No matter how they thought about it, they would never think that the monster in the video was a black snapper!
“He Xingzhou, are you kidding me? It’s not April Fool’s Day Today!” Dong Chen was already a little angry. His attitude towards He Xingzhou could be considered lenient. If the other students were to joke with him like this, he would immediately start to reprimand them.
“Alright, stop fooling around,” Zhang Boyan said. “Go do what you need to do!”
“Professors, I really didn’t intentionally cause trouble,” He Xingzhou continued to emphasize, “This mutated monster is currently in a biological laboratory in the school’s biological experiment building. I can bring you to see him. If I lie, even if the school expels me, I won’t have any complaints!”
Hearing He Xingzhou’s serious tone, both of them were confused. He Xingzhou was not an ordinary student. He was a genius who knew when to think and act.
Although he was usually quite lively, he would not dare to play tricks on his teachers and joke about his future!
“Are you sure?” Dong Chen asked.
“I’m sure!” He Xingzhou said, “The two members of the mutated biology research team are still there!”
“Dean, I request to find a few biology professors to go over and take a look! Other than mutant creatures, I have also written a research report on Zerg genes. I hope that it can be submitted to the National Security Bureau!”
As a key national university, Beijing University of Science and technology had quite a number of biology professors. They must have some understanding and research on mutant creatures.
Among them were the academicians of the two national academies. If he Xingzhou could get their approval, his report would be even more convincing!
The two looked at each other. Zhang Boyan stood up and said, “Okay, let’s go and see what’s going on.”
Dong Chen said, “There’s no need to call the biology department professor for now. Let’s go and take a look first.”
He Xingzhou led the way. The biological experimental building was not far from here. Soon, he Xingzhou brought the two of them to the experimental building.
Until now, the two of them still did not quite believe it. If it were not for He Xingzhou’s credibility as a guarantee, they definitely would not have come.
At the entrance of the laboratory, they saw a female student. Her expression was not very good as she guarded the door.
“Professors, this is the place,” He Xingzhou said. He then asked Jiang Chan, “Did anything happen?”
Jiang Chan said in a low voice, “That monster is very fierce. It gets agitated when it sees us.”
She said to Dong Chen and Zhang Boyan, “Professors, please be mentally prepared. The monster is very aggressive toward people. Don’t be scared by it!”
“I’ve seen a nuclear explosion before. How can I be scared by it?” Zhang Boyan smiled and said, “I have to see it. What kind of trick are you playing?”
As he said that, he walked straight into the laboratory.
In the laboratory, Wu Rui was guarding this place.
It turned out that the cage of Black Snapper No. 2 was covered with a piece of black cloth. Zhang Boyan said, “Is this the place?”
“Yes.” Wu Rui nodded and said, “Teacher, this monster is crazy when it sees people. You have to stay away from it.”
“Pull it open!” Dong Chen also walked in.
Wu Rui looked at the cage and nodded slightly. He didn’t dare to pull it with his hands. Instead, he used a long rod to pull open the black cloth.
Dong Chen and Zhang Boyan’s attention were all focused on the cage. The moment the black cloth fell, they saw a fierce figure crash into the cage. A low, hoarse roar was emitted from his throat, filled with anger and violence!
Dong Chen was shocked and took two steps back. Zhang Boyan was also a little shocked. If they hadn’t been mentally prepared, they would have really suffered a heart attack!
They saw that the monster in the cage was exactly the same as the one in He Xingzhou’s previous video!
Watching it live and watching it on the phone were two completely different things. They could see the sharp bone spikes on the back of this fellow, its mouth full of sawtooth-like teeth, its pair of red eyes, hear its angry roar, and see its movement. They could smell a stench that carried the smell of the sea and blood!
This feeling of facing it head-on was really terrible. It was like a man facing a wild tiger. Even if it was locked in a cage, they still had a sense of psychological fear!
Zhang Boyan immediately exclaimed in shock, “There really is such a monster!”
Although he was a professor in the physics department, as a top scholar over 60 years old, he also had a lot of knowledge about biology.
He had never known that there was such a creature in the world that combined the characteristics of marine fish and mammalian carnivores, but it was not any known amphibian!
“How could there be such a thing in the school? How did you get it here?” Dong Chen was still in shock and asked.
He Xingzhou explained, “It’s the Black Snapper No. 2. After being stimulated by nuclear radiation, it underwent a big mutation. In fact, both Black Snapper No. 1 and No. 3 mutated, but the mutation speed is not as fast as it is.”
“We recorded their appearance here every day.”
He Xingzhou turned on the computer and let the two watch the experimental records. Every day, they took photos and saved biological material samples such as blood and scales.
The two carefully looked at the records, and their expressions gradually became solemn because they saw that the monster was indeed a mutated black snapper that was only 200 millimeters long in the beginning!
After a few weeks of mutation, it had become what it was now.
He Xingzhou said, “According to my research, there is a gene in this mutated creature that I call the Zerg gene. This gene is like a genetic virus, or it can be considered a parasitic gene.”
“When it is stimulated by an external condition or when the conditions are right, it will take over and control the body of the organism, evolving it into a Zerg monster.”
“I’ve written down the experimental process and results in detail in a thesis. I’ve also built a preliminary model of the evolution of the Zerg gene.
“This gene does not only exist in this mutated black snapper. According to the information we have found, other mutated organisms also have this Zerg gene.”
“Theoretically speaking, once they mutate into Zerg monsters, their physiological structure will be completely overturned, or even reconstructed. Their attacking intent is extremely strong, and their brain capacity is rapidly expanding. It is possible that they possess high intelligence! In addition, the scales of these monsters are very hard. They are able to resist fire and even the attack of bullets. There are also many special abilities that I have not detected yet.”
“Professors, think about it. If a large number of these Zerg monsters appear in the world, what will happen?”
After He Xingzhou finished speaking, their expressions changed drastically. Regardless of whether He Xingzhou’s deduction was accurate or not, the situation in front of them had indeed made them aware of the danger.
Zhang Boyan immediately asked, “Do these genes have any effect on humans? Do they carry viruses? Will they infect humans?”
He Xingzhou shook his head and said, “No viruses have been found so far. It’s possible that some mutated organisms may carry viruses. Don’t worry, professors. The laboratory has been cleaned and checked, and no viruses have been found.”
Dong Chen took a deep breath and said, “If I didn’t see it with my own eyes, I would never believe it!”
“But the living examples are right in front of me. I have to believe it!”
“This matter is indeed very serious! We must take action immediately!”
