Chapter 277 Signaling Hormones
Ye Bai gradually looked at them one by one through the eyes of insight.
Finally he found a pet beast that could evolve into a powerful iron-clad ant queen.
This pet beast is larger than the average powerful armored ant. It is white and fat and looks like a piglet waiting to be slaughtered.
Evolutionary Route 1: Powerful Iron-clad Queen: You need to take the pheromone secreted by the queen to be able to generate a queen. 】
Ye Bai
Oh my God, doesn't this become a question of which came first, the chicken or the egg?
To become a queen, the Ironclad ant must take the pheromone secreted by the queen.
But now I don't have a queen ant or pheromones, so what should I do?
Ye Bai's brain was running at high speed, and he was thinking about how to solve this problem.
Could it be that there is someone in the Imperial Capital Research Institute who specializes in studying ant signaling hormones?
So Ye Bai borrowed Zhang Lingxue's account and searched carefully in the school's system.
As expected, some people are also conducting research on ant-shaped alien beasts.
Moreover, we are studying the effects of hormones on ant-type alien animals.
Ye Bai felt that this guy must have signaling hormones secreted by the queen ant in his hands.
When Ye Bai came to the door, the doctor who studies ants warmly entertained Ye Bai.
“Hello, I'm Wang Bo. I specialize in studying the effects of signaling hormones on ant-shaped alien beasts.”
Wang Bo took Ye Bai to visit his entire laboratory, where there was a hill hollowed out by ants.
Countless thumb-sized ants were walking in and out of the hill.
“I study bullet fire ants.”
“This is the smallest ant-shaped alien beast in the world.”
“Can be used as a sniper rifle bullet.”
“But it's not in the same category as drill ants and bomb ants.”
Wang Bo introduced.
“I don't know the purpose of your visit to me?”
After some pleasantries, Wang Bo finally asked this question.
“I need the hormone secreted by the queen ant. I wonder if Wang Bo can extract it here.”
“The price is negotiable.”
Ye Bai stated his purpose.
Wang Bo suddenly looked confused.
Ye Bai's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Wang Bo didn't have one here either?
That's going to be difficult!
Wang Bo seemed to see Ye Bai's inner thoughts: "No, I have hormones secreted by the queen ant here, but it may not be of much help to your research."
“For one thing, different ants secrete different signaling hormones. It's possible that this group can do it but another group can't.”
“Second, my bullet ants are so big, so the queen is only about the size of a thumb.”
“There may not even be one milliliter of these signaling hormones. Will it help your pet?”
Wang Bo is skeptical about this. After all, scientific researchers must proceed from reality and cannot violate the natural growth laws.
The signaling hormones provided by Wang Bo were no less than a drop in the bucket for Ye Bai's research.
But who would have thought that Lan Fa next to Ye Bai had a very abnormal talent for copying?
It's just a signaling hormone. As long as there are enough crystal nuclei, Blue Hair can be copied.
“Wang Bo, this secreted hormone is very helpful to me. I hope to use it to do a little research.”
“Of course I will buy it from you at the market price.”
Wang Bo shook his head: "No, I'll give it to you directly."
He stood up and took out a small test tube from a refrigerator.
At the bottom of the test tube, there is a drop of blue liquid.
This is the signaling hormone secreted by the queen ant.
“This signaling hormone must be stored at low temperature. When the temperature is high, problems will arise with the active enzyme substances inside.”
“If you encounter any problems in research, you can come and ask me.”
“I learned this in ants, and I am an expert.”
Wang Bo felt a little proud.
He immediately put the drop of signaling hormone into a small refrigerator.
“It takes about twenty minutes from my laboratory to yours.”
“You can protect signaling hormones with this freezer.”
The sun was shining brightly outside, and Ye Bai was in a good mood at this time.
At this moment, news came from the school's medical room, asking Ye Bai to go to the Teito University Medical Center as soon as possible.
Ye Bai hurriedly put the precious signaling hormones into the refrigerator in his laboratory.
And told Lanfa to copy the signaling hormone, and then hurried away with Xiaohan in his arms.
Teito University Medical Center is a central hospital located under Teito University, dedicated to serving teachers and students of Teito University.
There are five buildings in total, each with more than ten floors.
Ye Bai came to the inpatient department.
Here he saw the chief whose consciousness had returned to normal.
The chief's name is Jiang Dongsheng, and he looks very good at this time.
