Epoch of Twilight

Human DNA has a total of three billion pairs of bases. If you can memorize all of them, even with Luo Yuan's 15 points of wisdom, it is completely impossible to do it. Even if you remove the meaningless DNA fragments that account for 98%, there are still 60 million base pairs. , which is still a huge number.

But in fact, there is no need to be so troublesome. The genetic material of this cell is basically based on Luo Yuan as a template. Except for the genes that were deliberately adjusted to avoid the same appearance before cloning, there are not many real genomes that have been changed.

Compared with Luo Yuan's own DNA, there are only eight more sets of genes between the two, and at the same time, there are 1,350 sets of genes that have been slightly adjusted and changed, ranging from one or two sets of base pairs to as many as The number is only a few hundred, and the remaining nearly 30,000 groups are exactly the same as his original genes, involving only 50,000 to 60,000 base pair changes in total.

To be precise, it is 56,456 pairs. Of course, this number is still very large, but for Luo Yuan, it can barely be remembered.

Time passed minute by minute, Luo Yuan had been immersed in the chromosomes, and it took a full three hours before he regained his mind.

He closed his eyes and remembered for a long time, then opened his eyes, his will was immersed in the cells again, and compared with each other, he found that the one in memory was accurate.

Luo Yuan raised his head, feeling a splitting headache in his brain, and exhaled lightly.

All preparations have been completed, and the body transformation can be started at any time, but after waiting for such a long time, he is not in a hurry, but before that, he must have a good night's rest, recharge his energy, and adjust to the best state .

He started the curvature flight and left here.

This cave is inside the mountain and is completely enclosed. It is safe, but it is not a place to rest.

And after Luo Yuan's three hours of breathing, the oxygen here is now extremely thin. Of course, even if Luo Yuan doesn't breathe at all, he can still support it for three or four hours, but when he wakes up, he will probably feel weak and dizzy. Not to mention recovering to the best condition, it is already very difficult to stand up. alright.

...

He flew out of the mountain, randomly found a tree hole that was only big enough for one person, and after killing all the insects and ants inside with arrogance, he got in, smelling the faint smell of corruption inside, curled up at the bottom of the tree hole, Close your eyes and fall asleep soon!

After sleeping for a full ten hours, it was already the early morning of the next day when I woke up.

He stretched himself, looked at the time, and walked out of the tree hole refreshed. The sun hadn't come out yet, and it was still pitch black here, only the siren-like roars of countless mutated beasts, coming from afar. It came, one after another.

But now these beast roars are no longer the deterrent to Luo Yuan, and now they are like ordinary background music in his heart, without any lingering in his mind. Except for some rare eighth-level creatures, the jungle has completely lost its mysterious veil in his eyes. It is almost the same as in the reconstruction area, and there is no danger in the past.

A mutated beast that had been busy all night without hunting food and was so hungry suddenly found Luo Yuan, its green eyes lit up slightly, and its body quickly crawled in the grass, slowly crawling towards...

Luo Yuan grinned. Naturally, he would not let go of this kind of automatic door-to-door food. In ten minutes, this mutant beast weighing several hundred kilograms became a piece of meat on the grill.

Luo went on a hike and ate a third of it, and kept the other half. He found a stream nearby, removed the parasites in it, filled his stomach with it, and then filled a bag full of peeled animal skins. dozens of kilograms of water, just in case.

Human body modification and genetic modification are just the first step.

For cells, genes are the supreme law that sets all the rules, and this law is quite strict and detailed, involving every activity of the cell, metabolism, birth, old age, sickness and death, without the slightest error.

If a gene finds itself out of tune with the cell, it immediately activates special mechanisms that stimulate the cell to divide, express the cells under its newly established rules, and end the life of the original mother cell.

Of course, if the mother cell is conscious, it will probably feel that it is more wronged than Dou E. It is clear that it is dedicated to its duties, conscientious, and completely obeys the rules set by the genes. Suddenly it became illegal, which is a disaster for no reason.

