"What about these wolf packs?" Jiang Yan Hai asked.
"They still retained some animal behavioral traits. After dissecting them, we found that their brains had not been damaged. But as for those suicidal charges that violated biological instincts, based on the information you discovered, we suspect it was related to their reproduction."
"When they could not find food, maintaining such a massive population was nearly impossible. And their offspring needed to grow. With no other option, they could only launch one attack after another. At present, based on the intelligence we have, humans are their best food source."
"As for the virus in their bodies, and our dissection and research on those two giant bears, we have not found any virus so far. We suspect this viral infection may operate at the genetic level."
"You mean their genes were directly altered by this virus in the first generation, and then, because of their reproductive traits, those altered genes were directly passed down to their descendants?" Jiang Yan Hai immediately asked with a grave expression.
Viruses that altered genes were not unheard of, but such changes usually only appeared in individual organisms. They might also be contagious, but passing altered genes directly to the next generation through reproduction...
And on such a massive scale. So far, nothing like it had been discovered in human history. Perhaps it had happened in ancient times, during eras of great evolutionary change, but at least not in modern society.
Clearly, the Red Mad Wolf was in precisely such a state.
"That is highly possible. Such a complete genetic alteration... this method is extremely dangerous. If this thing infects humans, it may also cause widespread contamination of human genes."
"Then, professors, I'll have to leave these matters to you. We still haven't found the Ghost Gate
