Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

8 o'clock in the morning.

A lunar vehicle heading to the Ivan Mine has been prepared, and a group of engineers have been dressed, including Hert, Ussel shouted.

"Everyone, hurry up, we may have to go there at night."

In order to save the only fuel, it is impossible to use an aircraft to get there. Although it is very fast, it consumes too much fuel. This kind of car that relies on solar energy is currently the cheapest.

The large lunar rover with 16 tires can accommodate more than 50 people. A group of people went in one by one. After everyone entered, the hatch was closed and the room began to pressurize and exhaust. A bunch of people took off their aerospace masks.

Hult smiled and looked at the vast white sand sea outside. The mineral resources on the moon are very rich, but mining is very difficult. If you want to mine, you must first build an ecological cover.

After covering a place, humans can work under gravity without the need to wear spacesuits. This process is very long. Currently, only the military and some large companies have such technology.

Now Helt and the others are going to a mine on the lunar base of Ivan Wilderness, one of the top 10 large-scale mining companies in Tianji Space Country.

This is just a relatively small mine of Ivan Mining on the moon and the ground. Ivan Company rose from a hundred years ago, and now Ivan IX has become a prosperous family in Tianji Space Kingdom. Although they are not the founders They are a clan, but they are comparable to the creators, and many creations depend on them.

There are many factions in the empire, but overall there are four major factions, the faction that relies on imperial power, the faction that relies on family, the military faction, and the parliamentary faction.

There used to be a powerful faction composed of scientists, but there have been rebellions by scientists in the past, and now the scientists have no rights.

Helt had talked a lot with the old Helt in the past few days and learned more. He knew that the old Helt had very little life left, and now he needed a young and strong man to take on the work of Z. .

Helt refused at first, but for some reason, Helt could understand everything the old Helt said, as if these things were the same as what he thought. This was probably because they were the same person. The relationship between personal clones.

With the same thinking, the same way of thinking, and the same way of acting, Hert also accepted the elder Hert's proposal. Cooperating with the First Army was the first step.

Now it seems that the queen does not plan to use force against the remaining forces of their clone front for the time being. The old Hert said that the queen wants to use them to generate the wings and power of some merchants.

Because now the businessmen of the family can influence the decisions of the parliament, which is not allowed in the Sky Space Country where imperial power is supreme. As long as the mutual interests are consistent, they can cooperate with the queen.

Hert agrees with this. What they need now is to grow and develop in a short period of time, get as many resources as possible, and then start to develop, rescue more clones to the moon, and develop some combat operations. Only in this way can they compete with the empire.

The old Hert has already planned everything. He only needs to lead everyone and implement the plan. After all, he does not have much time.

Everyone started chatting. Many of them had heard how Helt rescued Yuna and Katerina, and they all admired him. Helt also told them about the situation at that time.

The people in the car were very happy, everyone was talking and laughing, and Hert also asked about some of their previous affairs.

"I didn't even know that I was a clone until my wife disappeared one day. I looked for her for a long time. Although she came back later, she forgot very important details of our lives, so I became suspicious. She was replaced and she was in terrible shape.”

"I'm similar. I was pursuing a girl before. I was already successful, but after she went to the hospital, she became indifferent when she came back."

"My wife and I wanted to have children before, but no matter how hard we tried, we couldn't have children, and we couldn't see a child on the space station. I thought it was strange at the time, so I paid attention."

Everyone said the same thing, that something strange happened to the people around them, but the doctors in the hospital deceived everyone and made up some weird illnesses. Many people didn't understand it, and they were fooled in this way.

In the end, Yuna contacted them and asked them to join the clone front. The oldest person had survived for more than 4 years, which was already very long for the maximum life span of 5 years.

"My current physical condition is very poor and I can only rely on some medicines to maintain my health. I don't know when I will die at any time."

After a man who had lived for more than four years finished speaking, others comforted him and the man smiled.

"Our false life is indeed quite sad. The memories from birth to the present are basically false. Even if we have just established a relationship with someone, this relationship is not over yet. Maybe everything is over. "

Many people lowered their heads with some emotion. At this moment, Helt was thinking of Katerina. She was still in poor health. Helt decided that when Katerina gets well, he would confess to her. .

Helt didn't want to leave any regrets, he stood up and said.

"Although we have lost a lot, and were controlled by the empire even before we knew the truth, we must be grateful that we are still alive, we can still breathe, and we still have the strength to resist."

After Hurt finished speaking, everyone applauded, and he continued with a smile.

"So I think we all need to work harder. Although it is harder, we must help Yuna and the others as soon as possible and collect all strategic reserve resources as much as possible."

Everyone agreed with what Hert said. Now everyone is very motivated and can start working after arriving at the mine. At this time, Yussel walked in and looked at the eager atmosphere. He glanced at Hert. Sure enough, he and the old man Like Hert, he is always able to infect those around him.

"Okay, we have just received some fault points from Yuna and others, as well as parts of the program that need to be replaced. You can take a good look at it first, and you will have to start repairing it when you get there."

Everyone nodded and took out the spar panel. Hurt also sat down and started to look at it seriously.

Hert knew very well that he was just a seed left behind by General Hert just in case. After all, the old Hert was about to die. He didn't know if he and Stowe were still there elsewhere. Croft's clone.

