Chapter 879: Human Fear
The good news in this unfortunate situation is that Xu You completed the simulation process just now under an accelerated state.
Based on the actual speed, it would take at least another six months to cause very serious damage to the human body.
Judging from the current research progress of the entire project team on Martian cells, Xu You is very confident that the research can be completed before then.
After coming out of the brain simulation state, Xu You hesitated for a moment and didn't want to tell others about his simulation results.
Because such simulation results are so terrifying, even rigorously trained astronauts and top experts find it difficult to accept such results.
But if these results are deliberately concealed, it will not be beneficial to the progress of research.
After thinking about it, Xu You decided to discuss this matter with Lu Zhiyao first.
"Yaoyao, the situation is exactly as I described. Now I am a little hesitant about whether I should explain my simulation results to others."
After Lu Zhiyao thought about it, she replied to Xu You:
"I think we should tell everyone these predictions truthfully. Everyone has actually made preparations for the worst, and having these predictions will definitely be more beneficial to the research. Even if this may cause some fluctuations in everyone's emotions, I still think that this information should be shared truthfully."
Xu You also felt that this was a better choice and nodded heavily.
If it were Xu You himself, he would not want to be deceived by others at this time. He would rather know the real result, even if the result was very cruel.
At this time, Xu You was in despair, but he felt a little comfort in his heart.
Lu Zhiyao always gives him some advice when he is down, allowing Xu You to continue moving in the right direction.
After making the final decision, Xu You immediately notified everyone to hold an emergency meeting.
Shortly after Xu You announced the news, everyone came to the office of the space experiment group.
This meeting included not only experts from the space laboratory and members of the Mars exploration team, but also experts in biology and medicine who had not yet arrived at the space laboratory.
They will attend this meeting simultaneously online.
"Okay, I won't say much. According to my latest simulation results, the impact of the Martian cells on us this time is more serious than we imagined."
As he spoke, Xu You synchronized the corresponding simulation model to the large screen in the conference room.
"We can now confirm that the symptoms experienced by the members of the Mars exploration team are due to the influence of Martian cells. The ultimate goal of this behavior is to produce Martian cells in the human body and to allow them to grow and divide in the human body..."
Xu You didn't beat around the bush and went straight to his conclusion.
Sure enough, after Xu You said this, an unprecedented solemn atmosphere appeared in the conference hall.
No one had ever expected such an outcome and didn't know how to deal with such a situation.
Xu You did not respond to everyone's emotions, but continued with his story.
"I have not yet come to a definite conclusion on how these Martian cells affect the human body. What is certain is that in a dormant state with a cell shell, these Martian cells do not pose such a threat. But when they remove the cell structure and there are organisms nearby , even if the Martian cells do not come into direct contact with the organisms, they are capable of affecting other organisms..."
After hearing what Xu You said, everyone was even more shocked.
And this is exactly the same as Lu Zhiyao's previous guess.
"Academician Xu, are there really such terrifying creatures in the universe? You know, this is just a low-level single-celled organism. Even more advanced creatures have never had such terrifying abilities."
Hearing this, Xu You calmly retorted:
"The so-called high-level and low-level creatures are just wishful definitions made by humans. Many things that so-called low-level creatures can do are beyond the reach of us humans, even with our technology. There is no absolute distinction between high-level and low-level creatures , and what we don't know about the universe is far greater than what we know."
Xu You is not a professional biologist, but this also means that his research on biology will not fall into any framework and he can conduct research without any constraints.
If the information in the universe is an iceberg, then the little information that humans know is not even the tip of the iceberg.
After listening to Xu You's explanation, everyone gradually believed this fact.
At this time, everyone's fear about this matter gradually subsided.
In any case, everyone had prepared for the worst before coming here.
Whether it is the members of the Mars exploration team or the first group of biological and medical experts heading to the space laboratory station, everyone is risking their lives to participate in this mission.
Even if you become a breeding ground for Martian cells and your body is gradually devoured by Martian cells, it sounds very scary, but in essence, the worst outcome is death.
Dedicating one's life for the Blue Star civilization is an honorable thing in any case, and it is a worthy death.
After talking about the worst things, Xu You changed the subject.
"Okay, I've said the worst. Although this result is enough to scare us, it's actually not as bad as we imagined. According to my simulation results, it will take at least six months from the onset of symptoms to the actual emergence of Martian cells from the human body. At our current research speed, I am fully confident that we will achieve a breakthrough in Martian cell research before then, saving everyone from any life-threatening danger."
Xu You said this not just to give everyone some comfort, but because he really had full confidence in this.
"Old Xu, don't worry. We are absolutely not afraid of Martian cells. None of us is afraid of death, but what makes us feel more resolute is our trust in you, Xu You, and in many experts. This little thing is nothing. Let's focus all our energy on research."
Hu Shucheng spoke his thoughts passionately, which made everyone's spirits rise.
