Chapter 5 Ancient Genes

On the afternoon of the three days before the atomic explosion, two young soldiers stood proudly at the sentry post at the main gate of the military region, and they were placed there like wax figures.

Although the road outside the gate of the military region is not the main street, it is also a hub connecting the urban area and the suburbs, and along the road, the big trees like giants are neatly arranged on both sides of the road like the soldiers, and the people who come and go in the tree-lined streets always can't help but glance at the young soldiers at the sentry post whenever they pass here.

Suddenly, a black off-road vehicle stopped in the parking space not far from the main entrance of the military region, the door was slowly opened, and a plainly dressed long-haired woman walked down elegantly from the car, and the two young soldiers next to him couldn't help but stare at the back of the woman, not that they looked at the beautiful women in the evening, but because there were no other buildings near the military region, and few people parked their cars near the military region on weekdays.

When the woman turned her head and walked towards the military region, the two soldiers instantly felt a little bad, because they had never seen such a beautiful woman, let alone seen it so closely, her long black hair was simply tied and hung down lightly around her waist, a few strands of hair on her forehead moved with the wind to gently block the beautiful eyebrows that were like willow leaves floating out of the dust, her eyes were clear like a spring from the moon, and her angelic face was full of goodness and tenderness. Looking at the past and present, there seems to be no woman who can compare with the one in front of her.

"Excuse me, is Comrade Zhang Shaohua here?"

"In... At... Are you looking for political commissar Zhang Shaohua? The two young sergeants were a little overwhelmed for a moment, and they were stunned for a long time before the sergeant on the left took the lead in speaking.

"Yes, could you please inform me?"

"Okay, you wait"

At this time, Zhang Shaohua was sorting out some information in the office, and when he learned that a lady was looking for him and asked for his name, the soldier scratched his head embarrassedly and forgot to ask for a while.

Later the woman followed the young soldier into the military district.

Zhang Shaohua was thinking about who should come to him, and he didn't seem to have any female friends or classmates in S City, when a knock sounded on the door.

"Enter"

The woman who was like a fairy stepped in in response, and when she saw Zhang Shaohua, she immediately said happily:

"Brother Shaohua..."

Zhang Shaohua was slightly stunned in his heart, and couldn't help but secretly admire that there were such beautiful women in the world, who seemed to be fairies who came out of a painting, but he couldn't remember who this woman was.

"You are?"

"You're taking a closer look...", the woman said, grabbing the desk, standing on tiptoe and staring at Zhang Shaohua with blinking eyes.

"Yang Yang? Are you Yang Yang? Zhang Shaohua was overjoyed

At this moment, the door was opened, Ye Chen was striding in, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw a plain-clothed woman in the room staring at Zhang Shaohua, and at this time, Shaohua was also staring at the woman with a happy face, as if the next moment the two of them were going to hug each other across the table, Ye Chen instantly popped up a series of question marks in his mind, he knew that in the military region, Zhang Shaohua's style was more decent than himself, not to mention messing with flowers outside, and even those small military flowers in the military region He never said a few words to him, It seems that all the women in the world are inseparable from him, and his serious style is so serious that the female soldiers of the military region deliberately walk around him when they see him.

Just when Ye Chen was puzzled, the woman turned to look at him gently, when Ye Chen's eyes touched the woman's face, suddenly seemed to understand everything, Ye Chen's face was dark at this time, simply put, when a person watched a gorgeous fireworks show, many small firecrackers were just noisy black smoke miasma in front of him.

"This is the chief of staff of the military region, his name is Ye Chen, and he is my brother's brother," Zhang Shaohua continued

"This is my sister from my hometown, named Yang Yang."

'Huh? From my hometown... No, shouldn't it be surnamed Zhang? Of course, Ye Chen knew that Zhang Shaohua was a certain minority from the south, and he couldn't help but feel a little remorseful for his improper thoughts just now, although he still had some doubts, he still said crisply: "Then you brothers and sisters continue to chat, I... It's nothing, it's just going around and gone..."

After Ye Chen left, Yang Yang and Zhang Shaohua couldn't help but laugh when they looked at each other, they didn't think that they would make such a fuss when they first met.

Ye Chen, who had just gone out, suddenly heard laughter from inside, and his face darkened in an instant....

"Brother Shaohua, do you remember how many years we haven't seen each other?"

"It's been a long time..."

"18 years, 5 months and 28 days"

"Brother doesn't have the ability to remember, I only remember that you were just in junior high school at that time." Zhang Shaohua handed Yang Yang a glass of warm water.

"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with ability, but you can remember it if you put your mind to it."

"I haven't been back since your uncle died, and they're all right."

