Solomon raised his eyebrows slightly at those words, silently approving.
As expected of a leading genetics expert, his insight and speed of thought far surpassed those of ordinary people. He had discovered so much in mere moments.
Through Blood Manipulation, he had already sensed that the Compound V inside Hirna had not only integrated perfectly but had completely merged with her X-Gene, with no possibility of rejection or separation whatsoever.
The underlying principle of Compound V was to reshape human genes, awaken dormant gene fragments, and turn incomplete gene sequences into complete ones.
In the world of the X-Men, it would precisely target the X-Gene loci within the human body. If the X-Gene was incomplete or dormant, it would directly repair and activate it, transforming it into a complete state.
For a dominant X-Gene like Hirna's, which had already fully formed and achieved stable expression, it would merge with it, amplify it, and strengthen it.
Solomon's thoughts raced, and a bold hypothesis surfaced in his mind.
By that logic, every mutant injected with the serum would experience an enhancement. Compound V was far more compatible with mutants than with ordinary humans.
What he lacked most at present was a vast amount of experimental data to fully verify this hypothesis.
Once the hypothesis was fully confirmed, it would mean that Compound V's success rate in enhancing mutants reached a hundred percent.
In the world of The Boys, the main reason Compound V's mortality rate remained so high was that it forcibly rewrote ordinary people's existing gene sequences. Their bodies could not withstand such radical genetic restructuring, ultimately suffering total breakdown and dying of organ failure.
But mutants already possessed mature X-Genes. The serum did not need to forcibly alter their genes, only merge with and strengthen them, so fatal rejection and
