It's just something like technology. In principle, there is no distinction between good and bad, and there is no distinction between good and evil, but in theory there are some technologies that are more dangerous. Easier to be used for evil purposes. The destructive power is even greater after being used up by others.
These are often the evil technologies that people think of, and the technology to unlock genetic locks, if used for evil, is also among the most destructive.
This is also one of the important reasons why the Atlanteans try to control the spread of their own technology as much as possible. Similar to unlocking the gene institute, a way to develop the potential of intelligent creatures to become stronger, if it is used without a bottom line, the success rate is not necessarily will be extremely low.
Because every intelligent creature can gain a foothold on a planet. Their individual potential must be huge.
Because the vast majority of intelligent creatures occupy a planet. They all must have a glorious past. At least they have defeated countless creatures living on the same planet as them. In the history of hundreds of millions of years of evolution, they have become the ultimate winner and stood at the top of the food chain.
This alone proves that there must be huge potential in their genes. The potential of some species may even be greater than that of humans. They may not have a direct jump improvement like unlocking the genetic lock, but there is a high probability. You can also gain a certain level of improvement during a crisis.
This is an intelligent creature that will almost certainly struggle to its death when faced with danger. To the outside world, Atlantis has announced a very low success rate for this death struggle-style improvement method. Among the public data from the outside world, The success rate is less than one percent. Only insiders who have actually participated in relevant projects and those who have signed a confidentiality agreement know about it. If the members of Atlantis really follow this path, they will not be told that they may experience the danger of death after birth, and they will keep it hidden until they reach adulthood, and every detail of their lives will be carefully planned towards life and death. With training in this direction, the success rate is over 90%, and the mortality rate is less than one in 10,000.
This process can be copied by most races in the universe. In other words, as long as the powerful thinking ability of the first level is mastered, most races can cultivate a high-quality population with huge knowledge without relying on great perseverance. , is also obtainable.
If you can accept a higher mortality rate and simply cultivate powerful soldiers, the technical threshold will be even lower. When the Lannos were in the spiritual cage world, technology had just touched nuclear weapons, and they still needed to learn from the local people in that world. When it came to mecha technology, it had already borrowed biochemical viruses from the Resident Evil world, and combined the genetic data of a large number of mutated individuals in that world to develop transformation surgery.
At that time, it was possible to cultivate the first level, and it was done in batches. When civilization was in crisis, when a large number of pole-devouring beasts invaded, and when apostle-level beings prepared to destroy mankind, the moment of crisis for the survival of all mankind broke out. The unprecedented potential has abruptly increased the success rate of the operation from less than 50% to 70% or even 80%.
But the price is that the operation fails and death is almost certain. It is a miracle created by insufficient skills and strong will instead. But it also proves from the side that if casualties are really ignored, it is not difficult to pile up the first level with numbers. Not as big as imagined.
Otherwise, it would not be so easy for various systems and spaces that travel through many spaces to cultivate a large number of reincarnators. For most spaces, although there are not many first-order ones, they are not considered Resources that are too scarce can only be considered as something that can be encountered but cannot be sought after reaching the second level.
The technical methods used by Drake can be considered quite crude. In theory, with the technological level of the earth and sufficient medical conditions, the success rate can theoretically be increased to close to 50%, and death will not be as likely as He is so terrifying that it is almost 90%, with a death rate of 20% to 30% at most.
Of course, even so, if the technology is made public, few people will take the initiative to participate in the experiment. Compared with the powerful power, more people are still willing to live well. You must know that even if you become a soldier on the battlefield, As long as it's not a meat grinder battlefield like World War I and World War II, the mortality rate rarely exceeds 10%.
However, the price of this huge mortality rate was not paid by Drake himself. He evaded the responsibilities that should have been borne by him, but gained power that did not belong to him, which made him not care about the lives of the people participating in the experiment at all. Life or death, it is this attitude of not caring that allows him to cultivate first-order people in large quantities with crude technology at the cost of countless people's lives.
There is a difference between the improvement of genetic locks and the improvement of willpower. The latter is often influenced by the cultural morality of the society in which it is located, and is more inclined to order and more willing to cooperate with others for mutual benefit in a stable social framework. Life.
As for the former, just look at the group of beings in the main god space. Breeding teams emerge in endlessly, and perverts appear one after another. Basically, all of those beings who have unlocked the genetic lock when they were on earth are Get a little crazy.
The genetic lock that places more emphasis on the quality of courage will more easily lead to collapse if it is not properly guided after being unlocked. This is why when the existence of the genetic institute is unlocked in the experiment, most of them will move towards it. Attack with Drake.
However, being able to unlock the genetic lock proved that these people had a strong will to survive. After learning that a chip that could remotely explode was implanted in their brains, each of them seemed to be honest. At least he openly followed Drake's instructions.
"What you have in front of you are instructions on how to cooperate with the symbiote. This complex procedure is almost impossible for ordinary people to complete. But you are no longer ordinary people. You have abilities far beyond ordinary people. In theory, He is absolutely capable of doing this kind of thing.”
The number of men that Drake has trained has grown to fifty, and the first batch of fifty people are all sitting in the culture chamber of the underground laboratory. Each individual's surface is filled with electrodes. Next, they have to follow the instructions in the instructions. Constantly control these electrodes to adjust your own physiological state until you reach a balance with the symbionts in your body. Only after the two parties complete the most basic cooperation and achieve a virtuous cycle can they borrow the power of the symbiosis.
This kind of thing can only be accomplished at the first level. Similarly, that is to say, after reaching the first level, there is no need to consider whether the symbiote is compatible with itself. Any symbiosis can be fused.
