Super Gene Armor

Chapter 2 Ye Chuan
Seeing that the day's work was about to be completed, the weirdness of the last capsule made Ye Chuan's already relaxed mood tense up again. He found that he couldn't understand the internal code of this white capsule at all!Moreover, the code is broken!

The so-called broken code means that the coding is only partially completed. There are many reasons for this. It may be that the capsule engineer gave up halfway through the writing, or it may be that the internal code is damaged due to external damage.

But these are not the main problems. The real problem is that Ye Chuan has worked in the workshop for three years, but he has never seen such a complicated and weird coding method!

A whole fourteen hundred pages of code!Haven't completed a civilian capsule yet?
You must know that civilian capsules usually end in a dozen pages of code, and at most only a few dozen pages. What kind of primary capsule needs thousands of pages of code to write?

Looking at page after page of esoteric codes, Ye Chuan felt like he was reading a heavenly book. With his level, he couldn't even comprehend any small part of the codes, and he was completely incomprehensible.

He took the white capsule out of the card reader and watched it carefully under the dim light.

The material is cold steel, which has been carefully polished. It is not cold in the hand, but has a warm and jade-like texture. It can be inferred that no matter who created this one-star capsule, it took a lot of effort.

In fact, capsule is just a common name. There are many materials that can be used to make blank capsules. Plastic is only the most basic material among them, and it is also the cheapest. Higher-end capsules are mostly made of metal.

As for the material used for this capsule, although it looks like cold steel, it doesn't feel cheap, and Ye Chuan has never seen it before.

Turning the white capsule over, Ye Chuan saw a pinhole thinner than a hair, and he sighed softly. It turned out that this extremely complicated capsule was a waste product.

Capsules have to go through testing before leaving the factory. Unqualified defective products will be punched by a machine with a steel needle. In this way, the structure and internal code will be destroyed. The reason for this is to prevent anyone from taking these discarded capsules for profit.

The very strange capsule in Ye Chuan's hand is a typical waste product, and the broken code is seen on the screen, which is also caused by the pinhole.

slap~
Since it is a waste product, it has no value in continuing to exist, so Ye Chuan casually threw it into the waste bin under the table.

Although this needle-shaped damage can be repaired, the cost of repair is extremely expensive, and no one would be foolish enough to use expensive repair agents to repair a civilian capsule.

Standing up, Ye Chuan came to Hu Dequan's side, and said calmly: "Today's work is completed, 21 capsules are usable, 59 capsules are damaged but the structure is intact, and [-] capsules are completely discarded."

"Thanks a lot."

Hu Dequan nodded, stretched out his hand to open the drawer, counted four five-yuan bills and handed them to Ye Chuan.

Ye Chuan didn't say much, took the money and stuffed it into his jacket pocket, then took out the cardboard box under the workbench, and left Lao Hu's workshop through the back door.

"21, 59, [-], add up to exactly one hundred capsules." Hu Dewang calculated and said.

Hu Dequan shrugged his shoulders, and said helplessly: "That's right, Ye Chuan is good at everything, but his personality is too stubborn. He only tests a hundred capsules a day, never more, never less, exactly like a capsule. machine…"

……

There is a river of smelly water coming out of the back door of the capsule refurbishment workshop. Ye Chuan turned over the carton and dumped all the discarded capsules into the river. Then he took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it with a match, and took a deep breath. a mouthful.

On the other side of the river is a white wall, and inside the wall is Tianhe College, one of the nine capsule colleges on Earth 570.

The green grass, lush trees, and neat teaching buildings are completely different from the slums where Yechuan is located across the river.

Stamping the cigarette butt on the ground with his feet, Ye Chuan planned to go home.

Suddenly, Ye Chuan noticed a white thing shining under his feet. Looking carefully, it was that strange white capsule. Because it was heavier than other capsules, it was not thrown into the river, but was left in the river by luck. In the riverbank grass.

"Forget it, it's just an incomprehensible waste capsule." Ye Chuan muttered to himself.

But at the same time, the lines of strange codes in his head could not be waved away, as if there was a magic power pulling Ye Chuan's nerves.

What exactly is the code?
Why is it so complicated?

[-] pages of code have not yet finished writing a rudimentary capsule, isn't this too exaggerated?

The same question kept repeating in Ye Chuan's brain, and he couldn't take his eyes off the white capsule lying quietly by the river.

