Chapter 2 Outside of the Earth

The year 2137 is an era of high technological development. Compared with the 21st century, the most important changes in the whole world have two aspects.

The first aspect is the genetic technology that human beings discovered and started to study in the early 19th century, and there have been several major breakthroughs since the middle of the 21st century.

And each breakthrough brings enormous benefits to humanity. Genetic diseases are basically eliminated. Dementia is greatly reduced! The terminal diseases that threaten human life have dropped sharply from more than 400 in the 21st century to 26 in the 22nd century, um, provided you have money. Such as the basic quality of the human body. The basic qualities of human beings, such as speed, strength, and lifespan, that are improved only through reproductive inheritance are more than ten percent in the order of ordinary people. Not to mention that the improvement after taking various genetic medicines is even more amazing.

The second aspect is that the space exploration that countries are keen on has also yielded results.

Nearly a hundred years ago, the countries of the United States, the European Union, the Russian Union, and the Huaya District announced that they had found extraterrestrial intelligent life and made contact with extraterrestrial intelligent life, and tried to communicate to a certain extent. The consequence of the exchange is that the individual technical problems that have plagued human beings have achieved breakthrough breakthroughs, but the invasion of extraterrestrial intelligent life has also come. Of course aggression. Fortunately, there is no shortage of vigilant and wise men among humans. The invasion of extraterrestrial intelligent life is blocked from the earth, but it is not over. The Blue Star Alliance was thus established, and the era of human genes was officially opened in 2037.

And the genetic examination was born under this premise. Humans who have been improved by genetic medicine will be greatly improved in all aspects, even qualitative changes. Gene warriors in extraterrestrial battlefields shine. Many times, a powerful gene warrior can decide the outcome of a battle and change the direction of a battle. Humans who have been improved by genetic medicine are better at research and faster at special production. Even the driver, whether it is a fighter plane or a spaceship, will have a higher and faster driving level, and bear a greater driving intensity.

The Gene Era is coming.

After nearly a hundred years of research and continuous adjustment, human beings have a deeper understanding of their own exploration and the integration of genetic medicine. Only then did Xu Tui now face the genetic test. As the old class said, the college entrance examination score is just an admission ticket, and it is more of a squeeze on the students' motivation and potential. Hard work and hard work will make your genes better.

After the college entrance examination, students who pass the genetic admission line will receive a D-level or C-level gene compound chain allele medicine, which is the scientific name. The common name is also called gene liberation agent.

According to Xu Tui's current official knowledge, the explanation is that the human genome has a natural stable chain with a large degree of stability. Strengthening, mutation and evolution all require a lot of time to slowly evolve. However, the gene compound chain allele drug can relieve this stability under the premise of safety, and then through various methods to strengthen, mutate and even evolve existing genes in a short time. Humans who take this gene compound chain allele drug are called gene liberators.

It is worth mentioning that the level of the gene compound chain allelic drug, that is, the gene liberation drug level, varies from E-level to A-level, and the difference in efficacy is also huge. Grade E is the worst, Grade A is the best. However, A-level and B-level gene liberation agents are very rare. It is said that only the military and genetic research institutes have channels, and the management is very strict. The most circulating drugs on the market are E-level gene liberation agents, and D-level and C-level gene liberation drugs are also in circulation. But the price is very beautiful.

There are two differences between the E-level, D-level, and C-level gene liberation agents. One is the genome collapse rate. The second is the base point of gene liberation. Taking the E-level gene liberation agent, the human genome has a 5 in 1,000 chance of collapse. The consequence of the genome collapse is death on the spot, and any rescue means are useless! The genome collapse rate of the D-level gene liberation agent is 2 in 1,000, while the C-level is 1 in 1,000! Among the E to A class agents, the C class gene liberation agent has the lowest mortality rate.

This is a bit like gambling, the chances are not too big, as long as the luck is not too bad, you can become a gene liberator. But the second gap is not something that luck can make up for. It's a gap that can't be bridged for almost a lifetime.

． . . . . .

