"Popochi?" Gu Qingqing exclaimed, "You are the Popoch who is known as the living fossil of the Far East?" ”

The blue-green light flickered alternately in the electronic eye, and Bopoch moved his huge mechanical head, "It is said that there are a total of 198 people named Popoch in the fortress at present, but I am the only one who is called a living fossil." ”

"Grandpa, you're more than five hundred years old?" Gu Qingqing's big eyes flashed brightly.

"If I were still alive now," seemed to ...... a slightly self-deprecating tone, "if I count from the day I was born, I would have been conscious for five hundred and sixty-seven years now." ”

He has only lived for less than 20 years in total, how can Gu Qingqing understand the calmness, peace and indifference of a life consciousness body of nearly 600 years. Looking at the other party's complex mechanical body, she nodded thoughtfully, thinking to herself, "It seems that if you have lost your body, you really can't be considered a pure life......

"I'm not like the average mechanical modder, in a way, I'm just a mechanical carrier of the Bopoch consciousness that was once a human." Slowly introduced the debugged compound nutrient solution into Si Xingfeng's mouth, and explained in an indifferent electronic voice. "Strictly speaking, my current body is already the ninth generation."

Looking at it as if he didn't understand, Gu Qingqing turned his gaze to Si Xingfeng, "Okay, I don't understand it very well." Well, I want to ask you, what does the gene lock mean? ”

"That's a long story, but you can interpret it as a natural shackle that binds us humans to become stronger." Boboqi watched Si Xingfeng's body quickly absorb all kinds of nutrients, and seemed to be very satisfied. "Each life organism has its own unique genetic structure and sequence, so there are also different genetic shackles."

"The existence of genetic locks will limit the form, size, lifespan, speed, and many other abilities of living organisms." Stretching out a robotic arm with the longest arm span, Popoch refracted a three-dimensional virtual image onto the palm of his hand. "You know that the transcendent professions are roughly divided into three levels and nine ranks, but in fact, each transcendent profession represents an attempt to break the genetic shackles in the human body and make us stronger."

"Each of them is, so why are there classes of professions?" Gu Qingqing seemed to feel that the door to a new world had been opened, and she was worried that her gunner's career would have limited improvement in the later stage, and she didn't know what kind of profession to choose as a support class.

"Because the exploration path of some transcendent professions has come to an end, and they can't continue to walk, and they can't keep their own strength strong, so they will be classified as low-order transcendent professions! After all, in our fortress, combat effectiveness is the only criterion for measuring whether a warrior is truly strong or not. ”

Gu Qingqing thought thoughtfully, "Since it is exploration, does it mean that even if it has been determined that the road has come to an end, in fact, it may not really be a turning point!" ”

"You're right, that's why there are order breakers and many new classes!" Popoch withdrew his arm, "You can understand the former as violently breaking the lock, and the latter you can think of as another way." ”

"Doesn't that mean I can make a breakthrough in the gunslinger profession and keep working my way up?"

"Of course, every road will not be completely blocked, and at the same time, the state of each person's genetic lock is different! So you should have heard that in the choice of extraordinary careers, there is no need to blindly pursue power, only what suits you is the best. ”

Gu Qingqing pointed at Si Xingfeng, who was still with his eyes closed, "What about him, why do you say that he has most likely opened the genetic lock in his body?" Is it because of that vial of cell-critical gene repair elixir? ”

"Yes, but no. His own physical functions are already very good, far more than ordinary people, which is why he was able to survive the intense radiation and withstand the intense stimulation of the water of life! "Bopoqi reached out a very slender blue-gold mechanical arm, and used the extremely sharp special alloy on it to cut through Si Xingfeng's fingers and collect some of his blood." The average human body cannot withstand the terrible side effects of the water of life. ”

"It can be said that even without the water of life, this kid must be able to become a disorder-breaker on his own. No matter what extraordinary profession he chooses, he has the possibility of opening the genetic lock in his body with his own ability! And the stimulation of the water of life has undoubtedly greatly accelerated this speed. Seeing that the wound on Si Xingfeng's finger was really healing on its own at a high speed, Popoch basically confirmed his guess.

Gu Qingqing seemed to understand, "After experiencing this time, he will become even more powerful than before, right?" ”

"For now, his skin hardness and recovery ability have reached the standard of ordinary genetic locks. However, if he doesn't get other ability boosts, the overall increase in his own combat power shouldn't be very large. "Popoch is on the matter." For the study of gene locks, in fact, the entire academy is currently in the exploration stage, and the specific changes still have to wait for him to wake up and see his own changes. ”

"Okay." Gu Qingqing stretched his waist, walked to Si Xingfeng's side, and looked at him with a little hope.

Don't look at Gu Qingqing has always regarded herself as the eldest sister of the team, but in fact, she knows very well that the real core among several people is the Si Xing style who has always been diligent, hard-working, and seems to have the weakest sense of existence.

She also knew very well that the three years of study at the War College were much more dangerous than the leisurely life she had once lived in Dongting. Here, they are to be groomed as good fighters in the future, and a fixed squad with strong allies means that it will be easier for them to survive the brutal training.

……

I don't know how long it took, Gu Qingqing, who hadn't closed his eyes for several days, almost fell asleep, and Si Xingfeng completely woke up.

Feeling the huge energy in his body, Si Xingfeng spit out the tube in his mouth, and subconsciously jumped out of the nutrition warehouse by himself as soon as he turned over.

