Early in the morning.
When the first ray of sunlight shone on Jiang Zi’s face, Jiang Zi opened his eyes.
Today is Jiang Zi’s first day at the Central Military Academy, and Marshal Almu is taking him to the Awakening Stage.
Students at the Central Military Academy must awaken their genes as early as twenty years old. Some families will also apply for gene awakening in advance. Children who start early can awaken their genes at the age of fifteen.
Jiang Zi stood up and rubbed his eyes, and Xiao Ai came over and handed him oral cleanser and warm towel capsules. Jiang Zi washed his face. He was used to this kind of lifestyle in the research institute, but Jiang Zi missed the way ancient humans washed themselves.
After simply drinking a tomato-flavored nutritional supplement, Jiang Zi’s optical brain popped up the Marshal’s virtual call request. Jiang Zi swiped his hand and clicked to agree.
The virtual image of the marshal appeared in front of his eyes: “Jiang Zi, good morning.”
“Good morning, Marshal Almu.”
“I’m going to awaken my genes today. How are you? Are you nervous?” The marshal’s tone was as gentle as ever.
“Fortunately, it’s impossible to say I’m not nervous. I still don’t know if I can awaken the gene.” Jiang Zi was a little worried.
Jiang Zi’s words more or less reached Jiang Zi’s ears when he reported in yesterday. As a newly thawed ancient human, he was released from the research institute for observation after a month.
During this month, Jiang Ziye supplemented his interstellar knowledge.
It is now star calendar year 3023, and humans have long since left the earth. In the long journey of star navigation, it is a pity that no living beings other than the earth have been found. In order to adapt to the cruel interstellar voyage, people spliced their genes with animals, plants, etc. Over the long history, variants with longer lifespans and the ability to withstand various severe natural disasters have been screened out.
Together they built their current home. This is the current Federation, and in this era, all the people are soldiers.
At the same time, failed mutations were also born during the genetic screening process. They lost almost all their humanity and turned into monsters without reason and only instinct. They were driven out of the Federation by the army.
Human beings who tamper with genes will eventually reap the consequences. After thousands of years of peace, side effects follow one after another.
People discovered that as genes were recombined from generation to generation and more practical and powerful abilities emerged, people’s lifespan began to gradually decrease, and genetic riots occurred in younger and younger people. Academia Sinica has so far been unable to find a way to break the situation, and more and more people have turned into “monsters” and been exiled on distant planets.
The only “healthy” gene in Jiang’s body was regarded by the institute as an important part of the “salvation” plan.
Some people believe that the precious primitive genes of this skinny young man from the ancient era of multi-racial single-planet mixing can be the key to breaking the situation; some others sneer, thinking that this primitive and backward gene may not even be able to awaken supernatural powers, let alone If you want to survive in the cruel interstellar world, you can only stay in the isolation zone of the planet for the rest of your life – because this human being can’t even walk in space!
“If it weren’t for the famous brain evolvers from all over the galaxy who helped him evolve his brain and organs during the thawing process, he wouldn’t even be able to understand the interstellar language!” A young man with a flower on his head cursed.
“This rare species should be put on display in an isolation warehouse instead of expecting this ancient human to save interstellar people! So what if it’s our ancestor? Have you ever seen a single-celled organism resurrected to save human beings? He might have some with us. Reproductive isolation!” A certain officer with a pair of tiger ears on his head smashed the corner of the table, his face red from the argument.
“There are more and more cases of mental riots in the Federation. The sooner we find a way to relieve the situation, the better. Why not try to integrate him into society first and observe and observe. Maybe there will be unexpected gains.” A certain Bai Dagua young man analyzed calmly.
“Yes, yes, I’m also very curious about what it would be like for ancient humans to live with us.”
Jiang Zi, watching these people arguing in front of him, said: … pitiful, weak and helpless.
Finally, the decision was made to let Jiang Zi try to awaken the gene first, and then devote himself to social observation for a period of time.
And today is the day when Jiang Zi awakens his genes.
After all, Jiang Zi actually didn’t have high expectations.
Just kidding, I am a pure human being who has not undergone any genetic modification. I guess the genetically enhanced awakening can at most strengthen my physique!
But he was also worried. If he really couldn’t awaken his genes, he wouldn’t have to rely on subsistence allowances for the rest of his life.
Jiang Zi said goodbye to Marshal Almu’s virtual form, put on the school uniform prepared by Xiao Ai, and went to the school’s awakening stage. .
Just walking out of the suspended cabin in the dormitory building, warm sunlight shone on his face. Jiang Zi squinted his eyes and looked at the artificial sun vaguely visible in the sky, feeling once again the wonder of technological progress.
If you have the chance, you must visit other planets. I heard from Marshal Almu that the planets outside have been transformed by humans with their own characteristics, and many of them are famous vacation spots in the interstellar world.
A group of young people wearing silver and black school uniforms with blue coats of arms on their shoulders met Jiang Zi in front of the dormitory building.
The blond curly-haired young man opposite looked down at the black coat of arms on Jiang Zi’s shoulder. He was stunned for a moment, then looked at Jiang Zi in shock: “You… you are the transfer student!”
The person beside the curly-haired young man When several young people heard this, they all looked at Jiang Zi opposite.
Jiang Zi: …
Is he so famous now?
The people in the legion were afraid that he, the only ancient human in the interstellar world, would attract unnecessary attention, so they did not make his affairs public. They only gave him a place as a transfer student at the Central Military Academy, but it seemed that he did not keep a low profile
… The young man seemed to realize something and quickly moved out of the way of the door. Jiang Zi nodded to the curly-haired young man in response. On the surface, he was calm and calm, and walked over without being surprised, ignoring the whispers coming from behind him.
Jiang Zi suppressed his complicated feelings. He knew that the Central Military Academy’s admissions process was strict, and his place in the transfer class was really eye-catching.
Jiang Zi guiltily glanced at the black coat of arms on his shoulder. This black coat of arms was definitely eye-catching among the crowd surrounded by blue, orange, etc. It was almost telling others: Look, look. , this is the newly admitted Central Military Academy rare transfer student in a century…
Following the route on the optical brain, Jiang Zi finally arrived at today’s destination – the Awakening Building of the Central Military Academy.
