Gene Space

Within the giant corporation, mission assignments are similar to those in the mother city, ranging from level one to level five, with level one being the lowest and level five the highest.

The "mass incident" that occurred in Bio-region 104 was defined as Level 5.

One hundred Class B radioactive beasts—that's roughly equivalent to a small mechanical army.

After this incident, the number of people who disappeared in District 104 jumped from a dozen to tens of thousands.

Needless to say, the missing people all turned into biological signals of flesh-clad water sprites.

Tianping Technology took this very seriously, and a large number of experts were dispatched to the site. After all, this was a testing ground, and as with any test, there was a possibility of failure.

Accidents must be prevented.

This has nothing to do with senior engineers.

At this moment, he was sitting on the edge of the hospital bed, peeling an apple with his fingers. On the bed, Jinba looked energetic and did not look like a patient at all, although all her bio-prosthetics had been removed, making her look smaller.

"Little G, did you see that? That move I just made!"

"I'm really amazing. I can feel that I've completely mastered that power. Once I install the new prosthetic body, I'll definitely be able to replicate it."

"Mmm, eat an apple," the senior engineer said, placing the apple near her mouth. Jinba Meng opened her mouth wide and bit off most of the apple, chewing it with a "crunch, crunch" sound, completely like a female beast.

"One more, please."

"Oh."

The senior engineer picked up another apple, but his mind had already wandered to another place.

In the previous battle, he forcibly activated Jinba's potential, causing her to tear apart the radiation field. His real intention was to buy time and wait for the other members of the Throne Division to arrive.

However, to his surprise, the radiation field was destroyed, and the remaining seventy-odd Class B radiation beasts disappeared at the same time.

This kind of power is absolutely beyond what Jinba could achieve.

Even for him, it's only possible to do so during a fusion transformation.

Therefore, there is only one answer: it is the power of the testing ground.

So, is the problem with the test site itself, or is this part of the test?

The senior engineer was certain that Kaibao knew something.

However, unlike the powerful machine, Kaibao, the mechanical mainframe, seems to prefer to be an observer and assistant rather than a leader.

It's a bit of a headache. If the "biological computer" were still around, he could analyze more. But now, he can only guess. He still needs to rely on Ah Q's side to put in the effort.

The senior engineer knew that with countless eyes watching him, it would be very difficult to get things done.

Of course, there was a reason why he exposed his identity and infiltrated the Knights as a spy.

After feeding her 20 apples, the giant Barbie on the bed was finally fed. Jinba smacked her lips and her eyes darted around.

After a moment of silence, a knock sounded on the door. Before the two could respond, a group of muscular men pushed the door open and entered, each with a louder voice than the last.

A book-reading app recommended to me by a friend I've known for ten years, Wild Fruit Reading! It's freaking amazing! I use it to read aloud and listen to books while driving or before bed to pass the time. You can download it here.

"Haha, Sister Jin, you're amazing! I heard you single-handedly killed over a hundred radioactive beasts!"

"Sister Jin, we've come to see you. The doctor is here too!"

"Jinba, when did you become so strong? I doubt any of the combatants at headquarters are as good as you. Who helped you with the cybernetic body modification?"

Compared to their first meeting, these people's attitudes had completely changed. Although they claimed to be visiting Jinba, their words were full of subtle attempts to curry favor with the engineer, as if they couldn't wait for him to take advantage of their bodies.

The senior engineer had a blank expression, like a robot. Well, he was a robot, to be honest.

These people lingered for quite a while, and seeing that the senior engineer had no reaction at all, they finally left, looking back every few steps, reluctant to part.

"These idiots, they can't even flatter people properly, unlike me," Jinba shook her head dismissively, then looked at Engineer Gao with a warm expression and said sincerely:

"Dad!"

"Heh," the senior engineer glanced at the other person disdainfully, "When I was calling someone's mom, you were probably still somewhere."

Does Tianping Technology have top-tier prosthetic doctors like Gao Gong? Of course they do.

Will it be the turn of the senior security personnel in these branches?

The answer is no, don't even think about it. These top-tier experts are all top-quality corporate assets. Each one is responsible for cutting-edge technology projects and is protected in every way. How could they possibly be considered?

