my son billions

When Lilith came to the villa, she saw the little dragon cub running staggeringly in the yard, and Xiao Yezi chasing after it.

She greeted Xiaoye in a good mood, "Xiaoye, I saw a baby diaper that can automatically adjust the size according to the baby's size on the Internet in the past two days. I have already placed an order, and the time will come." I'll send it over to you to see if I can use it for Xiao Jiu."

"It keeps running around naked like this, so be careful not to get your butt pierced by a branch! Hahaha!" Lilith couldn't help laughing as she spoke, obviously in a good mood.

Little Ye Zi didn't care about such kind teasing, she even stopped in her tracks, nodded politely at her, and then chased after her again.

Looking at the two figures running back and forth in front of her, Lilith couldn't help but shook her head with a smile.Although she always felt that Xiao Ye Zi had a strange aura, but most of the time it seemed harmless and cute.

It would be nice if it could go on like this forever.

But then she put away these distracting thoughts, hurried to Xu Chu's study, and explained her research results on No. 3.

"The creatures have two sets of genomes, one for their information-processing centers—similar to our brains. The other for the parts outside the brain, the part used for mimicry, which we might call It is the body.

"When they remove their mimicry and return to their original state, and the two of them fuse together, as long as they can suppress the instinct of devouring and attacking each other, they can exchange information to a certain extent. And such exchanges can promote their The brain develops rapidly, leading to higher intelligence."

While talking, Slilith took out the experimental information of No. 3, "In this experiment, we let No. 3 communicate with ten other individuals, and the effect is obvious. After each communication, his IQ The test performance is getting better and better."

Xu Chu flipped through the IQ test reports, with a surprised expression on his face.

"That's why when they gobble up other creatures, their brains grow very slowly. Because they get the genetic information of the creature when they gobble it up, and filter out the useful fragments to splice them into their own genes - and this process only happens in in the set of genomes in their bodies.

"However, when the individuals they engulf are of the same race, they can directly obtain the information stored in the brain of the other party and supplement the genome information of the brain."

"Of course, there should not be no information exchange between the two sets of genomes, but we have not been able to confirm this further for the time being."

What Lilith said was complicated and confusing, but Xu Chu captured the information he needed from it.

In other words, his little bugs can become physically stronger through constant predation.As for their brains, in addition to cannibalism, they can also exchange information in a way that the original body blends with each other, thereby promoting their brain development.

"Then is the kind of communication you mentioned dangerous?" Xu Chu asked the question he was most concerned about.

"In fact," Lilith continued after a pause, "this kind of creature itself is quite aggressive, but fortunately there is a clear hierarchy between individuals. So in the process of information exchange, if one party can completely suppress the other party If it is not, it is not impossible to share information with each other—no, in fact, it is more like unilateral plunder. Of course, the plundered party will not be harmed, unless the plundering party wants to attack it.”

"On the contrary, if there is not much difference in strength between the two, if the plundered party wants to resist, it is expected that it may cause harm to both. However, in our ten groups of experimental subjects, this did not happen."

Xu Chu nodded when he heard the words, he knew about this experiment.At that time, he also agreed to the ** experiment after repeated thinking.And every individual in the experiment was also handpicked by him.

"Although the process was difficult, the result was quite beautiful." Lilith said with a smile.

Xu Chu flipped through the data with a smile on his face.

Wisdom is an essential thing for the development of a race. He didn't know what kind of turning point such a thing would bring to the fate of this race, and what kind of changes it would bring to the world.Just from his point of view, he couldn't resist such a temptation at all.

Seeing that Xu Chu was in a good mood at this time, Lilith paused, and then immediately began to introduce another experiment result.

And when Xu Chu knew that Lilith was actually using those people living on Kuipengla to conduct human experiments, Xu Chu was shocked, but at the same time, he could understand the helplessness of the other party as he did.

While Lilith was talking about the functional data of this so-called gene enhancer after several experiments, she carefully observed Xu Chu's expression.

Seeing that the other party's complexion was not good, she thought about it and explained anxiously: "I didn't do these experiments for this purpose. You asked me to analyze the composition of this substance from the beginning, and you once told me , you suspect that this substance is somehow related to the gene enhancement needle. If we can prove this connection, the market value of this gene enhancer will be unimaginable, and it will also help us solve the dilemma on Kuipengla — but we've been short of experimental samples."

"And what I know is that the physical problems of those people on Kuipenla may be solved with gene enhancement injections. That's why I let them voluntarily conduct experiments to prove that the genetic booster and enhancement injections The correlation between them. And the data have indeed proved that the components of gene promoters that we cannot analyze can indeed repair some evolutionary failures in genes to a certain extent."

"I know." Xu Chu stretched out his hand to prevent Lilith from explaining further.In his opinion, Lilith's actions are understandable, and they did not violate their previous agreement, but I am afraid that a few additional conditions will have to be added to the agreement in the future.

