American comic: Checking in, Gwen in black stockings rolls her eyes.

Do you think we can succeed in developing reverse gene technology?

Lin Feng's eyes gleamed in the dim light:

“If anyone can do it, it’s the four of you. With your combined wisdom, there’s almost nothing that’s impossible.”

Susan smiled, feeling a surge of inexplicable confidence welling up inside her:

Goodnight, Lin Feng.

Goodnight, Susan.

As the door closed, Lin Feng fell into deep thought once again.

Teaching Susan might be risky, but perhaps that's exactly what he needs to do.

If reverse gene technology is indeed developed.

He needs to make sure that someone understands the nature of energy, not just science.

Susan has potential and curiosity, which is a good start.

Lin Feng returned to the center of the room and closed his eyes again.

He needs to continue his training to prepare for the upcoming challenges.

Whether he's teaching Susan or helping the other three control their abilities, he needs to remain vigilant and strong.

Because he felt it.

This cosmic ray storm is just the beginning; even greater changes are on the horizon.

.

Over the next few days, life on the spaceship took on a new rhythm.

Reed, Johnny, and Ben spent their days researching in the lab and their nights trying to learn how to control their abilities.

Susan participated in research during the day and learned the basics of energy control from Lin Feng at night.

In the laboratory, progress is slow but steady.

Reed's flexibility allowed him to operate multiple devices simultaneously, greatly improving efficiency.

Johnny's flame can provide a precise heat source for sophisticated experiments.

Ben's strength comes in handy when heavy equipment needs to be moved.

"look here."

One day, Reed pointed to the analysis results on the screen.

“There’s a specific protein marker in our DNA that appears to be a trigger for mutations. If we could design a drug that targets this marker…”

Johnny lit his finger and carefully heated a test tube:

"Then we can reverse the mutation?"

"In theory, yes."

Reed craned his neck to examine the sample through the microscope on the other side.

"But this requires more testing. We can't take the risk."

Ben stared at his petrified hand:

"I'd be willing to be the first volunteer. Anything is better than what 083 is like now."

Susan entered the lab with some new data:

“I have just completed a series of simulations. Based on the results, we may need a catalyst, a substance that can activate the reverse process at the molecular level.”

Reed views the data:

"Do you have any ideas?"

Susan hesitated for a moment:

"Actually, I'm wondering if Lin Feng's energy manipulation could act as a catalyst. If he can guide energy at the molecular level, then he might be able to help activate the reversal process."

Johnny frowned:

Are you sure we should pin our hopes for recovery on a mysterious ability that we barely understand?

"I believe in Lin Feng."

Susan said firmly.

"And from a scientific point of view, this makes sense. Energy is the key to transformation, whether it is a physical change or a chemical reaction."

Reed pondered for a moment:

"It's worth a try. We can design an experiment to test how Lin Feng's energy affects our DNA samples."

Ben crossed his arms:

"Then you'd better hurry. I'm tired of living a life where I can't even afford normal clothes."

Susan nodded:

"I will bring up this idea with Lin Feng tonight. Our cultivation course is progressing smoothly, and I think he will be willing to help."

"Cultivation courses?"

Reed raised an eyebrow. "You two see each other often?"

Susan avoided Reed's gaze:

"Just for scientific purposes, Reed. I want to understand how his abilities work, which would be helpful for our research."

Reed nodded without asking further questions, but his expression showed that he didn't entirely believe him.

.

That evening, in Lin Feng's room.

Susan is trying to guide a small ball of energy to float above her palm.

Sweat beaded on her forehead, her expression focused.

“Breathe, Susan.”

Lin Feng gave instructions in a soft voice.

"Energy flows with your breath. Don't force it, guide it."

Susan took a deep breath, and the energy ball stabilized somewhat, but remained weak.

"This is much harder than I imagined."

She said, biting her lip.

How did you master it?

Lin Feng smiled:

"Time and patience. And the necessary conditions—a combination of talent, training, and willpower. You're progressing quickly, Susan. Just a few days ago you couldn't sense energy, and now you can channel it."

Susan let the energy ball dissipate and rubbed her tired eyes:

"The lab has made new progress. We have discovered a way to potentially reverse the mutation, but it requires a catalyst."

Lin Feng nodded, signaling her to continue.

.....

238: DNA gene recombination!

“We’re thinking…maybe your energy manipulation could act as a catalyst.”

Susan explained.

"Guide energy at the molecular level to activate the reverse process."

Lin Feng pondered for a moment:

"It's possible. I can try to influence specific molecular structures, but this requires extremely high precision. One mistake could cause more damage."

Are you willing to give it a try?

Susan asked expectantly.

Lin Feng nodded:

"Of course. I will do everything I can to help you."

Susan smiled, but quickly became serious.

"Lin Feng, if we successfully develop reverse gene technology, do you think... we should consider its other uses?"

Lin Feng looked directly into her eyes:

"You mean the technology that grants people superpowers?"

Susan nodded:

"This could be the next step in human evolution. If we can control it and make it safe..."

Lin Feng remained silent for a while:

"Power is always a double-edged sword, Susan. It can be used to protect, or it can be used to harm. The question is, is humanity ready?"

"Perhaps not everyone."

Susan admitted it.

"But someone always has to take the first step."

Lin Feng stared at her:

"You want to be that person, don't you?"

Susan nodded firmly:

“I want to understand all of this, Lin Feng. I want to help shape this new world, not be afraid of it.”

Lin Feng nodded slightly:

"This is a noble goal, Susan. But remember, great power comes with great responsibility."

"I see."

Susan said, her eyes sparkling with determination.

"I will not fail in this responsibility."

Lin Feng seemed to want to say more, but in the end he just nodded:

"Continue your training. I'll go to the lab tomorrow to see if I can help with your research."

Susan tried again, and this time the energy ball was more stable, emitting a soft glow above her palm.

Lin Feng looked at her, a hint of appreciation and concern flashing in his eyes.

Susan's learning speed exceeded his expectations.

This is both impressive and worrying.

He hoped that his teaching would not have any unforeseen consequences.

.

The next day, Lin Feng arrived at the laboratory, where Reed, Johnny, and Ben had already prepared the experimental equipment.

"This is our DNA sample."

Reed explained, pointing to a sealed container.

“We extracted it from the three of us. If you can try to influence these samples, we can observe the results.”
