Chapter 715 269: The Quantum Mayfly's Nightmare
Ren Zhong and Sun Miao were both well-versed individuals, but a newborn developing autonomous consciousness and learning to call "mom" and "dad," even if incorrectly, was still a bit too shocking.
Clearly, the fusion soul created using the Legion Beast's thought information as the structure and the memory fragments of one hundred thousand people from the Demon Infant as the flesh had triggered some unexpected changes.
As the two were bewildered and shocked, something even more miraculous occurred.
Sun Ai simultaneously raised both fists towards Sun Miao, "Mama, hug."
Since she had just been born and couldn't open her five fingers, otherwise Ren Zhong suspected she could make this hug-requesting gesture even more naturally.
Truly, no one taught her these things; she was born knowing them.
Sun Miao's face was filled with resistance.
After a long pause, he spat out two words, "Damn it!"
Ren Zhong nudged his shoulder, "Don't swear in front of the child, have some manners."
Sun Miao sighed, bending down to pick up the child.
Sun Ai blinked her eyes, looked at Ren Zhong, then at Sun Miao, showing a satisfied smile.
At that moment, a figure wearing a loose hospital gown also appeared at the doorway.
Although the wound had been stitched, the figure, named Ying, was not in good shape, looking very pale.
Seeing this, Sun Miao let out a long breath and quickly carried Sun Ai forward.
Ying lowered her head, lovingly gazing at Sun Ai.
Sun Miao pondered and said, "This is your mother, and I... I'm your father."
"Ah?" Sun Ai seemed somewhat puzzled, reluctantly craning her neck to glance at Ren Zhong from afar, then at Ying beside her.
She murmured, "But I feel a blood connection with him too!"
Ren Zhong: "Uh..."
He leaned over, forcefully explaining, "Yes, this is your father, this is your mother. I... I'm your uncle."
"Oh oh oh!" Sun Ai became happy again, spreading her arms towards Ying.
No one taught her anything, but she fully understood every word.
Ying gently took her and said, "I've taken care of children before, let me do it."
Sun Miao shook his head, "No, I haven't measured her vital signs yet."
"Alright." Ying then placed Sun Ai back into the incubator.
Unexpectedly, the moment she let go, Sun Ai began to wail loudly.
Ying leaned forward, testingly saying, "Little Ai, wait a moment, daddy needs to check your health."
Ren Zhong and Sun Miao thought she wouldn't comply, but unexpectedly, she showed a contemplating expression, then nodded contentedly, "Oh oh! Okay, okay! After the check-up, I want to eat, hungry!"
Moments later, confirming Sun Ai's body was fine, Ying carried her back to the isolation room.
Outside, Ren Zhong frowned deeply, letting out a long sigh, "Brother Sun, where exactly did her genes come from?"
Sun Miao: "I extracted parts of your multi-iterated cancer cell's mutated gene fragments, mainly the telomere and telomerase segments. I also copied a small part from my own genes, and additionally fused genetic information from approximately one hundred thousand people from the Mengdu Group's experimental lab database, crafting it piece by piece."
Ren Zhong, astonished, said, "Why use the genes of so many people?"
Sun Miao: "I used the privileges of Mengdu Group's R&D headquarters to steal part of the computational power from the Source Star's supercomputing center, performing massive calculations; this is the genetic information combination with the highest adaptability."
"Source Star's supercomputing center? Are you talking about 'the Net'?"
Sun Miao shook his head, "Not 'the Net', but a super large matrix-style computing hub established by the nine main corporations."
"I see."
Sun Miao: "I thought Sun Ai would be different, but now, seeing this situation... sigh, I'm a bit confused."
Ren Zhong shook his head, "Actually, I think it's alright."
"Huh?"
"I had captured many images within the Demon Infant's data stream, which were the memories of different people, distributed across various life stages. Sun Ai possesses precisely these fragmented memories of a hundred thousand people, forcibly melded together. This constitutes her thoughts, her personality. She was born with this knowledge, logically and reasonably."
Sun Miao: "So, facing her is like facing a hundred thousand ancient people? This... well, this is quite awkward."
"Ethically speaking, you certainly qualify to be her father. Ying gave birth to her, so naturally, she qualifies to be her mother. As for me, the mutated parts of my cancer cells have little relevance to me in bioethics. So, barely being her uncle is also reasonable."
Sun Miao laughed, "Right. In any case, she's our child! I hope her cells can multiply infinitely, achieving immortality! I must figure out why the latter half of the telomere becomes meaningless with her help."
