affect normal people's activities. Of course. Once vitamin C is lacking, terrible diseases such as sepsis will attack the human body.

"With the exception of vitamin D and vitamin K, we humans cannot make any other essential vitamins ourselves. Our ancestors seemed to be able to synthesize these vitamins, but we gradually lost this ability over the course of evolution - our

The ancestors of mammals who lived 100 million years ago never suffered from scurvy because they could synthesize vitamin C by themselves."

Hayfrick also explained this to Catherine.

"Hmm...I seem to understand a little bit. In other words...can we fix this defect?"

Hayfrick nodded: "Yes, that's it. Let me continue to use vitamin C as an example - even now, many vertebrates can actually synthesize vitamin C by themselves, and they still use the same set of genes. And for us

As for humans, we have these genes ourselves, so theoretically we should also be able to synthesize vitamin C."

"Theory..."

But in fact, the human body cannot do this at all.

"Yes." Hayfrick looked at the suspected Queen of Blades with fascination. This look made Catherine shudder. He continued: "But we humans are different from frogs and kangaroos. We are originally used to make vitamins.

The c gene - the "L-gulonolactone oxidase gene" - has a serious mutation, so we cannot synthesize the protein gulo enzyme, and therefore cannot produce vitamin C."

"So, what you want to do is to complete these defects in the human body one by one?" Catherine asked.

"Yes, genes, chromosomes, what fascinating words these are! Compared with the petty fuss before the Hive Laboratory, what we are going to do next is to really change the world! Change the existence of human beings

!”

It's indeed a bit exciting.

"Uh, does this allow you to control human appearance?"

Hayfrick was a little stunned when he heard what Catherine said, but he still replied: "Yes, this should be very simple."

"Oh~~" Catherine's eyes suddenly brightened: "That's similar to letting a man have a female frame, or letting a woman have the strength of a man. Can this also be done?"

Hayfrick was a little stunned by the question of Catherine not coming. He thought for a moment and then said: "It should be possible. But it may not be a good thing for men to have female skeletons.

, because the male body structure may not be able to adapt to the female skeleton, and in that case... the man's figure will definitely be very awkward."

Mr. Hayfrick, you are still looking at the world with old eyes! Don’t you know that in this world, there is a magical creature called a “transvestite”?

Catherine has decided to turn all the "abnormalities" still in Japan into beautiful girls and cute boys.

What Hayfrick just said clearly went into Catherine's heart. After she subconsciously ignored the last sentence, Catherine was already imagining how great it would be when such a wonderful situation really happened.

So cool!

"This plan is great. It is really a project that can change the world!" Catherine exclaimed: "You can start now! You can start immediately!"

"Ahem, Miss Edson. I have to remind you that we must find the real prisoner before we can possibly unravel the mystery."

"Well--"

Who on earth did such a thing?

"What should we do? Do you have a way to find that person?" Catherine asked tentatively.

"Sorry." Hayfrick shook his head: "But we heard that some intelligence seems to have appeared in Area 51. We have reason to suspect that what happened in Area 51 is very likely to be related to that being."

He handed a document to Catherine.

After Catherine looked at it carefully, she nodded immediately.

From this document, she did understand that on the day she switched to this monster-like body, there was a riot in Area 51. She had reason to suspect that there might be some relationship between this incident and that existence.

"Well, okay, I will have people investigate this matter - by the way, this plan can be approved. What do you think it should be called?"

"It has been thought of for a long time." Hayfrick said: "The name of this plan is called the Human Completion Plan."

"Wait, wait!" Catherine's face had turned into an embarrassing shape: "I think... uh, I just heard something terrible?"

Human completion plan?

Does this name mean "Blockhouse"?
