I painted an aircraft carrier on the courtyard house for Dongda University.

When it was the child's turn to have blood drawn, the little guy was stung by the needle and burst into tears. He writhed and cried his heart out.

Nannan quickly stopped what she was doing, took a shiny lollipop out of her pocket, held it to the child's mouth, and coaxed softly, "Good boy/girl, don't cry, don't cry. I'll give you candy after the blood is drawn. It's sweet and delicious."

She coaxed the child while quickly drawing blood, then gently rubbed the child's arm with tender and skillful movements.

The child stared at the candy, her crying gradually subsided, and she licked the candy obediently, leaning against her sister's chest.

Nannan took the two collected blood samples, walked quickly to the operating table, injected the blood into two transparent culture dishes, added a few drops of special reagent, and gently shook them.

Then, she carefully placed the two petri dishes into the transparent cloning sphere that was floating nearby. The cloning sphere instantly lit up with a pale purple light, firmly enveloping the petri dishes.

"Brother, sister, let's go to the observation room; we can see much better from there."

As she spoke, Nannan took the lead and walked towards the glass observation room next to her. Zhou Weiguo nodded, signaling the woman to follow. The woman, carrying the child, followed inside with a mixture of curiosity and nervousness, her eyes fixed on the cloning sphere.

Through the observation window, the three could clearly see the changes inside the cloning sphere: a tiny drop of blood in the petri dish, nourished by the purple light, rapidly expanded and spread, gradually condensing into a small cluster of cells. The cell cluster then continuously divided and multiplied, slowly growing limbs, torso, and head. The body outline was visibly formed, and it grew rapidly in the light, quickly shedding its infantile appearance and transforming into the age the woman longed for.

The woman stood in front of the observation window, her eyes wide open, her face filled with disbelief and shock, her hands tightly covering her mouth, as if afraid she would cry out.

She watched as two figures gradually took shape inside the cloning sphere, one of which looked exactly like her. Shock, confusion, and an indescribable thrill surged through her heart.

But the shock didn't last long. The woman began to feel that something was wrong. The clone's growth rate was too strange, and the oppressive feeling of being enveloped in purple light made her feel a strange unease.

She glanced at Zhou Weiguo beside her out of the corner of her eye and saw that he was also staring at the cloning sphere with curiosity. She felt a little relieved and continued to stare intently at the observation window, her eyes fixed on the two rapidly forming figures.

In just a few minutes, the two figures inside the cloning sphere had fully grown: a woman who looked to be about twenty years old had a tall and straight figure, a beautiful face, and clear and innocent eyes, having shed the fatigue and injuries of her original self.

The eighteen-year-old girl's features were exactly like her sister's, with a touch of youthful innocence and liveliness, and she exuded a healthy vigor. Both of them radiated a vibrant life force.

The woman stared at the clone inside her body, a figure identical to herself and her sister. Her finger trembled as she pointed to the observation window, then abruptly pointed to herself, her voice stammering with excitement and disbelief: "This...this...how is this possible? She looks exactly like me...like me!"

Standing to the side, Nannan clapped her hands with a smile and reassured her in a lighthearted tone, "Don't worry, sister! During the training, I already readjusted your and little sister's genes. Not only were all viruses completely eliminated, but these two bodies were also optimized to their best condition. They are absolutely the healthiest, strongest, and smartest. You won't have to worry about getting sick anymore."

She paused, then continued explaining the subsequent procedures: "Next, we'll proceed with memory extraction and transplantation. I'll set the system to automatically block out those painful and heartbreaking memories, retaining only the others. I'll also enhance your cognitive abilities and supplement them with memories that are appropriate for your new identity. As for the little sister, her original memories are too weak, so I'll extract some of your happy memories to fill her in. When you both wake up, you'll think you've always been a pair of carefree, inseparable sisters."

The woman listened in a daze. Although she only had a vague understanding of the principles of memory transplantation, the thought of being able to completely get rid of the nightmares of the past and give her sister a stable life made her nod vigorously, her eyes full of relief and anticipation.

Seeing this, Nannan led the group to the two pieces of equipment next to the observation room. The equipment was silver-white and looked like an enlarged version of an MRI machine. The door was open, and the inside was glowing with a soft white light.

"Sister, you can take your little sister and let them lie down in the beds. They won't feel uncomfortable at all."

"Nannan gestured." The woman held the child and carefully placed her younger sister into one of the equipment compartments, then lay down in the other herself. The compartment door slowly closed, a faint golden light flashed, and the two inside instantly became unresponsive, their breathing steady as they fell into a deep sleep.

Nannan turned to Zhou Weiguo and reported earnestly, "Brother, I have put them into a deep hibernation state. Once the clones are successfully activated, their original bodies can be cryopreserved for future use."

Zhou Weiguo nodded slightly and said in a deep voice, "Then let's begin."

Nannan suddenly blinked, and asked with a hint of excitement, "By the way, brother, there's something else I want to ask you. What type of Red Alert unit are you planning to activate these two clones into?"

Zhou Weiguo was taken aback, his face showing obvious surprise: "There are different types of options? What are they?"

Yes, there are!

The little girl counted on her fingers, "Common units include spies, regular soldiers, snipers, and engineers—these are functional units. But there's also a random activation type. If you're willing to spend 2 energy points, I can try activating the random mode. Random activation not only has the chance to get high-tier units, but also a chance to unlock brand-new hero units!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Weiguo's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately nodded and replied, "Then let's activate it randomly! It's just 2 energy points, it's not a big deal."

He was already looking forward to the unknown hero units, and with his current energy reserves, 2 points was well within his means, so there was no need to worry about ordinary units.

The little girl smiled, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons, and replied in a clear, cheerful voice, "Okay, brother!"

He then strode to the control panel, his fingertips rapidly tapping across the panel covered with light and shadow buttons. A series of complex commands were instantly input into the system, and dense parameters immediately appeared on the instrument screen, its body glowing with a faint blue light.

A moment later, Nannan pressed the final confirmation button and shouted, "Start the random activation process!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the two devices that resembled MRI machines suddenly shone brightly, and dazzling white light burst out from the cabin. At the same time, the two clone spheres in the observation room also lit up with brilliant white light, and two beams of light shot straight to the top of the barracks, illuminating the entire space.

Within the white light, the two figures inside the cloning sphere were gradually enveloped by the halo, their auras began to fluctuate violently, and their originally stable outlines began to ripple, as if they were undergoing their final transformation.

Zhou Weiguo stared intently at the cloned ball, his heart filled with anticipation, his gaze fixed on every detail.

Not long after, a crisp system notification sounded in his mind:

"Ding dong! Congratulations, host, you have successfully unlocked the Red Alert hero unit, Yuri...."

P.S.: Please urge me to update more and give me good reviews. Thank you!
