Two weeks later.

Lara, this woman who was once tough, resolute and courageous is now gentle and careful, caressing her fair belly, with a smile on her lips, and her eyes filled with the brilliance of maternal love.

"Child, you will be the continuation of Krypton, the hope of House of El, our beloved child." She said softly, looking at the busy Qiao Jor-El with eyes full of motherly love.

Qiao-Jor-El, who was adjusting the gene input equipment, looked up and saw the radiance of motherly love radiating from his wife's body.

It's amazing how a child changes a woman.

In the past, Lara had a very tyrannical style and powerful force, and could fight Faora several times, but now his whole body seems to be filled with a soft light, his mouth is smiling, he thinks about the future from time to time, and is full of expectations for the future.

But the next moment, because I think that I can't accompany my child, I feel sad for the child's loneliness, and my emotions change rapidly.

"Yes, he will be a child we can be proud of."

Jor-El came over, put his big hand on the back of Laura's hand that was stroking her belly, looked at Laura and smiled.

"Lara, you take a rest first." After a while, Qiao-Jor-El said.

Lara's face showed worry, his long black eyelashes trembled slightly, and his eyes shrank slightly, "Qiao, protect my child." Lara couldn't help but said with worry in his heart.

Qiao-Jor-El nodded affirmatively, gave Lara some comfort, then held the back of her head and let her lie on the biological genetic instrument table.

"Get some sleep first. I have simulated it thousands of times with the Keen detector. There will be no problem?" Qiao-Jor-El's deep voice comforted her steadily.

Lara nodded gently, fluttered his eyelashes, closed his eyes, and took a long breath, intending to enter a natural sleep state.

But at this moment, how could Lara, who was worried about the child in her belly, be able to sleep naturally? Her controllable breathing prevented her from getting rid of the danger of worry.

She really wanted to stand up right away and say to Joe: My child is more important than Krypton's safety.

But she couldn't. It was just that she had already discussed it with Qiao. The responsibility of being an upper-level person of Krypton and the mission of continuing Krypton were also constantly surrounding her heart.

However, the embryo that had just been born in her belly had not been able to completely shake her and Qiao's ideal of continuing Krypton. This was their joint decision as a couple.

Seeing that Lara could not relax into natural sleep, Qiao-Jor-El activated the hypnotic sleep gas that is harmless to the fetus in the embryonic stage. The white mist of the hypnotic gas slowly sprayed out from both sides of the biogenetic machine, allowing Lara's skin to absorb it, relax his hands and feet, and fall asleep calmly.

Qiao-Jor-El looked at the sleeping Lara with soft eyes, and saw her white belly, where their child was being born.

This is the first natural birth since Krypton vetoed natural birth. My child will have unlimited choices and directions, and can become the person he wants to be, instead of being firmly tied to death by genes.

Qiao-Jor-El thought with hope in his heart, his eyes gradually becoming firmer.

In fact, Krypton made the transition from natural fertility to genetic endowment a long time ago, and conceived a child from the biological womb of Life Creation Chamber.

There are too many things that are uncontrollable in natural reproduction. The factor of a fetus in the mother's body being affected by genetic information and having a child with mediocre talents, no characteristics, and an average IQ is almost 99%.

This is all because in the mother's body, the first requirement of the fetus is to survive. It competes with the mother for nutrients to survive. Everything else comes second. Only by surviving can the fetus be qualified to make genetic information available for other aspects.

Pregnancy is a cruel epic battle between biological genes and nutrients for growth. From a genetic level, this is a cruel war that prevents ordinary people from facing the facts.

No morality or maternal love can be applied to the naked facts.

This is not a scene of a loving mother and a filial son, but a life-and-death battle for survival!

From the beginning, when the fertilized egg wants to be fixed on the uterine wall, the mother will activate her own immune system to expel the foreign fertilized egg. When faced with the mother's attack, the embryo will secrete a hormone, chorionic gonadotropin, to inhibit the rejection reaction of lymphocytes.

Lymphocytes are soldiers that fight external infections and monitor the body's response. At this time, the mother's body will react with vomiting, increased blood pressure, and accelerated heartbeat.

From the very beginning, the moment of natural childbirth, the war between mother and baby has begun.

If the mother is successful and the mother's immune system defeats the embryo, immune miscarriage will occur and the embryo will be expelled from the body.

Unless you are a wealthy family, you can supplement the baby with a lot of nutrition, so that the baby can survive with peace of mind and have extra room to improve and highlight other genetic information.

Otherwise, most civilian babies are born with survival as the main condition. Being alive is their talent. Other aspects, including appearance, physical fitness, limbs, and other natural parts, are just ordinary.

This is why some pregnant women are obviously too thin to lose their shape, but the fetus inside them is fat and fat.

Therefore, Krypton rejects natural childbearing. For this reason, there are too many unknown factors that lead to poor development of the baby's genetic Tenten.

To the extent that genetic talents can be controlled, the genetic compilation of Krypton can completely enable every baby to develop healthily and grow towards the specified talents, which is extraordinary.

Natural reproduction, on Krypton, is a serious reproductive crime that disregards the safety of future generations, stifles their talents, and makes future generations go in unknown directions.

This is the optimal choice made by a biotech civilization that has reached the level of genetic compilation talent.

Therefore, it is natural and extremely reasonable for Krypton to veto natural childbirth, prevent natural childbirth, and sentence natural childbirth to a felony.

As for in the end, certain talents will be dominated by the upper class and form the upper class, which will remain at the top and form a situation where social classes are solidified. That is the change of people's hearts.

Seeing his wife sleeping, Joe-Jor-El took out Life Codex and placed it over Lara's belly.

Life Codex sounds full of life, but in fact, its shape is like the front half of the skull of an ancient caveman excavated, with a dark golden tone. All the genes of Krypton are derived from it.

He-El once suspected that Life Codex was a corpse. He suspected that this was the god of Krypton and the corpse of Rao.

It is very likely that Kryptonian used the corpse of Rao to create Kryptonian, which is so powerful that it can conduct wars to conquer the stars.

It may be that in the ancient times of the universe, they overused the corpse of Rao and frantically manufactured Kryptonian, so much so that today, they have consumed it until only the front half of the skull remains, and are called Life Codex by contemporary Kryptonian.

But the genetic information stored by Life Codex is indeed a tool. Until now, He-El is not sure whether Life Codex is what he guessed.

He looked down from high in the sky and watched Qiao-Jor-El carefully turn on the instrument and transmit the genetic information of Life Codex into the baby in Lara's body.
