Simultaneous travel: City, infinite evolution

Chapter 126 Sharing Newcomer Chen Hong
Immediately after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Chen Hong launched an aid campaign to the Central Plains.

The main source of aid, of course, is viral serum.

According to Chen Hong's intelligence, the Central Plains did not suffer much loss in this global virus crisis.

Because the Umbrella Corporation didn't even have a few strongholds in the Central Plains.

They were immediately surrounded and handcuffed.

The Umbrella Corporation was unable to spread the virus within the Central Plains region.

Therefore, they simply strengthened border defenses to keep foreign populations out of the country.

They quickly assembled a team to study the virus serum.

Viral serum was quickly developed before the virus could travel through the air and reach the country's borders.

Although the serum was not as effective as Chen Hong's, it still contained the spread of the virus.

Therefore, it can be said that China has responded best to this virus crisis globally.

With Chen Hong's assistance this time, there were basically no major problems.

Other places suffered greatly, ravaged by the virus and experiencing a sharp decline in population.

What Chen Hong's Galactic Empire lacks most right now is population.

Therefore, Chen Hong took advantage of the opportunity to provide the Central Plains with virus serum and began cooperating with the Central Plains authorities.

They offered favorable conditions to attract people from the Central Plains.

Not only did they have free rides on large ships and planes along the way, but upon arrival at their destination, they were also provided with unified work arrangements.

Excellent salary, weekends off, and full insurance coverage.

Housing will be provided uniformly, with no rent required.

If you have excellent work performance, you'll even get a wife.

If you're selected for the Galaxy Group and remain loyal, you'll get free evolution serum.

To gain superpowers and a lifespan of several hundred years.

The benefits are absolutely top-notch.

Such a huge temptation.

The migrant workers in the Central Plains all thought he was a fraudster.

It's the same trick as in southern Myanmar: they lure people there to get kidneys and then subject them to all sorts of torture.

For a time, not many people were willing to sign up.

But there are always those unfortunate people who can't make ends meet, willing to risk their lives and sign up.

In the end, only a little over two thousand people boarded the large ships and airplanes and headed towards the other side of the ocean.

Chen Hong wasn't in a hurry. Once these people arrived and saw the real thing, he would naturally send word to his relatives and friends.

Once the news spread, countless people signed up.

Chen Hong wasn't worried about having no one around.

Because there are too many people in the Central Plains.

There are so many jobs that there aren't enough for them to do, it's become a crisis.

There are plenty of people who are unhappy with their lives.

There aren't too many people who are driven to the point of wanting to commit suicide.

Countless others were willing to risk their lives for their future.

Once the population of the Central Plains increases, the Galactic Empire's foundation will be more stable.

Moreover, after taking control of the beautiful land, Chen Hong's army did not stop.

Instead, they took advantage of this period of turmoil to continue their actions.

Expanding territory to the surrounding areas.

Chen Hong's goal is to conquer at least the two continents of Pleasant State as his base.

By acquiring these two uniquely endowed continents, with their vast plains and abundant natural resources, their foundation would be secure.

In the near term, it can continue to radiate globally; in the medium term, it can develop vast marine resources; and in the long term, it can venture into space and explore extraterrestrial resources.

It can be said to be the foundation of the royal enterprise, with great prospects for prosperity.

But just then, Chen Hong received a message.

"Warning! Warning!"

"An asteroid is passing through the solar system and is about to approach Earth's orbit! It is about to approach Earth's orbit!"

Astronomical telescopes have observed the wreckage of an alien spacecraft.

"Unidentified life force fluctuations detected. Please take immediate action, Master."

"Warning, warning!"

"Unusual activity detected among astronauts on the space station! Unusual activity detected among astronauts on the space station!"

"Master, the space station personnel have acted without authorization and headed towards the asteroid."

The silly girl guessed that they wanted to explore the wreckage of an alien spaceship.

"Please take immediate action, master! Please take immediate action, master!"

Just as Chen Hong was startled and was about to go to space to see what was going on...

Suddenly, the world spun around.

We arrived at a vast, white space.

--------------

"Haha, everyone's here."

Armored Chen Hong laughed heartily, looking refreshed.

"Stop talking nonsense and share it first."

Magical Chen Hong was also getting impatient.

Everyone's hands were clasped together.

Sharing has begun.

A mysterious light of origin shone forth, and countless pieces of information were transmitted, exchanged, and replicated.

From body to soul, we resonate and harmonize, sharing with one another, until our origins are exactly the same.

After the sharing session ended, everyone showed excited expressions.

"Hahaha, Armor Chen Hong, you're amazing! You actually obtained the Five Elements Bloodline and summoned the Ultimate Emperor Armor."

He also created the "True Scripture of the Five Elements Revolving the Sun."

Chen Hong of the Dragon Clan was full of praise.

"Haha, Chen Hong of the Dragon Clan, you're not bad either, having obtained the complete authority and bloodline of Dragon King Norton."

He obtained the authority of the King of Bronze and Fire and copied all of Norton's alchemical knowledge.

Recycled metals, conceptual weaponry, cocooning technology.

They also unearthed five Words of Power from your bloodline. By the way, with your current Dragon King-level bloodline and authority, you should be able to use that world-destroying Word of Power, Candle Dragon, right?

