Chapter 523 Treatment and Treatment
"A clone is only a few months old. Almost all of their knowledge and common sense is instilled through a 'learning device'. It only takes 14 days from incubation to 'maturity'..."
In the medical room of the Amber, Guleva summarized several key points of what Zhang Daye and Misaka said. Of course, it was only information about the physical condition, and Zhang Daye did not mention anything about Academy City.
Gureva re-examined Misaka and asked, "Could this be a clone soldier who escaped from the Germa Corps in the North Sea?"
"It has nothing to do with Germa, but I'd like to get some research materials from them to see if they can be of use." Zhang Da also said, "Of course, if you have a solution, I won't have to bother with it."
It takes five years for Germa 66 to produce a batch of 20-year-old clone soldiers, which should be different from the technology of Academy City.
If Judge knew that there was a drug that could 'ripen' clones and shorten the five years to two or three weeks, he would probably try his best to get Misaka back for research. As for the issue of lifespan, in his eyes, soldiers are consumables. A shelf life of one or two years is enough. What's the point of lifespan?
So after thinking calmly these days, Zhang Da felt that there was not much hope on the Germa side.
"Wait, wait." Zhang Da also suddenly discovered his blind spot. "Germa's clone army shouldn't be something everyone knows, right?"
"Hehehe... You know that too, don't you?" Gulewa said with a grin, "There's no such thing as a completely confidential secret in this world. Instead of discussing these boring things, it's better to talk about this child's health."
Could this old woman have some terrifying background? Zhang Da stopped his wandering thoughts and asked, "Do you have any solution?"
"To solve her problem, I need to do two things. The first is to balance the growth-promoting hormones in her body, and the second is to adjust the rate of cell division." Guleva held up two fingers. "I can basically do both of these things with medication, but..."
"What?" Zhang Da was also a little nervous. What he feared most was the doctor saying the word "but".
"But even this would only extend her lifespan slightly. To reach the level of a normal human, I'm afraid her 'bloodline factor' would need to be adjusted."
"Unfortunately, Vegapunk, who discovered the bloodline factor, now works for the World Government. Furthermore, the bloodline factor is also known as the 'blueprint of life.' Because research in this area is so dangerous, it has become almost taboo."
"Even you don't understand?" Zhang Da even suspected whether this 131-year-old old woman had been in the Rocks Pirates, or knew Old Bay when she was young.
"Don't look at me like that. I wouldn't cure a disease only halfway just to hide something." Gulewa opened a bottle of fine wine Zhang Da had given her. "With my current skills, I can probably only help her live five to ten years longer. Is that an acceptable outcome?"
With so little knowledge of the genetics, achieving this must have been quite challenging, right? Zhang Da also felt that this was acceptable. At least it would buy him enough time to try other methods.
However, Zhang Da did not rush to help Misaka make a decision, but asked: "How about it, Misaka, do you think it is acceptable?"
"Let me be clear, I'm not asking you to cooperate with the experiment, nor am I ordering you to do anything. You should have heard everything we just said, right? Your will will determine your future."
"Would you like to spend more time with us next time?"
"Hee..." Gulewa smiled. She admired the kid a little, but as a doctor, she also had her own opinions. She took out a scalpel and twirled it between her fingers. "Let me be clear, there are only two ways for my patients to disappear from my sight: either they complete the treatment or they die. Don't even think about escaping!"
"Misaka has 9,982 battles against opponents who would have died if caught. If she were to engage in a chase battle with a target over 130 years old, she's confident she could survive. "Beep~" Misaka analyzed.
"..." Misaka's words were quite revealing, and Gureva was a little surprised. She had expected Misaka's life to be miserable, but not this bad. She was only three months old, but she had nearly ten thousand battles under her belt. Did she have to fight over a hundred battles a day?
If this little girl wasn't lying, then the environment she grew up in was horribly cruel.
"So what's your decision, are you going to run away?"
"No, Misaka is willing to accept treatment. Misaka likes her current life very much and hopes to continue traveling with everyone. Beep~ Misaka insisted that she was just answering the questions and not expressing her inner feelings."
"Okay, I heard your answer." Zhang Da also smiled and said, "Then Dr. Gu Lewa, I'll trouble you next."
Gulewa did not start preparing medicine immediately because her medicine box only contained commonly used medicines, and there were many medicinal herbs that she needed to go home to get or even collect.
So Zhang Da also borrowed the flag monsters Jin Erpeng and Ma Laowu from Ye Yan. One of them can carry people flying and has excellent eyesight, and the other has a keen sense of smell and can communicate with animals. They should be able to help when looking for herbs.
…
Wapol did not come out to make trouble today because he was sick with a bad cold.
Last night, I had just eaten a hot barbecue when a tornado blew me up into the sky. I don’t know how many kilometers I flew before falling down and hanging on the branch of a cedar tree.
Wapol fluttered his short legs dazedly and called for help.
But no one paid any attention to him because his staff, administrative officers and soldiers were all dizzy from the tornado. Some of them, like Wapol, were hanging on trees, while others were buried headfirst in the snow.
The others were busy with their own affairs, so Wapol had to save himself. He tried to twist his body and swallowed the upper half of the tree on which he was hanging in a very unscientific posture.
So Wapol also plunged into the thick snow.
Then, a big mouth emerged from the snow and closed with a click. Wapol swallowed the snow that buried him directly. After chewing it for a few times, he spat out two people with a "Pah" sound.
"Useless things, you actually want me to save you!"
"So His Majesty the King is much greater than us." Staff Officer Jess's words made Wapol happy, and then he and the affairs officer Kromalimon gathered the soldiers together.
When Doruton arrived, some soldiers were digging for their companions, while others were trying to climb trees to rescue people.
Wapol has already taken Jace and Cromalimon back to the palace. In his words, how could a king wait for his soldiers in the cold wind?
Without a word, Doruton joined the excavation team and returned to the palace only after rescuing everyone.
Then he received good news - the king had a bad cold.
In other words, even with Doctor 20's treatment, the king would not be able to go out and harm civilians for at least a few days. Doruton almost laughed out loud.
