Chapter 732 The experiment was successful
When the night demon lying on the ice was re-injected with compound No. 6, the indicators on the computer monitor began to change immediately. The blood oxygen and heart rate, which were originally at an extremely high level, began to decline continuously, and the rate of decline was much faster than before.
Upon seeing this, Robert immediately gave verbal instructions and began to record various experimental data. He took out the observation instruments and carefully observed every subtle change in the experimental subject. Everything from the various indicators displayed on the instruments to the various manifestations were recorded in detail.
This lasted for nearly an hour, and the changes in various data in the first phase began to slow down, but were still returning to normal.
Moreover, the subject's skin color began to change from gray to rosy, and the blood-red hideousness on his face gradually dissipated and became calm, just like a very tired person who began to fall into a deep sleep.
At this point, although the results have not yet been determined, the various changes demonstrated by this experimental subject are definitely the most successful of all the experiments so far.
"Hey, Lu, you are such a genius. Maybe we will succeed this time. Of course, even if we don't succeed, it will definitely give me a new direction for the experiment."
"Robert, maybe we could make a grilled deer steak to celebrate."
"This is a very good idea, I like it. However, I want to inject Compound No. 6 into the other two test subjects for comparative observation. You can put it aside while grilling the deer steak. By the way, I have also collected a few bottles of the best red wine, which I can take out later..."
Lu Cheng didn't care, he could understand Robert's feelings at the moment. After all, he had put in so much effort for this, even going so far as to confine himself to a prison for more than 1000 days and nights.
Afterwards, with the help of Lu Cheng, the other two Night Demons were fixed on the operating table in the same posture and injected with Compound No. 6.
Robert seemed very excited and kept moving among the three experimental subjects, observing their changes.
Before I knew it, two or three hours had passed.
After the excitement, Robert's tense spirit began to relax gradually, and the joy on his face became more and more obvious.
"Lu, judging from the various data indicators, we seem to have succeeded. Look, these three Night Demons are so quiet right now, it's like they are asleep. I hope they will still be as quiet as they are now tomorrow morning, then we will have really succeeded."
"Maybe we should fill our stomachs first."
"you're right."
In fact, Lu Cheng had been observing the entire experiment process. While Robert was focusing on observing the experimental subjects, Lu Cheng was focusing on observing the characteristics of the KV virus and looking up the information about the KV virus recorded by Robert.
In his previous life, Lu Cheng spent decades studying biological sciences and researching longevity potions, but in the end he could only extend people's lifespan to 200 years.
The KV virus, which was accidentally created by medical scientists, killed 90% of the human race in a very short period of time, and turned the vast majority of the remaining people into bloodthirsty and hideous monsters.
Even with Lu Cheng's mental strength and thousands of years of learning, he has only made a small step forward in the exploration of life sciences.
However, a wrong invention almost destroyed the entire human race and caused human civilization to regress significantly.
Therefore, destruction is always easier than creation. This is also a famous saying in life sciences.
After careful observation and research, coupled with systematic identification, Lu Cheng discovered that as long as these night demons had sufficient food and fresh blood, their lifespan could easily exceed 200 years, and they were also immune to most human diseases.
In other words, this Night Demon is also equivalent to a kind of evolution that has gone astray.
Of course, after becoming a Night Demon, they will gradually lose their original memories and various human behaviors, and their animal nature will gradually take over. In the end, this Night Demon can no longer be considered a human being, but more like a new species that has grown from the original human being.
Perhaps, continuing to dig deeper into this virus will also play a big role in Lu Cheng's life science research.
For a moment, Lu Cheng became interested and prepared to study this KV virus in depth.
After finishing the experiment, it was already very late, the sky had completely darkened, and the night demons outside had already started to move.
Lu Cheng and Robert temporarily gave up the idea of celebrating. They just ate something in a hurry and went back to their rooms to rest.
The next morning, as soon as it was light, Robert couldn't wait to go to the underground laboratory again to observe the three experimental subjects.
Then, Robert became excited: "God, it worked! We really did it!"
At this time, the three experimental subjects on the operating table had been completely changed. Their overall appearance was not much different from that of humans, except that they had less hair.
Moreover, a whole night had passed, and the sedatives injected into the three test subjects yesterday should have completely lost their effect. However, the test subjects at this moment did not show any signs of mania and were still sleeping there quietly.
"Robert, I think we should try to wake them up first, make further observations and records, and then make a conclusion."
"You're right, we're only one step away."
Then, Robert woke up one of the test subjects and observed how his pupils responded to the light source. After confirming that the other party was fully awake, he asked, "Hey, hello, do you remember who you are?"
The awakened experimental subject was obviously a little dazed. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but only some hoarse sounds came out of his throat.
Lu Cheng said, "His vocal cords seem to have been damaged. He probably can't speak normally for the time being. I wonder if he still has his previous memories and whether he can write."
The two men observed for a while and confirmed that the experimental subject showed no signs of madness before gradually untying the restraints on him and conducting some inquiries and tests on him.
After more than half an hour of testing and observation, the two came to a conclusion that although the experimental subject had recovered to a normal level to a certain extent, he had lost his original memory, suffered some irreversible damage to his body, and his brain should have been damaged to a certain extent.
These are the effects of the KV virus in the body for up to three years. Some injuries may still be able to recover, but some may never recover.
Robert couldn't help but feel a little disappointed: "Why is this happening? I obviously succeeded, why couldn't I save him?"
"Robert, you've done a great job. But you are not God and you cannot change what has happened. At the very least, this vaccine should be able to play a sufficient role for patients who have just been infected. Moreover, now that the first step has been successful, as long as we continue, we may be able to repair the damage in the bodies of those infected and turn them into truly normal people."
In fact, it is understandable if you think about it. Those infected people have experienced three years of living like hairy and blood-drinking beasts. Various organs in their bodies have already degenerated or mutated. Compared with the original humans, they are already two different species, which cannot be easily reversed by a vaccine.
Compared to Robert, Lu Cheng was not so obsessed with the experimental results. Instead, he was very interested in learning more about the virus.
In the process of exploring the forbidden zone of life, every path is worth recording. Even a wrong path has its reference value.
