36: Chapter 36 The US Begins Actions, Coercing China!
The several high-ranking Dragon Army generals sitting nearby watched Lin Mo shed tears.
Their emotions were also stirred, and their approval of Lin Mo deepened even further.
Only someone with profound feelings for the Dragon Army and a deep love for China would show such uncontrollable emotion!
Comrade Lin Mo is truly a national treasure.
"Junior brother, wipe your face,"
"Seeing you like this, I want to cry too, woo woo woo..."
Lin Mo took the tissue handed over by Ren Xueyi and secretly wiped away his tears.
Then, while eating the fruit and snacks at the victory celebration, he continued to take stock of the huge gains from this time.
The biggest gain, of course, was that after the system upgraded to 2.0, a huge pile of various fighter jet technologies was unlocked!
However, the second gain was also very critical.
Prestige points could finally be used to redeem items!
"It's actually a Genetic Supplement..."
Lin Mo pondered as he looked at the system's description of this Genetic Supplement.
Regarding the future technologies previously in the system, he had the confidence that as long as development continued, whether it took twenty or fifty years, they would definitely be developed.
But this thing called gene editing and recombination... it's not just a matter of time!
Genetic engineering touches upon human taboos!
In his past life, all genetic engineering experiments using living organisms or even humans were strictly prohibited by every country!
It wasn't that they couldn't be researched, but that gene editing would create extreme inequality, ultimately creating a broken window effect!
Humans at the bottom of society would completely degenerate into lower-class people, never able to rise again!
Moreover, because the experimental process of genetic engineering is completely uncontrollable, just like guessing blind boxes, no one knows if the modified creatures are still human.
If they don't even look human, even if they have intelligence, can they still be treated as humans?
The public order and good customs of human society will inevitably be impacted.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo frowned deeply.
In the future of China on Blue Star, genetic engineering was eventually forced to start and achieved great success!
"I don't know how the future world line will turn out..."
"To actually be able to break taboos and have such great development in human genetic technology!"
"This is not something that happens overnight..."
Lin Mo pondered in his heart, then quickly shook his head.
These things had nothing to do with him.
He continued reading the system's introduction to the two major Genetic Supplements.
First was the Azure Dragon Warrior Genetic Supplement.
The main effect of this Genetic Supplement was to greatly improve human physical fitness!
After injection, within 24 hours, it could allow an ordinary person to achieve strength comparable to professional weightlifters, discus throwers, or javelin throwers, and physical stamina comparable to professional marathon runners!
Speed and reaction ability would also be greatly improved.
The second was the White Dragon Strategist Genetic Supplement, mainly for the re-development of brain potential.
It could greatly improve memory ability.
Reading ten lines at a glance, never forgetting what one sees!
It could allow ordinary people to easily win the championship of the "Super Brain" program!
More importantly, it greatly increased the brain's fatigue recovery rate.
Normal people need at least six hours of sleep a day to stay energetic.
After brain development, they only need one hour of sleep!
"It's good, but!"
"It's just too expensive!"
Looking at the high redemption prices of the two Genetic Supplements, Lin Mo felt distressed.
One was 40,000, the other 60,000.
He had saved for so long and even completed a 20,000 prestige point upgrade mission, and currently only had 30,000 prestige points.
He couldn't afford a single Genetic Supplement even if he went bankrupt!
Moreover, he was in scientific research, so even if he were to redeem one, he would have to redeem the Strategist supplement...
Also, there was a very annoying aspect to prestige point redemption.
Only by reaching one million prestige points could he receive the second system upgrade mission.
If he spent all his prestige points on redeeming items, who knows when he would be able to unlock the third tier of technology?
Lin Mo naturally knew that climbing the technology tree was the hard truth!
Lin Mo stopped overthinking.
Amidst laughter and cheers, the victory celebration continued.
Across the ocean.
With the successive actions of the Eagle Country Pentagon and the CIA, the sky changed color.
At the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, "What are you doing! We are Chinese, we have visas!"
The Eagle Country police chief ordered viciously, "They are all spies, arrest them all!"
Three professor-level scholars from China who had come to Eagle Country for academic exchange, and a manager from a China Military Industry enterprise who came to Eagle Country to discuss trade cooperation, were detained and restricted by the CIA on the grounds of being suspected spies.
At the same time, Eagle Country dispatched ten of its most advanced F-22 Raptor supersonic stealth fighter jets from the Guam base, flying at low altitude along the edge of China's coastline.
The deafening sonic booms resounded through the sky, and all coastal cities sounded air defense alarms!
"Prepare for air raids! All citizens, take shelter in air-raid shelters!"
"Prepare for air raids! All citizens, take shelter in air-raid shelters!"
After receiving the news, the Chinese Ambassador to Eagle Country immediately went to negotiate.
Finally, he received a reply that was almost enough to infuriate anyone to death.
"China must return the Individual Exoskeleton Armor technology stolen from Eagle Country to Eagle Country!"
Once these words were spoken, it caused an uproar worldwide.
On the social networks of Western Alliance countries, people constantly mocked and even abused China.
They said that China's current technological level was at least fifty years behind Eagle Country, so how could it possibly produce such cutting-edge Exoskeleton Armor technology!
Moreover, Eagle Country had publicly stated that Chinese spies had indeed stolen high-end technology under the guise of scholars; how could the most advanced and free country lie?
"China steals, China is shameless!"
"The nation of thieves, China!"
"China must hand over the technology!"
Soon, the news spread to Chinese social networks.
Before the netizens could start to get angry, some public intellectuals and spiritual Eagle Country people immediately jumped out to act as "rational middle-grounders."
Even worse, they started attacking China directly.
"To be fair, if we really stole the technology, the technology should still be returned. After all, we have already profited greatly, so we can't take advantage and still act innocent."
"I am really ashamed of those scholars who stole the technology. China's thousands of years of good virtues have all been thrown away by them! I can't stay in this China for even a second longer!"
"Eagle Country, please don't cancel my visa because of this incident. My green card application is about to be approved! I'm so pissed off!"
Looking at this foul atmosphere on the internet, countless Chinese netizens couldn't sit still and started cursing at these spiritual Eagle Country people.
"Can't you idiots use your brains to think? ? ?"
"If we in China really stole the technology, why can't Eagle Country produce the Exoskeleton Armor itself?!"
"If a country's cutting-edge technology is stolen, how could it possibly surpass the technological level of the so-called victim country?"
