Age of Mecha: Divine-grade Genetic Extraction

Chapter 115: Genetic Memory

Peter didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with Callie’s anxious mood. Meanwhile, the new Thunder God genes that he had been waiting for had been successfully developed by Professor Eugene.

When Peter returned to the dormitory, Callie was still at the hospital keeping Anna company.

Without Callie around, the dormitory seemed deserted. However, Peter liked this scene. He took a shower and changed into a comfortable set of home clothes before walking into the laboratory.

The laboratory was large and clean. There were many instruments and devices. These devices were the most advanced scientific instruments and devices in the Federation. Of course, several of the important devices were designed and assembled by Professor Eugene.

Obtaining these devices had cost Peter almost all of his savings. In this regard, he didn’t use Callie’s money, nor did he tell her what he was going to study with these devices. Callie didn’t ask him either as she only cared about Peter. As for what he did, she didn’t care. This might be the difference between a girl from a big family and some ordinary girls. They knew what should be controlled and what not to ask.

Meanwhile, Peter was satisfied with Callie’s behavior. As a man, he didn’t want to tell all his secrets to a woman, such as what the device in front of him was! He wouldn’t tell anyone about it, including Callie.

Peter walked up to a transparent device. It was designed by Professor Eugene after countless days and nights. He looked at the round unit in the device, took a deep breath, and gently pressed a button on the device!

In an instant, the machine began to spin slowly, emitting a somewhat dazzling white light.

A spiral object could be vaguely seen in the white light. This was the Thunder God genes. The Thunder God genes continued to rotate in the device. As the rotation accelerated, the genes began to disintegrate and eventually melted into a light purple liquid.

Peter looked at the liquid in the device. His face was very red from excitement and nervousness.

The purple liquid swirled around the device. Suddenly, a miniature lightning bolt appeared from the liquid, breaking some kind of balance in the liquid. Then, the purple liquid began to churn, and the device began to shake violently.

After a short while, the device returned to normal. Meanwhile, the purple liquid in the device gave off a tempting luster.

Peter’s eyes flashed with greed and madness. Would it work? Would the final remaining form of this gene be the final form of the Thunder God genes?

As the purple liquid slowly entered Peter’s blood vessels, the system prompt sounded in his mind.

[Thunder God genes detected. Extracting…]

[You have extracted 2.11% of Thunder God genes. Congratulations to the host for obtaining a physical enhancement.]

It had really succeeded. This was hundreds of times more than the amount of Thunder God genes he had extracted previously. If he continued to extract the genes at this rate, Peter’s power would definitely reach the level of the Thunder God.

However, the system prompt that appeared next in Peter’s mind when he was absorbing the purple liquid surprised him.

[You have reached the upper limit of Thunder God gene extraction.]

[You can only extract the genes again after 30 days.]

In other words, there was a time limit to this brand new extraction method. However, even so, the progress was much faster than when he extracted the Thunder God genes previously.

…

Professor Eugene had used almost all the known methods to study genes. Among these methods, he had discovered a magical phenomenon. According to the Big Bang Theory of the Universe, compressing and decomposing genetic tissue in absolute space would dissolve genes to the greatest extent.

After experimenting, Professor Eugene also discovered that the dissolved genes would not completely die. Instead, they would leave behind residue, which would form atoms that produced the purple liquid.

At first, Professor Eugene didn’t know what this residue was. He repeatedly analyzed the final gene residue and finally obtained a shocking guess that this form was a genetic memory.

He guessed this because he realized that when genes were in a liquid state, not only did they have protective attributes, they could also produce weak electric currents.

As a result, the final form of genes could produce weak thought waves. What did that mean? It meant that it had a mind. At the very least, it had a certain state of mind.

But how would genes have thoughts? This was unless they had memories. Could this be the so-called genetic memories? Professor Eugene made a bold guess. However, to prove his guess, the method was very simple. He would connect the genes to the thought imaging system.

The thought imaging system was a device that could read thoughts. It could transform thoughts into images.

However, given the current level of technology in the Federation, it was impossible to create such a device. However, there was definitely such technology in that mysterious Holy War Organization.

This was the technology that Professor Eugene wanted to obtain. However, he had gone through countless experiments, but they all ended in failure. For this reason, even after racking his brains, he was still unable to connect the residual form of the genes with the thought imaging system.

“Don’t worry, Professor Eugene. There will be a way.”

Peter tried to comfort Professor Eugene so that he would not be disappointed.

“Master, I’ve experimented many times during this period. I should be very close to success. The genetic conversion device that John provided has given me a lot of inspiration.”

At this moment, the image on the screen that was connected to the device changed. As a result, the purple liquid became very unstable and began to show signs of resistance.

The memories in the Thunder God genes seemed to sense danger. As it was swallowed at the speed of light, it chose to self-destruct. Fortunately, an explosion in a microscopic world did not have serious consequences.

This was the result of every experiment. However, Professor Eugene was not willing to give up. He studied the gene conversion device again and tried to find a way to prevent the genetic memories from destroying themselves.

After an entire night of experiments, Peter didn’t have the patience to stay with Professor Eugene and simply slept during the experiments. Meanwhile, Professor Eugene conducted each experiment meticulously. Although he was a soul slave, his thoughts were normal. Thus, his greatest interest in life was still to study the technology of genes.

Professor Eugene’s eyes were fixed on the device. This time, he was excited to discover that the genetic memories did not self-destruct. Instead, it was as if he saw a familiar friend slowly approaching him.

“I’m going to succeed!”

Professor Eugene was extremely excited. After countless failures, he finally saw the possibility that the final form of the genes could be connected to the thought imaging system. How could he not be excited!

Peter’s eyes lit up as he looked at the device. He saw that the speed of light had finally merged with the arc!

Crack!

The moment the connection succeeded, Professor Eugene almost shouted out of excitement. He tried his best to control his emotions and looked at the large virtual screen of the thought imaging system!

Then, a strange scene suddenly appeared on the screen.
