Chapter 1166 If Humans Are Oviparous

The move of the host of the ant system to make the "Beatle" brought inspiration to Xi Tong.

At the same time, this inspiration burst out again like a domino.

Gene technology in the world of Atlantis.

The genetic potential of the human body is limited, and this upper limit cannot be broken by genetic medicine at all.

Just like a computer hard drive.

The upper limit is fixed, it will only be less, not more.

Unless, install another one.

There is a lot of knowledge in the use of genetic agents, and the wrong medication will cause the genetic potential to be destroyed, just like a damaged sector in a hard disk.

Therefore, low-level people will abuse drugs to develop potentials eager for quick success, while high-level people carefully plan medication courses according to their own physiology and psychology, and develop potentials purposefully and in a targeted manner to avoid irreparable damage.

But what about putting a prosthetic-like organ on your body?
It not only increases the upper limit of its own genetic potential, but also can use medicine on it as it pleases, and the acquired genetic ability takes effect directly, just like itself.

If prosthetics are made into special shapes, wouldn’t they be weapons, equipment, and mounts?
Living equipment.

Continuously growing and evolving equipment.

Or, special equipment like a mechanical exoskeleton.

The technology of Atlantis is very advanced, especially the research and exploration of life.

It's just that their main research objects are creatures in the ocean, and their research direction is genetic medicine.

Ant systems are different.

The host's research direction is insects. He has no intention of making medicine, but directly transforms life from the root.

To be more specific, the cornerstone of host research life is metamorphosis.

Through methods such as cocooning, molting, and pupation, the qualitative change of life is fundamentally achieved.

The other is to restore life to the state of a fertilized egg, directly edit the genetic material, and control the transformation and evolution of life from the source.

Xi Tong's inspiration is that these two civilizations with very different styles seem to be able to be combined.

For example, the Beetle vehicle that the host is making can completely be made into some kind of full-coverage armor or battle suit according to the technology of Atlantis.

Mechanical exoskeletons, individual combat mechs, or simply made into Gundam.

In Xi Tong's view, Gundam has no remarkable technological content.

The technology it needs can be produced, and the materials it needs can be found, and it is more excellent, exquisite, and high-end.

Not only that, Xitong can also use alchemy and refining methods to temper materials, strengthen parts, or arrange formations on the outer armor, and draw runes to give special attributes.

The most outrageous thing is that, as long as the design is proper, this kind of individual combat mech can even be as high as it is, and can be mass-produced like laying eggs, and hatched and cultivated like chickens.

The assembly line operation method in mechanized mass production has been touted constantly, but in Xitong's view, this method has become decadent and outdated.

Assembly line operations require a vast factory, a mountain of raw materials, and densely packed labor or robotic arms.

Most importantly, the assembly line is a step-by-step error, and it must be equipped with a powerful error correction system.

Pipelining seems efficient.

In fact, this process is extremely cumbersome and has extremely high requirements for stability. The collapse of any link means that the whole line is paralyzed.

It’s nothing in peacetime, but in a war environment, this production method is very easy to be targeted by the enemy and easily destroyed by the enemy.

Look at the production method used by the ant system.

It only needs to fill the edited genetic material into the nutrients, which means that the production is completed, and the rest is to find the environment for natural incubation and free production.

This means that it skips a series of production, assembly and inspection, and directly gives the finished product.

Although this finished product still needs to hatch and grow.

But in terms of production efficiency, it is a hundred times or a thousand times better to complete the assembly line operation.

No matter how powerful the assembly line operation is, it is just to break down the process and increase proficiency.

This process may simplify or overlap a few unnecessary processes, but no matter how powerful it is, it is impossible to compress the process to 1.

Raw eggs are fine.

Isn't it the combination of sperm and egg?

complete in one step.

Encapsulating edited genetic material into nutrients is neither complicated nor cumbersome.

Therefore, even in a war environment, the egg-laying machine can still run at high speed and produce efficiently. It is not easy to be targeted like an assembly line, and it will collapse once it is targeted.

Then there is the consumption of raw materials.

Assembly line operations require a variety of materials and components, which will inevitably increase a large number of supporting production lines.

These production lines all require a lot of materials. Once the materials are interrupted and the production line is shut down, there will be no assembly work.

But egg-laying machines are different.

Regardless of genetic material or nutrients, the raw materials consumed are very few, and the raw materials consumed are very common and easy to get.

The most important thing is that the hatching of eggs can be completed in a natural environment. After successful hatching, the living body can grow and become stronger through natural eating.

In comparison, the former is like the reproduction method of viviparous animals, and the latter is like the reproduction method of oviparous animals.

The viviparous method does improve the quality of the next generation, but this method is accompanied by huge risks and hidden dangers.

Human beings are the masters of the world, but it's okay to say that they can provide an absolutely safe environment for the next generation.

But what if human beings are not the masters of the world?
If human beings are hunted down and hunted by another powerful ruling creature, how much ability will a pregnant woman with limited mobility have to survive?How many searches and hunts can you avoid during the ten months of pregnancy?

Xi Tong couldn't help thinking.

Is viviparous birth really better than oviparous birth?
The number of eggs is increased. After laying eggs, the mother immediately regains freedom of movement, which increases her own safety and improves the viability of the next generation in disguise.

The quality of viviparous birth is improved, and the baby continues to develop in the mother's body, and has a longer time to improve its own precision.

Could this be another point of difference between the immortality faction and the reproduction faction?
Who chooses the way of reproduction?Who made it?

Why do human beings have to give birth?

What would happen if humans were egg-laying?
Xi Tong couldn't help imagining it in his mind.

If humans reproduce by laying eggs, it means that childbirth is no longer a hell, and women can lay one or two eggs every month.

In this way, both the woman and the egg become symbols of wealth, further aggravating the doom of the female reproductive machine.

Some men who can't marry a wife and want to have a child will choose to buy eggs and hatch them by themselves.

In this way, certain women with strong bodies, superior intelligence, and good looks will become sought-after goods.

Yes, that's right!

The same sex is true love, and the era when men and women only want to reproduce will truly come.
