Sasa patted the delivery box beside her and smiled at Yan Luo, "The item I ordered is finally here!"
The blood analyzer was a precision instrument and should have been transported in the highest grade protective delivery box. However, the blood analyzer Sasa purchased was black market merchandise from an unknown source, requiring disguise, and thus couldn’t use the highest grade protective delivery box.
In fact, the blood analyzer was sent in batches, with the delivery address filled out as Yanluo Villa. The delivery box beside Sasa contained the final component.
Luckily, the seller was somewhat considerate. Upon opening the delivery box of the main parts, Sasa found a link to an installation instruction video.
Although termed ’installation instructions,’ it was just a video casually shot by the seller while dismantling the blood analyzer.
Sasa and Yan Luo assembled the blood analyzer slowly according to the video. As luck would have it, not a single component was missing or extra; all components were used up.
Looking at the result of her labor, Sasa nodded in satisfaction, turning to Yan Luo and saying, "I was quite worried there would be extra components left after assembly."
"Me too," Yan Luo replied.
The blood analyzer was a multifunctional instrument resembling an experimental bench, capable of conducting blood analysis from a genetic level. However, it was just a ’blood’ analyzer and couldn’t delve much deeper into the genetic level.
"Though it’s using a monkey version of the system and can’t use all functions, the basic ones are still there."
Although itching to study Yan Luo’s blood immediately, the room housing the blood analyzer wasn’t a sterile environment, so it needed to be sterilized before starting the research.
The room housing the blood analyzer was the basement of Yanluo Villa. Sasa planned to convert it into a semi-permanent sterile room, facilitating her research on Yan Luo there.
The blood analyzer was just the beginning; she also intended to purchase other instruments in the future to study other parts of Yan Luo’s body.
Sasa and Yan Luo cleaned up the basement together, quickly clearing out all the unnecessary items. Then, with Yan Luo’s help, Sasa installed the components for simple sterilization, turning the basement into a sterile environment.
Afterward, Yan Luo was chased out of the basement by Sasa.
Although it was his house, if Yan Luo wandered in and out of the sterile room at will, it would ruin the hard-earned sterile environment, possibly affecting the analysis results.
Even the blood extraction work was done in the living room by Sasa.
After drawing a few vials of Yan Luo’s blood, Sasa plunged into the basement to start researching Yan Luo’s blood.
Despite earlier indications that Yan Luo’s body structure was deviating from human, it was only after deeply researching Yan Luo’s blood that Sasa realized that ’deviating from human’ was still a compliment for Yan Luo.
Yan Luo’s blood oxygen-carrying capacity was terrifying, almost double that of an average person, and his cells’ efficiency in absorbing oxygen was much higher than a regular Blue Star person.
Considering that Yan Luo’s lungs had also been enhanced, even without professional training, he could hold his breath underwater for over ten minutes.
Moreover, if not for Sasa promptly applying anti-coagulation treatment to Yan Luo’s blood, it would fully coagulate in just a few minutes when simply left alone.
Sasa had previously set aside part of the blood as a control group, which had completely coagulated by now.
Even more surprisingly, the coagulated blood had excellent water retention, still holding a lot of moisture despite coagulating.
Next, Sasa researched Yan Luo’s blood cells, discovering that Yan Luo’s cell membrane strength was several percentage points higher than an average person’s.
Although this didn’t directly suggest that Yan Luo’s body strength was several times higher than ordinary people, it surely implied that his skin and muscles were much tougher than an average person’s.
The nutrients in Yan Luo’s blood were more complex than normal, with higher relative density, making it more viscous.
Yet, this blood surged through Yan Luo’s body like a river, with a slightly faster circulation speed than usual, enough to illustrate how robust his heart was now.
The hormone concentration in the blood was high enough that it could propel ordinary people to the steroid planet countless times.
The only saving grace was that Yan Luo was still a human from a genetic standpoint.
Yes, just a 0.03% difference, still considered human.
"In other words, if Yan Luo could have a child with a person, his child would likely inherit some of his traits, naturally being stronger compared to others..."
Feeling compelled to mutter to herself as she looked at the analysis results on the screen, Sasa spoke.
As for whether Yan Luo’s child could inherit Yan Luo’s ability to consume magic power to enhance himself... Sasa felt it was unlikely.
Yan Luo’s ability to consume magic power stemmed mainly from his constitution with extremely low magic power adaptability. If Yan Luo’s child’s magic power adaptability were above ’extremely low,’ they wouldn’t possibly acquire this ability.
After pondering in this direction for a moment, Sasa shook her head, casting aside the extraneous thoughts.
Yan Luo was only eighteen years old, focused solely on eliminating the Abyss. Persuading him to have a child was a difficult matter; he wouldn’t agree to have one for her research.
Moreover, she herself couldn’t accept such a thing; she hadn’t gone insane enough to use a child as a research subject.
Better to continue researching Yan Luo’s blood...
In the afternoon, after finishing a day’s workout, Yan Luo walked out from the gym and saw Sasa sitting in a chair in the dining room, having barely touched her food, seemingly immersed in her world.
Sasa hadn’t had lunch, so this should count as dinner, but she only had a few bites, merely pacifying her stomach a bit before continuing her research.
Yan Luo sat across from Sasa, asked Keke to prepare a meal for him, and then inquired of Sasa, "How’s it going?"
"... It’s going alright; you’re still considered a human."
Sasa didn’t react immediately, and only after five seconds did she leisurely respond, "The genetic deviation from a normal person is 0.03%, and you can still have children with a Blue Star person."
Yan Luo frowned slightly, "Why bring that up?"
It turned out to be just as he imagined; Yan Luo had no interest in offspring matters whatsoever.
Sasa shifted her focus from the analysis results to Yan Luo, scooping up a mouthful of food as she spoke, "Compared to an average person, your blood’s coagulation speed and hormone concentration have far surpassed them. One breath of yours is equivalent to two or three of a normal person. In extreme environments, your survival capability is undoubtedly stronger than ordinary people.
"Although I don’t have other instruments on hand, I dare to conclude that even without food and drink, you could live at least seven days, even without losing physical strength in the first three days due to lack of food — these are the conclusions and deductions from my research today."
After listening, Yan Luo shook his head, "I feel you’re just stating the obvious."
Sasa, unpleased, raised her chopsticks and pointed at Yan Luo, "I just picked statements you could understand. If you don’t want to hear this ’nonsense,’ I could easily tell you the data obtained from the blood analysis. Do you want to hear it?"
Yan Luo remained silent for a few seconds, "... No, it’s alright."
His education was up to high school; although his grades were decent, he couldn’t compare to Sasa at all.
Sasa was not only a sophomore but also intelligent, having almost completed her undergraduate knowledge and about to pursue graduate studies.
If she could pass the coming exams, she could jump directly to the graduate level, skipping two more years of undergraduate studies.
For a genius, that constituted a waste of time, so many universities provide talented students with some privileges.
Sasa could spit out many professional phrases, which Yan Luo surely couldn’t comprehend, thus he chose not to humiliate himself by asking.
Sasa shoved a mouthful of rice into her mouth, speech muffled and unclear as she said, "Yan Luo, you’re heading toward the path deviating from humanity, and there’s still a chance to stop now."
Yan Luo calmly said, "I won’t stop."
