After purchasing some supplies, Su Zheyan was about to leave the town before the night market starts.
When they walked to the main street where several alphas were playing football.
The noises outside attracted Chu Shici’s attention. He poked his head out of his pocket to see what happened.
Before he could see clearly, Su Zheyan pushed his head back. Only when they came out of the city did SU Zheyan release him.
Chu Shici raised his head and asked him, “Yan-ge? What happened just now?”
Su Zheyan kept silent with a cold face, he looked to be in a bad mood.
The system spoke tremblingly, [I can see clearly, those alphas are kicking human heads.]
‘I’m not surprised at all. ‘
[The problem is that the head looks the same as the previous Deputy General Liu.]
‘Which Deputy General Liu? ‘
[Deputy General Liu, who came to persuade Su Zheyan to change his gender a few days ago, he has a pattern on half of his head, which looked like it was branded on it with a soldering iron. ]
The system thought: [A snake wrapped around an apple is exactly the same as the anti-counterfeiting logo on your body. ]
After the surprise, Chu Shici somewhat understood Su Zheyan’s feelings at this time. His old comrade-in-arms had his head chopped off, he must…
Thinking of this, Chu Shici suddenly realised something was wrong.
After getting along for so long, he also got to know Su Zheyan a little bit. This person just looks cold, but he is actually a person who values relationships. He wouldn’t watch his teammate’s remains being ruined by alphas, even if they had quarrelled about gender change before.
Maybe I’m wrong, he thought. Perhaps I should look at it from another perspective.
Chu Shici felt a chill down his back, and he asked hesitantly, “Tong-ge, didn’t Deputy General Liu return to the empire with the army a long time ago, why do you think he appeared alone in the Desolate Star?”
[There are also pieces of clothing on the ground, which look like the fabric of a black suit. Zuo Ting’s bodyguard who stopped you this morning was wearing this kind of uniform. ]
“The one who died was a person with Eternal Life Technology? Deputy General Liu’s ranking is not low, when did he become a henchman of Eternal Life Technology… Wait, is that really Deputy General Liu?”
The more he discussed the system, the more outrageous Chu Shici felt.
He got out of his pocket: “Yan-ge, in the alley this morning, you told me that after the clones were wiped out, Eternal Life Technology produced another batch. What are the identities of the new batch of clones?”
Su Zheyan glanced at the little robot from the corner of his eye, and said in a cold tone, “I don’t know.”
Chu Shici knew that he was in a bad mood and didn’t mind his tone.
“Is Eternal Life Technology secretly cloning the high-ranking generals of the empire, trying to quietly take away military power?”
Su Zheyan ignored him, and Chu Shici thought for a while, “Or are they not only cloning the generals, but also cloning all the high-level officials in the empire who have the right to speak, in order to steal and replace?”
Su Zheyan sighed softly: “You can’t find the answer here. You’re asking these questions…was it because you saw the head?”
Chu Shici nodded: “Isn’t that your Deputy General?”
“He is a clone. Imperial law requires that all clones must have the Garden of Eden icon imprinted on their heads. The imprinting process is strictly controlled, and the imprint cannot be removed by any means, ensuring that clones will never have the opportunity to counterfeit the real body.”
Chu Shici hissed.
If it is printed on the body, the skin can be cut out, or the limb can be amputated. But if the head is printed with a pattern, and the only way to hide it is to cut off the head. When Su Zheyan heard about the clone riots before, he wanted to ask how to distinguish clones from real people, but he didn’t expect the methods to be so brutal.
Chu Shici sympathised with the clones.
With such an ugly mark, it is destined not to be able to live like a normal person. To have thoughts and a body, but to live like domestic animals. In the past, such people were called slaves, but now slaves have a new name: clones.
Su Zheyan was silent for a long time and hesitated before saying: “There are a lot of new batches of clones, including clones of every gender. I don’t know what they want to do. I don’t want to mention this matter again, and you shouldn’t talk about it in the future.”
It happened that Chu Shici didn’t want to mention it either, this matter of human cloning was too dark to think about, and it affected his mood.
This agreement between the two lasted only a few hours.
That night, as usual, Su Zheyan took a shower and then wiped the robot clean.
They sat in the small but cosy capsule, eating and listening to the radio to relieve boredom.
Su Zheyan ate nutrient cream by himself, and bought top-quality motor oil for the robot. The new food was so delicious that Chu Shici’s mouth was full of oil.
The Empire’s taste in music is still so poor, Chu Shici changed several frequently tuned channels, and finally stopped on the Empire Night News.
The female anchor’s elegant and clear voice sounded in the capsule cabin.
[# Eternal Life Technology’s Desolate Star sector’s person-in-charge Mr. Zuo said that he has reached an agreement with General Su today. Under his persuasion, General Su changed his backward thinking and agreed to perform the beta-to-alpha operation. The operation will be carried out tomorrow, and our station also invited General Su today. #]
[# Hello General, you sternly refused to change your gender before, what changed your mind? Can you share your thoughts with other betas? #]
Su Zheyan put down the nutrition cream, frowned and looked at the antenna above the robot’s head. Chu Shici choked on the engine oil, yet he didn’t dare to cough, for fear of missing any information.
In the next second, a familiar cold male voice came from the speaker in the robot’s belly.
[# During the ancient earth period, the ABO will only be differentiated after adulthood. But in the interstellar era, gender is inherent and the time taken for differentiation is significantly reduced. It is a well-established fact in the Empire that each gender has different strengths. With the same training, alphas are more likely to become excellent fighters, scientists or even social elites. Omega’s talent in art surpasses that of other genders. More than 70% of the famous artists in the history of the empire are omegas. At the same time, they can combine with alphas to breed better offspring. #]
[# Betas are relatively mediocre, but the mediator between the two genders was once an important part of maintaining social stability. But times have changed, and the pheromone suppression vaccine developed by Eternal Life Technology has completely freed AO from the problem of being controlled by instinct. #]
[# The advantage once given to the gender of beta has been completely filled out by technology. #]
There was a cracking sound from the capsule cabin, Chu Shici heard the sound and saw that the spoon in Su Zheyan’s hand broke in two.
The “General Su” interviewed on the radio was still talking.
[# I used to be just like you and thought it was some kind of sexism. We are a disadvantaged group, envious of those social elites. Now I get it, the Empire never gave up on betas. The gap brought about by gender in the past seems so out of reach. But now we have the opportunity to change our origins and become any gender we aspire to. #]
[# I chose to become an alpha because I love this country and I want to better defend the motherland. Fellow betas, don’t be misled by hostile forces. Gender change is like plastic surgery, we can make our appearance more perfect through surgery. Since it’s all about making yourself better, why resist it? #]
Chu Shici was dumbfounded.
Su Zheyan stretched out his hand to pinch his antenna, but Chu Shici shrank his head, fearing that he would break the antenna if he became too angry.
After this piece of news ended, Su Zheyan’s face turned red with anger.
“Cloning me privately, trying to replace me without marking me as a clone, I’d be okay with all of that. But how could he use my face to say such things.”
Chu Shici thought of a possibility, “How many famous betas does the empire have?”
“Besides me, there are two more, but when Deputy General Liu persuaded me earlier, he said that they have agreed to change genders.”
Chu Shici suddenly understood why the empire wanted to play the emotion card with Su Zheyan.
Betas respect and admire their compatriots, as they are equivalent to their spiritual leaders when they have a common enemy. They are the ones who lead other betas to believe they have a future and that they are no worse than anyone else.
Now the last leader also believes that betas should be eliminated. How long can those betas who are oppressed and discriminated against by society last?
