Homo sapiens

The reason why Li Qingye sighed just now.

It is because in the long process of evolution, there will always be mutations in some individuals, especially in the era of population explosion in the 21st century.

The increase in population naturally increases the probability of mutations.

According to Anthony and Christine, the Knights organization was first established after World War II in the last century, and then achieved great development during the Cold War.

At that time, America obtained many legacies and talents of the German Third Reich in Europa, including the super human project.

After the super human project was acquired by America, it was reorganized and localized and turned into the Human Special Abilities Research Institute. It was not until 1980 that it was renamed the current Knight.

Anthony has abnormal hearing, and his hearing is about four times that of ordinary people.

Christine, on the other hand, has abnormal vision. Her eyes can achieve a visual slowing down effect when she concentrates, so she was trained to be a micro-expression profiler.

According to the information provided by the two men, there are approximately more than 3,000 formal members of the Cavaliers. In addition, some potential children and teenagers are recruited into the Cavaliers' training camps every year.

However, among these people, the proportion of useful abilities is not high, probably less than 20%.

In Anthony's training camp, only about 24% of those who persisted and overcame genetic diseases.

Li Qingye was not surprised by this. After all, genetic mutants may not necessarily mutate in a good direction, but are more likely to mutate in a bad direction.

Even with so-called benign mutations, there are still some problems.

For example, Anthony's hearing is about four times that of ordinary people, which means that when he talks to ordinary people, he must work hard to overcome the thunderous sound. The slightest disturbance around him will make him feel very troubled.

Therefore, the room where Anthony sleeps must be a special soundproof room, and if he goes out to work, he must also wear sound-filtering headphones and sound-isolating earplugs.

Obviously, he cannot control the volume of the received sound by adjusting it himself like Li Qingye.

Christine is in the same situation. She often falls into a kind of chaos of time and space. Because she cannot accurately switch on and off the slow vision, she sometimes feels that her surroundings are slowing down, and sometimes she feels that the time around her is slowing down. accelerate.

Li Qingye looked through the genetic sequences of the two people and quickly found the abnormally expressed genes in the genetic sequences of the two people.

At this time, the Homo sapiens company's internal genetic database has collected the genetic sequences of hundreds of thousands of people. By comparing these genetic sequences, it is easy to find abnormal genes.

Li Qingye listed the abnormal genes of the two people separately, and then started the search function.

[YC-72 gene... matching results are 3...]

[YC-73 gene...the matching result is 1...]

[YC-74 gene... matching results are 4...]

Anthony's abnormal gene is a small fragment composed of 4 genes, while Christine's abnormal gene is a small fragment composed of 7 genes.

During the matching process, no identical small fragment was found, but an individual was found that had a 75% overlap with Anthony's abnormal gene fragment.

Christine found two, but the coincidence degree of one was three-sevenths, and the coincidence degree of the other was two-sevenths.

Take a look at the resumes of these three people.

The person who overlapped with Anthony was a deaf man from Hungsawady.

Of the two people who overlapped with Christine, one had no problems and the other had high myopia.

"Genetic diseases are indeed everywhere." He sighed helplessly.

Li Qingye then read the confessions of Anthony and the two, and learned from it that the Knights still retain some of the laboratories for the super human project back then, and these laboratories are still operating secretly to this day.

Although Anthony and the two did not know the specific locations of these laboratories or even what scientific research projects were being conducted internally, Li Qingye could guess some.

He is very clear about the evil nature of human beings.

Human scientific research in biology usually has only two purposes, to save or destroy human beings, it's that simple.

Taking the Knight's super human project as the basis for speculation, this organization's scientific research projects will most likely focus on the technological research and development of immortality, super brains, super powers, and genetically modified humans.

As for how far they have developed now, Li Qingye estimates that the knights have already conducted experiments on genetically modified humans.

After all, more than twenty years have passed since the first generation of genetically modified technology appeared. Judging from the other party's bottomless style, it is basically impossible to conduct experiments on genetically modified humans in secret.

However, genetically modified humans need more than ten years to grow. Even if they can be matured through hormones, it is estimated that it will take about 10 years.

Due to the immaturity of the first generation of transgenic technology, experimental subjects may suffer from off-target conditions and genetic diseases. It is estimated that it is unlikely to create super humans as expected.

But after the emergence of second-generation genetic recombination technology, it is no longer a problem to cultivate the expected transgenic humans.

The second gene recombination technology matured around 2011, which is only about 9 years ago.

Considering the need for initial testing, applying the technology to human genetic modification is estimated to start around 2015 at the earliest.

In other words, even if the Knight's super human laboratory breeds genetically modified babies, they will only be four or five years old at most.

It is difficult to come up with mature application technology for this kind of experiment without twenty years.

Li Qingye was not too worried about this. Now in the field of human genetic modification, he is considered second in the world, and no one dares to be considered first.

After all, he had genetically modified his own body, plus the experience accumulated by so many soldiers and experimental subjects.

Now even if Li Qingye transforms some super humans, it won't be a problem.

The question is why is he doing this?

In Li Qingye's view, the super human super should be reflected in the brain and intelligence, while the body is secondary.

As for transforming super humans with super brains, controlling these experimental subjects is a very difficult problem.

After all, humans with super brains will most likely not be willing to be Li Qingye's pawn, and will definitely find ways to remove the control methods on themselves.

The smarter a person is, the easier it is to think too much.

Therefore, at this stage, Li Qingye has no need to create super humans. Doing so would only increase internal uncertainty.

Now that the Homo sapiens company has his core brain, plus a lot of scientific research migrant workers, it is enough for initial use.

After all, he doesn't need to worry too much about scientific research talents. There are a lot of science and engineering graduates who can't find jobs in Southeast Asia, not to mention the millions of university science and engineering graduates in China every year.

As long as Homo sapiens companies are willing to spend money to recruit these high-quality talents, they don't need to put in the effort to train them.

So far, among the scientific researchers recruited by Homo sapiens and Qingye Group, 3,225 are from various parts of Southeast Asia and 5,206 are from China.

What is most valuable in the 21st century? Talent!

What is the least valuable thing in the 21st century? Still a talent!

With two world-class talent cultivation pools in Southeast Asia and China, how could Homo sapiens companies lack scientific research workers?
