Although he knew that Shen Qiao's words had no other meaning, Long Jiu felt strange no matter what he heard, as if he was scolding her.
Long Jiu smacked his lips unhappily, and said lightly, "Didn't I tell you at noon?"
Shen Qiao swallowed, thinking that I had to believe it. Regardless of whether he believed it at the time or not, he believed it now anyway. After all, he saw it with his own eyes, so he had to believe it.
Realizing that he was still sitting on the ground, Shen Qiao struggled to get up, but his legs were still a little weak, so he hurriedly sat on the chair as soon as he got up, fearing that his legs would become weak and he would fall to the ground again. Went up.
After finally sitting firmly, Shen Qiao looked at Long Jiu anxiously and asked cautiously: "Are you really Long Jiujiu?"
Long Jiu gave him a faint look and asked, "What do you think?"
he thinks?
Of course Shen Qiao felt that she was no longer Long Jiujiu. No matter how talented Long Jiujiu was, it would be impossible for her species to change.
And looking at Xiao Tingyun's calm look, it was obvious that he had known it for a long time, but thinking about it, Shen Qiao still remembered the gentle look on Xiao Tingyun's face while holding the little silver dragon in his hands.
Looking at Uncle Gui sitting across from him, Shen Qiao finally understood the meaning of the title 'Your Highness'. He had always known that Uncle Gui was a 'Longjiujiu' person, but he had secretly said so before. I have wondered how 'Longjiujiu' managed to recruit this professor of biology and genetics to her, since this person is her 'own' person.
Another idea flashed in Shen Qiao's mind, "The commander-in-chief also knows?"
Long Jiu nodded, "I know."
Shen Qiao quietly breathed a sigh of relief for some reason, but she was thinking that it was normal for the commander to know. Otherwise, why would he be so relieved this time and let her go to the outer star field to grab things? It must be that the commander knew her details, and he Knowing that she has the ability to snatch back such precious energy from the alien races in the outer space.
Regarding the question of whether Long Jiu was a human or not, Shen Qiao was not too entangled. Regardless of whether Long Jiu was a human or a dragon, it was still on their side, and Xiao Tingyun clearly acted like he had fallen into her trap. If Xiao Tingyun, the person next to him, didn't care, then there was no need for him, an outsider, to care.
Moreover, that is a dragon!
Although mankind has entered the interstellar age, and there is no distinction between countries in the previous earth era, Shen Qiao does have the blood of the ancient China. As a descendant of this blood, he has a natural affinity for the legendary dragons. closeness.
Every son and daughter with Chinese blood has a love for dragons that is deeply ingrained in their DNA.
Shen Qiao, who finally recovered, looked at Long Jiu with intense eyes. He really had too much curiosity to ask, but now the housekeeping robot, which had been busy in the kitchen for a long time, started to serve the dishes. , so Shen Qiao could only suppress those curiosity.
The cooking skills of the housekeeping robots here are quite good, and Xiao Tingyun and Prime Minister Gui were feeding them constantly. Long Jiu ate without even raising his head.
There were four people at the table. Except for Shen Qiao who ate absent-mindedly because he was holding something in his mind, the other three people present all ate to the satisfaction of both guest and host.
After the meal, the four of them moved to the living room.
After the housekeeping robot made tea for them, it ran to the kitchen again.
Long Jiu leaned against Xiao Tingyun, her eyes half-closed as if she was sleepy after eating. She yawned lazily and said, "Uncle Gui, you can say it now. You have spent this afternoon What was found in the laboratory?”
Speaking of this, Prime Minister Turtle immediately became energetic. He put down the tea cup in his hand, picked up the pile of reports by his legs, and said: "The body data of the corpse has been analyzed. They are called biochemical weapon bodies. This name is correct. Judging from the analysis of their body data, they are indeed not human beings. Their genes have been fused with genes from other organisms, and even most of them have replaced human genes."
Prime Minister Turtle handed the report in his hand to Xiao Tingyun and Shen Qiao, and continued: "But what kind of biological genes did they fuse with? Because there are no samples, I don't know. But what is certain is that with It doesn’t matter that there are other alien races in the Abyss.”
"Um?"
Xiao Tingyun and Shen Qiao had surprised looks on their faces at the same time. After all, they had always suspected that the genetic fragments of the Abyssal Clan were added to these biochemical weapon bodies when they were transformed.