After thinking about it, Ye Chuan still bent down, put the discarded white capsule in his pocket, and walked towards the opposite direction of Tianhe College.

……

"Hey, Ye Chuan is back, is it still the same as yesterday?" Li Dongsheng, who runs a grocery store downstairs from Ye Chuan, greeted Ye Chuan.

Those who live in the city, as long as they hear the word slums, they seem to see a scourge and dare not take half a step closer.

In fact, all the poor people living in this slum area care about each other, which is far from being as scary as the outside rumors say.

Ye Chuan has lived here for five full years. Li Dongsheng has personally watched him go from living on the streets to renting a small apartment and becoming a person with modest wealth in the slums.

During that difficult winter, Li Dongsheng gave Ye Chuan a hot black steamed bun countless times. Ye Chuan still remembers that every day he would go to Li Dongsheng's store to buy fixed daily necessities. This has become a habit of his. .

Nodding, Ye Chuan said: "Well, it's still the same as yesterday."

Li Dongsheng took out the plastic bag he had prepared from the counter and handed it to Ye Chuan. Two black steamed buns cost two yuan, one piece of five cheapest Phoenix brand cigarettes, and two fruit hard candies for eight cents. This is what Ye Chuan fixed at noon every day. Food expenses totaled three yuan and eighty cents.

In the past, most people would dismiss food such as hard candy, saying that eating too much sugar would make you fat, but here, cigarettes and fruit candy are the standard luxuries in the slums. As for obesity, It is a luxury.

"What's the news?" Ye Chuan asked casually.

Li Dongsheng shrugged his shoulders and said: "There's something happening over at the east gate again. It's said that hundreds of mutated beasts tore the men and horses transporting food to pieces. It's estimated that food prices will rise in the next two days, and many people will starve. .”

Ye Chuan nodded and said nothing.

In fact, the earth today is not a peaceful and peaceful place. People live in cities, and outside the cities is a world of mutant beasts.

In 2074 A.D., a rare cosmic storm swept across the galaxy. After this strange storm, human beings experienced explosive genetic mutations, and genetic power was popularized. The entire earth frantically studied capsule technology, and human beings embarked on the highway of development.

It's a pity that the gene explosion is not limited to human beings, beasts, insects, fish, almost all creatures are mutated because of that inexplicable cosmic storm. Up to now, the mutated beasts have controlled most of the land on the earth , drove the human race into the city.

With the increase of population, there is less and less land in the city that can be used for farming. Although there are large open spaces outside the city, they are infested by monsters and cannot be cultivated. Therefore, the biggest threat facing human beings now is food shortage.

Nowadays, manpower is worthless, and there is no need to pay wages to hire a middle-aged worker, as long as there are two full meals a day.

Even for Ye Chuan's highly skilled job, it's just a breakfast plus a measly 20 yuan.

Behind Li Dongsheng's grocery store was a row of temporary tin houses. A small and pretty young woman was holding the arm of a man with freckles and walking towards the dim hut. Ye Chuan recognized this young woman, her name was Shen Bing.

Ye Chuan had to admit that even though Shen Bing was a little older and suffered from the ravages of this dark world, he still had the capital to be proud of.

The man she is facing now is extremely wretched, but Shen Bing still greets him with a smile, although that smile is only for professional needs.

Under Shen Bing's extreme flattery, the wretched man walked into her dark and small wooden house
"It only costs one yuan to sleep with Shen Bing. For you, it's only the price of a steamed bun." Li Dongsheng said with a smile, his eyes looked at Ye Chuan, as if hinting.

The current earth is cruel and chaotic, and the fragile human race maintains its fragile civilization, which may be wiped out by powerful alien races at any time.

Nowadays, the so-called morality is not worth a dime. Finding a woman when you are happy or unhappy is as simple as drinking a glass of water. As for the price you need to pay for doing so, it is probably the lowest in history.

Ye Chuan looked at the swaying cabin, and said calmly: "A steamed bun can provide 221 calories, 47 grams of carbohydrates, 7 grams of protein, 1.3 grams of dietary fiber, plus 1.1 grams of fat and 0.65 units of vitamin E. There are these energy , I can live an extra 48 hours."

Li Dongsheng was startled, then smiled wryly, looked at Ye Chuan and said, "You, you will always think differently from others. When I talk about women, what you think of is heat?"

"I bet, if one day the city breaks down and mutant beasts come in, you will be the last one to survive! Because I have never seen a freak like you in my whole life!"
