00:00:00Russia District 52 Muon Research Center.
00:00:02What does this mean? I'm authorized.
00:00:04How is that possible?
00:00:05The Muon base has long been abandoned, buried underground for a hundred years.
00:00:09I'm only 18.
00:00:11My leg. Ow, my leg. Get in.
00:00:14Ouch, my leg got stuck.
00:00:17Don't move, it'll be over.
00:00:26Hansai, I feel like we'll come back empty-handed this trip.
00:00:29Friend, hey there.
00:00:32Who are you?
00:00:33I'm Hulinjo. I'm in charge here. Chief Professor of the Hulinjo. Muon Research Center.
00:00:39Whoa, Master. Did we just run into a ghost, or what?
00:00:44Don't worry. Right now I'm just a 3D projection. A freaking projection.
00:00:49I had to pre-record it talking to thin air in front of a camera. Freaking thing.
00:00:54Ha ha ha.
00:00:56I'm here in person, too. I can take you to meet me, and show you around the Muon Research Center.
00:01:04A tattooed scientist?
00:01:06Don't mind me. I studied abroad when I was young. I went astray, and spent a few years on the
00:01:11streets.
00:01:12Scientists are freaking human, too. Besides, what's past is past. Now is now.
00:01:18Muons, also called mu-particles, are a type of elementary particle.
00:01:21What the heck is a muon?
00:01:23It has unique quantum properties. Its spin is 12. Its existence and behavior can be described by quantum field theory.
00:01:29The muon carries one unit of negative charge. Its rest mass is about 207 times that of an electron, roughly
00:01:35105.6 mVc.
00:01:36It can be seen as a super heavy version of an electron. 16 years ago, I became totally fascinated with
00:01:41muons.
00:01:42I originally aimed to develop a new energy source.
00:01:45It's an unstable particle with an average decay. Lifetime of 2.2 microseconds at rest.
00:01:53Brilliant and fleeting.
00:01:55What boosted my confidence was that, six years ago, we made a major breakthrough.
00:02:00We invented a strong magnetic field trap. It confines muons in a specific region of space.
00:02:05We've captured them. We've finally captured the muons.
00:02:09Unfortunately, over the next ten years, we achieved nothing.
00:02:14We were under immense pressure, ridiculed by our peers, targeted by the Science Council, and our funding was pulled.
00:02:23I myself had full confidence in muons.
00:02:26I encouraged them. I comforted them.
00:02:29But I knew they were about to break.
00:02:31I believe muons are tied to creation, and tied to the most fundamental unit of the universe.
00:02:36I hold a deep conviction.
00:02:38Once the muon is fully developed, human civilization will leap to the next level.
00:02:43For ten years, I've experimented on and catalyzed muons.
00:02:47One of those experiments went wrong.
00:02:49I passed out in the explosion, but in that instant, I felt my consciousness sucked into time.
00:02:56As if I crossed the 93-billion light-year universe, and reached the primordial singularity, I saw a set of
00:03:02numbers.
00:03:03Twenty-four. I don't know what it was.
00:03:05Or what twenty-four means.
00:03:07Hmm. But the shock I felt, every pore opening wide, filled me with infinite awe.
00:03:13And in that moment, my resolve to develop muon technology became utterly unshakable.
00:03:17After that, I saw you.
00:03:19I saw you found the deep-buried muon research center.
00:03:23After Earth became a wasteland.
00:03:25I saw your face.
00:03:26I also saw your robot.
00:03:28I know you come from the future.
00:03:32Ah.
00:03:32Ah. So you set my access clearance for me.
00:03:36A hundred years ago.
00:03:37Master, he's a 3D projection.
00:03:39It seems we can't interact.
00:03:41It's all his pre-recorded clips.
00:03:43When I woke up, I told others how amazing muons are.
00:03:47Dammit, absolutely no one believed me.
00:03:48Including my good friend from Area 53.
00:03:50Dr. Song from the Genetics Institute.
00:03:52He didn't believe it either.
00:03:53So what if I used to be a thug?
00:03:55So what if the entire scientific community hates me?
00:03:58I don't serve them.
00:04:00My ambition is laughable yet great.
00:04:03All this knowledge is useless.
00:04:05If it can't benefit humanity.
00:04:08Humanity will eventually face an energy crisis.
00:04:10Efficient, stable new energy is humanity's only hope.
00:04:14I can't become a torch.
00:04:16But I'll burn myself out to be a single spark.
00:04:18To light the exploration path for generations to come.
00:04:22Look, Earth's energy is already exhausted.
00:04:26Everyone's migrating.
00:04:27Including the muon research center.
00:04:29Truth is, it has no way out.
00:04:32Even on another planet.
00:04:34It'll just be absorbed or disbanded.
00:04:36But will interstellar exploration really go smoothly?
00:04:40Is our current energy tech really enough?
00:04:42I'm running out of time.
00:04:44But I made a bet with my sworn rivals.
00:04:47They thought I was joking when I said,
00:04:49I, Waleen Jome, won't leave.
00:04:52This damn research center for one single day.
00:04:54Until I develop usable muon technology.
00:05:05Come in.
00:05:06I can see the future you.
00:05:08But I don't know when.
00:05:10I don't know how many years later you found this place.
00:05:12Now, do you see my future self?
00:05:15How much older has this old geezer got?
00:05:18Has he made a breakthrough in muon research?
00:05:22Now, you can continue this with my future self.
00:05:26I believe this is an epic making beginning.
00:05:30Because after I saw you,
00:05:31a strange vision also popped into my head.
00:05:34It was a blazing light.
00:05:36It told me muon technology would
00:05:38one day shake the entire universe.
00:05:45Master, the whole muon research center
00:05:47has clearly been evacuated long ago.
00:05:49Only that stubborn chief scientist stayed.
00:05:52That pile of bones must be Waleen Jome.
00:05:55He's been dead for years.
00:05:57I said it back then.
00:05:59As long as I, Waleen Jome,
00:06:01haven't developed working muon technology,
00:06:03I won't leave.
00:06:04This muon research center for a single damn day.
00:06:08This must be professor who has handmade device.
00:06:12Probably only you can play this recording.
00:06:15My friend from the future.
00:06:17I'm now 76 years and 4 months old.
00:06:21What makes me despair isn't the base is broken.
00:06:24Oxygen generator.
00:06:25But I've achieved nothing in 20 years.
00:06:28I failed.
00:06:29I tried 566 methods.
00:06:31But none could harness the power of the muon.
00:06:34Because every time we get to a critical moment,
00:06:36I've always felt constrained.
00:06:38I realized a terrible truth.
00:06:40Some higher civilization out there has locked down.
00:06:43Muse technology.
00:06:44I shared this idea with the Human Science Alliance.
00:06:47Through comms.
00:06:49Once again, I was met with doubt.
