"Ding! The host is over 18 years old, the activation conditions are met, and the system is being activated..."
"The genetic evolution system has been successfully activated."
"I hope you enjoy this wonderful journey."
On the afternoon before the college entrance examination, Addison was concentrating on reviewing, and a series of voices suddenly rang in his mind.
"What is this?" Addison was stunned, subconsciously wondering if he was hallucinating.
But as soon as the voice fell, a stream of information poured into his mind like a torrent. Then, Addison was surprised to find that he could "see" every cell in his body very clearly.
Epithelial cells, nerve cells, red blood cells, white blood cells, phagocytes, fat cells, lymphocytes, etc., without missing a single one. He could see the internal structure of cells, the substances that make up cells, and even the dynamic changes of cells.
Not only that, he had perfect control over every cell of his. Operations such as inducing cell division, modifying genes, and regulating chemical reactions inside cells are no problem for him.
In short, he can edit cells at will. If each cell is compared to a microscopic world, then he is undoubtedly the master of this world, and everything in the world can operate according to his wishes.
"Wow, this is quite interesting!" Addison couldn't help but get excited and couldn't wait to try it out.
"Cells are rich in proteins, which are composed of atoms such as C, H, O, and N, while diamonds are only composed of C atoms. So... I think I can first decompose proteins into atoms such as C, H, and O, and then use C atoms to synthesize diamonds."
Thinking of this, Addison immediately took action. He selected a skin cell through his mind, then disassembled the protein molecules in the cell into atoms one by one, and then used C atoms to synthesize diamonds.
This was not difficult for him, after all, he was familiar with the molecular structure of diamonds.
"Success!" When Addison saw the diamond appearing in the cell, his eyes lit up instantly. It turns out that this gene evolution system really allows him to edit cells at will! Of course, there is a price to pay. The cell used in the experiment just now has lost its activity and is declared dead because the protein molecules have been decomposed. However, there are about 60 trillion cells in the human body, and the disappearance of a single cell is really not a big deal. What's more, he also has the ability to control cell division. "By the way, I seem to be able to make cells divide infinitely!" As soon as this thought flashed through Addison's brain, it seemed to be blown up. He knew what this meant. The reason why people age is essentially because the cells in the body age, the metabolism slows down, the cell renewal rate slows down, and eventually the related organs function declines. And now that he can control the infinite division of cells, doesn't this mean... He may be able to achieve immortality! "It's awesome!" Addison had to admit that this gene evolution system was really amazing, and it gave him a huge surprise right from the start. However, he was only 18 years old, and immortality was too far away for him. After a while of excitement, he began to think about other uses of the gene evolution system.
Could it be used to make diamonds? That would be a waste of talent. Moreover, cells themselves are so small that they are invisible to the naked eye, and the volume of diamonds made in cells is even smaller. It is a bit ridiculous to do so.
Addison was thinking in his mind that he would use the gene evolution system to uncover the mysteries of the human body, explore the secrets of genes, and then conduct various biological experiments and study biotechnology. In this way, wealth and fame will naturally come uninvited.
"The college entrance examination will be tomorrow. If I can improve my thinking and memory ability, my grades will definitely be better. In this case, let's study the human memory mechanism first."
Thinking of this, Addison immediately took action. He picked up the review materials and read them attentively, while observing the changes in cells in the body through the gene evolution system.
As a top student, Addison reads a lot of extracurricular books on weekdays and is quite familiar with the structure of the human body. Therefore, he soon noticed that some of the nerve cells in the hippocampus had changed when he was reading the review materials.
"It turns out that this is how memories are stored and fixed in the nerve cells of the hippocampus." Addison whispered to himself excitedly.
The human memory mechanism has always been a difficult problem that the scientific community has not yet completely solved. And at this moment, he actually witnessed the entire process of memory generation with his own eyes. If scientists knew that he had this ability, they would probably be envious.
Of course, he would definitely not reveal this secret, otherwise it would bring him unimaginable trouble.
"So, how is memory extracted?" Addison then started a new attempt, trying to recall something that had happened.
"So that's it..." Before long, Addison figured out the entire process of memory extraction. Then, he began to study the memories in his mind, and only then did he find that many memories had long been dormant in his mind, and even he himself had forgotten them completely, but they were still stored in the nerve cells. This feeling made him feel amazing.
Next, Addison turned his attention to a new question: Which cells will change during the thinking process, and what kind of changes will occur?
Time passed slowly without noticing, and in a blink of an eye, three hours had passed. Although Addison felt a little tired, he was very happy. Because through the study of thinking and memory mechanisms, he clearly felt that his thinking and memory abilities had improved significantly.
However, he didn't know how much he had improved, so he planned to test it by doing questions.
"Wow... This effect is amazing!" As soon as he picked up a math test paper, Addison realized that he seemed to have been reborn. When he saw the question, the relevant knowledge points automatically emerged in his mind, and his memory was extremely clear. He could recite the corresponding content in the textbook word for word. Not only that, the questions that used to require careful calculations on draft paper can now be easily solved by mental arithmetic.
This state is just like the protagonist in the science fiction movie "Limitless" who took NZT-48, and his brain potential was completely stimulated, and his thinking and memory abilities increased by more than ten times.
Swish! Addison wrote as if he had a god. When he saw the question, the answer fell on the test paper almost at the same time. A math test paper was completed in less than 20 minutes. What's more exaggerated is that he actually got full marks.
"It seems that the college entrance examination results are expected to improve significantly this time. I originally thought that if I performed normally, I would at most get the first place in the whole school and then enter Harvard University. I didn't expect to get this "magic weapon" by accident. Now it seems that I can definitely challenge the provincial champion!" Addison was so happy.
