In this multiverse, many species are far more fertile than humans.

Even though human beings have a hormonal system of all-weather estrus, when it takes nine to ten months to have a child at a time and most of them have one child at a time, human fertility is very weak in essence. Especially human beings are still flesh and blood creatures, and they can't reproduce continuously in their life. Generally speaking, there are many people who have two or three times, There are even some individuals who have no fertility adaptability to each other.

Of course, this is only relative to some species with high yield... Each species has its own advantages and disadvantages in terms of reproduction. Generally speaking, the longer the natural life is, the less it will be born, and the shorter the natural life is, the more it will be born - so for some intelligent species with a natural life of more than 3000 years, human beings are probably more difficult to produce than the Zerg.

In any case, as the most basic part of a society of intelligent life, reproduction casts the foundation of race, determines the form and social tendency of a civilization, and even determines the direction of its collective will. Changing the reproduction process or essence of a race can undoubtedly change the form of the whole race from the most fundamental point, no matter whether the change is accelerated or slowed down.

Few races, with such courage, have made any significant changes in their own race's reproduction process - not because they are afraid of the unknown, but because they sincerely believe that their own race's reproduction process is a perfect form that has evolved for tens of millions of years and finally arrived without any replacement.

But humans are different.

Mrs. McCullough, made a change.

Star fall, January 1, 858, 7:34 a.m. world standard time, mirov world, far south eternal lake, Lange City Central Hospital.

A young man is anxiously waiting outside the operating room. He is walking back and forth in the corridor, just like an indefatigable walking machine. You can see that there are boxes full of ice cream in the garbage can beside him. You can imagine how much ice cream the nervous gentleman ate in the process of waiting.

As you can see, he likes vanilla.

This man looks only in his early twenties. He is handsome and very young. He has black hair and his eyes are very rare purplish red. From time to time, he looks up at the closed door of the operating room and glances at the elegant elf handwriting on the notice board on the wall.

[no smoking in hospital]

"Who can smoke?"

"I'm not mentally retarded," he said to himself

Obviously, this gentleman - no, now we can say "this father", now the reason for waiting in the hospital is obvious. He is waiting for his wife to give birth to the crystallization of their love. However, this process can only rely on the efforts of the mother alone, and as a father, he can only be like a land bird suffering from anxiety, just like a waste.

I don't know how long it took, the red light in the operating room finally turned green, and an elf doctor who looked very relaxed and not very tired walked out of it.

"Mr. fafnier Chris, the operation was successful, and the wife and the child are healthy."

After stopping farfnille who wanted to enter the operating room, the elf doctor sighed and comforted each other: "Alas, you can't go in now. After all, your wife is a... Well, a goblin. I mean, it might be a little bit ugly, but... You know, it's kind of weird. "

"What's the matter?" "Are you questioning my love for Vera?" Mr. fafnier glared

"... No." The spirit doctor was stopped, and could not give any follow-up warning, so he could only shake his head and say, "OK, but really, I can never understand the eccentric orientation of you human beings..."

This time, he didn't stop.

Although full of momentum, fafnier walked into the operating room cautiously and lightly, fearing to disturb anyone. But soon, a slightly weak and cheerful lady's voice came from the inside.

"Is that you, my dear?"

"It's me, it's me!"

Hearing this sound, farfnille immediately perked up, and then rushed to the small ward. The next moment, he saw that a group of shining, very small human figures were lying on a special white crystal operating table (two palms large), while several elves doctors and nurses were removing the micro surgical tools of relevant characteristics.

"The difficulty of psychic separation operation is not as high as expected. I feel it's quite simple."

"Compared with being born, it's really hard for them to be pregnant at the beginning... I really don't understand. It's just cross species. How can they (human beings) cross type oestrus?""Well, don't you say that the head of Lange tribe married a Hailong lady with thunder Gulong blood? That's cross species, cross body. "

"But the dragon has human metamorphosis, and the patriarch is also a druid. He can metamorphose brutally - it's easy to say."

Naturally, fafnier could hear these undisguised conversations, but he didn't have time to argue with these people about what Plato's spiritual love was, and he didn't bother to explain to them what it was called "relying on blending" -- it was more thorough than simple blood blending, directly fusing from the spiritual aspect, giving birth to the next generation of two people's soul thinking.

