Gene of Brilliant City 13 Division

Chapter 624 Prologue. Chapter Zero. CageⅩ

On the sea level, there is a huge black pothole. A cruise ship is docked on the periphery of this huge pothole. It is constantly impacted by the sea water. The cruise ship is stuck on the edge of this huge black pothole, which looks like a reef, but the surface is relatively Smooth black crystal edges.

The water flowed continuously across the edge of the pothole, erecting the top of the black spar like a city wall, and fell into the huge pothole whose depth was unknown.

Under the gray sky, the color of the sea water looked a bit abnormal, somewhat dark, and there were many charred fish and birds floating on the sea surface.

The black crater was left when the asteroid fell, and the huge amount of radiation released in just an instant wiped out all living things within hundreds of kilometers around it, but some people survived.

The cruise ship parked on the edge of the black spar is already dilapidated, with traces of burning in many places, and there are people who have turned into coke in many places. Only the captain lying on the deck is still alive. It was intact, except that there was a striking single hole on the chest, and the blood had stained the white shirt red.

There were black particles floating in the air. At this time, the captain suddenly opened his eyes. The blood was still oozing from the chest, and the blood began to flow back a little bit. The bullets slowly protruded from the chest. Under the package, it floated in the air little by little, and then the bullet was squashed little by little, and then shot towards the distant sea surface with a whoosh sound. In an instant, a scarlet trail appeared on the sea surface, as if the sea surface had been crushed. It was generally torn, and a cut mark appeared.

With a loud bang, the sea surface in the distance seemed to be hit by a huge air cannon in an instant, and a large piece of the sea surface was sunken. A huge wave rose up.

At this time, around the captain's body on the cruise ship, black particles began to rush into the captain's body crazily, and the captain suddenly opened his eyes.

call

Accompanied by a burst of violent panting, the captain got up in horror, pressed his chest, and touched his cheek.

"This is not hell!"

The captain's name is Joseph, and he is the captain of the Emerald. He has served as the captain for 15 years. Joseph seems to be in good spirits, as if he just woke up. His blue eyes looked a little puzzled. He stood up, Looking at the damaged Emerald and the scorched bodies on the deck, Joseph suddenly screamed in horror, then ran to the window, and vomited while pressing a broken ship rail.

However, no matter how he vomited, Joseph couldn't vomit anything. Soon Joseph calmed down. He didn't know where you were, but when he saw the huge pothole that couldn't be seen at a glance, and the sea water that was already flowing, Joseph knew that he was on the sea.

Joseph couldn't feel tired and hungry, this is where he felt the weirdest. According to his memory, Joseph remembered that the moment he saw a huge fireball falling from the sky, he lay on the deck, pointed the pistol at his heart, and pulled trigger.

At that moment, Joseph still remembered that he saw a strong light, a dazzling light that could cover everything, and Joseph also got relief. The pistol was something Joseph carried with him, and he knew that he would have to use this thing to release himself sooner or later. End your sinful life.

Soon Joseph saw the pistol that was melted together with the metal on the deck. It was the pistol he carried with him. Joseph stood up and walked over to check it. Looking at the charred bodies around him, Joseph also I don't feel uncomfortable anymore.

Soon Joseph returned to the cabin of the cruise ship. The entire cabin was in a mess. There was a disgusting rancid smell in the air, as well as a large number of stumps and broken arms. People who died tragically should have been killed in the hull. It was caused by a violent impact. Joseph suppressed his nausea and found a piece of cloth to cover his nose. He searched in the cabin. Joseph really wanted to find a watch, but unfortunately he couldn't find it no matter how hard he tried. .

Joseph wanted to know how long it had been, because many corpses that had not been charred had turned into mummies, and the food was the same, moldy and dry.

Joseph found a lot of broken watches, none of which were good, and soon Joseph searched the entire ship. It was certain that there was no one alive, only himself was alive. Joseph came to the deck and looked down. Looking at the sea in the distance, he looked sadly, and then he came to the captain's cabin, which was also a mess, many places were scorched black, and all the equipment was damaged.

Joseph still had a slight illusion before that he could drive this cruise ship away, but the power system was completely damaged. This cruise ship was impossible to drive, but there was a lifeboat that needed to be rowed with oars.