"I think that's why O'Neill has always wanted the liquid you have on hand. He must have some fighters whose gene enhancement has not been successful, and need to repair the broken gene chain." Sailor suddenly said.

Xu Chu had already thought about this question, but he wanted to hear what Seiler would say.

"From the beginning of the War of Independence to the founding of the alliance, countless people in the entire alliance have used genetic enhancement needles. In fact, only a few people have really succeeded. Most of them have either died or been trapped in those terrible genetic alienation all their lives. However, among these people, except for those fighters who voluntarily joined the intensive program earlier, most of them have enough family resources to pay large sums of money to buy any medicine that can relieve their pain."

"They will also become our potential customers, and our problems will be solved." Sailor said, with a smile on his face, and turned to look at Xu Chu.

What's their problem?Of course it's a matter of lack of money.

However, no matter whether he had enough credit points or not, Xu Chu still sent someone to order another batch of goods from the organic synthesis device company.But this time, he wasn't planning to have the company's delivery crew come to his door.

Then, he and several people compared the data of countless unmanned stars in the star field between Kuipenla and Mormo, and finally selected an unmanned star deviated from the main route and surrounded by a meteorite area. human star.

"With this meteorite area, ordinary spaceships will not approach this planet." Sailor said.

"And the distance between this planet and the star in the galaxy is just right. The surface temperature of the planet is neither too high nor too low, which is very suitable for the survival of this kind of creature and will not affect the operation of the organic compound synthesis device." Lily Si also said.

Xu Chu nodded when he heard the words, and then finalized this planet as Kuipengla 2.

After that, Xu Chu asked O'Neill to send someone to transport the synthetic device he bought to another uninhabited planet near that planet.

Then another batch of small bugs transported by another team of transport ships from Kuipenla were also unloaded on this transit planet.Then they were taken by No. 3 and flew to their second home with those huge packages containing the synthetic devices.

They can't do long-term interstellar travel, because that would consume a lot of energy, and maybe starve them to death in space.

After all, although they can obtain the radiant energy of stars as part of the energy that supports life, they are not Kemeiqi after all, and they do not have a powerful energy storage function.But in that vast starry sky, the distance between stars is difficult to estimate, and it is impossible to ensure continuous energy supply.But if it is only limited to a short distance, such a trip is more than enough for them.

It's just that the installation of the device requires certain skills. Even with No. 3, it is obvious that the little bugs are still not competent for such a job.

So after thinking about it, Xu Chu simply searched for a batch of abandoned mining robots from Moremo, made some modifications, and sent them there.

Then Xu Chu, who had nothing in his wallet, grabbed O'Neill who came to ask for benefits again, and forced him to tell the real purpose of the gene accelerator he took.It turned out that the person who first used this gene to promote the cure of over-enhanced genetic alienation more than a year ago was O'Neill himself.But now that he was alive and kicking, Xu Chu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, he didn't intend to openly sell the gene accelerator.So far, the technology of strengthening needles has always been firmly controlled by the alliance government and several leading giants who cooperate with the alliance government.And since he wants to accumulate a lot of wealth in a short period of time, he must invest a large number of accelerators in the market. Isn't this a blatant business grab?

Since you want to grab someone's job, you have to steal it!

The legal channels for genetic enhancement needles come from three companies that cooperate with the Union government. They have launched genetic enhancement needles with different success rates, and their value increases by orders of magnitude.For ordinary people, they can only afford the F-103 genetic enhancement needles that cost one million at most. In addition, there are hundreds of millions or trillions of better quality and higher enhancement rates.But even the best A-551 has a success rate of less than 50%.

In fact, in addition to the gene enhancement needles produced by the three companies that cooperate with the government, there are many enhancement needles of unknown origin circulating on the market.The advantage of these strengthening needles is that they are cheap, but the success rate and effect of strengthening are not guaranteed.And those who choose the black market are often because they want to be cheap.However, Xu Chu's accelerant cannot really be sold off a building.

This also means that Xu Chu and the others have a huge potential customer base, but now how to get the gene enhancer into the market has become a big problem.

It is not feasible for such a product to take the obvious path, and the interests that need to be dealt with are too complicated.In order to quickly supply the second and third unmanned planets covered with organic compound synthesis devices, Xu Chu needs a lot of credit points.This also means that he needs to sell the gene booster at a very high price.

And since he wants to sell at a high price, those customers are not stupid. If he cannot gain the trust of the other party at the beginning, it will be difficult to open the market.

"What's so difficult about this?" The voice of the mechanical spider suddenly appeared in the study.

Xu Chu looked over immediately, but saw that the other party was climbing up his desk step by step, and even picked his teeth carelessly with one forelimb.

Seeing this, Xu Chu couldn't help frowning.He didn't invite Oliver to come in this time, but the other party can always appear where he wants to appear.

Oliver obviously knew what Xu Chu was upset about, but he didn't care much.When he climbed onto the table, he tapped the table with his forelegs, turned his head and smiled at Xu Chu, and said, "Do you know where the genetic enhancement needles appeared in the first place?"

