Chapter 1371: Fierce Fight! Master and Disciple 99 (Part 2)

April 9, 2223

1:00 a.m.

After inspecting all the wards, Fry returned to the director's office. There are now 79 people in Fry's Psychiatric Hospital, and the number of patients will continue to increase. The entire hospital has been reinforced and renovated. Although it cannot be said to be brand new, it can meet all the needs of patients.

Fry's cheeks looked a little dazed in the dim light. Every time when it was late at night, he would always think of the tragedy that happened here. No one knew about the mental hospital. Only a few people came to claim the remains of their family members. Most people did not come, saying that they would leave it to the hospital for processing.

Everything seemed to have returned to the starting point. Fry would always recall the past memories that seemed like illusions. He clearly lived in the hospital every day with the clone Lolita, and those doctors, but after waking up from this dream, Fry felt real in his heart. It was so real, but everything was fake after waking up from the dream.

Recently, Frye felt that the biggest change in his body was that his alienated genes were growing exponentially every day. According to medical reference, his body should not be able to bear such a growth of alienated genes, but his body did not show any abnormality. Instead, he was getting better and stronger.

Frye raised one hand and extended his index finger. With a thought, brown particles overflowed. A few days ago, he could only release the lowest level of white particles. In just a few days, his strength doubled.

Frye wanted to notify the people in Section 4 to come and log his information as a mutant into the city mutant information, but for some reason, Frye was a little repulsive in his heart and did not want others to know that he was a mutant.

Now Frye is most hesitant about Lolita's clone in the underground room. Should he wake her up? According to the time on the panel next to the incubator, she has been in a coma for nearly 4 years. Frye once wanted to get rid of this clone, but he was never able to do it.

Fry struggled fiercely in his heart for countless times, because he felt more and more disappointed with everything nowadays. The city wrapped in lies, the solidified system, the torn class, the bottom can no longer withstand the torment.

Human suffering has been prolonged, countless times more than in the past, all because of the success of the life vaccine, and what the cloned Lolita said is true.

The future of mankind has been determined, and it is bound to endure more and more pain, which will oppress the fragile nerves of mankind. More than 30 patients will be admitted to the hospital tomorrow. Fry has received admission applications from hospitals in various places at noon. More than 30 patients are families who can no longer afford the treatment and care fees.

This is the case in Brilliant City now. The diagnosis and treatment of mental illness is much more troublesome than many ordinary diseases, so the charges are quite high. A patient needs at least 2,000 yuan a month for treatment and care. This is only the minimum standard of most hospitals, and 2,000 yuan is equivalent to the average monthly income of the middle class. Many people cannot afford this fee.

Frye Psychiatric Hospital does not charge any fees. At the beginning, it charged only 100 yuan. At the beginning, many people paid the fee, but after a few months, no one was willing to pay the money. Frye called to urge the other party to pay. From the beginning, he said that life was difficult and he could only owe it first, but later he called and cursed.

The other party said that there was assistance from Congress, so why did he charge fees? In the end, Frye stopped calling because the worst case scenario for the patients was death if they left here.

For most people who sent patients here, Frye only asked them to bring some food, which was the lowest requirement. Some people would bring some things, while others would just leave the patients and leave. All the people who left were the same, with a relieved expression and left without looking back.

Now every month, Angus's family will receive a sum of aid funds, and some other associations will also send some supplies, including the Department of Operations, which will also send some things. In addition to treating patients every day, Frye is combing the land. The area of ​​the hospital is very large. As long as the yard in front of the main building of the hospital can be used and crops can be planted, most of the food problems can be solved.

Fry has now found a set of effective treatment methods that can restore the patient's most basic living ability and labor, so that the body will not collapse, and one day he may recover a certain degree of consciousness.

"Forget it!"

Fry made a decision. He did not intend to wake up the clone Lolita, nor did he intend to deal with her. He just wanted her to stay quietly in the basement. Fry got up and walked to the sofa beside him. This was his office and his dormitory. Fry just wanted to rest quickly and get up at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning to exercise.

