No matter the time, biotechnology was something that needed to be treated seriously.
If other technologies went out of control, they could at most destroy the civilization and leave behind the seeds of life. However, if biotechnology went out of control, it could destroy the entire life system.
That was why Tang En did not want to use Dobin's biotechnology.
However, the situation had reached a point where he had no choice but to compromise.
"Do it!"
"But," Fiona said with difficulty. "If we accept such a modification, will we still be us? That's why I don't agree! "
"That's why I said it very clearly," Jean said helplessly. "The body is just a vessel. The soul is the foundation. As long as our soul does not change, no matter what the vessel becomes, we will still be us!"
Angus nodded. "Look, our original bodies have been destroyed. This is a new body that was born from the Pool of Nisclaire. However, we are still us. What are you worried about?"
Jean said seriously, "The Chaos army is approaching our last line of defense. We need a lot of combat power. That's why I think that we should all accept the modification. Then, we can connect the magical network to the core psionic reactor on Lorita and upgrade the spellcasting system to psionic power. This will strengthen our offensive capabilities. This is our only hope!"
Fiona bit her lower lip and looked at Tang En. "I personally reject it. Aurelia's attitude is similar to mine. However, now that you're back, it's up to you to decide —"
"Warning! A large number of Chaos Fear Demons are attacking the shield at three o'clock. Requesting support from the Golden Giant Statues! "
An ear-piercing alarm suddenly sounded, and the entire hall immediately became busy in an orderly manner. They had long been accustomed to this kind of situation.
"Do it!"
"Tang En?!"
Tang En said resolutely. "Now is not the time to hesitate about the purity of the creatures! If we don't modify them, we will all die! If we modify them, we might still be able to survive! "
"We were created by the Gods. Who said that we have to be like this?!"
"Jean is right! The body is just a vessel. The soul is our foundation! "
"Hope lives forever in our souls! We will never succumb to the despair brought about by Chaos! "
"Now, Dobin, in the name of the leader of the Prandal Alliance, I order you to immediately start the national genetic modification program!"
"Let's start with us!"
Jean took a step forward and said very seriously, "Please be sure to broadcast it live on the Internet so that everyone can see the process of our transformation and the changes in our strength before and after. I think this will make it easier for them to accept. "
Tang En hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.
With Tang En's permission, Dobin and the others quickly prepared the materials related to biological modification and broadcasted it to the entire network.
Underground Ellington.
Now, the most attractive place was not the square or the bar, but the Internet cafe.
After finishing their shifts on the battlefield, the warriors could finally take a breather. What they desired the most was to lie in the cabins of the internet café and enter the world of the magic energy network. While their bodies were completely relaxed, their minds could also reminisce about the peaceful world of the past in the magic energy network.
It was precisely because of this that those cults spread propaganda to make everyone hide in the magic energy network. For them, the world in the magic energy network was the perfect space to escape from reality.
Just as the netizens were indulging in the virtual space, a broadcast suddenly appeared on the Internet, causing all the netizens to be stunned.
"There will be a live broadcast on the Internet tomorrow where Master Jean and Master Angus will undergo biological genetic modification? Then it will be promoted to the whole nation?! "
"... Biological genetic modification? What does that mean? "
"It allows living beings to undergo directional mutation and obtain immunity to psionic radiation. At the same time, they can learn to cast spells and quickly obtain the ability to master psionic energy..."
"System, help me find out what psionic energy is."
"Search completed. Psionic energy is a high-level energy that originates from the Void. It is the product of the weakening of the Void. The well-known magic power is the energy produced after psionic energy is weakened again."
"Hiss! In other words, if we accept this genetic modification, we can master power more powerful than magic power?! "
"Come to think of it, the two masters, Jean and Angus, fell in the war before. Later, they were resurrected thanks to the power of Gaia Goddess. However, they lost their power and had to re-cultivate for more than two years before they barely regained their Grandmaster-level strength. Now that they can quickly obtain more power than before by accepting this modification, they must be happy."
"No, no, no. My question is, if there is such a technology, why didn't Tang En Majesty let us use it before?"
After a simple search, the various community communication groups on the magic energy network exploded. The topic of discussion was all about genetic modification.
These Prandal people, who had no understanding of genes at all, did not know how dangerous the concept of editing and modifying DNA was. They only wondered why they were not allowed to use such a convenient way to become stronger earlier.
