Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

The ethics review team did not immediately come to a conclusion. After all, what Chen Xin said is only conceptual. When actual research is carried out, many things will be different from the initial assumptions.

Especially when it involves human modification and gene editing, it will have an extremely huge impact, and people who are not allowed to review the team are careless.

It's just that the people in the review team are still carefully discussing and reviewing Chen Xin's research, but the military people have already found Chen Xin first and learned about the super soldier transformation plan he proposed earlier.

The military also understands the problems and impacts brought about by human modification and gene editing, but the super soldiers described by Chen Xin still make the military inexorable and curious.

After all, isn't the guy in the movie who wore the Confederate flag on his body and killed World War II with a shield also a genetically modified person?

It would be tempting for the military if all the soldiers... no, even just a division or a special operations brigade could reach such a human-level combat capability.

Of course, the premise of the military's support for Chen Xin's research is that this research will not bring harm and adverse consequences.

"As far as the technology I have at present is concerned, achieving the combat power of the captain in the movie will not cause any adverse effects." Chen Xin still used the combat power standard he was familiar with when writing fan novels as an example, and sent a commissioner to the military. Explained: "Strictly speaking, genetic modification of this level is not called modification, but can only be regarded as strengthening, so that the human body's genes show the best state. This kind of strengthening is actually similar to the ability of genetically modified soybeans to enhance the ability to resist pests and diseases. Same.

As for whether there will be any adverse effects, I can only say that within three generations of inheritance, the individual will survive within 50 years without any problems. More follow-up effects require long-term experimental observation to draw more conclusions. . "

In fact, with the black technology shown by the system upgrade, it is very easy for Chen Xin to achieve genetic enhancement without side effects, but at this moment, no one will believe him when he says this.

So Chen Xin still gave a more conservative answer.

"Will there be a problem within three generations of inheritance?" Even the military, the first consideration is the issue of genetics and sequelae.

"Well, this result is obtained through calculation. As for what the consequences will be after the third generation, I currently lack a supercomputer and cannot calculate the possible consequences." Supercomputers can indeed be used for calculations in this regard, Chen said. Xin is not asking for a supercomputer, he is just stating a fact.

And after the scientific research base is built, it will definitely be equipped with supercomputers.

"Three generations... This is almost at least 50-70 years!" The military commissioner calculated the time a little and understood that Chen Xin said that the individual survived for 50 years, which is actually the same as the genetic time. .

"This time is not long, and the probability of a real problem is lower than the probability of the human body's own genetic mutation. In short, the probability of genetic enhancement problems is much lower than the probability of a normal person getting cancer. "Chen Xin gave a very typical comparative example, but he also understood that there is not much comparability in this way.

Although cancer has a high probability of getting sick, even everyone has the probability of getting cancer, but cancer is only a disease, and it is not contagious, and there is only one death at most, and its impact is limited.

But if there is a problem with genetic enhancement, it is likely to affect all individuals who have received genetic enhancement, even their children and grandchildren.

One cannot be too cautious in this matter.

The military commissioner did not have the right to make a decision, and he only recorded all the information after learning about the situation from Chen Xin, so as to be used for inquiries and discussions by the superiors.

Therefore, after asking questions about genetic enhancement, the military commissioner also asked Chen Xin's previously submitted plan to obtain the enhanced genes of wolves through genetic modification, which can be used to make more powerful super soldiers. The problem.

"Academician Chen, how did you come up with the idea of ​​using wolf genes to transform people? It's not a simple ethical issue, is it? It's not a good thing to say, it's a hybrid between humans and animals!" The military commissioner's words were already serious, after all It is the individual who rejects the transformation of man into a beast.

However, for this question, Chen Xin just touched his chin, then took out his notebook, opened a document and displayed it in front of the military commissioner.

This is the background setting and related information of the Space Wolf in Warhammer 40K, and it is also the inspiration for the entire transformation plan proposed by Chen Xin.

"This is the game setting, isn't it? Academician Chen, this is your source of inspiration? But the so-called space warrior transformation operation above is all nineteen operations to implant nineteen artificial organs, turning an ordinary person into a superman. , can this really be done?" The military commissioner did not have any ideas because Chen Xin came up with a game setting, but seriously evaluated the information and carefully judged if it was true Able to realize the impact of Space Marine transformation.

"If it's just a transformation operation, I can say that there is no problem." Chen Xin really dared to make this guarantee, because it is really not difficult to realize the related technology of space warrior transformation.

What is really difficult to understand is the cultivation of artificial organs, which is the root of the existence of Space Marines in Warhammer 40K - the gene-seed.

"That artificial organ... No wonder Academician Chen, you need genetic samples and live embryos from wolves, as well as human genetic modification!" The military commissioner had already understood what Chen Xin meant, and showed an expression of sudden realization.

Chen Xin nodded affirmatively, pointing to a portrait of a Space Marine on the computer and explaining to the military commissioner: "Gene seeds for cultivating artificial organs are created by genetic modification of wolves, and then cultivated from the gene seeds. Artificial organs, which are then surgically implanted into the modified human body.

Technically speaking, the human body's own genes will not be affected in this whole process, because the transformation operation is not to achieve the enhancement of Space Marines by modifying genes, but to affect the work of the original natural organs of the human body through the implanted artificial organs, thereby Achieving the strengthening of Space Marines will theoretically not affect the genes of the human body itself.

And this is also the reason why in the game setting, it takes a full ten years to complete all nineteen space warrior transformation operations, because this is not a mutation caused by genetic compilation, but a secondary development under the influence of artificial organs. "

The transformation of Space Marines is indeed not genetic modification, but rather simply and rudely stuffing a lot of artificial organs into the human body. After all, this is the technology of making soldiers, and Space Marines cannot reproduce offspring.

Of course, in many battle groups, the wolf group and the holy blood have been clearly genetically modified. One wants to drink wolf gene, and the other wants to drink holy blood. They all give themselves a foundation from the genetic level. After surgical transformation, in terms of combat effectiveness, the wolf regiment and holy blood are relatively more sturdy. The most representative of them are the werewolf Dalian and the death company. Interested friends can learn about them.