It's just that Joseph quickly got rid of such thoughts. If he floated on such a harsh sea, without water and food, Joseph would die within two or three days at most.

However, Joseph does not feel the cold, hunger and thirst, so Joseph seems to have a little hope. Joseph plans to experiment for a few days. He does not know what changes have taken place in his body. If he does not feel cold, hunger and If he was thirsty, Joseph planned to make a sailboat, rely on the lifeboat, and leave this place.

Joseph was still looking back on all of this, and the memories of the past kept coming out. Joseph pressed his forehead, as if he had experienced death, and everything Joseph did in the past became extremely clear now.

Joseph lost his parents since he was a child, and was brought up by his grandparents. However, Joseph, who lacked parental discipline since he was a child, made many bad friends and often caused trouble. Spent a decadent and depraved student days.

Later, because of a serious problem, Joseph was imprisoned. He was thrown into prison before he was an adult. After Joseph entered the prison, he was dishonest. He still made good friends with most of the criminals and even plotted in prison From some things, a group of people formed a gang as soon as they were released from prison.

Started a life of all kinds of crimes, Joseph and the gang members carried out a lot of crimes every day, but it all came to an abrupt end one day.

Because the seaport town where they are located often has ships passing by, and some ships often dock on the harbor, Joseph and the gang have the idea of ​​​​a ship. Violate some of the women above.

One night, Joseph and the gang touched a boat as usual, but this time they missed. When the gunshot rang out and one of the gang members was killed, Joseph was desperate at the time, and they were caught. Also discovered the secret of the ship.

The ship, which looked like a cruise ship, was actually a smuggling business, with everything from weapons to people. Joseph was very scared at the time, and he was pointed at gunpoint.

The rest of the gang were begging for mercy, but the other party fired anyway, and Joseph spoke up by accident, and followed them.

In the end, Joseph followed this group of people into a smuggling business. In order to survive, he did odd jobs to please these guys every day, and the captain at the time also saw that Joseph was a person who did such things, and he didn't have much mercy. , For some people who were kidnapped and smuggled, or even for some bad things, Joseph never showed an expression of intolerance or unacceptable, and sometimes he would even enjoy it.

Joseph was appreciated by the captain and became a member of them. After that, Joseph learned a lot, and he started to make money with this group of people. Joseph has always been ruthless when it comes to the goods on the ship.

Everything on the ship was just a commodity in the eyes of Joseph, and Joseph gradually showed his talent among this group of people. He was quick-witted and would always leave a way out for himself. For this reason, this group avoided many times. traced.

Even Joseph reached a secret deal with some people, and successfully cleaned himself up a little bit. After everything was cleared, Joseph directly connected with a person from an international investigation organization to help them arrest this group of people. Evil people exchanged conditions, and soon everything was as Joseph expected.

This group of people was arrested and sentenced to death in a country that still had the death penalty. Before the execution, Joseph went to see the captain. The captain just smiled wryly at the time, and said that he had expected it. One day Joseph would do this , because in Joseph, there is no pity and sympathy for the weak as a human being, nor does there exist such things as remorse.

Joseph, who has successfully laundered his name, established his own company in a certain country with huge funds, bought a cruise ship, and became the captain himself. The sea life for many years has made Joseph inseparable from the sea up.

It’s just that Joseph still started his old business. After that, he became more familiar with helping some dark forces carry out cargo delivery. On the surface, it was a luxury cruise ship, but in fact it was doing this kind of business behind the scenes. .

Joseph cultivated his own team and made a lot of money during these chaotic years. Joseph's life was full of sins, and he had been in contact with sins since he was sensible. important part.

At this moment, Joseph felt that this disaster might really be God's judgment on sinful human beings. The situation in the world has been very chaotic these years. The developed countries have almost monopolized everything, while the backward countries have been living for decades. In the torment, the world situation has basically formed a triangle of opposition.

At this moment, Joseph felt uncomfortable. He pressed his heart, but the next second, Joseph looked at his hand in a daze, then tore off his clothes, and continued to try several times. It was true that he had no heartbeat. Joseph was horrified. He yelled, but after a while Joseph came back to his senses and was able to think about breathing and moving around, but he had no heartbeat.