If everyone could become legendary masters now, equipped with all kinds of fierce weapons and equipment, would Prandal still be in its current state?
Obviously not!
Perhaps Tang En was worried that these people would feel fear, so he did not mention the possible risks in the network broadcast. Therefore, these people only saw the temptation of becoming strong.
"Maybe he's worried that if we all become legendary masters, it will shake the position of traditional masters like them?"
"It's not impossible. If I were Tang En Majesty, I'm afraid I wouldn't allow so many masters to appear."
"The stronger the power, the greater the destructive power, and the more dangerous the world is. If there were really so many legendary masters, would our lives have been better before?"
Now, many people were reminiscing the years when their lives were better under Tang En's leadership. If not for the sudden arrival of Chaos, their lives would have been better.
It was a pity that everything could not return to the past now.
Early the next morning, Tang En and the others turned on the live broadcast to the whole world. Everyone in six bases, dozens of underground cities, two satellites, including the Martyr's Palace, and everywhere, including the Martyr's Palace, were watching the magic energy projection holographic screen.
Jean and Angus had already entered an empty laboratory.
Genetic modification did not require surgery. It could be completed by injecting a drug. In order to let the audience have a clear understanding of their changes, they were asked to test them directly after injecting the drug.
Soon, two tubes of transparent green drug were brought over by Dobin.
"After injecting this drug, it can destroy the protein chain of the original gene, and then insert your own information in the process of reconstructing the gene chain to complete the rewriting process. The best part is that its reaction is chain-like and can be continuously accelerated until it rewrites all the genes in the body," Dobin said as he held the gun in his hand.
As Dobin spoke, he raised the syringe gun and glanced at Tang En, who was beside him. Then, he decisively stabbed Gene's arm and fired.
"Because the modification process needs to destroy the gene chain, it will consume a lot of energy. You will also feel a lot of pain. According to the calculation of animal experiments, this process will last about an hour. I hope you can endure it."
Jean smiled proudly. "After so many years, what kind of pain can make me yield? I can — "
His face suddenly changed, and his veins bulged. He bent over in pain and could not speak. The audience could clearly see some strange changes happening to his body. With the injection point as the center, his skin bulged and cracked, and his cell tissues began to die and regenerate. Soon, a layer of skin fell off from his body — a skin made entirely of dead cells!
Angus had also received the injection. Obviously, he could not bear such pain. Everyone saw the two of them struggling in pain.
"It looks terrible!"
"Even Master Jean is in so much pain. Can we really bear it when we receive the modification?"
Of course, there were also those who had worked very hard to become Apocalyptics. "It's just pain! Just by enduring this kind of pain, we can obtain the powerful strength of the Legendary Stage. It's too easy! I can't wait to receive the modification! "
"Indeed, thinking back to the pain we suffered when we wanted to advance, it's too easy to become stronger like this."
Later, almost all the public opinion was one-sided. Those people all came to their senses. Just an hour of pain and they could become Legendary Masters. This was like a pie falling from the sky, okay?!
Was there any easier, faster, and easier way to become stronger than this?
No!
After thinking this through, they no longer looked at the changes in Jean and Angus with fear, but full of anticipation.
They were looking forward to seeing the results of the modification.
Soon, an hour passed. Jean and Angus were finally done with the modification. When the two of them broke free from the thick layer of dead skin, all the audience was stunned.
"I want to receive the modification!"
A middle-aged female audience said instantly, "No one can stop me!"
"These … are the two Masters just now?"
The audience was stunned. "They have been reborn, right?!"
Although they were sweating profusely due to the pain, their skin was as white as a baby's, and it immediately attracted the attention of those beauty-conscious women.
Tang En was in a daze. "Dobin, modification has a whitening effect?"
Dobin spread out his hands. "When modifying genes, the cells accelerate their division and rebirth, which is equivalent to completely replacing them with young cells in a short period of time. Also, I used our genetic technology to modify the division speed of the cells in the body, lengthen the length of the telomeres, increase the maximum number of divisions, and extend the life of the modified person..."
Damn!
Tang En cursed in his heart. If you had said earlier that you had this genetic technology, you would have said so earlier! What was I worried about?! Those people would probably fight to receive the modification!
What was more tempting than a long life? — Of course, it was to obtain more power while obtaining a long life!
With one injection, it was all there was!
