Genetic Ascension of Reborn Fungi

With the assistance of the biological brain, not only did Lu Yuan's expansion speed accelerate, but there were no omissions when selecting genes.

A week later, Lu Yuan's figure was everywhere around the world, and a large number of dead animals and plants became Lu Yuan's best parasitic breeding ground.

Although nuclear radiation is still serious, Lu Yuan has been able to reduce the threat of nuclear radiation to a great extent through integrated genes.

"But this is not enough! Unless you hibernate, it will be difficult to survive this year without sunshine!" Lu Yuan thought.

Lu Yuan has already produced chloroplasts in his body, which means that even if all the green plants on the earth die, Lu Yuan can be self-sufficient through photosynthesis and will not die. But now that there is no sun in the nuclear winter, Lu Yuan will not die either. Method.

After all, without continuous and stable energy input, a biosphere cannot be maintained for a long time.

Although Lu Yuan has the hibernation gene in his hand, he can just hibernate until the nuclear winter passes, but Lu Yuan still hopes to find a way to survive the nuclear winter at the last moment.

After all, although the environment of nuclear winter is harsh, Lu Yuan believes that there are still creatures that can survive in such conditions.

A month later, humans have fully entered Fengbi's underground fortress to survive. Apart from some scavengers, Lu Yuan is the only living creature on the surface.

The entire earth is black, which is the color of Lu Yuan's bacteria.

In order to absorb the weak light that penetrates the atmosphere, Lu Yuan changed his bacterial community to black, which can better absorb sunlight and provide energy.

"It won't work. I can hold on for another half month at most. If I can't find the right genes after half a month, I will have to hibernate!" Lu Yuan thought anxiously.

In order to find the right genes, Lu Yuan even set foot on the North American continent, the continent with the highest nuclear radiation intensity during the war.

Ten days later, Lu Yuan discovered a mutated plant in the nuclear ruins. It was shaped a bit like an ivy. It would emit colorful light at night. Those who didn't know it thought it was a human lantern.

By devouring the genes of this mutant ivy, Lu Yuan finally gained the skills to survive in the harsh nuclear winter.

"Cells that are similar to radiation converters? Is this caused by mitochondrial mutation? It can actually directly convert the energy of nuclear radiation into biological energy for use!" Lu Yuan was shocked!

This is simply a change across the ages, from solar energy to nuclear energy! Such a creature can survive as long as it swallows nuclear energy!

You must know that there is a shortage of all kinds of energy in the universe, and the only thing that is not lacking is nuclear energy! Even solar energy is a type of nuclear energy. Such a creature can survive on any abandoned planet as long as there is radiation reaching that planet.

Unsaid, Lu Yuan directly edited this gene into the main body.

Through the swarm effect, soon all the sub-bacteria around the world had the ability to devour nuclear energy.

The nuclear radiation on the earth that was originally like poison to Lu Yuan turned into delicious food at this moment.

Fungi all over the earth began to consume nuclear energy and continued to grow!

Five months after humans disappeared from the earth, Lu Yuan's presence has completely covered the entire earth.

Especially the original North America, because of its rich energy, now Lu Yuan has moved his body in the Pacific to the center of the North American continent.

If you dig a thousand meters below the surface, you can see a mycelial biological brain with a diameter of 500 kilometers. This is where Lu Yuan's main consciousness is now.

By collecting various information left on the surface of human civilization, coupled with the super computing power of his ten biological brains, Lu Yuan is now a super organism with as much knowledge as the sea.

After optimizing his bacterial brain several times, Lu Yuan's computing power has exceeded ten to the fiftieth power of human supercomputing. Lu Yuan's biological computer has exceeded human imagination.

Lu Yuan's current plan is to integrate his genes and skills through nine biological assistant brains, develop a fungal civilization in the galaxy, and enable himself to go to heaven through fungal biotechnology as soon as possible.

The next step is to leave the earth and build a fungal Dyson sphere on the surface of the sun, which can absorb the energy of the sun as energy for the development of civilization.

As for humans on Earth? Through some of the bacteria that wandered into the underground fortress, Lu Yuan learned that they were not doing well.

Although it has only been three months, the food and water sources inside the fortress are still sufficient, but people's hearts are the most complicated things, and various conflicts inside have begun to intensify.

Lu Yuan felt that they would not be able to hold on until the gate of the fortress would be opened in a year.

Moreover, Lu Yuan looked at the external nuclear power plants that were being built on various continents, and he did not think that humans would still be able to survive normally on this planet in a year's time.

Although the current nuclear radiation concentration on the earth has slowly begun to decrease after Lu Yuan's large-scale absorption, the external nuclear power plants built subsequently will be densely distributed on all continents and become Lu Yuan's energy refueling station.

At that time, the concentration of nuclear radiation in the air will be dozens of times that of the nuclear explosion. Except for Lu Yuan and a few organisms that have mutated nuclear energy mitochondria, no other organisms on the entire earth can survive on such a nuclear energy planet. .

If today's human beings take the initiative to leave the hotbed and take a chance to mutate, they may be able to preserve a species, and human civilization may not be unable to continue in the future.

But if they still stay in the radiation-proof underground fortress, there will be no possibility of survival when they come out nine months later.

Lu Yuan naturally told the news to humans through the internal fungus. Although humans were shocked that the fungus actually had consciousness, they focused more on Lu Yuan's information.

"What should we do? That fungus said that if we go out in nine months, we will be dead! He has built a large number of external nuclear power plants in the outside world, and endless nuclear radiation will continue to radiate the entire earth through these nuclear power plants!"

"How could this happen? This devil fungus! Does he really not give us humans a way to survive at all!"

"He said that there is still a one-in-10,000 chance of surviving outside the underground fortress. Now that the nuclear radiation concentration outside has dropped to a minimum, when the nuclear power plant is built, there will be no chance to adapt slowly when we go out!"

Such remarks echoed in every underground fortress. In the end, the leaders of each fortress did not dare to decide the life and death of human civilization in one word, and could only let people choose for themselves.

"Stand on the left if you choose to fight for a chance of mutation! Stand on the right if you choose to stick to it! For those on the left, we will open the door and let you out. For those on the right, stay safe and don't bring up the idea of ​​leaving again!"

Many people do not believe the leader's words and think this is just a shocking scam. How can there be any self-aware fungi that can build an external nuclear power plant?

Does he, a fungus, know what nuclear energy is? Do you understand the basic principles of nuclear fission? Just build a nuclear power plant!

This is simply a scam done by the upper class to reduce material losses in the fortress.

With this idea in mind, not many people choose to go out, and some forts don’t even have one inside!

Of course Lu Yuan also saw it, but he couldn't control it. Giving them information would be an act of kindness, but he could drag them out to mutate? The success rate of mutation is so low. Even if they come out, not many of them will survive, so why bother.