Although the alien genes that proliferated too fast did not cause harm to Fry's body, Fry knew very well that if he did not increase his body's toughness through exercise, there would be problems one day.

After Fry closed his eyes, he fell asleep soon, and the hospital fell into silence.

1:21 a.m.

Located outside the headquarters of Section 5, the lights were bright, and the streets were still crowded, just like the streets in the morning. Now the mutant rating exams and the behavior department exams are concentrated in the headquarters of Section 5, which are jointly responsible by Sections 3 and 5. Tens of thousands of people enter Section 5 every day, and most of them come in advance to prepare.

After more than a month of testing, the mutant rating test is called the most difficult test in history by most people. All the data indicators are almost overwhelming. Although the promotion test is held every year, if it is difficult to pass, Basically everything you put into preparing for the exam in advance will be wasted.

More than 5,000 mutants have obtained mutant level certificates issued by the administrative department. With the rise of administrative examinations, most of the institutions and companies that used to assess mutant levels have disappeared.

At present, 90% of the more than 5,000 people have obtained E-level mutants, 5% have obtained D-level, 3% have obtained C-level, and the remaining ones have obtained A-level and B-level. 2%, and there is only one mutant who can obtain S-level.

This also includes some people from the business department who also took the exam. The most difficult part of the exam is the battle. If you are not careful in this step, it will be difficult to advance. Even the third level within the level is composed of actual and other factors. The candidates fight to decide.

There were a lot of criticisms in the city for a short period of time, but soon these voices began to subside as the number of people taking exams continued to increase. This kind of judgment standard was indeed accepted by people, because it was relatively fair and reasonable, and it was possible to clearly know a person. The strength of mutants.

In the past, those mutants who relied on spending money to obtain high grades from some evaluation agencies could no longer obtain high wages by relying on adulterated grades.

Because of the restriction on the number of mutants recruited, most companies are recruiting every day, and the employment rate in the city has begun to rise steadily. Nowadays, what people in the city are most worried about is the medical industry. After extensive review by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, There are problems in the medical industry. So far, most of the medical industry has chosen to close down and is still unwilling to accept the conditions of Congress.

Currently, the medical supplies required by the medical industry are produced by the Angus family, and the four squares in the areas still under construction have been transformed into simple factories for the production of medical supplies.

All of this is done with the support of various new technologies provided by Congress. Although there are reports that medical companies that have problems are already reapplying for medical qualifications, no large medical company has yet started operations. .

Now, in order to keep up with the supply of pharmaceutical raw materials, the Angus family had to buy the factories that the Hillman family had invested in for the orchard project, and began to transform these factories into pharmaceutical cultivation bases. A large amount of planting soil was transported, and the factory was renovated extremely quickly. Now the supply of raw materials for drugs can keep up.

At this moment, most people discovered that the Angus family was still the same Angus family. They had not been dragged down by construction. Instead, they could solve the problem of medical supplies supply in the city with one action.

At the gate of Section 5, there was a commotion, and many people took out their mobile phones to take pictures, while reporters nearby who had been waiting for a long time swarmed in.

"Chief Alpha, may I ask about the recent mutant rating exam?"

Alpha looked at the reporter who was holding out his microphone, took out a cigarette and lit it before shaking his head.

"I'm very tired. I'm sorry, everyone, please give way."

As soon as Alpha finished speaking, the staff from the five departments around him immediately rushed out and separated the reporters. Alpha slowly walked towards a restaurant and bar opposite. However, the restaurant and bar were full of people. Just when Alpha was about to leave. , the store owner hurriedly ran out.

"There's still room upstairs. Master Alpha, please come inside."

After Alpha took a glance, she found that there were many mutants sitting in the store, who looked like bodyguards. She was about to turn around when a burst of laughter came from the store.

"What, Chief Alpha, how about a drink as a favor? It's all about eating anyway, it's the same everywhere."

Honghong came down the stairs with an enchanting smile. Alpha was just about to leave, but she saw many people gathered nearby, especially many women. She sighed and walked in.

