“Let’s talk as we walk.”Jiang Fei immediately confirmed this matter.
“Alright!”Lina nodded. Then, she let a clone warrior pilot the mech to help the clone recruits who were charging ahead. Then, she walked side by side with Jiang Fei as they walked, she began to explain the Life Extension Center to Jiang Fei as well.
“This Life Extension Center is actually a large-scale clone experimental base!”Lina said slowly. What she said was basically the same as what Jiang Fei had seen before.
According to Lina, This Life Extension Center was just like its name. The main purpose of its existence was to ensure the population of the gamma s.p.a.ce. It was to prevent the death of the gamma s.p.a.ce people due to the lack of population.
Through the research of the gamma s.p.a.ce people, the higher the dimension of life, the weaker their reproduction ability was. This led to the beginning of the four-dimensional gamma s.p.a.ce. The number of intelligent creatures here was actually decreasing gradually.
Although the decrease was relatively small, as their technological level continued to improve and their cognitive level continued to increase, the ability to reproduce also continued to decline.
It was just like the old saying in Jiang Fei’s hometown: the heavens are always fair!
Although the high-dimensional s.p.a.ce had an overwhelming advantage over the low-dimensional s.p.a.ce, even if there was a spatial compensation mechanism, it would not be able to make up for the difference in strength between the two sides. After all, after finding a way.., people in the high-dimensional s.p.a.ce could almost do whatever they wanted in the low-dimensional s.p.a.ce.
However, as a price, the higher the dimension of the intelligent life form, the weaker their ability to reproduce. The gamma s.p.a.ce was only the fourth dimension, so their ability to reproduce was still pa.s.sable. With the discovery of technology, until now.., their population had only shown a slight negative growth. If they wanted to die out naturally, it would take thousands of years.
However, the rulers of the gamma s.p.a.ce had clearly realized this problem. If they couldn’t balance this, they would either give up on the exploration of technology.., or they would have to watch their race die out.
Hence, the Life Extension Center appeared. The gamma s.p.a.ce people used human cloning technology to try to make up for the negative growth in the population. However, the problem they faced was just as severe. That was starting from the fourth dimension, souls would not be automatically generated. This was something that Jiang Fei did not know before.
Back on Earth, Jiang Fei had used human cloning technology. Many girls, including Bella, were brought out of the game world by Jiang Fei through human cloning technology. At that time.., jiang Fei had to be careful when the clone matured. Because if it was too early, the clone would automatically generate consciousness. In other words, it would generate a soul out of thin air!
In the gamma s.p.a.ce, this was something that absolutely did not exist. In this gamma s.p.a.ce, a clone was a clone. It would never “Come alive”by itself. Just like when Jiang Fei asked for “Inspection”previously.., lina’s subordinates pushed a clone across the market. The clone did not say that it would become self-aware and have its own soul.
The purpose of the Life Extension Center was to balance the negative growth of the population. In that case, it was clearly impossible for them to just clone human bodies. They had to let the clones come back to life so that they could integrate into society, thus, they could make up for the negative growth of the population.
However, the souls in the gamma s.p.a.ce would not appear out of thin air. Therefore, the scientists in the gamma s.p.a.ce developed a very complicated device. It could extract powerful souls from the low-lat.i.tude s.p.a.ce, it would let them enter the gamma s.p.a.ce.
After these souls entered the gamma s.p.a.ce, their original memories would be washed away and they would be thrown into the bodies of the clones. Because the Life Extension Center was an official operation, it existed only to make up for the negative growth of the population, so when it cloned people, it did its best to maintain the laws of nature.
In this way, there was only one difference between the clones in the Life Extension Center and normal gamma s.p.a.ce people. Apart from having no parents, they were the same as others, growing up from infancy, all the way until they went to school, graduated, and integrated into society.
Therefore, after these clones entered society, no one knew that they were clones. They had their own ident.i.ty codes, their own careers, and their own families. They lived a life that was no different from an ordinary person.
They were not like the soldiers that were cloned by the public security officers. They were born to serve someone.
“I see…”Jiang Fei nodded.
“HMM, actually, we are not the only ones who have to face such a problem. Intelligent creatures from higher dimensions than us will have to face a more serious problem. According to the calculations of scientists, the fertility of humans in the fifth dimension is even lower. Moreover, they are unable to obtain souls from the lower dimension. Therefore, they are either still in the primitive stage or have become extinct due to the rapid development of Technology!”Lena said to Jiang Fei.
“This…”Jiang Fei did not expect that in the higher dimensions, the creatures that should have enjoyed more privileges would actually have to face such a choice..
They could either live like primitive people, or learn to think and become extinct..
“This is too much…”Jiang Fei asked with his eyes wide open.
“Actually, this is just a guess. After all, we have never come into contact with the fifth dimension. This is just a guess made by scientists based on our situation,”Lena said to Jiang Fei.
“Oh!”Jiang Fei nodded.
“What else do you want to know?”Lena asked.
“Then, which souls did you use to clone these warriors?”Jiang Fei asked.
“Of course, they came from the three-dimensional world!”Lina said matter-of-factly.
“They also came from the three-dimensional world?”Jiang Fei was stunned.
“That’s right. In the beginning, including the Life Extension Center, we used bewitchment to obtain souls!”Lina explained. “Because of the limited technology in the past, even if we wanted to obtain souls from the three-dimensional world, it would have to be those souls that were strong enough. Therefore, we made up a lie called ‘ascension’to deceive those top experts to abandon their physical bodies and enter the four-dimensional s.p.a.ce as souls!”
“Err…”Jiang Fei was completely speechless. He had never expected that the legendary Ascension would turn out to be a huge scam!
“However, with the advancement of technology, we can now extract weaker souls from the three-dimensional world. However, the conditions are still the same. We need the souls from the three-dimensional world to actively cooperate with us. It is impossible to forcefully extract souls from the three-dimensional world,”said Lina.
“Are the people from the three-dimensional world that cooperative?”Jiang Fei asked.
