Live Wilderness Adventure

Chapter 843 Mitochondria

Bi Fang appeared in front of a huge camp on a camel.

Returned to the address where the tomb was previously discovered.

Bi Fang was not in a hurry to go back, he also wanted to see the follow-up of the development of the ancient tomb.

Walking along the Nile River, I am not sure when I will find the town, so I might as well come to the camp to hitchhike. If I want to come to Vaziri and others, they will not refuse, and even welcome them.

Sure enough, Vaziri walked out of the ancient tomb on purpose, welcomed Bi Fang's return, and showed him the camp under construction.

A day later, the construction here has been in full swing.

Looking at at least a dozen white tents in the sand, these are not ordinary camping tents, claiming to be one, but a mobile building similar to a yurt supported by a huge tent cloth.

Two huge trucks and a water storage vehicle stayed outside the camp, and pieces of equipment were removed from above, and dust was flying in some places.

In the center of the camp, Bi Fang also saw two white plastic barrels at least three meters high, which are devices filled with fresh water. Various simple water pipes are connected to the bottom, leading to each tent, which is convenient for taking and even taking a bath. .

Don't worry about running out of water. You can take a bath if you want. The water storage truck will come here every day. It's not too far from the nearest city, only less than 300 kilometers away.

Waziri said proudly.

There are many ruins in Egypt, and the branches are very concentrated, basically all on the west side of the Nile.

Because the Egyptian people at that time had special worship for the Nile River, and they chose the West Bank because they believed that the west was the place where the sun sets, and it was the city of the dead, and the dead would come back from here.

In this way, because we often have to work in the field, it is necessary to think of a conventional tent that can provide convenience as much as possible.

Transportation is also very convenient, just need a few trucks to advance along the Nile.

A group of professors and scholars don't want to eat dirt in the yellow sand bitterly, of course they come here as they feel comfortable.

Before Bi Fang left, seeing the large-scale construction of the camp was also one of the reasons why he decided to come back.

Otherwise, Kuhaha would not be happy to come back and squeeze into a small tent with a group of sweaty men after a busy day.

Hard work is a virtue, but it is not necessary.

Suffering is nothing but suffering, and thinking about suffering is the real value.

After tens of billions of years of deep sleep.

Humanity finally woke up on this gorgeous planet.

Be endowed with the brilliance of color and the abundance of life.

However, in a few decades, they will close their eyes again.

Such a lucky few have won the jackpot of birth among many possibilities, and of course they have to choose to live the life they want.

Otherwise, isn't it too sad?

After a brief walk around the camp, Bi Fang told Vaziri that he wanted to take a break.

After walking in the desert for more than two months, Bi Fang was really tired. Vaziri understood this and immediately sent someone to take him to a tent with the best facilities, although not the largest.

Bi Fang moved Alpha to a shade shed built beside him, asked someone to prepare some water and food for him, and then entered the tent alone, which immediately opened his eyes.

The cylindrical tent structure makes the interior look spacious and bright. The aluminum alloy bracket and nylon fabric are firm and light. The blazing sunlight penetrates the thick fabric layer, leaving only just enough good visual light in the end.

A single bed is sideways, and to the right of the bed there is a simple desk and bench with a lamp, and to the left is a wooden barrel with a faucet on it, followed by plastic pipes.

Obviously, the plastic water pipes were connected to the two large buckets in the center of the dozen or so tents.

The ground is bare sand, which is not bad, but adds to the fun.

Although the furnishings are very simple, it is rare and precious in the desert, and it can be called luxury.

Bi Fang took two steps forward and lay down directly on the bed. The heat from his whole body was sucked away, the bones stretched to their heart's content, making a stiff clicking sound, and the strong muscles softened.

After closing his eyes and squinting for a while, Bi Fang jumped up from the bed and went outside the tent. Seeing that Alpha had already eaten the fodder sent by the staff, he turned and went back to the room, put water in the wooden barrel, and prepared to take a good wash. bath.

There was no hot water and no need for hot water.

The weather is hot during the day, and the fresh water placed outdoors is also scalding hot, so you can wash it by jumping in.

After taking a shower, Bi Fang asked someone to borrow a brand new pair of razors and scissors, and tidied up his personal image in front of the mirror.

