Umbrella Corporation - Chapter 368
c370 Humans and Nature
After spending a little time introducing the working principle of the gluttonous demon generator, the people attending the online meeting were ashamed. Let the demons eat their answers while they enjoy the energy brought by the demons. Is this a new way of playing?
Well, it’s not wrong to say that humans are demons. After all, humans can be very scary sometimes. Who is the demon? !
And what human rights are there to talk about with demons? If these demons can be turned into obedient dogs, demon slaves will definitely be sold in multiple universes.
If the human grandfather does not step on the heads of demons when traveling, he will be unworthy of his high status!
If there are no ores in hell, or if resources can be used, they can only find ways to squeeze the resources of demons.
If the invasion of hell is inevitable, then they must seriously consider the cost and benefits of invading hell in advance.
The Umbrella Group is currently in a state of overproduction and needs to find a way to release excess production capacity. War is a good way, but the cost must be proportional to the return.
Hell may be more dangerous than the zombie world. The casualty rate of training in hell may be greater, and there are more uncertainties, so it cannot be used for training.
Moreover, hell has an erosive effect on people’s spirit. Hell is like a mountain of shit that you have to step on. If you can’t get around it, you can only find a way to make the mountain of shit play its own value.
The new material flowing to Mars is one of the values, and the gluttonous demon generator is also one of the values. The early stage is mainly unmanned exploration and archaeological research. The remaining value must be completed before exploration.
The meeting ended after establishing the goal of exploring hell in the future. Ultron turned around and looked at Duncan who came to the Lookout.
Duncan was holding a glass container containing mercury-like new substances in his hand, looking at the substances inside.
He had a strange feeling in his heart. He felt that as long as he reached out and touched these things, he could absorb them into his body. He was very curious about what effect it would have after inhaling them, so he wanted to try it.
Doing such a brainless thing must be studied, so he brought back the new material slurry brought to the world of Resident Evil and prepared to try it under Ultron’s care.
Touching the mercury-like substance, if handled in time, may only lose an arm, and a new one can be transplanted, but if he doesn’t touch it, he can’t sleep well.
It seemed that there was a voice in his heart urging him to touch the mercury-like slurry quickly, and the problem would be solved by touching it!
“Okay, let’s start now.”
After the meeting, Ultron prepared a laser cutting machine for Duncan, which could automatically cut off Duncan’s right arm after the instrument sounded an alarm, and the wound would not bleed heavily because the flesh would be burned by the laser.
After this round, Duncan was a little unsure. If the feeling was not too strong and affected his normal life, he would not try this self-harm behavior.
The mercury-like slurry has not yet been fully explored for use, and it is not certain whether it will have an impact on people, so this is a very risky behavior.
Ultron is very interested in this, because this feeling also belongs to the category of metaphysics. His obsession with mysticism allows him to try various possibilities day and night, and he once again won the title of the group’s first model worker.
“Okay, let’s start!”
Take a deep breath to adjust your mood, Duncan rolled up his sleeves, put his right arm on the cutting table, and the mercury-like substance was exposed in the lid that had been opened long ago, and you only need to extend your fingers slightly to touch it.
“Let’s get started!” Ultron stared at Duncan’s right hand. He was not nervous, but he was doing his best. He stopped all the unimportant work, for fear of freezing when controlling the machine.
No one knew about this little experiment except the person involved and him. Duncan also ran to do the experiment without telling Alice. If he told others that he was going to take the risk of doing such a thing, he would definitely be opposed.
It’s not that he can’t do it, but it’s troublesome to talk to others.
Now Duncan stretched out his index finger and slowly approached the mercury-like substance in the container. It was rare that his heart was not accelerating because of the reproduction of life.
The finger fell and finally came into contact with the new substance. Suddenly, Ultron captured the reduction of the new substance and immediately stared and shouted, “Danger!”
Stop!
The red laser flashed across, and Duncan’s right arm was completely cut off. He was still in a daze, but his face turned purple. He gritted his teeth and said, “Help me connect my arm. I know what happened. There’s no danger.”
“Are you sure?”
