Project: 14 (9.1.28) Research Team C has failed to determine a way to reverse the Daodan implantation if the Host develops in an unwanted direction. There are two key reasons for this: 1) The Daodan technique subjects select cells to a hyper-evolutionary process before replanting them in the donor's body. The Daodan 'clone' grows inside the body of the donor, replacing the host's organs with its own hyper-evolved biomass. |
Subject: Chrysalis Removal - Prime Daodan Symbiote 1B(h) [cont] 2) Professor Hasegawa's theory was that the Daodan Chrysalis would replace damaged or weakened biological systems in the host body as required, enabling humans to survive what he saw was an impending collapse of the Earth's biosphere. This leads to the first difficulty. Namely that the host organism's original organs are 'devoured' and replaced by those of the Chrysalis. The second difficulty arises from the nature of the Chrysalis itself: the organism possesses an unearthly ability to adapt to adverse stimuli. |
Subject: Chrysalis Removal - Prime Daodan Symbiote 1B(h) [cont] Attempts to perform invasive or exploratory surgery are met with near instantaneous mutation in the host organism, repairing skin and organ damage almost as it happens. If we can communicate with the Chrysalis directly it may be possible to directly influence its physical development. It is possible to overload the recuperative capacity of the Chrysalis, but doing so would prove fatal to the host body. |
Subject: Chrysalis Removal - Prime Daodan Symbiote 1B(h) [cont] We do hold out hope that an alternative treatment method may exist. If we think of the mutated cells as a cancer we could theoretically attack the Chrysalis with the implantation of a second cell cluster modified to destroy the Chrysalis cells and possibly reverse the mutation they caused. How the Daodan Chrysalis might respond to this threat to its existence, and what effect such a treatment might have on the host body remains unknown. |
