Chapter 599 Unexpected Changes

Ning Chen had no hesitation about Song Xiyun's genetic modification, which made Song Xiyun a little disappointed. However, since this was Song Xiyun's own decision, Song Xiyun did not have too many thoughts about it, but adjusted her condition according to Ning Chen's requirements.

Being in a very good condition will allow her to better complete the genetic modification project. Song Xiyun is naturally well aware of this and will not treat this modification as a joke.

Song Xiyun is the second experimenter to carry out human genetic modification experiments after Ning Chen. Although Ning Chen was the only example of this experiment before, in this second experiment, Ning Chen also made many adjustments to the details of the experiment.

The first and most important point is that in this human genetic modification experiment, the subjects will no longer be kept awake throughout the whole process. Instead, they will be put in an anesthetized state, so as to ensure that the subjects will not feel great pain to the greatest extent.

Secondly, during the entire genetic modification recovery process, Ning Chen also retained a longer recovery time. After the experimenter had just completed the genetic modification, he did not need to work immediately, but could slowly adapt to the new genes.

After all, this is not a very urgent project, and it is completely acceptable even if the experimenters spend a few more months to adapt to such changes.

In addition, Ning Chen also made modifications to many other details. These improvements can allow the experimenters to complete the entire genetic modification process with a better experience.

"Okay, Song Xiyun, please relax your body and mind now. We will then carry out this genetic modification on you. You won't feel too much pain during this process. It will be like a dream..."

Under Ning Chen's control, Song Xiyun officially started this genetic modification experiment.

Just as Ning Chen had just said, Song Xiyun's genetic modification process was indeed not painful. After the modification had been going on for a while, Song Xiyun's sensory nerves had been paralyzed, which made Song Xiyun not feel any pain at all.

Soon, Song Xiyun entered a continuous dream state, and her consciousness seemed to have jumped out of her body and she no longer suffered the pain in her body.

In the dream, under the leadership of Ning Chen, the Blue Star civilization successfully defeated the "space civilization" that attempted to destroy the entire universe, and repaired the barrier of the antimatter universe.

From then on, the entire universe returned to a very peaceful state, and there was no longer anything that could threaten the Blue Star civilization.

Ning Chen, Song Xiyun and others were not harmed in this battle and can finally continue to live a normal life.

After this, Ning Chen and Song Xiyun restored their genes to normal. They no longer looked like robots, and there was no normal human emotion in their eyes.

But dreams are just dreams after all. When Song Xiyun finally woke up, she realized that all this was just her fantasy.

"Song Xiyun, you finally woke up. Your genetic modification work has been completed. Now your body has gradually adapted to the new genes and you no longer feel obvious pain. We will also stop using anesthetics on your body..."

Listening to Ning Chen's words, Song Xiyun also began to feel her new body.

Just as Ning Chen said, Song Xiyun now no longer feels any pain, and even other feelings have become much weaker than before.

Originally, Song Xiyun thought that after experiencing such a change, she would find it difficult to accept her current situation, but now it seems that Song Xiyun was indeed thinking too much.

Without the influence of strong emotional factors, Song Xiyun would not feel worried about these things at all, but instead felt a lot more relaxed.

"Well, Ning Chen, I feel very good now. I don't think I need to rest any more. I can work with you right away."

Originally, Ning Chen hoped that Song Xiyun could rest for a while longer, but since Song Xiyun took the initiative to say so, Ning Chen was willing to let Song Xiyun participate earlier.

After all, judging from Song Xiyun's various physical data, Song Xiyun's current physical condition is indeed very good, because Song Xiyun's physical fitness is very good, which also allows Song Xiyun to recover faster than others.

It would be more beneficial than harmful for everyone if Song Xiyun could get back to work as soon as possible.

Song Xiyun also very much hoped that she could get such an opportunity, so she immediately started to study with Ning Chen various matters related to fighting against "space civilization".

The feeling of working on research with Ning Chen again made Song Xiyun feel as if she had returned to the past. Due to the lack of emotional factors, this feeling was ultimately missing something, but in terms of work efficiency, they were now much better than before.

They do not need to use any auxiliary tools to keep themselves fully engaged in their work, just like robots, and never feel tired.

Until their bodies tell them that they need to rest for a while, they will take a short break as required and talk about their recent feelings.

"Ning Chen, genetic modification is indeed a good choice. Now I am not as sentimental as before. I don't even know what the feeling of discomfort is. Before, I was too easily sentimental about some things."

"That's right, Song Xiyun, this is one of the benefits that genetic modification brings to us. After truly experiencing this modification, I'm afraid we won't want to go back to our former selves. The state of being controlled by emotions all the time will indeed have a negative impact on us at some point."

This idea is undoubtedly a bit terrifying. Ning Chen and Song Xiyun had already agreed that after successfully resolving the crisis related to "space civilization", they would modify their genes back to their previous state and resume normal life.

