"What? What did you say?"
Yunxi's eyelids jumped, and she immediately laughed, "What are you kidding? It's not funny at all! You don't know anything about my people! They are the most powerful, hard-working, and most Wisdom! There are so many ethnic forests standing on the mother planet, but my clan is definitely the best among them. Even if the interstellar age is over, my clan will not go extinct! I will never believe it!"
Absinthe sighed, "Why be persistent?"
Alice also looked at her in embarrassment, and carefully helped Yunxi build the stall, fearing that she would catch a cold. Her tone became softer, trying to ease Yunxi's shock,
"The interstellar era is completely different from the world you know. In your era, the smallest unit of society was the 'family', right?"
Yunxi gasped and stared at Alice.
"But the interstellar era is different. Except for some big families, most interstellar people are independent individuals. When they are adults, they are alone and lead an adventurous and independent life. Except for some civic tasks that must be undertaken, others are free. , and do not have to provide support to parents."
Absinthe said simply and directly, "It's all because of genetic technology. In common words you can understand - if there is a chance, make your offspring stronger and wiser. , more power, do you do it?"
This, of course, goes without saying.
When a woman in the mother star era finds out that she is pregnant, she has to undergo Down's screening and B-ultrasound. If you find that your child has congenital problems, get rid of it as soon as possible. This is not cruelty, but not wanting children to come into this world to suffer.
Probably the hearts of parents all over the world are similar in that they want their sons to become dragons and their daughters to become phoenixes.
"As soon as human beings immigrated to the interstellar space, they found that they had encountered a powerful enemy: the Zerg. At that time, 50% of the population died from the invasion of the Zerg. In order to protect themselves and improve the quality of human beings, scientists vigorously developed genetic technology. And In the beginning, genetic technology helped mankind overcome many difficulties, and a lot of strong people emerged."
"But with too many gene replacements, the family-centered social system collapsed. After all, when a person finds out that his children have inherited less than 20% of his genes, more than eight CDs belong to others. Check it out, the kinship is not as good as the distant relatives, the love of the child is enthusiastic, and it is almost worn out."
People, all have selfish nature. Even if you have many shortcomings, your own children are biological, tolerant and considerate. Other people's children, no matter how good, have anything to do with themselves?
Simply put, this forms a paradox.
Everyone wants the descendants to grow stronger and stronger to adapt to the vagaries of the interstellar age. But after using the genes of outsiders, the offspring will not be their own offspring!
Genetic technology is a double-edged sword. In the early days, he helped humans resist the Zerg, and in the mid-term, the family system was disintegrated. It was finally stabilized through various policies, and people got used to it. Now, it has been discovered that genetic technology has led to the prevalence of genetic diseases...
"Your nation should not have been exterminated, but it has been replaced by genes one after another over a long period of time, and the national characteristics have long been lost, so Skynet has no It is included, and it does not recognize the existence of Han people."
"Even if there are still living people, you will not recognize them. Many people who have been genetically modified have changed their faces, and the ethnic genes flowing in their bodies are also pitiful. "Lin Tianer, don't be sad! Why don't you search among the frozen people, maybe you can find a few survivors!"
When Absinthe and Alice finished explaining patiently, Yunxi didn't speak for a long time. She has been silent, silent, her whole body trembled, as if she fell into a cliff of ten thousand feet and fell to pieces! Every cell is screaming, it hurts! In ancient times, the punishment was lingering, but it was nothing more than that.
"Host, you have to be strong!"
"Is this possible? Little yellow duck, do you think my clan will be gone? I am the only han clan alive? Because of genetic technology, they have all disappeared?"
"Hey, host, condolences and change. In fact, you also understand that every nation has inferior roots. Everyone also has a selfish nature. For you, when genetic technology develops to the point where you can modify your appearance, improve your IQ, and even increase your IQ. Can you refuse to obtain the ability through such and such means?"
Yunxi was silent, and suddenly the bottom of her eyes was sharp and stinging, her eyelids blinked, and Douda's tears rolled down, completely blurring the world.
"But my nation is one of the founders of the four major civilizations. It has survived five thousand years of wind and rain. How can it be lost in the interstellar age? I don't believe it, I don't believe it!"
" Host, think about those people who are addicted to plastic surgery. At first, they may not want to use knives on their faces countless times? I just thought that it would be perfect to open double eyelids. The lips are not full enough. After doing the toot lips, I suddenly realize that the time is too fast, it is time to do a face lift! Then it is hyaluronic acid, facelift... After a circle, is it still the original appearance?"
"You should think so. No matter what. How many gene replacements have they done, at least people have survived! Compared to the whole nation being eliminated because they couldn't adapt to the interstellar age, they just mixed other people's genes and became impure, what is it?" The
little yellow duck's consolation was: Effective, at least Yunxi doesn't feel heavy breathing, the road ahead is boundless, and life has no meaning.
"I used to... hope my clansmen could survive. In the last days, I worked hard to develop farms and planted a lot of products. I was like a groundhog, trying to accumulate food, and then cooperate with other supernatural forces, I distribute food to them, not only to the supernatural beings, but also to ordinary people. I always feel that the zombies will disappear sooner or later, or they will be able to return to the stable society of the past. If one more person survives, there will be more hope... "
Even if I'm dying, this belief has not disappeared."
"But I didn't expect that the zombies didn't destroy my nation. The interstellar era... Yes!"
Yunxi covered her cheeks with her hands, crying uncontrollably.
From today, her life has turned gray, and there is nothing to be happy about. An orphan, she will live, and only live.
...
Soan listened to the suggestion of the research institute and gathered all the frozen people in the hall. Forty elementary school students were also present, among them Harbang, the language genius, confidently said to the audience,
"In the past few days, I have studied German other than English, as well as some Latin characters. If there is enough time, I can learn all the languages of the mother planet, but unfortunately, there is not enough time left for me. There is not enough time outside, waiting for you frozen people to learn the common language."
"The IQ of frozen people..." He shook his head, then pointed at absinthe with a smile, "Fortunately, I have a companion to help me. It turns out that during the earliest interstellar days, many immigrant mother stars of various ethnic groups did not know the common language, so the founder of Skynet invented a kind of 'translation'. ', just say what you want to say to the translator, and the translator will automatically generate the common language. The reverse is also possible."
"Lord Suoan, I have contacted Absinthe's sister, and she is willing to help download the translator. It's just this The translator is relatively primitive, and there is only one corresponding language, which is not compatible with the second one. That is to say, with so many people present, it is possible that each person downloads differently. For convenience, I am afraid to start the 'chip implant' stage in advance ."
Suoan nodded, then looked at everyone, and at Yunxi, who was lonely and lonely in the crowd, as if she had abandoned her on the edge of the world, she just swept over it lightly, and nodded to the researchers, "If your body fits, start implanting."
The chip is the core device of Interstellar's "watch", which can automatically connect to the ubiquitous Skynet, and also has functions such as detecting physical conditions, alarming, communicating, and fighting enemies.
Interstellar society is a hierarchical society, and everyone's watch functions are not all the same. Because of their special origins, frozen people are classified as "level 2", second only to the families of members of Congress, and they are considered "key protected animals".
There is nothing to say about implantation. The researchers have done it countless times. After installation, it can be used with a little debugging.
Not to mention the reaction of the frozen person, Lilian is the most excited, she can communicate with No. 39, don't be afraid that the other party will not understand! She was so happy that she took a lot of small videos and uploaded them to Skynet.
Some people with good eyesight immediately noticed something unusual -
"Hey, what happened to Lin Tianer on the 14th?"
"Is she isolated?"
