Chapter 864: Powerful Self-Repair Ability
In fact, the reason why Xu You temporarily stopped participating in the exploration of Mars was to free up time and energy to concentrate on studying the special hibernation mechanism of this creature.
"I wonder how strong the defense capability of this cell shell structure is. Let me test it carefully."
Thinking of this, Xu You opened his brain simulation space and began to conduct further tests on these cells.
Soon, Xu You created countless such cells in the simulated space of his brain.
Next, Xu You changed the environmental conditions, making them more harsh.
As a result, these cells immediately generated a cell shell structure and entered a state of suspended animation.
The reaction speed of these cells was faster than Xu You had imagined. While the environment was still changing, they had already completed the process of generating the cell shell structure , putting themselves in a safe state in advance.
"It's really a very cautious creature. No wonder it can survive in the harsh environment of Mars." Xu Youxin said.
Next, Xu You made changes to the simulated space in the brain to test the ultimate resistance of this cell shell mechanism, trying to destroy this special structure.
But when Xu You tried to destroy this cell shell structure in various ways, he was surprised to find that this cell shell structure was even stronger than Xu You had imagined.
"Even ordinary thermal weapons can't destroy this cell shell structure... This thing is really more terrifying than I imagined ."
This is just a very primitive creature that appears in the natural world of Mars.
If this kind of creature evolved over a longer period of time, or if some artificial modifications were made based on their characteristics, it would likely develop even more terrifying properties.
"In the known biological world of Blue Planet, there has never been a similar creature, nor a structure similar to a cell shell. It seems that the development trajectories of life on different planets are indeed different."
Xu You knew that if similar creatures had existed on the Blue Planet, there would most likely be certain traces left.
After all, the vitality of this creature is so tenacious that even if it has died due to some special circumstances, at least some signs of its existence can be detected.
Coming out of the simulated space in his brain, Xu You felt that he still had countless ideas that he wanted to explore about this special creature.
At this time, there was still no new news from Hu Shucheng on Mars. Xu You knew that these creatures had not yet revived.
Just when Xu You was thinking about which angle to start his research from, he heard a knock on the door.
"Come in!"
Hearing Xu You's voice, the office door was opened.
Xu You saw that the person who came in was very familiar.
It turned out to be Lou Song.
"Academician Xu, I came here uninvited this time. I wonder if you welcome me? If not, I will leave now. "
Lou Song joked with Xu You in his usual way. Xu You waved his hands and said:
"Welcome, of course you are welcome. If I don't welcome you, you won't be able to show up outside my office door."
Although Xu You didn't think Lou Song would come over at this time, he didn't completely deny this possibility.
In fact, this is something unexpected but reasonable.
Long before, Xu You had told Cui Ying that if Lou Song wanted to come to see him, she could give Lou Song the green light, and he didn't even need to greet Xu You in advance.
After all, Lou Song and Xu You have a special relationship, and Lou Song is a rare genius who is proficient in mathematics, informatics and other subjects. He is one of Xu You's favorite people to communicate with.
After joking, Lou Song started talking about serious matters.
"Xu You, I heard from Lin Shi that you have made many new discoveries on Mars, and since you are not exploring Mars for the time being, I wanted to come to you to learn about the situation. How is it, can you tell me something?"
"Of course, there are many issues that I wanted to discuss with you, but I didn't expect you to come here at the right time."
As he spoke, Xu You told Lou Song about everyone's discoveries on Mars in recent days and the progress of their research on this single-celled organism.
"These single-celled organisms have not yet recovered, but according to my estimation, they should be able to regain their vitality within a month or so..."
Lou Song listened to Xu You's story carefully, and at the same time he was checking the various information about this creature in Xu You's computer.
In fact, even if Lou Song did not come over on his own initiative, Xu You also hoped to find Lou Song as soon as possible and have a good discussion with him about the relevant situation.
Every time Lou Song discussed important issues with Xu You, he could put forward giving Xu You a broader perspective.
Xu You knew that Lou Song would not let him down this time either.
Sure enough, after listening to all the details told by Xu You, Lou Song seemed to be thinking about something. After thinking for a while, he said to Xu You:
"Xu You, I think we may be able to use this creature to study ways to revive those extinct creatures."
Hearing Lou Song's words, Xu You was also a little surprised and asked quickly:
"Lou Song, why did you come to such an inference?"
"I think that the reason why this organism can stay dormant for such a long time is not just relying on this structure you call the cell shell. They may have some other ways to repair their cells, even if only the DNA is left."
After hearing what Lou Song said, Xu You seemed to open up his mind all of a sudden and started to deduce in his brain.
Soon, Xu You completed his deduction.
The results of the deduction proved Lou Song's conjecture very well. In addition to the special cell shell, this organism does have some other abilities.
When the cell structure is damaged, this type of cell can repair itself more quickly.
Although this function is not unique, the repair speed and degree of this Martian cell far exceed those of various single-cell organisms on the Blue Planet.
At this point, Xu You had to admit that Lou Song did have a very strong insight and was always able to find some blind spots that Xu You himself could not find.
"How about it, Xu You, have you verified my hypothesis through your amazing simulation ability? "