But after just a few changes in their genes, their thoughts began to change, and this change was something they had not anticipated before.

Originally, they carried out such genetic modification only to enable them to fight against "space civilization", and they used such extreme methods to quickly improve their abilities.

And when they felt the benefits of genetic modification, even if they put aside the issue of "space civilization", they did not want to return to their former selves. At this time, Song Xiyun suddenly thought of something and said to Ning Chen with a calm expression:

"Ning Chen... Tell me, if all people who undergo genetic modification don't want to return to their previous state like us, what effects will this bring?"

When Ning Chen heard Song Xiyun's question, he did not seem to care too much.

"Then just let them all stay like this. Anyway, genetic modification is a project with completely controllable risks. Since such modification can make our civilization stronger, why should we worry about other problems?"

"That's true. This is indeed not something we need to worry about. But Ning Chen, I have another thing I need to tell you. This should be a surprise that we have not expected before."

When talking about this, there was a slight hint of happiness on Song Xiyun's face. This was also caused by the emotional factors that Song Xiyun still retained after the genetic modification.

After hearing what Song Xiyun said, Ning Chen asked curiously:

"Song Xiyun, what exactly is this so-called surprise?"

"Ning Chen, I feel like my ability to predict danger has suddenly increased a lot. Although according to previous estimates, after genetic modification, my ability will definitely be slightly improved, but in fact, this improvement is much stronger than we expected before..."

Following Song Xiyun's explanation, Ning Chen also noticed this and knew that what Song Xiyun said was indeed not groundless.

Although Song Xiyun had a very powerful ability to predict danger before, this ability was still relatively limited. For example, when that "space civilization" obtained a large amount of antimatter energy, Song Xiyun did not predict it in advance.

This is because the spread of dangerous information also takes time. With Song Xiyun's previous abilities, she could only sense the existence of dangerous information at a speed slower than the propagation of electromagnetic waves.

After genetic modification, Song Xiyun's speed in sensing this dangerous information has even exceeded the fastest known speed in the universe - the speed of light. This is undoubtedly a very shocking thing.

Of course, Ning Chen had already prepared himself mentally for this. This was also the important reason why Ning Chen insisted on letting Song Xiyun complete the genetic modification design plan by herself without making any modifications.

But when Ning Chen really learned about this matter, he was still very surprised by the beneficial effect.

"Yes, it seems that the emotional factors that you deliberately retained, Song Xiyun, really played a very important role. My gene modification plan is very successful. With your successful example, I believe that more people will be willing to join this modification."

"Ning Chen, you've already seen this. Actually, I didn't think so much when I was designing this. I just didn't want to be too extreme."

"It's okay, Song Xiyun. Perhaps this is part of your ability, allowing you to make more beneficial choices in the dark. This ability of yours can help us better fight against 'space civilization' and 'robot' civilization, just like giving us the ability to predict the future."

After that, Song Xiyun used his evolved abilities to sense some dangers that might threaten the Blue Star civilization.

"Ning Chen, according to my feeling, the robot civilization has indeed found a way to crack our way into the virtual space by controlling robots. If we use the same method to enter the virtual space, then our high-dimensional quantum energy body will be directly absorbed by the virtual space."

"It's okay. This is something we expected. What makes me more curious is what the current state of this 'space civilization' is like, and whether they have taken any new actions..."

After learning about Ning Chen's ideas, Song Xiyun began to use her ability again and tried to explore some crises in the direction of "space civilization".

After the ability was upgraded, Song Xiyun's ability has changed from being only passive to being actively used in some situations, and she can even set the scope of the ability.

After repeated exploration for a period of time, Song Xiyun finally succeeded in determining the scope of his ability and perceived some new information.

At this time, Song Xiyun's expression changed slightly, and her brows became slightly wrinkled.

Normally, this frowning expression is not that serious, but for Song Xiyun, whose emotional factors have been greatly reduced, this undoubtedly shows that the current situation is not optimistic.

Ning Chen also noticed the changes on Song Xiyun's face very keenly, and asked Song Xiyun quickly:
"Song Xiyun, what's the latest development of 'Space Civilization'? Tell me about it quickly."

"Okay, but I can only vaguely sense a lot of things and can't understand the details."

As she spoke, Song Xiyun told Ning Chen all the dangerous information she had just sensed.

According to Song Xiyun's exploration, this "space civilization" has continued to mine antimatter energy over this period of time, and the speed and scale of mining are larger than before.

This is related to Ning Chen's previous information exploration action on "space civilization". This "space civilization" realized that it has been noticed by other advanced civilizations, so it must make its own civilization stronger.

The mining and utilization of such large amounts of antimatter energy also makes the technological strength of this "space civilization" even stronger, and it is fully capable of creating larger-scale folded spaces.

Fortunately, up to now, this "space civilization" has not found any trace of the Blue Star civilization, which means that the safety of the Blue Star civilization can still be guaranteed for the time being.
