Humanity had ample time, as the universality verification of the three Life Elixir based on the Crimson Flame Civilization had been completed. Researchers detected inducing factors in the genes of volunteers who voluntarily underwent clinical trials, similar to those found in previous Life Elixir. This indicated that the elixirs were working again, and the reproductive instincts of the genes had once again been 'tricked'.
Three batches of volunteers totaled 30,000. The aging factors and damaged cells that appeared in their bodies were completely eliminated after using the drug, and their age was once again fixed at the moment of using the drug.
Humanity obtained three Life Elixir from the Crimson Flame Civilization. According to the Crimson Flame Civilization, the effects of these three potions last for three thousand, four thousand, and five thousand years respectively, and have already been verified on them.
Of course, human scientists are unsure whether the three drugs will retain their original efficacy after adaptability modifications. Genetic testing can only speculate based on data, and it is impossible to verify whether they will truly achieve the same effect as the Crimson Flame Civilization.
To know for sure whether the suitability modification of the three potions was a perfect success, we need to estimate the moment when the effect of one of the potions ends.
However, it's not like we can't predict anything. Humans can analyze data from genetic testing to calculate how many times cells can undergo metabolism, and thus roughly determine how long the Life Elixir will last.
It is a process of decreasing cell metabolism, and its switch is hidden in a certain Base Pair that was originally thought to be meaningless. Humans have found it and can roughly estimate the effective time of Life Elixir through it.
According to the researchers, data from testing volunteers suggests that the 3,000-year-old potion, after adaptability modifications, could last at least 2,000 years.
After the experiment was successful, the New Government awakened all the hibernating humans and gave priority to scientists and Research Personnel who needed it.
At the same time, the research results were made public, and these three new Life Elixir were incorporated into the overall system in accordance with the previous rules for Life Elixir use. Of course, times have changed, so the original barriers to their use have been lowered considerably.
The Life Elixir that humans previously possessed no longer had entry barriers, meaning that the minimum lifespan for newborn humans would be 1,500 years. Anyone with even a modicum of ambition, and not so lazy as to simply sit around waiting to die, would have a chance to Life Elixir with a 3,000-year effect.
The remaining two types, like the previous systems, require a certain contribution to some aspect of human development.
Some people are satisfied with this policy, while many others are dissatisfied.
The former mostly refers to people who believe they are capable and qualified to use the three New Life Elixir, while the latter mostly refers to people who believe they are never qualified to use the latter two Life Elixir in their lifetime.
After all, the Life Elixir with a three-thousand-year efficacy is fine. According to the previous regulations on the control of Life Elixir, the other two types require Research Personnel, scientists, engineers and other personnel with connections to natural sciences, or military personnel to be qualified to use them.
The two medicines combined barely reach nine thousand years.
Nine thousand years!
Previously, the difference between the three versions of human Life Elixir 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 was only a few hundred years. Even if one was used less, one would probably die a few hundred years earlier. In interstellar life where people often travel for hundreds of years, people could not feel how long such time was.
But if this number is increased tenfold, it's a different story. That's almost ten thousand years, and the phrase "I love you for ten thousand years" could truly become a reality at that moment.
Moreover, after the successful clinical trials and the publication of usage guidelines, a voice emerged in human society: Why can even a vassal race live longer than us?
Such voices immediately garnered support from previously silent citizens. In this era of abundant material wealth, they have no worries about food or clothing, and because they lack the ability to participate in scientific development, this group has a great deal of free time and is the most numerous.
They have a lot of free time, and they spend all their free time stirring up this topic on the internet. At first, they just complained, but as time went on, these voices were gradually guided by some purposeful voices, and eventually an organization called "Life Equality" emerged in society.
Actually, it wasn't really an organization at the beginning, but as more people joined and some influential people guided it, it gradually became a loose organization.
After being given leadership, they began to voice their demands through the internet and social activities. Based on the principle of Right to Life Equality, they challenged the New Government's policy on the use of Life Elixir, resembling a protest march with banners.
"Open up the Life Elixir, reject inequality, and let everyone die a natural death!"
"Everyone is equal before life; we reject class divisions!"
"All lives are equal, and we should respect every life."
"Life comes first, equality and no difference!"
Slogans were shouted out by this group of ordinary people, spreading from one Residential Spaceship to Residential Spaceship, and soon sweeping across the entire human society.
As the leader, Yue Yuan was naturally aware of these phenomena through various channels, and several high-ranking officials also approached him about it.
"Chief, the calls to open up all life to the public are growing louder and louder. If this continues, I'm afraid things will get out of hand!" A senior executive looked worriedly at Yue Yuan, who was standing by the window of the Lyra Command Center.
His name is Nong Huaxue, belonging to the new generation of humans. He was originally a chef. After the emergence of Strong Artificial Intelligence, he lost his job and switched to politics, and is now the Administrative Officer one of the many human- Residential Spaceship.
"Yes, Chief of Staff, now it's not just the people Residential Spaceship 996 who have members of the 'Life Equality' organization; almost every spaceship has them. They are mostly ordinary people, but they are also the most numerous group of people," a central Administrative Officer said.
Beside him were six high-ranking officials, four of whom were regional Administrative Officer, and the other two were individual spaceship Administrative Officer, like those in Nong Huaxue.
At this moment, Yue Yuan turned around, glanced at the group, and said calmly, "You also think it should be fully opened up?"
"This"
For a moment, no one knew how to respond. After a short while, one of them finally spoke up, "I think we should just open it up. I'm not speaking up for the 'Life Equality' organization, but I believe this is a social and psychological issue. They're right about some things. Because of their special professions and positions, they can enjoy all Life Elixir, while ordinary people cannot. Not to mention the long-term consequences, just considering the death of this generation of ordinary people, we sometimes have to admit that we so-called high-ranking officials might indeed develop into a class. That's not just a few hundred years, but nearly ten thousand years. In such a long time, even if we don't want it, a privileged class enjoying long lifespans will inevitably form naturally."
"If this continues, internal conflicts will inevitably arise among humanity, conflicts between ordinary people and those in special professions, and conflicts between management and ordinary people. As the saying goes, a single spark can start a prairie fire, and when these conflicts escalate further..."