“Very sure!”
“Okay!”
Ultron worked for a while, and with the delicate operation of a photolithography machine, he quickly helped Duncan connect his severed right hand. After a few injections of healing medicine, it was exactly the same as before it was cut off, and even the pain disappeared completely.
The moment he came into contact with the new substance, Duncan suddenly understood the role of absorbing these mercury-like substances. For unknown reasons, it can help him reduce the CD of opening the portal.
Just absorbing a part of the new substance can speed up the opening of the portal to the new world.
After hearing the explanation, Ultron nodded thoughtfully, “The new substance can indeed affect space, and no toxicity has been found so far, but for safety reasons, let’s proceed step by step from small to large amounts.”
Starting with a small amount of the new substance, Duncan touched the new substance with his body and continuously absorbed the new substance into his body. He could clearly feel that the magical power that led him to open the portal to another dimension was gradually recovering.
His feeling was right. The new substance found on Mars could indeed have an effect on him. ♬♦ ♦♧
But he needed more to complete a cross-world charging.
Ultron happily brought three tons of new substances to Duncan, and attached various detection instruments to Duncan. It was found that the new substances turned into invisible energy and dissipated in the body after flowing into Duncan’s brain.
Maybe it was absorbed, and the energy might be absorbed by something more metaphysical like the soul.
Regardless of whether it was or not, this provided a new idea for Ultron’s research, and Duncan seemed to have accumulated enough power to open the portal to the next world. It seemed that he still had to wait for 2 to 3 years, which was much faster than the original 32 years.
He asked Ultron to keep this matter secret, and then returned to the world of Resident Evil to think about the anti-invasion of hell.
Passing through the portal, entering the office with decoration close to the future, he saw Alice sitting in the office processing documents at a glance.
Time is long, and people will always learn something different, such as handling official documents.
Alice took over some work when she was free. After all, now that his career is big, Duncan no longer has the mind to run around.
He lived a life like a retired old cadre and rarely handled everything in the new world personally.
Seeing Duncan emerge from the portal, Alice looked up and saw Duncan, with a slight smile on her face.
…
The research on Mars is still going on. After confirming that the new substance has some kind of magical power to teleport and jump in space, the research team of the Star Lookout is like being pointed in the direction, avoiding a lot of wrong answers, and making great progress in the plane teleportation method mentioned in the stone tablet inscription.
They successfully used the help of demons and stone tablets to locate and open a small portal to another plane of hell.
Then Tony led a new research, using the principle of space lasso and a new substance named auran slurry to create a dimensional lasso that can teleport across dimensions.
The dimensional lasso can teleport people or objects in an area to a machine in another plane. Even though Tony led the research, it took two and a half years to complete.
The use of new substances and human technology that has been advanced by Cybertron technology can only touch the cross-dimensional field.
The emergence of the Dimensional Lasso has successfully connected multiple worlds on a larger scale. The resources produced in different worlds can be transferred to the Resident Evil world for transit without the need for fixed portals.
This does not mean that the group no longer needs Duncan. The fixed portal connecting the two worlds is the key to the normal operation of the Dimensional Lasso.
This invention is of great significance to the group, and even more so to the loose multi-world alliance. Cross-world travel is no longer a game for high-end players, but a popular service that everyone can access.
Another round of grand scene appears!
People cheered for this round of strong and turbulent waves, which opened the trend of world travel.
The group and Duncan are used to running back and forth, completely ignoring the differences in the world except for specific events. After multiple rounds of battle royale, the tiny germs successfully spread across the plane through the crowd, and five or six earths suffered together.
It’s not that the people who run around are affected. Now, except for the weird world humans who joined the community late, people in other worlds are already new humans with a lifespan of nearly 300 years.
This crisis mainly affected animals that were in close contact with humans. The cross-world fusion of pathogens began to kill all kinds of livestock and pets raised by humans on a large scale.
This epidemic outside of humans instantly swept across multiple dimensions of the Earth. No one knew how long the incubation period was. It started with pets and eventually spread to livestock.