At this time, he was holding a cup of tea, sipping it in small sips.
“Ye Bai, I can call you that.”
“My name is Jiang Dongsheng, a sixth-level beast pet master.”
“He is the chief senior officer of Teito University.”
“I want to ask you a favor.”
“The spores that parasitize my body also appear in the body of my pet beast.”
“Ye Bai, I hope you can help me.”
“This is my reward for you.”
Jiang Dongsheng handed a small box to Ye Bai.
Ye Bai calmly opened it and took a peek.
There is a beautiful orchid blooming in the small box.
Golden petals form a dragon with beards and tail.
The white leaves of the orchid are like auspicious clouds.
He recognized it at a glance. It was a very expensive orchid - the Dragon God Orchid.
Each petal of the Dragon God Orchid can strengthen the soul. Like being cursed by a soul-based beast, the Dragon God Orchid's petals can easily dispel it.
“How can this be so embarrassing?”
Ye Bai directly stuffed the Dragon God Orchid into the pet space.
This made Jiang Dongsheng speechless.
"What's your pet's condition now? Is it as serious as yours?"
Jiang Dongsheng was parasitized by spores at that time and almost turned into a "vegetative state".
The fact that he is able to recover now is all thanks to Ye Bai.
“Some pet beasts are in better condition, but some pet beasts are not, especially earth and water beasts, which are completely restrained by spores.”
“I hope Ye Bai can help me deal with it as soon as possible.”
Jiang Dongsheng said to Ye Bai.
"good."
“But I need time to prepare. Let's do this. Let the doctor at the medical center do a full-body examination on your pet first.”
"How about I prepare corresponding treatment plans based on these reports?"
Jiang Dongsheng nodded: "Okay, please hurry up. I feel that the pet beast can't last long."
Ye Bai has a vague hunch that summer grass ants have formed a symbiotic relationship with the spores.
This proves that summer grass ants must have a way to restrain the spores.
So as long as we can study the summer grass ants in depth, we should be able to find the key to solving the problem. Ye Bai has not forgotten that these spores are highly contagious.
General pet beasts can easily be infected by the spores and become walking zombies controlled by the spores.
“Then I'll take my leave first.”
Ye Bai was pressed for time, so he hurried back to the laboratory.
At this time, Lanfa has already copied a bunch of signaling hormones.
“Ye Bai, copying these signaling hormones doesn't cost much at all.”
Lanfa showed an expression as if you were praising me.
"ox."
Ye Bai gave a thumbs up.
At this time, Lanfa has been divided into twenty transparent experimental cabinets.
Ten strong iron-clad ants and ten summer grass ants were placed inside.
“Ye Bai, I think these experiments can be carried out at the same time.”
“I have a mirror man, and I can copy several people to watch the experiment.”
Ye Bai shook his head: "No more for now."
“Experiments are not always better, they must be done step by step.”
“Otherwise you will easily miss the key points that are fleeting.”
Ye Bai did not blame Lan Fa too much.
He knew that Lan Fa also had good intentions.
And the research on summer grass ants is indeed crucial.
This is related to the solution after the large-scale spread of spores.
The powerful iron-clad ants and summer grass ants that Ye Bai selected this time are both pets that have a certain probability of evolving into queen ants.
It's just that Ye Bai has to patiently search for the evolutionary materials needed for evolution.
Ye Bai didn't know why the Eye of Insight only showed the evolutionary route this time, but not the evolutionary materials.
Isn't there suitable evolution material?
Ye Bai seemed to have guessed the reason.
He and Blue Hair put on gloves, white coats and goggles, and then began to inject signaling hormones into the young ants.
When the young ants saw the dripping needle, they immediately ran around in fear.
Ye Bai also spent a lot of effort to inject signaling hormones into the young ants one by one.
After being injected with hormones, some young ants turn red all over, like cooked shrimps.
When Ye Bai originally thought that these young ants were hopeless, the young ants stood up again, and the red light disappeared. Ye Bai found that the size of these young ants seemed to have grown a bit.
Later, Ye Bai discovered that the outer skins of these young ants fell off like scraps of paper, and they seemed to have grown a lot.
“Sunflower King, you are responsible for giving sunflower nectar to the young ants.”
Ye Bai secretly made a gesture, and the Sun Flower Emperor understood what Ye Bai meant.
The nectar of the sun must be mixed with the dew of the sky.