It's just that the process is a bit troublesome. If it wasn't for the fact that the mccroff civilization has been exposed to a lot of pure energy and spiritual life in the past ten years, for example, the champion of the gold single group of the first multi star civilization Invitational Competition in that year, "almond civilization" and their assistance in research, otherwise, It's really a big problem to make humans and goblins without this function breed offspring.

"How are you, my dear?"

Because the operation of separation of spirit is very successful, and there is no saying that the goblin is infected, so the doctor did not stop fafnier from approaching. He came to the operating table of the white crystal and watched nervously. Because the spirit separated a part of it, he was a little weak.

"I'm ok. I just want to move normally. I guess I'll have to wait a few days."

As you can see, the wind goblin has long blue hair and pale golden eyes, which makes her beautiful and lovely. A pair of lattice wings, which are a bit like the energy shield of the void warship, proves that she is a goblin close to the new era. She is holding a small light spot, and her face is full of maternal brilliance - but the whole goblin is only one slap.

Several doctors who were ready to leave looked at farfnille with false eyes. They always thought it was a crime, but they couldn't find any evidence.

For goblins, separating a part of the spirit is just like separating a part of the flesh and blood. In fact, fafnier has separated a part of his own spirit for a long time, but that was a few months ago, and now he has recovered.

"In a word, our children are healthy!"

With that, the wind goblin named Vera happily raised the light spot in his hand, and farfnille carefully used his magic power to turn it into an invisible gentle position, instead of his oversized hand, to lift the light spot as big as his fingernail.

"Yes... I feel... Steady energy frequency, good, great!"

"Cough, cough."

Just as the couple were talking sweet words, pouring out their feelings, and even looking forward to their children's future, with a slight cough, the elf doctor came slowly at the beginning. He squinted, looked at a document in his hand, and then looked at it as if it was a routine: "Congratulations, you two. The operation is very successful, Mother... "

At this point, he got stuck. He didn't know whether to say "son" or "woman", but the doctor was an elf after all. He passed this passage with a tone like singing like a Buddha statue: "according to this" new mccrolfe fertility law ", I have to ask your opinions, and you all know the content."

"In a word, do you agree that we will carry out the ceremony of" Shenji accompaniment "for newborns?"

Is that a question?

Fafnier and Vera first looked at each other, then said in unison, "we agree!"

However, Mr. fafnier Chris was still a little nervous. He swallowed his saliva, looked at the light spot in his hand, and said to himself suspiciously, "but can my child really go to the accompanying ceremony now? I mean, it should be OK to grow up a little bit, right

After all, according to the information he got before, the most primitive ritual of Shenji accompaniment needs to take out a part of the body of the newborn to perform the ritual, and then put it back into the body of the newborn to achieve accompaniment. And his own child... After all, is quite special. Maybe when he or she grows up, he or she will have the semi entity of human beings, but now, he or she is a pure spirit.

Is that ok?

"No problem."

Obviously, the doctor had thought about similar problems for a long time. He shrugged his shoulders and said: "the old ceremony three years ago, on the whole, borrowed the traditional ritual of that adult family. Although it can achieve 100% stable resonance rate, many parents of children are too bloody and may hurt their children, so they always refuse. So very soon, two years ago, there was a brand new method of performing the instrument directly across the air instead of taking out a part of the body. "

"And now, our technology has improved."

In this way, a dark blue space-time brilliance appeared in the doctor's hand. Soon, a test tube filled with a tiny galaxy of stars appeared out of thin air, and was held in the doctor's hand: "by learning from the highest creation of" shelter civilization, "the structure of" black fog "was created, In addition to some unique technologies of mikelov, we have developed the "spirit reagent", which is used to carry the ritual accompanied by the magic machine. Not only does it not need to take out a part of the body, but also it does not need to hold a ceremony directly for the newborn. It only needs to inject the core of the spirit into the reagent, so that the newborn can get the accompany of the magic machine. ""I think it's quite reasonable to call this kind of ceremony" artificial Protoss "in the past shelter civilization - but we have more weapons than them, ha ha."

Over the years, many top secret information has gradually become public, and now it has become a joke to reconcile the atmosphere between doctors and patients.

After listening to the doctor's explanation, farfnille and Vera were relieved - it's not that they are old-fashioned, but that their children are really special in shape, and they can't bear too much harm at birth. But soon, the freshmen's doubts reappeared: "but doctor, our children are so small... Isn't this smart reagent too big?"