00:06:51It wasn't even doubt.
00:06:53It was outright veiled contempt.
00:06:55I heard them whisper.
00:06:56That delusional lunatic is studying a piece of junk.
00:06:59I was wrong.
00:07:00I wasted my precious energy, even my life,
00:07:03on something doomed to lead nowhere.
00:07:06Maybe the truth is...
00:07:07The muse particle has no potential at all.
00:07:11Friend from the future.
00:07:12Can you do me one last favor?
00:07:14If you ever get the chance,
00:07:16give this little music box to my descendants,
00:07:19if they're still alive.
00:07:21There's nothing special about this music box.
00:07:23It's just a few stable muon particles inside.
00:07:26They're meaningless, just glow faintly.
00:07:28Like tiny fireflies.
00:07:32This is...
00:07:34The legendary muon.
00:07:36You're probably the only one that can play this recording.
00:07:3920 years and I've got nothing.
00:07:42I've tried 566 approaches.
00:07:45But none can tap into the muon's power.
00:07:47Similar tech constructs detected.
00:07:50A basic strong magnetic cage.
00:07:51A stable muon cluster is trapped inside.
00:07:54Muon technology falls under microparticle energy.
00:07:57It's level 4 civilization tech.
00:07:58Some civilizations above level 4
00:08:00have imposed a tech blockade on it.
00:08:03Fool.
00:08:04The tech blockade does exist.
00:08:06Professor Hu's deduction was right.
00:08:08I heard them whispering.
00:08:09That delusional lunatic is studying a piece of junk.
00:08:12I was wrong.
00:08:13He's not junk.
00:08:15Initiate synthesis.
00:08:16Break down into raw units.
00:08:19Break the tech blockade.
00:08:21Synthesis complete.
00:08:22Muon-catalyzed fusion reactor prototypes X2.
00:08:28Deuterium and tritium.
00:08:29Sealed in tubes.
00:08:30Muons captured by tritium.
00:08:32200 times an electron's mass.
00:08:34Tighter orbit.
00:08:35Greatly boosts fusion probability at room temperature.
00:08:37Fusion occurs.
00:08:38Muon is released.
00:08:39Cycle repeats.
00:08:40This is the muon-catalyzed chain.
00:08:41Collins spiral.
00:08:42Controlling violent energy.
00:08:43The downside is about half the muons stick to alpha ions.
00:08:47They can't proceed to the next round.
00:08:48But it can still deliver 500 tons of TNT equivalent.
00:08:51Even in handheld form.
00:08:53Codename gaze of the creator.
00:08:55Controllable muon fusion energy at room temperature.
00:08:58This must be the breakthrough.
00:09:00Professor Hualinjong has been seeking.
00:09:02I wasted my precious energy.
00:09:03Even my life.
00:09:04On something that will never work out.
00:09:08Of course.
00:09:11Maybe the truth is muons are just particles with no potential.
00:09:14How could muons have no potential?
00:09:16Continue synthesizing.
00:09:18Break them down into raw units.
00:09:20Break the tech blockade again.
00:09:21Synthesis successful.
00:09:22Muon fusion catalytic reactor.
00:09:24First generation prototype.
00:09:25Tech fully enhanced via inverse Collins spiral.
00:09:28Eliminating alpha adhesion probability.
00:09:30More stable overall indicators like energy efficiency and reaction time improved 185.
00:09:34A more refined handheld form.
00:09:37No energy fluctuations when inactive.
00:09:40Civilizations below type 3 can't detect its true tech level.
00:09:43Can unleash terrifying energy of 1010 tons TNT equivalent.
00:09:46In an instant.
00:09:49The device is codenamed.
00:09:51Wrath of the creator.
00:09:52Note.
00:09:52This device is an extremely primitive product.
00:09:55In the muze tech series.
00:09:56Its utilization rate of muze energy is less than 0.01.
00:10:00Life is but a dream.
00:10:01And in the end.
00:10:02It may all be for nothing.
00:10:04Nothing brought.
00:10:05Nothing taken.
00:10:07But the one thing I never regret.
00:10:09Is never giving up.
00:10:10Even though my persistence is now a joke.
00:10:13And muze tech is now a joke too.
00:10:16Heh.
00:10:17Who can really say goodbye my friend.
00:10:20My muze technology.
00:10:22Goodbye.
00:10:23This world.
00:10:24Professor Hua.
00:10:25Your persistence isn't a joke.
00:10:27And muze tech is even less of a joke.
00:10:30One day.
00:10:31I'll make your dream scene a reality.
00:10:33Human civilization will wield muon technology.
00:10:35Like a dazzling star.
00:10:37Shaking the entire universe.
00:10:38This guy talks tough.
00:10:40And blurts out all kinds of crude stuff.
00:10:42But deep down.
00:10:43He's a scientist with a noble cause.
00:10:45Of course.
00:10:46His conviction was right.
00:10:48It's just the world was foolish.
00:10:50If I ever get the chance.
00:10:52I'll fulfill your dying wish.
00:11:15I'll be right back.
00:11:16Let's go.
00:11:46Let's go.
00:12:16Let's go.
00:12:24Crows flying the plane, super steady.
00:12:27My little bro here is really awesome.
00:12:30Free flight today.
00:12:52You can rest in peace now, Professor Hua Linjong.
00:12:57This guy went deep into the heart of Kyoto.
00:12:59He stayed there for a full 40 minutes.
00:13:02He reeks of carrion rat blood.
00:13:05He faced the carrion rats and made it back in one piece.
00:13:09Badass.
00:13:10Little bro, if you ever need anything from me,
00:13:14just say the word.
00:13:15I'm rock solid.
00:13:277-13-5.
00:13:29Dummy, this grudge is already a day old, right?
00:13:48The complete JI-34 nanochip.
00:13:51Ah!
00:13:55You dare pull trick right in front of Lord Pig?
00:14:02Lord Pig, our hall is excellent.
00:14:05Looks like today's your lucky day.
00:14:10That idiot, not even a missile could kill him.
00:14:13He's also found a new robot.
00:14:15Don't do anything stupid.
00:14:16This punk must be the one who took out the hyenas on Bar Street.
00:14:20Lord Pig, this punk's got no cybernetic implants at all.
00:14:24How can he have that kind of fighting power?
00:14:26Must be that new nanny robot.
00:14:29Kid, you've got skills.
00:14:31Join me.
00:14:32I need more hands right now.
00:14:35You little trash worm.
00:14:36Did you hear that?
00:14:37Lord Pig is giving you a chance.
00:14:40Just a month ago, Lord Pig collected
00:14:42all parts of the B-33 battle spider
00:14:44and grafted the whole thing onto himself.
00:14:47Now Lord Pig isn't just my boss.
00:14:49He's Sector B-24's top fighter.
