Sauron Castle is a typical European castle, but it is a white stone castle. When Zhang Weining arrived, Bai Yuntian personally greeted her and explained that she liked the white buildings in the style of Greece-Santorini.

The white castle is built on a high ground, and the foot of the castle is covered with green grass. The white building seems to indicate that the civilization that built it has some kind of spirit, at least, in the vision of all carbon-based lifeforms, white, showing hope and infinite possibilities - white light contains seven colors of light, colorful, the light of life.

The foot of the castle is covered with green grass, and it looks like a subject at the foot of the kingdom. This is the spirit of human domination and the existence of nature in harmony with the green.

When Zhang Weining saw the white castle and green grass for the first time, he didn't realize that he had also entered the visual intuition of all carbon-based lifeforms, but he sincerely hoped that the spirit revealed by the beautiful scenery in front of him could truly become a reality at some point in the future - just like the texture brought by touching those white stones with his hands, with the temperature of the sun, real and heavy.

And Bai Yuntian is like a messenger, on the day she greeted Zhang Weining and Zhang Guoyang, she came alone, wearing a white long dress, walking on the green grass, like an angel in a white dress, and like the daughter of the white castle.

When meeting inside the white castle, Zhang Weining found that the interior of the castle was a little dark, and it was obvious that modern lighting equipment could make the interior of the castle shiny, and it was not difficult to do this, but Bai Yuntian certainly wanted to retain the original atmosphere of the castle - the atmosphere of the European Middle Ages.

The interior of the castle is still lit with candelabras, large chandeliers, candlesticks – of course, are actually candles that simulate the lamps.

At the inside of the castle, the people present were all dressed in well-cut suits or gowns, without logos, and were apparently made by private tailors. No wonder, before attending the party, Bai Yuntian prepared suits for Zhang Weining's father and son. Zhang Guoyang recalled the situation when he entered the door, and it seemed that only the security guard's clothes had brand logos.

The people who come and go at the party behave elegantly and measuredly. There are handsome boys, young girls, and older people. For those who can participate in such a high-level party at a young age, Bai Yuntian whispered that he is the heir of a certain consortium. For those noble ladies who are no longer young but still wear heavy makeup, Zhang Guoyang is still a little uncomfortable - it reminds him of the vampires in the ancient castle.

But maybe vampires are a little bit more environmentally friendly! Because in a certain film, the vampire's clothes, although they look the same as ordinary clothes, are actually biological tissues that grow from their own skin and are part of their bodies, so Zhang Guoyang speculated that they can wash their "clothes" at the same time when they take a bath.

It's a pity that they don't wash clothes, those clothes are often 1 million, and a shirt can buy a good suite in a small and medium-sized city in country C, which can be said to be "worth a room". They don't wash these undresses, and they only wear them once and throw them away.

We all live on the same earth, but their earth may not be the same as the poor man's earth, they are the real masters of the earth, and the poor are only a part of the earth, like grass, or the dirt under the grass.

After the party began, Bai Yuntian quickly introduced some characters to Zhang Weining and his son. These people are all executives, directors or technical experts of some "gene companies", and after Bai Yuntian's introduction, they know that Zhang Weining is a person in the medical field. Of course, they know that ordinary medical professionals do not have the opportunity to attend such high-end gatherings.

It was at this time that Zhang Weining suddenly thought of something. He didn't remember that he had told Bai Yuntian about the "brain change" - could it be that Dean Cao revealed it? Or, did Chen Guangbiao himself reveal it?

Of course, Zhang Weining thought about it, maybe he was just overthinking. If you don't count the aura of the "brain change" chief surgeon, Zhang Weining's resume in other surgeries, academic and medical circles can definitely be called an expert among experts, and he is definitely qualified for such a high-end party

I don't know if I saw the uneasiness in the eyes of Dr. Wei Ning, Bai Yuntian later added to these people: "Professor Wei Ning is the discoverer and patent owner of a bonsai virus. ”

These people are all executives, directors or technical experts of some "gene companies", Bai Yuntian did not say which company they came from, and these people did not introduce themselves, but. Zhang Weining listened to their conversation, and they were very familiar with the industry. Not only that, but these people talked to Zhang Weining about some big projects, which are also in the high-tech and high-profit link in the gene industry chain - the lowest link in the gene industry chain is the discovery and sale of mutant genes, which is the most untechnical, the most immoral, and the most violent link; The second link is extraction, because not all mutated genes are useful genes, and they need to be classified, identified, and found to be useful; The third link is pharmaceutical, genetic drugs, but these drugs are only vaccine drugs, although they are high-end drugs, but there is no heritability, after the parents use the drugs, the genes do not change, or the changed genes cannot be passed on to the next generation, just like the parents have been vaccinated, the offspring can not inherit the vaccine function, and still need to be vaccinated again; The fourth link, the highest-end link, recombinates artificial genes and inherits them to the next generation.

