Chapter 21 News from the Tailed Snake

Genetic adjustment is a new product of the CE era, but can humans really control the dangers of this technology?

Human beings always want to be superior to others, from the material level, the power level, and to their own genes. But what is "superiority"? Who can confidently truly understand this most fundamental question?

Excluding bad components in chromosomal genes is a means to adjust genes, but can the "bad" we understand today really represent the truth? In normal times, some genes can only bring negative effects, and in a certain specific environment, it may be the only means of immunization against specific viruses. This is not uncommon in medicine. Sickle-like red blood cells can cause anemia, and fetuses that inherit anemia may be able to avoid genetic diseases by eliminating this gene. However, when malaria parasites are rampant, it is an important means to immunize malaria.

The "bad" in genes is ruled out, but no one knows whether at some time in the future, in a certain situation, will he be helpless against some unknown virus because he abandoned the "bad gene". The human genes are the result of the evolution of ancestors in a long history. After countless survival of the fittest, humans can really compare with the magical skills of nature with just decades of genetic technology?

At least, Plant has already tasted the bitter fruit now: the baby birth rate of coordinator is worse than that of the next generation, and an infertile race is bound to disappear in the long river of history no matter how outstanding it is.

"Are we really the right direction for human evolution?" Some of the people in Plant had such questions. Shigall, who had such questions, went further and further away from Patrick. This was not only in the highest verdict, but also among the people, some people were deeply worried about it. These people came together to form an association, which was the predecessor of the 'terminal'.

As the hatred between coordinators and natural persons deepened, the association that advocated cooperation with natural persons could not continue to exist openly, so they moved underground, especially after "Bloody Valentine's Day", the contradiction suddenly broke out into a war, and the "terminal" was born here.

‘Terminal’ is a huge organization with personnel spread throughout the Plant industry, including the Supreme Councilor of the Congress, Gel, who has a wealth of intelligence sources, technical support from various laboratories, and even has their own weapons manufacturing workshops.

"Most of the information sent before cannot be studied." Director Angela's voice was filled with a wry smile. Plant always thought he was at the forefront of human science. However, the existence of the Sodebrega made them realize that those prides are worthless at all, which is undoubtedly a blow to people, and what is even more unbearable is that they don't even have the means to study those information.

Any science and technology requires a large amount of scientific data to support, and those materials only state the results, but have no explanation for the way to achieve such results. Perhaps human science and technology have developed for a thousand years and have understood the relevant theories, it does not require more explanation, but for humans in this era, it is an unsolvable heavenly book.

Even if you want to understand the theories through experiments, the technical limitations of this era are far from meeting the needs of experiments. Since even experimental equipment cannot be manufactured, the experiment itself is of course even more impossible to talk about.

"In other words, this information is completely useless?" It is certainly impossible to say that Shigall does not feel a pity, but he was inexplicably grateful. The advancement of weapon technology means combat readiness competition. Perhaps one day such competition will lead to destruction, so it is better than these technologies that have not appeared from the beginning.

"It is not completely useless. At least we have mastered the relevant theories in the quantum communication technology, and it will take no time to put it into practical use after technical demonstration. Moreover, there are already some interesting ideas in the laboratory for the application of quantum technology..."

“Interesting thoughts?”

Earth, Arctic Base

Hoshino Ryuri did not die in that failed battle, but was injured. This was what Xiaofeng had known before, but she did not expect that the girl's injury would be so serious.

"Two artillery shells hit the bridge. Although she was sent into the escape pod by the adjutant before the sinking of the Satsuko, a piece of shell was stabbed into her abdomen and chest."

With the medical technology of this era, such injuries are not enough to be fatal, but they are undoubtedly serious injuries.

"General, why not send Liuli to the Sodebrega, the medical system above is more advanced."

The Sodebrega is not the strongest among the Lost Spaceships, but it specializes in medical care. This is not only reflected in the self-healing ability of the spaceship itself. The medical room in the spaceship can also treat the crew well, and the medical ability is far beyond this era. Of course, General Bafford would not doubt this spaceship, which has already given him too much surprise.

"Since you said that... By the way, Admiral Yeyue, someone sent us a piece of information just now."

"Yes?" Xiaofeng didn't know what Bafoduo wanted to say. As an army, he would receive a lot of information every day. It was the operational command center's business. What did it have to do with her?

