Chapter 1677 Good guys, are you trying to subvert social ethics? (5 rewards plus [-])
Aniviya is a disciple of Gretel—but not from the Lord of Thunder.
No way, she is a natural priest, not a magician.The Horn of Thunder is willing to look at Gretel and treat her differently, but it is impossible to regard her as one of his own:
To put it simply, non-core knowledge can be listened to, but core knowledge has no way; if non-core resources are exchanged by the people in the tower of the Great Mage, and then exchanged for her, Thunder Horn is willing to pretend not to see it.
... On this point, the Thunder Lord, as well as Gretel's brothers and sisters, are more open-minded.
During the lectures, as long as Aniviya can catch up, I can listen to her casually, and if I have any questions, I will give advice without discrimination.
Therefore, when Gretel ate and chatted with the teacher and senior sister, reported the progress of the research during this period, and asked for advice, Aniviya had a breakthrough, so she happily came to report.
"Oh? What did you do?"
Gretel turned his head curiously.Aniviya has been working diligently on this path since she advanced with the divine technique of promoting the reproduction of spirit beasts, and intends to rely on this to continue to improve.
The way of reproduction is extremely profound and extremely difficult.After all, Aniviya is only a level 10 natural priest, and her power is limited. Even with the guidance of the elders, there are some things that she can't understand or can't do.
However, relying on hard work, relying on working around the clock every day, relying on Grete's unlimited resources to build up - even a microscope is dedicated to her - the progress is still quite good:
In the recent period, she has successfully pushed the Great Reproduction Technique to the point where it can serve high-level monsters above level 15, and adult dragons—that is, the same as her teacher.
As for the middle-aged dragons, Aniviya is not sure yet.At the very least, the surrounding barbarian tribes sent many women to serve Bernard, not asking for a title, but only to save a seed, but so far no one has successfully conceived——
Even with the help of Aniviya, no one was able to get pregnant.She observed carefully under the microscope and confirmed that the cause of pregnancy failure was still the inability of sperm and egg to combine:
In other words, the sperm successfully entered the egg, but the chromosomes could not be successfully copied, and the cell could not be successfully divided.Every time, the problem is at those transcendent points, either it is broken here, or it is broken there...
Bernard's side can't do it. Apa's sperm has failed to combine with the eggs of various reindeer and magic deer in the forest.
Under the guidance of Gretel, Aniviya changed various methods, using spells to store fertilized eggs, using blood, serum, saline, holy water, and life sap...
No use, no use.Even under the care of the powerful life magic, the eggs taken from the doe's body cannot survive for 12 hours after they are combined with sperm.
The only thing that can hold fertilized eggs is the exclusive container modified by the necromancer's [cloning] alchemy vessel.Only this kind of container can allow fertilized eggs to survive normally until they can't split and die...
Fortunately, Aniviya learned by analogy during the research process.
Together with Leon Carlos, she consulted the elders of the Deity Church, and the high-ranking mages of the Black Crow Swamp, and went to the Transformation Department to bring someone here from time to time.
That is to say, they pulled the flag of Gretel as a tiger skin, and everyone in the mage tower was willing to talk to them. [Cloning] The alchemy utensils have been modified seven times and eight times, and seven times and eight times have been changed, and a usable thing has actually been changed:
"Teacher! We changed the [Clone Technique] container into a [Accelerate Growth] container!"
"Oh..." Gretel snorted, but didn't react for a while.Accelerated growth can be regarded as the signature spell of the deity religion, and every disciple must learn it at the beginning——
Even if it's a waste like Gretel, the plants don't recognize the plants, the seeds don't recognize the seeds, and the natural priests of the second and third levels can communicate with each other after grabbing a handful of seeds, and they can also catalyze the seeds into vines.
So, accelerated growth?
"Our accelerated growth is from the fertilized egg to the embryo directly!" Aniviya's eyebrows were beaming, two thin red flowers flew up on her cheeks, and her whole body seemed to be shining brightly:
"Up to now, we have used fish eggs, first-level devil frog eggs, devil frog king eggs, third-level to fifth-level magic lizard eggs, and verified them one by one! It only takes one day, one day can speed up to breaking the shell!"
Gretel's breathing became short of breath.
This research is so important!
This research, as long as it can be used for dragon eggs, can increase his current research speed by 10 times, 20 times, or even 100 times!
"How did you change it?"
He couldn't help asking.Annivia paused, took out a large roll of parchment from the space bag, unfolded it, and picked up the top roll.Pointing to the messy lines drawn on the parchment, she explained carefully:
"First of all, the bottom of the alchemy vessel..."
