Chapter 31 Gene Sculptor

The genes of living things have heredity and special directionality. Normal hereditary earth civilization has been explored clearly, and after accepting the knowledge of civilization from Tianmo Continent. Only then did we realize that the reason why genes could be deciphered and modified was almost an act of defiance.

Some low-level organisms have a small number of genes, so they spend their lives doing repetitive things. The most basic things are survival and reproduction.

They don't need much wisdom, they just have memories engraved in genes, like fixed code fragments, which can only do fixed things forever. To break this fixed fragment of genes, apart from going through countless time of natural evolution, , and can also obtain early evolution under the interference of high-level intelligent creatures.

This is the principle of unlocking the genetic code. The number of human genes is huge. Without the words and deeds of generations of parents, and without the accumulation of knowledge from generation to generation, we can only be reduced to many natural machines that only know how to survive and reproduce.

From the moment they are born, some creatures do not need the words and deeds of their parents, but they also have basic fixed fragments engraved in their genes that know how to perform, how to survive and reproduce.

From the moment they were born, they existed to reproduce the next generation.

Three days later, after adapting to the new environment, Yuanben Academy also started formal teaching.

In the theoretical stage, each class is taught by a machine teacher instead.

The college is labeled with the word "engraved" and divides more than 80,000 students into more than 800 classes with 100 students in each class. They are numbered from 1 to 860 respectively.

As for why the word "engraved" is used as the label, the college has not yet given a detailed answer.

At this time, at 8 o'clock in the morning, each class started its first lesson.

Carve 1 class.

The noisy class was waiting for the teacher to arrive. When a man stepped into the classroom, the noisy classroom immediately became quiet.

"Welcome to Yuanben Academy. I am your instructor for the theoretical stage. My name is Earth Teaching Robot No. 1. You can call me Mr. One. This is the mark of our same type of instructor." Robot No. 1 walked to the podium. Introduce yourself calmly. Then he reached out and pointed to a number mark 1 on his arm.

As soon as Mr. Yi finished his introduction, someone raised their hands to ask questions.

"Teacher, are you really a robot? You can't even hear a mechanical voice. At least on the surface, you are no different from us~"

"My appearance is just to make you look normal, and also to prevent you from feeling strange and unnecessary discomfort." Mr. Yi replied calmly, but there was no emotion in his words. , just like normal communication.

"I don't believe it. You didn't find someone to impersonate you, did you?" Someone else asked in a booing voice.

Mr. Yi was silent for a moment and said, "I have a way to make you believe it."

As he spoke, Mr. Yi's body surface seemed to be covered with a layer of fluid material. In full view of everyone, he slowly changed from a male appearance to a female appearance.

"Oh...Teacher, can you just teach like this?" Many people in the class expressed surprise. Someone gave advice right away.

"Okay, there are mostly male animals in this class, which is understandable. Then, we will start the first class." Mr. Yi met the physical appearance requirements of most students, and then started the class. Then the room darkened, and an identical three-dimensional projection appeared on the desk in front of each student. The thing in the three-dimensional projection is a simulated gene fragment map.

"This is the lowest indivisible basic structure of most highly intelligent creatures in the universe. What we are going to learn starts from genes. Starting from genes, we will carry out work in two dimensions, upward and downward, to break the genetic limitations of organisms. Theoretical knowledge. Can anyone understand what I mean by the two dimensions of upward and downward?" Mr. 1 asked the question. Most of the people in the classroom stared at the genetic simulation diagram on the three-dimensional projection and fell into a brief pause. of trance. Their thinking still closely followed the guidance of Mr. Yi's words. Facing the teacher's sudden question, it seemed that he failed to maintain a safe distance and rear-ended the car. The classroom fell into deathly silence...

After a brief silence, someone raised their hand. He was a fat man, and he was also the first human to enter Yuanben Academy.

"According to what I understand, the two dimensions of upward and downward that you mentioned, teacher, should refer to the two dimensions of micro and macro. You just said that starting from the gene, upward, it should be the more microscopic dimensions that make up the gene. The material, downward, is the macroscopic manifestation of gene expression. For example, with genes as the smallest unit, they come together to form the nucleus, and because the nucleus is like a control center, complete cells are generated from the nucleus. Other structures. Okay, I understand this much for now~"

The fat man expressed his understanding, but the classroom was still silent. Some people followed Fatty's explanation and came to their own understanding, while others were completely confused and didn't know what to do.

"Wow~ There is such a smart person in my class! The answer is very good, pretty much the same. At least the theory of expression is correct." Mr. 1 praised the fat man with satisfaction.

Later, Mr. Yi added: "This classmate, please sit down first. I believe you also know some basic genetic knowledge. Genes are also called genetic factors. They carry the basic information that constitutes life. For those who don't understand, class is over. Later, go online to check up your knowledge. I won’t go into details. What we are going to learn is to change the structure of genes at the existing microscopic level that constitutes basic biological information. The modified genes will It carries a large amount of information other than the information that constitutes basic life. If it is not easy to understand, then there is a word that you can definitely understand. That is - gene carving."

After Mr. 1 finished speaking, everyone in the class immediately realized something, as if they were enlightened.

"In our world, you can become a cultivator after turning on the genetic code, and there is a special title - genetic sculptor. Using the knowledge of the people on earth as a reference, after turning on the genetic code, you can have super powers in science fiction. Ability or spell. In fact, the title is not important. What is important is that from now on, highly intelligent creatures will have relatively more time to explore more things. Including the mysteries of the universe and the origin of organisms..." After Mr. Yi finished speaking, everyone looked at All lit up. Isn't this what people often fantasize about breaking the shackles of genes? Some people also understand it as mechanical ascension.

"Then, teacher, when can we unlock the genetic code?" the fat man asked.

"There is no rush, the foundation is not solid, and the built building will be crumbling. You need to spend a year to learn theoretical knowledge, and then prepare to open the genetic code. Moreover, the cost of opening the genetic code is too high. In the solar system, there are many special The substance has not yet been found, and it is not possible to create the most basic transformation solution - base fluid. The academy is trying to develop the solar system as soon as possible to find minerals that can be extracted. You'd better study the theory with peace of mind. After all, your basic knowledge is very poor, and with us, you are all You have been exposed to this knowledge since the enlightenment stage. You need to digest and understand a huge amount of knowledge, and this is just the summary of the key points. For other content, you need to go to the library to check it out yourself."

After Mr. 1 finished explaining, the get out of class was over before he knew it. Everyone was still unfinished, and they didn’t expect that an hour and a half would go by so quickly.

At the same time that Yuanben Academy opened, the Kingdom of Paradise in the far west also began to build their academy after accepting the other two Tianmo Continent teams. Externally, the college they founded is called Evergreen College.
