ARC 7 : I AM NOT A MERMAN

Chapter 66

"Dr. Cui, have you found something?" Qin Yuan asked the very emotional Dr. Cui when he arrived at the laboratory.

Dr. Cui pointed at the screen and said with disbelief, "The blood we drew from Flames and other tissue samples contain a very miraculous matter. Through our repeated tests, we found that it could quickly promote cell growth and evolution, restore damage and even change the genome of an organism. I am certain, that there is a great change from Flames compared to the dolphins two hundred years ago, or I should say, evolution."

"Does it endanger Flames in any way?" Qin Yuan asked worriedly.

"At the moment, we have not found anything danger from it. On the contrary, if our speculations are true, Flames should be even more healthy and long-lived than normal dolphins." Dr. Cui paused, then spoke again, "I think that the dolphin epidemic two hundred years ago, rather than a natural disaster, it would be better to call it a cruel natural filter. Four hundred years, humans have also suffered from a global FD virus invasion, it almost snatched away a hundred million lives. The people who survived, not only has the basic foundation of their body been greatly enhanced, their body functions also seem to have underwent different levels of development. The current universal belief is that this kind of development is some kind of special evolution."

Qin Yuan coldly intercepted, "This so-called evolution gravely influenced humanity's ability to reproduce and the population birth rate is on a straight decline. In nearly a year, the population of newborns in the entire world did not even surpass forty million, it has already reached a dangerous critical level."

The current human life expectancy was about 180 years, yet the birth rate was reduced by six folds. Every five couples might not even have a single child, even if they used science, the pregnancy rate was only 37%.

"I believe that humanity will very quickly work together to solve this difficult problem." Dr. Cui was rather confident about it, so he did not care to much. At the present time, he was more concern about the sole two dolphins remaining.

Qin Yuan did not plan to go into a deep discussion on the subject, and he suddenly switched subjects, "How old is Flames?"

"He's around twelve or thirteen, right in the age for maturity."

Matured at twelve to thirteen? From what Qin Yuan knows, the average lifespan of wild dolphins were about fifty years, according to human standard, Flames should still be a child.

"Does this mean Waves is not Flames' child?" Qin Yuan asked again.

"No." Dr. Cui answered, "We had already done a DNA test, they are not directly related. There might be other dolphins living in the ocean, but our investigation group still haven't found them."

Hearing the news that Waves wasn't Flames' child, Qin Yuan felt a strange happiness bubble in his heart.

After he walked out of the research room, he habitually headed for the pool.

At the moment, Flames was leading the small dolphin and leaping in the water. That cheerful and lighthearted scene caused his cold face to somewhat soften without his notice.

Qin Yuan looked at the gloomy sky. There would be a rainstorm in two days, he needs to start preparations early.

The next day, Shang Ke and Waves were led to the inner pools of the base. There, several areas were segregated to bred many different types of marine life.

The change in the weather caused the marine life in the base to move about uneasily, they transmitted to each other information that humans could not comprehend.
