Gene Unlocking: I Evolve Every Day

The message that the Ancestor might want to enslave all of humanity was passed on from George.

The next moment, all countries around the world received this astonishing news.

Everyone who received this news seemed a bit shocked and petrified.

To be honest, if George had guessed that someone else might think this way, the high-level officials of various countries wouldn’t take it seriously.

After all, the current international situation speaks of "balance and coexistence."

Moreover, it’s not something that can be accomplished through the strength of one person or even one country—to achieve such a feat of enslaving all humanity.

The Ancestor is different. He has already demonstrated immense combat power, capable of easily unleashing a city-destroying onslaught, or even obliterating all matter in a vast area in an instant.

Even so, based on the latest detection from the Ugly Country’s aerospace monitoring, the Ancestor’s real strength might not be as simple as "city-destroying" level but could be powerful enough to "eradicate the surface."

Therefore, if the Ancestor truly has the idea of enslaving all humanity, it’s possible.

This is why high-level officials in various countries were so terrified when they received George’s speculative message.

Little Day.

"What?"

"The Ancestor wants to enslave all humanity?"

"What do you think is the likelihood of that?"

"I think it’s very possible; otherwise, why would he spread the rumor that a gamma-ray burst would visit the solar system?"

"What should we do? What should we do?"

"This is the Ancestor. If he really wants to enslave all humanity, how can we effectively defend?"

"Relying on the Earth’s current technological level, it’s utterly impossible to stop the Ancestor’s conquest of all humanity. Of course, it’s just a conquest. After all, the Earth is so big, he can’t possibly manage it all alone. In short, as long as the countries of the world unite and refuse to be enslaved, although there might be a lot of bloodshed, resistance is still possible."

"Right, no matter how powerful he is, he’s just one person and can’t manage the entire Earth unless he kills everyone on Earth. But doing so would defeat his original purpose of wanting to enslave all humanity. He wants to enslave all humanity to become a king and have them serve him and his family, so he cannot kill everyone on Earth."

"He can’t kill everyone on Earth, but the problem is, to resist his enslavement, all the countries and their citizens in the world must unite to resist. I’m afraid some soft-boned individuals might defect in the first instance. Then, as the Huaxia proverb goes, ’the defeated troops collapse like a mountain,’ we will really be enslaved!"

...

Big Goose.

"Do you think that guy George is talking nonsense? After all, we don’t have a good relationship with him."

"If it were regular times, that might be possible. For example, he could use this method to have us guard against the Ancestor, accidentally offending him, and then, if the Ancestor gets angry, we’d surely suffer. But at this time, I think the chances of old George talking nonsense are quite low."

"Why?"

"Because the Ancestor did indeed spread the word that a gamma-ray burst would visit the solar system. I had someone check, and based on the current observations of cosmic space and our country’s top astrophysicists’ analysis, the possibility of a gamma-ray burst visiting the solar system is not non-existent, just as low as winning the jackpot in the Huaxia lottery. So, have you ever wondered why he spread this news? What is his purpose ultimately?"

"Are you saying..."

"Hiss, the Ancestor might very well, just as old George speculated, want to enslave all humanity?"

"If so, it’s too terrifying."

"Yeah, we don’t have the ability to stop the Ancestor from conquering the world, or rather, the world has no power to stop him."

"What should we do? How should we respond to this speculation?"

"Let’s wait and see. It’s best if nothing happens, but if the Ancestor truly wants to enslave all humanity, he will certainly make some terrifying moves. We... well, either submit or sit here and wait for death."

"Is there really nothing we can do about him?"

"What can we do? Nuke him? Didn’t Old Ugly try that for you?"

The group fell silent as they talked, the atmosphere oppressive.

Everyone’s inner depths were filled with intense fear.

Indeed.

If the Ancestor really wanted to do something, it’s not something they could stop.

Although this is just a guess, those who had already been scared out of their wits by the Ancestor’s terrifying power couldn’t help but imagine what the scenario would be like if it came true.

What kind of scenario could it be!

It would surely be holding a meager bread, with no oil in the dish!

The only thing that people could be thankful for was predicting that the Ancestor merely wanted to enslave all of humanity, not destroy the Earth.

In this way, as long as they were willing to raise their hands in surrender, at least they could keep a small life.

But who would want to be a slave?

...

Not just Little Day and Big Goose.

Europe, Africa, America, Asia, Australia, and almost every country’s high-level officials were sweating profusely because of receiving George’s speculation.

"My God!"

"Is the Ancestor still going to take the step of enslaving all humanity?"

"Why didn’t I see before that the Ancestor would have such thoughts?"

"Ambition is proportional to power. When you have enough strength, maybe at first your mindset hasn’t changed, and you won’t do anything too terrible, but as you gradually taste the sweetness of power or strong force, the heart will expand, wanting more and more. I believe the Ancestor has experienced such a change of mindset, so he became interested in reigning supreme, wanting to rule the entire Earth and enslave all humanity to create glory for him and his family. Indeed, he has this thought correctly; who made him so powerful? But for us, this is an extremely sad affair."

