"Amine life, right?"

Lü Yongchang spoke softly.

The excitement on Mao Zhengzhi's face gradually froze, and he forcibly swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue.

"P-Professor... you'd already thought of it?"

Lü Yongchang continued watching the Holographic Projection ahead and waved a hand casually. "Like you, I only just thought of it."

Mao Zhengzhi let out a small sigh of relief, and his stiff expression relaxed a little.

"An amide, a compound in which an acyl group is bonded to a nitrogen atom-an organic substance formed by replacing the hydroxyl group in a carboxylic acid with an amino group." Lü Yongchang's eyes were filled with astonishment. "I never imagined it could replace basic amino acids to form polypeptide chains..."

Unlike Lü Yongchang, Mao Zhengzhi's eyes were filled with excitement.

As an academician in biology, he found this entirely new form of life as irresistible as a magnet!

Although they had only discovered pseudo-polypeptide chains and pseudo-proteins so far, the appearance of these organic substances directly proved the possibility of amine life!

"Professor, where were these substances found?"

Mao Zhengzhi asked, "I mean, in what region of the liquid ammonia ocean were they found?"

Lü Yongchang pointed at the enormous Holographic Projection in the distance. "263.1 km below the surface, at roughly 23,344 standard atmospheres."

"What the fuck?" Mao Zhengzhi visibly froze at those words.

Those figures were simply terrifying for humans-or any carbon-based life on Earth!

But Mao Zhengzhi soon recovered and began to think.

He muttered to himself.

He spoke without any particular intent, but his listener took the words to heart.

Lü Yongchang's expression changed abruptly, and he whipped his head toward the enormous
