Chapter 7: World Secrets
The first military competition that attracted worldwide attention was the competition between the United States and the Soviet Union, and the two competitions were mainly divided into space exploration, military preparation, and modern science and technology, and this competition produced a lot of human wealth. The first human landing on the moon was also born out of this competition.
With the collapse of the Yalta system (a system centered on the two poles of the United States and the Soviet Union), the world presented a pattern of one superpower and many powers, but soon a great power rose from it, changed the pattern into two superpowers and many powers, and engaged in a second military competition with the United States, which attracted worldwide attention, and this country was China.
And this time the competition is no longer to explore the outside world, but to refocus on people, so that many unknown organizations have emerged, such as the hidden Chinese Dream Factory in Yat-sen University and the Dream Bioengineering Organization of Haff University in the United States.
Although they are all established in universities, even the students of the schools are not necessarily aware of their existence, because the activities of these organizations are carried out in secret, and only certain people have access to these organizations, which are affiliated with the state.
Although the two countries are competing, the other countries are also participating, and the level of human research on itself has reached an unprecedented level. The military contest was fought in secret, and only the state's top officials and test subjects knew about it, but the purpose of the contest was to transform a stronger human being.
In fact, the United States has already obtained the technology of genetic modification, since when, it can be traced back to the first person who landed on the moon to return from the moon, in fact, he did not find nothing, he found an incomplete alien corpse on the moon and brought it back to Earth.
The corpse was only the upper half of the body and had not withered, and surprisingly the alien was indistinguishable from a human, similar in ethnicity to that of an Asian. If it wasn't found on the moon, I thought it was human, after all, it was the first moon landing in human history.
Since the angular velocity of the Moon's revolution is the same as the angular velocity of its rotation, humans will never be able to see the far side of the Moon from the Earth, and American biologists speculate that this alien is likely to come from the far side of the Moon. Since then, American biologists have been frantically studying the alien wreckage, but found that although the alien is similar in appearance to humans, the brain is more than five times more developed than humans, and the physical functions are dozens of times that of humans.
The discovery of extraterrestrial creatures on the moon is destined to be a huge milestone in human history, but the American government did not choose to make it public, but chose to study it alone.
After years of frantic research, American biologists discovered that the alien wreckage was actually a mutant of humans, a discovery that once again shocked the American government. I didn't expect that human mutation could reach such an extent, that is, the first person to land on the moon was not an American, but may be an Asian, which made the US government pay more attention to the invasion and control of the Asian region.
After generations of conjectures and experiments by American biologists, the Americans have finally explored a way to modify human beings: extract DNA from alien wreckage, and make the corresponding retrovirus through a series of technologies, and inject the retrovirus into the human body, thereby changing the original DNA of human beings, in fact, making human genes closer to aliens.
But this is only the theoretical stage, and how to conduct human experiments has become a major difficulty for biologists. This was a no-brainer for the U.S. government, and it was initially proposed to use death row prisoners for experiments, but it was quickly rejected.
Although the failure of the experiment has little impact on American politics, if the experiment is successful, I am afraid that the behavior of the condemned prisoner is uncontrollable. In the end, it was decided to use terminally ill patients to conduct experiments, and the government was responsible for collecting terminally ill patients, and the collection must be approved by the patients themselves and their families, and the families of the patients who accepted them would receive a generous subsidy. The government claims that this is to conduct gene therapy experiments to help patients recover, but the chance of recovery is very low, and many patients think that they are receiving treatment until they die.
After countless generations of sacrifices, it is not a deliberate exaggeration of the time, the probability of succeeding in the transformation and surviving is too low, just when everyone wants to give up, a hero appears, and they successfully transform the first mutated human, that is, Superman. Perhaps Superman is not new to us, because it is easy to see in American comics, and it has even become a household name. In fact, Superman was indeed just a character in American comics at the beginning, but because the superhero in the hearts of the people symbolizes freedom, justice, and the American spirit, after obtaining the genetic modification technology, the American politician decided to transform the experimental subject into the superman in people's hearts.
Successful test subject Superman did learn to fly, even to his own surprise, but his flight was not instigated by wings like a bird, but through his super bouncing ability and ability to stay in the air.
All the abilities of this superman are about 10 times that of ordinary humans, and the limit is even immeasurable. Although the brain is not strengthened as it should be, it is close to the extraterrestrial wreckage in terms of physical functions, which also turns a new chapter in the history of human evolution.
While biologists were happily discussing how to improve the success rate of the experiment, Superman died of brain death two days after the transformation, and the life span of Superman's terminal illness assessment was still one year, biologists speculated that it was because the brain was weak and could not control the strong body functions, but it could not be verified.
So much manpower and material resources were wasted in exchange for only two days of superpower testing, which made the American government start to re-examine genetic modification technology, but they still did not make the results of the experiment public.
Later, for the sake of safety, American biologists re-experimented on other animals and plants, but found that even if other animals were successfully modified, their lifespans would become shorter, and as long as this problem was not overcome, American biologists did not dare to do human experiments again.
American biologists believe that as long as they do not disclose the secrets of aliens, human beings will not be able to explore the mystery of biological modification. Until the Englishman Ian Wilmatt successfully used cloning technology to clone Dolly the sheep, there were still 257 sheep cloned with Dolly, but only Dolly survived, which really became a milestone in human history, because the results of this experiment were made public all over the world.
The U.S. politicians are unhappy about this, and the biologists in their own country have not been able to make a living creature despite the advantages of alien resources (because the two-day superman really can't make the U.S. puff complacent).
The openness of cloning technology had caused the world to turn its attention back to living things themselves, and the idea of human cloning had germinated in people's minds, but the United States had rejected the idea of human cloning at a United Nations meeting. Nominally, because human cloning involves issues of ethics and morality and world stability, you can imagine that a clone army is equivalent to a death squad, and for the country, there is no consumption except for financial investment, which greatly shortens the time for cultivating warriors, but in essence, Americans do not want other countries to explore the mystery of the human body in depth.
Although the U.S. government opposes human cloning, they have long ordered their biologists to master this technology, and want to use human cloning as an experimental subject for modification technology.
At first, Jihuang just wanted to invade the intranet of Yatsen University to check the dynamics of admissions, but he didn't expect to find a secret website of the Chinese Dream Factory. Out of curiosity, he clicked in and opened an article casually.
If it weren't for that political secret mark, he would have thought he was reading a novel. I saw a small half of the article, and the emperor thought that it was not in vain that he spent a month to crack this website, but at this moment, the website suddenly collapsed, and no matter how much debugging could not enter, it is estimated that the website was transferred.
Jihuang immediately used the anti-tracking algorithm to clear his Internet path, after all, what he saw was a state secret, which was likely to lead to death. But even if he caused a murderous disaster, the Emperor did not regret it.
His heart began to stir because he had discovered the secrets of the world.