In other words, once the genetic modification is completed, Luo Yuan will immediately usher in a major cell renewal, and within a short period of time, all the cells in his whole body will have to be replaced. This time will be shorter than imagined, from being detected by the gene to start the replacement mechanism, within a few minutes, all cells will quickly complete division.

This intense splitting process not only needs to consume a lot of energy, but also needs a lot of material and water.

After carrying the prepared food and water on his back, Luo Yuan thought about it carefully and there was nothing wrong with it, so he immediately started the curvature flight and entered the mountain again.

The hustle and bustle outside completely disappeared, and everything became extremely silent.

However, at the moment when he was about to take the last step, he still hesitated a little. Although he had secretly experimented with this kind of genetic adjustment a few times and succeeded every time, he still felt a little bit in his heart when he really experimented with his own body. Faint.

Gene change is not a trivial matter, it is a change in the most fundamental rules of life, it seems to be less than one in 200,000 changes, but it is a drastic change to the body, once there is a mistake or expression error, it will be easy Then there will be deformities, becoming neither human nor ghost, and in severe cases, the soul will perish and the genes will collapse.

What's more, he has not yet fully grasped the brain.

But in the end Luo Yuan sighed, he had already reached this point, if he gave up again, all the energy he put in before would be in vain, no matter how dangerous this time was, he had to take a risk.

For the sake of caution, Luo Yuan carefully memorized the genes that needed to be changed again!

The next moment, his will sank into his body.

Luo Yuan's first part to transform was the sole of his foot, but before that, he needed to experiment. He quickly selected a skin cell on the sole of the foot. With a strong will of 19 points, he no longer needed him to take care of every detail. Adjustments are made for each base pair.

In particular, the memory of the base arrangement in the mind makes the spiritual power of will, which is to achieve what you want, changed from the original extensive and scattered to the finer details. The will power consumes less and the power of the will is deeper.

Luo Yuan just had a thought, and this cell has been easily transformed.

He scrutinized the strands of DNA on all chromosomes and found them to be accurate.

Seeing the success of the experiment, Luo Yuan immediately launched a large-scale transformation. He adjusted his microscopic vision, the cells rapidly shrank, and his field of vision enlarged. There was only one cell in front of him, and it quickly became a dense cluster of cells composed of pinpoint-sized cells.

The power of will spread out quickly, invisible and qualityless, lightless and soundless, but subtle, silently transforming the hundreds of thousands of cells in this area.

Seeing this kind of magnification, the transformation is still effective, Luo Yuan began to try a bolder magnification again.

At this time, he could no longer see the cells in the inner vision, all he could see was smooth flesh and tiny capillaries, and there were more than tens of millions of cells in the area covered by the will...

After only twenty minutes, his legs had been completely remodeled.

Then there are hands, skin, muscles, and finally the internal organs, spinal cord, and willpower is like a flood dam, which is rapidly consumed. Fortunately, his willpower has reached nineteen points, and his perception has seventeen points. Not only the quality but also the quantity have undergone drastic changes. If it was before, I am afraid that it would have been exhausted halfway.

Two hours later, his transformation gradually approached the neck, as well as the face and scalp.

When finally approaching the brain, the transformation had to be interrupted.

The will comes from one's own brain, and as if a person cannot see the back of his own head, the brain is still a forbidden area for the will to look inside, but he was clear about this before the transformation, and he had already considered it.

There are two options before him now.

One is to let it go, as long as it is an independent tissue with complete functions, even if its genes are different from the body's own genes, it is generally not a big problem and will not cause cell conflicts. For example, organ transplantation is a good For example, the body accepts other people's organs, as long as there is no rejection, it can also live well.

However, it is precisely this rejection and rejection that makes Luo Yuan have to consider the danger.

The human body will reject foreign substances, and the same is true for organs. Rejection is a behavior of biological self-protection. The human body's immune system can recognize self and non-self substances and produce antibodies to attack.

Of course, the brain is not a foreign object, but in the case of most of the genetic changes in the body, even if it is not a foreign object, it has become a foreign object. Medical organ transplant rejection can also be suppressed with drugs, so that the patient's body can gradually adapt. In the end, they merged and survived.

