Chapter 1280

You've been hoping I'd disappear long ago, haven't you?

Yang Qing pointed at his nose and loudly scolded him.

Yang Fan saw he had angered his father and hurried to placate him.

Dad, what are you saying? Mom said half a year ago you'd fallen unconscious again; who knew you'd wake up.

You woke up, and you didn't even say a word.

Like this, I'll immediately contact my mom and the others.

First settle the bodily matter, then we'll talk.

Wait a moment, I have important business; now I demand you, immediately, stop the demolition of Yunxiao.

Yunxiao's Machine Room must run permanently until it can no longer run on its own.

Also, the Yunxiao Machine Room will no longer accept any business; let it run freely, no one may interfere.

Demolish the Machine Room?

Yang Fan was a bit confused.

Yang Qing saw him still standing there dazed, and his temper flared again.

Why aren't you going? What are you doing standing here dazed?

Is it that my words don't work anymore?

Only then did Yang Fan react.

Dad, don't rush, I'll have them stop right away.

This must have been done by those kids; I really don't know about this.

Yang Fan immediately contacted the people from the Yang Family Office, and quickly ascertained the truth of the matter.

Indeed, after the Yunxiao Machine Room had been vacant for half a year, it received the task of updating and replacing.

They also had no ill intent; it's just that those old pieces of equipment really have no value left.

After giving the instructions, Yang Fan hurried to report to Yang Qing.

Dad, the matter is settled.

The matter settled, Yang Qing lost interest in continuing to mess around with him and just wanted to leave.

Alright, then I'm leaving.

Yang Fan hurriedly stopped him.

Dad, don't rush off; I still have something to tell you.

Yang Qing, hearing there was something, stopped.

What matter?

Yang Fan pulled up some data.

Dad, look, this is a substance we extracted from the zombie virus; it can reactivate the nervous system's activity.

At the very least, it can extend the brain's lifespan by fifty years.

Do you want it?

Upon hearing this, Yang Qing realized it was again about increasing his lifespan.

I don't want it.

That's enough; can we stop tormenting ourselves?

I've had enough; if we keep going, it'll become torture.

Can you let me go?

Actually, what I miss most is those days.

Now technology is advanced, life is affluent, but we lack the vigor and spirit of those years.

As for current life, I have nothing worth lingering for.

Let's just leave it like that; stop tormenting me and let me go, okay?

Yang Fan was getting a bit anxious.

Dad, what are you thinking? Wouldn't it be good to stay with us? We have this technology; why must we give it up?

Yang Qing knocked his head in the air.

Live, live, live, all you know is to live; do you understand metabolism?

Human wealth is limited; if people live long, wealth will only become more concentrated.

Someday it will inevitably cause a huge conflict, and the Yang Family will surely become a thorn in others' flesh.

The Yang Family already has tens of thousands of people; the resources they consume have long become astronomical figures.

If they were to live even longer, just think what kind of outcome that would be.

People should be content.

Yang Fan hasn't not thought about it, but longevity is inevitable; future immortality is also not impossible.

Dad, others can do it, why can't we? Moreover, this technology isn't lacking in popularization value; on the contrary, because of the misty regions, the cost isn't high.

Although it can't cover a hundred percent, covering thirty percent is still doable.

By then, when everyone enjoys life extension, Dad, could it be that only our Yang Family refuses to accept it?

The matter of longevity is indeed a trend.

But it's not for use on Lanxing; it's for use in outer space.

Developing outer space demands a high lifespan; otherwise, a trip to Mars would take half a year, and the return trip would take over a year.

Added together, that's two to three years.

Without sufficient lifespan, efficiency will be much lower when developing outer space.

Especially when we want to leave Taiyangxi, going to the nearest star system could take several decades.

Without sufficient lifespan, it is difficult to sustain such interstellar crossing.

Longevity is valuable.

But not for use now.

Moreover, longevity technology is indeed good, but people are not more capable the older they get; on the contrary, the older they are, the weaker their ability to create value, and the more social resources they waste.

I hope you consider this matter carefully.

Do not push forward blindly.

Don't ruin yourself before you even leave Lanxing.

All right, I won't talk to you anymore; I just woke up and still need to familiarize myself with the environment.

After saying that, Yang Qing vanished with a swoosh.

In cultivation terms, he performed a great time-space escape and fled.

Upon returning to the Yunxiao Machine Room again, the people who were supposed to demolish the machine room have begun to retreat.

At the same time, a large number of personnel surged in, beginning to maintain the machine room.

Seeing the danger eliminated, Yang Qing also did not stay in the machine room.

He rushed into the virtual world and discovered that several more zombie worlds had appeared.

This world is still very lively.

Yang Qing casually picked one and dove in.

After entering, he went into a residential building, and the task immediately appeared.

【Please find the infected among the 26 households within half an hour.】

【If the first mission fails, please protect yourself and try to save as many people as possible within 12 hours.】

【Within 12 hours, the cleanup team will arrive; please distinguish between the real and fake cleanup teams.】

Crazy Zombie Werewolf Kill?

This game is quite interesting in design and also has strong training significance.

The zombie virus is no longer a secret; it has already spread worldwide.

Humans must now learn the ability to coexist with the zombie virus.

Even in the future, various viruses and mutant species will invade.

Maintaining vigilance is the most basic survival ability.

Half an hour later, Yang Qing entered another game.

《Search for Parasites》

【Please confirm within one day that you are not infected with parasites.】

【After confirming you are not infected with parasites, take precautions and look for companions.】

【After forming your own team, find a way to deal with the parasites.】

This game is used to simulate a newly emerged parasite disaster.

Peaceful Lanxing has now plunged into dire straits again, but the war is no longer between humans; it is between humans and the cataclysm of the Mist Region.

As long as the Mist Region does not disappear, this war will not cease.

Why not directly eliminate the Mist Region?

Because the entire Lanxing has reached a consensus: humanity needs a whetstone, and for now the Mist Region is the best choice.

Many of the Yang Family's measures against the Mist Region are currently quite effective.

They have also considered eliminating the Mist Region.

But they ultimately encountered difficulties.

First, the cost of clearing radiation is extremely high, and current humanity cannot bear this cost.

Second, violent means will only gain a temporary advantage, but soon the opponent will make a comeback, and most importantly, casualties will be high.
