Volume 2 Test Site No. 1 Chapter 27 Biotechnology Testing Field
In fact, Lin Xu was a little confused. During the three thousand years that the Norse people were hunting down the traitors, didn’t the technology of the Norse civilization develop further?
If it were Earth, based on the level of technological advancement on Earth that Lin Xu knows now, three thousand years would be enough for Earthlings to develop a curvature engine, and they would have also developed autonomous machines long ago.
It didn't even take humans three thousand years, but only five hundred years, when long-distance fleets were sailing in space and a large number of humans were in hibernation, to develop the curvature engine.
If the Noel people had a warp engine in the past three thousand years, they could have formed a faster fleet, chased the rebels at faster than the speed of light, and easily eliminated them.
But the Norse never did so.
It can be seen that the Noel people never developed a curvature engine.
Is the warp drive really that hard to make?
Lin Xu is not a scientist, so he doesn’t understand.
But it seems like the people on Earth can make it very easily.
There are also autonomous machines, which Lin Xu had not realized before.
But now we have really seen alien civilizations and the ruins of the battlefield where alien warships bombarded each other.
Lin Xucai suddenly realized that human self-regulating machinery seemed to be quite powerful.
The continued explosive development of technology on Earth has left Lin Xu a little confused.
Regarding the Noel civilization and the chaotic energy, Lin Xu originally thought that these were the biggest gains from this battlefield ruins.
So after seeing the huge ruins of the ancient battlefield up close, Lin Xu ordered the Qingfeng to return to Earth.
After all, there is no point in continuing to stay on the edge of the ruins. It would be better to go back to your own courtyard, watch some TV series, play some games, or something.
Anyway, there are only three months left to reach the target galaxy, so Lin Xu does not plan to hibernate. He plans to use these three months to catch up on various film and television works and games from the 21st to the 23rd century.
He had made up for some of it before, but it was impossible to finish watching the massive amount of film and television works spanning more than two hundred years so quickly. Lin Xu still had a lot of inventory to enjoy.
So while the autonomous machine continued to explore the ruins of the ancient battlefield, Lin Xu had already put the ruins behind him and spent several days watching anime in his own small courtyard.
According to the original plan, the Earth will stay on the edge of the ruins for ten days. After ten days, regardless of whether there are any new discoveries, it will set sail and continue its journey.
Just like that, time came to the seventh day. Lin Xu woke up early in the morning with the light of the artificial sun as usual. After washing up and having a breakfast of steamed buns and tofu pudding, he sat under a tree in the yard, holding a tablet in his hand, and started watching the new anime of 2055.
That is, Lin Xu entered a frozen hibernation state, a new episode five years later.
It was not until mid-morning that I was awakened by the sound coming from an old radio on the table next to me.
"Master, we found a space shuttle in the ruins." Zhenxing's voice came.
"Space shuttle? There must be a lot of these things!" Lin Xu asked puzzled.
So many battleships have been broken into pieces, so what's so special about discovering a small aircraft like a space shuttle?
"It's a space shuttle made by humans." Zhenxing added.
Lin Xu, who had originally been unconvinced, immediately sat up from the recliner.
However, that’s not all, Zhenxing also added an even more explosive news.
"According to the test, there is a dormant chamber in the space shuttle, and there are signs of life inside."
"Is he from Earth?" Lin Xu asked nervously.
"It doesn't look like it." Zhenxing replied after seemingly hesitating for a moment.
"It doesn't look like it?" Lin Xu was puzzled.
It was not until Lin Xu saw a holographic video sent by Zhenxing that he understood what he meant.
What appeared in the video was an old-fashioned hibernation chamber, the same kind that Lin Xu had used when he slept for ten thousand years in the 21st century. It was a not-so-good refrigerated hibernation chamber.
However, this hibernation chamber has one advantage, which is that it saves energy or even requires no energy. It can remain frozen as long as it remains still.
Unlike the later hibernation chambers, the experience is good, but the energy consumption is too high.
Such a small space shuttle certainly cannot supply enough energy.
Through the glass on the hatch of the hibernation chamber, Lin Xu also saw the frozen figure inside the chamber.
It turned out to be an extremely beautiful female elf with shiny blonde hair, long ears, and wearing fantasy-style armor.
Yes, the kind of elves in fantasy works.
"This is unscientific!" Lin Xu said immediately.
"Master, we have extracted her hair for DNA testing, and the results show that it is very scientific." Zhenxing replied.
"What do you mean?"
"Her gene sequence has obviously been artificially modified. It can be said that this is an artificial species."
"Man-made? Did our people do it?" Lin Xu confirmed.
"This method of modifying the gene sequence shows traces of human manipulation. We even found a fragment in the gene sequence that looks like a signature authentication fragment. The signature is from the Lunar Gene Research Institute, so if nothing unexpected happens, this should be a species created by humans."
"Has human genetic technology reached such a level?" Lin Xu said a little incredulously.
The idea of having a signature in genes is incredible.
"Just like the warp drive and anti-gravity device, human biotechnology has obviously made great progress."
"Elf!" Lin Xu felt a little emotional.
He didn't know what humans were thinking when they created this species, but it seemed quite romantic to create a legendary magical creature, didn't it?
"There can't be only one elf, right? Where is her tribe? And according to my reasoning, since they did it, they couldn't just create one elf tribe. Maybe there will be dwarves|orcs as well."
"According to the route recorded in the space shuttle, she is from the galaxy we are targeting this time."
"She set out from the target galaxy three thousand years ago and took two thousand years to arrive here. As a result, the space shuttle crashed into the ruins of the battlefield, and the originally set awakening program did not start. She has been sleeping until now."
"So, our destination might be a fantasy world now, right?" Lin Xu had a strange expression on his face.
"It should be said that this is a testing ground for the great development of biotechnology! According to the genetic test just now, the theoretical lifespan limit of this elf has reached one thousand years."
"If humans ten thousand years ago had left behind technical information in the target galaxy, your life span should have been greatly extended. Your current life span of five hundred years is still too short."
"How much can it be improved?" When talking about being able to live a few more years, Lin Xu's heart suddenly warmed up.
"Three thousand years is no problem, or even longer." Zhenxing replied.
"Three thousand years? Longer than this elf?" Lin Xu was no longer calm.
"This is the technology that humans are preparing to apply to themselves. Using it on elves may just be for theoretical verification. Naturally, it will not maximize the effect. As long as it can verify that the theory is valid, it will be enough." Zhenxing explained.
"I understand. Let's continue our journey in three days." Lin Xu is now full of anticipation for the target galaxy.
Lin Xu was extremely curious about what a test site would look like after the great development of biotechnology.
"Master, do we need to wake her up and ask for some information?" Zhen Xing asked.
"Wake it up." Lin Xu looked at the elf in the holographic video hibernation chamber, thought about it and nodded.
