Chapter 982 We Can’t Reach the Stars
How could Ren Jie not know who Yang Hongxiu was? He was the one who developed genetic medicine to unlock the genetic lock for humans...
"So...the initial research on genetic medicine?"
Xing Ji did not deny it: "I did participate and borrowed some technologies stored in my database, but the person in charge is still Yang Hongxiu. Unfortunately...she is no longer here..."
There was a look of nostalgia in her eyes.
Jiuye on the side said: "Actually, the disaster on mankind was extremely serious during the cataclysm. The world's population dropped sharply, and a large number of scientific researchers and technical personnel failed to survive."
"That disaster can be said to have directly pushed mankind from the Industrial 4.0 era back to the steam era. Daxia was a wasteland, and a lot of precious knowledge and scientific research results were burned."
"The reason why humans can rekindle the fire of human civilization so quickly in ruins is that some of the technologies and knowledge in the Star Epoch database have been of great help, from Spark cities, nuclear fusion reactors, matchsticks, etc..."
Ren Jie got goosebumps all over his body. It can be said that the existence of Xing Ji is the life-saving straw that pulls mankind out of the ruins.
"Then since her database retains a large amount of knowledge, technology, and scientific and technological achievements, why not apply it in Daxia's scientific and technological field?"
Just the various things in these star bases are enough to shock Ren Jie. If this technology can be used by humans...
Jiuye spread his hands and explained patiently: "Due to technological gaps, some of the technologies possessed by Xingji are too advanced and have exceeded the understanding of today's humans."
"Compared with her level, the technological level of human society today is equivalent to the Stone Age!"
"It's like if you gave the blueprints and technology of a nuclear bomb to humans in the Stone Age, could they make a nuclear bomb?"
Ren Jie swallowed: "Understood... They specified that it can't be rubbed out, but I can rub it out!"
Jiuye covered her face: "This is like asking today's human beings to use their current productivity to build a spaceship and stellar power furnace that can make space jumps."
"It's impossible to create anything at all..."
Ren Jie sighed: "Sure enough... productivity is the lifeline of a race."
"The existing ones in the star base..."
Xing Ji smiled and said: "Most of them are dug out of the ground and ready-made. Some of them can still be used after some repair. Just like the body I am using now, it was also pieced together."
"And... my database was severely damaged, causing me to forget a lot of things, so I need the data branch in the Endless Tower. I hope it contains the fragments I want."
Ren Jie was stunned: "So...is this the meaning of the existence of the Guild of Stars?"
Each mission point of Guild of the Stars includes tasks such as purchasing ancient treasures, ancient relics, ruins, and stone carvings at high prices.
Even useless little things can often be sold at high prices. There is even a profession of scavengers in the red clay restricted area.
Does the Guild of Stars want these things just to collect things needed by Star Ji and complete the database for her?
Xingji shook his head: "That's just one of them. As for my fundamental purpose of establishing the Guild of Stars, I want to give this world a chance. Maybe... it's also the last chance."
"But... I'm useless, at least now... I haven't accomplished anything..."
Ren Jie tilted his head: "An opportunity?"
This answer made Ren Jie feel confused...
Xing Ji said lightly: "Since the recovery of spiritual energy, the great cataclysm has occurred, the racial war has begun, and the human race, the demon race, the spiritual race, the demon race, and those with the divine contract have been divided..."
"Each ethnic group defends its own territory. Conflicts, violence, interest disputes, endless wars, and endless fighting make the world fragmented and chaotic..."
"Ren Jie...what do you think the ending of this drama that has lasted for two hundred years will be when it finally comes to an end?"
Ren Jie was startled, then smiled bitterly: "I don't know... who can tell clearly what will happen in the future?"
He has never considered this issue, and even Ren Jie doesn't know where his end point is.
Xingji's eyes were full of emotion, and he said worriedly: "The end of the war... is destruction. Maybe many years later, when the era comes to an end, we will also lie on that red land, buried by time...
"
"Such a war... is meaningless..."
"When you look at the world from your own standpoint, your line of sight will always be blocked and you won't be able to see the reality. But when you look down at the world from a commanding height, maybe everything will become clearer..."
"Do you still remember the slogan of Guild of Stars?"
Ren Jie raised his eyebrows: "Why don't you remember?"
"Let's head towards the direction where the stars shine. May we shine like stars and turn into an indelible mark..."
Xingji looked serious...
"But if this continues, we will never be able to reach the stars in our lifetime..."
As she spoke, she raised an index finger in front of Ren Jie, then raised her other hand and cracked it hard against her index finger.
The index finger clicked and then broke.
Ren Jie couldn't help but have questions all over his head, and then, the broken finger recovered.
I saw her stretching out her fingers one by one, then moving her five fingers inward, clenching them into fists.
Then the two clenched iron fists hit the center heavily!
"Boom!" There was a loud noise.
The two fists colliding together produced brilliant sparks and even a sonic boom.
Ren Jie smiled bitterly:
"I know what you mean, but you should know that under the current situation, making a fist... is impossible!"
Xing Ji said:
"Clenching a fist... is the meaning of the existence of the Stars Guild, and I... am also working hard for it..."
But the reality is that Daxia has internal and external troubles, and the conflicts between various ethnic groups are becoming more and more intense. This is a fact that cannot be changed by one person.
I saw Ren Jie taking a deep breath: "Xing Ji... You come from the forgotten history of the human race. You must know many unknown secrets, right?"
"What is the truth about this world? What is the reason for you to do this?"
Ren Jie has asked many people this question, but no one has given him an answer.
Xingji murmured: "I have been sleeping for too long... I can only understand a little bit about what happened after my death by searching for data libraries left in various places..."
"I used to have many good friends, but now... they are all gone. I even forgot their appearance and names..."
"This world... is unfamiliar to me. I don't know why the human race has fallen here, let alone what the truth of the world is today..."
Ren Jie frowned, did even Xing Ji say that?
Linyuan also said that today's human race is a "declined human race"...
From today's point of view, this is indeed the case. Such a terrifying level of technology and artificial intelligence actually exists in mankind's forgotten past?
How powerful were humans in the past?
What have they gone through? That led to a historical rift... and the decline to this point...
Xing Ji's eyes turned: "Ren Jie... have you ever thought that every time we look at the night sky at night, the stars we see are actually a false starry sky?"
Ren Jie:???