00:14:51Even the Scavenger Alliance can't touch him.
00:14:52If you join us, you can walk all over B-24.
00:14:55Some busted-up spider is your top fighter.
00:14:58Forget past grudges.
00:15:00Sorry.
00:15:00I, Chung-Chi, am notoriously narrow-minded.
00:15:03So Oro, that's why you've suddenly been so reckless.
00:15:05So you got yourself a backer.
00:15:08It's a huge pig.
00:15:09It almost looks like a human.
00:15:11Kid, you have no idea what true combat power is,
00:15:14nor do you know the value of my spider legs.
00:15:17Define me.
00:15:18You won't survive.
00:15:20Since you're quite capable,
00:15:21I'll give you one last chance.
00:15:23From now on, all valuable scrap you find goes to me.
00:15:26I'll give you a ten cut.
00:15:28Think carefully before you answer.
00:15:30If I'm not happy,
00:15:31you'll have no more chance to scavenge.
00:15:38Where'd you get the mechanical dog?
00:15:40Brat, you grab what you want.
00:15:42That's how you survive on this trash planet.
00:15:44Join me.
00:15:46And you can steal whatever you want.
00:15:51Too bad about that woman.
00:15:53I used to frequent her.
00:15:54Probably won't get the chance anymore.
00:15:56But lucky for me, there's still that little girl.
00:15:58Just wait a few more years.
00:16:07They killed Mom.
00:16:11Lord Pig, I've never liked this brat.
00:16:14Why recruit him?
00:16:15Just finish him off.
00:16:17Die.
00:16:21I've never liked this brat.
00:16:44What the hell was that?
00:16:45Some kind of weapon?
00:16:46That lousy ghost actually wields a weapon like that?
00:16:49Ah, he missed.
00:16:51I survived.
00:16:52Lord Pig, where your body?
00:16:55What my body?
00:16:57Ugh.
00:17:04Brother, you missed that strike.
00:17:06It was fate.
00:17:08Heaven didn't want me to die.
00:17:10Everything I did before,
00:17:11that dead pig forced me to do it.
00:17:13So from now on,
00:17:15you're my boss.
00:17:16Dammit, why was I so blind?
00:17:25Don't be scared.
00:17:26Come with Big Brother.
00:17:27M.M.
00:17:36What for?
00:17:38We don't have a boss anymore.
00:17:40I'll give you one chance.
00:17:42Work for me.
00:17:43Brother Chi,
00:17:44you're our boss from now on.
00:17:46You tell us to go east.
00:17:47Wait,
00:17:48you're not going to trick us.
00:17:49Knock us out with one punch
00:17:51and hang us on the trash heap like L.U.O., right?
00:17:54L.U.O. was evil by nature.
00:17:55As for you all,
00:17:56I believe you were coerced by Lord Pig.
00:17:59Am I right?
00:18:00From now on,
00:18:01I'll pay you thirty of the original value
00:18:03for all the trash you collect.
00:18:06Thirty?
00:18:07You mean it.
00:18:08Wait,
00:18:08Brother Chi said purchase?
00:18:10That's right,
00:18:11a purchase.
00:18:12I'm starting a brand new business.
00:18:14I'll buy trash from all scavengers.
00:18:16The rule is simple.
00:18:17For tech items of the same model,
00:18:20the more you bring,
00:18:21the higher the price per piece.
00:18:23Same tech items.
00:18:25Even if they're damaged?
00:18:27Yes.
00:18:28We'll be living the high life from now on.
00:18:30Brother Chi,
00:18:31I'm Monkey.
00:18:32Um,
00:18:32so,
00:18:32if you trust us,
00:18:34can you give us some seed money first?
00:18:36Don't worry,
00:18:36we're dead set on following you.
00:18:38Seed money?
00:18:39I don't have any at all.
00:18:40You cover it first.
00:18:41Huh?
00:18:42Each boss these days
00:18:43is more black-hearted than the last.
00:18:45Out of a tiger's den,
00:18:46into the wolf.
00:18:49Master,
00:18:49you too.
00:18:50Don't get your hopes up.
00:18:51Too high, huh?
00:18:53We got no funds.
00:18:54Those monkeys probably don't have any motivation,
00:18:56right?
00:18:57I know.
00:18:58We made a deal with MO before,
00:19:00but we spent it all on the gene catalyst serum.
00:19:03We got no cash.
00:19:04I do have high-entropy alloy here.
00:19:07But we need to finish our first deal with MO the trader.
00:19:11Build basic trust,
00:19:11then the high-entropy alloy
00:19:13can finally see the light of day.
00:19:16MO's been gone 24 hours.
00:19:18We should have results soon.
00:19:19Hope nothing goes wrong.
00:19:28It's the scavengers' alliance.
00:19:31I can eavesdrop on them.
00:19:33Huh?
00:19:36Trench length,
00:19:376.3 kilometers,
00:19:38width increased by 34 meters,
00:19:40lots of matter vaporized,
00:19:41metals,
00:19:42rocks,
00:19:43everything melted,
00:19:44forming smooth sidewalls.
00:19:45Instant temperature,
00:19:47at least 100 to 250 million degrees Celsius.
00:19:49No extraterrestrial missiles
00:19:50or any weapons detected.
00:19:52Someone's on this trash planet.
00:19:54More precisely,
00:19:55right under our feet,
00:19:56on this dump,
00:19:57they set off some kind of
00:19:58fission-type nuclear weapon.
00:20:00This can't be scavengers.
00:20:02No way scavengers could get a weapon like this.
00:20:05A superior gene bearer descended,
00:20:06carrying an extraterrestrial weapon.
00:20:09A superior gene is visiting.
00:20:12Why wasn't I notified?
00:20:19Chung Chi,
00:20:19this is your home.
00:20:22Have you ever seen one
00:20:24with superior genes?
00:20:25Grace us with their presence?
00:20:27There are no people
00:20:28with superior genes here.
00:20:29If you see him,
00:20:31can you let me know right away?
00:20:33I've got many topics
00:20:34I'd like to discuss
00:20:36with a superior gene.
00:20:37For example,
00:20:38how can we solve
00:20:40the scavengers' food shortage?
00:20:55When you have news,
00:20:57let me know.
00:21:08I'm off.
00:21:09No valuable clues left.
00:21:16Prepare for delivery.
00:21:19M.O. keeps his word.
00:21:26Not an aircraft.
00:21:33Black Market Gene Catalytic Serum.
00:21:35Defective product.
00:21:36Your price only covers
00:21:3716.6 vials.
00:21:38Since it's our first deal,
00:21:40I've rounded it up to 17 for you.
00:21:43Chung Chi,
00:21:44we're square.
00:21:45Similar technological artifact detected.
00:21:47Gene Serum.
00:21:48Full of impurities.
00:21:49It's derived from
00:21:50outdated CRISPR-Cas9 technology.