Therefore, the emergence of senior engineers is like fireflies in the dark night—so cool and so outstanding.

After becoming a father, Jinba decisively started relying on her parents. At this time, she was dragging Gao Gong to help her choose a bio-prosthetic body.

Because all the bio-prosthetics on her body melted, they all needed to be replaced.

The senior engineer was also very interested in Tianping Technology's biotechnology, so he readily agreed.

So early the next morning, Jinba dragged the senior engineer to the branch's prosthetic body processing center to start selecting goods.

Unlike the slaughterhouses we're used to, the "production" of bio-prosthetics is much more environmentally friendly. It involves direct genetic adjustments and editing to accelerate growth. If it's a custom-made bio-prosthetic like Jinba, it only takes two or three hours to cultivate a brand new one.

Tier 2 - Excellent Arm Plugin, Destructive Frenzy

Tier 2 - Basic Finger Plugin, Fighting Storm

Tier 2 - Excellent-grade thigh plugin, Tiger Throne

Tier 2 - Excellent Heart Plug-in, Ghost Beast

At this prosthetic manufacturing center, the senior engineer saw more than fifty kinds of biological prosthetics, ranging from basic to high-quality. There were definitely even more advanced ones, but those were mostly at the headquarters of Tianping Technology.

However, the sheer number of individual bio-prosthetic products is enough to reveal the depth and capabilities of this biotechnology company.

As expected of a company that collaborates most closely with major military giants, they have a truly wide variety of models.

The senior engineer also saw the familiar gorilla arm, but in biological mode. It was said to be a plus version of the gorilla arm, specially customized for the Titan troops of the Tiber Defense System, called the Gorilla King Giant Arm, which is three meters long.

Titan units, level 50 super creature units, are said to be comparable to the Decepticon legions under the Cybertron General.

In addition, the senior engineer even saw the Strong Colonizer armor. This half-biological, half-cyborg being was moving its limbs in a human-like manner. As if noticing the senior engineer's gaze, it suddenly opened its mouth wide, and countless sharp teeth shot out like nails, which then pierced the bulletproof glass, making muffled 'bang bang bang' sounds.

Energizer armor... is that a specialty of the Xiao family?

This old-fashioned family, which came from the civilized era, is getting worse and worse; even their family's signature skills have been learned by others.

Compared to these bio-prosthetics, what the senior engineer was more interested in was the "second-tier architecture" that produced the prosthetics.

One type is the "Bioinformation Synthesizer," which functions similarly to a 4D printer. It can directly synthesize biological cells, and even artificially synthesize radiated beasts. The primary models of all biological prosthetics are manufactured by it.

The second type is the "Gene Space," which looks like a large sterile room with silver-white walls on all sides. At this moment, a human figure is slowly taking shape in the "space."

It was a familiar face; it was Matsumoto Tetsu, the former employee of Tenping Technology who had died earlier.

Soon, Matsumoto Tetsu opened his eyes, lying naked on the ground. He opened his eyes in a daze, and the medical staff skillfully went in, first wrapping his body in a towel, and then administering a sedative.

The previously mysteriously vanished dead were simply "resurrected," carried out trembling all over, and as they walked, they stammered:

"Something definitely went wrong with the experiment. I've never seen such a powerful flow of biological information. I need to report to Dr. Liang..."

"You should rest well first. Since you were genetically replicated, your neurotransmitters are very unstable. If you get too emotionally agitated, it can cause memory loss symptoms."

The medical staff supported him while comforting him.

That's right, the purpose of this "gene space" is to resurrect others.

It's not even a simple clone; it's a complete reproduction of a living person's memories and body.

Fortunately, the scope of this "gene space" is only within the first level, that is, within level 30. Beyond level 30, the power of biological information will cause instability in the "gene space," thus resulting in an incomplete resurrection.

Even so, this is still quite terrifying.

Resurrection is a realm that only civilizations at least at level 3 can reach.

For a long time, it was even a standard feature of the "Fourth Calamity".

However, NPCs can also be resurrected here.

The two second-tier buildings are both technological achievements of the Cyber Test Site.

This is not the only cyber test site, and the technological achievements there are far more than this.

The senior engineer gazed longingly at the gene space; this was what he truly desired.
