The middle of the KEE Superbase, in the Senior Personnel Lounge.

"Professor Albert, there are about five hundred escaped clones gathered outside now, including a small team of the Black Awakening Party, although we have sent enough people to control the scene, but for the sake of safety, I suggest you follow me to Passage X first, so that you can evacuate at any time."

Scrooge stood at the door of the room, gently combed his handsome blonde hair with his hand, and set his eyes on Albert on the sofa.

Albert looked good, and his eyes were a little brighter than the previous days, but his mind was not on Scrooge, and he seemed a little indifferent to the question, but took off his glasses and said:

"Scrooge, why do you think people wear glasses?"

"Of course ... Of course, it's because I can't see it clearly. ”

Scrooge was a little baffled by this question, but he still didn't forget his business, and reminded again: "Professor, for the sake of safety, it's better to come with me first." ”

"Yes, if you can't see clearly, you naturally have to wear glasses, and glasses allow some people to get rid of visual defects and make them more perfect. But are such people still real human beings? Albert asked to himself.

"Of course, Professor, what's wrong with you? Almost half of the entire Federation wears glasses, and your words will annoy them. What's more, just a pair of glasses, can it affect the entire human population? Scrooge teased slightly.

"No, no, no, of course it doesn't affect, or it doesn't have enough."

Albert shook his head and said, "I just felt it." Let me ask you again, if a person is in a car accident and loses both legs and is replaced with artificial prostheses, is he still human? ”

"Of course!"

"If 50 percent of his limbs and organs are man-made, is he still human?"

"I guess so... No, it certainly is! Scrooge hesitated at first, then replied firmly.

"What if it's eighty percent or more?"

"This... I don't know about this. Scrooge thought for a long time, and finally replied with some depression.

"yes, even you don't know, will anyone else have an answer?"

At this time, Albert suddenly stood up and said with some chatter: "I've been wondering if there is any point in continuing our genetic mutation research for the past few days. Our original goal was to create better, more survivable humans, so we rewrote their genes and incorporated them into all sorts of codes that we thought were good, but the result? Are they still human? ”

"Of course they are! Professor, you initiated this plan, and the Federation has invested a lot of manpower, material and financial resources in it, even at the expense of violating the Constitution. At this time, you must not say such a thing! Scrooge suddenly became serious.

Albert glanced at Scrooge, slowly came to the window, and looked at the place where the riot was taking place in the distance. There, the rescued clones are fighting fiercely against a group of mutants and base guards under the leadership of Eijiro Oda, and the number of mutants is as high as forty or fifty!

"Stop kidding yourself, Scrooge. You look at the bottom, you look at the mutants, are they still human? Not only do the enemy see them as monsters, but even your men dare not touch them, they are being rejected by all humans! ”

Scrooge quickly moved in front of Albert, pointed out the window, and said, "No, Professor, I have the opposite opinion from you. I think they weren't accepted because they were too good. When one day, when they create their own glory, they will be accepted and loved by all, and all mankind will open a new page. ”

Facing Scrooge's feverish eyes, Albert said worriedly: "My dear Scrooge, it seems that you still don't understand the example I gave. These mutants with modified genetic information are essentially the same as those who are artificial organs all over their bodies, and although they have the ability to create brilliance, they do not belong to us real human beings. ”

Speaking of this, Albert's voice suddenly became low: "I sometimes even think that everything, prosperity and decline, is the immutable law of this world, and nothing can be immortalized. By forcibly 'sustaining the life' of the human race, we may not be helping it, but rather hastening its demise.

A series of plans such as extraterrestrial migration programs, genetic modification programs, and cloning research programs may become the 'black hand' that pushes humanity to extinction. ”

"No, Professor, humans can live forever, aren't you the best example of that!"

Scrooge's words made Albert fall into deep thought, and then he said with some self-deprecation: "You're right, Scrooge. I, who have lived for more than two hundred years, can indeed be considered immortal, and perhaps this time it will be the end of my life. ”

Seeing Albert's emotions suddenly fall to the bottom, Scrooge asked softly: "Professor, is it that your body is not suitable this time, so that you have so much... So many outlandish ideas? You are the hope of our entire humanity, so take heart! ”

Albert did not answer, and Scrooge continued: "If you do not want to go with me, then rest well in your room. Rest assured, even if the mutants are, as you say, not really human, their abilities are unquestionable, and with their help, these enemies will soon be cleared. ”

After Scrooge exited the room, Albert looked out the window again, looking at the mutants who were killing, not knowing what to think.

Just as the two in the room were having some "arguments", five figures crept into the chaotic scene below, and if Albert was lucky enough to see them, he would find that one of them looked very similar to himself.

Lu Ming and the five rushed over when they heard the sound, and when they were about to be caught up by several mutants behind them, they finally saw the clone army.

They wanted to fish in troubled waters and take the opportunity to get rid of the chasing soldiers behind them, but they were completely confused by the chaotic scene in front of them, clones, mutants, kamikaze clans, and base defenders were completely intertwined, forming a situation of "you have me, I have you".

As soon as the five of them arrived, they were completely dispersed by this turbulence, and Lu Ming found that he had lost contact with everyone after killing two guards and a mutant one after another, and at this time, a man with a long sword appeared in front of him.
