Restoration [Interstellar]

"Because organisms on the same planet have evolved from the same biological macromolecules, they have genetic reciprocity with each other, that is, the survival rate of organisms that grow together with homologous organisms will be improved to a certain extent. This phenomenon can only be observed when the organisms leave the planet of origin."

Looking at this passage, Xia Xi frowned slightly.He thought of the catnip he had rescued from the litter box.Therefore, because the catnip plant is a revived earth plant, it is difficult to survive on a different planet, but if it is put together with itself, which is also an earth creature, there will be a relationship between the same source of life and life. A strange connection that makes it easier for catnip to survive.

So, now I have become one of the experimental equipment?

Xia Xi sat on a chair with catnip in his arms, glanced from the corner of his eyes and sat not far from him, stared at himself with the eyes of seeing new things, kept scanning himself and the researcher with catnip with the scanner, and looked at Glancing at Elias who was communicating with other professors in the distance, he sighed deeply.

Although it's not enough to dissect him, it's just that the feeling of this kind of gaze is really uncomfortable.However, it seems that I have inadvertently had close contact with Elias' research, so I should be able to complete the tasks assigned to me by Finn and the others soon, and it is best to find them anti-social elements in the Federation Before it exists, quickly take Xia Nan away and find a place far away from the Federation to live safely.

"Why can't he be a researcher?" Elias' voice suddenly rose, "All federal citizens who can contribute to scientific research are eligible for the position of researcher!"

The professor made a gesture to make Elias lower his voice, and said something in a low voice. Elias immediately interrupted him: "Second-class citizens are also citizens of the Federation! Enough, this laboratory I have the final say, who I hire as my assistant is my business. As the director of this major, I am still qualified to personally appoint researchers."

After finishing speaking, he approached Xia Xi with a cold face and waved to him, "Come here," he said, "hold the number 1917, and I will take you to apply for a researcher work permit, so that you can enter and exit the laboratory conveniently."

Xia Xi didn't think it was necessary for him to obtain the status of a researcher. After all, the effect he could achieve was just an experimental prop.But he won't refute Elias' face in front of outsiders.So he obediently followed Elias and left the laboratory. Half an hour later, his intellectual brain authority was updated and he became Elias' assistant researcher. Although he had the lowest status in the entire laboratory, he was still a researcher anyway. , can enter and leave the office building and Elias' laboratory at will, and enjoy the benefits of some faculty members.

But Xia Xi doesn't think this is a good thing, which means that he must be more cautious in his words and deeds, lest someone use his status as an assistant researcher to cause trouble for him.The Cortese look down on second-class citizens, or in other words, they don't regard second-class citizens as human beings at all, and now that creatures inferior to them have acquired the same status as them, I am afraid that many people will feel uncomfortable , It is inevitable to take the opportunity to make trouble.

but.He glanced at Elias' somewhat spirited back.I still want to thank Elias for fighting for equal rights for himself regardless.

Back in the laboratory, Elias took Xia Xi directly to the training base which occupied three floors in the office building, where control boxes were neatly arranged, and green plants were planted inside.They were all slumped and looked malnourished.Xia Xi observed them carefully and found that she didn't recognize any of them.

"Is this soil taken back from the earth?" Xia Xi asked, pointing to the transparent control box.

"No, the soil is prepared according to the samples taken back." Elias said, "You will be responsible for taking care of these plants in the future. Don't worry, you don't need to water and fertilize them, as long as you move around here That's good, you can talk to them, sing a song or something, and let them feel your presence."

"Will it be too big?" Xia Xi glanced at the training base that almost covered the entire floor, "I'm afraid I can't take care of it by myself."

Elias folded his hands and thought for a while: "You're right, we can let you take care of a few first, to see what effect you can have on different plants." As he spoke, he had already begun to consider which plants to choose.

In this way, Xia Xi started his research life inexplicably, and the school sent other housekeepers to take care of Elias' life, while Xia Xi followed Elias to and from get off work every day, and Elias worked in the laboratory. Research, while he sat in a room with dozens of pots of earth plants and did his own thing.After confirming that the monitor cannot monitor the screen of the smart brain, Xia Xi started to learn programming blatantly. When someone came in, he quickly switched to the game interface to cover up his constant typing on the keyboard.

The results of the experiment are quite obvious. According to Elias, the rate of decline in the vitality of most plants has been curbed, and the state has gradually stabilized. After a while, it may rise.

"How did you resurrect so many plants in a short period of time?" Xia Xi asked Elias. There are not a few types of plants in the training base. Although the gene resurrection technology is approaching maturity, it is still a matter of resurrecting such plants at the same time. Time consuming and costly.

"There are actually only a few kinds of people who are really resurrected through genetic technology." Elias said this, looking very happy, "The researchers sent to Earth were very lucky to discover a seed bank, but the seed bank The damage is serious, and only one storage area is well preserved." Then, Elias called up the photo from his brain, "This is not a secret, it doesn't matter if I show you, this is the seed bank they discovered."

Xia Xi leaned over and saw that in the photo, in the gloomy winter, the thick concrete walls were covered with cobweb-like cracks, and the rusty metal racks leaned against each other. These were the racks for storing seeds.

Elias changed another close-up photo, and Xia Xi's eyes widened uncontrollably when he saw the content in the photo.I saw characters engraved on the iron frame that were almost corroded and disappeared. Thousands of years later, under the erosion of high-level cosmic culture, this kind of characters have been lost. Xia Xi has not seen this kind of characters for more than 20 years, but this is the carved It is impossible for him to forget the culture that has penetrated into his bones.

Herbal medicine seeds.This is the largest five characters on the iron frame.There seemed to be a few lines of small characters under it, but they were almost corroded and could not be distinguished at all.

"We think this must be the description of these seeds." Elias pointed to these words and said, "It's a pity that no one knows what it says. Do you know it?" He asked suddenly.

Xia Xi's heart skipped a beat, and she smiled calmly: "Sorry, professor, although I am a native of Earth, I was born in the Federation, so I don't know these characters."

"Sigh." Elias sighed regretfully, "It would be great if racial culture could also have some genetic reciprocity."
