Chapter 011: The Truth About Mutation
Principal Hu took the test report in Chen Bo's hand, hurriedly glanced at it twice, and put it aside.
Laser eyes are the best in all kinds of abilities in terms of lethality and attack distance, and I can't complain that Academician Zheng treats Chen Bo as a treasure in the palm of his hand.
"Alright, the four of you have been tested and will be second-year students in our mutant school from today, and first of all, I would like to congratulate the four of you on behalf of the school. ”
Xiang Hong and the others hurriedly bowed to Principal Hu to thank him.
"Now that you're in the second grade, I should tell you the truth about some things. ”
Principal Hu motioned for the four of them to sit down, and then spoke slowly.
"I'm afraid you're still feeling strange, why do some people in the human race awaken and mutate?"
The four brothers nodded their heads in unison, like chickens eating rice.
Xiang Hong had long wanted to ask, he had traveled from 2048, and now he is in 2348 AD, which means that he has traveled 300 years of time and space.
In the year 2348, it was only 30 years since the wormhole was discovered in 2318.
According to Xiang Hong's understanding, before 2318, there were no mutants in humans, and all mutants appeared after the great interstellar migration of humans in 2318.
This also made Xiang Hong a little cranky, isn't it true that all mutants have alien blood?
Now that he finally has the opportunity to solve this mystery, Xiang Hong is still quite eager for it.
Principal Hu picked up the thermos cup and took a sip of wolfberry tea.
"It all started when humans first discovered the Star of Hope. Before the interstellar era, the human beings on the earth were facing the crisis of breaking out into a global war due to the lack of resources, but fortunately, our Huaxia Academy of Sciences accidentally created a wormhole to the Hope Star. After passing through the wormhole, the earthlings found that the Hope Star was simply born for the immigrants of the earth, which is not only completely suitable for human survival, but even the rotation speed around the star is not much different, and the migration of the earth humans to the Hope Star is as simple as immigrating on the earth. ”
Li Zheng's mouth was broken, and when he heard this, he interjected and asked, "Since Hope Star is so good, why should we tell such foreigners?"
Principal Hu glared at Li Zheng: "Listen to me, don't ask questions." ”
Li Zheng immediately shut up, and covered it tightly with his hands, acting as if he had just gotten a little red flower in kindergarten.
"The emergence of the Hope Star has greatly alleviated the resource crisis on the earth, so countries have begun to migrate to the Hope Star through Huaxia. After two years of migration, small numbers of mutants began to emerge in various countries. After continuous research by scientists, it was finally discovered that when earthlings pass through the wormhole, they will be exposed to unexplained radiation, which leads to a certain chance of awakening and becoming mutants. ”
"Since the military and the crew of the spacecraft travel most frequently between Earth and Hope, the original mutants are almost always composed of military personnel and astronauts, and they have always been in the hands of governments, and ordinary people will not know about it. But as the awakening of abilities began to appear among ordinary people who had passed through the wormhole, mutants began to slowly move to the forefront. ”
"Because of their abilities, mutants naturally feel superior to ordinary people. In order to prevent the hearts of mutants from being too inflated and thus giving rise to the idea of dominating ordinary people and becoming a superior class, governments have to establish mutant schools in various places to gather mutants who may mutate or successfully mutate together, and only mutants who do not pose a threat to ordinary people after investigation can re-enter society. ”
Hearing this, Xiang Hong roughly figured out the origin of the mutants.
Wu Hao pushed his black-framed glasses, and asked with a smile: "Principal Hu, listen to what you mean, there should be no mutants on the mother planet, right?"
Principal Hu shook his head: "At the beginning, there were indeed no mutants on the earth, but when the governments of various countries opened up the routes to travel to the Hope Star at the beginning of immigration, there were also a large number of people on the earth who had come to the Hope Star through wormholes, and naturally there would be a certain proportion of mutants among these people." Therefore, the mutant schools on Earth are actually not inferior to Hope Star in terms of quantity and quality. ”
Chen Bo's parents are of a higher class and naturally have a deeper amount of information.
"Principal Hu, the school has been teaching us military skills such as grappling and fighting firearms since the first grade, is it because the government is preparing to form a mutant army?"
Principal Hu laughed hesitantly: "You, did you listen to what your parents said? Actually, what they said is not quite right, the mutant army has existed for a long time, of course, the mutant army is mainly against those who are not willing to obey the government's management of the rebel mutants." ”
"Rebels?"
When Xiang Hong heard this word, what came to mind was the ideological battle between Magneto and Professor X.
"That's right, rebels. These mutant rebels, they believe that mutants are the true rulers of this world, and that Heaven has awakened them to rule this chaotic world. So the mutants with this idea organized and began to confront the government, and the government had already formed a force composed of mutants and fought against the rebels for more than ten years. ”
Li Zheng's eyes widened and asked, "Ah, we've been fighting for more than ten years, so why haven't we heard of it?"
Principal Hu still had a smile on his face: "The original mutants are all composed of soldiers and astronauts, they are all loyal to the government and loyal to the people, and the rebels are just some mutants who later awakened from ordinary people, their power is actually very small, they have been completely suppressed and beaten by the government for more than ten years, and the scale of each battle is not large, coupled with the conscious concealment of the governments of various countries, it is naturally difficult for you to hear about this news." ”
Xiang Hong subconsciously asked, "Since the scale of the rebels is not large, why are governments increasing the size of the mutant troops?"
Obviously, Xiang Hong's question poked Principal Hu's lungs, and Principal Hu's originally bright face looked a little gloomy.
"Well, in fact, you children are not organized to conduct military training to deal with any resistance, although they have been making a lot of noise lately. Countries are constantly expanding their mutant forces, in fact, because of the arms race between countries. ”
"The original superpowers, such as the beautiful country, the eagle country, the bear country, the rooster country, the foot basin country, etc., are now not satisfied with the advantage of our Huaxia monopolization of the teleportation wormhole, and hope that our Huaxia country can hand over the teleportation wormhole to the joint management of various countries. In order not to start a new world war, our government had to agree to avoid a real war by participating in the annual competition between mutant battle teams of various countries. ”