00:21:52RNA guides Cas9 protein.
00:21:54Cut specific DNA sequences.
00:21:56Basically,
00:21:57a DNA-destroying drug.
00:21:59Lethal side effects.
00:22:01Gene optimization success rate.
00:22:03Less than 0.0035.
00:22:05Proceed with synthesis.
00:22:06M.O.
00:22:07That is beyond ridiculous.
00:22:09You,
00:22:09one who's about to die
00:22:10from taking bad serum.
00:22:12I really don't know.
00:22:13What are you so excited about?
00:22:14M.O.
00:22:15Have you ever heard of
00:22:16high-entropy alloy?
00:22:18Of course I have.
00:22:20It's an extremely precious alloy
00:22:21with disordered
00:22:22atomic arrangement,
00:22:24often used in
00:22:25top-tier computing systems.
00:22:26I'm a little surprised.
00:22:28You even know the term
00:22:29high-entropy alloy.
00:22:31Are you looking to buy
00:22:32high-entropy alloy?
00:22:33I'm not bragging,
00:22:35but in the entire solar system.
00:22:36No more than 10 people,
00:22:38including me,
00:22:39can get high-entropy alloy.
00:22:41And once you find
00:22:42the right sales channel,
00:22:44the pricing power
00:22:44of high-entropy alloy
00:22:45is entirely in the seller's hands.
00:22:48With all due respect,
00:22:49you simply can't afford
00:22:51its high price right now.
00:22:53Our deal is done.
00:22:55I'm a businessman.
00:22:56Time is money.
00:22:57Right now,
00:22:58my time is worth
00:22:59about 2,000 credit points
00:23:00per second.
00:23:02I need to end the call.
00:23:04I have four.
00:23:06For what?
00:23:07I weighed them earlier.
00:23:09About 410 grams.
00:23:11For what?
00:23:12I'm going to sell them to you.
00:23:14For what?
00:23:16High-entropy alloy.
00:23:19M.O.,
00:23:20isn't your time worth
00:23:212,000 credit points per second?
00:23:23Why so quiet now?
00:23:24Ching-Chi,
00:23:25before I fucking get there,
00:23:26don't fucking drink
00:23:27that gene serum.
00:23:28Or the deal's fucking off.
00:23:31Heh,
00:23:32he's getting rattled.
00:23:33Fine.
00:23:34Give me your ID.
00:23:35I'll pay you the deposit first.
00:23:38Ching-Chi.
00:23:39Actually,
00:23:39life is beautiful.
00:23:40Gene evolution
00:23:41isn't the only path.
00:23:42With your ability and luck,
00:23:44I think we can work together
00:23:46long-term.
00:23:47Look around at those stinking,
00:23:48hopeless trash heaps.
00:23:51Don't you think
00:23:52they're beautiful?
00:23:5310 million.
00:23:54And that's just the deposit.
00:23:56Yeah.
00:24:11High-purity,
00:24:12high-entropy alloy,
00:24:1341.23 grams.
00:24:14Worth 34,553,200 credits.
00:24:1934,550,000 credits.
00:24:21Let me think,
00:24:22what do I want?
00:24:23B-343 nanny robot.
00:24:25It's Hansi's prototype.
00:24:27Medical mechanical assist gloves.
00:24:29Mechanical adventure boots.
00:24:31Extreme warrior exoskeleton.
00:24:33And related equipment
00:24:33from Meowzy Tech.
00:24:35Do you know why
00:24:36I didn't meet you in person?
00:24:37Because just yesterday,
00:24:39junk Earth was sealed off.
00:24:41For some unknown reason.
00:24:43Human higher-ups
00:24:44don't want any more
00:24:44new tech junk.
00:24:45Entering Earth for now
00:24:47and they've
00:24:47deployed tons of
00:24:49detection devices
00:24:49outside Earth.
00:24:52Those black shipping containers
00:24:54and black
00:24:55chancheng vessels you see.
00:24:57They're all made
00:24:58of special biological material.
00:24:59They can barely slip
00:25:01past the detection signals.
00:25:02The gene catalyst serum
00:25:04sent to you.
00:25:04It works the same way.
00:25:06At least it doesn't emit
00:25:07electronic signals.
00:25:09Don't think this is easy.
00:25:10I can get those
00:25:12biotech boxes
00:25:13into Earth.
00:25:13That's already
00:25:14a heaven-defying feat.
00:25:15If they get any bigger
00:25:17or the frequency
00:25:18gets too dense,
00:25:19they might get seized.
00:25:21I can barely
00:25:22keep myself afloat.
00:25:23Last time we met,
00:25:24it was a normal transaction.
00:25:26Now it's smuggling.
00:25:29Why would human
00:25:30higher-ups seal off
00:25:31a junk-filled Earth?
00:25:33Besides,
00:25:34what you want
00:25:35is extremely outdated.
00:25:37The world
00:25:38phased it out long ago.
00:25:40Like the B-343
00:25:41nanny bot.
00:25:42Probably only
00:25:43in Earth's trash heaps
00:25:44can you find
00:25:45their remains.
00:25:46As for that
00:25:47muse tech you mentioned,
00:25:48I've never
00:25:49heard of it.
00:25:50The 10 million credits
00:25:51you transferred,
00:25:52I'll keep it.
00:25:54Remaining value
00:25:55of the high-entropy alloy.
00:25:56Trade all for
00:25:57gene catalyst serum.
00:25:58You make sure
00:25:59it's transported safely.
00:26:00My principle
00:26:01hasn't changed.
00:26:03I don't care about
00:26:03quality,
00:26:04just quantity.
00:26:05The crummier,
00:26:06the better.
00:26:07The worse,
00:26:07the better.
00:26:08The cheaper,
00:26:08the better.
00:26:12Ching-Chi,
00:26:13what are you drinking?
00:26:14I'm thirsty,
00:26:15just drinking water.
00:26:16You don't think
00:26:17I'm drinking
00:26:17gene catalyst serum,
00:26:19do you?
00:26:22Chung-Chi,
00:26:22take your serum
00:26:23and put
00:26:24the high-entropy
00:26:25alloy into the
00:26:25transport crate.
00:26:26They'll return
00:26:27on their own.
00:26:29Pleasure doing
00:26:29business with you.
00:26:31Hope you're still
00:26:32alive next time
00:26:33we talk.
00:26:40similar tech artifact
00:26:41detected in
00:26:42ultra-compact
00:26:42transport crate
00:26:43made of high-molecular
00:26:44biopolymer.
00:26:46It has a built-in
00:26:47biofuel engine.
00:26:48Due to its material
00:26:49properties and
00:26:50thermal principles,
00:26:51it blocks most
00:26:52detector signals.
00:26:55It's only reasonable
00:26:57that packaging
00:26:57comes with a purchase,
00:26:59right?