In the wilderness, Bi Fang can also shave his beard, but he can't shave it clean with a knife, and often leaves one or two millimeters of stubble.

The same is true for the hair, which has only been cut once with a knife from Nemo's point to today.

Now that he has more convenient tools, Bi Fang feels that his head has been refreshed quickly, his chin has become smooth again, a lot of broken hair has fallen down, and only a few stubbles remain on both sides of his temples, and his whole body is refreshed again.

After so many times of doing it by himself, Bi Fang has already developed a good skill. Although he can't do many hairstyles, it is not difficult to make himself a refreshing short haircut.

After finishing it, Bi Fang rinsed it under the faucet again, washed away the excess broken hair, and then put on the new clothes just delivered, just a T-shirt and big pants. almost.

After tidying up, Bi Fang sat down at the desk and clicked on the system panel.

Two combined missions, plus a side mission, the rewards are distributed at one time, which is undoubtedly very generous.

[The final rewards are: high-level skill strengthening coupon*2, muscle control strengthening coupon*1, mitochondrial strengthening coupon*1, strengthening point*5, wilderness points*5047. 】

Bi Fang thought about the skill strengthening coupons, and added them all to the Wilderness Traveler, fully upgrading it to become orange full level.

After a period of brainstorming, Bi Fang opened his eyes again, with a little joy in his eyes.

The wilderness traveler is his foundation, and this skill has almost been perfected since then. As for the higher level of red, Bi Fang has not found a way to improve it now.

If it wasn't for the system to show that it really existed, Bi Fang would have doubted whether it was fake.

To enhance high-level skills, in addition to coupons, you also need to add a strengthening point. At this time, Bi Fang still has the last three points left. Looking at his four-dimensional attributes, he added one point for strength and two points for fineness.

Leaving aside wilderness points, these things are all thrown into the mall.

Bi Fang set his sights on the highlight of this reward, a voucher for muscle control enhancement and a voucher for mitochondrial enhancement.

This kind of reinforcement coupon that is biased towards a certain aspect has always been a treasure among treasures.

The chances of it appearing in the store are extremely low. In the past two years, when Bi Fang frequently refreshed the store, he never appeared.

It can be seen from this that obtaining from missions is the only way to obtain this strongest reward.

Muscle Control Strengthening Voucher.

Just by the name, you know the function. It is nothing more than increasing the ability to control the muscles, allowing you to perform more detailed micro-manipulation.

Human muscles are extremely complex.

Muscle strength is manifested in many aspects, such as absolute strength, speed strength, strength endurance, and dynamic strength.

Dynamic strength refers to strength that can sustain more reps.

The representative of absolute strength is the masticatory muscles. In 1986, a man in Florida released a bite force of 442 kilograms in 2 seconds, setting a world record.

Dynamic strength is represented by the extraocular muscles. The extraocular muscles can pull the eyeballs at least 10,000 times in the process of reading a book for an hour, and people can read for several hours continuously.

According to research, the extraocular muscle movements when watching movies are far more frequent than reading books, far more than 10,000 times per hour, and ordinary people can watch movies for several hours.

An immeasurable champion of absolute strength is the Zigong muscle.

The powerful contractions during childbirth are the most powerful muscles in the body, but this force is influenced by hormones and other biochemical factors and therefore cannot be measured.

The heart muscle is the king of strength endurance as it jumps from birth to death.

The most powerful of the isolated muscles is the gluteus maximus.

The gluteus maximus is the main antigravity muscle that keeps a person upright. All movements done upright by humans require the gluteus maximus to exert strength.

There is also the calf soleus muscle below.

The calf muscle is the muscle with the strongest external force. It does not mean that the calf muscle itself can generate much force, but that the toe is the fulcrum when raising the heel, using the principle of labor-saving leverage, showing a great external force.

Most of the skeletal muscles in the human body exert force and pull the bones, which are completed in the form of laborious levers. Therefore, as a small number of labor-saving levers, the calf muscles often perform more prominently.

The king of muscular functions is the tongue.

The tongue is rich in nerves and blood vessels, and it is composed of eight muscles, which are the real muscles of the human body.

These muscles are incredible, but they are also inseparable from their proficient control.

If the control can be enhanced, their performance will definitely be improved.