It's just that Joseph got used to it very quickly, he laughed instead, looking at the charred corpses on the deck, he couldn't help laughing.

"My luck is really good!"

As Joseph said, he turned and entered the cabin. He planned to make a sailboat by himself, float along the current, and one day be able to see land, as long as he still didn’t feel cold, hungry, or thirsty.

At this time, a wisp of smoke suddenly appeared on the sea surface, and the smoke slowly gathered, and soon turned into a black human figure with a pair of scarlet eyes staring at the cruise ship.

2076. 8, 11

8 o'clock in the morning

Accompanied by a burst of yelling, the door of a shop in a city opened, and many people came over, holding some things in their hands. The shop was a butcher shop, and there were a lot of kangaroo skins and chopping boards hanging in it. There are a lot of fresh kangaroo meat on the table.

The boss and a few people with guns around him calmed down the people who came to the store to buy kangaroo meat, and then lined up alone, hoping to exchange for some kangaroo skin or kangaroo meat with the things in their hands.

The boss carefully selected the exchange buyers, and soon allowed some exchange buyers to enter the store, and then a special person went to negotiate with them about the exchange.

Four months have passed since the catastrophe. This country located on the entire huge island has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Most people have fled to the central region, and the production capacity of food is decreasing day by day, because the sun always hides behind the clouds, only willing to give the land a little warmth, such a sun cannot feed crops.

Nowadays, a large number of people are raising and hunting kangaroos. There are already a large number of kangaroos living in this country. Although people used to have tolerance and a little sympathy for these animals, they only carried out some hunting in order to control the number of their groups. Killing, but now it is different. These meats that people were unwilling to eat in the past have become foods that people are craving for today.

Some people have already occupied the grasslands in the wild, directly using fluorescent lamps to make these weeds grow wildly, and then stocking kangaroos. The excellent reproductive ability of kangaroos has become the dream food for many people today.

It has always been raining recently, and the rain has also contributed to the crazy growth of some weeds. The kangaroos have begun to breed like ghosts. Humans keep kangaroos in captivity everywhere, and the growth cycle of kangaroos is also very fast.

Soon outside the shop, many people left in disappointment. Holding the things in their hands, they had no choice but to go to the next kangaroo redemption shop to look for opportunities. Put on a coat made of kangaroo fur.

Now that the climate is getting worse and the cold is invading most of the places, it is necessary to search enough things, and then build a sun field independently, which is what most people who are capable of keeping kangaroos in captivity intend to do.

Everything in this country has collapsed. The huge waves destroyed two-thirds of the coastal cities in an instant, and the sun that blocked the sky caused most of the crops in the farmland to wither and die. Coupled with the continuous release of radiation, Let a large number of people suffer from cancer, the country has no means to solve all this.

The chaos had lasted for nearly two months before it finally settled down. The boss casually picked up a stack of banknotes from a paper basket beside him, and then went into the toilet. A set of convincing solutions can come.

Although the country has already said that it is necessary to study genetic food and improve the genes of some crops so that they can survive in such a harsh environment and increase food production, but the boss knows that this is just a lie. There are rumors that the president has already fled , or in a secure facility.

All in all, this world has been abandoned. No one knows what the future will be like, but the only thing they know is that as long as they have food and drink, they can live.

After a while, the boss went to the toilet. When he came out, he saw a few people who bought kangaroo meat and kangaroo skin with useful things. After leaving, he closed the store door. The store door has been transformed into a metal door to prevent some attacks. , and the place behind the store is the pasture where kangaroos are raised. It is a very large area. The boss has more than 300 men in total, and they will patrol around the pasture 24 hours a day. Once they find anyone who enters the fence, they will shoot without hesitation.

Many people used to be the farmer's workers, neighbors, and some partners. When the disaster happened, the shrewd boss immediately realized what would happen next, so he gathered everyone together. Some of them Excellent soldier.

Now that the number of human beings is too large, only small-scale unity can survive. As for the life and death of other people, it has nothing to do with the boss, and the food is not enough to feed the existing population.

The boss will often drive an electric car out to discuss business with some nearby gangs. Although he doesn't want to admit it, the number of humans in this city is still as high as one million.