00:26:59My grandpa once said,
00:27:01back in the old days,
00:27:02buy a watermelon,
00:27:03get a free spoon,
00:27:04buy instant noodles,
00:27:05get a free fork,
00:27:06buy a Porsche,
00:27:07get the saleswoman
00:27:07thrown in.
00:27:08I bought tens of
00:27:09millions of credits
00:27:10worth of pharmaceuticals.
00:27:11A free small scale
00:27:13isn't too much
00:27:13to ask, right?
00:27:15Something this small.
00:27:16I don't need to
00:27:17check with M.O.,
00:27:18right?
00:27:27Where are you
00:27:28running off to,
00:27:29little cutie?
00:27:34It's no use
00:27:36struggling,
00:27:36little cutie.
00:27:37Scream all you want.
00:27:39No one's coming.
00:27:41No one's coming.
00:27:53Ah.
00:28:00Hello, Brother Chi.
00:28:01I'm Monkey.
00:28:03I'm Bear,
00:28:04Brother Chi.
00:28:06Identical tech
00:28:06artifact detected.
00:28:08Merge?
00:28:09Identical tech
00:28:10artifact detected.
00:28:11Brother Chi,
00:28:11short on time
00:28:12and limited resources.
00:28:13This is all
00:28:14we got today.
00:28:16You too.
00:28:17Brother Chi,
00:28:17in this world,
00:28:18no one knows
00:28:19which comes first,
00:28:20tomorrow
00:28:20or the unexpected.
00:28:22We're the lowest
00:28:22of the low.
00:28:23Finding a boss
00:28:25who'll shelter us,
00:28:26someone we can count on,
00:28:26that's almost impossible.
00:28:28We're all
00:28:28just bottom-tier scavengers,
00:28:30but sometimes character
00:28:31has nothing to do
00:28:32with status.
00:28:33For us, brothers,
00:28:34our word is our bond.
00:28:36Now that we've accepted you
00:28:37as our big brother,
00:28:38we won't break
00:28:39our word easily.
00:28:40Of course,
00:28:41we all agree.
00:28:42You're kind,
00:28:43Brother Chi.
00:28:46Got it.
00:28:47Brother Chi,
00:28:48you had us find
00:28:49same model junk.
00:28:50I bet you're
00:28:51a top repair expert.
00:28:52You want to collect parts
00:28:54to make a working machine.
00:28:56And sell it.
00:29:00Yes,
00:29:01it's a combination.
00:29:02But not the kind
00:29:04you're thinking of.
00:29:05Brother Chi,
00:29:06whenever you're free,
00:29:07fix my little buddy here.
00:29:09Lately,
00:29:10it can't get up.
00:29:11This old guy
00:29:12is over 110 years old.
00:29:14Kuma,
00:29:15get lost.
00:29:15Who the hell
00:29:16names their robotic arm
00:29:17number two?
00:29:19Brother Chi,
00:29:20all this we got today
00:29:21costs 350 credits.
00:29:23That's all we've got.
00:29:25We'll find a way
00:29:25to borrow some tomorrow.
00:29:27Don't stress,
00:29:28Brother Chi.
00:29:28Once our business
00:29:29takes off
00:29:30and we make it big,
00:29:31you can pay it back later.
00:29:33Yeah,
00:29:33Brother Chi,
00:29:33we're not in a rush.
00:29:35What's your account ID?
00:29:37Brother Chi,
00:29:38we're really not in a rush.
00:29:39You just got started.
00:29:41You probably don't have
00:29:41much saved up.
00:29:43We...
00:29:45Two million credits received.
00:29:47How much?
00:29:48This ID format
00:29:50is a major upgrade
00:29:51over old QR codes,
00:29:52higher storage capacity,
00:29:54and higher security.
00:29:55Beggar bro,
00:29:56you're a deep one.
00:29:58Trust is the foundation
00:30:00of our cooperation.
00:30:01Our principles won't change.
00:30:02Same model tech junk.
00:30:03We'll take it all.
00:30:04What about your cut?
00:30:05Still 30 as we agreed.
00:30:07Monkey.
00:30:08From now on,
00:30:09you're in charge
00:30:10of this acquisition squad.
00:30:11You'll handle all payouts.
00:30:13Daily settlements.
00:30:14No overnight delays.
00:30:15Wow.
00:30:16Things are looking up for us.
00:30:17Beggar bro,
00:30:18you rock.
00:30:18Beggar bro,
00:30:19the junk we collect.
00:30:20Most of it is unwanted,
00:30:21but many scavengers
00:30:23heard we're looking
00:30:24for the stuff,
00:30:24so they started ripping us off.
00:30:26I can never get
00:30:27the price right.
00:30:29That's so thoughtful of Chi.
00:30:31Got us this little scale.
00:30:35Biomaterial crate
00:30:36with built-in bioengine.
00:30:3795 like new,
00:30:38approximate 6.5 kilograms
00:30:39grade B biomaterial.
00:30:40Value 53,200 credits.
00:30:42Just scan it,
00:30:43and it instantly identifies
00:30:44the item's material and price.
00:30:45This device is amazing.
00:30:47This crate is worth so much.
00:30:49Beggar bro really is something else.
00:30:50Even a random shoe boss
00:30:51is worth over 50K.
00:30:53Beggar bro,
00:30:53can I borrow it?
00:30:54I want to see how much
00:30:55my junk is worth.
00:30:56155 mechanical lifting arm.
00:30:58Lithium iron phosphate battery.
00:31:0030 new,
00:31:00approximate 43 kilograms
00:31:01of scrap iron.
00:31:02Value 12 credits.
00:31:03What?
00:31:04My junk is only worth 12 credits?
00:31:07Don't worry,
00:31:08beggar bro.
00:31:08Starting tomorrow,
00:31:09we bros will bust our asses.
00:31:10Scavenging for you.
00:31:11No,
00:31:12wait,
00:31:12starting the day after tomorrow.
00:31:13The gray storm hits tonight,
00:31:15and last day,
00:31:16and two nights.
00:31:17We all need to find safe shelter.
00:31:19We've got a spot,
00:31:19totally secure.
00:31:20You coming with us?
00:31:21Monkey,
00:31:22take the brothers and hide well.
00:31:24I've...
00:31:28Scavenger Alliance alert.
00:31:29Ash Storm will sweep
00:31:31sectors B12,
00:31:32B69 in four hours.
00:31:34All scavengers
00:31:35seek shelter immediately.
00:31:54Four hours.
00:31:56I need to build my own shelter.
00:31:58I have to do this eventually.
00:32:01This shabby shack isn't safe at all.
00:32:03My synthesis business has just begun.
00:32:05I need a secure and hidden base.
00:32:08Only this way can I synthesize freely.
00:32:10To my heart's content.
