As the Lunar New Year approached, the factories started their holidays.
This was the second year since the beginning of the apocalypse that humans celebrated the Lunar New Year. Compared to the first year, this year was undoubtedly livelier. Outside the skyscrapers, giant red lanterns were hung to symbolize the festive spirit. The streets were also decorated with lanterns and colored banners. It was a festive atmosphere.
Shopping malls, supermarkets, and farmers markets were all filled with people. The long-suppressed desire to consume was reawakened during this period of time.
This year's Lunar New Year supply was even more abundant. Not only were there many new household appliances in the shopping malls, even the farmers markets offered meat for the first time. This attracted countless citizens.
This meat was not from a naturally occurring organism. Of course, it was not from an extreme form of elemental synthesis. It was a type of cultivated meat. There was no limit to its growth and it could grow infinitely in the nutrient solution like cancer cells.
This was the product of an accident. While researching the interstellar creature's flesh and blood, a young intern who had just graduated accidentally discovered that when the interstellar creature was placed in a culture medium and placed in an extreme environment, its flesh and blood would awaken from a state of suspended animation and begin to grow infinitely.
It would absorb all the nutrients in its surroundings, divide its cells, and rapidly strengthen itself. This was to resist the dangerous environment and maintain the vitality of the flesh.
Of course, if that was all, the flesh of the Extraordinary lifeform that was as hard as metal would be completely inedible even if it multiplied in large numbers. The only result would be more experimental consumables, but it was almost meaningless to the astonishing reserves that had filled an entire warehouse and could not be used up for experiments for at least a hundred years.
After discovering this phenomenon, the laboratory did not give up. Instead, they continued to experiment on this pile of flesh for half a year. Every once in a while, they would take samples and compare them. In the end, they discovered a shocking piece of news.
As the flesh continued to multiply, the researchers found that the mass of flesh was gradually degenerating. Perhaps the environment it was in could not support such a high-level flesh. In order to adapt to the new environment, every time it proliferated, there would be subtle signs of degeneration. The hardness of the flesh began to soften, the invasiveness decreased, and even the genes changed.
After continuous multiplication, the flesh that was put on the market could no longer be called the flesh of the interstellar creature. It was a type of flesh that had adapted to the environment and was only Level 3.

"Give me some dough, I'm almost out of dough!" Zhao Yali said as she swiftly wrapped the dough with the stuffing.
"How did you wrap it so fast?" Wang Xiaguang said in surprise. She had only made less than one-fifth of the face, but Zhao Yali had already finished.
"Here you are!" Huang Jiahui said.
"When I was young, my family used to run a snack bar. Every night, I would make dumplings and steamed buns with my parents. Zhao Yali took the mask that Huang Jiahui handed to her. Her tone didn't change much. Time was the best medicine, and it had been so long, the grief of the past had already faded away.
At Luo Yuan's house, everyone was sitting around the round table in the living room, making dumplings. The atmosphere was very lively.
The mutated human watched from the side for a while and seemed to find it interesting. She also secretly picked up a piece of dough and learned to wrap the dumplings. However, it turned out that she did not have this talent. Her sharp claws always pierced through the dough, and the dumplings she made were all kinds of strange shapes. The meat filling was exposed, but she still enjoyed it.
Wang Shishi glanced at the pile of unknown things in front of her and said in disgust, "You're so stupid. When the time comes, you can eat the dumplings you made yourself!"
Hearing Wang Shishi say that she was stupid, the mutated human suddenly pouted and seemed to be very angry. She reluctantly continued to make a few more dumplings. She put down her pride and put the dumplings she made earlier into a small basket. Then, she carried the small basket in one hand and dragged the chair with the other. She left Wang Shishi's side and walked towards Luo Yan and Luo Yu. She gestured for them to make space for her.
The two girls did not mind and moved the chair enthusiastically. Then, the mutated human put the chair between them.
Now, Wang Shishi is not the only one who can play with her. Compared with Wang Shishi who often says bad things about her, Luo Yu and Luo Yan are her best friends in her heart. She jumps on the seat and looks at Wang Shishi proudly, causing Wang Shishi to snort coldly!
However, the mutated human was naturally active. She only did things for three minutes. She lost her patience after making dumplings for a while. However, in order not to be laughed at by Wang Shishi, she still continued to make dumplings. Fortunately, the sound of footsteps outside saved her in time. Her slightly sharp ears moved slightly like a rabbit's, and she immediately jumped out of the chair and rushed outside like lightning.
"It should be Luo Yuan." Huang Jiahui said with a smile as she looked at the disappearing mutated human.
"Daddy is back!" Luo Fan confirmed. The ears of the clones were more sensitive than the others. Among all of them, only the mutated human could barely compare.
Sure enough, after a while, Luo Yuan walked through the door and the mutated human followed closely behind him.
"Daddy!"
"Daddy!"