"Hurry up and order a table of dishes, just the two of us, no one else."

Sure enough, after following Honghong upstairs, in a small private room, there was a table of dishes, and the heat from the stove was steaming.

"If it's business, don't talk!"

After Alpha sat down, Honghong smiled and moved next to her.

"Oh, Alpha, what are you talking about?"

Alpha has already noticed what Honghong wants to talk about, and recently many media company bosses have been queuing up outside the headquarters of Section 5, always hoping to treat him to dinner, but Alpha refuses every time. It is very clear that most people in the film and television entertainment industry have seen business opportunities from this mutant's promotion exam.

"I'll tell you the truth. The battle for the mutant exam will be broadcast live throughout the city."

"This is not entertainment, this"

Honghong picked up a piece of cucumber, dipped it in some sauce, and handed it to Alpha's mouth. Honghong often came to Alpha's house when she was a child. Alpha also heard that his mother and this woman had a very big dispute in the past.

"There is nothing in this world that cannot be entertained. Think about it, Alpha. Now all departments in the business department are short of funds. Although some businessmen will provide assistance, the situation is not optimistic. At any rate, the welfare of the department members must be increased. One point, I have discussed this matter with the manager, and the manager thinks it is feasible. We in the entertainment, film and television industry will give out 5 to 10 million bonuses for each mutant examination. "

Alpha looked at Honghong in confusion, but she understood in the next second.

"Are you planning to hold a live combat competition or something like that?"

Honghong was a little surprised.

"As expected of a genius, he can understand everything just by thinking about it. And I think this plan is beneficial to the business department. Don't you think the current progress of the promotion examination is too slow? Because it has no appeal, most people will If you don’t take the exam, you will get an E-level, but if you take the exam, you may only get an E-level, so it’s better not to take it, wouldn’t it?”

Alpha couldn't refute Honghong's words. This would indeed attract the attention of many businessmen, including people in the city, to pay attention to the mutant exam, and mutant people would also want to try to take the exam and enter this competition.

"This money is provided by our Film and Television Entertainment Association. If we can achieve sustained profit growth in the future, it can be higher. Not only will there be bonuses for subsequent battles, but there will also be a special bonus for some outstanding mutants. ,what do you think?"

Alpha took the wine from Honghong and took a sip. Honghong had already started grilling meat.

The meat slices on the grill were sizzling, and after Alpha took a sip of wine, Honghong laughed.

"I don't think you need to refuse such a proposal, Alpha. After all, this is for the mutants who are currently having their income cut. Think about the pros and cons. There are only pros in this matter, and the cons are almost difficult to find. You should also read In recent years, those popular mutant fighting programs organized by some TV stations have been very popular, right? However, these programs have frequently exposed some false things in recent years, resulting in many such programs being stopped. , plus some bookmakers are behind the scenes.”

Alpha didn't refute, picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and ate it. Honghong filled Alpha's glass with a wine bottle and laughed excitedly.

"Give me a detailed and specific implementation plan, and then our business department will submit it."

"Then let me say thank you in advance, Alpha, and see if there is anything you like."

Before Honghong finished speaking, she immediately slapped her forehead and shook her head helplessly.

"I'm sorry, I almost forgot, you are the princess of the Angus family, so naturally you will look down on such a small favor."

Alpha didn't answer. Honghong continued to eat. At this time, Honghong also noticed that Alpha looked over from time to time with a puzzled expression. She seemed to know what Alpha was thinking.

"Honey, have you settled the deal?"

The door to the room was pushed open roughly by Jiang Hao. He looked drunk. Two bodyguards supported him. Honghong frowned slightly, while Jiang Hao glanced at Alpha.

"Oh, isn't this Alpha? Haha, do you want to get married? Let me introduce you to one."

"roll!"

After seeing Honghong's angry face, Jiang Hao said nothing more, and Alpha sighed helplessly.

"It looks like you've had a hard time."

