Chapter 144: The Second Clone Crisis

Yang Meng seriously thought about whether there had been a problem as the sender of the message.

also from Xiao Yin, find the record of the information sent,

And even to be on the safe side,

He personally rushed to the place where the information device was located to check the original record of the time the message was sent.

After a series of examinations,

He made some self-analysis and judgment,

I think it's much less likely that he'll have a problem here

"So, it's only the Earth side that's in trouble?"

"But what's wrong with the earth?"

This made Yang Meng extremely puzzled.

"What is the reason why the Earth side cannot communicate directly with him about the affairs of the alien civilization?"

His communication with the Earth side is highly encrypted,

And as an individual, the content of his communication with the earth is also very restrictive.

There are basically no restrictions on what should be posted and what should not be posted.

"What restricts the content of information exchange between extraterrestrial civilizations?"

Many thoughts flashed in Yang Meng's heart,

For example, if there is a possibility of interception of any information channel,

Or the ground command center was hijacked, and so on.

But when you think about it, these reasons can't be reliable.

"Perhaps, the reason is hidden in twenty letters!"

Yang Meng's heart moved, and he wanted to continue to search carefully in the letter, but at this time, Xiao Yin's voice remembered in his ears:

"Please note that your physical condition is under pressure, and your brain and body organs are running under load, please adjust according to the health guidelines as soon as possible!"

Hearing Xiao Yin's voice,

Yang Meng reacted at this time, he had just woken up from 20 years of cryodormancy,

The body is still in a state of regulation,

And the abnormality of the information made him unconsciously forget the situation on his body.

Through Xiao Yin's reminder,

Yang Meng's thoughts paused, and the vague discomfort on his body was transmitted to his brain, and the dizziness in his head also affected his thinking somewhat.

"Take a break!"

On the long journey, time is a very sufficient thing for him,

Yang Meng floated to the equipment cabin,

He took the food out of the pantry and began to eat, all the while he looked out the porthole.

Outside the porthole, a dark red star came into his eyes,

That star is the Ross 128 galaxy,

The next goal he's going to go to,

This red dwarf star is smaller than Rutan's star.

And at this time he was only 2.7 light-years away from his destination.

Calculated at an average speed of light of 20%,

It will take him about 13.5 years to reach this system.

Of course, if you count the time wasted by the spaceship slowing down to make the galaxy,

It is estimated that it could take 15 years to enter the Ross 128 system......

Yang Meng floated while looking at the dark red star, and suddenly a thought suddenly occurred in his heart:

"Earlier the Earth hinted at me to go to the Ross 128 system, will there be some clues there?"

Yang Meng still wanted to think about it, but the tingling pain on his temples made him have to stop thinking.

"Some of the brains are overused!"

"Whatever it is, everything will be clear when you get to this galaxy!"

"The earth has to write me back,

Otherwise, you can only bring the light to the nearby Barnard system......

Yang Meng forcibly stopped his thoughts,

As a pioneer astronaut, psychological adjustment is a skill that must be mastered.

Otherwise, in the lonely journey, it is easy to suffer from some mental illness.

……

After eating food,

and solved some metabolic problems,

After that, they go to the improved gravity centrifuge to recover their body.

In the dormant frozen state,

Whether it is the function of bone hematopoiesis or the function of muscle cells, it is like pressing the pause button.

The weightless environment will not affect the health of astronauts in the cryo-dormant state.

And because of the weightless environment, there will be no problems caused by long-term bed rest.

And when the body's functions begin to recover,

Yang Meng needed to use the gravity equipment on the spaceship to ensure his health.

After experiencing gravity recovery,

He didn't rush to look for clues in the twenty communication data.

Instead, I went to sleep first,

As a professional astronaut, falling asleep quickly is also an essential skill in a noisy spacecraft environment.

In the astronaut training manual a hundred years ago,

Even if there is an air leak on the space station, in the case of other astronauts going to repair it,

The astronauts who have been replaced in shifts also have to fall asleep quickly in a short time.

But people's hearts are flesh and blood, even if they are professionally trained astronauts,

In the face of extreme environments, it can also be difficult to fall asleep,

However, at this time, as Xiao Yin, who is implanted in the chip, the role is revealed.

