The timeline zoomed towards the day when the R-Code Base was destroyed.
Memories flew by on fast-forward.
The base was full of fire. Wu Jin, who was 13 years old, looked out the window.
In the end, Wei Shi didn’t sneak out of the base according to Mao Dongqing’s plans, and he also didn’t sign the R-Code S-Class human-shaped weapon experiment contract, which was equivalent to giving up an endless supply of mind calming agents.
Wei Shi defected directly.
With two military supply vehicles that he’d taken over with a gun, he headed towards the most chaotic border of the Federation. A drillmaster behind him yelled and cursed, “Who said that Wei Shi was reliable and could go to Floating City for a mission? He killed the two spies in Floating City, and the one called Arjun threw in his lot with him. He collaborated from within with forces from outside––”
The genetic reproduction room.
Professor Alfaso lifted his glasses and looked at Wu Jin, “Do you hate him? The Shao Family has lost a lot of power, and the R-Code Base is about to be disbanded. If Wei Shi hadn’t mutinied, you would be Wei Shi’s scabbard by tomorrow based on the most appropriate matching priority.”
“He’s the one who suits you best. You’ve waited many years for him.”
Wu Jin shook his head, showing great respect for this professor who was addicted to academic learning and hostile toward R-Code’s high level supervisors, trying his best to grant shelter to the genetically modified.
Alfaso sighed, “From tomorrow on, the scabbard project will be transferred to the Federal Institute of Sciences”
“Matching swords with scabbards is something the Empire has been studying for nearly a hundred years.” Alfaso’s voice sounded old as he spoke about his own research project like he was telling a story, “The probability for matching is too slight. You can match with a wide range and can undo the lock for anyone, but Wei Shi only has one match.”
“If the chance is missed, there won’t be a second chance.”
Wu Jin thought about it, then grinned, “That’s true. If I don’t see him again, then I hope he can live a better life than me.”
Alfaso laughed.
Behind him, Wei Shi looked like a ghost wandering through his memories. He looked at Wu Jin as though wanting to engrave him firmly into the deepest part of his consciousness.
The timeline advanced further.
3014 – Shao Yu and Wu Jin unexpectedly failed to match. Alfaso sent Shao Yu away and exclaimed, “Are you trying to unlock the emotional lock or kill people in your mind? You skipped the fusion period and wanted Little Witch to unlock the lock for you? Did you think that your father is still around and can still protect you?!”
3015 – Shao Yu rebelled.
3017, 3018.
In the consciousness communication link, Arjun was going crazy, “Brother Wei, it’s been six hours and thirty minutes. Brother Wei, you should come out...”
Researcher Song had long given up communicating with Wei Shi. The technician was extremely angry. Not only did he not try to persuade Wei Shi, he even pulled Arjun outside. “Don’t bother with him. If he likes to watch movies, then just let him watch. It’s not a big deal if he doesn’t come out after six hours, there will just be some aftereffects. Heh heh heh.”
The summer of 3018.
Shao Yu took advantage of his title as an Imperial Marquis to expose to the Federal media that ‘the former president of XX University of Science and Technology, Professor Alfaso, presided over the R-Code human body genetic transformation experiment’, and public opinion was instantly provoked into general outrage.
