Chapter 873: 473. The Secret of the Bloodline
"C12, Jamir to Room 4 for blood collection."
"Coming, coming!"
Jamir, dressed in a hospital gown, hurried excitedly into the examination room upon hearing his name called.
The bio-human assistant cultivated by N4 had just completed the examination of the previous person, who had a health bracelet on their wrist. With the assistant's typing on the keyboard, it wasn't long before the blood test results were out.
This data would be synchronized with the status of the health bracelet for easy inspection by the experimenters and would also be uploaded to the cloud for analysis by the scholar team led by N4.
The bio-human glanced at the data and earnestly told the examinee:
"Everything is generally normal, but your blood sugar is a bit low. Hurry up and have breakfast; I suggest you take two mints at the entrance to avoid discomfort caused by low blood sugar."
"Sure, thank you very much."
The person receiving the check-up habitually saluted, brushed past Jamir, and headed excitedly towards the cafeteria.
"Next, Mr. Jamir C12, right?"
"Yes, it's me. Are we checking for routine blood and biochemical markers?"
Jamir was no longer nervous. He wasn't wearing a translator device, and although he spoke with a slight accent, he was quite fluent.
"Not today; according to the grouping, the dosage for Group C is relatively small, so earlier effects might not be very noticeable. We're doing a relevant test to see if you've inherited the Bloodline of Your Excellency Leoz."
The bio-human motioned for Jamir to sit and relax, raising his arm into the machine. Without even feeling any pain, Jamir sensed a suction drawing a little blood from him.
"Alright, blood collection is complete; please wait a moment. The machine is currently analyzing the results, and once it's complete, you'll be free to go."
Jamir wasn't in a hurry to leave; he looked around curiously and asked the bio-human:
"Has anyone successfully inherited Your Excellency Leoz's Bloodline yet?"
"Not yet."
The bio-human said regretfully:
"This isn't something easy; otherwise, they wouldn't have invited you over with such aggressive methods."
"What is the reason? Is it because there's not enough of His Excellency Leoz's Divine Blood, or is there a lack of other elements?"
"We're investigating this as well. Before starting human trials, we did a lot of animal experiments. With ordinary mice, they all received the Bloodline, but for some reason, it's not as effective when applied to humans."
"I see..."
Jamir nodded.
Recently, he diligently studied a lot of knowledge, ranging from reading materials on the ship to gaining some understanding of cosmic knowledge.
Thinking about how he arrived in such a vast Starry Abyss and met such a kind-hearted demigod like His Excellency Leoz, saving him from the danger of being attacked by Society and captured as a laborer, Jamir felt even more admiration for Leoz.
"I really want to merge with the Bloodline quickly to help relieve Your Excellency Leoz's burdens."
Jamir mused.
"Yes, there will be one successful case eventually."
The bio-human doctor didn't tell him that the fourth wave of the Slave Catcher Squad had already set out.
Each time, they would bring back at least 300 extraterrestrial creatures, from humans, elves, goblins, and beastmen to angels with wings, fully enshrouded in sacred fire.
All these creatures were placed on various research ships, and since the start of this project, it hasn't stopped.
Research on Sequential Arcane Energy requires countless efforts, manpower, and money, with scarce returns.
Just like now, clearly, the Bloodline shows great results in animals, with 1.207 milliliters of Li Aozi's blood completely rewriting the genes of a mature rat.
This is the essence of the power of the Bloodline.
The Bloodline is a superpower of the bloodline, not of the person.
This statement may sound redundant, but in reality, humans have never been able to control their own genes. Consciousness and the brain are merely by-products of life's reproduction; what truly controls life is bloodline genes.
And the reason Bloodline is a passive Arcane Energy is that it is an Arcane Energy controlled by bloodline, genes, and reproductive cells.
N4's research team reached this conclusion, which directly caused a sensation.
Because this implies that Arcane Energy is not an existence unique to life; it's truly like an administrator's authority, which can be human-controlled or managed by the genes within the human body.
Today, it could be unconscious genes; tomorrow, it could be insulin, or the liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys might even control Arcane Energy, even Sequential Arcane Energy.
Although discovering this was due to the exchange between Li Aozi and Mr. Liue, saving many wrong paths, Mr. Liue was also greatly shocked upon hearing the experimental results.
"The Life Commune's research stopped at 'Arcane Energy as Mandate', whereas you seem close to discovering where the 'authority' comes from."
Mr. Liue, now elderly, with various injuries sustained when he was young, had his Pathway wasted, yet even as a retired elder of Delta Rank, he insisted on coming once.
"This Sequential Arcane Energy named Bloodline might become a new aid for our understanding of life."
Were it not for the confidentiality agreement, many team members would have wanted to publish in journals.
However, Li Aozi was not a scholar. Unlike N4's optimism with these theoretical breakthroughs, Li Aozi felt disappointed.
The reason was simple: because, until now, his Slave Catcher Squads have captured 28 types of extraterrestrial creatures, with thousands of specimens, but not a single entity has undergone Boodline transformation.
