I Can Meet with Dead Scientists

Chapter 180 My Roommate Comes from 1000 Years Ago (Protective Chapter Do Not Subscribe)_2


At times, you can occasionally see some dead cockroach bodies, either at the head or the tail, seemingly hollowed out. Cockroaches are happy to eat the excrement of living cockroaches alongside the dead ones.

Cockroaches do indeed gnaw on similar corpses.

Cockroaches with the same eating behavior.

...are just like that.

The true effect of imidacloprid lies in the second category, though this situation may only attract a few cockroaches in the end.

Many cockroaches are drawn to the bait gel due to its scent, which can be perceived within a range of two meters, a perception area fully equipped with sensory awareness.

Its propagative principle comprises two types.

The main mechanism operates by disrupting pest neurological functions through chemical signaling, with imidacloprid acting as a nicotine-acetylcholine receptor agonist used in biological poisons, targeting pest control from an ecological standpoint.

Yun Xu quickly sketched this picture, recollecting the operations of the platform.

....Oh dear.

....A pit so deep that a singular person cannot see the end, with billions of cockroaches crawling within, sinking into external nothingness upon being overwhelmed.

Suddenly, Yun Xu's mind flashed to a scene once imagined long ago: cockroaches filling the inside wall of a cultivation chamber.

A large pitch-black vessel, crammed with a hundred and fifty cockroaches. It was the first full-sized experimental test conducted by Yun Xu and others, pondering over the accidental nature of the experiment. The male cockroaches ferociously chewing the head of another.

...afterward, all signs of life disappeared, mirroring the overwhelmingly superior female American cockroach.

The male cockroaches showed no human-like movement initiation, a circumstance peculiar to a few earlier generations.

During a span of twelve minutes, the male cockroaches gradually gathered around the singular female American cockroach, seemingly excited, with vigorous sexual attraction.

Significant quantities of pheromones began to diffuse, neurological receptors on peripheral scent-sensing neurons reacted to the influx of chemical cues now deeply embedding in the white egg-like structure of pheromone rings.

...is even more critical.

A giant cockroach suddenly flipped over and futilely surged upward into thin air after numerous minutes.

Yet it seemed futile.

Nonetheless, its climbing speed was remarkable, revealing an evident neurological problem, although it quickly resumed position.

Towards the container's bottom, supporting one leg, it wobbled, failing to even stand against the container wall, as twelve minutes elapsed again.

Observably excited, it extended its wings as far as possible, rapidly tapping its antennae against the container wall. This American cockroach measuring approximately four centimeters was significant.

Yun Xu hurriedly moved forward, following the assistant pointing to eternity.

"Look at box 2 quickly, there's a reaction on this cockroach," urged the supervisor, Yun Xu nodded.

"63 seconds, 62 minutes in standard discharge mode for Box 1, used as iteration four for Round Five in Box 3, iteration four Box 2, Box 5 and Box 6 being single iterations."

"How long has the time elapsed?" questioned Zhou Xiao.

At seeing Yun Xu's expectation directed towards Yao Pei Zhou, Zhou asked.

Before long, cockroaches accumulated directly on the bait gel in Box 6, progressing a few minutes forward again.

The result was vastly different from mixing physical properties with chemistry, although it contained the same pheromonal components.

Absolutely clear.

Only when a cockroach in Box 4 started moving into the contained drill were they persistently continuous in Round Three.

Sequentially, a new set of recruits subsequently moved in, as early cockroaches retreating after consuming the bait gel, while in Container 2.

Another cockroach remained inactive within containers 6-4, staying static at the same time.

The pyrethroids mixed with imidacloprid soon began to emit a chemical combination, gradually attracting three to four head cockroaches towards the bait gel, quickly initiating feeding.

Then another mere dozen seconds passed.

These cockroaches, after several dozen seconds, promptly recovered normalcy, but they were initially set into a flurry, small quakes triggering as they bumped against the bottom container, within lies small bait gel dishes.

A remarkably lively cockroach incessantly running back and forth, displaying its wings faintly spread and hairy legs vividly visible, as it climbed up the inner walls and bottom of the container, seemingly without the hindrance of an enclosure, as noted from Kaka Luoluo.

The inspection commenced primarily with Container No. 2, noted for its grid spacing of 03x54x02, a regular linear configuration, with a small quantity of drinking water placed inside.

Monitoring effects began with Yun Xu and others raising cameras to record observations, placing small dishes inside the base of the container through the adjusting mechanism.

Containers 1-3 received imidacloprid bait gels, then numbers 4-6 to follow sequentially.

The bait gel comparable to translucent milk jellies, roughly the size of rice grains.

As part of the experiment, Yefeng's national output insecticide, Lin Xiaohongni's formulation of Ling insecticide, Baibai's applicator tool had three other small dishes.

Yun Xu prepared everything, squeezing a single drop of imidacloprid paste on each of three small dishes, taking a drip dispenser.

The sole goal of Yun Xu was not particularly exaggerated, as if it had been marked.

As Baibai generally couldn't be killed over an area larger than 100 square meters, its lethal capability can be effectively measured in small spaces of 30 square meters.