In addition to saving stamina in the wilderness, this is also a very high strengthening of the body itself.

The most intuitive point is that Bi Fang can achieve higher explosive and attack effects by letting more muscles work together.

There is a very interesting saying that if a human being can fully utilize every muscle, the sum of its total body strength can reach 25 tons.

This is of course nonsense.

It's not because of any body structure that can't support it, but the reason is that it is impossible for a person to use the strength of the sphincter muscles in straight punches, which is disrespectful and extremely rude.

Many of them are laborious levers.

However, the spread of this statement also proves that the potential of the human body is indeed higher than many people imagined.

Use the Muscle Mastery Enhancement Coupon.

The gold certificate turned into a golden light in his mind, shattered with a bang, and turned into countless pieces of gold powder, rushing deep into his body.

Sitting on the stool, Bi Fang quickly felt the temperature of his body rising from his height, and soon began to sweat profusely. With his mouth dry, Bi Fang grabbed the water glass beside him and drank it down, one after another.

It was not until nearly three liters of water submerged and Bi Fang was about to add salt to the water that the changes in his body gradually stopped and the temperature gradually receded.

Holding his dizzy brain, Bi Fang, who took a shower for nothing, had no choice but to go under the faucet and rinse it once. The dripping water dripped from the thick plastic plate into the desert, and soon evaporated and disappeared.

call!

Bi Fang took a deep breath and soon felt something strange.

Breathe deeper.

After taking two steps, I felt more relaxed, as if I didn't need to exert much effort, and I felt like I was walking on clouds.

Then jump, run, squat, backflip, handstand.

One after another, the movements that ordinary people seem to be very strenuous are all done very easily under Bi Fang's demonstration.

These movements are not difficult for Bi Fang. Before strengthening, he can do it easily with his physical fitness, but now he is more calm.

and

Bi Fang, who was in a one-handed handstand, put his right hand directly behind his back, actively disrupting his balance, but his body did not move at all under a series of fine-tuning.

It's amazing.

Bi Fang muttered to himself.

The combination of strengthening muscle control and strengthening the sense of balance has actually combined the effect of one plus one greater than two. When I stand on the ground with one hand, it feels no different from standing normally!

Bi Fang even found that he didn't even break a sweat!

So cool!

The expansion of the scope of ability is like expanding the house in which you live. There are obviously more things you can do, and you are more relaxed. From the body to the spirit, there is more relaxation. It seems that there is nothing impossible to feel powerful.

Bi Fang resumed supporting the ground with both hands, and then bent his arms to support it. With the coordination of the waist and abdomen, the whole person directly jumped upright in the inverted state.

It's just as incredible as an anime character.

After exercising his body, Bi Fang restrained his excitement and focused on the mitochondrial strengthening coupon.

Mitochondria

When Bi Fang saw this enhancement coupon for the first time, he couldn't believe it.

Anyone who has studied biology knows how powerful the role of mitochondria is, and they are the direct energy providers of biological activities!

Mitochondria are the energy factories of the cell. Its main job is to consume oxygen and burn three major nutrients: sugars, lipids and amino acids, to produce an energy currency - adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

This is aerobic respiration.

Without mitochondria, human beings would cease to exist, because the life activities of higher organisms consume a lot of energy, and the ATP produced by anaerobic glycolysis is only about 1/16 of aerobic oxidation.

A person has to decompose ATP equivalent to his body weight every day, so much ATP is not stored in the body, and the total weight of all ATP molecules in the human body is only about 50 grams.

In fact, each ATP molecule is reused 1000-1500 times per day.

Such a fast energy turnover rate depends on the efficient work of mitochondria.

And that's just the superficial role of mitochondria.

So far, the longest lifespan of human beings is 122 years, while some animals can live for more than 500 years. What determines the lifespan of human beings?

What's aging us, and what's stopping us from living forever?

Regarding aging, countless biological scientists have been researching one after another, trying to crack the secret of longevity. So far, many hypotheses have been put forward, the most famous of which is the theory of free radical aging.

Free radicals are produced in the course of cellular reactions. Human beings breathe every day and produce free radicals. The more free radicals, the faster aging may occur.

The main source of free radicals is the power plant in the body - mitochondria.

What does its reinforcement represent?

Bi Fang fell into deep thought for the first time.
