Awu lowered his little golden lion head and said, "Awu doesn't know where she is. Sister, can you let Awu stay with you? Awu will be very good."
Xia Chujian thought that since Awu could speak so eloquently right after being "hatched" from the giant egg, his origin must not be as simple as an ordinary human or a strange beast.
At this time, Qi Lu was speaking again in Xia Chujian's fully enclosed helmet.
Its childish voice carried a hint of confusion: "Master, Qilu discovered that this golden giant egg fragment doesn't seem to be that simple."
"Qilu originally thought it was just fragments, but there's something else hidden inside!"
Xia Chujian was also very curious: "...What is it?"
Qi Lu said, "There's an instrument in here, and it's called a gene incubator."
Xia Chujian's head was full of question marks: "...What is it?"
She understood the words as they sounded, but not when they were put together.
Xia Chujian was puzzled: "Gene incubator? What is this?"
Qilu said, "Qilu's database records that many years ago, a scientist had this idea."
"It's about building an instrument. If you put a gene chain into it, you can replicate an identical organism."
"The scientist named this hypothetical instrument the Gene Incubator."
"He also envisioned that this genetic incubator could also provide simple prenatal education for the incubated organisms."
'This way, when the life form hatches, it will immediately have a certain level of communication skills and will not be illiterate.'
Xia Chujian suddenly realized: "So this Awu was hatched by this gene incubator!"
"It has received a certain degree of education in there, so it can speak as soon as it comes out?"
Qi Lu said: "That should be it!"
Xia Chujian was greatly surprised: "Is this possible?! But doesn't the Beichen Empire prohibit genetic research?"
"Who is so capable as to create a new organism from nothing using only genetic chains?"
Qilu seemed to hesitate for a moment before whispering, "...Qilu doesn't understand either. This is a contradiction in Qilu's logical reasoning."
"Because after this scientist proposed this idea, he was captured and executed by the Emperor of the Beichen Empire."
"This kind of gene incubator has always been just a concept in history and has never become a reality."
Xia Chujian understood.
She said: "Qi Lu believes that the scientist who originally proposed the idea was killed before he could actually carry it out."
"The Beichen Empire doesn't have such advanced genetic technology, so this kind of genetic incubator shouldn't exist."
"But Awu appeared before us alive again, which means that someone must have built this instrument based on that idea."
"So I don't think this is contradictory. There must be someone who possesses such advanced genetic technology."
"But this person is either not from the Beichen Empire. Or, he has been hiding his identity and secretly conducting genetic research."
"As long as people don't know about it, isn't it the same as not having this technology?"
Xia Chujian argued confidently.
Qi Lu was silent for a moment, then reluctantly agreed, saying, "Master, you're right! This eliminates the contradiction!"
Xia Chujian didn't dwell on the trivial matter.
Anyway, it is meaningless for a physics idiot like her to explore who created it and how it was created.
She just stared at the golden giant egg fragment in amazement and said, "Qilu, is this gene incubator still usable?"
Qilu said, "No. When Awu hatched, all the energy here was used up."
"The equipment inside has self-destructed."
Xia Chujian gasped: "Why would the device self-destruct?"
Qi Lu said, "This kind of very high-end equipment usually has a self-destruct program."
"If it's not opened normally, the device will initiate a self-destruct sequence."
Xia Chujian sighed regretfully and said, "Can it be repaired? Can we still use it?"
Qilu seemed to fiddle with it a few more times and said, "Master, wait a moment, Qilu will try it."
After a while, Qilu seemed to be connected to the gene incubator in the golden giant egg fragment.
Xia Chujian suppressed his curiosity and waited for about a minute.
Qi Lu's childish voice rang out in a cute voice: "Master! It turns out there's a piece of information stored in this gene incubator!"
"It is said that scientists discovered a genetic chain of an ancient exotic beast during archaeological excavations."
"So we created this gene incubator and put the gene chain in it, hoping to hatch the ancient beast."
"But due to lack of energy and tight funding, the laboratory eventually cut the project."
"A scientist secretly stole a gene incubator and exiled it into space, hoping that one day this experiment would produce satisfactory results."
Xia Chujian blinked and asked, "Didn't you say that the scientist who came up with the idea has been killed?"
"...Then who are these scientists? Which laboratory is it from? Is it from the Beichen Empire?"
Qi Lu stammered, "...This, this, Qi Lu doesn't know either. These are not recorded in Qi Lu's database."
Xia Chujian sighed with regret and made up her mind. If it wasn't for the Beichen Empire's laboratory, she would have "kept" this little Awu...
If it was the laboratory of the Beichen Empire, she would give little Awu to Su Buyan.
