Fifteen years old: Unconsciously, you have been working at the uncle's shop for a long time. The uncle is very kind to you, never making you work overtime or do heavy labor. You often experiment with your Gene Editing theories using tree leaves. The several locust trees at the restaurant's entrance have suffered greatly from your abuse, plucked as bare as the head of a ten-year veteran programmer.
However, it wasn't without Gains. You are now finally able to modify some simple life codes. You can't help but marvel at the wonder of life.
But the most surprising was Lin Ran. She actually relied on her willpower to constantly break through her physical limits and reach a Level 2 Gene Warrior. And you couldn't help but once again marvel at Lin Ran's truly monstrous talent.
After experiencing life and death separation, Lin Ran became even more clingy to you. Her behavior also became increasingly unrestrained. Several times, you saw the uncle looking at the two of you with teasing eyes, which made you very embarrassed.
In the same year, someone tried to organize a Resistance against Caesar Life, but there were no Gene Warriors within it, and it was quickly suppressed. The price of Gene Medicine also increased several times at this time.
Those extraordinary creatures would also harass residents irregularly. Because there were no high-level Gene Warriors, each time resulted in several deaths and various serious economic losses. The people of Rong Country were suffering immensely.
Sixteen years old: Your understanding of the Gene Hacker ability deepened. The higher the level of the Gene Warrior, the more complex the life code, and the longer it takes to decipher.
Every year, you would offer sacrifices on the day your father went to the battlefield and your mother was purged. These days constantly reminded you that your great revenge was not yet exacted, and the culprits were still at large. You could not relax.
As there were no high-level Gene Warriors, the butterfly effect became increasingly obvious. Food prices soared, and extraordinary creatures could be seen foraging in the city at any time. Everyone on the streets looked worried, and the uncle's restaurant gradually focused on selling alcohol.
You saw everything with your own eyes, and your disgust for Caesar Life deepened.
You were able to do more and more work at the uncle's shop, and the uncle happily increased your wages. Although it wasn't much, Lin Ran was still very happy. You knew Lin Ran liked sweets, so you often used some of your leftover money to buy her small cakes. Lin Ran was never picky; as long as it was sweet, she would happily put it in her mouth.
Sometimes you could even see her dry chewing on super large pieces of rock candy. Seeing this scene, you felt like all the insulin in your body was secreting wildly.
But since Lin Ran liked it, you had nothing to say. You knew Lin Ran also liked jasmine, so you specially made jasmine-flavored cake and a large jar of jasmine-flavored rock candy for her before her birthday. Lin Ran was incredibly happy, and in front of you, she popped a super large piece of rock candy into her mouth and crunched it loudly, which gave you goosebumps. You sometimes even wondered if mosquitoes would turn into bees on the spot if they sucked Lin Ran's blood?
Seventeen years old: You have a very deep understanding of Gene Editing technology, but it is indeed as you understood: the knowledge level of Gene Medicine is fragmented. It would take an extremely long time to research it on your own, but you still refused to give up.
In the same year, a city closest to the former natural disaster front line was besieged by tens of thousands of natural disasters overnight. In less than a night, hundreds of thousands of people became food for the natural disasters, and the entire city turned into a Blood Nest.
Caesar Life has always been the leader in Rong Country's Gene Technology. The Gene Technology they possess is even more powerful than Rong Country's, especially their clones created without regard for moral boundaries. Although they cannot break through the Gene Lock and replace normal people, it still makes them extremely arrogant and complacent.
In the two most precious years when humanity should have rapidly grown stronger, Caesar Life chose to establish themselves as kings. However, the natural disasters made good use of this breathing time.
Caesar Life never thought that the natural disasters would return so quickly. In their plan, humanity would have at least five years of breathing time, enough for them to research clones that could break through the Gene Lock.
Because there were no high-level Gene Warriors available, they were forced to send out their newly researched clones to fight the natural disasters.
However, the clones themselves could not break open the Gene Lock, so it was clear that the batch of clones they sent out were not very strong and were quickly defeated. Just as they were about to temporarily abandon the clone project and re-conscript soldiers, something unexpected happened.
After continuously devouring several cities, the natural disasters actually stopped their offensive and no longer spread, seemingly waiting for something. The people of Caesar Life were still shaken, and because of this, they reopened Gene Medicine classes at the Gene Research Academy.
To solidify their position, they stipulated that all those who studied Gene Medicine production methods must work for Caesar Life after graduation and sign a non-disclosure agreement. But this still gave you hope.
You decided to apply to the Gene Research Academy. As long as you obtained the Gene Medicine production method, you could rely on Gene Hacker to create a large number of Gene Warriors, thereby changing the current situation and overthrowing Caesar Life.
Without further ado, you checked the admission requirements for the Gene Research Academy. Fortunately, this time, due to Caesar Life's intervention, enrollment was open to all people, and you easily registered.
Lin Ran knew your idea, but she wasn't very supportive. She was afraid that you would be purged by Caesar Life like your mother. She believed that only by becoming strong herself could she truly not be manipulated by others.
You had your first major disagreement, but the cold war only lasted three days before Lin Ran eagerly came back to reconcile with you, stating that she just didn't want you to bear all of this alone, still acting coquettish and cute as before.
The Gene Research Academy was not as easy to get into as you imagined. As expected, you failed. You were very unconvinced and registered for the second exam. While re-studying the textbooks, you didn't forget to continue researching Gene Editing.
Now, you are able to modify many genetic traits. The stray dogs around the restaurant have all been transformed by your Gene Hacker into bundles of muscle, but you still have no clue how to open the Gene Lock. Everything seems to have stalled.
Eighteen years old: You failed the second time. You were extremely confused. After careful investigation, you finally understood that everything about this exam was predetermined. The production method of Gene Medicine would not be available to ordinary people at all, which meant you had wasted nearly two years doing this meaningless thing.
Heartbroken by all of this, an unexpected event occurred when you returned to the restaurant.
