“Over the years, the connection between the foreign DNA and my brain has become very strong. Severing that connection would mean providing the precursors with inactive DNA. This is our last attempt, and we can’t afford any mistakes. Look, there are still so many people working hard for this cause. As the initiator of the last plan, I must strive for perfection. What could this little pain do to me?”
“Alright.”
James Wright nodded.
At this point, there were only 310,000 people left in the base. Every step that took place in this operating room and the embryo room next door had countless people working tirelessly behind it. Colleagues were reaching the end of their lives, one by one, unable to bear the strain on their bodies or souls any longer, collapsing dead at their posts.
“James.”
Lila Brown spoke again.
“I’m here.”
“I love you.”
“I know.”
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
“But I stayed, not just because I love you.”
“I know.”
Lila was silent for a few seconds, then asked softly, “What do you think it takes for a person to truly live?”
James pondered, “Set a seemingly unattainable goal for yourself and strive for it all your life. Whether you succeed or fail, you might leave some traces of yourself in the universe. That’s probably what it means to truly live.”
“Do you think the foreign DNA inside me counts as a life? Is she alive too?”
“She has been dead for many years, but in a way, she is still alive.”
“Yes, it’s amazing. Who would have thought that a segment of human DNA could exist in the universe for eight hundred years, reproducing countless generations? Hela, it’s such an incredible life.”
The foreign DNA within Lila that could proliferate and divide indefinitely was Haila Cells.
Haila Cells represented another extreme of human genes, giving up the characteristics of intelligent life on the genetic level, and striding towards another kind of eternal life.
This was immortality in the chemical sense.
Lila went on, “A philosopher once said that great people never die; as long as there is someone in the world who remembers them and thinks of them from time to time, they will live forever in the universe. I didn’t originally believe that statement.”
James Wright: “But the precursors have shown us that it’s true.”
“Yes. James, do you think we can be remembered by the world like the precursors someday?”
“We definitely will.”
“I always fantasize about the fame after my death. Am I narrow-minded? Am I childish?”
“Everyone’s reasons for striving and sacrificing are different; motivation does not determine a person’s stature.”
“You really know what to say. I wonder why I never noticed this before.”
“That’s because we were both too busy to ever sit down and have a proper conversation.”
Two lines of tears finally fell on James’s face.
The tears of light speed were stretched out, very long, very long.
“If there is a chance after the precursors’ heartbeat is restored, apologize on my behalf to everyone. I always said you had ulterior motives, but I myself… never… really… got… better…”
Lila’s voice became quieter and quieter.
She finally closed her eyes.
All the foreign DNA in her body had been extracted.
Her body had turned a dark color.
Her skin had lost its luster.
Her face bore a faint smile and a lingering trace of guilt.
She was gone.
James tilted his head back slightly, unable to speak.
He knew she had used an open scheme to “kidnap” many people who should have left onto the warship.
But James also knew that Lila was using her character to make up for his own personality flaws and to help him complete his mission flawlessly.