Although the information on the ground still worried him, with Xiao Yin's assistance, he quickly fell asleep.

Yang Meng, who fell asleep, did not have any nightmares.

And so time passed slowly......

Yang Meng, who is adrift in the universe,

There is no cycle of the sun and the moon, only the surrounding stars are twinkling slightly,

In this case,

What is a day?

What is One Night?

has long lost the concept,

As a pioneer astronaut, Yang Meng likes to call the time after he wakes up a new day.

At this time, the next day arrives,

Yang Meng follows a fixed schedule,

Check your body, eat, metabolize, and start checking the messages from the ground!

What has happened on Earth in the past 20 years is far from being seen in a day.

Moreover, Yang Meng believes that this information may contain some code information,

So he looked very closely,

The process of his browsing is not fast,

Fortunately, there is still some time before the body returns to normal and can enter the next low-temperature hibernation.

He is not short of time,

And just like that, time passed day by day.

Yang Meng tried to find something in this information.

however

During this time, he read sixteen pieces of information and still found nothing.

Although no earthly code has been found,

It made Yang Meng understand the changes in the solar system in the past ten years.

And these changes have also aroused some interest in Yang Meng,

More than ten years is not a long time, and it is not a short time.

But it is also enough for a short historical dynasty to go from prosperity to decline,

It was also enough for the Qin Dynasty to unify the six kingdoms, and then there was a precursor to collapse,

More than ten years is the youth of a generation,

It has been hundreds of years since Yang Meng left the solar system, and during this time, the internal changes of human beings have been very drastic.

Now, 100 years later,

The pattern of the solar system is completely different from that of a hundred years ago, and he can no longer understand many things.

Since the Grey Forces were expelled from the solar system,

The human race is gradually stabilizing

With the development of human communication technology, the solar system is a scene of peace and prosperity.

It's just in this scene

Under the elephant,

Yang Meng noted,

There are a large number of spontaneous human forces, and in the absence of finding a suitable habitable planet,

Trying to organize a large number of ordinary people to venture to other galaxies,

And the general public's reaction to going to other galaxies is also very positive.

If he is a professional astronaut, he can still understand the exploration of alien planets at the risk of danger.

But a large number of ordinary people have such behavior, which makes Yang Meng a little incomprehensible,

"For most ordinary human beings, the stability of life is the priority of survival, and if there is no disaster, there will be no large-scale displacement!"

"What drives ordinary humans to behave like this?"

Yang Meng noted that in the past 100 years, due to the development of controllable nuclear fusion, artificial organic matter, and other technologies,

Ordinary humans hardly need to worry about basic medical issues such as diet, housing and transportation.

Even because of the further development of gene technology and organ cloning technology, human beings will not be bothered by diseases.

According to the statistics of the major human forces, the average life expectancy of human beings has exceeded 100 years old.

And some of the rich and powerful who control resources can even live more than 150 years old,

If you are using low-temperature dormancy technology, the life span can continue to be extended.

In this case, the power of some forces has been in power for decades and will not be replaced.

In the case of carefreeness, human beings tend to lie down and live in their own world.

Won't take easy risks.

It's human nature,

With sufficient food, no external dangers, and the right to reproduce guaranteed, human beings living in this era are undoubtedly happy.

However, in the midst of this happiness, there are still some crises:

"The second clone crisis!" Yang Meng saw a new message in the 16th letter,

Although the gray forces have long been expelled from the solar system by human forces,

But what they left behind was "infinitely harmful!"

That's the simple and fast cloning technology that the gray forces once used.

This technology led to a cloning crisis in the human world decades ago.

This crisis is called "the first controllable crisis!"

And the cloning technology did not die out with the departure of the gray forces.

But in recent decades, it has become more widespread,

With the proliferation of this technology, it is only necessary to quietly find a website on the Internet that prompts security risks.

Download some illegal genetic data in it,

Then use 3D printing technology to print a simple culture tank.

Use fast cloning technology to clone all kinds of celebrities and virtual characters that you can't access at will, and implant instructions in them for your own use.