Looking around with some surprise, he saw Gu Qingqing half-leaning on the table at a glance. Although he was confused before, he still vaguely felt that someone extremely close to him had been guarding him, "Qingqing? Where is this? ”

"Ah, face paralysis, are you awake?" Rubbing his eyes, Gu Qingqing jumped up excitedly. "But it scared the hell out of me, you're finally sober?"

"Me, what's going on?" Looking at his arm, which was whiter and smoother than before, Si Xingfeng asked suspiciously: "Didn't I suffer from radiation, and then I was taken back to the academy for quarantine, I remember that my arms were already festering at that time?" ”

"Yes, that's right! When I first met you, you were covered in blood and covered in pieces of rotten flesh! "Showing her neat little shell teeth, "Then this fairy saw that you were too miserable, so she saved you!" ”

"You can save me?" Si Xingfeng was a little skeptical, he seemed to have been rescued, and the sense of strength fed back to him by his body was even better than before, but he didn't think that Gu Qingqing had this ability.

"Hey, what kind of expression do you have, shouldn't you be grateful to your savior? Dead face paralysis! Gu Qingqing's little face tightened, and he rolled his eyes at him.

"Wait a minute, you let me mess up, I'm a little messy! Where am I now, this is? ”

"Here, the general control room of the academy's quarantine area!"

"Did you save me? Do you have what it takes? Why didn't I know? "Si Xingfeng has been with her for nearly three years, how can he believe that Gu Qingqing suddenly has such a strong healing ability, and she is not a heavenly person like her adoptive father.

"Hmph, kindness is regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs, if you don't believe it, forget it, you still suspect others." Gu Qingqing turned around and ignored him.

Si Xingfeng realized that he seemed to be a little excessive, no matter what, when he was in a coma, Gu Qingqing had always been by his side.

"Well, Lady Fairy, I just woke up, and I'm a little stupid! You adults don't care about the villain, the little one knows it's wrong......" Changing into a flattering expression, Si Xingfeng hurriedly ran in front of Gu Qingqing. "Little, thank you for the life-saving grace of the Qingqing Fairy!"

"Huh......" looked at him with some disgust, "Dead face paralysis, can you not learn so greasy from the fat ball!" ”

"Also, you stink too much, hurry up and wash it." As he spoke, Gu Qingqing pushed him in front of Boboqi, "Grandpa Popoqi, do you have a bathroom here?" ”

Boboqi moved more than a dozen mechanical arms around his body, and turned around again, "Do you think I need to take a bath?" ”

Gu Qingqing and Si Xingfeng glanced at each other and shook their heads.

"But there's a cleaning pod here that hasn't been used in a long time, and it can be used to remove dirt from his body, but I don't have any clothes here for him to change!" Popoch casually opened a secret door behind him.

"That's fine, I'll just have someone bring a set of clothes." Gu Qingqing said in a big way. Immediately, he dialed Qiu Longhe's communicator, "Fat Ball, you prepare a set of clothes that are paralyzed and find a way to send them to the general control room of the quarantine area in the War College!" ”

"What? Fairy-sama, did that potion work? Brother Feng, he's awake, isn't he? Are you sure? Qiu Long, who was sharpening a strange long knife, quickly stopped what he was doing and asked excitedly.

"Hmmm! He's fine, except for a little stinky and needs to change his clothes. "Gu Qingqing has somehow been obedient to Qiu Long in the past few years.

"That, Lord Fairy, can I say a word to Brother Feng?" Qiu Long replied nervously.

Gu Qingqing also knew that the two of them had a very good relationship, but he wrinkled the little man slightly, and tilted his head and sent the ear wearing the communicator to Si Xingfeng's mouth. "Oh, Fat Ball, he wants to hear something from you."

"Qiuqiu, I'm fine, don't worry." Although Si Xingfeng still had a 10,000-year-old zombie face, there was endless joy in his eyes that could not be concealed. It's not just the aftermath of the catastrophe, but the feeling of being cared for, it's so good!

Qiu Long was on the other side of the communicator, and when he heard Si Xingfeng's words again, he couldn't help but burst into tears of excitement, hurriedly hung up the communicator, and quickly greeted the assistant beside him, and hurriedly ran to the dormitory of Dongting Academy.

"Then you go wash it first, and Qiuqiu will come over in a while, so you can change your clothes directly." Gu Qingqing turned his head and instructed, but he accidentally saw Si Xingfeng's somewhat absent-minded appearance.

As soon as his eyes rolled, Gu Qingqing immediately understood what Si Xingfeng was thinking, stretched out his right arm, and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, Liuli's situation is much better than yours, and basically nothing has affected it." She and that Youning were both picked up by Uncle Ning! Don't worry about her, Uncle Ning is very capable! ”

"Hey, hey, hey!" Si Xingfeng actually smirked abruptly, and the corners of his mouth opened a big arc. "That's good."

Seeing that he suddenly made a fool, Gu Qingqing was taken aback, and said in his heart, "This dead face is paralyzed, and he is so beautiful when he laughs!" ”

On the other hand, a big stone in Si Xingfeng's heart fell to the ground, so he bowed down and saluted Bopoqi, and walked straight into the secret cleaning cabin. His mind is still a little chaotic now, and the smell of all kinds of blood and body fluids on his body is indeed a little too big, and he can't calm down at this time.
