Chapter 221: Humanity’s Purge Plan?
Galactic Calendar 9395.
Mars, Utopia City, Household Registration Office.
“Mr. Ma, identity verification passed. Please go back and prepare. The latest flight takes off at 9 a.m. tomorrow returning to Great Xia on Blue Star.”
“Thanks.”
Ma Wei knew the girl in front of him; she was the nurse who had once given him anti-aging treatment. He hadn’t expected her to have become a Household Registration Office worker now.
He thanked her repeatedly and retreated from the hall under her inexplicably pitying gaze.
Outside, his friend Jing Cheng was anxiously waiting for him.
Seeing this stubble-faced man, Ma Wei couldn’t help but shake his head inwardly.
Although both of them were no longer young, because of their Utopia City status, the workers here had basically all received Great Xia’s two anti-aging treatments, so they now looked about middle-aged. There was really no need to make himself look like a little old man.
However, thinking about his friend’s current impoverished life, Ma Wei couldn’t help but sigh.
“Don’t worry, I asked for you.
The staff said in principle it’s possible, but the prerequisite is that it must be a married couple to enjoy the benefits brought by your status. Divorced won’t work.
But now there’s a problem that you need to consider yourself.”
Ma Wei didn’t keep him in suspense and explained the matter he had just asked about on Jing Cheng’s behalf.
Hearing this, Jing Cheng nodded repeatedly, saying expectantly, “What problem? I have no issue on my end.”
“Don’t worry, we’ll talk while walking.” He pointed to the bar not far away, which had basically become their regular hangout spot over these years.
After entering, they casually ordered a bottle of beer and sat in their usual fixed corner.
“Ma, tell me quickly. You know I have no mind for drinking right now.”
Jing Cheng’s scratching his head and ears appearance fell into Ma Wei’s eyes, immediately making him both annoyed and amused.
Over these years, most of his salary had been sent back to Blue Star for his ex-wife and daughter to spend.
But in Ma Wei’s impression, that mother and daughter pair had never proactively called Jing Cheng even once.
However, he was too lazy to say anything about it; after all, he’d said it countless times, but the other wouldn’t listen.
“It’s like this: currently, a extremely terrifying disease has broken out on Blue Star, and the only cure for this disease right now exists at Xinghai Laboratory. The awkward part is that this method is currently only in the experimental stage, still quite a ways from large-scale use.
And the side effect of this disease is extremely terrifying; the virus will erode the human brain, and even after cure, there’s a high chance of becoming a vegetable.
In response to this situation, Great Xia will open hibernation pods to all humanity for free.
Currently, the hibernation pod is an effective response and control measure. According to Great Xia’s intention, wait until the cure matures and can be used on a large scale, then thaw from the hibernation pods for treatment.”
As Ma Wei spoke, his own face showed some strangeness; he always felt there was something fishy about this.
But reality was that this horrific virus had indeed appeared on Blue Star and had already caused panic.
And at this time, although Great Xia had a way to treat it, it couldn’t be used on a large scale.
He certainly understood this point; after all, given Great Xia’s nature, they would definitely prioritize treating their own citizens first.
It’s just that.
Forget it; these matters had nothing to do with him.
For him now, the most important thing was returning to Great Xia household registration.
Once back in Great Xia household registration, the benefits were simply too many.
Nowadays on Blue Star, becoming Great Xia people had become the common pursuit goal of all humanity.
Various high welfare, free medical care, brainwave teaching technology, even legally registering a company in the space industry.
Most importantly, Xinghai had completely opened patent authorization to all Great Xia enterprises in terms of technology.
It could be said that as long as you have the brains, Xinghai’s civilian technology is yours to use.
And if operated normally according to Great Xia regulations, making a fortune would be all too easy.
However, Ma Wei nowadays actually wasn’t too concerned about making a fortune anymore.
On the contrary, he felt that this carefree life on Mars—rising with the sun and resting at sunset—was quite suitable for him.
Sure enough, even after so many years, Jing Cheng still wasn’t willing to give up his Mars native identity, preferring to beg his long-divorced wife and children to come live on Mars.
He looked at Jing Cheng’s conflicted expression and found it quite surreal.
However, Ma Wei’s face then couldn’t help but show a self-mocking bitter smile.
Wasn’t he the same.
Blue Star, a small country in Europe.
Hiller sat in the villa, her eyes with emerging crow’s feet unavoidably showing an anxious expression.
Around the villa, a group of armed security personnel were similarly anxious, their faces tense as they waited for something.
Ding ling ling, the piercing telephone ring suddenly sounded at this moment.
Hiller grabbed the phone and directly answered it.
But the phone was silent, with only occasional breathing sounds proving that the call hadn’t been hung up.
“To be honest, I’d already forgotten about you.”
“This isn’t the time to talk about that. The situation on Blue Star is very bad for Ma Wei. Europe has fully descended into chaos. Everyone is trying every means to flee to Great Xia, but you know, without Great Xia identity, the final result is being sent into a hibernation pod.”
“Yes, but I think Great Xia’s action won’t harm your interests. As far as I know, even the former United States president, Mr. Mark, is now living in a hibernation pod.”
Hearing this, Hiller frowned; she was very unaccustomed to Ma Wei’s questioning tone.
However, just as she said, now wasn’t the time to dwell on these things.
She took a deep breath, her ample chest heaving for a moment, then calmed down somewhat.
“But I don’t want to go into hibernation. You know, this involves billions of people…”
She didn’t say the latter words; she knew Ma Wei would understand her meaning.
Clearly, Ma Wei knew; the phone then fell into a bout of silence.
“Alright, I agree. Handle the rest yourself. Contact me when you need me.”
Hearing this, Hiller’s suspended heart finally relaxed.
A smile finally appeared on her impeccably maintained face.
The hibernation project involving billions of people was too outrageous; she didn’t dare bet on Great Xia’s integrity.
As a woman who had lived very comfortably even after the United States disintegration chaos back then, she always liked to have everything in her own hands.
Thinking about it now, the connection she had casually left back then had unexpectedly saved her today, not letting her fall into passively entering a hibernation pod.
It must be known that Mark’s hibernation had a scheduled wake-up time.
Whereas for this large-scale hibernation plan, Great Xia had not announced when the thawing plan would be executed.
In her heart, an extremely terrifying term even emerged.
Humanity purge plan.