"This technology should be strictly forbidden!"

Seeing the flood of this technology, Yang Meng frowned a little,

And what made him even more chilling behind him was that in the forty years since he left Rutan Star,

The moral level of mankind seems to have experienced a huge moral decline to some extent.

"But why is this technology so proliferated?"

Yang Meng read this information carefully,

I also sighed helplessly in my heart,

This change is also the inevitable result of scientific and technological progress.

With the popularization of 3D printing technology,

Printers have become a very common device,

And there are always some people who have clear ideas, even if human beings solidify programs on printing equipment and restrict them from printing some illegal equipment.

But there are always ways to get around these restrictions.

Printing the equipment you want to print, the proliferation of 3D printing technology has also made the cloning technology uncontrollable.

At first some humans,

Just steal

Stealing genetic data in the hidden corners of their own homes, downloaded from the Internet,

Through gene editing, artificial organic matter, macromolecular chain printing and replication technology, to print out the genetic material,

Then, through the cloning culture tank, the genetic material is cloned into the person you want to clone for your own amusement.

With the further development of this technology,

There is a lot of chaos within humanity,

Compared to the chaos caused by the use of cloning technology by the gray forces,

This cloning crisis, which spontaneously emerged from within mankind, is difficult to quell.

"Could it be the clone crisis that caused humanity to leave the solar system for other planets?"

"But even if it's a clone crisis, it won't affect the ground command center to respond to alien civilizations to me!"

"Shouldn't that be the problem?"

Yang Meng thought for a moment,

Continuing to browse through the content of the following years,

And in the midst of these,

Yang Meng noticed that although the cloning crisis has had a great impact on human beings,

But in the end, it was pacified by the major forces,

After all, cloning is still very different from ordinary humans.

Especially in the case of the use of rapid cloning technology,

There will be many flaws in the clones,

The major forces of human beings have also used the characteristics of cloning technology to develop various testing equipment.

Under the detection of various detection equipment,

As soon as a clone appears, it will soon be discovered.

Moreover, Yang Meng also noticed that the methods of dealing with human clones this time were much more violent than the methods of the clone crisis caused by the gray forces before.

Although the correspondence is more euphemistic,

But Yang Meng can still see the bloodiness of the whole process between the lines,

Especially when the human forces discover the cloned human beings, they will carry out harmless dissolution, which makes Yang Meng see that this suppressive behavior may cause many incidents.

After all, clones can also have normal human thoughts and behaviors.

It is precisely because of such repressive behavior,

makes it difficult for clones to appear openly in the human world,

"But this approach will not solve the problem of human cloning at the root!"

Yang Meng can imagine,

In some hidden corners, far away from the planet of the world of human order, such technology can still be used,

Even on Earth,

As long as you keep the clones at home and don't let anyone find out, you can hide them.

After Yang Meng watched the entire process of the second clone crisis experienced by mankind,

Gently shook his head,

The third and fourth ...... were to be expected. The cloning crisis will also arise over time,

This is a side effect of scientific and technological progress on human beings, and it is also an inevitable thing, but such a thing,

has little relevance to the situation he is currently experiencing,

Yang Meng continued to look for some key information in the information of the earth,

And in addition to the anomalies caused by the clone crisis,

His mind returned to the anomalous thing he had seen before.

That's a lot of humans trying to leave the solar system.

In food, health problems do not need to worry,

And human beings can even secretly clone some beautiful characters who want to be cloned, use them as companions, slaves for their own amusement,

Coupled with a virtual network of consciousness that is comparable to the real world,

With the blessing of these technologies, it is also a normal phenomenon for a human being to stay at home for decades and not go out.

Even if they have the idea of leaving, how many people will give up with such excellent conditions?

Why did they travel to other planets?

Thinking of this,

Yang Meng confirmed again from the information he knew:

Humanity has not yet found a planet that is completely suitable for ordinary people to immigrate,

Although some Earth-like planets have been found around the Earth, there are still some extreme phenomena on those planets, which are not suitable for human immigration.

"So what is it that drives so many humans to venture out of the solar system?"