Large farms and customs have special quarantine departments. Although they found extra bacteria on animals, they did not pay enough attention because they did not find any impact on the animals’ normal activities.
Scientists who are used to traveling through the world without any impact were influenced by inertial thinking and thought that the dimensional lasso would isolate all pathogens like the stable portal opened by Duncan. This led to the end of the incubation period of the pathogens and the large-scale death of animals when it was too late.
Veterinary drugs were manufactured in a hurry, but because the pathogens can survive on inorganic matter for many days, disinfection became a plan that was uncertain whether to be implemented.
Animals and humans have become a topic of discussion among people in many worlds, and this involves a sci-fi conjecture: the relationship between humans heading towards the stars and animals on Earth?
Livestock, poultry or companion animals are all indispensable parts of human society. In this crisis, they are the most seriously injured.
Cats and dogs that should have spent their old age died suddenly, and livestock and poultry that should have been slaughtered for meat were also forced to be culled on a large scale.
Although such large-scale culling is often done when avian influenza and animal plague emerge, at this moment, when people’s vision is separated from the rapidly developing technology, they suddenly discover that these animals have not progressed with the progress of human life level, and they have questions that they never think about when they are busy.
The earth now belongs completely to humans. Animals are like vassals of humans, machines without the right to speak, and are completely at the mercy of humans.
The situation of animals before humans dominated their own evolution was actually similar, but now there are more people who have enough food and people who have nothing to do, so it is easy to have different thoughts.
Topics around people and nature, people and animals began to spread, and animal protection organizations that had disappeared for many years reappeared. They could not oppose the great union of the planes, and they were quite satisfied with their own living conditions and did not say anything radical.
Humans do not lack energy, and they have done a good job in environmental protection. The compressed living space of animals has been compensated by the large living space opened up in the desert prevention work.
The animal protection organization just published: Animals’ lives are also lives, and animals must be treated better… and it would be even better if animals could evolve!
Some Fury fans even asked the biological department to transform the form of animals so that people can have a more perfect animal partner, and many people also agreed with this suggestion. Not to mention making animals human, but at least to increase their lifespan and accompany people for a longer time.
Seeing the boiling public opinion and various messy suggestions on the Internet, Duncan was also quite speechless. He was also thinking about the same thing.
The biological weapons department could have given furry animals human body size and even human IQ and vocal organs a long time ago, but this was too against the sky. Except for the unconscious individuals created experimentally, they did not go deep into that aspect.
But now these netizens actually want Fury, which can no longer be explained as outrageous. Normal human interactions can’t satisfy you, right!
It is not possible to transform organisms, at least people should not touch them.
Giving the same treatment to the native life on Earth, given the current development of mankind, it is possible to try.
The surging germ crisis has killed at least thousands of animals, the kind that has completely exterminated them…
It is too late to save them, and we can only use genes to breed a new batch later.
Now we have to discuss a question, should we wait until all the animals die and then breed clones from the genetic laboratory and release them into nature, or use T-type enhanced serum to inject animals directly?
There are only two solutions, the former is more rational, and the latter is naive and romantic.
The universal T-type enhanced serum for humans is specially made based on human genes. The semi-mechanical transformed animals of the biomechanical weapons department have customized enhanced serum. Changes at the genetic level have never been universal, and T-type enhanced serum is not a real magic medicine that can make the earth’s ecosystem ascend collectively.
Saving the species living on Earth is actually a false proposition. Humans do not actually need to maintain species diversity. Advanced technology can fully withstand a series of chain reactions caused by excessive single species.
It is not that there has never been a mass extinction of species on Earth. Without anyone, the Earth is still the same Earth.
If there are no bees for pollination, there are still mechanical bees for artificial pollination. If there are no predators and predators, there can be human intervention.
Herbivores have lived with humans for hundreds and thousands of years, and they live well in their homes, too?
Humans really don’t care that much about the various animals that serve as seasonings in nature. Raising a group of good-looking ones in the zoo for people to appreciate and play with is enough to satisfy the mentality of abundance and abundance, and it is also enough to satisfy the self-touching sympathy that some people radiate.