"Just talk about your train of thought." Gretel shook his head and interrupted.
He has also studied the magic configuration of the cloning technique, how complicated it is, it took him at least half a month to memorize it by rote.
Let the disciples talk from the beginning to the end. Today, from the teacher to the teacher's wife, to the senior sister and him, no one needs to sleep——
It's fine that he and his senior sister don't sleep occasionally, teacher and senior wife, there's no need to delay making babies!
"It's like this." Aniviya sorted out her thoughts, flipped through the parchment rolls, and found another very large one with complicated lines on it.
She hung the parchment in the air with a few vines, pointed at the scroll and spoke:
"The lines on the alchemy vessel are partly used to maintain the internal state of the vessel. Temperature, humidity, pH, etc... allow the cloning material to maintain a normal growth environment, which cannot be moved."
The thinking is clear, Gretel nodded.Aniviya took two steps forward, a vine sprang out from her fingertips, and a green leaf spread out from the tip of the vine, gently brushing a pattern on the scroll:
"This part, according to our tests, is to promote the circulation of liquid inside the container. Let new liquid enter, waste liquid exit, and take away a batch of waste generated during the growth process."
This is also true.When Gretel learned cloning, he took the notes and personal research records of Archmage Hines, and was personally instructed by the 18th-level Archmage. These basic contents did not trouble him.
Just like a baby needs to eat, drink, and excrete during the growth process; during the process of cell division and the process of organ growth, it also needs to absorb nutrients and metabolize.
The cloning object of cloning is just a piece of flesh and blood, and it will not circulate by itself.Therefore, an alchemy vessel is needed to help it circulate...
"And this part is used to increase the speed of cell division - in this spell configuration, we even found traces of divine magic. Cloning can create a body within a year, without increasing the speed, it is completely useless possible!"
Gretel's eyes lit up!
That's right, that's it!
The cloning technique, when Gretel was refining it, only intercepted its function of guiding somatic cells to revert to stem cells and guiding stem cells to differentiate.
As for increasing the speed of cell division, Gretel hadn't studied it carefully at all.Anyway, for ordinary healing techniques, increasing the speed of cell division is the basis, it's just a matter of higher or lower efficiency, and he didn't have the energy at all at that time.
"so?"
"So, cloning is to use flesh and blood to differentiate and reverse into a body. We can't use many of its functions. We deleted some functions, and modified some functions, and changed it into a culture warehouse for cultivating fertilized eggs!"
For example, to guide the reversion of somatic cells into stem cells, this function is not necessary.As long as the fertilized egg divides normally, it can differentiate into embryos normally, and the spell guiding function is not necessary.
Aniviya and Leon Carlos, two brothers and sisters of the same school, are ignorant, fearless and bold.Relying on the sufficient resources provided by the master, the alchemy warehouse was modified and modified, and dozens of them were damaged at least.
If they were replaced by ordinary tenth-level priests and ninth-level necromancers, no one would take care of them if they wanted to change these.But they changed it randomly, and actually changed something that can be used!
"Good guys, you are..."
Gretel took a deep breath.From fertilized eggs to hatched fish, frogs, and lizards.If we go one step further and even the fertilized eggs of mammals can be born, it will be an artificial womb!
——In the previous life, countless big bosses and countless research laboratories have squandered an unknown amount of resources.The latest progress, only to culture blastocysts to the stage of early organogenesis...
Whether it is because of research ethics issues or technical difficulties, the next steps cannot be done in a word.Unexpectedly, it was accidentally hit by these two little guys, and it was made out!
"—Have you tried it with the fertilized eggs of mice, rabbits, deer, these warm-blooded, viviparous animals?"
Gretel tried hard to suppress his heartbeat, and said in a deep voice.Aniviya's eyes flashed, and she shook her head:
"……not yet……"
"Not yet, then don't do it." Gretel was slightly relieved.
Thankfully, the emergence of the artificial womb may have a subversive impact on social ethics and social structure!
He has no concept at all in this regard. His "Medical Ethics" class is basically a rote memorization, and he can finish it after passing the exam...
"This technology should be kept as secret as possible and not leaked out. — Well, next, I will take a look at this technology with you. If there is no problem, we will start the next step of research—"
"Which direction are you going to study, teacher?"
Aniviya asked a little excitedly.Gretel condensed slightly:
"Two directions. One is animal experimentation, which further advances experimental animals. From low-level monsters, to mid-level and high-level monsters, to dragon beasts, and the offspring of dragon beasts and male dragons."
After the demonstration in this direction is completed, there is no doubt that it can be used to cultivate dragon eggs.
"Is there another direction, teacher?"
