Lupine only had more than one million crystal coins and could only afford one gene potion from the Crystal Palace.
Ge Xu also had extensive research on marine life. When Lu Ping chose the gene potion, he consulted him many questions before making the final decision.
At this time, the "suburbs" of Crystal Palace.
In a private underwater house rented by a certain Lupine.
[Obtain 100% of the "Pacific Octopus" gene...]
Lu Ping took the gene potion and looked at the system prompts. He was a little surprised, because this bottle of gene potion had not been artificially deleted.
You know, this kind of thing happens. If a certain gene potion is confirmed by a large amount of experimental data and a certain gene fragment in it is very likely to cause adverse reactions in the human body, then when the potion is subsequently produced, this part of the gene fragment will naturally be artificially removed in advance.
Lu Ping had also purchased many gene potions from the Spark Organization before, among which, at least 60% of the gene potions had some genes deleted.
"Many marine creatures have certain regenerative abilities, and octopuses are the best among them." Lu Ping thought to himself, "I now have the third-level reorganization of the top combat power level available whether on land or underwater, but my body The regeneration speed is only equivalent to the second revolution... the regeneration ability can't keep up with the strength.
"But with the octopus gene, if it can be expressed at the same time as the green iguana's regeneration gene, my regeneration ability might be improved again... I just don't know to what extent it can be improved?"
Lupine began to try to integrate the newly acquired octopus genes into the [Smart Dolphin Form].
In fact, if you use Pandora's substance to forcibly fuse, you don't need to adjust the genetic ratio bit by bit, preset the expected plan, etc. It can be done in one second, and the fusion is mindless.
However, Lu Ping still prefers to slowly adjust the most suitable reorganization plan himself!
Just like when I played games in my previous life, I tried little by little.
Because first of all, Pandora's matter is not infinite. Although it seems to be sufficient today and there is still a lot of surplus, in the future when the reconfiguration becomes more complicated, there may still be a day when it is not enough;
Secondly, you can create it yourself to take advantage of the automatic optimization function of the creature editor! If you use Pandora substance to forcibly fuse, you will skip the step of optimizing the gene chain. It is like a building of building blocks. Without careful design, it will be piled higher and higher by relying on "external forces", such as leaning on the corner or external reinforcement brackets. , Lu Ping always feels uneasy with such high-rise buildings built with the help of external help!
And only you can load such a recombinant state. If it were anyone without Pandora's substance, no matter how many bottles of evolutionary serum you inject, it would be absolutely impossible for the transformation to be successful.
Lupine planned to manually create the optimal gene chain first, and then integrate it into Pandora's substance to simply enhance the effect.
This time it went more smoothly...
Lupine finally integrated 64% of the Pacific octopus genes into the form of the wise dolphin, including the parts related to regeneration ability, and the gene chain that became longer again was still very stable.
"Not bad, let's try loading it first." Lu Ping said secretly.
This is the northern suburbs of Crystal Palace! The underwater city of Crystal Palace occupies a circle on the seabed with a diameter of about 20 kilometers, and the straight-line distance from here to the city hall is about 11 kilometers. Lu Ping rented a house here specifically to avoid the Scarlet Dragon King Zhu Mei.
Lu Ping also asked Chu Zixue that the perspective of the undead's soul is actually similar to that of the human eye. It can see up to a few hundred meters and cannot penetrate physical obstacles, but it can see through virtual projections or color-changing camouflage.
The smart dolphin form loads and appears quickly.
The appearance still didn't seem to have changed much, but when Lupine used his flipper to wipe the knife prepared in advance and cut a bloody gash 30cm long and 5cm deep in the skin, it took only two breaths for this to appear. The huge wound healed and disappeared!
The skin of the wise dolphin has returned to smoothness without even a mark. Everything is as before.
"This regeneration speed..." Lupine turned his flippers over and over to observe, nodding slightly, "It is indeed the regeneration speed of the third level!"
"It's just..." A strange feeling gradually arose in Lu Ping's heart.
It was an indescribable weird feeling, as if my brain had changed from one room to two rooms and one living room, as if there was an extra space.
"Could it be that..." Lu Ping remembered some of the knowledge Dr. Ge told him about octopuses before.
An octopus has nine brains!
But although there are nine, in fact the largest and most developed brain inside the torso is the main brain and is responsible for most of the thinking.
The eight accessory brains are distributed among the eight tentacles and are also responsible for a very small amount of thinking, mainly how the tentacles bend and move, how the suction cups shrink and other subconscious motor behaviors. Its function is somewhat similar to the human "cerebellum" responsible for balance.
But unlike the human brain/cerebellum division of labor, octopuses have two separate memory systems.
The master brain has its own memory system! The eight accessory brains use another memory system together.
Lu Ping's strange feeling at this time was very much like having "an extra memory system"! If human consciousness is compared to a little person, then this little person originally lived in his own room, and is already familiar with where to put various things, how to access them, etc...
But at this time, it seemed that there was suddenly a "next door room", and the little conscious person could even poke his head in to see it, but it was empty and there was nothing there.
"This feeling is not strong enough." Lu Ping frowned slightly, "Is it because I only incorporate 64% of the octopus genes..."
He couldn't bear his curiosity, so he simply created a new recombinant form in the biological editor, using 100% octopus genes as the base!
Then Pandora's substance was used to strengthen 100% of human genes, and was forcibly integrated into it to allow it to be expressed.
The preview interface... shows a weird big octopus. After zooming in on the main torso, you can see that it contains a complete human brain and various human organs.
But at the same time, there are indeed eight accessory brains in the tentacles!
"Load slowly and take a look. If it's not right, just cancel the loading immediately." Lu Ping thought to himself.
He is more cautious about things involving human consciousness. He doesn't want to accidentally become a dual personality like Guo Yululun... When he integrated the Chinese white dolphin gene, he specifically set expectations to make the dolphin of brain genes must not be expressed.
However, the octopus's accessory brains are different. They are similar to the human cerebellum and only control simple movements and have no complex thinking ability. He is relatively relieved.
Loading with silent thoughts.
The form of the wise dolphin started from the tip of its tail and gradually differentiated into eight soft tentacles. This change spread little by little, and finally Lupine turned into a weird creature with a main body of about one meter in diameter and eight tentacles two or three meters long. Big octopus.
The big octopus clattered to the floor and rolled its eyes.
"What a magical feeling." Lu Ping exclaimed.
At this time, he finally clearly felt the "next door room". It was a separate room. If he wanted to, he could leave some memories and thoughts there.
However, in the "next door room", there were eight other "villains" at this time, but they were all very dull.