A symbiote was released from the glass-tube-like culture chamber. Like black mud, it quickly crawled in front of a genetically controlled person. Many people had already become blinded by the terrifying appearance of the alien creature. They were at a loss. After unlocking the genetic lock, their behavior was unpredictable. So before that, everyone's hands, feet, torso, and even necks were firmly fixed in the culture chamber by metal rings. With their current physical condition, even if they struggle, it is impossible to break free from the alloy shackles.
When these symbionts are exposed to the atmospheric environment, their lives are also seriously threatened. They immediately look for the nearest living body to parasitize. Most of the symbionts that have completed the parasitism find that the target they are parasitized is not suitable for them, and they It is not a kind-hearted species to begin with. In this environment where he is about to die, he cannot care about the principle of not harming the lives of other intelligent creatures in the agreement. These agreements are meaningful only if he is alive.
So they began to quickly and destructively absorb nutrients from the host's body to maintain their own survival. This caused the Gene Lock Warrior, who had already begun his death struggle, to instinctively control the electrodes on his body according to Drake's previous request, constantly stimulating his body, and adjusting his body to the point where it could be integrated with the symbiote.
Having gone through the most dangerous process of unlocking the genetic lock, no one among the fifty people who merged with the symbiote had any accidents this time. The only thing that gave Drake a headache was that his subordinates were not particularly obedient to discipline. , if you are a first-level person cultivated in Atlantis, you have grown up in a universally loving society, understand the relationship between people and society, and are willing to take the initiative to maintain these relationships.
When leaving the culture cabin, they would definitely be careful to ensure that they would not damage public property. However, these people were forced to unlock the genetic lock and installed bombs in their minds. If they were released, a Everyone has the potential to become a super villain. This group of chaotic and evil guys, after gaining power, decisively smashed their own training warehouse to pieces.
It was not until they were punished with electric shocks from the chips in their hearts and brains that they fell to the ground in pain, and then one by one calmed down. There is no doubt that these cultivation chambers will have to be rebuilt.
"Listen, you haven't completely controlled the symbiotes yet. The next step to control them is very simple. Have you seen the medicine you have on hand? This thing can make you feel happy. I believe you scumbags You must have come across these things before and know how to use them!
This thing can make you happy, and it can also make the symbionts who live with you happy. If they don't listen to you, you should quit this thing and stop injecting it into your own body. As long as you are better than the parasite in your body, The more symbionts can tolerate the withdrawal reaction, the more likely they will be submissive to you. "
This was actually the earliest method used by the Lannos to control the symbionts, but at that time they had stronger control over their own bodies. They did not need external injections of drugs to stimulate them, and could use their own bodies as factories to synthesize corresponding chemicals. While the symbiont's stimulation effect is better, the physiological harm is also smaller.
Although this method is not above board, it is quite fair on a certain level. The temptations faced by the symbiote and the host are at the same level. The feeling of addiction and withdrawal reactions are shared by both parties. Who can do it better? Whoever can endure the temptation will be the dominant one between the two parties, and there is no innate advantage to whoever has it.
Generally speaking, people who have the ability to voluntarily quit the latest types of drugs can basically actively control the symbiosis. If no one is restrained, everyone present will basically fall into drug abuse. , after all, those who underwent transformation through such extreme means were all from the chaotic evil camp, but when it comes to this level of willpower, they must all have it, so they injected the drug into their bodies without hesitation, and their faces He showed an expression of extreme enjoyment.
Among these fifty people, more than 80% of the symbionts could no longer endure the withdrawal reaction after twelve hours, took the initiative to beg for mercy from the host, and were willing to cooperate with all the host's requests.
The remaining ones didn't last a day. After all, these symbiotes were selected with the help of Riot. They were weak-willed, and none of them were nearly equivalent to first-order existences like Hydraulic and Venom.
Like the two named symbionts mentioned above, these people who have just unlocked the genetic lock cannot be controlled through stage reactions, and may even be manipulated in this way to become obedient. Puppet, Eddie had experienced that feeling not long ago. The momentary feeling almost made him feel happy, and the subsequent withdrawal reaction also made him scratch his head. Fortunately, the venom did not expect to use such a low-level method. The method used to control the host, allowing him to taste this feeling and then never give him any related stimulation again, allowing him to quit this drug dependence abruptly.
As for the first-order warriors trained by Drake, they are not so kind. Relying on their own power to control whether the drug is injected, they can unscrupulously control the symbionts that merge with themselves. Exploit them mercilessly.
This is a release of pressure and a transfer of hatred. They are also controlled by their bosses who use their lives as a threat. The simplest way to resolve this feeling of grievance is to find another inferior person and then use more force on him. Torture with cruel means.
This is also an important reason for the establishment of a strict hierarchical system in the workplace. If the boss treats employees unscrupulously, in order to relieve their psychological pressure, employees will treat newcomers with a lower level than themselves with the same attitude. Such a set of power The pyramid will gradually mature, and even become stable when driven by enough interests.
The fifty warriors in front of him are just the first batch of people that Drake has trained. Give him enough time, he can train more, and Tony and Steve are obviously a little slow in their movements. The security personnel of the Life Foundation In fact, I already felt something was wrong. There are fewer and fewer colleagues around me. No one knows why they were called away by their boss, and then they never show up again. The Life Foundation, which originally had thousands of security personnel and thousands of employees, has only disappeared in less than a week. , as if it were haunted, the peninsula turned into a dead city, so quiet that it was terrifying.
