The generational change that occurred in the mid-21st century is an unprecedented process. It is the first time that humans have completely changed the genes of their species. Humanity has changed from "Homo sapiens" to "baseline homo" who are reproductively isolated from Homo sapiens.

This is the first time in history that there are truly "two kinds of human beings". Although in history, when ethnic groups with large differences in appearance came into contact, there were many situations where "one party did not regard the other as a human being" or "both parties regarded each other as 'other than human'". But in most cases, those ancient people knew that they could produce offspring with other ethnic groups, and there was no "reproductive isolation". Even between Homo sapiens and Neanderthals, there is interbreeding.

But there is real reproductive isolation between Homo sapiens and Homo sapiens.

But the amazing thing is that there is an undeniable blood relationship between the first generation of baseline humans and Homo sapiens. The information in the chromosomes of this generation’s baseline human is copied from itself in the era of Homo sapiens. They have a blood connection with their parents.

Humanity has never encountered anything like this. After Europeans formally invented "nationalism", humans have been accustomed to describing everything in terms of "nation" for hundreds of years. However, Yawgmoth created a collection on a higher level.

This fact has a powerful impact on the cognition of human society.

The entire middle of the 21st century is a magnificent era. Even the impact of world war on mankind is far less than this event.

In this wave, the original vested interests can no longer hold on to what they have. When benchmark people account for more than half of the total human population, benchmark people urgently need a group to speak out for the benchmark people group. A politician who is a benchmark person will naturally gain more support from benchmark people.

After the superior abilities of the biological level of the baseline people are gradually revealed, most of the remaining population who can become the baseline people will want to become the baseline people.

As time goes by, the proportion of Homo sapiens in the human population will continue to decline - for no other reason than that the growth cycle of baseline humans is regulated using the genetic information of Homo sapiens. But the baseline human lifespan is too long.

As the number of baseline humans expands, the scale of agriculture for Homo sapiens will continue to shrink, and the cost of living for Homo sapiens will further increase.

And with the connection of public services and intelligent prosthetics, the life of Homo sapiens will become more convenient.

Xiangshan had already predicted this. He does not intend to use laws and decrees to force humans to change their species. But he has no intention of stopping this change caused by the objective laws of the economy.

The volunteers for the benchmark human transformation surgery are mostly disabled people, and then there are the upstarts in technology who have made a lot of money at a young age. This small group of people have made a fortune in the commercial field by relying on research and development. They have great trust in technology and feel that the picture described by Xiang Shan is the future, so they find ways to get themselves into the team of "able-bodied volunteers".

In addition, there are volunteers from academia and technology enthusiasts. They are all optimistic about the benchmark people, but are worried that the cost of subsequent reconstruction surgery will not be reduced, so they are willing to become the last batch of clinical trial volunteers.

The first batch of beneficiaries of the promotion came from African countries.

In fact, this was not pushed to the mountain, but came to the door proactively by several heads of state from African countries. And their reasons are surprisingly consistent, that is, these warriors who came to power through the military suddenly felt that Superman Enterprise represented the future of mankind, and planned to follow up immediately.

Upon closer inspection, it seems that these countries have received a sum of aid from several major countries in recent years, and the amount is slightly ambiguous.

Xiang Shan knew this very well, but he was "rarely confused".

As the benchmark human transformation progressed, Superman Enterprises also established localized agencies in those countries. The localized institutions of these superhuman enterprises have brought technology and information from the outside world.

The people who were the first to become prosthetics realized that the tyrant's gun didn't seem so scary anymore.

In the next ten years, these small countries basically changed their heads of state, and they looked much normal.

According to Xiangshan's estimation, this should be "no problem" coverage of genetic surgery. During each of the volunteer surgeries, biological samples will be collected regularly and sent to Yawgmoth's laboratory for testing.

For the first batch of benchmark human surgeries to be promoted in Africa, Yawgmoth was also present in person to conduct random inspections of the recipients.

At this stage, the thieves have not yet had a chance to take action.

No, thinking about it afterwards, maybe they did it at this stage.

For a long period of time, Xiang Shan has been regarded by various major countries as a guy who is "very good at painting cakes". "Good at telling stories" and "very good at making PPT" are Xiang Shan's labels.

Xiangshan is indeed good at telling stories and making PPTs, but it was only in the 1940s that humans realized that this man had more than this ambition.

After the Superman Enterprise achieved a series of successes in African countries, the military of major countries took the lead in rolling out transformation surgeries and quickly promoted them to civilians.

People and funds from various countries were quickly injected into this already huge multinational enterprise.

At this moment, Xiangshan believes that the historical mission of Superman Enterprises has been completed for the most part. After the "Prosthetization" is fully rolled out, it will be necessary to pass anti-monopoly rules to allow various countries to break up Superman Enterprises. People suspected of having a background in a major country ate them all.

Xiangshan confirmed this through the news.

He used Zhu Xinyu's computer and backdoor to obtain news that he had never noticed.

For example, the unexpected deaths of several wealthy people.

For example, take the military coups in several African countries.

These things are not too unusual. But Xiangshan soon discovered what they had in common.

In these incidents, the deceased were the original volunteers or the first recipients of the surgery.

To be precise, it is the individuals in that group who have management skills, military skills or professional and technical knowledge.

Xiangshan had met these people more than ten years ago out of admiration. They are either trendsetters surfing the trend of the times, or idealists who are determined to change the poor destiny of their countries. Xiangshan has a high opinion of them.

Then, they died.

This is a conscious sniping.

Xiangshan went to look for information on other volunteers. He found some people's names in the corners of the news and in police records.

Car accidents, slipping and drowning, fires...

and missing.
