Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr Another five months had passed, and the six-month-old Ling Lan finally began to roll over like a normal baby, evolving into a reptile. Ling Lan felt that her tongue was still a little unwieldy, and could only mutter out a few syllables. Even so, her mother was overjoyed. Compared to other children, Ling Lan's speech was already very clear, and she seemed to be able to understand what she was trying to say.
Ling Lan was so excited that she was about to cry — she could finally tell her mother clearly when she peed and peed. During this time, no matter how much she endured, her mother, who was not on the same wavelength as her, misinterpreted her hints, causing her to experience the shame of wetting her bed again after twenty-seven years.
Alright, the various embarrassing events of the past six months were too painful to remember, and Ling Lan did not want to think about them anymore. She decided that she would erase this memory.
On this day, Ling Lan, who had just woken up, felt that the atmosphere was a little different. Butler Ling Qin was very nervous, and her mother was helping her put on a pair of tightly-guarded, loose-fitting underwear that would not expose her secret at any angle.
Alright, if you ignored the two soft, ball-shaped balls inside, Ling Lan would think that the underwear was actually quite comfortable.
Not long after, a few strangers in military uniforms suddenly arrived at the Ling residence.
Ling Lan glanced at them, and her heart skipped a beat. Although she did not know if soldiers who had returned from the battlefield had this kind of aura, Ling Lan was sensitive enough to sense the fierce aura hidden beneath the uniforms. This was definitely a group of experienced, iron-blooded soldiers who had seen blood.
Ling Lan looked confused, pretending to play with herself, but her ears were perked up. She was very glad that she had reincarnated into a Chinese family ten thousand years later, and that she could still speak Chinese. This meant that she did not have to relearn the written language, and could obtain the information she needed from the words of those people when she was a baby.
After the person spoke a few words with her mother, Ling Lan understood. It turned out that they were here to escort the honourable military merit that Ling Lan had inherited. From now on, it would be delivered once every half a year.
It was only today that Ling Lan finally understood what the so-called honorable military service was. A large part of it referred to gene stimulating agents that could increase one's potential.
There were four levels of Gene Stimulating Elixirs on the market, from level one to level four. Level 4 was the worst, and level 1 was the best. The difference between the two levels was the purity of the gene stimulating agent. Level 4 Stimulating Potion: 30% purity, level 3 45%, level 2 60%, level 1 75%. The higher the purity of the Stimulation Potion, the less harmful it would be to the body. It would allow the user to absorb as much of the Stimulation Potion as possible to stimulate and improve their potential and physique.
Therefore, the more agents a child's body could withstand, the better his future development would be. This would lay a solid foundation for him to eventually become an IN mecha operator.
However, the price of this gene stimulating medicine was also very shocking. Let's put it this way, the money a commoner earned through hard work might only be enough to buy a bottle of the lowest grade gene stimulating medicine. And the higher the grade, the higher the price, the higher the grade by ten times. As one could imagine, only those with power and money could buy level one gene stimulating agents. Commoners could only look at them.
Of course, commoners had the opportunity to obtain better resources. Every newborn baby could be tested at a public testing centre. There were a total of six grades for the test.
Those who were tested to be level F would not receive any subsidies from the state. Level D babies could receive two bottles of level 4 gene stimulating agents every year until they could no longer absorb them. Level C babies could receive two bottles of level 3 gene stimulating agents every year until they could no longer absorb them. Level B babies could receive two bottles of level 2 gene stimulating agents every year until they could no longer absorb them.
Level A babies had two choices. One was to receive two bottles of level 1 gene stimulating agents every year, but they would still be able to grow up freely. The other was to join the military and receive uniform training from the military. There was an unlimited supply of level 1 gene stimulating agents. However, this child could only serve the military for the rest of his life.
Level S babies would be directly taken over by the military for training. Of course, the possibility of this was very low. As mentioned earlier, it was very rare for commoner children to have this kind of nature-defying physique. It was still the same saying — genes determined everything.
And for heirs like Ling Lan who had inherited honourable military service, what they received was a special gene stimulating agent that only the military had. This kind of agent was even purer than the level 1 gene stimulating agents on the market, reaching an efficiency that was infinitely close to 90%. It couldn't be helped. The purification research of gene stimulating agents had reached a bottleneck. To reach the true 90% purity seemed very close, but in reality, there was no way to take that step.
This time, the military had brought a total of ten bottles of special gene stimulating agents. Because these ten bottles were priceless, the military had no choice but to send an ace operator to escort them.
Very quickly, Ling Lan was stripped naked, leaving only the small pair of underwear that had been used as a disguise. One of the soldiers who looked like a military doctor took out an extremely long, gleaming syringe from the box he carried with him, and then drew out one of the bottles of special gene stimulating agent.
Ling Lan pretended to ignore it, but she could only do so. Speaking of which, did a six-month-old baby know what fear was? At this moment, Ling Lan was very glad. In her previous life, because of her treatment, she had been pricked by needles every day until she was numb, so now she could face it calmly without fear.
The syringe was quickly inserted into her arm. The military doctor's skill was very high — Ling Lan really felt like she had been bitten by a mosquito — itchy and numb.
The military doctor slowly pushed the agent into Ling Lan's arm, his expression serious as he watched Ling Lan's reaction. Some babies would not be compatible with the agent, while others would show signs of allergy. In short, the first time injecting a gene stimulating agent into a baby, they had to be very careful to avoid any accidents.
Before Ling Lan could feel anything different, Little Four in her mind appeared uninvited.
"I've tasted something delicious! It's the taste from my memory. No, it's a little different … Tsk, what kind of rubbish is this? It actually has impurities, it affects the taste too much! "Little Four was very unhappy — it felt that it had been teased.
Hearing Little Four's voice, Ling Lan quickly closed her eyes. Didn't they say that the eyes were the windows to the soul? If someone saw something wrong with her eyes, then she would regret it to death. Ling Lan said exasperatedly, "Why did you come out?"
Little Four felt very wronged — it thought that the good stuff from its memory had appeared, but it didn't expect that it was just a knockoff. It said sadly, "I thought that something good had appeared, but I didn't expect it to be a knockoff. There are a lot of impurities in it. If you don't get rid of them, it will be harmful to your body."
Hearing that it was harmful, Ling Lan hurriedly said, "Little Four, can you help me get rid of it?"
Hearing this, Little Four instantly became smug. "Of course, who do you think I am? I'm the smartest mecha king learning machine in the Mandora star system. I can help my contractor do many things, such as get rid of harmful substances."
Ling Lan ignored Little Four's boasting. She was puzzled and asked, "Since this thing is harmful to the body? Why do the people here still inject it into babies? "
"This is actually a good thing, it can increase your body's potential and constitution. It's just that the technology here doesn't seem to be able to purify it to 100%, so there will be residual impurities that will harm the body. However, even so, the benefits still outweigh the harm. It's just that this agent can't be absorbed indefinitely, because when the impurities accumulate to a certain extent, the body will completely lose the ability to absorb the agent, "Little Four explained.
Ling Lan was relieved. As long as there were benefits and there was no danger to her life, she could still accept it. Besides, Little Four also promised that it could get rid of the impurities.
Very quickly, the first dose was absorbed by Ling Lan. The military doctor then injected a second dose, a third dose... by the time the military doctor picked up the eighth dose, his forehead was beaded with sweat, and his initially steady hand was actually trembling.
