Academician Lu seemed to have thought of something, and he couldn't help but carefully review the original data on truth again. His eyes lit up, and he immediately understood the direction of the next research on truth. Suddenly, he felt enlightened.

That's how scientific research is; going in the wrong direction is the most terrible thing!

Academician Lu couldn't wait to break his computer's sleep mode and began writing a report to his superiors, requesting permission to conduct human experiments on him.

Truth is a creation of advanced civilization...

The original truth is the correct recipe; the cult's subsequent modifications are like constantly adding bugs to a perfect program... the more you optimize, the more bugs appear...

I implore you to conduct a human experiment on me personally; I am 90% certain of success!

Chapter 69 Freshmen

Shangqiu, Level 4 Biological Research Institute.

Researchers are making intensive preparations for a real human experiment.

Academician Lu lay in his hospital bed, with various instruments constantly monitoring his physical condition.

"Teacher, how about I do it? I'm young..."

“Nonsense, the professional ethics in our field is that the first person to test a drug is yourself or your family member. This is not only being responsible to others, but also having confidence in yourself…” At this point, Academician Lu waved his hand and said confidently, “...I have confidence in the drug I have developed.”

If researchers don't even have confidence in themselves, what kind of research are they going to do?

The reason why the higher-ups agreed to let Academician Lu use his own body for experiments was because the active enzyme showed good clinical performance and did not show any harm to people. More importantly, it was because they trusted Academician Lu's professional ability. Respect and trust are also a kind of combat effectiveness!

"..."

After a moment of silence, the assistant nodded vigorously and placed the box on the table.

Reaching out and pressing my fingerprint on the box, the electronic lock inside opened after successful fingerprint recognition, with a hissing sound revealing a can of pale red, fluorescent liquid inside.

There was also another syringe in the box, which contained a purified active enzyme secreted by the red thread. This enzyme was an enhanced version from 1967, and technically speaking, this small tube was worth 2 million RMB.

The assistant took out a syringe and medicine from the box, and with a click, the two were put together. The assistant then walked to Academician Lu's side with the syringe and looked at his teacher.

Academician Lu indicated that the injection was appropriate, and his assistant administered two different medications intravenously to the elderly patient. He then loudly announced:

"Everyone, concentrate!"

The surrounding doctors and nurses immediately began to focus intently on the data displayed on the instruments. If anything went wrong, the experts on the side would do everything they could to save Academician Lu.

The rabbit's home is not under the jurisdiction of Death!

Academician Lu had already received injections of longevity-enhancing drugs, which strengthened his bodily functions. This time, he received another injection of a stronger active enzyme to further enhance his bodily functions.

Based on previous experiments on animals, Truth and Red Thread have the ability to "complement" each other. Theoretically, since humans are also animals, the same reaction would occur after Red Thread and Truth are injected into the human body.

It's just that the rabbits value human life more and have never conducted human clinical trials. If it were the West... well, those who know, know.

"Teacher, how are you feeling?" the assistant asked with concern.

"Hmm... I haven't experienced any discomfort yet. Is the nutritional paste ready?"

According to the law of conservation of energy, active enzymes and primal truths can modify the human body, which is equivalent to genetic optimization. This optimization consumes a lot of energy, so it is necessary to replenish energy in a timely manner.

The main reason why the cult has repeatedly failed in its experiments is that they take pleasure in abusing children. The children are not even fed enough, so where does the energy come from to support the optimization of their bodies?

It's like a computer system being upgraded halfway through when the power goes out; the "system" will naturally crash.

"Ready..."

"Hmm...I'll inject in ten minutes."

"understand!"

Without the assistants needing to say much, the professional medical staff began to prepare the nutritional supplements.

I'm feeling a little hungry...

Medical staff stepped forward and put him on an IV drip to provide energy to Academician Lu's body through medication. Eating requires a digestive process, which cannot be done directly with an IV drip.