These "gene companies" are all involved in the fourth link - as far as Zhang Weining himself is concerned, he has always been resistant in his heart, and he believes that human beings touching genetic recombination are involved in God's work. Moreover, he deeply abhors the fact that the gene industry chain is bloody and violent in the first link. As for the fourth link, he thinks it is even more evil than the first part.

But reality is profit-oriented, and evil tends to be forgotten.

As time passed, the topic of "genes" continued to deepen, and some people began to talk more because of drinking red wine. Because of the medicine, Zhang Weining did not drink, so he could clearly remember what everyone said.

"Actually, Dad, you might as well ask them if there's any better medicine here." In the midst of the staggering, his son Zhang Guoyang also reminded Zhang Weining. Regarding his illness, Zhang Weining knew that there was little hope, and he would have to face it sooner or later - he originally planned to just come to relax, but he didn't expect Bai Yuntian to have such an arrangement intentionally or unintentionally - maybe he should really ask, and he should not live up to his son's filial piety.

"About the genetic ...... of extraterrestrial creatures," just as Zhang Weining was thinking about how to speak, the Frenchman who called himself "Dr. Baudouin" suddenly said.

Zhang Weining knows some French, but his listening ability is not good, and he can't reach the level of communication, and Zhang Guoyang can't do it. However, the language barrier was an old problem 100 years ago, and it didn't exist in a society of 211X years – there were translation headphones.

"About the genetic ...... of extraterrestrial creatures", this sentence was transmitted to Zhang Weining's mind through a translation earphone.

He glanced at his son Zhang Guoyang - the genes of alien creatures - not long ago, Zhang Guoyang mentioned it to the old man at home, in Zhang Weining's opinion, this is "children's literature", a fantasy, a childish gimmick...... However, he is now certain that Dr. Baudouin did mention the words "extraterrestrial creatures."

The disappearance of country C is very strict, and its strictness is far beyond Zhang Weining's expectations - he also thought that country A is just an ordinary plague - however, there are still video materials popping up on the Internet, and the criticism rate is quite high, and the regulatory authorities cannot cover everything, so these videos are still circulating.

When he heard about the alien creatures, what came to Zhang Guoyang's mind was that he had seen those videos earlier, those unknown creatures...... It's like a movie or a documentary clip.

So, whether it is Zhang Weining or Zhang Guoyang, at this time, they don't know that what Dr. Baudouin is talking about is the things that appear in the video - it sounds more like drunken gibberish.

The people of country C are very good at echoing and don't know how to pretend to understand, so Dr. Baudouin and others did not notice the doubts in the eyes of Zhang Weining and his son, and talked loudly:

"Obviously, their technology is higher than ours, and their genes have been modified, perfectly modified...... Maybe it can solve the problem of telomere reduction. ”

"Yes, I believe that within 10 years, it can be realized, and it will be a huge market ......"

Solving the problem of telomere reduction? Zhang Weining naturally knows that this is one of the most likely ways for human beings to achieve immortality, solving the problem of telomere reduction, human cells can divide and regenerate an infinite number of times, and never age - of course, the nervous system contains cells that are not renewable, and the immortality of these cells has to be solved by other methods - compared with telomere gene optimization technology, Chen Guangbiao's brain-swapping surgery is simply primitive and crude, and it is not worth mentioning.

Zhang Weining's thoughts suddenly drifted a little, and the nameless fire in his heart burned again-the way to eternal life, really, within 10 years......

"So, no one wants country A to end and eliminate them." Dr. Baudouin said to everyone, and then smiled and took a sip of red wine, "The North American continent will eventually become a breeding farm, and the source material of the mutant gene will also be transferred from underdeveloped regions such as country C, Southeast Asia, and Africa to North America, the highest-end gene." ”

Zhang Weining saw that Dr. Baudouin was still smiling, as if they were not worried about the existence or destruction of North America, and the light in their eyes seemed to indicate that they saw new economic growth points—new technology, money, and profits—thrive in the midst of destruction and disaster.