But since General Hert has betrayed them, it is very likely that the clones of Hert and Stokov have been eliminated elsewhere.

After a while, some people began to close their eyes and sleep. It would take about ten hours to pass here. Hult also felt tired, and he fell asleep quickly.

The aroma of food woke up many people. Youssel came with a dining car. Many people wiped their saliva. Their rations were just some pancakes mixed with potatoes and corn.

Everyone was given two large pieces, and they were paired with some black tea. This was the ultimate enjoyment for everyone. But when Helt was about to take a bite, he thought that he had eaten meat many times before. Time's gastric juices began to fluctuate, and Helt covered his mouth.

An engineer on the side noticed something strange about Helt and said.

"Even if you still can't accept the fact that you have eaten meat before, you still have to eat it and not spit it out."

Helt understood, closed his eyes, and tried not to think about those things as much as possible. Others also noticed Helt's situation, someone said.

"I was like this before. After knowing the truth, I couldn't help but spit it out."

Many people here said that they had gone to the butcher shop to buy food without knowing it.

These meats are all made from the parts of the clones that cannot be reused after they are recycled, and can also relieve the food pressure of some clone groups, and a lot of the food produced by the clones has been supplied to normal people in the empire.

It is precisely because of the dedicated work of clones like them that the entire human race in Tianji Space Kingdom can be so prosperous.

After a while, Helt finished eating. He suppressed the nausea in his heart. This feeling was really terrible. The car was still moving forward and it would take another 7 hours to arrive.

At this time, the lights in the room were turned off. In order to save energy, it was already dark. Everyone closed their eyes and stopped talking quietly.

In the bumps, Hurt wandered between sleep and wakefulness, the car stopped and the lights came on.

Many people stood up and yawned, and began to put on aerospace masks. Hert stretched his limbs, and the rear hatch opened. In front of him was a huge mine, with many people still busy inside.

As soon as everyone entered, passed an isolation passage, and unloaded equipment, they saw Yuna and some cadres waiting as soon as they went out. Yuna ran over happily, hugged Hert and said.

"I didn't expect you to come."

Everyone laughed. Many clones were still watching. There were not many people working. Hult looked over and saw some tired-looking people pushing the ore out of the mine.

"how"

Before Helt finished speaking, Yuna took his arm. Helt was a little embarrassed and wanted to avoid it, and Yuna said.

"No hiding."

Helt looked a little embarrassed, Yuna said.

"They are humans here. There are only about 30 of them. They used to enslave the clones in the mine to work day and night, constantly overdrawing their lives. Now let them experience it."

At this time, a human couldn't bear it anymore and fell to the ground. Yuna let go of her hand and rushed over quickly, picked up the whip and whipped him directly.

"Move it quickly, otherwise I will throw you out right now."

As soon as Yuna finished speaking, many people cheered. The human begged that he couldn't do it anymore. However, Yuna didn't care and started beating her hard with a whip. Some humans who were still working were trembling, especially He's a pot-bellied guy.

"enough."

Helt held Yuna's hand and Yuna said.

"Don't forget how cruel they were to us."

Hurt shook his head.

"They are indeed cruel, but if we become as cruel as them, then one day we will become theirs."

Yuna snorted coldly, put down the whip, and then said.

"Only a short break."

The humans on the ground nodded gratefully, and Hert looked at the many people around him. They looked listless, as if they were depressed because they had just learned that they were clones.

Helt couldn't stand it any longer, so he asked Yuna to get the loudspeaker equipment, and he shouted.

"Everyone, I know how everyone is feeling right now. I know exactly what everyone is thinking. Are we human beings? Because I just learned that I am a clone. I have also thought about this question. Are we human beings? Human beings are still tools made by humans.”

The mine became quiet, Yuna looked at Helt with her beautiful eyes, and he continued.

"But what is the definition of a human being? We have feelings and intelligent thinking. We have both. We know what love is, what happiness is, what sadness is, what loss is. We actively think about many things, so the answer has been No one else needs to define or explain, we are people who can breathe and have a heartbeat. Please get up and help us. We need to repair some machinery now. We urgently need to provide a large amount of supplies to our army, because we Xu Yao overthrew such a cruel system in the empire. We, the clone front, will fight until the empire completely eliminates the clone system. Our birth is unfortunate, but at the same time we are lucky. Because we are still alive now."

Many people applauded, and some people moved. Yuna bumped into Hert and smiled.

"It's really yours."

Hert smiled awkwardly. He took the engineers with him and started to go to some places where the equipment was damaged. Hert went directly to the program room.

Now we need to try to completely change the procedures of this mine in order to completely get rid of the control of Ivan Mining.

Yuna happily watched Helt assigning work. Everything went so smoothly. Many people in the mine began to move and everyone began to work together. Some clones entered the mine and planned to continue carrying some ore. Some people just start rough machining.

Because many people have already understood that they have no way out, and now they really feel that they are still human beings.

Soon everyone started to work, and Yuna planned to take a team out to continue reconnaissance. After all, the Ivan family had its own private armed forces. Even if the Queen could turn a blind eye, Ivan IX could not. Will do.

Looking at Yuna leaving, Helt breathed a sigh of relief. Someone made a joke and said that Yuna liked Helt, but Helt could only smile helplessly.

"Don't talk nonsense, I just get along with her."