00:32:14To avoid ash storms,
00:32:16radiation,
00:32:17and toxic gas.
00:32:18Underground is best.
00:32:21Deep beneath the solid earth.
00:32:26Small geological probe.
00:32:28Titanium drill bit.
00:32:30240 horsepower.
00:32:31Multiple sensors.
00:32:32Drills 30 to 50 meters underground.
00:32:3545 minute run time damaged.
00:32:37The ability to drill underground.
00:32:39Expand underground space.
00:32:41Just what I wanted.
00:32:45Begin synthesis.
00:32:47Break down into raw materials.
00:32:55Updating target model.

00:33:25Break down into base materials.
00:33:31Updating target model.
00:33:35Synthesis complete.
00:33:37Codename Earth Dragon underground expansion dock.
00:33:39This device isn't just a mining tool.
00:33:41But an expandable vehicle.
00:33:43Besides its excellent drilling capability.
00:33:45It can expand into a 120 SQM underground construction.
00:33:48Command center with strong pressure.
00:33:51And heat resistance.
00:33:53In the interstellar prospecting squad.
00:33:55It's called the Earth Dragon King.
00:33:57Only prospecting squads with million ton annual output.
00:34:00Qualify for this level of gear.
00:34:02Haha.
00:34:03Right on time.
00:34:04Okay.
00:34:09You have to make sure the fires are not right.
00:34:18Okay.
00:34:22Okay.
00:34:28Okay.
00:34:29Let's take a look.
00:34:32Come on.
00:34:32No panic.
00:34:33I will never do this anymore.
00:34:342 years.
00:34:36Alright.
00:34:37What do you think about that?
00:34:39We'll soon have one. The best shelter on Earth.
00:34:55Estimated drilling time 40 minutes.
00:34:58The ash storm will arrive in 3 hours 50 minutes.
00:35:01We have plenty of time.
00:35:04Electromagnetic system auxiliary module.
00:35:07It assists various precision electronic devices.
00:35:10Kind of like an expansion unit.
00:35:12When connected to other electronic devices,
00:35:14it can boost their processing speed.
00:35:17Unfortunately, compatibility is extremely limited.
00:35:20Plus it requires a physical hardwired connection,
00:35:23making it unusable for 99 of devices on the market.
00:35:26There are four of them.
00:35:30Initiating synthesis.
00:35:31Breaking down into raw materials.
00:35:33What can we synthesize from this white elephant?
00:35:37Two melts electronic assistance.
00:35:39Didn't melts pass away a long time ago?
00:35:43Who would have thought?
00:35:44He'd even improved this white elephant before he died.
00:35:47This design still aims to optimize electronic.
00:35:49Controls and switch to a wireless magnetic.
00:35:51Interface.
00:35:53Ditching outdated physical connections.
00:35:55But the drawback was still glaring.
00:35:57The compatibility rate was painfully low.
00:35:59Proceed with synthesis.
00:36:02The Moran-Molls version superconducting e-assistant.
00:36:05Who is Moran-Molls?
00:36:08Is he a descendant of Dr. Molls?
00:36:10He's Molls from the Mollin system.
00:36:13The universe is vast, millions of light years away.
00:36:16There's also a twin solar system, a twin Earth, and a twin Molls.
00:36:19The same geography.
00:36:21The same causal chain.
00:36:23You can think of this as a parallel universe in the same dimension.
00:36:26Ha!
00:36:27So that's the setup.
00:36:28So you're saying the tech Molls couldn't pull off.
00:36:32Was achieved by his parallel self.
00:36:34On that distant twin Earth.
00:36:35E-assistant technology made a breakthrough.
00:36:38With superconducting metal and quaternary algorithm.
00:36:41The device was no longer a useless gimmick.
00:36:44It could shift its form and behavior.
00:36:47Attach to other electronic devices.
00:36:50And communicate seamlessly via superconducting metal.
00:36:53Quaternary algorithm can also fully integrate into the target system.
00:36:57This technology comes from a level 1.9 technological civilization.
00:37:00Holy shit.
00:37:02Is this STC really that powerful?
00:37:04This tech can't exist in our universe.
00:37:07Parallel universes fill the gap.
00:37:13This is a precursor to the gray storm.
00:37:16What the hell?
00:37:18How come the drilling time is 7 hours now?
00:37:20We hit a massive metal waste deposit.
00:37:23At 36 meters.
00:37:25Years of compression made the metal extremely dense.
00:37:27Initial scans show the waste is.
00:37:29A whopping 170 meters thick.
00:37:32Drilling time has shot up.
00:37:337 hours?
00:37:34We're screwed, aren't we?
00:37:4670.
00:37:48Muon fission reactor.
00:37:5070 energy remaining.
00:37:52Optimizing performance.
00:37:53We can create a brand new usage plan.
00:37:55Original plan instantly.
00:37:56Release muon fission energy.
00:37:58Causes about a 7 kilometer straight line burn.
00:38:01Massive destruction.
00:38:02Optimize plan control muon energy release.
00:38:05To project a thin energy beam.
00:38:07Concentrate all energy at the beam tip.
00:38:09And when the beam penetrates to a specific location.
00:38:11Trigger ultra-high heat to create a spherical burn.
00:38:145,000 meters in diameter.
00:38:18This.
00:38:20If it works the way I expected.
00:38:23Then this optimized muon catalyst will be perfect.
00:38:25For digging the bunker.
00:38:27Earth Dragon King.
00:38:27Return to base.
00:38:29The gray storm is imminent.
00:38:30We've got to try.
00:38:34Okay.
00:38:55doesn't seem to do anything.
00:39:13It's been 20 minutes. Should be good. I'll take some extra coolant and go check.
00:39:21For crying out loud. Oh my God, Cheng Chi, just be patient. Wait a bit and you'll see the surprise.
00:39:42The heat inside Cheng Chi is mostly gone. Time to open the blind box.
00:39:59Silly, you're leaking oil again.
00:40:10This tunnel.
00:40:16It's a sort of technological amber.
00:40:19NVIDIA graphics card. Mate 70 phone. Interstellar positioning compass.
00:40:24And what's this?
00:40:34It's so beautiful.
00:40:38It feels like I'm in my own little universe.
00:40:43Why is oxygen so abundant here?
00:40:46And the temperature's just right?
00:40:56It really is the perfect weapon for underground survival.
00:41:16Yahoo. Ha ha ha.
00:41:20M-M.
00:41:22Ah.
00:41:24Your dad is buried at the bottom of a garbage heap. I was a little worried at first.
00:41:29You'd reject this underground shelter. You adults worry too much.
00:41:33If you're clear-headed, you'd know these are two different things.
00:41:37Wow. So many stars up there.