"Isn't that right? Marrying an idiot like that is really tiring."

The door to the room was closed again, and Honghong brought up a light and shadow screen, and then a confidential document.

"In return, I certainly won't let you agree in vain."

After Alpha opened the file, his expression turned solemn instantly. These are several cases that are currently backlogged in the film and television area. There is no conclusion yet and they are still under investigation. There are a lot of things in the files of these cases. Alpha is eating while eating. Bian looked at it carefully.

"There are policies and countermeasures, especially in places like the film and television area. Certain things have happened countless times in the film and television area, and Ben Kinsale can no longer control it."

Looking at Alpha's suspicious eyes, Beckinsale added.

"It won't work if the film and television area continues like this. It's already difficult for the association to control it. After all, capital is king. Don't look at me. We are very clean here. After all, many of the things Beckinsale set at the beginning are Correct, now many businessmen in the city have begun to come in with capital, and this chaos must be brought under control. This is killing two birds with one stone, isn't it? "

Alpha doesn't hate the woman herself. After all, there has been nothing wrong with everything she has done over the years, and their company has also produced many high-quality works.

"It's up to you Alpha, there's only so much I can offer."

Alpha stood up, nodded, turned around and walked away. She immediately issued the mobilization order. Honghong looked at Alpha walking out and felt a little relieved. It was very dangerous to run to Alpha under great pressure. Yes, after all, everything Alpha has done over the years has made Honghong feel afraid.

Didi didi

"If you have time, come over. I need you to stay in the film and television area for a while."

Alpha looked at the light and shadow screen in front of him. The number on it was 0013.

"Sorry, I'm in Section 10 now!"

Alpha has already entered the headquarters of Section 5. At this time, many team captains have gotten up and started to gather in the conference hall on the first floor. Some directors have also gotten up.

"You can come over to Section 5 when you have time. Several cases involving the film and television area will involve a lot of things."

Gene's helpless laughter came from the other side of the phone.

"I'm afraid there won't be time in the near future."

Alpha stopped as soon as he entered the elevator.

"What's the meaning?"

"Just now, the spacecraft capable of reaching Mars was completed."

Alpha stared blankly at the rising floors in front of him, his heart beating violently for a moment.

"You have to leave!"

"It's probably just a matter of a day or two!"

A dull feeling burst out of Alpha's chest, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Why don't we leave a few days later!"

"We are all the same Alpha, leaving the city and each of you to you! No matter what you do, the city will always continue to function, no matter what you want to do!"

Alpha hummed, feeling a little sad for a moment. After hanging up the phone, the elevator door opened, and Alpha exhaled a long puff of smoke.

"This day has finally come."

3 o'clock in the morning

Jean quietly looked at the behemoth in front of him. A large technical black ball with a diameter of 30 meters was placed in front of Jean. This was the spacecraft heading to Mars. It had been tested some time ago and was enough to break through the current situation. A small opening in the east and north of Brilliant City from which the universe can be observed.

In order to cope with the unexplained huge magnetic field that surrounds the earth, this spacecraft uses magnetic isolation technology, which can not be interfered by external magnetic fields. However, the materials for this technology are extremely difficult to manufacture, and it is not easy to do this. .

The optical nuclear engine manufactured using Mimic 1 can allow this behemoth to reach a speed range of 100 to 130km/s. According to the current straight-line distance between the Earth and Mars is about 80 million kilometers, it will take one and a half years to reach Mars. .

Noah and Noah were still debugging with more than 300 people from Section 10. Gene walked to a dented area of ​​the ball, stretched out his hand and pressed it. With a creak, a small door opened. , there is a hollow heat insulation layer inside, about 3 meters in diameter, and the shell can be rotated and transformed. Excessive speed will cause the temperature of the shell to rise, and the shell will automatically adjust the blocked position to reduce the temperature of the shell. .

Above Jean's head, there is a circular entrance, which is the cockpit. The entire sphere contains a material storage cabin, a power cabin, a cockpit, a weapons carrying cabin, a detection machine cabin, and a parked three small spacecraft. The shuttle's hangar.