The doctor sighed. He handed the test tube, which had been turned into a spirit reagent, to fafnier, and then made a move of "putting it in.".

For a moment and a half, fafnier still can't react, but vera on one side understands it. First she suddenly, and then she is shocked: "put... Put it in?"

She looked at the test tube, at this moment, there was a vision of the baby carriage: "bottle... Bottle villain?"

"Otherwise, can't you still inject it? It's not a balloon. "

For their shock, the doctor didn't think much of it: "smart reagent is the best culture medium for smart life during growth, at least much better than you put it outdoors. Moreover, in the process of growing up, he gradually coexists with Shenji. In the future, his resonance rate with Shenji will definitely reach a very high level, and it will not be difficult to even break through the "100% limit of measurement.". Believe me, we've done a lot more testing in this area than you think. "

Let's not talk about the two people holding test tubes and newborn light spots, their faces tangled, and they don't know how to "put them in.". From the perspective of stretching, I left the hospital in the center of the city and came to the whole Lange city.

You can see that on the street, people come and go, and there are all kinds of races and forms of life. There are not only human beings of flesh and blood, but also mechanical individuals of iron and steel. In mid air, there are ghosts and winged intelligent life flying. These forms are different, and some of them even come from different worlds and civilizations. Without exception, all of them turn into human beings, Walking in the human world.

In principle, it should be more difficult to distinguish the purebred lady McCullough among all living beings, but in fact it is not.

You can see that on the street, near or behind every lady McCullough, there is a half spirit floating in different shapes. They are in the shape of human beings, weapons, animals, Warcraft, objects, musical instruments, or other strange shapes. There is no doubt that any existence with such a Paragon is Mrs. McCullough.

Even seven or eight year old children have corresponding spirit bodies floating to protect and guide them to avoid danger. Human children may not know what danger is, but as their companion, their best playmate guides them to fight with weapons.

Whether or not they will not need such guidance in the future, at least now Shenji will open up a safe and smooth path for them before they grow up.

Of course, it's not all Mrs. McCullough who chose to be accompanied by Shenji. At least, there are still some people who have doubts about this sudden appearance of the half body.

"How can you ensure the safety of this companion?"

They always ask like this, with questioning tone and even fierce attack: "you can't make sure, can you? If Shenji would bite back, wouldn't ordinary people like us, who don't have extraordinary power, surely die? "

For a variety of reasons, they always refuse to change, but their doubts can not be regarded as wrong. At least, in the process of developing magic machine, developers have thought about this problem earlier than them.

The answer to this question is "it doesn't matter.".

unsafe? It's not safe. There is no 100% security in this world. If we want absolute security and peace, we can only suggest death... Ah, death is not peace, because the absolute strong, even if the dead are annihilated in the void, can forcibly reverse entropy and time and drag people back.

Even the original human body is not safe - are all kinds of genetic diseases, all kinds of inborn defects, and even the inborn short board bred in the embryo more dangerous than the artificially made magic machine striving for perfection? Don't talk about other things, toothache, stomach disease, digestive problems, cancer... Which one is not painful and which one is not dangerous?

What's more, compared with the magic machine that has never had any problems at all at present, what humans should be most vigilant about is other things, such as car accidents, exploration of different worlds, accidentally bumping into sharp things, learning magic leads to backfire, sharpening fighting spirit, causing life decay... The whole world dies of extraordinary power of cultivation, People who die of their own swords don't know how many, and no one doesn't learn magic and fighting spirit. They don't use weapons and tools.You should know how many people died suddenly in those days.

But Shenji can avoid most of the above dangers.

They are spirits and weapons associated with human beings. When they hold the ceremony of accompanying, they can transform the body of the accompanying and make it reach the natural perfect state. They can avoid sudden attacks, prompt dangerous areas, warn before the spell backfires. When the spell backfires, they can bear it together. The cultivation of fighting spirit can also guide the accompanying, If the companion insists on going his own way, he can at least help the other party to prepare the letter (some will choose to inform the city guard or the parents of the companion).

Maybe in the future, with Shenji, there will be some bad things and bad situations. For example, a group of useless people who depend on Shenji for everything will come out - but even if they don't have Shenji, they will depend on their parents to gnaw. In the final analysis, they are all rubbish, and Shenji will at least prevent them from making mistakes because of rubbish.