As time passed, the primal truth and active enzymes within Academician Lu's body began to take effect. The two had a clear division of labor: the primal truth went straight to the brain to optimize the software, while the active enzymes strengthened the hardware.

Under the promotion of active enzymes, a series of amazing changes occur in human double-helix DNA.

Telomeres continue to lengthen and become more resistant to wear; even some worn-out telomeres undergo "self-repair."

The increased oxygen-carrying capacity of red blood cells leads to a more powerful and efficient immune system...

While being optimized at the microscopic level, the body is also undergoing transformation.

Muscle fibers become thicker, bones become stronger, blood vessels become more resilient, nerve signal transmission accelerates, and dead hair follicles revive...

The heart beats more powerfully, the liver's blood-producing capacity increases dramatically, the lungs' oxygen-absorbing capacity is enhanced, the kidneys' detoxification capacity is increased exponentially, and the spleen's digestive capacity is also amplified...

At the same time, the primal truth of following the blood through the blood-brain barrier to enter the brain begins to take effect.

The combination of numerous neurons within the brain with primal truths is akin to a major update to the body's computational system, unleashing the brain's hidden potential and resulting in more active brainwaves...

Drip, drip... drops of nutrient solution dripped into Academician Lu's body, and these nutrients were quickly absorbed as optimized energy for his body.

"Teacher, how are you feeling now?"

"I felt the pulse of life," Academician Lu said with some emotion. He felt as if he had returned to the physical state of a forty-year-old, rather than an old man on the verge of death.

"The pulse of life?"

"Hmm... I feel my mind is clearer, which I think is the effect of the original truth. After the enhancement is complete, I want to take an adult IQ test."

"clear."

Seeing that Academician Lu had no side effects, his assistant was relieved. With his mind clear, Academician Lu began to think about how to spread the active enzymes and original truths so that every little rabbit could have a chance to develop and enjoy the benefits of science.

Science should benefit the public, not become a tool for some to make money. It's understandable to have the ability to make money, but please take on the corresponding social responsibility.

Half an hour later, Academician Lu's body temperature gradually returned to normal. He slowly got up from the hospital bed. The moment he sat up, he had a strange feeling. He discovered that his senses could not only identify front, back, left, and right, but also the two areas that humans cannot identify: "up" and "down".

"Spatial cognition! I feel like I've gained the ability to perceive space. Indeed, primordial knowledge is what prepares us for space travel."

"Teacher...you look younger!"

The assistant's eyes widened slightly. The shock he received from spatial awareness was not as shocking as the shock of rejuvenation. He felt a sense of disorientation, as if he had returned to the time when he first met Academician Lu 30 years ago.

"is it?"

Academician Lu took the mirror handed to him by the nurse and was taken aback when he saw his 30-something-year-old face in the mirror. The loose skin on his face had regained its elasticity, and the eye bags were not so serious. Only the hair that had fallen out on his head had not yet recovered.

After all, this isn't a myth; the effects on cells can be immediate, while hair requires a growth process.

"I've told you before, I was quite a handsome guy when I was young~" Academician Lu said half-jokingly. Scientists aren't all serious people, and Academician Lu is quite humorous as well.

Chapter 70 The Prelude to a New Era

The day after Academician Lu's physical enhancement ended, experts collected some blood and tissue samples from him for research.

"Don't worry, Academician Lu's injections won't hurt..." the nurse said to Academician Lu from the side.

"Hey~ you little rascal, of course I'm not afraid of needles!"

As Academician Lu spoke, he looked away. His assistant chuckled as he watched Academician Lu, who had become like a "child," admitting that he had always been afraid of needles... It was an instinct, incurable.

Watching the nurse holding the vacuum tube filled with blood, Academician Lu couldn't help but sigh, "I never imagined that after studying others for decades, I would become the subject of study myself..."

"You old Lu, stop acting all innocent after getting the benefits," another expert said sourly.