In the setting sun, Xu Huihui glanced at Jincheng No. 9 Middle School, which most students called purgatory, and squeezed into the maglev bus home. Thanks to the improvement of science and technology, maglev technology, which was expensive and extremely limited a hundred years ago, has developed rapidly, and now it has become a powerful tool to make the city no longer congested. More than half an hour later, Xu Tui heard a sound at the door as soon as he got out of the elevator.

The voices of Aunt Ma and father Xu Jianguo downstairs. "Hey, old Xu, how many scores did your child get in the college entrance examination? My child didn't do well in the exam, but he passed the genetic admissions line." Father Xu Jianguo was still very modest, and Xu Tui heard this voice as soon as he arrived at the door. "Don't mention it, my child didn't do well in the test." Xu Jianguo replied. "I didn't pass the test? How many points did I get?" Aunt Ma asked. "It doesn't work anyway." Dad shook his head and was about to close the door. Aunt Ma was in a hurry, grabbed the door and asked, "You have to get a score if you don't pass the test. How many points?"

"Jinbu has come back." Xu Tui's father saw Xu Tui and greeted him. Well, Jinbu is Xu Tui's nickname.

"Hey, Jinbu has come back?" Aunt Ma hurriedly stretched out her hand to Xu Tui, "Your father said you couldn't pass the test, how many marks did you get in the test? Could it be that you didn't pass the genetic admissions line? That kid in my family is in danger. Fortunately, it has passed the genetic admission line?"

Xu retreated to avoid it, but did not open up for the time being, and looked at Dad. According to my father, neighbor relationships are also very important. A hand suddenly stretched out from the crack of the door, directly twisting Xu Tui's ear and pulling it into the room, scolding as he pulled. "You stinky boy, you only got 604 points in the test, and you almost won't pass the double-excellent line. How do I usually teach you your mother?"

"Mom, it hurts, take it easy." As Xu Tui was pulled back into the room by his mother, Aunt Ma downstairs froze for a moment, stunned on the spot.

"Uh, goodbye Sister Ma, I'll cook first." Dad smiled awkwardly and closed the door.

Outside the door, Aunt Ma was stunned and sighed lightly, "Hmph, isn't it just over the double-excellent line, what are you showing off?"

In the door, the old lady stared at the father with her hands on her hips, "I do everything I want to give people some face. The score for my family's Jinbu is from the serious examinations, not from cheating. There is nothing I dare not say."

"Isn't this afraid that her face will not look good?" Xu Tui's father replied leisurely,

Xu Tui's mother immediately covered her face and said, "She doesn't look good on her face, so your face will be."

"Mom, I'm going to take a bath first!" Seeing that the daily nagging battle was about to start again, Xu Tui hurriedly took a bath to avoid harm to Chiyu.

"There are dishes in the pot, I'll go see the dishes!" The tried-and-tested father also chose to cook for the first time.

For dinner, there is only a plate of braised pork, a plate of oily green fried lettuce, and a large bowl of hot oil poured over the oily noodles with a strong fragrance. Three boiled eggs were placed in Xu Tui's bowl, and they were dipped in a little red chili peppers with oily noodles, which made Xu Tui salivate. That was for Xu Tui to supplement his physical energy consumption.

"Let's eat."

Snoring for a while, Xu Tui wiped the corners of his oily mouth and touched his stomach contentedly. "Dad, this is the accident liability agreement to be used when taking the gene liberation medicine tomorrow, as well as the accident insurance policy. You have to sign it, put your fingerprints on it, and hand it in tomorrow." Xu Tui took out a piece of paper.

Dad didn't read the content, just glanced at his mother Zhang Xiuli, who had the same solemn expression, and then looked at Xu Tui.  "Jinbu, you have crossed the double-excellence line, but tomorrow's gene liberation medicine still has a one-thousandth mortality rate. In fact, the mortality rate is a little bigger than this. Are you afraid?"

Xu Tui nodded first, then shook his head.

