Mecha Star Wars

The incubation institute is of course not a hospital, but a place like a research institute.

The so-called centralized cultivation is really what it means literally.

"You..." Lin Fan looked at the advanced instruments in the transparent partition and didn't know what to say.

"It's really a man-made man..." Antonio muttered a nonsense word in a daze.

In the partition, the robotic arms were still waving, but the movement was not as loud as on the production line. They took out the embryos from the freezing chamber and sent them to the appropriate instruments for thawing. The robotic arms behind were performing more delicate operations - the enlarged high-definition screen showed that the probe was piercing into the cells little by little...

Looking further back, the synthesized cells were sent to an egg-shaped transparent incubation chamber with water in it. The incubation chamber with cells was quickly sucked by the robotic arms and moved to a place they couldn't see.

"After the embryo is completed, put it in the incubation chamber," Qiu Yi explained to everyone diligently, not caring about the surprised expressions of everyone on the Noah. "In the incubation chamber, the temperature and pressure are imitated from the mother's body, and the special nutrient solution can make the embryo develop better."

He started the rail car and led everyone forward.

Before Lin Fan and his companions recovered from the shock of the artificial embryos, they saw the next cabin, the neatly arranged egg-shaped embryo cabins.

Each of them was connected to countless wires of unknown function, and each had an independent display screen in front of it, with many Yuehua characters on it, indicating the properties and status of the embryos, temperature and pressure, and the time to leave the cabin...

On both sides of the long corridor, there were densely packed cultivation cabins. Lin Fan's admiration for the advanced technology had long since disappeared, and he was so depressed that he couldn't breathe.

"You..." Lin Fan wanted to ask, "Isn't this morally condemned?" But then he thought that aliens didn't even have desires, and morality... might not exist, and it would easily cause disputes, so he changed the question when the words came to his lips. "Were you all born this way?"

"Yes." Qiu Yi's voice was steady, and there was no change on her face. "The people of Yuehua Star were all born this way. In the early days, in order to improve the genetic ratio, after the embryos were synthesized and sent to the cultivation chamber, there was also genetic testing, and through artificial intervention, inferior genetic embryos were eliminated. Now our gene cells have become perfect, and the artificial intervention procedure is naturally omitted."

"So this cell comes from..." Lin Fan carefully considered his words.

"Every adult Yuehua Star has the obligation to provide cultivation genes and reproduce offspring." Qiu Yi didn't seem to feel anything wrong, and still said calmly, "We won't waste too much personal energy on reproduction. After adulthood, the breeding institute will extract reproductive cells, and then screen and match them according to each person's genes to synthesize the best embryos. Just like what you see. After the children leave the cabin, there will be special caregivers to take care of them intensively, gathering all the high-quality resources of this planet and growing together."

"Oh..." Lin Fan probably understood.

This is a new reproductive model that avoids emotional processes and legal procedures and simplifies the steps directly from the embryo. Later, they were all trained uniformly, without discrimination or difference, and everyone got the same living and educational resources...

"Excuse me." Antonio couldn't help but ask, "Do you have a gender?"

When Lin Fan heard this, he almost got angry, and tried to control his gaze towards Qiu Yi's lower body, and apologized repeatedly.

Qiu Yi seemed to really not care, and answered frankly. "Of course. Although the appearance is not obvious, we have gender differences in genes. But this difference is useless to us, so when the genes were optimized, the obvious gender characteristics were removed, and we have the perfect appearance you see now."

Fortunately, nothing happened! Lin Fan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Qiu Yi's body again.

The Yuehua people have always worn a fitted jumpsuit, and their bodies are like filled with cotton. The proportions are indeed good, but this body shape... at least the Lan people will not think it is perfect.

The chest is not undulating, and the butt is a little raised, but other than that, there is indeed no obvious gender characteristics like the Lan people. However, the Yuehua people do not need to give birth or breastfeed themselves, so it seems normal for the gender characteristics to fade.

Look at that face again. It can barely be considered perfect. Although it looks like a man, it doesn't seem abrupt if you replace it with a female face.