The energy contained in the dew can promote the rapid growth of young ants and shorten the research time.
At night, the young ants shed a layer of skin one after another, and their bodies grew a lot.
“Lan Fa, are there any abnormalities in the physical data of these young ants?”
Five or six cameras are installed in each glass window to monitor every move of the young ants.
“There is nothing abnormal, the cells in their bodies have become very active.”
“The cells are dividing rapidly.”
Lan Fa said to Ye Bai while recording detailed research data.
“In addition to throwing in the nectar of the Sun Flower King, I also added a lot of wood-type crystal nuclei.”
“Accelerate their growth.”
"Ye Bai, it's already very late. I'm here to watch. You can go back and rest first."
Lanfa yawned and said to Ye Bai.
“Okay, then you can take a rest by watching the time.”
Ye Bai had just returned to his breeding house when the early morning bell rang.
His breeding house has just been renovated and it will be open for business once the smell has dissipated.
Ye Bai also specially purchased a lot of high-tech equipment.
In this way, you can still conduct some research even if you don't have to go to the school's laboratory.
Xiaohan fell asleep hanging on Ye Bai's neck.
Ye Bai gently placed Xiao Han on the sofa.
Ever since the onset of Xiaohan, Ye Bai has never turned on the air conditioner once.
Even the hot summer is no exception.
Where there is Xiaohan, the surrounding temperature is maintained at 18 or 19 degrees.
Information refreshed daily.
1. The Global Youth Research Competition is about to begin. In order to ensure fairness and justice, Teito University has begun to select personnel. The selection requires people under the age of 20 who have won the Youlin Cup championship. 】
[2. Dragon God Orchid, Life Essence, Sky Dew, and God Turtle Longevity Fruit can be used to prepare a requiem potion that can preserve the soul. The formula of the Requiem Potion is as follows: Dragon God Orchid 25, Life Source 6, Tian Dew 22 , The turtle has a longevity of 27. 】
[3. The military training for the first-year students of Imperial University is about to begin. The location of this military training is Panyang County, Gannan Province. A third-level beast wave broke out here. Due to the serious shortage of manpower, the freshmen of Imperial University were temporarily dispatched to participate in the defense. . 】
【4. The Heart Gem can only appear if there is flawless love. The Heart Gem has the effect of enhancing mental strength, and long-term wearing can improve the level of intelligence. 】
5. A young Xiangrui appears in the mysterious land of the sea. Killing it or contracting it can improve your luck. 】
Ye Bai looked at the first article, and his mood could not calm down for a long time.
Who is responsible for this? Obviously, the champion of every Youlin Cup can participate in the Youth Research Competition without any threshold. However, this year they have to go through a selection process before they can enter.
Ye Bai turned over two hygiene **** and was really speechless.
Moreover, you have to transfer the sniper beast tide. Doesn't this clearly mean that you don't want to participate in the Global Youth Research Competition?
This award is very valuable.
This year is also Ye Bai's last chance to participate in the Youth Research Competition.
The points he has in hand are enough, and they can be directly exchanged for a third-year graduate degree, or even a doctorate degree.
This competition can only be participated by graduate students or below.
But the last one revealed the location of the auspicious beast that Ye Bai is currently looking for.
“It would be great if that auspicious beast was a water-attribute pet.”
Now Ye Bai's team only lacks a water attribute beast.
Ye Bai was leaning on the sofa thinking about something. As he was thinking about it, he felt sleepy, so he leaned against the sofa to take a nap.
As a result, he accidentally fell asleep.
Da Hui tiptoed and covered Ye Bai's body with a thin blanket.
It just yawned and continued to run back to bed to sleep.
In the laboratory, the powerful iron-clad ants and summer grass ants that were munching on wood-type crystal cores suddenly stopped moving.
They are like statues, standing quietly in place.
After a while, they pupated directly.
Lanfa's clone! ! What is going on?
The clone felt something was wrong and woke up Lan Fa from his deep sleep.
Lanfa stood up from the bed in a daze, but after walking a few steps, he fell on the bed again.
“Hey, hey, there's something wrong with those giant iron-clad ants and summer grass ants.”
“They formed cocoons and pupated.”
Lanfa's clone shouted loudly.
It made Lan Fa's eardrums buzz, but it also completely woke Lan Fa up.
Lanfa looked up and was startled. Both the powerful iron-clad ants and the summer grass ants were motionless.