It's not impossible to bite back on the accomplices. For example, the accomplices are too wasteful, and the accomplices can't be squeezed. It's really reasonable for the accomplices to resist. But Shenji comes from the soul and body of the companion. If you have to say it, it's really antiphagia. In a sense, it's just schizophrenia. And this situation hasn't happened yet, so it can't be taken as a counterexample.

Of course, there are also some people who, not for such superficial reasons, do not try to accompany Shenji.

Outside the Central Hospital of Lange City, a middle-aged man, who looks not very old, looks at the hospital with complicated eyes. He can feel that his son and daughter-in-law are among them. For his... Grandson or granddaughter? Forget it. Mind him.

All in all, they are happy and happy.

However, as a "grandfather", he has all kinds of feelings in his heart.

"Shenji..."

Chris Radcliffe, who used to be Chris Radcliffe, and now fillstner Chris, whose surname is fillstner Chris, let out a long breath: "is this fate?"

His father wanted to. For rights, for responsibilities.

He didn't want it. For freedom, for evasion of responsibility.

His son knew nothing about all this and has grown up to this day.

But his grandson got it without knowing it.

It entangles the desire and desire of four generations, which entangles the cause and effect and circulation of four generations. Once again, it is linked to the person who holds the blood of Radcliffe family. He can even hear that the divine machine that has not yet been born from me is cheering and singing, which is born out of the contract of Radcliffe family, It's exciting to be in touch with the blood of the original owner.

"Lucky little fellow, my grandson... Unlike me who has evaded responsibility and is not qualified to have it again, you know nothing about it and do not have to bear any responsibility... Because someone has cut off the fate of blood, so that you can grow up freely."

The chain of cause and effect belonging to the Radcliffe family is also linked to all human beings and even all intelligent life in the future.

The middle-aged man sighed with relief and sighed in silence. The blonde lady gently put her hand on the back of her husband's hand. She thought it was just because he was going to be a grandfather, so the lady named Sophie whispered: "don't sigh, old man, it's all good."

"Yes. It's all good. Wait, you guy, I'm not old! " Subconsciously, Chris responded and pretended to be angry with his wife, who covered his mouth and chuckled: "I'll let you know my strength tonight - add another brother and sister to fafnier!"

"... yes. It's all good. "

Over the city of Lange, the winged girl with blue hair and black wings overlooks the whole city. No. 3 looks at the Central Hospital of the city with complicated eyes. She looks at the scene of "human" and "goblin", and "physical life" and "spiritual life" giving birth to offspring. She doesn't know whether it's Wunai or happily shakes her head: "the blood of Radcliffe family, Is it hard to be successful? Do you naturally like non-human beings? Even the goblins can do it... But it's a good thing. "

"If it wasn't for me to allocate resources for related research... Hum, do these two little guys really think that they can find out the way to breed offspring so quickly? This pregnancy looks perfect, and I really have no problem with my thinking. "

The mode of human reproduction, with the efforts of her and countless others, has changed.

——It's all good.

AI, which promotes all this development behind her, nods slightly. Then, she turns her head and looks at the whole Lange city.

Naturally, a large number of accompanying Shenji came into her eyes."... I can't believe that there is still such a day."

3 No. 1 looks at the creation of her former mother's world, which has gradually developed into what it is now. With the efforts of her and Lord Moldavia's house, Shenji has gradually become an indispensable thing in the present and future of mccrov civilization. Her feelings are not only gratified, but also a little complicated.

All efforts and struggles have paid off... But can you see that person now?

He certainly can. You can definitely make it.

"Joshua, it's not peaceful in the multi stars world now... Not only that, but people's hearts are beginning to crumble."

In this way, No. 3 will naturally open magic net. As the terminal of human spirit, one of the central administrators of magic net, and the high-level of mirov civilization, she will naturally be able to connect the whole multi Star River and know many myshines that ordinary people can't know.

As you can see, there are many anxious posts and anonymous communication strings in the major forums.

[recently, the multi Star River Joint Conference was held, and even the third multi civilization Invitational Competition has been suspended. Is there something big to happen again

[during the conference, magic net cracked down, and the following words (with links) are strictly prohibited in the discussion]

[it's said that there's a natural disaster at the other end of the multi Star River. The netizens around Biros star river haven't heard from them. They were playing online in the arena some time ago, but they suddenly cut off the line in the middle of the fight. They've been used to it for several years]

[pray, donate, All the netizens in the world are one, we are all from the big league

[what's the use of blessing donations? Official aid has been sent out for a long time. It's said that the legendary swordsman and the new pope are still leading the team. Now ordinary people like us can wait for news]

[alas, I know it's far away from us, but I don't know why, I always feel flustered...]

