043, the sun (ask for reading!) )
During the dinner night, Azir heard about it from Vichyna.
But in fact, she didn't know much about the specifics of Nasus and his wife.
"At that time, your father and I were not born yet, and your grandmother told me about it, but she was not a witness, so she didn't know much." Vishina said.
Azir flicked his plate, the delicious food didn't whet his appetite, and he repeated a phrase: "In those days, people preferred to call genetic technology superpowers. ”
In terms of genetic technology, Shurima has always been far superior to other scientific research projects, and this was only felt more clearly after Azir returned from studying in Kamigawa.
While some other macro-level technologies were only in their infancy, the micro-level technology here was booming, and those scientists were able to make those black snakes grow their bodies again and even evolve arms and wings in a short period of time just by relying on some of their own research and theories.
It stands to reason that if genetics and microbiology can do this, then some of the energy engineering and other technologies that are closely related to this should have a corresponding level.
But the current situation is indeed a situation where gene technology is dominant, and Azir is a little strange.
As for what Nasus had heard about from Vichyna when he was younger, he wasn't curious about other people's privacy, and he didn't expect that Shurima's past would have such a chaotic history.
In the era of the decline of the royal family, the princes of each division had their own military forces, and these armies had genetically modified beings that they had cultivated with great resources—in the words of the time, superpowers.
These superpowers played a great role in the melee, and the royal family had to organize their own genetic technology department in order to maintain stability, and they researched their own genetically modified lives to achieve the purpose of counterparting.
Asitaya's mother is one of the best among them, no, if according to Vishina, Taya's ability can be said to be the strongest among them, and people from the same family as Taya, after they have obtained genetic technology to modify their own genes, their ability is also far superior to others.
Asitaya's mother, Taya, died young, and almost as many people from the same family as her, lived to only half the age of the Shurima.
Azir was surprised by this, but he knew very little about it, and all the past seemed to have been buried by the wind and sand, which had turned into an endless desert after years of precipitation, and could no longer dig up anything.
And for those so-called superpowers of a bygone era, Azir thought of Kamigawa's super soldiers, as if their role was the same, to fight for their own power.
The only difference is that Kamigawa's super-soldiers are still invincible in the universe, and Shurima's super-powers have long since dissipated with that forgotten turbulent era.
"Are all those technologies banned? I've never heard anything about it...... I haven't even read about superpowers in books. ”
Azir recalls all the books about Shurima that he had access to since he was a child.
"Yes, it was banned, and after the royal family regained the high ground of power, the technology of genetic modification was banned from being used on the human body," Vicina said. ”
Azir expressed his understanding that if the existence of those superpowers is only for the sake of the power struggle of the major forces, then when one of the forces is stabilized, these forces that can threaten the rule do not need to continue to exist.
After dinner, Azir continued to look through the information, eager to know the history of Shurima's genetic technology, which was far beyond its time.
The Ascendant project he has studied has made initial progress.
In fact, the Ascendant Project is essentially a super genetic technology, and one of its inspirations is Kamigawa's super soldiers.
And when Azir knew that similar technology had existed in Shurima's own territory, he couldn't help but have the heart to explore, and if he could figure out the reason, he might be able to take the plan to land the Ascension Project one step further.
Maybe the time he expected would be greatly shortened, maybe dozens or even tens of generations could be completed?
However, the result was not what Azir expected.
Shurima's genetic technology seems to have flourished all of a sudden.
Tracing its history, there was once a little-known scientist whose research direction was in the direction of genetics, but the highest level of research that could be achieved at that time was to explore the internal structure of microorganisms or chromosomes.
I don't know when, for some reason, that geneticist suddenly became famous, and his research direction in genetics suddenly went to a level beyond the times, and after him, he started the glory of the entire Shurima gene technology.
After flipping through the thin materials, Azir leaned his head back in his chair, rubbing his slightly aching forehead, and the fatigue gradually eased on the soft backrest.
The two-way progress of government affairs and scientific research projects for such a long time really made him feel tired.
The golden scepter flashed through his mind again, the one that Asithaya had taken him to see that day.
"This is a miniature controller that I made using the information on the gold disc provided by Your Majesty."
Asitaya's cheeks were sunken than before, but when he introduced him to Azir, there was a look in his eyes that didn't match his mental state.
"Control or something?" Azir asked him.
"Your Majesty, please come with me."
Asithaya led Azir to the highest platform, where the scepter was encased in a transparent container and sent to the very center of the entire laboratory via a teleporter, where a dozen data cables were connected to the transparent container.
The whole process was long and the lab was stuffy, but Azir waited patiently for Asitaya to present the results of his research over the past few years.
What he saw on that occasion proved that his choice was not wrong, and Asitaya did not disappoint him, he was indeed a genius.
After a long time of conquering, perhaps in terms of stellar technology, there is no one left in Shurima to get out of Asitaya.
On that day, instead of connecting the stars in the distant sky, he created a sun himself.
After the golden scepter was secured, Asitaya handed Azir a pair of sunglasses, and he noticed that everyone was consciously wearing pure black lenses.
The floor cracked and ran to both sides, and finally retracted into the wall, and the massive silver-gray curved frame swirled and rose, and everyone rushed to the top platform, where another shield extended from the middle level to isolate the top and bottom.
As the visible stream of energy wound around the scepter, smoke rose from those connected cables, and huge energy surges formed loops from above, eventually converging onto the silver-gray frame.
After that, the silver-gray frame spun at a rapid pace, and at first there was only a small light in the center, and then a moment of sparkling brilliance.
Its brilliance will illuminate everyone present, and no shadow can hide it, and in this scorching but glorious light, the scientists of Shurima burst into ecstatic cheers.
And they really succeeded.
It was the first recorded artificial sun in Shurima's history.
That day is also a day that will go down in history.
Because Emperor Azir himself admitted that it was the appearance of this sun that marked Shurima's official entry into the era of the Ascendant.
