"and then?"

Shocked is shocked. After the mood calms down, curiosity replaces shock. Yang Yi is ready with both hands. If this is a dream, then it is irrelevant. Even if it is not a dream, you have to figure out the ins and outs. All in all, no matter how incredible it is, it is better to know than not to know.

"In the next few months, we touched on this spacecraft. Of course, we only learned after the fact that there was an autonomous life detection system on the spacecraft, and it was operating normally. Simply put, in our This system was activated when I boarded the comet. The nanorobots released by the system extracted my genes, combined with your grandmother's genes, and cultivated an embryo in your grandmother’s sex, which made your grandmother pregnant. Of course. , The actual situation is more complicated, but your grandmother is indeed pregnant with my son." Yang Feng paused for a while, then said again. "A few months later, we have basically grasped the situation of this spacecraft, and this has resulted in differences.

"Disagreement?"

"At that time, I thought very naively, thinking that this spaceship does not belong to us, but the wealth of human civilization, we have no right to own it alone."

"Where is grandmother?"

"It happened to be the opposite of mine. To be precise, she didn't think it was the right decision to hand over this spaceship to the Human Federation, and she believed that doing so would only harm, not benefit."

Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, and didn't quite understand what Yang Feng meant.

"For this, we have a dispute. However, we all know that with our abilities, we cannot fully grasp the advanced technology on this spacecraft. It will be a matter of time before handing over to the Earth authorities. Besides, we are in another one. There is also a similar view on the issue, that is, before this, it is necessary to understand the spacecraft as much as possible and master the core technology, so as not to be controlled by others when the spacecraft is handed over to the Earth authorities in the future."

"what do you mean… "

"We have stayed in the Kuiper Belt for ten years and spent five years flying to the Kuiper Belt, so there is no need to rush back."

Yang Yi was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood.

"It's just that one thing that happened a few months later changed everything completely."

"whats the matter?"

Yang Feng sighed, and after a while, he said: "Fifteen years, it is not short. My grandmother and I were the first interstellar explorers to go to the Kuiper belt. When we set out, this profession just appeared, but Without recognition, at least most civilians are difficult to accept. Although fifteen years have not changed much, batch after batch of explorers returned to Earth with ice comets, and turned from abject poverty to huge wealth overnight. Interstellar exploration It has become very attractive. Not only are more people joining the team of explorers, some large companies with strong financial resources have also invested heavily, such as building a forward base in the orbit of Uranus to support interstellar expeditions. As a result, it has become easier to search for ice comets in the Kuiper Belt, and the threshold for interstellar exploration has been greatly reduced."

Yang Yi frowned and waited patiently for Yang Feng to continue.

"In the year we set off, there were a total of seven expedition teams, and after fifteen years, more than one hundred expedition teams set out from the Uranus advance base."

"You mean..."

"One of them found us."

"Find?"

"In addition to the rapid increase in the expedition team, the detection methods of the Kuiper Belt have also been enhanced. It is no longer difficult to find a small celestial body with a diameter of one kilometer."

"and then?"

"At the time, I was still naive, thinking that this was a chance to return to Earth. But, your grandmother has always been cautious and prepared." Yang Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head, and said, "When that spaceship appeared, I took the initiative. Send a signal. If it weren't for your grandmother to take precautions, I am afraid we would be over. No matter when, the amazing wealth must be greedy and conflict."

"You were attacked?"

"It's not us, but them."

"This… "

"Although that ship is more advanced and equipped with weapons than the one we're in, but the guys who plot badly underestimated us. When they tried to get rid of us and occupy the ship from outside the solar system, they triggered your grandmother. Set up the defense system."

"The results of it?"

"It's obvious."

Yang Yi was stunned for a moment, but immediately thought that those guys would definitely not end well, otherwise Yang Feng would not be able to live until now.

"This conflict happened very suddenly and ended very quickly. When I discovered the anomaly, the guys who sneaked aboard the spacecraft had been killed by the automatic defense system. At that time, your grandmother had been pregnant in October, and was not ready to give birth. In ten days. Although your father came to this world by relying on the medical equipment on the spacecraft, your grandmother has blood type AB, while your father and I have blood type B."

"This… "

"I can't save her, I can only watch her close her eyes."