"I don’t want to be enslaved!"

"I don’t want to be a slave either!"

"What’s the use of not wanting? Unless you appease the Ancestors or destroy them in one fell swoop. Otherwise, even if we guess wrong this time and they don’t do it, next time it’s not certain."

"There is a slight possibility of appeasing them. Destroying them? Don’t even think about it!"

"Are we really just going to sit around and wait for death, letting ourselves be at their mercy?"

The top officials of various countries around the world were discussing internally, filled with immense panic, about this event they believed could affect the entire world.

The more they talked, the more terrified they felt.

The more they pondered, the more desperate they became.

Because they couldn’t think of even the slightest way to solve this problem.

It seemed that as long as the Ancestors were willing, ruling the world and enslaving all of humanity was already a foregone conclusion.

At this thought, the top officials of various countries felt even more panic, increasingly unable to eat or sleep peacefully!

...

Su City, Shanglin Garden.

"...all the information about ’No Beef’ No.1."

Lu Li pointed to the hundreds of thick books stacked in front of him and said to Gu Wei, who was sitting on a single sofa nearby, "In a while, you take all this information back and have the relevant professionals study it to see if it’s possible to create a mecha based on current technology. If it really can’t be done... well, don’t bother me during this time. Wait until the gamma-ray burst situation is over, then you can come and ask me questions."

These books were generated using the "particle condensing" function.

After all, having promised to provide mecha technology, without specific written records, Gu Wei wouldn’t be able to study it.

Lu Li was someone who kept his word; he would certainly do his best to fulfill his promises.

Gu Wei responded quickly, "Okay, Mr. Lu, I will definitely not disturb you during this time."

Lu Li continued, "Also, I need you to do something for me."

Gu Wei said, "Just say it. As long as it’s a request from you, I’ll complete it, come hell or high water."

"It’s not that serious." Lu Li waved his hand and said, "I need you to find me a relatively empty place. I want to build a ’Savior’ mecha base specifically for storing the mechas."

’Savior’ is the latest developed large mecha used to resist gamma-ray bursts.

Lu Li named it simply to signify the hope that these mechas, along with his own formidable strength, could withstand gamma-ray bursts and allow the countless lives on Earth to survive.

Gu Wei was quite diligent.

He asked in detail, "Approximately how large a place do you need, and what equipment is required?"

"Preferably a base of at least a prefecture-level city or larger," Lu Li put forward his requirements. "It should be deserted. I don’t want anyone disturbing us. As for equipment, there’s no need; just find a suitable place with enough security to prevent anyone from trespassing. Although I can handle these tasks, my time is exceedingly precious and cannot be wasted on such minor matters. You understand what I mean."

"I understand," Gu Wei said. "You have to focus on researching ways to counter the gamma-ray bursts."

Lu Li was about to respond.

Suddenly, he looked around.

Gu Wei asked, puzzled, "Mr. Lu, what’s wrong?"

Lu Li chuckled silently, "I sensed something. Some people not only don’t accept my kind reminders but even regard me as a hypothetical enemy."

Gu Wei didn’t quite understand, "Uh, what do you mean by that?"

Lu Li shook his hand, "It’s nothing. You don’t need to ask too much; just focus on what I’ve tasked you with."

Gu Wei responded, "Sure."

Lu Li’s current sensing capability could cover half the Sun.

How could the goings-on on Earth be concealed from him?

He sensed that top officials of various countries thought that his warning about the gamma-ray burst threatening the solar system was a scare tactic aimed at ruling Earth and enslaving humanity.

This made Lu Li burst into laughter.

He was wholeheartedly preparing to save the countless lives on Earth.

And yet, this group of people embraced conspiracy theories, thinking he had such intentions?

To be blunt, what good would it do for him to enslave all of humanity?

With his "particle condensing" ability, whatever he wished for could simply be formed by manipulating particles. Why go through the trouble of ruling Earth?

He mused, "It’s fine for you people to have your conspiracy theories, as long as you don’t interfere with my research to solve the gamma-ray bursts. I can be magnanimous and not pay attention to your words. Or, maybe, after dealing with the gamma-ray bursts, I’ll deal with you slowly later."

For the time being, he hadn’t sensed any actions by the countries of the world preparing to "hamper his efforts," so he didn’t plan to pay attention to them.

Just as he was thinking.

Suddenly, on the super artificial intelligence machine that resembled a small round table, white light gathered again, forming the image of "Nuwa," "Honorable master, I’ve collected all the information on Earth regarding gamma-ray bursts and simulated a response strategy. Would you like to review it?"

Hmm?

Collected all the information?

Also simulated a response strategy?

Lu Li’s eyes lit up, and he couldn’t help but feel hopeful, wishing that the methods simulated by the super artificial intelligence would provide him with some assistance.