00:41:44the gray storm hits in less than two hours next we start moving out m.m. this is a delicate
00:41:51operation chun chi can you give me a piggyback up i need to check this over for you and spot
00:41:57any gaps

00:45:24Everything seems completely normal.
00:45:27After this cup of tea, I'll start my comeback and escape the cruel gene ranking.
00:45:32System for good.
00:45:37Silly. This water's spoiled.
00:45:40We need to overhaul the filtration system right now.
00:45:43What's up?
00:45:44Oh, Xiaoqiong was bursting to pee earlier.
00:45:47She said she didn't want to dirty the floor, so she peed in your teapot.
00:45:51Isn't there a toilet in the room?
00:45:55Oh, Xiaoqiong said she can't get used to the toilet yet.
00:45:58My calm grandpa once said, people back then loved drinking horse piss.
00:46:02Where was I?
00:46:04Oh, right. I want to break free from the contempt chain of the genetically enhanced.
00:46:08The gene optimization success rate is less than 0.0035.
00:46:12M.O. says after drinking this.
00:46:13Survival rate is below 0.0035.
00:46:16The numbers match. Fail and you die.
00:46:19Hard to believe. This thing actually costs 300,000 credits.
00:46:23Begin synthesis.
00:46:25Deconstruct into base materials.
00:46:278 vials of quality-grade black market gene serum.
00:46:29A CRISPR-Cas9 technology upgrade plan.
00:46:32Drastically reduces destructiveness.
00:46:34It optimizes and repairs human genes.
00:46:37Gene optimization success rate 11.23.
00:46:40As expected.
00:46:42The success rate of gene optimization has increased by over 3,000 times.
00:46:46Of course, we only get this multiplier because the original base is too small.
00:46:50Even now, the success rate is merely 11.
00:46:54Continue synthesis.
00:46:57Deconstruct to base materials.
00:46:59Synthesis successful.
00:47:014 vials of premium-grade black market gene serum obtained.
00:47:11Don't worry.
00:47:12This bunker's protected us from over a dozen gray storms.
00:47:16It looks ready to collapse.
00:47:19But it always pulls through.
00:47:22Right now, we have a more pressing matter.
00:47:29Top-grade black market gene serum.
00:47:32Our alliance spent 10 years' savings.
00:47:36And exhausted all channels just for this one dose.
00:47:41My daughter Hina, what are you wearing?
00:47:45These clothes can't resist radiation.
00:47:47Or filter toxic gas.
00:47:49Cough.
00:47:50I'm old.
00:47:51Someone has to take over as chief of the scavenger alliance.
00:47:55My eldest daughter.
00:47:57Cough, cough on you.
00:48:01Cough.
00:48:21I've been notified that a galactic alliance tactical squad will arrive on Earth within 48 hours.
00:48:27They're on a covert mission.
00:48:30In their eyes, no amount of E-tiers can match a single D-tier status.
00:48:36Earth's been abandoned for so long.
00:48:38Environment is worsening.
00:48:40And resources are growing scarcer.
00:48:42This is a rare opportunity.
00:48:44Maybe through this squad,
00:48:47We can send a message to the Solar System Alliance and request aid.
00:48:51To pull this off,
00:48:53We need at least one representative who can command their full attention.
00:48:57Father, I'm E-tier 2.
00:48:59I know full well.
00:49:01Even with your genetic upgrade,
00:49:02You still lack enough negotiation skills.
00:49:06On Yoon,
00:49:07This elite serum has an impressive 23 success rate.
00:49:10That's an amazing rate.
00:49:12Even if it fails,
00:49:13The side effects won't be fatal.
00:49:15Don't worry.
00:49:16I have a medical team ready.
00:49:18You'll receive immediate treatment,
00:49:20Even if it fails.
00:49:22Get ready.
00:49:23In one hour,
00:49:24You'll begin your second genetic evolution.
00:49:27The future of the Scavenger Alliance,
00:49:30And the fate of hundreds of thousands of scavengers on this planet.
00:49:33It's all on you.
00:49:45Hina,
00:49:46My father's favor for me,
00:49:48Is a double-edged sword.
00:49:50It's like where we stand now.
00:49:52A safe bunker ahead.
00:49:54But the terrifying gray storm is behind us.
00:49:57I can face those storms, too.
00:49:59I won't let my sister face any risk.
00:50:03The Interstellar Union never treated scavengers as people.
00:50:06In their eyes,
00:50:07We're just cockroaches in a junkyard.
00:50:09Even with E-class genes,
00:50:11We're just bigger rats.
00:50:13No one knows when we face them.
00:50:15What will happen next?
00:50:16I promise you,
00:50:18If the negotiation succeeds,
00:50:19And our resources have other genetic serums,
00:50:22I'll be the first to fight to get you one.
00:50:25Everyone,
00:50:25Including me,
00:50:26Hongyun.
00:50:27We all wait behind Hina.
00:50:31Sis,
00:50:31I always believe in you.
00:50:33You don't have to work so hard.
00:50:35Hina has her own way.
00:50:36I know.
00:50:37I've always known.
00:50:38Hina is such a stubborn child.
00:50:40Miss Hongyun,
00:50:41The serum is ready.
00:50:42We can begin.
00:50:44Heh.
00:50:47Father never said it outright.
00:50:49If the black market serum fails,
00:50:51It'll most likely cause a genetic defect.
00:50:53And you become a defective.
00:50:5523 success rate.
00:50:57That's only a 1 in 5 chance for my sister.
00:51:00Don't worry, Hina.
00:51:02I'll make it.
00:51:04Premium black market gene serum X4.
00:51:07Only 23 success rate.
00:51:09Failure causes disability.
00:51:11Total garbage.
00:51:12Continue synthesis.
00:51:16Breakdown into raw materials.
00:51:18Synthesis complete.
00:51:19Valter Gene Serum X2.
00:51:22We're falling apart.
00:51:23Shouldn't it be something like a super black market gene serum?
00:51:27Valter Gene Serum.
00:51:28Produced by black market pharmacist Valent.
00:51:31He was a legendary genius alchemist.
00:51:33He developed his own gene sequencing technology.
00:51:36Based on CRISPR-Cas9.
00:51:38He fully applied this technology to gene modification serums.
00:51:42Its catalysis success rate is 90.8.
00:51:46With minimal side effects.
00:51:48This result crushes the Galactic Science Association.
00:51:51But these serums have become the only surviving doses.
00:51:54Valent vanished without a trace.
00:51:56After creating 13 exclusive serums.
00:51:59Rumor has it.
00:52:00He's most likely recruited by the Galactic Science Association.
00:52:03Or kidnapped by certain dark forces.
00:52:05A 90.8 success rate.
00:52:09The probability is terrifying.
00:52:12Proceed with synthesis.
00:52:15Breaking down into raw materials.
00:52:19Synthesis successful.
00:52:21Valente's Reverie Potion.
00:52:24Valente's Reverie.