But now Prime Minister Turtle says it has nothing to do with the Abyssal Clan, not only the Abyssal Clan, but also other alien races?
Long Jiu glanced at the analysis report in Xiao Tingyun's hand. After just one glance, he realized that he couldn't understand it at all. Long Jiu simply stopped reading, "Does it require a sample to analyze it?"
"Theoretically, this is the case." Prime Minister Turtle weighed: "But if there is a quantum computer, coupled with the Turing system, it should be able to decipher the unknown gene fragments fused in their genes."
The empire has a quantum computer, and it is not impossible to get one. What is difficult is the Turing system, because the Turing system is on the Imperial Capital Planet. For the Star Luo Empire, the Turing system is the 'heart' of the entire empire. It is responsible for the entire empire's network. Once there is a problem with the Turing system, the entire empire's network will be paralyzed. For the empire, it is equivalent to losing its minions and protection.
Even if Xiao Tingyun is the emperor, he cannot easily bring the Turing system from the Imperial Capital Star to the Academy Star.
It was precisely because Prime Minister Turtle knew this that he felt embarrassed when he said this.
Xiao Tingyun was silent for a moment and asked: "Do you want to use Turing because you suspect that their genes are fused with ancient biological gene fragments that once existed and then disappeared?"
The power of the Turing system is not only that it supports the network of the entire empire, but also that it records many things that once existed but are now lost.
Prime Minister Gui smiled when he heard this, "That's true." After saying that, he looked at Long Jiu and said with a smile: "Your Highness, the ability of the biochemical weapon body you brought back should be related to strength, right?"
Long Jiu recalled it carefully, and then nodded: "Yes, that guy is indeed from the power system. When he was in the safety fortress of the sixth galaxy, he punched through an A-type battleship."
"That's right." Prime Minister Turtle clapped his hands and said: "When I analyzed his body data, although I found that his gene chain was fused with gene fragments from several unknown organisms, other gene fragments could not be analyzed because there were no samples. came out, but there was a gene fragment in it, and I analyzed it."
Shen Qiao heard this and asked curiously: "What is it?"
Prime Minister Turtle smiled at him, but did not answer. He just asked Long Jiu: "Your Highness, do you still remember a kind of shrimp in our world? It looks weird, but the shell is very hard, and it can even prick your hands."
After being described by Prime Minister Turtle in this way, Long Jiu's mind quickly flashed through several kinds of sea shrimps from all over the world. Finally, she blinked her eyes and seemed to be sure of something, but not quite sure. She hesitated and said: "Is that what you said?" Is it Pipi shrimp?"
"Yes, that's it." Prime Minister Turtle nodded with a smile.
Long Jiu's face was distorted, and he said in disbelief: "So, you mean that the gene fragment of the Pipi Shrimp was fused into that guy's gene chain???"
While Long Jiu and Prime Minister Gui were talking, Xiao Tingyun and Shen Qiao on the side had already opened their personal terminals and started searching for what Pipi Shrimp was on the Star Network.
It’s no wonder they don’t know. After all, things like Pipi shrimps were only found on the home planet back then. Since humans left the home star and took root in the universe, even if there are shrimps on the planet they live on now, there are other shrimps. seafood, but it is still very different from that on the home planet.
However, when the two of them finally found the picture and introduction of Pipi Shrimp in the Star Network search.
Xiao Tingyun: "."
Shen Qiao: "."
What is this ugly thing? !
Shen Qiao enlarged the hologram in the Star Network search, then swiped it to the middle of several people, and said in shock: "Then the gene chain of the biochemical weapon body is fused with the gene fragment of this thing? Are you sure this is not funny?"
Prime Minister Turtle glanced at him inexplicably, "What? Do you look down on Pipi Shrimp?"
Of course Shen Qiao looked down on him. Not to mention Shen Qiao looked down on him, even Xiao Tingyun had a look that was hard to explain.
But Prime Minister Turtle did not argue with them, but pointedly said: "Why don't you scroll to the end of the page and take a closer look at Pipi Xia's detailed introduction."
Although Shen Qiao didn't understand why Prime Minister Turtle wanted them to take a closer look at the detailed introduction of this ugly thing, he still followed the instructions and scrolled to the end of the page.
Because it is an external holographic page, other people can also see it.
It wasn't until Shen Qiao saw the text at the bottom of the page that he said, "!!!"
what? !