"The information sent was not from other military departments, but from outside personnel. The other party claimed that he was Cong Yunxie. You should have an impression of this name, right?"

"Cong Yun impeach? Snake tail?" Xiao Feng of course remembers that although it is only a one-time relationship, this man who works in mercenary work can always give people a deep impression. Perhaps it should be said that he has a different temperament from ordinary people.

Without asking Xiaofeng to guess, Bafoduo handed her a printed fax paper. There was not much information on the paper. General Bafoduo was also confused before, but only considered that the other party clearly asked to convey it to Xiaofeng, he tried to give it to the girl. However, he didn't expect that Xiaofeng's face became much more serious after seeing the fax paper.

"What's wrong?" Bafodo, who was originally relaxed, had to pay attention to Xiaofeng's appearance after discovering Xiaofeng.

There is very little content on the paper, just indicating the coordinates in a universe. Plant is building artificial buildings and using illusion particles to secretly build them. The illusion particles can be avoided from being spyed to the greatest extent. The Earth Army has not found any relevant clues so far. It can also be seen that the other party's confidentiality work is indeed done well, but it can avoid the eyes and ears of the regular army. There are more annoying vultures in the entire universe - mercenaries - who are more annoying than the regular army.

This was exactly what Xiaofeng asked the "Snake Tail" to pay attention to at that time. He was just casually speaking and didn't have much confidence, but he didn't expect that he could really gain something. Bafodo didn't care too much, because in his opinion, it might just be a laboratory or arsenal created by Plant. But apart from Xiaofeng, how many people could know that ZAFT was building some kind of terrifying weapon that could destroy the moon base with one blow, and directly cause a catastrophe to the earth!

GENESIS (Genesis), an facility built by the coordinator to promote the interstellar journey of the sun sails, was secretly modified by an organization headed by Patrick after the war triggered by the bloody Valentine's Day, becoming the deadliest celestial-level weapon.

The original work does not specify the time and specific location of the reconstruction of "Genesis". It is only clear that it was modified after Bloodstained Valentine's Day. Since the control room is located in Yajin Duwei, its original body is not too far away from Yajin Duwei.

However, the concept of universe space is not too far, it is a range of thousands or tens of thousands of kilometers. If there is no clear coordinate, it does not have much reference significance. At this time, she is holding such a coordinate.

She was unable to completely stop the blood-stained Valentine's Day, nor could she avoid the earth from neutron interference. Xiaofeng thought that her power was already difficult to understand in the eyes of ordinary people, but she was restricted everywhere in the face of the hatred of the world itself. But at least, she could never give the gun of this "Star Destroyer" the opportunity to point to the earth. She could not place all hope on the self-destruction of "Justice". Her existence has caused some changes to the trajectory of this world. If "Justice" is not stopped in time, it would be a disaster that no one can bear.

"General, ZAFT is likely to be building some kind of devastating secret weapon, and its power is probably more than that of a nuclear bomb..." Xiaofeng tried hard to consider the words, in order to make what she said more convincing. After all, she did not have substantial evidence, "... Although I don't have much evidence, if that is really true, we must not stand by.

SEED does not want natural persons to exterminate coordinators, but also does not want coordinators to cause irreparable damage to the earth, keep everything within a controllable range, and then stop war to the greatest extent.

This is more difficult than trying to defeat the enemy, and will make many people who should be comrades not understand it, and even regard it as a traitor. Whether in the Earth Army or in the Plant, this thorny path is likely to be considered treason, and will be permanently nailed to the pillar of shame even after death.

It is easy to follow the command of your superior and pull the trigger without bearing any burden. The sentence "This is the command of your superior" can shirk everything. But there are always some people who are unwilling to follow the trend and use the thin body of the mantis arm to block the wheel of the rolling human original sin without fear.

"Okay, Admiral Yeyue. I approve your authority to investigate, but there is a condition that the Sodebrega cannot be dispatched!"

“Eh?”

"I know, this is not a reasonable requirement, but in order not to hand it over to the military, this is the best result of our compromise after fighting with the military."

The ability of the Sodebrega is really scary. Not only is ZAFT frightened by it, but many people on Earth United are also very afraid of it. Xiaofeng should have this awareness when he dispatched the spacecraft. Although he made efforts to avoid the spacecraft being confiscated by the military headquarters, he had to restrict it.