Armored Chen Hong looked curiously at Dragon Clan Chen Hong.

“It is possible,” Chen Hong of the Dragon Clan nodded. “However, this incantation requires a long period of meditation and chanting, and is only suitable as a last resort.”

Otherwise, the chanting might be interrupted.

"Moreover, this power of words belongs to the Dragon King's ancient authority. You don't have the authority in other worlds, so you probably can't use it."

Furthermore, without a large amount of fire element in the world's environment, it wouldn't be usable.

"It's alright, we don't need this Word of Power." The armored figure shook its head indifferently.

“That’s right, nuclear weapons are also quite powerful,” Chen Hong, a biochemist, added.

"By the way, Chen Hong, you've created another bunch of monsters, haven't you?"

[Veronica Gu Ant Clan], [Dragon Insect Clan], [G Dragon Clan], [Gaia Clan], [Orc Legion], [C Tyrant], [Ouroboros Superman Legion].

It's like the end of the world.

"There's also the [C Virus Orc Evolution Serum] and the [Gaia Evolution Serum 1.0]," Chen Hong, the magical one, complained.

"This [Gaia Evolution Serum 1.0] is too abnormal, it actually incorporates the powerful genes of so many animals."

"Tardizus, wood frogs, sharks, crocodiles, Turritopsis dohrnii, volcanic snails, Madagascar banded tarantulas, king cobras, cheetahs, peregrine falcons, frigatebirds and Arctic terns, herring beetles, iron beetles, and chameleons."

Excellent gene fragments from 16 different organisms.

"But I really like this Mashima Shiraibu."

"This ability is truly formidable."

"It's so cool."

"And this Hercules Beetle gene, with its ability to lift itself 600 times its own weight, is quite impressive."

"This [Ironclad Beetle] gene can withstand 2 times its own pressure, that's even more amazing."

"The immortality gene of this [Turritopsis dohrnii] is quite good. It can continuously generate new life, and its theoretical lifespan is infinite."

Biochemistry Chen Hong smiled broadly at the praise, "Oh, not at all, Magical Chen Hong, you're just as good."

"They obtained the XE virus, learned the Samadhi Fire technique, and studied the Banana Leaf Fan."

Magic Chen Hong felt a little embarrassed, realizing that he had indeed gained less than expected.

This made Chen Hong, the Magical One, determined to go to the Journey to the West era to plunder next time.

Although there aren't many good things in the modern world of fantasy.

But there are too many treasures and opportunities in the Journey to the West era.

Just then, the shared space experienced an anomaly.

Ripples appeared in the white space.

Four figures emerged from the ripples.

"Are there new people here?"

Chen Hong's eyes lit up immediately, as if he had seen some great opportunity.

The four newcomers were a little confused when they first arrived, but suddenly, it was as if some kind of constraint had been broken.

Memories of my past life began to surface.

"So, I'm a time traveler."

"This is my second life."

The four newcomers all had expressions of sudden realization.

Looking at the people who looked exactly like him, he immediately made a guess.

"This is... the same-path flow?"

"Bingo! You got it right. Too bad there's no reward." Magic Chen Hong smiled.

"Alright, new couples, please introduce yourselves."

Chen Hong, one of the men, wore an expression of anticipation, as if he were watching a good show.

"Let me tell you first."

Chen Hong, dressed in tattered clothes and looking like a rough servant, sighed and began to recall.

"I grew up during the Republic of China era."

"Hearing this time, you must already have a bad feeling."

"Yes."

Before I awakened my memories of my past life, I was just an ordinary citizen.

"And in that hellish era of the Republic of China, what good life could ordinary people possibly have?"

My family has been tenant farmers for three generations, suffering from layers of exploitation by the government, and then we were hit by natural disasters.

Left with no other choice, my father took my whole family and fled the famine.

"During the escape from famine, we ran out of money and food."

They ate tree bark, pulled up grass roots, and ate cockroaches—they ate everything edible.

"Wherever the fleeing famine caravans passed, the surrounding area within a hundred miles was turned into barren land!"

"We can't even find a single rat; we're practically desperate for money."

“Even the government doesn’t welcome us. Not only do they not provide disaster relief, but they also send soldiers to drive us away.”

"We have no choice, we are starving, and many people have resorted to cannibalism."

"Many people even sold their sons and daughters, selling their beautiful daughters cheaply to wealthy families as maids."

All they got in return was 30 jin of yellowish, murky brown rice.

Strong men were sold cheaply to wealthy families as long-term laborers or male servants, and in return they only received 50 catties of coarse rice.

Even so, I still have to kneel down and thank them.

Thank you for taking me in and giving me a way to survive.

Moreover, they don't want girls who aren't beautiful, healthy teenagers, or young, pretty women.

They only want women who are beautiful, fertile, and capable of working; they don't want anything else—they'll just be left to die.

"My parents sold me to a wealthy family as a lowly slave, the kind of contract that stipulated I would be a slave for life."

"My parents found a way for me to make a living."

But he had no other way to survive, so he could only eat clay and die a gluttonous death.

"I watched them eat the clay, their faces beaming with satisfaction, before they were taken away."

"I will never forget the smiles they gave me before I left."

"A face full of deep wrinkles, old and frail, facing the loess soil with his back to the sky."

It looks so much like that portrait in "Father," with clay still stuck to his lips.