Xiao Tingyun also looked stunned, with a bit of disbelief in his eyes.
Long Jiu slowly read out the passage: ". It can pin down prey that is 10 times larger and 10 times heavier than its body. Hidden under its body is a pair of 'hammers' that can strike at a speed of 60 kilometers. When it attacks prey, it can eject the hammer within one hundred thousandth of a second. The impact of the ejection can reach up to 60kg. The high temperature generated by the instant friction can even cause electric sparks to appear in the surrounding water."
Xiao Tingyun and Shen Qiao were silent.
Prime Minister Turtle looked at the two of them with a smile, "Sure enough, the ability of Pipi Shrimp is transferred to a human body. Do you still think it's a joke?"
Xiao Tingyun raised his hand and pinched his eyebrows. He didn't want to feel it at all.
Shen Qiao opened his mouth, and after a long while he stammered: "That's not right either. If he is so powerful after incorporating the genes of Pipi Shrimp, how could he die so easily?"
"Oh, that's because the real dragon is stronger." Prime Minister Turtle said calmly: "And this biochemical weapon body is only a small genetic fragment of the fused Pipi Shrimp. If all the genes of the Pipi Shrimp are fused, even if you are No human 5S level warrior can beat him."
Shen Qiao: "."
Prime Minister Turtle looked at Xiao Tingyun again and said, "Your Majesty, you can fight him hard. After all, you are now stronger than him in both physical strength and strength."
Xiao Tingyun smiled bitterly, "But I don't feel comforted at all."
Prime Minister Turtle shook his head, "You should feel comforted. The God Builder can obviously create a stronger biochemical weapon body, just like completely integrating the genes of the Pipi Shrimp, but they haven't done that. Why? Because they can't do it yet. , so I can only fuse some gene fragments. When I analyzed the biochemical weapon body, I found that the genes of the unknown organisms fused in his gene chain were all small gene fragments, so I was sure that they This technology is actually too immature.”
But Prime Minister Turtle changed his voice again, with an unspeakable complexity in his tone, "But even so, I have to admit that they are very powerful. Although the biochemical weapon bodies they transformed are no longer human beings, it is undeniable that They created a new species, or it can be said that they completed a human evolution."
"From the birth to the present, you humans have been constantly evolving with time and environment. The most recent evolution is that humans left their home planet and came to take root in the universe. This allowed you to break through the original limits of human life, and at the same time break through The physical limits of human beings have extended the lifespan of you interstellar humans by 150 or even 200 years. It has also given you super strength and physical fitness, and you have even developed the use of mental power. I know that since the aura of heaven and earth on earth disappeared and we entered the Age of Ending Dharma, few humans are still as strong as you are now."
What else could Xiao Tingyun say, he could only smile bitterly.
Shen Qiao had something to say, but before he could speak, Long Jiu beat him to it.
Long Jiu looked serious, staring at the picture of Pipi Shrimp on the holographic page, and suddenly said: "Actually, if the gene fragments that God created to fuse with those biochemical weapon bodies are these creatures, it is nothing. What I am worried about now is, They’ll be bold enough to incorporate something else.”
Xiao Tingyun was stunned when he heard this, while Prime Minister Turtle looked at her thoughtfully and asked, "Your Highness, your words seem to have some meaning?"
Long Jiu had a sullen face, reached out and grabbed in the void, and then pulled out a strange-looking white protective suit.
She threw the protective suit on the coffee table and said in a deep voice: "I just remembered that when I went to collect the sun's gold veins on Gamma Mars, I met the people who created the gods, and the bodies of those people at that time Wearing this special protective suit, with the existence of this protective suit, they can enter Gamma Mars freely."
Long Jiu's eyes turned cold as he stared at the protective suit, and he said to Prime Minister Turtle: "You must not have thought of what this protective suit that can withstand the high temperature of Gamma Mars is made of, right? When this protective suit is opened, it will A protective film appears outside, and it is that film that protects them from the high temperatures on Gamma Mars, and that film is said to contain some special genes, which can be traced back to the frozen corpses under a glacier on Earth."
Hearing this, Prime Minister Turtle's eyebrows suddenly jumped a few times, "What kind of frozen corpse?"
Long Jiu's face was almost frozen, and even his voice was a bit unusually cold, "Two frozen corpses fighting together, one is a big snow-white bird, and the other is a dragon with blue scales!"