A large number of mimetic objects , this kind of high-energy photonuclear fuel made from Mimic 1 is enough to supply this spacecraft, based on the maximum distance of Mars from the earth, which is more than 400 million kilometers, and can make three round trips.

Spaceships are based on kinetic energy and functionality, and their safety is almost zero. They don't even have the ability to protect against cosmic rays, because only God can handle such a task, and Jean was once an excellent biogeneticist. Home, he basically doesn’t have to worry about a trip.

The exposed small opening is about 400 meters in diameter, which is also an important reason why Tianji Space Nation can communicate with Brilliant City.

"Principal, come out."

Noah shouted. After Gene came out of the small door, the door closed again. Noah held a light and shadow panel with a series of spacecraft values ​​on it.

"You have to remember these values ​​in detail. Once there is a problem with any value, although ai3 can correct it on its own and even activate the automatic repair robot, if you encounter some special circumstances, you have to know which part has the problem. , the circular channel on the driving platform allows you to go anywhere on this ship, because it uses DNA identification mud wall technology.”

Gene nodded and looked at the string of values ​​on the light and shadow panel. He nodded in less than a minute.

"Already noted it down."

Noah ran over with a smile.

"If it's safer, I can go with you. I want to see it too."

Jean smiled and nodded. There was no safety in this space shuttle, but it was only for humans. For Jean, there was no need to consider safety.

At this time, in the distance, a truck drove over here, with a dark blue crystal stone of nearly 1 cubic meter placed on it. It looked uneven, but it looked very beautiful.

"With your power reserves, there should be no need to worry about any problems."

Noah and Noah felt a little dizzy when they looked at the crystal that was transported. They could feel the special rays released from the crystal. Soon the truck stopped behind the big ball, and the crystal was immediately covered by a black It was wrapped in cloth and placed directly into the storage compartment.

"The debugging is almost complete. Do you plan to leave in a month?"

Noah asked, and Gene thought for a while and then said.

"Just tomorrow, April 10th seems like a good day!"

"so fast?"

Noah and Noah asked in unison, Gene nodded.

"Now that you have debugged it, give me three years of tobacco."

The two smiled helplessly.

"Now that it has been decided, I will notify the other six adults and ask them to come over as soon as possible. Do I need to inform the students?"

Noah said, Gene thought for a while and then shook his head.

"No."

A few minutes later, Gu Yi had come up from the laboratory below. He walked over quickly with his hands in his pockets.

"so fast?"

"The sooner the better. I am a little worried that there will be problems in the city. I just go for a trip. I will be back in three years at most."

Gu Yi hummed and said with an emotional smile.

"You have to work hard again. You have to spend at least a year and a half in the universe."

"No way, none of you want to go. In fact, I think Rose is the most suitable."

Gu Yi hummed. When deciding who to go, everyone thought Rose was suitable at first, but Rose didn't want to go at all. In the end, everyone unanimously decided to let Gene go.

"I just hope that the Sky Space Kingdom will not rashly fire."

When Gene said this, everyone's face sank for a while, and then Gu Yi said with cold eyes.

"If they dare to fire, kill them first."

Gene's expression also became cold. He took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a long puff.

"Don't worry, if the Sky Space Kingdom really attacks, I will go to their country first."

Noah's face tightened, and he squinted at the spaceship next to him. Only then did he understand why Gene would bring his energy crystal over. If it was just a space trip, a fist-sized piece would be enough, but Gene brought a full cubic meter of energy crystal over.

"Why don't we communicate first?"

At this time, a female voice came, and Yu Wanrou ran over, she looked a little tired.

"Communication is based on equality, and they know the universe much better than we do, and in many calls, they use words like aboriginals, including their so-called creators. Communication between countries will always be based on strength and weakness."

Gu Yi said, and Gene nodded. Everyone present fell into silence. This journey is not easy, and there may even be some accidents. However, more anxiety is the anxiety that Gene is about to leave Brilliant City.