Their children hurriedly stood up to greet them, looking very obedient.
Luo Yuan smiled and nodded. He put the cardboard box in his hand on the ground and took off his coat. Luo Yu immediately took it and hung it on the hanger. She then asked expectantly, "Daddy, what is this?" “
It's a New Year's gift for all of you! "Luo Yuan said with a smile.
"What gift?" Luo Yu hugged Luo Yuan's arm and asked coquettishly.
Luo Yuan quietly withdrew his arm. In the past two years, the few of them had grown at an amazing speed. They were now teenagers, especially his two daughters, who had their menarche half a year ago. It was not appropriate for them to be so close to each other.
He took out a gift box from the cardboard box. There was also a special festive packaging on it. He then passed it to Luo Yu, "Open it and you will know!"
"Daddy, I want one too!" Luo Yan immediately shouted.
"Everyone has one! Everyone has one!"
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, the mutated human reminded them impatiently.
Luo Yuan laughed and patted her head, "Of course I can't forget you!"
Then, Luo Yuan distributed a gift to everyone. Even Ye Qiuyu got one.
After Luo Yu opened it, she found a pair of contact lenses inside. There was also a bottle of cleaning fluid inside. She did not even need to think to know that it was not a contact lens, "Daddy, what is this?"
"It's the latest portable quantum computer. You can wear it on the contact lens and use your mind to turn it on." Luo Yuan briefly explained, "It can connect to the internet and perform long-distance communication. It also has environmental detection and analysis functions. Its computing power is not any weaker than the previous generation. Hmm, there are some other functions. You can read the manual later."
"It's not fun to connect to the internet." Wang Shishi mumbled to herself.
As the leader of the military and government in a totalitarian society, Luo Yuan and his family members were naturally the most important customers of the logistics department. Almost every once in a while, there would be new high-tech products sent to them. For example, the quantum computer. Wang Shishi's bedroom had all the versions from the first to the third generation. Of course, she was not unfamiliar with the internet.
Speaking of the current internet, Wang Shishi was extremely disappointed. It was far from being comparable to the internet before the apocalypse. It was so simple that it was like a school's local area network. Not to mention that there were less than 100 websites, even if there were more than 10 websites, most of them were academic journals. The rest were news or educational websites. To ordinary people, almost no one would visit them. Websites such as games and videos were hard to find. There was almost no entertainment.
Even the communication software was lackluster. Apart from the basic communication function, the commercial and entertainment functions were completely stripped away. The interface was so simple that it made people want to send a few metal knives to the developers.
Even so, Wang Shishi couldn't wait to put on the microcomputer that looked like contact lenses. She was an avid fan of electronic products. Even if she didn't have much entertainment, she still spent a lot of time on the Internet, browsing the latest news or reading some interesting e-books. After she put on the microcomputer, she blinked her eyes and found that she didn't feel anything strange.
"Eh, how do I turn it on?"
As soon as she thought about it, Wang Shishi was shocked to find that her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Yes, it's controlled by brainwaves!" She recalled the operation method that Luo Yuan had mentioned earlier.
The light was not dazzling, it was quite soft. In the blink of an eye, the micro-computer had already turned on. She could not help but hold her breath. It was a classic picture of a blue sky and white clouds. It was so realistic that she felt like she was there, as if she had returned to the earth before the disaster.
Fortunately, she was not a sad person. Soon, she continued to explore. She found that the transparency of the picture in front of her could be adjusted automatically. When the transparency reached 50%, it would not affect her walking at all.
The operation was extremely simple. As long as it was a clear thought, it was very responsive and there were almost no mistakes. At the same time, some unconscious thoughts would also be automatically blocked so that it would not affect the operation.
Human thoughts were constantly being produced and destroyed. If it was too sensitive, it would not be able to use it unless the user concentrated his Will.
Wang Shishi also found a few movies inside. They were all movies she had seen before. She chose one of them and prepared to see the immersion effect of this mini brain. After all, since the picture had this effect, the video should be even better.
The next moment, she felt a strong sense of impact. She felt as if she had directly entered the virtual world of the movie. Compared to it, the three-dimensional screen was completely rubbish.
At this moment, Wang Shishi suddenly felt a deep hatred in her heart, "Too bad there are no games. What a waste of such a high-tech product."
…
This portable computer was an initial attempt by the Computer Research Department to create a personal portable terminal for humans using the Glassian's portable terminal.
It used some groundbreaking results, especially the brainwave control technology. There was no Glassian technology that could be used as a reference. It was a technology that was developed by humans themselves.
Perhaps to the Glassian technology, this technology had long been obsolete. Compared to the Glassian's personal terminal that was directly connected to the brain of a living being, it could create a virtual network that was difficult to distinguish between real and fake. The level of technology between the two was almost a dimension apart.
However, no matter what, this was the first time that humans had broken away from the Glassian technology. It was a technology that was independently developed and had great practical significance.