The boss also has a professional hunting team, who will go to the wild to catch some wild kangaroos and send them over directly, but the number of wild kangaroos is getting smaller and smaller nowadays.

Because people in the city will go hunting in the wild, and everything that can be eaten, whether it is animals or plants, will be brought back.

Recently, some people have starved to death. In desperation, some people even did things beyond human morality and ethics. Everything is for survival. Soon the boss contacted the guards on the towers in the farm by radio to confirm After checking that everything was fine, he planned to go back to his room and play with the women.

Accompanied by a coughing sound, the boss pressed his chest. He knew that he would not live long, and the radiation had begun to penetrate slowly. Recently, there have been many deformed kangaroos in the playground, but when these deformed kangaroos grow up, the boss will still Sell ​​their meat to people who come to buy, and I will choose some healthy kangaroos to eat.

Pollution will continue to become more and more serious. Most people have fled to the southernmost area, but there is nothing there, and the climate is extremely cold, which will only speed up death. slightly better.

Soon the boss returned to his lounge. More than a dozen women were waiting like servants. The boss walked over cheerfully, and chatted and laughed with the two women in his arms.

And these women wear collars around their necks, their hands and feet are tied, no matter what people here do to them, they will not resist, and these women are very beautiful, which is why these women can enter here reason.

Just when the boss was in the middle of his head, the radio contact came, the boss became confused, but he left the room after feeling comfortable, and soon the boss returned to the main entrance of the shop, there were more than ten people standing in the shop, some of them carried Holding a box, the boss knew what they came for.

"Is it really as you said?"

One of the men wearing glasses and looking a little tired asked, and the boss nodded.

"Indeed, as I said, this is not a rumor. It was caught when we went hunting in the north two months ago. It is indeed a very special kangaroo. Many people came here before, but I didn't sell it. Because the price is not right, what can you give us!"

The boss said and lit a cigar, and more than a dozen gunmen behind him looked at these people in front of them.

"The conduction properties of organisms may have changed, we are the people of the Rowland Institute."

The boss watched with interest. At this moment, the man wearing glasses threw a bag of things behind him. The boss looked suspiciously. One of his subordinates went over and opened the bag. Immediately, the boss showed a surprised look.

"Such a big bag of corn seeds is indeed the highest bidder among all the people. Take them there."

Soon the two scientific researchers followed the boss's subordinates and walked into the basement on the right. The two of them held their noses. There was a lot of blood smell inside. It was an underground slaughterhouse, and as soon as they entered, they could see a Only kangaroos mutilated in the cold, someone is handling the fur.

Soon the two were brought into a room. In a cage, a kangaroo about 1 meter tall stood quietly in front of the cage. Its mouth was slightly open and its hands were locked. Because this kangaroo It is incredible that the kangaroo can open the cage with his own hands, and the most incredible thing is that the kangaroo is blue, and the fur all over the body is blue.

Then the two went over and did a series of simple intelligence tests on the kangaroo. They were shocked to find that the kangaroo actually possessed the initial intelligence of an orangutan.

"As long as you take this thing back and conduct research, you can know something. The recent phenomenon of biological gene recombination may be the last hope of our mankind."

The man wearing glasses spoke, the woman next to him nodded, and then the cage was opened, and the two noticed that the blue kangaroo was covered in injuries.

"This family is dishonest, sneaked away many times, and attacked us."

Then the blue kangaroo obediently entered a cage, several people carried it up, and two scientific researchers returned to the ground.

"But what are you going to do?"

The boss asked as soon as he went up, and the man wearing glasses spoke up.

"This thing is the hope of mankind. Maybe it can allow us to decipher the mystery of genetic recombination. Thank you for your cooperation."

The boss waved his hand, looking at the big bag full of corn seeds, he immediately ordered his subordinates to take this thing to the constant temperature shed for planting.

At this time, the two scientific researchers looked at the kangaroo in the cage quietly. It seemed to be far smarter than they thought, and it knew the current situation. The blue kangaroo looked at them from time to time, and its mouth moved slightly.

"Let's go! This will be our hope, Fredo."

The female scientific researcher spoke, and the male nodded.

"Yeah, hope! More than anything else now."