However, this situation was not suitable for him. He estimated that no drug could suppress his antibodies. Whether he could survive the rejection could only depend on luck.

The second method is to fully release the will and perform black-box operations on the brain without seeing the brain at all. Whether it succeeds depends on luck.

The first method is too negative. Even if the risk of rejection is not considered, keeping this area is a hidden danger after all. Luo Yuan naturally does not take it, and the second method is ten times and a hundred times more dangerous than the first method. It doesn't matter if the transformation is successful. The most fearful thing is that half of the gene has been modified, or there are errors or omissions in the gene. Once these errors and omissions are expressed, he may only have a dead end.

But no matter how dangerous it is, at the beginning of his transformation, he has already made a decision. There is no power that can be easily obtained. He must pass this level. Since it all depends on luck, it is better to take a risk, let alone , no matter the previous experiments or the transformation of oneself just now have proved one point.

As long as there is enough time, the will is strong enough, and you are not afraid of wasting, even an organization with hundreds of billions of cells, through the subconscious mind, the will can go deep into the chromosomes, and complete the transformation of all cells in the entire organization. It can be said that the possibility of success is extremely high .

Feeling that there was only one-third of the will left, Luo Yuan immediately closed his eyes and began to recover his will.

After a few hours, Luo Yuan stood up, his face sinking like water, and his face was serious.

Although the will has not yet reached its peak state, it has already recovered two-thirds. For the brain with only about 14 billion cells, accounting for only 0.028% of the total number of cells in the human body, these wills are completely sufficient.

He closed his eyes to avoid visual interference. Fortunately, it was extremely quiet and the environment was closed, which reduced the interference of other senses. After a long breath, his heart gradually calmed down, his heart was free from thoughts, and his thoughts were not disturbed. Immediately, his will began to slowly condense,

The cave, which was still invisible before, suddenly emitted a faint light, and it became brighter and brighter. He seemed to be a light man, illuminating this small cave as bright as day.

At the same time, a majestic and shocking atmosphere permeated.

Perhaps because of this critical moment of life and death, his will became more cohesive and pure than ever before.

The light with a liquid-like texture covered every inch of his skin, which was watery and looked crystal clear without any impurities.

It didn't last long, and soon, all the dissipated wills were instantly restrained, leaving only the head still emitting light, and immediately the light became more and more intense, and reached its peak after a few seconds.

The entire head is like a miniature sun, emitting a strong light, and even the hair begins to become transparent in this light.

What's more, in the vicinity of him, strands of double-helix DNA appeared in large numbers out of thin air like phantoms, flickering one after another, like projections.

This is the spillover of Luo Yuan's thoughts when he fully mobilized his will.

The whole process lasted for a full hour, and the transformation finally stopped until Luo Yuan exhausted all his willpower. He sat on the ground, clutching his head and feeling a splitting headache.

Sometimes I worry about not succeeding, my fearful hands and feet are cold, and sometimes my anxious expression keeps changing. Will is the valve to control emotions. Once the will is exhausted, emotions will lose their restraint.

However, Luo Yuan's strong physique allowed Luo Yuan to recover extremely quickly. After ten minutes, he had gradually controlled his emotions.

At this time, Luo Yuan suddenly felt a little itchy on the soles of his feet. His heart moved, and he quickly took off his shoes to take a look. He saw that the soles of his feet were slightly white, and a layer of tough dead skin had separated from his body, and the dead skin was still flowing along. The soles of the feet spread rapidly.

Cell division and replacement has begun!

Perhaps there is an unknown information transmission method between the genes of various cells. The speed of cell division is faster than Luo Yuan imagined. It is like the enriched uranium that started the chain reaction. The soles of the feet just split five minutes ago , and five minutes later, not only the feet, but also the body began to peel off.

Not only the epidermis is being replaced, but the internal organs of the body are also being replaced.

At the same time, a powerful and astonishing force slowly grew from Luo Yuan's body, and on the system property panel, the data representing his strength and physique also jumped rapidly.

He couldn't help moaning (harmoniously), his voice was thick and dull, with an indescribable sense of power, the whole mountain seemed to be trembling slightly.