00:52:25This elixir is a concept in the notes of Valente.
00:52:28The genius pharmacist.
00:52:31It was his ultimate vision for his craft.
00:52:34But until Valente disappeared.
00:52:36He never made this vision a reality.
00:52:38The core of this technology replicates.
00:52:41Specific gene fragments it massively amplifies.
00:52:44Target genes via PCR polymerase chain reaction.
00:52:46It can continuously replicate and stack.
00:52:48Advantageous gene fragments.
00:52:50To override inferior genes.
00:52:52SCT truly covers all fields.
00:52:54It even turns ideas from someone's notes into reality.
00:52:58Valente's Reverie Potion.
00:52:59Gene evolution 99.9 success rate.
00:53:02Because this technology replicates and amplifies.
00:53:04Existing superior fragments.
00:53:06Final results of genetic optimization.
00:53:08Vary based on.
00:53:08Individual constitution.
00:53:10There could be a massive leap forward.
00:53:12Or there could be no noticeable change.
00:53:15Put simply.
00:53:17Talent differs.
00:53:18Results differ too.
00:53:19If all your gene fragments are trash.
00:53:22This serum will be just as useless.
00:53:24But if there's even a trace of.
00:53:27Superior genes in my own DNA.
00:53:29This gene serum will copy these superior genes.
00:53:32And replace the inferior ones.
00:53:34It's a process of constantly amplifying your advantages.
00:53:36Enough superior genes could lead to a huge leap.
00:53:40Even an evolutionary breakthrough.
00:53:43Simply put.
00:53:43The final serum.
00:53:44Made from these 16 garbage serums.
00:53:48It's a mystery box.
00:53:50Interesting.
00:53:52How much potential do I really have?
00:53:54Wait and see.
00:54:02No way.
00:54:04I'm a fucking dressed up good for nothing.
00:54:08Whoa.
00:54:09Didn't think Cheng Chi would still be so fiery.
00:54:12His lordship really is a handful.
00:54:27I just passed out.
00:54:30Han Zai must have saved me.
00:54:32Now I'm lying here safe.
00:54:34He's really a trustworthy partner.
00:54:39Cheng Chi.
00:54:40You're totally done for this time.
00:54:42You drank some potion and passed out cold.
00:54:47No one else is like you, huh?
00:54:49They're pretty quick.
00:54:50They're already prepping for cremation.
00:54:55Damn.
00:55:01What just happened?
00:55:03Did I turn into a bolt of lightning?
00:55:07No.
00:55:09It's the emergency evasion response.
00:55:11Of the extreme warrior armor.
00:55:17Han Zai.
00:55:18That traitor.
00:55:20He actually stripped my extreme warrior armor off me.
00:55:23He was afraid it would become my burial goods.
00:55:27Wait.
00:55:28I wasn't wearing the armor.
00:55:30Cheng Chi.
00:55:30I knew you'd survive.
00:55:33Just messing with you.
00:55:34But don't blame us.
00:55:36You little bastard.
00:55:37You were out cold for a full 48 hours.
00:55:40Is that why you cremated me?
00:55:43Wait.
00:55:43I actually slept for 48 hours?
00:55:46So, the gray storm is almost over.
00:55:49What?
00:55:50Your eyes changed.
00:56:03I went from a natural to an E-class genitor?
00:56:07An E-class genitor has overall superior genes.
00:56:11Zero defects.
00:56:12But they aren't world-shattering superhumans.
00:56:15More like the best among humans.
00:56:17So, what's going on with my physical fitness?
00:56:25Two rings of light.
00:56:27I actually skipped to D-class.
00:56:29D-class gene carriers.
00:56:31Show exceptional talent in specific areas.
00:56:33So, I have that speed now?
00:56:36No.
00:56:47I skipped three levels.
00:56:50I'm a class.
00:56:52C.
00:56:53C-class gene.
00:56:54Also known as the elite gene.
00:56:57These people often excel in multiple fields.
00:57:00With effort and opportunity,
00:57:02they could become humans at the pinnacle of power and status.
00:57:08Meanwhile, C-class genes also became a turning point.
00:57:12Because from this level,
00:57:13the carrier's body begins to transform
00:57:15after breaking through DNA limits.
00:57:19For example, enhanced strength, speed and endurance,
00:57:22and agility.
00:57:25No wonder I could pull off those moves.
00:57:28It's all because of C-grade gene traits.
00:57:32So, my future?
00:57:38Cleansing essence and marrow, right?
00:57:40Purging impurities, right?
00:57:42What a cliché plot.
00:57:44Screw you, author.
00:57:51I finally get it.
00:57:53I was such a worthless piece of trash back then.
00:57:56I also finally understand why so many ordinary people,
00:58:00no matter how hard they try,
00:58:02can never escape mediocrity.
00:58:04In the old era,
00:58:06there were innate genetic differences between people.
00:58:09And now,
00:58:10we've even got genetic science.
00:58:14The gap from genetics is an insurmountable chasm.
00:58:20This feels so damn good.
00:58:29Cheng Chi, get ready for delivery.
00:58:31Converted by high entropy alloy rate.
00:58:33I got you 82 vials of failed black market gene serums.
00:58:37Second batch, 82.
00:58:39This isn't just eating explosives for fun.
00:58:41Total blast?
00:58:43Cheng Chi, are you dead?
00:58:45If you don't reply in 10 seconds,
00:58:47I'll take you for dead.
00:58:48I'm making a killing on this deal.
00:58:52Even if I die,
00:58:53I'll come back as a ghost,
00:58:55to take back my serums from you.
00:58:57Good, you're not dead.
00:58:58My 20 biotech crates
00:59:00have already entered Earth's atmosphere.
00:59:02Then I realized Earth seems to have a huge storm.
00:59:05You'd better hurry out to pick up the goods.
00:59:07Four of my transport crates
00:59:08and custom scales seem lost in the storm.
00:59:11A heavy loss.
00:59:12Oh, so this ash storm really is massive.
00:59:15Take my advice.
00:59:16Prepare for the worst.
00:59:18Cheng Chi, you...
00:59:26Cheng Chi, can you put on some clothes?
00:59:29Uh, no.
00:59:30Sorry.
00:59:31It's okay.
00:59:32I've seen lots of mom's clients.
00:59:33I'm used to it.
00:59:35But you grown-ups are such a handful.
00:59:37You even need reminding for small things like getting dressed.
00:59:40Shame on you.
00:59:41TSK, TSK.
00:59:50I'm going out to grab something.
00:59:57Every time the gray storm passes,
01:00:00scrap Earth's landscape changes.
01:00:02For scavengers, it's a whole new opportunity.
01:00:05There.
01:00:06All right.
01:00:06All right.
01:00:08All right.
01:00:09All right.
01:00:10All right.
01:00:10All right.
