The headquarters base of the Evolutionary Alliance is still located underground in New York City, under the cover of this city of millions and nearly tens of millions of people, there is no possibility of the basic mountain being attacked by weapons of mass destruction, which is a decision made by Bruce.

After the last time the Apocalypse broke into the ship's headquarters, causing heavy losses to the Evolutionary Alliance, the base was activated again, and the decision was made that it would never be relocated. Because the spaceship flying in the air means that Aoshi is too ostentatious, especially a group of ordinary evolutionaries who don't have much combat power working in the spaceship are easy to be served by others.
Deep underground, in a sealed laboratory, the security level here is the highest, there are two strong types of evolutionaries guarding the door at all times, and there is also the most advanced scanning system, this is the root of the evolutionary, because here is the course of continuous research on the genetic decline of the evolutionary. The course is now led by Charles, who has inherited all of his parents' research. Over the years, Charles has been in this laboratory and his school, and he will basically not be seen anywhere else. This is a man fit to do research, not a guy fit to be a leader. There is an almost stubborn notion of equality in his character, which may have something to do with his ability to feel the darkness and pity of the world.
So now he immersed himself in research, and the school was largely handed over to Lasereye Scott, and now this steady middle-aged man became Charles's successor. Now their research has reached a critical juncture.
Each test tube is loaded with fragments of the X gene stripped from the genes of the evolutionary, and these are the most primitive research results. The X gene is separated and then fused with other genes in an imaginary way, in order to obtain the direction of existence that occurs when the X gene is fused with other genes. As time draws closer to the new century, the activity of the X gene becomes less and less, and almost most of these genes fall into a deep sleep, and even the genes that have just been taken from the evolutionary will become useless inert genes in a short time.
Of course, the Evolutionary Alliance may lack anything, but there will definitely be no shortage of evolutionary genes, since the seventies, the Evolutionary Alliance has been the only evolutionary organization in this world, and all the evolutionaries in the world have been collected, so although they have to re-extract every time, they will not lack test samples.
And on this day, a new test sample was delivered, and this work continued every day, which was already a mechanical work. Because there are so many species on Earth, they experimented one by one, hoping to find the kind of stimulus that could make the X gene reactive.
This is another direction that they have carried out after being fused with similar genes of the copycats but ultimately proved to be impossible, that is, to find the key factor that stimulates the activity of the X gene, so that as long as the X gene is reactivated, the existence of the evolutionary can be continued.
This direction is much more popular than the previous fusion into other genes and then implanted, because it is uncertain whether they will be evolutionaries after becoming other genes. After all, the changes caused by a little change at the genetic level are completely different.
I don't know what kind of gene fragment it sent this time. Charles received the sample and tested it as usual. After all, no one can say which of the various genes can stimulate the X gene, so he needs to break down all the gene fragments and experiment little by little.
This experiment was boring, after all, I don't know how many times I had done experiments with new genetic samples, and I was initially full of hope, but now I am gradually numb. Charles felt that he might not see the day when the evolutionaries flourished again, and that the awakening of evolutionaries over the years was less and less, and this was the most obvious change, because their genes gradually fell into a deep sleep.
After the paternal genes fall asleep, they will either lose the ability to inherit, that is, they will become infertile, or they will directly form the genes of ordinary humans and pass them on, anyway, the X gene will not be inherited in the next generation.
But when it was time to analyze, Charles suddenly found that the genetic sample sent this time was very unusual. It wasn't like any genetic sequence he'd ever seen, though it looked like a normal double helix on the surface. But when it was subdivided again, what we finally got was that there was a weird green gene molecule in each gene sequence.
This gene molecule is very domineering, and it seems to be extremely contagious, and this infection is very familiar to Charles: "This is ...... It's gamma rays! Oh my God, someone can survive gamma rays! It's simply incredible. ”
Speaking of which, the Evolutionary Alliance has also thought of using cosmic rays to reactivate the X gene once again. However, the results obtained during the experiment were not ideal, and the X gene was easily destroyed by the cosmic rays, like the genes of most organic life.
What does it mean to be destroyed? It means the death of life, and the collapse of genes directly turns into a puddle of rotten meat. It's like Dr. Pym's Pym's particles, but the Pym's particles are more subtle, and they act at the molecular and even atomic level. Charles had to admire Dr. Pym, whose research had initially touched on the dimensional level.
When the deepest layer of this gene was peeled off, suddenly a piece of emerald green appeared in front of Charles's eyes, just like a magnificent glass jadeite, although in the United States Emperor jadeite is not what they like, Europe and the United States like diamonds, gold and silver, etc., they do not understand the culture of jade, which is more cultural atmosphere in the Celestial Dynasty China.
But that doesn't stop Charles from being excited about the emerald green chain of genes: if this thing can survive gamma rays, then there should be something extraordinary, and there is a chance that it will stimulate the X gene and make it reactive.
When Charles thought of this, his heart, which had become numb, burned with hope again, and at this time, he didn't care that it was now off work, and that he hadn't eaten since morning, but started his own experiment.
"Charles, it's time to eat!" Raven and Charles's wedding was held in the late seventies, but this time I don't know if Charles suddenly lost his fertility or what, neither of them has children yet, Raven also followed Charles into this research room as his life assistant.
"Have you eaten? Wait a minute, I'll finish this one and come back! Charles said.
"If you don't eat, you don't have the strength to work! Come here, the experiment can be done at any time, we still have time, don't we? Raven said this a little muffly, indeed they still have time, but when is this time? According to the conclusions put forward by Glass Val in the seventies.
Evolutionaries still have fifty years of genetic activity, which means they can last until 2020, but this time is definitely inaccurate based on the number of evolutionaries they have recently received.
Because at the peak of the past, hundreds of evolutionaries awakened within a year, and the total number of evolutionaries in the world was about 20,000 to 30,000. However, since the nineties, the number of awakened people has dropped to below triple digits every year, and the number of deaths has also risen, which has caused a negative population growth of the evolutionary.
The most recent count was at the end of last year, at the end of '98, when the number of evolutionaries had fallen below 15,000. This is already a super dangerous number. According to this trend, after five or six years there will be no awakening of evolutionary beings, and in another twenty to thirty years there will be extinction of evolutionary beings.
So they still have time, but this time is definitely running out, and when there is no new evolutionary awakening to replenish it, they will usher in the end of the world. As a result, they completely disappeared from the earth, and all this was definitely not something that the Evolutionary Alliance could bear, and they had to speed up.
And Charles's experiment this time brought hope, he saw something to save the evolutionary, this gene that can survive gamma rays, there is definitely a possibility that the activity of the X gene will be stimulated again.
"Raven, I see it, I see a light...... It's true...... A beam of light that belongs to the Evolver! God always opens a window when he closes the door, and I have now found the edge of that window! Raven was surprised by Charles's excitement, she hadn't seen Charles like this for a long time, just like Charles thirty years ago, the passionate teenage genius.
"Charles, what did you say you found?" At that moment, Bruce appeared in the lab, and Logan followed him, as well as the other children who went back to school.
The reason why this operation sent these little guys over was not only Bruce's impromptu training, but also their graduation assessment. Although they are all over the age standard, there is nothing worthy of the evolutionaries in these years, so although they have completed their studies, they have not completed enough credits in terms of evolutionary ability.
This time, they finally finished the credits, and now they are going back to prepare for graduation. This is Scott's unique way of teaching.
West Chester, Vizel Manor, the Phantom Cats walked out through the flickering spatial door, and a man with red quartz glasses stood at the school gate to greet them.