"Well, it's good, I arranged them all to Dawn before I left, (Dawn: The name of the city, located on the coast of the East China Sea in country Z. I'm actually here on a secret mission. I may have to stay in S City for a long time in the future. ”

"Aren't you engaged in biological research? There doesn't seem to be any biological research institute in S City. ”

"Brother, this matter is very important and urgent, ask you a few questions, you have to answer me truthfully." Yang Yang suddenly became serious, because she didn't know how long the war could be hidden in the face of this situation, and everything might be wiped out in the next moment.

"Hmm" Zhang Shaohua was stunned, and suddenly felt that the childhood sweetheart sister in front of him seemed to be hiding some shocking secret.

"How much do you know about 'divine punishment'?"

"'Divine punishment'... It is the main means of a new round of force deterrence in country M, and this kind of nuclear weapon may bring greater follow-up lethality than ordinary nuclear weapons, and it may also be involved in some kind of deadly virus or some biological and chemical weapons, to be honest, I only saw it in some news media, and the military department has not yet sent any detailed information. Zhang Shaohua really didn't know much, but out of his military vocation, he instinctively just said some information that the public knew.

"Brother, have you heard of the 'Phoenix Organization'?"

"I haven't heard of it..."Zhang Shaohua thought for a moment, but he hadn't heard of this.

"What will you do when a nuclear explosion strikes you one day?"

"If I had been alive then, I would have done my best to protect people who were still alive like me." Zhang Shaohua thought for a moment and said.

"Okay, I trust you."

"That's it...?"

"Five years ago, country M announced the 'divine punishment', and according to the intelligence department, the maker of the divine punishment, that is, the 'Guangyao Group' of country M, has no solution and is unknown for 80% of the follow-up of the divine punishment, because this kind of aberration experiment can only obtain experimental results under the high concentration of radiation rays produced after nuclear fusion, and the experimental results may be very unstable, so the experiment has been listed as prohibited and set as top secret. Since the country has known that the destructiveness of the 'divine punishment' is incomprehensible, then it is necessary to make the worst plan, in January 2040, the application of the 'Apocalypse Project' was born, and so far this huge plan has set up many secret departments, and the biological research department where I was placed under an organization called the 'Old God', the 'Ancient God' is a specially established organization after the Divine Punishment nuclear explosion, to put it bluntly, in order to deal with the worst outcome, the organization launched three years ago with the code name ' Immortal's top-secret project, and I am one of the main leaders of this project. ”

"You continue..."Zhang Shaohua is a person who has experienced the edge of life and death, and he has never seen any strong winds and waves, but the information given by the weak sister in front of him completely surprised him, in order to get more information, he didn't ask anything, he just wanted to hear Yang Yang continue.

"The 'Immortal Bird Project' is a research department composed of top biological scientists from many countries, specializing in paleontology and paleomythological biology, we extract mysterious and ancient genes from the genetic sequences of living or surviving biological samples of a variety of organisms for research, after three years of in-depth exploration, we are convinced that the genes of all organisms can be traced back to very ancient species, and even some legendary creatures actually exist, such as Pegasus, unicorns, giants, etc., which we have proven, After further research, we finally extracted the genetic sequence of this very powerful ancient creature, combined with the powerful atavistic mutation brought by divine punishment, we believe that these ancient creatures can be resurrected, but for the sake of safety, they can only be injected into the human body before the nuclear explosion, because the animal has these abilities, and it is afraid that it will become another disaster. ”

"Wait... Are you saying that the genetic sequence of this ancient creature was injected into the human body, and then the human being mutated into this creature after the nuclear explosion? Zhang Shaohua was so stunned that he couldn't continue listening, so much so that he had to interrupt Yang Yang's narration.

"Well, theoretically, even if humans mutate into paleontology, their consciousness will not change, which means that humans still have their previous memories after the mutation, of course.... If this agent is injected into the human body without bionuclear radiation, it will have no effect on humans at all. ”

"You tried?"

"Hmm"

"You've been injected too?"

"I didn't... I just want to be myself. ”

"And who wants to be an animal? Or an animal that has never been seen before. ”

"Objectively speaking, it has surpassed animals, in fact, it can be more appropriately described as 'divine beast'. Therefore, it is extremely important to find a volunteer, first of all, his worldview is correct, and his will is firm. ”

"Is that what you scientists say? What kind of beasts..."

"Isn't that which science cannot be explained by science a miracle when it goes back to the end one day?"

"And you want me to volunteer?"

"Because brother, you have an obsession that most people don't have, you have the power to guard justice in your bones, and you have never wavered, I believe that your good comrades-in-arms should be like this."

"Huh? ......" Zhang Shaohua was a little blindsided, his sister, who had not seen him for 18 years, brought him such a blockbuster Q bomb when they met, and it also affected his comrades-in-arms.

