Chapter 715: Is This Human Progress or Disaster

After the call was connected, Tang Huai directly questioned, "Ally, were the 89 explosions on Mountain No. 52 caused by you and Xin Yu?"

Xia Qing...

"You're really not enough of a friend! You actually hid such a big thing from me! Let's not talk about the past, what about this time? Xin Yu and I are both your allies; why did you take her and not me? Is it possible she is also a strength evolver?"

Xia Qing, holding a machete, inquired calmly, "Speak directly if you have something to say."

Tang Huai knew Xia Qing's temper, chuckled twice, and stopped beating around the bush, "I want to exchange for Xin Yu's meteorite iron to forge a set of black knives like yours. Can you help me ask her if it can be exchanged? Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, I will give the formula for healthy dog food to you. Don't worry, the quality is absolutely guaranteed, because I used to raise wolfhounds too."

"Good, I'll ask her for you." Xia Qing also knows how to blacksmith and knows how much iron material is needed to forge a set of black knives for non-strength evolvers, "Thirty-five is definitely enough."

"Can." Xin Yu agreed readily, "Let him exchange with live green-light mealworms, delivered in installments."

Xia Qing reminded Tang Huai to mind his limits, "We are a farming alliance, not a combat team."

People who go to the ruins continent to find new materials and transport them back for sale are called "Great Disaster Gold Diggers."

The abnormal evolution of Blue Star marine life led to the cutting off of long-distance sea transport. The cost of gold diggers searching for and transporting materials from the Blue Star land plate where China is located to the ruins continent is very high, so the selling price of the materials brought back is also not low.

There are many types of new materials, and their uses are still being developed. Some new materials have no application value now, but after a year or two, researchers discover their uses, and their value will soar. Therefore, the behavior of people buying materials transported back by gold diggers is jokingly called "gambling on stones."

Gambling on stones during the Great Disaster years is still a game that only the rich can participate in.

The meteorite iron Huo Lei used to forge black knives for Xia Qing should not have been very valuable when purchased, but now he has forged black knives of excellent quality with this meteorite iron, and that batch of meteorite iron of the same material has appreciated accordingly.

Obviously, Xin Yu bought quite a bit of meteorite iron of the same material and can make a big profit.

The bird lover earned points, and of course, she wants to improve the quality of life for her birds. She chose the installment delivery method also to let her birds eat fresh food.

Xia Qing inquired, "Are you going to talk to Tang Huai directly?"

"No need. If he agrees to the exchange, Uncle Ping will contact him." Xin Yu doesn't like dealing with outsiders; in this territory, except for the emotionally stable Xia Qing, she doesn't want to bother with anyone, including Zhang San.

Because Zhang San's brain is very active, and being close to Zhang San makes Xin Yu feel uncomfortable.

After eating a comfortable barbecue, Xin Yu sent the organized wild paulownia data to Xia Qing, and she wasn't in a hurry to go back, lying on the lounge chair and talking to Xia Qing about the major events that happened recently.

"Do you still remember what I told you about Yu Wenfei's miscarriage?"

"I remember." In January this year, when Xin Yu's cousin Yu Wenfei was seven months pregnant, she "accidentally" miscarried. At that time, Xin Yu guessed that her fetus was induced to be used as a "medicine primer" to stimulate the evolution of the Yu family's abilities.

Xin Yu looked at the ceiling blackened by smoke, her eyes unfocused, "Last time Yu Dongming came over, I took advantage of his good mood to ask about Yu Wenfei's situation. Although he wore an impeccable sadness on his face, his magnetic field fluctuations were very excited and agitated."

Xia Qing, who was lying on the sofa, turned her head and looked at Xin Yu.

Xia Qing's emotions were stable as always, which made Xin Yu's brain feel very comfortable, "Yesterday, the latest news sent by my eyes and ears in Hui-2: The research of the Chonglian Life Science Laboratory has made a major breakthrough. You know the use of umbilical cord blood, right?"

Xia Qing's more than half a year of hard study was not wasted, "Umbilical cord blood contains hematopoietic stem cells that can rebuild the human hematopoietic and immune system. Through hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, it can treat many blood diseases. Can umbilical cord blood really stimulate evolution? I think the possibility is not high."