No wonder everyone thinks it looks good and strange. It turns out that it is achieved through acquired gene adjustment. How can it be natural and innate?

Lin Fan remembered that there was no record of this part in the museum, and she didn't ask what caused them to start artificial breeding. I vaguely remember that there seemed to be similar calls for artificial breeding on Lanxing in recent years. Maybe it is a stage of social progress.

But if you say this is progress...

She looked at both sides again as if there was no end in sight. The densely packed culture chambers really couldn't say that this was a concrete manifestation of progress.

"In this way... it seems to be just through artificial reproduction..." Andingsao seemed to be more accepting. Seeing that no one spoke, he took the initiative to speak again.

"Yes." Qiu Yi replied, "More scientific and efficient means can liberate manpower and productivity, and better promote the development of Yuehua Star. In fact, Yuehua Star has indeed developed very well as we expected."

After moving forward for a while, they finally got rid of the egg/nest-like breeding cabin and entered the brightly lit...

"What are they doing?" Lin Fan saw two Chinese people on the operating table surrounding a baby who was only a few months old, operating a robotic arm, as if to examine the child.

The little baby is chubby. Except for its big head and no hair, it doesn't look like an adult. He groaned, grinned, and moved his limbs wildly, as if he wanted to express his dissatisfaction.

"Oh, it's rare." Antonio smiled, "I can still see different expressions on the faces of you Yuehua people."

"There won't be any more soon." Seeing their interest, Qiu Yi stopped the car. "After the children who leave the cabin reach 100 days old, they will come here to undergo sympathotomy surgery to cut off the nerves that control emotions. From then on, we will no longer be disturbed by useless emotions."

! ! !

Everyone on the Noah was shocked, the translator girl directly covered her mouth, and even Melinir frowned.

It turns out that the Yuehua people have always had a cold face because the nerves that control their emotions have long been cut off!

"You mean," Jin Sichen couldn't help but say, "when you were born, your emotional nerves were normal, but through artificial intervention, they were cut off in infancy, which led to your current state of neither sadness nor joy? "

"Yes."

"Why is this?" Lin Fan was puzzled.

She had always thought that the Yuehua people's lack of emotions was due to genetic differences, but she never expected that it was the result of their own creation.

"Emotions can produce excess emotions that interfere with our efficiency and mislead correct judgment. Our ancestors have tried for many years to come to the conclusion that emotions are harmful to us rather than helpful, so direct removal is the best."

But can a person who has no emotions and can only think and work still be considered a human being? Even if they also have flesh and blood.

Lin Fan wanted to say that this was not the case, that relationships had many benefits, but he thought that he had been stuck in the quagmire of relationships, and he still had not completely shaken off the mud...

If she also cuts off that nerve, will she not have to be afraid, impulsive, or hesitant in the future, and can think in the most rational way...

Jin Sichen pushed Lin Fan, interrupting her thoughts.

"But such a young child has never even experienced what emotion is, so he was passively lost." Antonio felt unfair. "If you really feel that it is a burden, you can wait until you are older and then choose to have it removed on your own. Why don't you give your child the right to choose?" Woolen cloth?"

"Children don't have a choice." Qiu Yi replied still tepidly.

Anyone else would have had some other emotions because of Lin Fan's questions, but his nerves in this area had long been cut off, and he would neither be angry nor offended.

"Our current situation proves that the choice of our ancestors is the most suitable and the best. We don't need the right to choose, we just need to do our own things well and be effective in our positions." Qiu Yi continued to be expressionless. He replied, seeing that everyone was no longer interested in the surgery inside the cabin, he controlled the rail car and continued to move forward.

Lin Fan looked at the back of Qiu Yi's smooth head, straight body, and precise movements, as if he saw a huge mechanical arm on the assembly line.

They have no emotions, no questions, they just know how to carry out their instructions efficiently and correctly.

The entire Yuehua Star seems to be a huge machine, and everyone is a part of it, cold and advanced.

If the outcome of the development of civilization is like this...

Will Lan Xing become like this one day?