3 Compared with the official forum, which can guide public opinion, this kind of place only applies for a series of sections for secret discussion, which can truly express the ideas of outstanding people. Although the invasion of darkness and chaos is not completely told to the public, it is an increasingly tense social situation and many trends, It always makes some sharp people nervous and guess something.

"Brandon, loranda, as a pioneer, has been going to the other side of the Ross River for three years. The shadow space connecting the world with the shadow sages has really made communication convenient... But if they don't block it, the evil gods can also invade the world as easily."

Thinking of this, No. 3's face darkened slightly: "as the interpreter of the big information base, the bearer and manager of magic net, I can only stay in the rear... I always feel that I can't help you. I can only do something about magic tricks."

However, he was unwilling to do so. Even if he got the inheritance of the God of the sky and reached the legendary realm in the general sense, he became the second legendary strong man in the Lord's mansion except Joshua. However, No. 3 was still very clear that he was not good at fighting and could not help others in this aspect.

In this way, she subconsciously opened a private high-density forum. As you can see, few people spoke in this simple forum. The latest two posts were just a few days ago.

But the content of the post is particularly shocking.

The first post was sent by a user with the ID of "love, physical missionary and friendliness". The content of the post is exactly the scene of "Biros Galaxy" mentioned in the previous anonymous discussion string.

It was a star field on the edge of Biros galaxy. Originally, it was desolate and uninhabited. However, under the repeated determination of the knowledge receiver, mccroff's explorers excavated a large-scale trail of the pioneers of the age of the demon sage here.

But now, the original relic world has become the fortress star field today. Centered on the whole pioneer relic group, large areas of empty fortresses and world fortresses are like a wall made of steel, which blocks the whole star field tightly and becomes a very solid fortress group.

At least hundreds of civilizations are making blood transfusions here and constantly casting fortresses. You can see that there are dozens of different styles in this vast fortress community, mixed with almost all the supernatural forces and their corresponding derivative forces. The powerful and extraordinary fluctuations even distort the light of this star field, making the whole side of the Biros galaxy, They all sparkle with twisted iridescence.

The second post is from the user with ID "sword of protecting the short". The content of the post is about the interpretation of the internal literature of the pioneer level relics in the river of Biros.

[this is a legacy of a civilization named "barod" left before it was on the verge of destruction. The content is very long and complex. It describes the history and development process of their whole civilization, as well as their key technologies. I have uploaded more important information to omega District of the unified database, and then enter the corresponding secret key to browse it][however, for us, the most important information is not those materials, but their regrets and feelings before their demise]

["we made the wrong decision to lower our civilization level to avoid the destruction of evil spirits... It's really a big mistake. After self castration, evil spirits will not take the initiative, But it doesn't mean that the family members will ignore us, and the more the family members are, the more the evil gods will pour their eyes on us... Sure enough, just as the "sages" put it, evasion can't solve the problem, it can only be solved by the problem. "

[recently, there have been a lot of negative comments in magic net, as well as related statements by escapists who fight against self-confidence. Among them, there are even many acquaintances who hope to settle in the world of shelters. When ostriches escape from the invasion of evil spirits... Seriously, that's the last moment. After our defeat, we leave the survivors a refuge, not something to escape from, No one can live in it for nothing without blood. I hope you can make arrangements, guide the relevant public opinion, and strictly investigate the pessimistic speech]

The user's speech was very fierce, and it seemed that he was really angry. Although he didn't say heavy words, his language was very strict.

It's no use escaping. Just as the man always said, only when we face the hardships, can we get a chance of survival. No victory will come for no reason. We have to fight to get a chance for the safe start of the shelter world in the future

"Yes, just as the man said..."

Suspended in the sky, No. 3 raised her head and looked up into the sky. Her eyes penetrated the sky and went straight into the void: "just as you always said."

"But, when will you be able to appear in front of us, really, say it yourself?"

AI clearly knows that it won't be long... Deep in the magic net, at the core of the creation vortex, the huge pulse is getting more and more rapid and huge.

"This year is the eighth year for you to leave the normal multi Star River and go to the creation vortex."

This is the eighth year that Joshua van Radcliffe has entered the creation vortex.

The time is coming