An inexplicable grief hit my heart. Although I have never seen my grandmother, the feelings between blood relatives will not dissipate because of time and distance.

"You can’t blame others, you can only blame me. If I didn’t think too naively, if I didn’t take the initiative to send out navigation signals, if I didn’t trust those guys credulously, if... even if you just keep the minimum guard, your grandmother won’t Died of postpartum hemorrhage."

"grandfather… "

"Before she died, she held my hand and asked me to take care of our children. This incident made me believe her and also made me realize how naive the previous thoughts were." Yang Feng sighed and smiled bitterly. He said, "Although it is too late to resurrect her from the dead, I have to live, not for myself, but for her dying entrustment, for the only blood of the two of us in this world."

Yang Yi gritted his teeth, feeling sad for a while.

"Actually, it is the easiest thing for us to survive. After annihilating the enemy, we have two spaceships, two complete ecosystems, and a large number of supplies. The fusion materials on the two spaceships are enough to make one The ecosystem has been running for hundreds of years."

"You haven't returned to Earth?"

Yang Feng nodded and said, "It is obvious that, let alone the spacecraft from outside the solar system, just the rare metal used to build the spacecraft can cause a murderous disaster. Even if we can return smoothly, the earth authorities will never treat us well, because At that time, everyone believed that human beings were unique in the universe. They did not believe that there were other intelligent civilizations in the depths of the universe. It was even more impossible to believe that humans were not the protists of the solar system, but came from outside the solar system. Years ago, the fruits of the seeds of life planted by a powerful civilization. No matter from which point of view, the Earth authorities will definitely block the news, and the first thing to do is to get rid of the source of the news."

Yang Yi did not refute such a simple truth.

"If I am alone, nothing can be changed. I have been hiding in the Kuiper Belt for decades at most. After being forgotten by everyone, I quietly returned to the Earth Federation. From then on, I stay anonymous and spend the rest of my life in obscurity. It's just that I am not alone, and I am destined not to I will die alone."

"You mean..."

"Your father, not only my son, but also your grandmother's son, is a miracle, a miracle that I still can't believe."

"Miracle?" Yang Yi was very surprised.

"It was a miracle for your grandmother to be pregnant with your father, and what this miraculous event brought about must be a miraculous result."

"This… "

"At the beginning, I said, your grandmother was able to conceive your father because the life detection system on the spacecraft used nano-robots, which combined the genes of my grandmother and your grandmother to cultivate a brand new life. Obviously, this It is completely different from the normal way of human reproduction. To put it simply, the father and the mother do not each have half of their genes, but they combine the excellent genes of the father and the mother."

Yang Yi was stunned, Yang Feng's remarks were really amazing.

"Obviously, your father inherited all the good genes of my and your grandmother. However, this is not all. If this is the case, your father is just a very good ordinary person, essentially still a human being, and has not surpassed a human being. "Yang Feng paused for a while before saying, "At the time, your grandmother and I didn't realize this. We just thought that having a child is the most important thing. Until your father grows up, everything is extraordinary. I realized that his appearance was originally a miracle. In fact, it’s not difficult to understand why this is the case. Simply put, your father was pieced together from the genetic fragments of my grandmother and it was on the surface of the comet. Completed, not only has a large number of gene combinations that are impossible in the natural state appear, but also has undergone mutations under cosmic rays."

"This… "

"Fortunately, the life detection system that operates all of this has a self-checking function. When combining these gene fragments, the inferior parts are stripped, and all the good parts remain. Because many gene fragments are impossible to reproduce through natural reproduction, so Your father is an existence beyond human beings."

"Superman!?"

"It's okay to say that, but it's not quite accurate."

"What should I say?"

Yang Feng smiled faintly, and said, "These are all things that I only met afterwards. The first thing your father showed was an IQ that far exceeded that of ordinary people."

"clever?"

"It's definitely not as simple as being smart. He learned how to operate a computer when he was three years old, and then he learned twelve common languages through the computer in only half a year. At the age of five, his IQ exceeded one hundred and five. Seven At the age of 10, he transformed the ecosystem and doubled the efficiency of energy use. At the age of ten, he knew much more about the spacecraft from outside the solar system than I did."

Yang Yi was dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.

"Of course, ten years is enough to convince me that in the upcoming changes, I am only a supporting role, and your father is the dazzling protagonist."