"Brother Shaohua... You don't have to rush to agree or refuse, you must know that with the strength of ordinary humans, it is impossible to lead the remaining surviving humans to the coast of the East China Sea after the nuclear explosion, and only by injecting this potion to complete the evolution can there be a glimmer of hope. ”

"The coast of the East China Sea?" Zhang Shaohua was completely blindsided.

"Another organization of the 'Apocalypse Project' has used advanced scientific and technological instruments and super-first-class scientific research teams to secretly deploy a large number of bomb disposal troops along the coast of the East China Sea, and is still expanding the scope to strive to clear a piece of pure land without nuclear contamination for the survival of surviving human beings before the nuclear explosion, the purpose of our trip is to secretly help the surviving human beings in various places, where to go together after the nuclear explosion, this pure land will also be the final survival and origin of human civilization in the future."

"The bomb disposal unit... The Last Pure Land? Zhang Shaohua was completely blindsided, he only felt as if a nuclear war was about to befall him.

"Brother Shaohua, I know you are a little confused now, take this with you at all times, you will understand one day." Yang Yang took out a palm-sized metal box from his bag and handed it to Zhang Shaohua.

Zhang Shaohua took the box and wrote the words 'Ancient Gene' on it, and when he opened the box, there were five bottles of metal injections that were sealed, and each injection was written with different handwriting, in order: 'Ancient Gene - Strengthened', 'Ancient Gene - Vermilion Bird', 'Ancient Gene - Tianma', 'Ancient Gene - Xiangliu', 'Ancient Gene - Lion Scorpion'.

"What is this reinforcement?" Zhang Shaohua occasionally read some mythological stories, so he still heard of those famous divine beasts, but he had never heard of this 'strengthening'.

"The enhancement potion is a paleontological gene potion that fuses a humanoid type, and theoretically it only improves its various abilities, and its appearance should not change too much, maybe it is just a little higher than now."

"Well, if I had to choose, this one would be mine."

"Brother Shaohua, in fact, I still have one here, which I secretly brought out from the laboratory when I left, and it is very likely that this is the only one in the world, the reason why I didn't report it is because I think it is too strong, I am afraid that the human will will not be able to fully control it, and it is useless for me to keep it, give it to you."

Zhang Shaohua handed over the small silver metal box and couldn't help asking, "Do you think I can control it?" ”

"I don't know, maybe, I just hope my brother lives well."

"Okay, I'll take it first, maybe he can, at least if he can't, then there really is no one who can control it."

When Yang Yang heard Zhang Shaohua's words, a soft smile flashed in his eyes.

"Brother, then I'll go, God knows what happened today, you know what I know, and I must not let a third person know, otherwise I will be in danger, of course, only before the nuclear explosion, as for after the nuclear explosion, it doesn't matter." In order to keep Zhang Shaohua from exposing these secrets, Yang Yang did not hesitate to block his own safety, because as long as her own safety is involved in her memory, Zhang Shaohua will do whatever it takes to protect her, and indeed Zhang Shaohua will do the same.

"Where are you going? I don't know the place of life. Zhang Shaohua was a little worried

"Don't worry, I'm not the only one sent by the organization, we still have a very important mission."

"Okay, brother will send you" As a rigorous soldier, he seems to have an almost irresistible understanding of the word task, hearing Yang Yang like this, Zhang Shaohua resolutely gave up his sister who had not seen him for many years.

"However, if there is any accident, Brother Shaohua can find me as long as he finds the 'Phoenix Organization'."

"Where's the base?"

"I don't know right now, but you'll know when the time comes." Yang Yang smiled mysteriously.

"Yang Yang, you... Why do you want to tell my brother this? Zhang Shaohua paused for a moment and asked again

Yang Yang stopped in front of the door, paused for a moment and said slowly: "According to our research results, in human genes, there are very few people who can be immune to nuclear radiation, and this kind of people will also become the dawn of future human beings, so the main purpose of this operation is to rescue more survivors, in the ruins of the future demons, the surviving human beings may be just a walking food, they need strong-willed heroes to protect them, in my heart Brother Shaohua is such a hero, Not everyone can always defend justice, and it seems to me that although those sent by the organization have good physical fitness and even professional psychological training, and their political orientation is very clear, but in the dark and boundless world of the future, I wonder if they will still resolutely guard their oath in the face of fear and unprecedented power? Compared to them, I believe in you more than Brother Shaohua. ”

Zhang Shaohua suddenly felt that he was a little ashamed of himself compared to Yang Yang, because Yang Yang has always struggled with the belief of finding hope for all mankind, she is selfless and great, Zhang Shaohua seems to understand everything in an instant, the weak guarding justice is just a powerless struggle, only the strong can make justice eternal and regain light.
