049, Solar Crisis Chapter II

049. Two plans

Recently, Azir has been focusing on two things.

The first was the restoration of the gold disc.

The second is that a probe was recently sent to the star.

He had been working on the analysis of Ulu metal for years, and it had taken him a lot of time to study this non-biological substance, but he was finally able to make progress in this area.

The Academy of Sciences has also put the analysis of the internal composition of Ulu metal on the agenda, and it is believed that it will not be long before research can be begun on refining the pure Ulu alloy, a technique entirely mastered by the Shurima people.

Unless this technology is acquired from other civilizations, it is not destined to be an easy task, but it is worth the time investment.

Azir finished sorting out the paperwork in his office, made himself a cup of coffee, and sent a goodnight message to Vichyna.

But the old mother's answer made him realize that it was already noon.

Azir looked at his watch, only to realize that he hadn't slept all night, he went to the window and opened the curtains, although the red light also brought warmth, but it was not to be liked.

At this time, people have developed the habit of drawing curtains during the day and using imitations of ordinary solar lamps to illuminate them.

Azir closed the curtains again, and after his spirit was detached from his work, he felt the feeling of an empty stomach that had been ignored, and it was only then that there was a knock on the office door.

"Enter." Azir said.

"Your Majesty!"

Entered, a tall young man, who first saluted respectfully, and then looked at Azir with expectant eyes.

"What's wrong, Aatrox?"

Azir laughs and says that he has always been gentle with Shurima's children.

"I heard that His Majesty is going to start the extraction of solar energy in the near future, and another probe will be launched soon?"

Aatrox said this, as if he was expecting something, but the hand that squeezed the corner of his coat revealed his nervousness.

Azir walked to the door and said: "I don't think it's a secret, the announcement was issued a few days ago, and in a week the astronauts will be launching with the probe." ”

Aatrox's gaze was always on him: "So it's really true!" Can I go up with it? ”

This was the twentieth year after the solar crisis, during which countless lives were born, and the children born in this era saw the sun always red, and they were curious about the golden sun in the mouths of adults, and thought it was just a hilarious bedtime story.

Aatrox is one of them.

He had always wanted to see the star in its entirety, not because he was curious about the unknown with the little kid, but because he wanted to see what it was that scared the Shurima people.

He didn't think there was anything terrible about a big ball, there was nothing in the world that could scare Aatrox.

Azir paused his hand on the doorknob and looked at Aatrox with a smile on his face: "Did your companion tell you something again?" ”

"Hmm...... They said that this selection of astronauts will also be among us, after all, our physical fitness has long surpassed that of ordinary people. ”

Aatrox scratched his head a little embarrassed, then looked at Azir with a firm gaze, and said very seriously: "Your Majesty, I want to go to heaven!" ”

"Uh...... Your Majesty, why are you looking at me like that? ”

"Don't you stop talking......"

"Okay...... Am I being cheated again? ”

Azir thought about how to explain it, children of this age are very naughty as Ascension volunteers, but Aatrox is very sensible, obedient and not mischievous, and is the favorite child of all researchers, including Azil.

"Aatrox, you have to know that flying into space doesn't mean that you have good physical fitness, but you have to go through a considerable period of training."

Azir saw that Aatrox was a little depressed, so he comforted him and said, "Those astronauts have gone through a long period of training, but your spirit of exploration is still commendable, and I promise you that when you grow up, you can become an astronaut...... However, perhaps many things were different in those days and now. ”

"Your Majesty...... I just want to see where my dad died......" Aatrox said, bowing his head.

Azir rubbed his head, not knowing how to speak for a moment, he comforted him and said, "Your father is a hero, son, sooner or later the whole of Shurima will know about it, I promise." ”

In fact, regarding the matter of Yan Shou, Azir had considered whether the current state of society could be announced, but Aatrox rejected him directly after learning of his idea.

Although he is still young, he can clearly feel the comments in people's hearts, it is not the fear of the universe in the past, but the panic after the distortion of the sun, maybe not as serious as before, but if he learns that his planet has been invaded by space pirates, something bad may happen.

Aatrox also had his own plans, and he told Azir that in the future, when his name became known to the Shurima people, he would personally tell the Shurima people about it.

Azir could sense in this child that if he grew up, he would become a noble warrior, and as his name suggested, the first warrior of Shurima.

"Why don't you go eat together? I was just finished working and was a little hungry. Azir sent out an invitation.

Aatrox readily agreed, he had a natural affinity for the Emperor, and did not feel that His Majesty was as condescending or domineering as he was in the TV series.

Azir has always been very close to the people, and in fact, the image of the emperor in some of Shurima's literary works has also been influenced by him a lot.

Along the way, there were people who cared for Azir's luggage, and Aatrox strutted like a guard, and that serious appearance made His Majesty a little can't help laughing.

After all, he hasn't experienced the training of the army, and the way he walks is all imitation, a bit nondescript, forget it, it's already good if he doesn't go along anyway.

In this base, there are more than two hundred children about the same age as Aatrox.

Recently, Azir began to study Uru Metal because of the continued breakthroughs of the Ascendant project, and some of the genes of the Shurima people have been able to gain some power through the energy circuits of the solar disk, but they are not Ascendants, just similar to those who have been genetically modified to gain superpowers in the past.

There are still cracks in the energy circuit of the current golden disk, and the Ascension Ritual cannot be performed until Azir completes the upgrade.

However, in the past twenty years, Shurima has also completed a leap, the combination of genetic technology and the data in the golden disc has brought Shurima a group of local "super soldiers", of course, it is certainly not comparable to the people of Kamigawa, but it is enough for Shurima to establish a space force.

Yes, most of these genetically modified fighters have been transferred to the Space Force in Shurima's outer space, and they are still in the training and experimental stage, after all, they do not have an exact enemy yet.

Just take precautions.

In charge of the project was Cledot, who, after being treated, actively learned about the genetics from Azir, and is now a genius scientist who is now a major leader of the Ascendant project.

It was she who proposed to experiment with the latest advances in a group of children, and because she had subjectively experienced the side effects of genetic modification, Credo was very careful before considering the feasibility of this method, until she was completely sure of the stability of the solar disk.

While these children have gained superhuman strength, they are also being taught the most advanced concepts, and if nothing else, they will become the mainstream warriors of the next era, or the leadership level.
