Chapter 18 He Xi's Lecture
Li Yao organized his thoughts and explained:
"It's mainly because of the quantum engine inside my body."
"Teacher, you know best that it has always been difficult to control."
"I think that if I can upgrade to the third-generation divine body, both computing power and stability will be greatly improved, which should allow me to control it better."
He paused, then said earnestly:
"Moreover, I have a feeling that the known universe may never be as peaceful as it used to be."
"Teacher, I don't want to hide in Tiancheng forever, under your and the Queen's wings."
"If storms are coming in the future, I hope I have the ability to stand up and protect our home."
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the call, then He Xi said with relief, "Xiao Yao, you've grown up."
But the next second, her tone switched back to its familiar tone.
"However, I guess you just happened to have enough resources on hand, right?"
"You just traded some materials for a third-generation divine body with Lieyang, and you can't wait to use them?"
It's not surprising that He Xi knew about this; Li Yao had already reported the deal with Lie Yang beforehand.
"Teacher, you're mistaken," Li Yao said with a hint of smugness. "I didn't just have one, I had two."
"Two portions?" He Xi was somewhat surprised. "Besides the one from the crocodile, where did the other portion come from?"
"Teacher, do you still remember Sumari?"
Li Yao then gave a brief account of his previous "chance encounter" with Sumali.
However, this process was definitely artistically embellished.
For example, he discovered Sumali by chance, and Sumali voluntarily offered up his treasure in exchange for survival. He also truthfully reported that the dark data was taken away by unknown individuals.
"Sumali..."
After listening, He Xi's tone became somewhat detached: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten that such a person existed."
"Teacher, I heard that he is someone you knew."
Li Yao tentatively asked, "I've taken care of him, you won't blame me, will you?"
"Why blame you?" He Xi chuckled. "If it weren't for some other factors back then, I would have killed him with my own hands long ago."
She seemed to know what Li Yao was about to ask next, and cut him off directly:
"We'll discuss the specific reasons when you return to Tiancheng. Let's get down to business first."
"Xiao Yao, turn on the holographic projection now."
Li Yao did as instructed.
Instantly, a stunningly beautiful woman dressed in silver casual clothes with cascading silver hair appeared inside the cabin; it was none other than He Xi's projection.
At the same time, a floating teaching screen also appeared.
Seeing this, Li Yao was a little confused: "Teacher, what's going on...?"
"Shh, be quiet."
He Xi's projection raised its right hand, and a slender pointer appeared in its hand at some point.
She pointed to the screen and said with a serious expression, "Let's begin class."
Oh, so he's been indulging in his teaching addiction again.
As a long-lived species that has lived for over 30,000 years, He Xi naturally cultivated many hobbies to pass the time, one of which was occasionally indulging in her passion for teaching.
Li Yao silently complained in his heart.
He had no choice but to sit up straight and adopt the posture of a good student listening attentively.
Seeing this, He Xi nodded in satisfaction and lightly tapped the screen with the pointer:
"Then let's first trace the development of super genes and divine body technology."
"You've probably seen this information in the sacred treasury of knowledge, but it might not be systematic enough, or even seem a bit disorganized."
Li Yao nodded obediently.
Indeed, I often got confused when I read the original work in my previous life, as the settings sometimes contradicted each other.
Although this life can be searched in the knowledge base, most of it is rather scattered.
Of course, the most important thing is to let your own teacher have a good time.
He Xi began to speak in detail:
"Whether it's so-called gods or super soldiers, they are all products of genetic technology."
"Our Angel Civilization was originally just ordinary humans from the Divine River. It was only after a long period of development that we embarked on the path of genetic technology and developed the most primitive Angel Gene."
"Until the establishment of the Heavenly Court of Merlo more than 30,000 years ago, the vast majority of angel warriors only possessed primitive super genes."
"In that era, there was no distinction between generations. Although the strength of warriors from different civilizations varied, their overall potential was not high, their lifespan was limited, and they could even be killed by the most primitive firearms."
"Later, something called divine body technology was developed."
"You can think of it as a powerful piece of hardware, but it's more than just hardware."
"Essentially, it is a technological system that complements and is deeply integrated with super genes."
"The earliest first-generation divine body technology mainly aimed to extend lifespan and strengthen the body, making people immune to ordinary thermal weapons and possessing a certain degree of self-repair ability."
"Later, iterative upgrades were made based on it, resulting in the second-generation divine body technology."
"With the development of the times and the continuous updating of technology, scholars have turned to directly integrating the core advantages of divine body technology into the new generation of super genes."
"This gave newly born super soldiers the characteristics of the first and second generation of divine bodies from birth."
"The super soldiers of this era were all collectively referred to as gods."
He Xi tapped the screen lightly with her pointer, her tone revealing a hint of pride:
"Until the advent of the third-generation divine body technology, this was an epoch-making milestone."
"It has truly achieved immortality!"
"It has an infinite lifespan, can sustain itself on energy alone, is immune to nuclear weapons, and even ordinary-level cosmic disasters cannot threaten it."
"Therefore, the known universe's definition of God has been updated."
"Most of the time, only super gene warriors with a third-generation divine body or higher are called gods."
"The previous 'gods' were more specifically referred to as first-generation or second-generation super soldiers based on their actual performance."
Li Yao does know this.
The concept of "god" was first spread by the Shenhe civilization.
But it is never static; it evolves with the times.
As more and more civilizations master the technology of the fourth-generation divine body, perhaps only the fourth generation can be called gods.
"As for the third generation..."
He Xi paused here, then suddenly asked Li Yao, "Little Yao, you must have heard quite a few rumors about the third generation, right?"
Li Yao's eyes lit up; his opportunity had arrived!
Listening to lectures can be a bit boring, so we need some entertainment to lighten the mood.
He cleared his throat, ready to get a little mischievous.
He was about to speak when He Xi immediately said, "After I finish explaining what I have to say, you should have no more questions."
Li Yao: "..."
His mouth was open, but the lines he had prepared were stuck in his throat.
He had originally intended to playfully list a series: "Yes, there are three generations of super genes, three generations of combat techniques, three generations of super soldiers, three generations of divine bodies, three generations of gods, and so on..."
Then, while He Xi was still stunned, she innocently asked, "Teacher, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Unexpectedly, the other party directly predicted his prediction!
Looking at his expression, He Xi felt secretly pleased: Little brat, you still want to play these tricks on your teacher? I've figured out all your schemes long ago!
Her two students had completely different listening styles.
Zhi Xin is the obedient and serious type, while the one in front of her is the mischievous type who seizes every opportunity.
I don't know where she learned this personality from.
She leaned closer, feigning concern, and asked:
"Xiao Yao, what's wrong? You look a little pale. Are you feeling unwell?"
