Chapter 426 Leaving Genes



Even with technology as advanced as the Great Wall of God, it is impossible to cross a distance of three light-years in half an hour without relying on teleportation.

If the destination is the main ship, then that's a different story.

Once the tracking program is activated, catching up with a spaceship that has been transferred to the main ship is only a matter of time.

This is an arms race.

“But it will take time, half an hour, no, to be precise, twenty-five minutes is a stretch.” Taina simulated the result using her personal terminal.

"How much of a stretch is 'barely'?" Li Changzhou asked.

"When the time comes, we will be able to see the light from the other side's thrusters."

Li Changzhou looked at the person in charge: "What long-range attack systems is this ship equipped with?"

The person in charge is debugging the tracking system.

The holographic screen was completely dark; as the image zoomed in, a glimmer of light appeared.

The image zooms in further, revealing the Protoss transport ship that stole the incubation chamber from Sako.

When the life ring's tracking system turned its gaze over, all the external sensors on the transport ship instinctively bent over like fish scales.

It's meaningless.

If the sensor system is not activated, the transport ship cannot avoid dangers during navigation, but that is not important. What is important is that without the sensor system, it cannot be docked by the main ship.

The fish scales opened, and the patiently waiting tracking system immediately snapped into one of the scales.

The powerful pulling force, like the pull of an air force pilot who has been fishing for a week and finally caught a fish, caused the Life Ring spaceship to accelerate instantly!

Even life-saving spaceships that prioritize safety generate powerful gravity.

The person in charge then began adjusting the gravity, temperature, and humidity of the incubation chamber before answering the general's question:

"The purpose of this ship is survival. It is small and equipped with a warp system. The remaining space is all incubation chambers."

“Most of us sleep in bunk beds,” the guard added.

She leaned against the wall, her arms crossed over her chest, making her legs appear long and slender. She seemed relaxed, yet she remained wary of the four generals.

Do! Do! Do!

Li Changzhou tapped the armrest of the chair with a little force.

The handrail, strong enough to withstand high temperatures, low temperatures, and direct laser light, dented under his fingertips like putty.

Everyone awaited the general's orders.

The trembling sound disappeared.

"Activate warp in twenty minutes and get close to the enemy's flagship. We'll wait for them up ahead."

The person in charge turned around, leaning his pert buttocks against the control panel, and said in a very calm tone: "Do you know what the consequences would be if we rashly approached the enemy's flagship without knowing their personnel configuration?"

"Don't forget whose ship we're on now," Yao said with a light laugh. "Do you think we're still afraid of death?"

She looked at Li Changzhou: "There are still twenty-three minutes left. Whether we complete the mission or not, this may be the last period of our lives. Do you want to do something?"

The general laughed and stood up from his chair.

“I had forgotten that this was an incubation pod.”

The person in charge moved away from the control panel: "The blood from these infants combined isn't even enough to enhance your 'formula ring.' Don't touch them."

"Don't get excited, I only intend to tour the area." The general ordered his subordinates, "You stay here and make sure the spaceship's course remains unchanged."

"Xia, you stay too," the person in charge said.

“Lan…”

"If they dare to kill me, I will be destroyed along with this spaceship. This so-called genius will eventually become a laughing stock of the entire race."

Faced with the threat, the general laughed and said, "Come on then, we just happen to need a guide."

"I know how life is born, but having a life around me helps me understand it better," the princess said with a charming smile, welcoming the new life.

The person in charge led the general and the princess away from the bridge.

The incubation chamber is a general term, which is specifically divided into: gene bank, embryo room, and infant aquatic nursery.

The gene bank is like a test tube warehouse, with test tubes stacked like honeycombs, almost touching the ceiling, and conditions such as temperature are controlled by intelligent machines.

The gravity here is lower than normal, and the three of them float in mid-air, surrounded by a dense wall of test tubes.

"How are genes combined? Third-order with third-order, second-order with second-order, first-order with first-order?" the princess asked.

“Each life-ring spaceship has a different breeding route,” the person in charge said. “Matching superior genes with superior genes can reliably produce high-quality babies, but my ship is not like that.”

An extremely fine needle extends from the top, extracts a portion of the genes from the two test tubes, and then disappears back into the top.

"What is your method?" the general asked.

“Random,” the person in charge replied. “The downside is that it’s unstable, but the upside is that it can sometimes produce figures like generals.”

“I alone can take on the entire alien race.” After saying this, the general glanced at the princess, “except for Yao.”

The princess covered her face with her hands, making a shy gesture—all three of them were covered in armor, so they couldn't see each other's expressions.

"You should focus on surviving first," the person in charge said calmly.

Enter the embryo room.

The two thin needles that had disappeared earlier have reappeared here, and are synthesizing the two sets of genes into an embryo.

"Compared to naturally conceived offspring, embryos on the life ring can be adjusted in time, will not die young, and will not have physiological defects."

"Will this adjustment affect the emergence of geniuses?" Li Changzhou stared at the incubation tank.

It's hard to say whether some geniuses with physical defects became geniuses because of their defects.

These people may be naturally gifted, regardless of whether they have defects. However, having talent does not equate to being a genius. Defects can affect one's mind and experience, which is related to nurture. True geniuses cannot lack nurture.