"The possibility of umbilical cord blood stimulating evolution is much higher than eating the meat of close relatives and inputting the blood of close relatives." Xin Yu's tone was heavy, "Just this month, Chonglian, under the banner of high-end, encouraged female evolvers in the group to marry and conceive the next generation. One of the incentive policies is that after female evolvers in the group become pregnant, all expenses from pregnancy check to delivery are allocated by the group."

Xia Qing understood, "The condition is that they must undergo examination and delivery in Chonglian Hospital, right? Only then can Chonglian's Life Science Laboratory look at their placentas and obtain umbilical cord blood. Do they think that inputting non-blood-related umbilical cord blood can also stimulate evolution?"

"It is still in the early experimental stage, and verifying this point requires a large number of human experiments. Next, many women of childbearing age who lack their own strength and protection, including ordinary people and evolvers, will fall into becoming tools for manufacturing umbilical cord blood. Once the experiment is successful, this kind of evolution-ability inducer made from umbilical cord blood will definitely sell for a sky-high price."

The combination of ordinary women and evolved men may give birth to infants with evolutionary abilities, but the proportion is a notch lower than the combination of two evolvers giving birth to infants with evolutionary abilities.

Xin Yu turned to Xia Qing, her face carrying a fragility and confusion that she never revealed in front of outsiders, "Xia Qing, is this human progress or disaster? Does Brother Three know, and what is his attitude?" ===== CHAPTER 716 =====

"I remember." In January of this year, Xin Yu's cousin Yu Wenfei had an "accidental" miscarriage when she was seven months pregnant. At the time, Xin Yu guessed that her fetus was induced, used as a "drug primer" to catalyze the evolution abilities of the Yu family.

Xin Yu looked at the ceiling blackened by smoke, her eyes unfocused, "Last time Yu Dongming came over, I took advantage of his good mood to ask about Yu Wenfei's situation. Although he wore an impeccable look of sadness, his magnetic field fluctuations were very excited and agitated."

Xia Qing, lying on the sofa, turned her head to look at Xin Yu.

Xia Qing's emotions were as stable as ever, which made Xin Yu's brain feel very comfortable, "Yesterday, I received the latest news sent by my mole in Hui two: the research at the Chong Lian Life Science Laboratory has made a major breakthrough. You know the use of umbilical cord blood, right?"

Xia Qing's more than half a year of hard study was not a waste of time, "Umbilical cord blood contains hematopoietic stem cells that can rebuild the human body's hematopoietic and immune systems. Through hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, it can treat various blood diseases. Can umbilical cord blood really catalyze evolution? I don't think the possibility is high."

"The possibility of umbilical cord blood catalyzing evolution is much higher than eating the meat of close relatives or inputting the blood of close relatives." Xin Yu's tone was grave, "Just at the beginning of this month, Chong Lian, under the banner of high-end ideals, encouraged female evolvers in the group to marry and bear the next generation. One of the incentive policies is that after female evolvers in the group become pregnant, all expenses from pregnancy checkups to delivery are covered by the group."

Xia Qing understood, "The condition is that they must have their checkups and delivery at Chong Lian Hospital, right? That way, Chong Lian's Life Science Laboratory can look at their placentas and obtain umbilical cord blood. Do they really think that inputting non-blood-related umbilical cord blood can also catalyze evolution abilities?"

"It's still in the early stages of experimentation, and verifying this point requires a large number of human experiments. Next, many women of childbearing age who lack their own strength and have no protection from forces, including ordinary people and evolvers, will fall into becoming tools for producing umbilical cord blood. Once the experiment is successful, this evolution ability inducer made from umbilical cord blood will definitely sell for a sky-high price."

The combination of ordinary women and male evolvers may produce infants with evolution abilities, but the proportion is a cut lower than that of infants born from the combination of two evolvers.

Xin Yu turned to Xia Qing, her face carrying a fragility and confusion never revealed in front of outsiders, "Xia Qing, is this human progress or a disaster? Does Sange know? What is his attitude?"