"There were 230,000 students in our Jinchengfu who took gene liberation drugs online last year, and more than 400 people had their genomes collapsed on the spot during the process. Everyone felt that the bad luck would not fall on their heads, but when bad luck came, it was too late. Jinbu, if you are afraid, don't want to, or have some fears, just say it. I can refuse to sign this accidental liability agreement. Although future development will be limited, our family of three will not have food and clothing. Any questions." While speaking, father Xu Jianguo pushed the accident liability agreement that Xu Tui handed over to Xu Tui again, and he didn't even look at the insurance policy.

"Jinbu, your future, you decide!" Although the status of the father's family fluctuated, but when it came to serious business, mother Zhang Xiuli was very quiet and never interrupted.

Xu Tui looked at the accident responsibility agreement in front of him, and suddenly looked out the window. "Dad, it was said on TV that extraterrestrial intelligent life has been invading for almost a hundred years. I want to go and see what they look like?" Taking a deep breath, Xu Tui, who had made a decision, pushed back the accidental liability agreement. In front of my father Xu Jianguo. "Dad, if there is a chance, outside the earth, I want to go and see!"

Mother Zhang Xiuli curled her lips, her eyes full of worry. The death rate of 1 in 1,000 does not seem to be high, but when it is the turn of the individual, it is 100% dead. As a parent, how can you not worry about it. Father Xu Jianguo glanced at his wife, then at his son Xu Tui, picked up the pen, and swiped his name on the consent form for accident liability.

Dad stood up suddenly, and solemnly handed the confirmation of accident responsibility to Xu Tui with both hands. "Xu Tui, from today onwards, your future is up to you. But you must always remember one thing. In the eyes of your parents, as long as you are safe and healthy, that is the best!" Xu He nodded vigorously. Mother Zhang Xiuli cried without saying a word.

Xu Tui hurriedly comforted his mother, "Mom, don't worry, I got on the double-excellent line, and I used not only a C-level gene liberation potion with a lower mortality rate but also a bottle of gene activation stabilization potion that can reduce the mortality rate by half! My death rate maybe 0.5 per thousand."

"Are you so comforting?" Father Xu Jianguo stared at his wife who was crying even more.

"Just like you, I'm really worried about whether you can find a girlfriend in the future! Can you let us hold our grandson?" Dad has a lot of experience in this kind of situation.

As soon as the topic-changing Dafa was used, mother Zhang Xiuli immediately stopped crying and started planning for Xu Tui's future. "Now encourage fertility, Jinbu, and before you graduate, be sure to let us have grandchildren."

Xu retreated and fled, "Mom, we tripled our training volume today, I'm very tired, I'll rest earlier."

"This child" mother Zhang Xiuli was a little unwilling to do so.

"Don't forget the evening class." Father Xu Jianguo reminded.

"I'm used to it, Dad!" Back in his small room, Xu Tui brushed his teeth, and flipped through the friends' updates on his personal communicator for a few minutes, almost all of which were the mood dynamics of his classmates.

As soon as five minutes arrived, Xu Tui turned off the personal communicator. As a high school student, managing your time is very important. Afterwards, Xu Tui took off his shoes and went to bed, sat down with his knees crossed, his eyes closed slightly, he began to breathe in and out, and his whole body relaxed, and within a few minutes, he entered a state of ethereal meditation. This is the evening meditation class that his father Xu Jianguo taught Xu Tui when he was a child and made Xu Tui stick to it all the time. The main reason why Xu Tui was able to persevere was that this meditation could make him relax quickly and fall asleep quickly.

Especially when Xu Tui was a child, he couldn't sleep because of the excitement of watching hot-blooded anime, or he couldn't sleep all night after watching horror movies, until he fell asleep until dawn, but then it was time for school again. For any child, the pain is simply sour.

This evening meditation class allows Xu Tui to let go of his mind in a very short period of time and enter a night of deep sleep. And no matter how tired you were the night before, you'll be full of energy the next day! Half an hour later, Xu Tui, who was meditating, leaned slightly and fell asleep on the bed, his legs still sitting cross-legged.

After a while, the door opened gently, and mother Zhang Xiuli came to Xu Tui's bed, covered Xu Tui with a quilt, stared at Xu Tui for a while, and then left gently.