Prime Minister Turtle stood up suddenly, "Blue dragon?!!!"
Xiao Tingyun was also shocked.
Shen Qiao took a breath.
Long Jiu had no expression on his face and said in a cold voice: "The big snow-white bird should be the Ice and Snow Phoenix of the Phoenix Clan, and the other one is"
"Ice Dragon." Prime Minister Turtle exhaled slowly, but soon, his face became gloomy, and his tone was filled with anger: "They are too presumptuous! Ever since the Dragon Clan was born in the wilderness, no one among the billions of creatures in the wilderness dared to Those people who provoke the Dragon Clan and touch the Dragon Clan's bones without permission should be punished by God!"
Prime Minister Gui was very angry, but Long Jiu calmed down, "Binglong should be a clan member during the period when dragons and phoenixes were at odds. Uncle Gui, you have been following your father not long after you were conceived from the dragon clan. For the clansmen of that period, , you should know something about it. During the period of discord between dragons and phoenixes, did any of our Ice Dragon clan members die outside, but their remains were not buried in the dragon tomb?"
There was at least a million years between the time when the dragon and the phoenix were at odds with each other. It really made Prime Minister Turtle recall it. He really couldn't remember it for a moment, but...
"There have never been many people of the ice and snow family among the Dragon Clan, and not one is born every hundreds of thousands of years." Prime Minister Turtle frowned and said hesitantly: "Hiss during the period of discord between dragons and phoenixes." He seemed to have thought of something, and his expression slightly changed. Change, "There were less than five ice dragons during the Dragon-Phoenix Discord. At that time, all the tribes in the wilderness were fighting, and the Dragon and Phoenix tribes were also fighting fiercely. No one died in the battle, but one was lost in the chaos."
Long Jiu's expression changed.
Prime Minister Turtle's expression became hesitant to speak.
Long Jiu: "Uncle Gui, if you have anything to say, just say it."
Prime Minister Gui had a tangled look on his face, but under Long Jiu's intense gaze, he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, do you still remember your Aunt Zeyi?"
Long Jiu nodded. Of course she remembered that her mother-in-law had a twin sister, who was her Aunt Zeyi. However, in Long Jiu's memory, her aunt was not in good health and stayed in the big house all year round. Zehai Dragon Palace died when she was just 20,000 years old, and she died of illness.
"Ever since His Highness's mother married His Majesty Longjun, she handed over the throne of Dazehai to Longjun Zeyi. When the dragon and phoenix clans were fighting fiercely, Zeyilongjun once led Dazehaihai. The clan participated in the war, which also caused Zeyi Longjun to have a fetal infection and then give birth to a child on the battlefield. At that time, Zeyi Longjun, who had just given birth, did not have time to take a second look at the child, so he handed over the newly born little Shaojun to his bodyguards. Prepare to secretly send him back to Daze Hailong Palace."
Prime Minister Turtle let out a long sigh: "However, something went wrong with this delivery. The personal guards who were escorting the little young master who was still in the dragon egg back to Da Zehai were ambushed. Three hundred personal guards fought tooth and nail to protect the young young master. In the end, they all died in the miasma forest eight hundred miles away from the Great Zehai Sea, and the dragon eggs were also missing."
Long Jiu's breath was stagnant, and his hands on his legs clenched tightly.
Xiao Tingyun noticed Long Jiu's change and immediately held her in his arms, silently comforting her.
Prime Minister Turtle had a heavy look on his face: "When the news of the missing dragon egg came back to the battlefield, Zeyi Longjun's partner Qingze Jun had just died together with the Phoenix elder Huofeng. Under the double blow, Zeyi Longjun was almost seriously injured and died. , His Majesty and the Dragon Queen arrived in time and managed to save her. After that, Dragon Lord Zeyi has been missing since then, both physically and mentally, she has collapsed."
Speaking of this, Prime Minister Turtle gave Long Jiu a special look, "And Mr. Qingze back then was a true dragon of the ice and snow system."
Long Jiu's expression suddenly changed, "So, those bones are probably..."
Prime Minister Turtle was silent for a moment, and then said: "During the feud between dragons and phoenix, no ice dragons died outside. The only one who could not be found outside was Young Master Da Zehai who had not broken out of his shell at that time. It is also you, your highness. My cousin."
Long Jiu suddenly stood up.