Xu Chu was questioned unclearly, but Lilith suddenly looked up at Oliver.

Oliver didn't care about it, and continued: "In fact, the gene enhancement needle was not researched by humans at all in the first place."

"People say that Salimon is a crazy race. In fact, I very much agree with this statement. Salimon's reproductive problems have appeared very early. They have tried various methods, but they have not been able to change their destiny. .When they can no longer solve this problem internally, they start to develop outward. That's why there are so many honey fruits at that time."

"But the honey fruit of other races is simply unable to restore this race that is about to disappear in the long river of history."

"This race is arrogant. They never put any other creatures in their eyes, and think that they are the most advanced life evolution in this universe. Therefore, they believe that the reason why other races cannot conceive their offspring is because of those races. Genes aren't good enough."

Hearing this, Xu Chu probably understood what Oliver wanted to say, "You mean that it was Salimon who developed the genetic enhancement needle in the first place, and wanted to strengthen human beings—or other living organisms, to obtain a sufficiently powerful Flesh to breed for them?"

"That's right. In fact, their madness is not limited to this." Oliver hooked the corners of his mouth when he heard the words, but did not go into details. He just continued, "But it has nothing to do with our topic today. But in fact, many people Knowing that the research on gene enhancement needles started from Salimon, although they no longer do related research, they can still become the best signboard."

Xu Chu raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, "Then how do you think we should use this signboard? We don't have Salimon here."

"We really don't have Salimon here," said the mechanical spider, but the smile on his face made people feel a little weird, "But you have to know that Salimon has been rooted in this star field for thousands of years. , Even now, there are many representatives of Salimon in the entire alliance, and even in the alliance government and the House of Representatives, there are not a few—and you are not one more."

Pretending to be the agent of Salimon - for this point, Sailor and Lilith both agreed, "Salimon's current power is still not small, and once they know what we do, we will definitely be punished. That's not us affordable."

The mechanical spider smiled indifferently, "The interior of Salimon today is not a single iron plate. Who knows what the other is doing? It's good that they can manage their own people well. But for other humans In other words, no one can really verify your identity with this."

"I still think it's too risky to do so." Lilith still disagreed.

"Then I have another idea." The mechanical spider said, the smile on his face was even a little joking.

Xu Chu didn't know why the matter went on and on, and it turned into such a result in the end.

When he put on the clothes and looked at himself in the mirror, he still had a blank expression on his face.

The person in the mirror had a very typical beautiful face of humans in the interstellar era.However, this beauty has slender eyes, thin and slightly pursed lips, and a bit of sharpness in her brows and eyes.

This is the image Lilith and the others designed for him.

Fortunately, Xu Chu is now very familiar with face-changing, and his expression doesn't look too stiff.It's just the clothes he's wearing right now that make him feel the most appropriate.

The simple but elegant black robe, with dark patterns embroidered on the corners, covered his whole body, head, feet and feet, even the skin on his hands was not spared.

Compared with the widow's attire in the feudal era, Xu Chu had to lament that the richness of the material world was sometimes separated from the development of spiritual civilization.

If this kind of clothes were brought to his previous world, if a woman who had lost her husband wore them, they would be scolded bloody.And in this interstellar age, someone would voluntarily wear this black robe—and a hood.

This is the mastery of the dead over the living.

It is difficult for him to understand this kind of psychology, so it is still difficult for him to pretend like this.In order to reduce the difficulty of playing, they can only pay more attention to his appearance.

"The corners of the mouth should droop, and the eyes should be slender and slightly raised." This is Sailor's suggestion. "This will make people look sharp and serious, but it will make people stop looking at other things."

The so-called other things are the melancholy temperament that those honey fruits in black robes often have on them-although they have worked hard, Xu Chu can't squeeze this kind of thing out of him anyway, so I just Can make a fuss elsewhere.

"I think black hair is good. It's a little longer, and it's loose behind the back, and a mole is added under the end of the eye." As a woman, Lilith is more meticulous in this respect with the other elders.

Xu Chu could only keep changing his appearance according to their suggestions, and after finalizing it, he looked a little bit of mixed Chinese and Western.

To be honest, he also thinks this look is very good-looking, but it is a bit feminine, with long hair and tear moles, but it is also in line with the set identity.

As the widow of the enigmatic Salimon, such an identity is safer than a so-called agent.

A honey fruit whose husband is dead, as long as it doesn't hurt their interests, who in Salimon cares what he is doing?

While handing over the new identity materials he prepared for Xu Chu to Xu Chu, O'Neill had to admire his courage, "Are you really going to do this?"

Pretending to be a honey fruit, this kind of thing seems unimaginable to O'Neill.

It's not just a matter of risk taking, it's also about male self-esteem.

O'Neill knew about the gene enhancer, and Xu Chu still needed his help in this matter, so he also told him about the plan.

Xu Chu took a deep breath when he heard the words, but said helplessly: "In order to find more people to take advantage of, I can only do this."
