Chapter 21 Triple-linked gene mutation, how can it survive?
Chapter 21 Triple-linked gene mutation, how can it survive?
Natsuno exclaimed, "Wow!"
He understood: mutations in the outer membrane prevented the absorption of nutrients, while mutations in the energy-absorbing organs resulted in the absorption of only superpowers.
Fortunately, Liuli Junhao tried feeding him superpowers, otherwise this guy would definitely have run out of energy.
So, layering bugs actually makes the code run? That's amazing! Don't mess with it, or you might crash it!
Natsuno understood the first two mutations combined, but what impact does the third have?
Natsuno's shout had also attracted Tomohiko's attention. Seeing Natsuno staring at the egg, Tomohiko couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong, Ono-ko? Do you know what's going on with this egg?"
Natsuno looked at him strangely, went up and opened the incubation device, and took out the strange egg.
Raise both hands and slam them onto the table with a little force.
Seeing Natsuno's actions, Tomohiko tried to stop him, saying, "Don't!"
Unfortunately, Natsuno was one step ahead, and with a "crack," came the dull sound of the eggshell breaking.
"Hmm? This sound is off?"
Tomohiko's attempt to grab Natsuno's hand froze in mid-air.
Xia Ye peeled the egg like a hard-boiled egg, turning it over and gently cracking the shell. Soon, the contents of the egg were revealed.
A blue, single-celled sphere stared intently at Natsuno with its eyes wide open, its diamond-shaped mouth slightly agape, emitting a cry.
Unfortunately, because the cell spheres are surrounded by other organs in a fluid-filled outer membrane, they can only make a "plop plop" sound, like blowing bubbles in water.
Fuhiko stared blankly at Natsuno's series of actions, as if he had used magic to pull a Pokémon out of the egg.
"Oddish, Onoko, why is she a heterochromatic?"
The two girls marveled at the little blue sphere, and Xiao Cai and Xiao Fen also came over.
Tutu dogs are only 1.2 meters tall on average, and Xiao Cai watched it while kneeling on a cushioned stool.
The egg cell laboriously turned itself in the opposite direction, and then, as if guided by instinct, rolled and gurgled as it moved towards Xiao Cai.
Xiao Cai stared at the little guy with curiosity, reached out her hands to press him down, and the other person also raised his eyes to stare at Xiao Cai's face.
Natsuno stroked his chin, recalling what he had learned, then suddenly looked up at Tomohiko: "Tomohiko, do the cell spheres use superpowers to move?"
Fu Yan blinked, nodded, then turned to look at the little guy who was held down by Xiao Cai and couldn't move, his brows furrowing.
"Yeah, his other two brothers both use a weak superpower to float, so why can't this guy?"
No mole, let's have some solid jokes.
Even a single ovum with an average height of 0.3 meters and an average weight of 1 kg can float off the ground, so what else can't?
Natsuno finally understood what was going on with the third gene mutation in that little blue sphere.
Because the superpowers are constantly being supplied to the body's cells, the body's own superpowers are insufficient, making it difficult to hatch.
After all, a single ovum is a perfectly round, smooth sphere. Without superpowers, how could it possibly hatch on its own?
Goodness, the first Pokémon in history to hatch but be unable to hatch on its own has appeared.
Xiao Cai is holding her dog's tail in front of the little guy to tease him into moving forward and turning.
At first, the little guy rolled crookedly, but after a while, he got the hang of it and rolled in a straight line.
Xiao Cai changed her strategy again, teasing the little guy to learn to turn around on his own.
Fortunately, the little guy's superpowers are very weak, but not nonexistent. He does have the superpower to control his own rotation, but the speed isn't very fast.
Seeing this, Little Pink got excited and started teasing the table by wagging its 1-meter-long tail.
Natsuno was still thinking about how to cover up the fact that he knew the ball had hatched but couldn't break out of its shell, and how to hide it from the system.
Tomohiko looked at Natsuno with adoration: "Wow! Natsuno-kun, no, Natsuno-nii! You really are a chosen one! Even an egg that couldn't hatch would hatch under your hands! Amazing!"
Xia Ye shook his head and told a joke that no one in this world could understand: "I am not the chosen one. The chosen ones are all inside Tiger Vanguard's belly."
"I'm just guessing. You've already ruled out most of the possibilities, so there's one last one for me: a genetic mutation."
"Your dad said the egg has a heartbeat and occasionally makes a faint sound, which is a strong indication that the little guy has likely hatched."
"When I picked it up, I could feel that it was different from an unhatched egg. Considering the possibility of something unusual, I decided to give it a try."
"Most people would never imagine that a Pokémon could hatch but be unable to break out of its shell on its own. I can hardly believe it."
"Anyway, this guy is definitely a genetic mutation. It's actually good for me to study him, since I'm quite good at it."
As Natsuno chatted with Tomohiko, he noticed that the little guy was rolling slower and slower, and his face began to show a tired expression. His body color also became a little lighter.
Xiao Cai, who was teasing him with his tail, also noticed and tilted her head to look at Xia Ye.
Xia Ye was delighted by Xiao Cai's adorable appearance and couldn't resist giving her a kiss on the cheek.
Xiao Cai, with a disgusted expression, loosened her tail and wiped the drool off her face with her paw.
Its tail swayed slightly behind it, clearly indicating that it was very happy.
Natsuno picked up the tired cell ball and placed it into the incubation device.
The device started silently, and through the glass, one could see faint superpower fluctuations being transmitted to the cell spheres, while the nutrient solution below was slowly decreasing.
Ten minutes later, the little guy's expression returned to its energetic state, and the color of his body surface also deepened.
Turn on the device, take the little guy out and put him on the table, and let Xiao Cai continue to tease the little guy as he rolls around.
Natsuno took a picture of the little guy and then started timing.
Tomohiko, standing to the side, watched Natsuno's actions with great interest and interest.
Half an hour later, the little guy got tired again, and no matter how much Xiao Cai tried to coax him, he stopped rolling.
Natsuno took another photo, then put the little guy into the incubator to recharge.
After carefully comparing the two photos taken at different times, Tomohiko was amazed.
"Does the color of the liquid in the middle of their bodies reflect their energy state? Pokémon are truly amazing creatures."
"Ten minutes of charging for half an hour of use? Looks like I'll have to carry this energy conversion device with me when I go out from now on."
Fu Yan nodded: "Ah, this energy device was made at a high price by Devon Technologies. It's their latest exclusive patent."
"If you need it, you can have them make a special shape. Anyway, the core components are the same; it's just a matter of changing the shell to make it more convenient for daily use."
Upon hearing this, Xia Ye's eyes lit up, and an idea automatically formed in his mind.
"Should I just build a Gundam-like design?"