Everyone wants to be young again. If Academician Lu is in good health, then all the other academicians will need to undergo the same treatment, starting with the oldest.

This made the academicians extremely happy, as they could go further on the path of pursuing science and continue to strive in their favorite career.

Blood and tissue samples were quickly sent to the laboratory for testing.

The experts, looking at Academician Lu who seemed to have rejuvenated, were eager to know what had happened to him.

Once Academician Lu has recovered, he will undergo more detailed examinations, including CT scans, X-rays, and MRIs.

In order to study Academician Lu's health, some highly respected academicians personally conducted the examination.

Under the microscope, the cell activity in Academician Lu's blood was enhanced, and the DNA telomeres increased by 50%-70%... This means that human lifespan has increased by at least 50%, which is 50 years more than the average lifespan over a century!

What does this mean? It means that an 80-year-old has become a prime of life, especially for a scientist.

The oxygen-carrying capacity of red blood cells has more than doubled, and the immune system has also been optimized, even enabling it to directly eliminate Ebola virus and fungal spores.

In other words, without their laborious efforts to develop a vaccine, the body's own mutation system can directly eliminate the Ebola virus and fungi that invade the body.

Carbon-based life has its limits, but active enzymes have stretched human attributes into a pentagonal force...

If physical strength only brings happiness, then the enhancement of the brain completely breaks the shackles on humanity, albeit temporarily.

The terrifying upright ape became the overlord of the small planet through its intelligence, but human intelligence is limited, especially as science continues to develop and disciplines become more and more complex. Some disciplines are no longer things for "humans" to study, such as quantum mechanics, which requires a certain level of dedication to master.

There's also cryptography, which tests intelligence. People who work on cryptography often end up going crazy... If I can't crack the code you've developed, does that mean I'm dumber than you?

According to IQ tests, Academician Lu's IQ increased by 20 points. This was after he had just been enhanced by the Primal Truth. Moreover, it was not only his IQ that was enhanced, but his memory and logical thinking abilities also improved significantly.

This is evident in the cases of Bell and Theo. If you increase the quantity, you will eventually succeed. They are considered lucky ones in the cult's haphazard experiments. Perhaps due to their physical condition, the True Knowledge modified by the cult has achieved sufficient effect and has undergone brain enhancement.

As for how many children weren't so lucky, that's unclear...

Theoretically speaking, they could even patch things up using the original truth.

"Old Lu, we're trying to test nanorobots over there, and they've already tested them on me. Look at me now, I'm as lively as ever... didn't you know?"

"Ok?"

Academician Lu gave the other person a disapproving look. They were actually eyeing him... They probably wanted to see what kind of reaction the nanorobots, the original truth, and the active enzymes would have. As a fellow scientist, he understood the other person's feelings, and besides, they had been friends for decades.

"You old bastard... Fine!"

Upon hearing this, another academician who specializes in nanorobots gave his assistant a look, and the assistant quickly ran out and retrieved a can of yellow fluorescent reagent.

"This is?"

"Nanorobots made from organic crystals are an upgraded version of the first generation of nanorobots. They do not cause rejection reactions in the human body and are also strictly restricted from entering the brain."

Powered by the body's bioelectricity, it doesn't produce as much power as the first-generation nanorobots, but it can remain inside the body for extended periods, theoretically up to 60 months, before being eliminated through metabolism...

Academician Lu looked at the organic crystal Namu robot injected into the body, nodded, and asked, "What is its purpose?"

"It's kind of an auxiliary treatment; it can assist the body's endocrine system, such as reducing lactic acid buildup. Most importantly, when injured, organic crystal nanorobots can help platelets form a scab film on the outside of the wound, reducing blood loss..."

As the academician spoke, he used the sterilized scalpel handed to him by his assistant to make a cut on his arm. Blood flowed out, and a few seconds later, a translucent film formed on the surface of the wound, sealing it.
